**Shin Jia** (신지아), known as **Himeno Yui** (ヒメノ・ユイ) in the Japanese localization, is a Counter and the current CEO of Alphatrix Innovation. A natural prodigy, she is in truth an artificial human created by the late President of the Alphatrix Group as part of the Singularity Project.

## Summary

### Collection Profile

* Base
* Awakened (Singularity)

*Shin Jia, the leader of the Alphatrix Innovation, is an attacker who fights alongside realistic illusions she summons.*
*As the granddaughter of the Alphatrix Group's CEO, she revealed her genius at a young age. But as time passed, her ability to easily complete any tasks in any field earned her avoidance instead of praise. Unfortunately, her talent was not effective when it came to socializing with people.*

*She was forced to enter TASKFORCE industry during the feud over the company that occurred after her grandfather's death. Jia's siblings must have wanted her to die in the Counterside, but unfortunately for them, she is still demonstrating her brilliance in fighting against in the Corrupted Objects.*

*Singularity Shin Jia is a Supporter who uses CRF particles to neutralize and simultaneously grant buffs to allies.*
*She has limitless potential and the ability to manifest matter based on her imagination. Some speculate that this is the result of the human species reaching singularity. However, because she is inherently flawed, her humanity dwindles the more she uses her power, and there is a risk that she will become an inorganic being. Perhaps this is why her pursuit of humanity may have taken the form of imaginary wings. She is the most righteous result of one's twisted fear, and she is still fighting for a better world today.*
## Abilities

### Powers

* **Enhanced physiology:** As with all Counters, Shin Jia has enhanced physical strength and durability as well as some innate resistance to Corruption rays.
* **Natural talent:** Naturally, Jia is highly-skilled at many things even without prior experience. Among her many feats include being wining three chess games in a row against one of the world's best chess players (her aunt), carrying multiple stacks of heavy materials, and swiftly taking down enemies much bigger and stronger than her.
* **AR cloning:** Using an augmented reality device, Jia can create indistinguishable holographic clones of herself and whatever equipment (besides the device itself) she has on her.
* **Matter manifestation:** In her Singularity form, Jia can create any material or substance just with her imagination, whether it be weapon augments or ammunition.
* **Levitation:** In her Singularity form, Jia is capable of low-level levitation.

### Equipment

* **Balance Breaker:** An proprietary assault rifle specially designed for Jia. It uses special anti-Counter ALP-001 bullets but can be loaded with regular rounds as well.
* **Augmented reality device:** A device that creates holographic duplicates of its subject (see above).

### Weakenesses

Jia's augmented reality device can be disrupted using AR jammers, preventing her from creating holographic clones of herself. Every time she takes on her Singularity form and uses her wings, Jia loses some of her humanity.

Before achieving her Singularity form, Jia was genetically programmed she that she could mind-controlled whenever her grandfather uttered the phrase "for a better world" followed by a command. To permanently free herself from control, Jia imagined her grandfather give permission to unleash wings using the trigger phrase.

## Personality

Shin Jia is a bubbly and altruistic woman who's constantly working to make the world a better place. As taught by her late grandfather, she believes that everyone should be treated like family and is always seeking out to help out people who are in need. However, Jia's selflessness can sometimes reach to absurd levels and unwittingly lead her to disregard the situations of people she isn't helping at the moment, including her own. For example, in an attempt to make new friends, Jia (via her AR clone) provided Maya Hunt with explosives purely for the latter's enjoyment and was harshly scolded by the Frontier for encouraging Maya's recklessness. Another time, Jia offered her own personal credit card to Lee Jin so that she could pay to repair Alphatrix Innovation's offices. She's also willing to directly assist those who are serving punishments even if they are being disciplined for things they did to her or her company.

While she would never knowingly attacks or disrespects people, Jia can come off as insensitive because she fails to understand how others think or interprets their behavior incorrectly; one time, she called Xiao Lin small as a harmless comment and thought Lin wanted to stay short as it was beneficial for her as a sniper, much to Lin's annoyance. Furthermore, Jia usually does not realize how unnaturally gifted she is and often gets puzzled when she sees people struggle do things she can easily do.

Jia's absolute commitment to help out people is the result of being created to think that way— her grandfather, the late President of the Alphatrix Group, mentally programmed to be obedient to him on command during her initial creation and later repeatedly instructed her to only use her powers to assist those in need. Even after her grandfather's death, Jia continued to abide by his words, advice and instructions so strongly that she practically developed no desires of her own; she always based her decisions on what she thought her grandfather would've wanted her to do. It was not until her date with the Machine G.A.P. did she start to question her lifestyle when the latter asked her what she personally wanted to do. During her final confrontation with the Gambler, Jia freed herself from her mental programming and declared she will stop relying on her grandfather's influence to make decisions and work to improve the world on her own volition. Nonetheless, she still acknowledges his teachings and remains committed to living up to his dream as they were noble.
