It is time to be awesome

"A letter has arrived for you young master." said my butler.

"A letter?" I reply while taking my sight away from the book and towards the letter my butler is holding in his hand. "Who sent it?"

"I do not know. It says it is an invitation and the sender is by 'Rail Zeppelin', however I have not heard about anyone called Rail Zepelin so I am not sure who it could be."

"Hmm, I have yet to hear abo-" suddenly I freeze. "Did you say Rail Zeppelin?"

"Yes I did young master. Why? Do you know who he is?"

"Not a he... but a what. Let me see the letter." I say with an urging tone.

As I open it, I look at the beautiful calligraphy employed, but pay no actual attention to it.

"You are invited to the re-opening of the train... special auction... mystic eyes." as I read, slowly muttering some words in disbelief, I feel my eyes widen. From everything I have read about Mystic Eyes, I have barely managed to find more than hints about them, hints... and a name. The only location that sells Mystic Eyes, yet it is impossible to find.

"I received an invitation to participate in an auction!" I exclaim with a wide smile on my face. They send invitations to people interested in Mystic Eyes, or at least that is what I managed to understand. "Buy some plane tickets to Frankfurt and start packing, we are going to participate in an auction so bring my money as well."

Seven days later, I am in a train, sitting on a chair while watching the person in front of me auction different eyes. I am not the only one here of course, but the rest don't really care about each other. Seems like they are all here to buy just like me.

"This is a pair of Mystic Eyes of Distortion. the previous owner of this beautiful pair of red eyes was able to destroy an entire house with them, if you train properly, you might even be able to surpass her!"

Immediately, offers start rising.

I need that pair of eyes. I have only managed to get information about three Mystic Eyes, the Mystic Eyes of Distortion, the Mystic Eyes of Binding, and the Mystic Eyes of Balor. The Mystic Eyes of Balor were merely a legend, but the other two are very much real and I absolutely want the distortion ones. Medusa's eyes are also Mystic Eyes if I am not mistaken, but whatever, can't really focus on that now.

"500 thousand euros!" I say. It doesn't matter what the others offer, I will be taking these pair with me today. I had to ask mom for a lot of money and while she was confused, she didn't actually care since I only ever ask for money to do experiments. Add to the money she gave me the money I have saved and I have enough to not worry about anyone else getting them.

"600 thousand euros!" says a woman.

"700 thousand euros!" I say.

"800 thousand euros!" says a man.

Damn it! I will get those eyes okey?! "1 million euros!" I exclaim.

I left the train two days later, 1 million and 250 thousand euros poorer but one pair of Mystic Eyes richer... damn Danzo would be proud.

"You seem... happy with your purchase, young master."

"Of course I am." I reply with a smile.

.

"You came both sooner and later than I expected in my script." said the blonde pale man in front of me.

"Pleasure to see you again director, it is good that you are in good health and maintain your pedop- I mean upright image." I reply while doing a polite bow.

"Heh, not many talk to me like that... actually non, those who could are too weird for it." he says with an amused smile.

"Sigh, tell me about it. It feels like anybody who is a somebody is weird as f*ck."

"You should mind your language, while I may not care, it would be bad if you got stuck with it. But I do agree, I feel like I have been surrounded by weirdos for the last five centuries. Anyway I suppose you finally came to ask about Mystic Eyes right?"

"Sigh, I guess it would be more surprising if you hadn't noticed my... investigations." I say.

"Well yes, I am the director of Atlas after all." he replies with a smile. "So, what do you want?"

"I would like to ask you for your research in the nerves of the eyes and brain." I say.

"Interesting... and you expect me to give you the research I have spent a lifetime doing?" he asked, both amused and slightly offended.

"Not really, all I want is the information relevant to Mystic Eyes and Artificial Mystic Eyes." I start explaining. "In exchange I will give you both of my transmutation circles with explanations on how to use them. You can sell them, keep them, burn them, whatever you want." heh that's right, I still haven't sold them and honestly this is the perfect chance to gain the most out of it.

Besides it won't be truly useful since it uses an entirely different 'magic' system than the one from this world. Even if he were to understand them, it would take him decades, perhaps even centuries. The only reason I managed to do it was because I had a large part of the knowledge already and knew how the result was because of the anime. While I had to simply find a value in an equation while knowing the result already, he will have to find every single value knowing only the result and a part of the structure of the equation.

"Very well!" he says slightly excitedly. He had asked me about it a couple of times since he was one of the first to view my transmutation circles when mom showed them a few years ago. Since then he had been interested in the strange system I used, perhaps because he has lived a very long live, or so the rumours go, but he gets quite exited about new alchemies.

*Snap*

*Boom!*

*Snap*

*Boom!*

*Snap*

*Boom!*

*Cough* *Cough*

A sudden fake cough interrupts my fire alchemy practise.

"You mother has sent a servant to tell you that the preparations are ready young master."

I smile crazily hearing this.

"Well then, come with me. I will have an operation done with her and you will wait outside. It will most likely take long so feel free to bring a chair for yourself or something. Also, have some apple juice on standby, it will be important for afterwards." I tell him while still smiling.

"Very well master, I will bring a chair and apple juice then." he replies with a smile.

"I will be depending on you more than usual for a while after this, so be prepared." I say.

"It will be my honour, young master."

Damn he is the best butler ever, honestly Alfred would be his bitch at this point.

As we make our way to mom's lab, I can't help but feel extremely nervous. I will fulfil the dream of every weeb to ever exist and get myself a pair of op eyes. Heh, bet Danzo is feeling really jealous right now. I got eyes without having to plan the extermination of a clan for over a decade.

"Stay here." I say looking at my butler.

"Very well young master, I wish you good luck during your operation." he replies with a small smile.

"Thanks." I mutter while entering mom's lab. The maid that had been guiding us stays outside with my butler and simply points me in the direction she is.

"Are you ready?" says my mom while looking at me.

"Of course. Who are them?" I ask, pointing at the rest of the people in the room.

"My assistants, I may be among the best, but not even I can actually perform this without help." she says. "Now get on the bed and calm down, we all have to use both anaesthesia and sleeping magic in little quantities to not mess up the reactions of your nervous system or your magic circuits so having you calm will make this simpler."

"Sigh, let's just get this over with." I say while resting on the bed.

She continued making making the preparations and proceeded to get two jars and putting them on a table next to the bed.

"Are those..."

"Yes, your new eyes. The process is not exactly what you might be expecting, we won't take your eyes out, rather we will fuse this into them." she explained while inserting a needle connected to the anaesthesia into my arm.

"I see...*Yawn* then I hope..." before I could finish speaking, I felt my consciousness vanish and everything turned black.
