I Became an Academy Mechanic Genius

152 – Take responsibility, Professor

It was an instant.

The Crucible’s highly concentrated energy penetrated Max’s neck.

But because of that fleeting moment, Max faced an irreversible fate.

Everything he had worked hard to build up collapsed in an instant.

“······Huh?”

At first, I didn’t understand why.

He was clearly in the middle of demonizing himself, but suddenly his vision flipped around and he fell to the floor.

Max hurriedly tried to get up.

But only his expression was crumpled, and there was no sense of power being transmitted.

Soon he became angry and started yelling.

“Ssivaaal! What, what! “Why do I feel it!!!”

Max screams without even knowing that his head has been lost.

At that time, he heard footsteps approaching him.

It was the unique mechanical sound that occurred when Ed’s suit moved.

Max, who felt fear, began to scream like a scream.

“Eh, Edgar Fix!!! W-what have you done! What have you done!! “f*ck you, you f*cking bastard!”

【It’s so noisy.】

However, Ed indifferently lifted Max by his hair.

The gaze that had been on the ground was raised to Ed’s height, allowing a clear view of the situation in the secret room.

“·····Huh?”

Then Max could see clearly.

His own body sprawled on the floor.

Despair began to appear on Max’s face.

【Once I finish demonizing it, it becomes a hassle. Especially at the archbishop level and above, the body of a complete devil is quite tiring.】

Ed said that and looked at Max’s collapsed body.

Although he fell, he was still turning into a demon and growing in size.

【Look. Even though his head was cut off, he’s still running wild like that. Maybe once demonization is complete, he’ll start rampaging until he runs out of energy? Because I lost the spirit to control my power.】

Ed said that while looking at the Max in his hand.

Then he struck the chestnut on his forehead and added the following words.

– Perfect!

“aaah!”

【You said earlier that you would show your true power, right? Okay, let’s take a look together. The sight of your body running wild.】

With those words, Ed walked towards the wall.

Then, he placed Max’s face in the center of the wall and fixed his face with the web shooter.

Ed said with a grin.

【Where is this motivation? Get all the first class seats like this.】

“Hey, this bastard…! “Once I get my body back, you—!”

– Perfect!

“aaah!”

【Then, I am enjoying the sights until the moment I die. I’ll be watching from upstairs.】

With those words, Ed went upstairs.

Then, after taking out a chair from his inventory and setting it up, he sat down in a spot with a good view.

Of course, with leftover popcorn in hand.

-Seueuugh·····.

And just in time.

Max’s body, which had completed its demonization, stood up.

And then it started crushing all living things around it.

The devil’s body, filled only with the desire for destruction, began to run rampant.

-Boom! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The first thing that Max’s headless body crushed were the believers lying around.

From noble mtl dot com

They have been practicing cannibalism with Max and longing for the devil’s body, so they are crushed like meatballs.

The internal organs were crushed, blood splattered everywhere, and the bones were shattered.

-Clap clap clap clap clap clap

At that time, applause was heard.

Ed, who was eating popcorn, applauds Max’s face in the center of the wall.

“Wow~ It’s amazing, isn’t it? I can’t believe you’ve been hiding this power all this time. To get to that level… You must have put in a lot of effort, right? “I admit it.”

Ed said that and put popcorn in his mouth.

Max roared in anger once again.

“You f*cking bastard! Come down, you bastard! “Get that mouth right now!”

-Boom!

But at that moment, Max’s body reacts to Max’s shouting.

Max’s body, which had been training the dead believers, began to approach Max.

Max, who was frightened, urgently shut his mouth and looked at his own body with bated breath.

“······.”

When the noise stops, Max’s body stops walking while approaching.

Soon, Max’s body returned to the place where the corpses were scattered and began crushing them.

Ed, who was watching the scene, smiled and said to Max.

“Hey~ Max. You did well to gain the power of the devil, right? Thanks to that, I was able to see such a rare scenery even after my head was cut off.”

“This… This, dog… Cub…”

“Then goodbye. “This is the last gift.”

Ed said that and threw a small device in the direction where Max was.

Soon, a song began to flow from the fallen device.

[Come closer. Come closer. Babe~ Come to me. Come to me My lady~♬]

-Boom!

And Max’s body, which was handling the believers’ bodies, began to react to this.

I started walking towards the place where I could hear the singing sound.

[Stay by my side just a little longer~ Don’t say anything~ Look at me. Look at me babe~♬ I wait only for you, my lady~♬]

“f*ck…What the f*ck…Is this…”

-Boom!

With such a cheerful rhythm of singing flowing out.

Max’s headless body stood right in front of him.

Max’s expression began to turn into fear.

The singing sound was still coming out of Ed’s small device.

[Tonight! Tonight~ I want you like this~♬]

-Boom! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

As soon as the chorus of the song ends, Max’s body starts punching Max in the face.

As soon as Ed saw the scene, he immediately turned around.

***

“·····That’s how it happened.”

4 Hours later.

Elena, who arrived at Sigmund’s estate to support Ed, nodded her head.

After listening to Ed’s explanation of everything, she understood the tragedy in the secret room.

“That sword certainly seems special. “I can’t believe you just cut off the skin with that much intensity.”

However, Elena was more interested in Ed’s Crucible than the tragedy in the secret room.

That’s because Max’s neck, which Ed cut off, boasts incredible hardness.

It’s almost as good as the Minotaur King.

“It’s a weapon exclusively for the Great Devil. If it had been any other monster, I wouldn’t have been able to cut it. “The ‘hell energy’ contained in this sword is fatal only to demons.”

Ed said that and turned off the Crucible.

The demonic energy faded away, leaving only the sword handle.

Elena nodded her head and answered.

“Okay. It’s reassuring to know that you’ve prepared such a weapon. “Excellent”

However, when Elena tried to compliment her by saying she was ‘amazing,’ she blurted out what she was saying.

Now that she and Ed found out that they had been colleagues in the distant past, the way he patted her head and praised her became strange.

Ed said with a grin.

“You can just do it. “I don’t remember anything anyway, so I’m just comfortable with this relationship.”

“····Is that okay?”

“Yes. In fact, this is more comfortable. “You were always my professor during those many sessions.”

Elena nodded her head at Ed’s words.

After that, there was an awkward silence for a while.

In times like this, it was always Elena who broke the silence first.

“But… I have a question.”

“····? “Which one?”

“They said it regressed dozens and hundreds of times. In all those episodes, you and I were just professor and student?”

“······.”

Ed looked back on his previous memories for a moment.

The early days of the game. No, in the early days of her return, Elena was her own lover.

They are passionate and affectionate lovers who are so clever that they have secret relationships throughout the academy.

“Uh… I guess so?”

However, Ed hid that fact.

I think it would be awkward if I revealed my past relationship in my current relationship.

More than anything, Elena is already a complete heroine and does not need her help.

Emotionally or whatever. Even without her own help, she was a powerful ally.

“·····I see.”

At this, Elena smiled bitterly and nodded her head.

It seemed like she wanted to say something, but she quickly brushed it off with a laugh and turned the topic to another topic.

“More than that, there is new information. As you said, the devil religion has already infiltrated every corner of the empire.”

Elena said so, took out her map and unfolded it.

It was a map that checked families suspected of being part of the Satanic Cult within the territory of the empire.

About 1/4 of the area was marked as a suspected satanic cult.

“As you said, I mainly investigated the nobles who recently started to keep you in check. “Half of them are definitely from the Devil Church.”

As Elena said this, she pointed out the noble families painted in dark colors.

They were the families of Counts Balzac, Heirden, and Kayla.

“····It’s those guys. “Those who insist that all my construction robots should be scrapped.”

And the Counts Balzac, Heirden, and Kayla were those who argued that the development of Ed’s domain should be restricted.

The logic is that commoners should not be allowed to use the ‘benefit of mana’ that is only available to nobles.

“No matter how much you talk about it, it won’t be of any use. “You are already a powerful figure in the empire.”

However, their voices did not have much strength.

Air conditioner, mosquito net, dreadnought, etc.

This is because Ed possesses all of the empire’s core technologies, and recently, with the invention of tractors and mining machines, it has become the empire’s largest mining, agricultural, and fishing production area.

“More than anything, the imperial family is on your side.”

And Ed was providing 20% of all economic profits to the imperial family.

I toured various countries with a dreadnought and said, ‘Brother, you guys are here. We are trying to introduce some good products, but we are also pioneering the market by saying, ‘Please open the door.’

As Ed brought enormous economic benefits, the imperial family cherished Ed.

In fact, his influence is such that it is safe to say that he is an archduke or even higher.

“Let’s wait and see. Until they make a mistake. “Once they are caught, all they have to do is send them away politically.”

However, Ed did not randomly exterminate the nobles who had joined the Satanic Cult.

If you make a big fuss, it is obvious that they, like insects, will crawl into the darkness.

So Ed did not announce the existence of the Devil Church to the outside world.

If the Empire officially cracks down on the Devil Cult, they will be more careful, and then there will be no reason to attack them.

“Is there any other news?”

Ed decided to wait a little longer and asked Elena for other news.

Then Elena looked worried for a moment, and then she carefully began to bring up the next topic.

“Hmm… “This is an ambiguous matter… But do you know what it is called ‘creble’?”

“······.”

Crabble.

As soon as Ed heard the name, he looked at Elena blankly.

Isn’t Cravel a revolutionary group that dreams of another world-style communism?

“Why Crable?”

However, it was too early for them to appear.

Isn’t it the time to secure funds by operating a ‘black market’?

“War clouds are hovering over the eastern kingdom of France. The number of commoners who argue that we must kill kings and nobles and establish a fair country in order to regain the rights of oppressed people is increasing. The organization that looks after them is ‘Crabble.'”

Cravel Revolutionary Group.

An egalitarian revolutionary group with similar results to the Donghak Peasant Movement.

However, the Cravel Revolutionary Group was not a group that could be contaminated by the Devil Church.

This is because, as a group with beliefs, ideals are more important than individual desires.

‘But the activity period is too fast.’

However, the ‘Great Revolution’ that overthrew the royal system of the Kingdom of France did not occur until four years from now.

It is too early for that to happen now.

There is external intervention.

“I guess I’ll have to find out about Crable myself. “It’s not a group that can be monitored just by attaching people to it.”

“···Okay.”

So Ed decided to investigate them himself.

We cannot neglect them as they could become powerful allies in the distant future.

***

“You need to create a department. Professor.”

Three days later, Ed’s professor’s office.

Currently, Ed was looking at the people lined up in front of him with his forehead resting on his head.

The 17 club members led by David and Anthony.

“·····So, you want me to create a Department of Magical Engineering?”

“Yes.”

And there was one reason why the club members gathered together.

This is to ask Ed to be appointed as the head professor along with the creation of the Department of Magical Engineering.

It’s not that they don’t, because that’s the only way for them to survive.

“Can you see the top of our heads? Take a look. “This is the professor’s work.”

First, to stimulate Ed’s guilt, they lowered their heads to 90 degrees and showed the top of their heads shining brightly.

“Ah!”

Ed, who was suddenly struck by this, covered his eyes and grimaced.

Soon, after firing a hair removal beam once, they straightened their backs again and spoke to Ed.

“We lost our heads because of the professor. Additionally, my grades plummeted to the bottom. I also received a bachelor’s warning! “If we end this year with these grades, we will be expelled for tarnishing the academy’s reputation!”

Ed nodded in response to their enthusiastic appeals.

As a result of forcing them to sleep for 3 hours a day and working hard, the club members’ academy grades plummeted.

“The professor is the one who made us like this. You made me throw away my hair, personality, and grades, and open my eyes to the joys of mechanical engineering and magical engineering. I can no longer live with this kind of mind and body. “Please let me work under the professor.”

Those who studied mechanical engineering and physics and suddenly became mentally divided.

Ed nodded repeatedly and fell asleep.

It certainly seemed like there was no one but him who could take those guys away.

“Are you serious about that? “You guys, you’re officially mine now?”

However, Ed finally asked about their sincerity.

If you create a department and put it under your control, you will be locked in your room day and night and do a lot of research.

“Anyway, if it’s not this way, we’re useless.”

However, those who lost their minds and went completely crazy decided to entrust their minds and bodies to Ed.

They decided to officially become slaves.

“Okay. I will accept you as students in the Department of Magical Engineering. “Let’s get along well until we become graduate students.”

“Thank you, Professor.”

“Okay, go out.”

From noble mtl dot com

Club members bow politely and then head out the door.

Anyway, Ed skimmed through the documents and focused on his work.

At least until the sound of their footsteps faded away in the hallway.

“Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk…”

And as their footsteps got further and further away, Ed began to laugh.

He even shook his shoulders and let out a malicious laugh.

“Mmmhehehehe… Mmmhehehe…”

He was shaking his shoulders and letting out a low laugh.

The footsteps of club members can no longer be heard in the hallway.

At this, Ed began to burst into laughter, as if letting out the breath he had been holding.

“Great! Under! Under! Under! Under! Under! Ha—!”

It was a cool red cow that resonated loudly.
