33 – Devil 1

Defensive Matrix with Ireadedit.

It has been 4 days since I studied the so-called ‘Plasma Mana Shield’.

From Thursday to Sunday, the research has been conducted non-stop.

“done!”

And I was able to complete the technique in just 4 days.

This is because I received the help of Fix while actively using my abilities.

“Fix! Good work!”

“Ugh~!”

‘Fix’, which was obtained as an accessory skill when hand skills rose to level 3

Thanks to this versatile robot arm, work efficiency has increased to an unbelievable level.

He did research even when I was gone, and he played a supporting role even when I was developing myself, so I was able to work several times more efficiently than before.

If there was no fix, making a ‘Plasma Mana Shield’ in 4 days would not have been a dream.

To show my appreciation, I patted Pix on the head a couple of times and switched between the suit and the plasma shield.

Now it’s time to implant the newly developed technology into the suit.

“first of all·····.”

So, I put the three mana stones set to maintain the ratio of 1:3.45:6.74, ‘Plasma Generating Mana Stone’, ‘Emission Mana Stone’, and ‘Form Preservation Mana Stone’ into the black steel case I made in advance. put in

Then, the black steel case was inserted into the groove at the top of the suit.

click-.

There was a pleasant attachment sound, and the suit and case became one body.

Now it’s time to connect the fiber to power the steel case.

“Optical fiber…”

“Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong~”

As I looked around for an optical fiber, Fix brought it up on the table and held it out to me.

After stroking the noble guy’s head once, he connected the end of the fiber optic to the steel case, and then connected the other end to the power source of the suit.

This completes the setting.

“great. Let’s try an experiment now.”

Now that the suit and case are connected, it’s time to experiment to see if it works.

I wore a suit with multiple alloys partially attached to the latex material.

This suit didn’t have the ability to transform form like the gauntlet I was wearing, so I had to wear it myself.

Since it is still under development, we decided to implement functions such as form conversion later.

“Hmm…”

Wearing a suit, I stood in front of the mirror and checked my appearance.

However, the latex-based suit I was wearing was a translucent color that had not been colored yet, so my body was partially visible.

Of course, about 70% of the suit was covered with gray alloy, so there was no misfortune where the whole body was reflected, but it still looked visually embarrassing.

The alloy was also a basic gray color, so it had a flat taste.

It’s because I didn’t care about the design or color part because I thought only about the function.

“Hmm… What color should I use?”

So I started to worry.

What color should I paint it with?

The colors that immediately came to mind were red and gold.

A man’s romance Iron Man!

But I’m not trying to be a hero like Tony Stark.

The reason I wear this suit is because I want to protect this world against future disasters.

The motif that suddenly came to mind was Batman.

Because Batman is a character who wants to protect Gotham City from infested criminals.

‘Bruce Wayne wanted to be the personification of fear that criminals fear. So I decided to become the bat he feared.’

Batman had a fear of bats.

It was because on the day when I accidentally fell into a puddle while playing with a friend and experienced bats flocking to me, my parents were killed on the way out from watching a performance with my parents.

From that day on, the bat became a symbol of fear to Bruce Wayne.

It became a catalyst that reminded me of painful memories.

‘But Bruce Wayne overcame that trauma. And he became Batman, the symbol of the bat, and was reborn as a hero protecting Gotham City.’

Bruce Wayne, who recalled his childhood whenever he saw a bat and suffered from self-loathing.

However, by accepting that fear, he became a dark knight protecting Gotham City, and eventually became a hero protecting Gotham City.

The symbol of the trauma that tormented him became the symbol of the hero who protects Gotham City.

‘My fear…’

So I thought.

Inspired by Bruce Wayne’s narrative, what do I fear and what do I want to overcome?

The answer was so self-evident.

“The end of this world.”

What I’m afraid of.

The ending of this game, which had no choice but to meet the end even after re-challenging the game dozens of times.

And the ancient demons who gave me the end every time.

…I’m afraid of them.

The world is gradually crumbling as the characters and heroines around them fall one by one at their hands.

Empires split apart, kingdoms corrupted, and the entire human race was destroyed by their unfathomable power and fear. I am afraid to the bone.

Even now, I poured everything in, but in the end, the futility of staring at the monitor blankly, sighing in despair, is still clear.

“…”

But if someone hears my monologue, they might ask:

It’s just a game, but is it something to be so immersed in and afraid of?

Anyway, the world you are in is a fictional world in a game.

“…”

. . Yes, that is a clear fact.

I just played a fictional world created by screenwriters and programmers, and I may be the only gamer who has regrets because I couldn’t reach the desired ending of the product.

But now this place has become my reality.

James, who was just a blacksmith NPC at the academy, was a father who did his best for his son so that he would not feel the vacancy of his bereaved wife. was

Not only that, but also Elena, Isabella, the princess, Claire, Lucas, and at least several extras and dwarfs that I hadn’t known before.

All of them had new aspects that I did not know about, and they are alive and breathing here where I exist.

‘Edgar Fix’ has become a precious part of daily life that I want to keep.

“······Devil.”

So, I decided to become the one I feared.

It was decided to become one of the “primordial evils” that all humans would fear in the near future.

But the devil I want to be will be different from other devils.

The demon I aim for is a symbol of fear to humans, and not an object to be feared—

“A demon who punishes demons.”

That’s right, a demon who punishes demons.

I will become a demon worse than the devil, and a symbol of punishing evil.

It’s time for the primeval evils to feel how fearsome a human with power and technology can be if they harbor malice.

“Devil.”

So, I decided to name the suit ‘Devil’.

It is to show the enemy why the human being is nicknamed ‘Fuck Gang’ by putting my sincerity in this suit.

As much as they do, I will reign as absolute evil.

“Devil 1”

And the first start is this suit.

A clumsy suit that still only has the ‘Plasma Mana Shield’ function.

From now on, the name of this suit is ‘Devil One’.

“…”

However, it was embarrassing to call it Devil One because of the visuals showing flesh color everywhere.

I immediately took off my suit and started painting with a special spray.

First of all, I painted everything in black, which can be said to be the symbolic color of the devil.

“Um… let’s do this for now.”

I decided to leave the places where mana stones were embedded in places that emit blue light.

Rather than being all black, I think this gives off an atmosphere.

After a while, I put on the suit and stood in front of the mirror again.

“·····Well. Not bad.”

It’s not a completely satisfactory design yet, but I decided to do this for now.

Right now, it’s more important to add functionality than design.

“Now… are there only three-dimensional maneuvers left?”

Right now I have propulsion, but only vertical flight.

This means that the ability to fly freely has not been fully implemented.

Therefore, a three-dimensional maneuvering device is needed now.

After hitting a feature with a wire fired from the suit, I pull myself by winding the wire.

In addition, you can fly at low altitude with the help of a propellant.

“the problem is····”

The problem is that the wire is too inconvenient.

So, in order to perform a three-dimensional maneuver, you have to launch a wire, insert it into a feature, then wind the wire again to pull your body, but the front part of the wire plugged into the feature often falls off.

Conversely, there are cases where the wire is not retrieved because it is fixed too tightly.

As a result, instead of performing a three-dimensional maneuver, I pulled my body and the wire came loose and I fell to the ground, and the front part of the wire was so firmly embedded in a feature that it could not be retrieved properly, resulting in an unfortunate accident that the three-dimensional maneuver stopped.

So, like Spider-Man, I need a wire that has excellent adhesive strength and can freely bend the string, but where is it…?

“····uh?”

Wait, Spider-Man?

Come to think of it, why didn’t I think of that?

There are super spiders like Spider-Man in this world too.

A super spider, ‘Ungoliant’, spews webs that are excellent in both tension and adhesion.

The gauntlet must have been repaired to some extent, how about collecting Ungoliant spider webs to test the performance of the suit?

If I can apply the properties of the spider’s web to my wire, I will be able to realize the perfect three-dimensional maneuver I think.

“There is still time.”

I got up right away without wasting time.

I put the suit and gauntlet in my inventory and left the academy.

To get to Ungoliant, you have to go to the 3rd Danger Zone, so get out of the academy and walk for about 30 minutes to reach the ‘Imperial Exchange’.

***

“what is your name.”

An Imperial Exchange located in the center of the Empire.

This is a space where teleport magic orbs that can go anywhere in the empire are gathered.

In other words, from the territory of various noble families to various fortresses and dangerous areas with monsters, you can move in an instant through the magic orb in this exchange.

At the time when the academy dormitory was not activated yet, Enya and Isabella and other nobles were able to go to and from school because they all came from their own territory through the teleport magic orb in the exchange.

“Edgar Fix.”

However, the guard’s expression crumpled when he heard my name.

This is because it is a special space that can only be used by nobles, and only high-ranking nobles.

Swoop.

So I took out the nameplate Elena had issued to me.

The nameplate had the imperial family’s pattern engraved on it.

The guard’s expression, which had been freezing cold, suddenly changed.

“Woe, Her Highness the Princess…! Where do you want to go?”

“The third danger zone.”

“I will guide you!”

As I followed the guard into the large exchange center, a pretty guide greeted me.

The vibe of a department store receptionist was palpable in the way she politely bowed her head and smiled for service.

“You are a hero who is going on a journey to the 3rd Danger Zone, a dangerous place.”

After hearing my destination, the information staff smiled and flattered me.

Perhaps it was because he was dealing with a high-ranking aristocrat, each and every comment was a compliment to cheer me up.

In particular, compliments on my appearance did not fall out here either, and it was thrilling to hear that I was good-looking, like a famous celebrity said.

As I moved while listening to the guide staff’s praise, I arrived in front of the magic ball leading to the third danger zone.

“It was short, but it was an honor to meet you. Hoping for your safe return, I will activate the magic sphere of the third danger zone.”

Saying so, the guide began to blow mana into the magic sphere.

Read at readwn.com

Looking at the magic orb emitting blue light like hitting a fire bruise, I suddenly remembered a phrase I saw in a setting book, which was a short commentary on the guide working at the Imperial Exchange.

In other words, those selected to entertain high-ranking nobles are only ‘mana shuttles’ to activate teleport magic spheres, but working in the empire’s public institutions have high salaries, and sometimes their pretty looks catch the eyes of high-ranking nobles and become their concubines. do it

Anyway, while I was thinking such useless thoughts, the teleport magic sphere was activated.

If you put your hand on it, the setting is complete so that you can move it.

“The teleport magic sphere has been activated. Have a safe trip, nobleman.”

be noble

Saying that, wondering if I should pretend to be an aristocrat for no reason, I nodded indifferently and put my hand on the teleport magic sphere.

Then, pure white light enveloped me, and at the same time, the scenery around me changed in an instant.

It was the teleport exchange in the third danger zone.

“…”

As expected, the feeling was 180 degrees different from the exchange office in the capital.

Since it was an exchange located in a remote area, especially in a dangerous area, the facilities were in great disrepair and there were only two male employees.

In addition, the corpses of monsters scattered around were also visible.

Before long, the male employee who was sitting on an old chair chewing chewing gum opened his mouth.

“Well, if you came here to play some silly hero, you’d better just leave. I’m not the only one who has almost ruined my life trying to rescue nobles like you.”

As soon as he checked my face, the receptionist gave a bored look and muttered a sigh.

To be honest, he looked more like a prosecutor than a receptionist.

It is also a veteran prosecutor with considerable experience.

“hahahaha, Jennen, what kind of rude language is that to someone from the capital. hahahaha! that, sorry A son of an aristocrat came here a while ago, but he led a group of monsters and fled here, resulting in some casualties…”

“…”

“hahahaha, the expression is crude, but I am saying it because I am concerned about the safety of the nobleman. Let go of your anger.”

Another employee who was conscious of the words of the prosecutor-looking employee poured out various words with an embarrassing smile on me.

However, I responded by taking out the gauntlet from my inventory.

Paperweight!

“Nothing to worry about. There is no need to send a rescue signal.”

clap – clap. Charrr.

As I put on the bracelet, the gauntlet began to wrap around my right hand.

The gladiator and the bespectacled old man looked at me wide-eyed.

“I came prepared thoroughly. I’m not planning on catching such a strong monster.”

I said that and took the suit out of my inventory.

The tuk-chute fell to the floor.

“…”

After a moment of rest, I lowered my pants.

Because in order to put on a suit, you have to take off your clothes first.

However, the receptionist’s stare staring at me in panties was embarrassing, so he said as if tossing out a word.

“I’m going to change clothes.”

“·····Ah yes.”

The two of them turn their heads while clearing their throats.

This, I need to put the automatic mounting function in one day.

After all, the suit is life.
