In certain franchises.
There is a mechanic known as the Mechanical God, Mechanic Empire, Mechanical Emperor, or commonly referred to as The Ancient One.
Countless people worshipped him as a mechanical god, making a religion for him, but their numbers were nothing compared to the mechanical army he created.
Even the protagonist of the franchise, who is also a mechanic by profession. It took 1000 chapters for the protagonist to actually be able to match the one called the "Mechanical Emperor".
The battle of the protagonist and the Mechanical Emperor is a battle of their mechanized armies whose numbers can cover a galaxy or more.
Both are mechanics, but because the protagonist is the protagonist. Of course...
The protagonist ultimately came out victorious in a fight that left everyone in the galaxy dumbfounded.
The protagonist slapped everyone who considered him inferior to the "Mechanical Emperor" with his victory against that person.
Put the protagonist aside.
Speaking of the Mechanical Emperor, the reward Eiji got this time was one of the Mechanical Emperor's abilities!
[Innate Machinery Soul]
According to the system description, this ability allows the user to have innate machiner talent and the understanding of machines increases according to the user's power level.
It's not a powerful ability, it's a super cheating ability that makes even the protagonist in the franchise envious and spit out a mouthful of blood at the sight of the Mechanical Emperor.
In the original work, unlike the protagonist who was helped by his golden finger called the system to become a mechanic that surpassed the Mechanical Emperor. The Mechanical Emperor used his own talent, this talent allowed him to become the best mechanic in the entire universe before the protagonist transmigrated and traveled 1000 chapters to slap him in the face.
The Mechanical Emperor is not actually a villain character, he is actually one of the main characters in the game that the protagonist transmigrates into.
The protagonist basically transmigrated in a game he once played. With future knowledge of its plot and systems, it goes without saying that it was only a matter of time before he surpassed everyone in that game.
He's the protagonist after all...
Glancing at the vending machine beside him, with just a glance, this time Eiji immediately understood how people made that thing.
This was because of the [Innate Machinery Soul] he had just obtained.
Taking out the D-Dial from his pocket, he also understood how Lala made a cell phone-like object with the help of this advanced feature.
If Eiji had previously been able to create advanced objects like the Virtual Capsule, with his current understanding of machinery, he could create something even crazier.
Forget artificial intelligence like Jarvis that Tony Stark created in the Marvel Universe. As long as there are materials and blueprints, Eiji believes he can create mechanical civilizations, mechanical armies, planets, and other things that smell mechanical easily.
The things the Mechanical Emperor did, he could also do. Unfortunately, he only has his talent, a mechanic needs materials and blueprints to create machines.
"Putting aside finding materials, I can make my own blueprints, it's just that what am I doing it for?"
Eiji finished his juice box and threw it into the trash without looking at the direction of the throw.
This was why he complained at the system for giving him this kind of reward. It was fine if he had plans to become mechanized like that protagonist and the Mechanical Emperor, but no, he himself was already very strong now.
Did he need a mechanized warrior to slaughter his enemies? Sure, he might need one if he was too lazy to move and also didn't want to send his beautiful subordinates to be cannon fodder.
"Let's think about that later. For now..."
Just as Eiji stood up and was about to return to the school grounds, he planned to watch Lala or the others who were participating in the sports competition.
But before he did that.
"Eiji Seiya."
The cute monotone voice made him turn his head to the left only to see a girl standing in a school uniform.
Her blonde hair was fluttering in the wind, her short skirt was also blowing in the wind... Eiji could see the girl's white panties and he looked at her without blinking.
The girl hurriedly held onto her skirt, there was a slight blush on her cheeks as she looked at him with her flat red eyes that also seemed angry.
[Hey it's not my fault. It's your fault for standing there and calling out to me! I didn't see it on purpose!]
[Let me guess, this girl will definitely attack me right away with her hair turned into golden fists.]
"Yami, calm down! I didn't see anything." Eiji raised his hand as if he was trying to restrain the girl's embarrassment from being impulsive.
Unlike the protagonist Rito who was ridiculous and his reaction immediately made people want to punch him in the face. Eiji of course had a way to ride this situation, he...
Boom!
"Lie, ecchi."
[Why are you still attacking me?! You're not playing the routine I had in mind!]
The routine you had in mind? Yami didn't understand what the boy was saying.
She pulled back her hair that she had turned into a golden fist. Unfortunately, the fist only hit the ground, the ground cracked, and the targeted boy jumped back a few meters.
"...."
"...."
Leaves falling from the trees flew as they stared at each other.
It had been almost a week since Yami transferred to Kuoh Gakuen.
She was a first year student, class 1-A.
During this time, she certainly hadn't forgotten about her mission, but since she still couldn't verify whether Eiji Seiya was the target she really had to kill or not, she still continued her monitoring of the boy.
"Yo Yami, you go to school here?"
Didn't work with his inner voice trick, Eiji tried to distract the girl by starting a conversation with her, but unfortunately it still didn't work.
"I'm here to monitor you, Eiji Seiya. You're my target, so of course, I won't let you go far from my sight."
"Well..."
This time many golden fists continued to be swung at him, Eiji easily avoided all the fists targeting his face. Suddenly the blonde girl appeared beside him and tried to kick him in the stomach, but he quickly caught her slender legs wrapped in stockings.
[Nice legs. It feels soft, yet these soft legs have enough strength to cut down a tree. And this girl wants to kick me in the stomach with her legs? I'm not the protagonist Rito, do you think I'll stand still when you want to hit me? Yami you seem to have forgotten how I beat you up last time!]
"!!!" Yami widened her eyes, for some reason she felt her face was a bit hot, she tried to release her legs from Eiji's grip, but she was unable to do so and just like in the battle that day, again her hair and all parts of her body lost the power to transform into weapons.
Yami saw Eiji smirking at her, she gasped and hurriedly covered her ass with her hands.
"Eiji Seiya, what do you want to do?" Although her tone was still monotone, there was a hint of fear and nervousness in it. Standing on one leg because her other leg was caught, her hand was also frantically clutching her short skirt.
"What do you think? You suddenly attacked me, how should I reply to you? By the way I remember you once said something about a truce, but what are you doing now?"
"T-That's... I, it's because you're a pervert!"
"I didn't see it on purpose."
"Ugh... Sorry, can you let go of me? Also, stop staring at my thighs, you pervert! Eiji Seiya, you ecchi! Ecchi!"
Yami, whose face was red and full of complaints, looked at Eiji and cursed in cute Japanese. In addition to holding her legs, Eiji also looked at her thighs which were currently exposed due to her current position.
Perverted! Otherwise, she didn't know what it was.
Eiji chuckled.
[This assassin is so cute.]
Yami wasn't sure, but she somehow felt happy to be called cute.
Her expressionless face turned red.
'Wh-What was I thinking?! Eiji Seiya, he's my target! I can't be fooled by his words, not even his inner voice!'
[Looking at her closely, I suddenly remembered a more mature version of Yami. That's not Yami, that woman has almost the same appearance as Yami, only she's bigger, cough.]
[What's her name? Tearju, Tearju Lunatique, a scientist who created Eve or Yami.]
"!!!" Yami froze, she was stunned to hear the name of the woman she used to think of as her mother, it made her ignore Eiji's hand that rubbed her leg.
[In the original work, I remember that soon that woman will also come to earth and become a teacher at school. Out of nowhere, that woman got the information that Yami was on this planet, so she immediately rushed here after finding out.]
[Her purpose is clear, she wants to meet Yami again, she wants to repair the relationship with Yami because in the past Yami had a misunderstanding about her.]
[Actually, in the past, Yami misunderstood Tearju which made her hate that beautiful mature woman. Too bad, Yami doesn't know that the things Tearju did in the past were...]
"...Eiji Seiya, continue."
"Continue what? Oh! Yami, you like having your legs rubbed by me? Of course why don't we sit down? I'll rub it more until you're satisfied!"
"You!"
What Yami meant was of course his inner voice, but she didn't expect Eiji to be using her The boy held her leg while pressing and rubbing it repeatedly.
"Let go of me right now!"
She pulled her leg hard to get out of Eiji's grip, she thought it would be difficult, but Eiji suddenly let go of her leg which made her almost fall.
Eiji raised his hand. "You said let go, so I let go."
"Eiji Seiya..."
For the first time, Yami felt really annoyed at someone! She didn't want to kill, she just wanted to punch the boy in front of her in the face, but she was afraid that the other party would catch her again.
Although she was also curious about the continuation of Eiji's inner voice, she was not in a hurry, she actually wanted to immediately contemplate what Eiji said in his heart.
In the end she snorted, and turned to leave.
"Yami, where are you going?"
"....."
Yami didn't answer, she used her teleportation ability to leave that place as soon as possible.
Seeing that the blonde girl had disappeared from his sight, Eiji shrugged.
"In the end, why did that girl greet me before? Yare-yare... This heroine is a bit strange, fortunately she's pretty, I don't mind playing with her a bit."
Unlike Utaha, Eiji didn't really reject Yami because that girl had been on his list for a long time.
What list? Well...
Put that aside. He deliberately told Yami some information that would make her curious. In the original work, he knew that when Yami was a child and still often called Eve, she lived with Tearju and their relationship was like mother and daughter.
They had a good relationship until the author's plot made people become too greedy for Eve, and because of her affection for Eve, Tearju thoughtlessly tried to make Eve escape, but unfortunately she was caught first by those people.
The people she was referring to were the scientists who collaborated on Tearju's "Eve" creation project in a secret laboratory on a certain planet. Unlike Tearju who repented after developing affection for Eve and said she no longer wanted to experiment on people. The other scientists still want to utilize Eve because they see Eve's tremendous potential to become a humanoid weapon.
In the end, Eve misunderstood that Tearju had abandoned her, she believed the words of those people that Tearju had sold her and left without saying anything to her.
From then on, as the author's plot unfolded, Eve was taken by those people and forced to train to become the emotionless killing machine she is now. But under the seduction of the inner voice and his shameless actions. What emotionless killing machine? Currently Yami is more emotional than the original work, she is cute assassin who is in the process of falling step by step.
¶{Host, condition your smile, you seem like a manipulative protagonist now.}
"Cough, almost." Eiji pretended to cough, he was a bit carried away and unknowingly his manipulative personality emerged.
He sighed.
Why is it so hard to hold back? But whatever, if it's just a little it should be fine, right? This was still in line as long as he refrained from provoking the other new heroes so that he could relax more.
What Eiji didn't know, even as he restrained himself, heroine like Utaha whom he had recently provoked was... and the blonde twintail girl, Eriri... There was also the protagonist Tomoya and other heroine.
Whatever happens in the future is quite interesting.
...
Afternoon.
After the Sports Festival at Kuoh Gakuen ended and the tired students walked home one by one while dragging their respective bodies through the school gate.
Eiji who did not participate in the event because he was busy playing with the heroines still knew some things that happened in the event. For example he knew that his class 2-B, the boys and girls group in the class managed to win all kinds of competitions in the event.
His class became the number one champion.
The people in his class were too strong.
Rito, don't ask. As the protagonist who has superpowers, how could he have trouble being number one in this event when Eiji didn't participate in the event.
Although Rito was rumored to have shouted Eiji's name several times on the field and asked him to compete with him in the competition. Unfortunately at that time Eiji was busy playing with heroine like Utaha and Yami, and even if he knew about this earlier, he had no interest in competing with the shounen protagonist who looked at him with fiery eyes.
Lala and the other heroines in his class, they also did well, the most difficult opponent they fought against was the third year class led by Rias. Everyone of course did not use their supernatural powers, they used raw physical power. Putting aside the other girls in his class, but Lala who had a Deviluke physique passed down directly from her father, Gid, the King of Deviluke and the Galaxy, her physical power alone could slaughter devils like Rias and Akeno.
Eiji even knew that if it wasn't for student council people like Sona who deliberately stopped the match between the two sides, the school field might have been blown up in the girls volleyball competition back then.
Horrible...
The heroines with supernatural powers are quite scary when they compete against each other.
After his girls returned to their respective homes, Eiji did not return home immediately. He was currently sitting inside the black Lamborghini parked not far in front of Ai Hoshino's apartment building.
That Idol girl, not long ago sent him a message that there was an unknown man who kept standing while watching her in front of her apartment building. At first the girl wanted to call him, but she was afraid that her voice would be heard because the man had entered the apartment and seemed to be walking around on the fourth floor of the apartment.
That was the floor where Ai's apartment room was located!
Eiji who first heard this news of course immediately rushed to the scene. Actually he wasn't too rushed because he had already seen this plot with his "Future Sight" this morning.
He was not surprised.
However, he did not immediately rush to the girl's apartment room even though he was now in front of the apartment building.
"Zeta, are you sure you cleaned up the person I mentioned a week ago?"
Eiji lowered his head slightly while stroking the snow-white hair and cat ears on his lap. After a few swallowing sounds were heard in the car, the girl in question raised her head, revealing her beautiful face that was cold yet looked dazzling with sweat that made some of her hair stick to her face.
There was a little white liquid at the corner of her lips which she immediately licked like a cat before saying. "I already did it Eiji-sama. If you doubt me, I can give you a recording of the process."
"Oh? You have it? Although I don't doubt my beautiful subordinates, let me see."
"...This is it, Eiji-sama."
Reaching into her jacket, Zeta put one of her hands into her jacket pocket exposing her voluptuous cleavage and handed him a cell phone.
"...." Closing the zipper of his pants under the gaze of Zeta who seemed a little reluctant, Eiji clicked the play button on Zeta's phone and the screen immediately displayed a blonde man with six-pointed star eyes similar to Ai Hoshino.
In the video, the man was kneeling with a pile of corpses of girls who had appeared as Idols on TV and staring at the camera with fear and nervousness on his face.
That man is none other than Hikaru Kamiki!
