The test was a resounding success. The gun was a beast. I made it too powerful. And now I need to adjust it. Adjust the power and deal with the recoil.
After receiving a healing sleep, cuddling, and a good snogging. The next day I was ready to go back to work.
First, some inner design changes.
Back to tinkering on the M.T.M, instead of just pressing the button and getting a bolt having the potential to kill an Ultimate-Class. Now I need to hold the button slightly longer.
Now this means there are charges. And I need to see the charge. This means…
Groan
"Why can't this be easy?" I brushed a hand through my hair. Before saving the project and closing the project window on my PC.
Thinking about it for some time... Going on a memory lane and then remembering something very interesting...
This means creating another... new... project. Code name it Aurora. The purpose of this… is a Visor. An H.U.D…
Now that I think about this. This is a very important part of the puzzle. For one my aim is shit. And second, a H.U.D is a cream of crop especially when I will have Scale Mail.
Linked directly to my database and my future Sacred Gears. I will be able to see more than anyone will. Countless different visions…
With recovered vigour, I started working on the visor. Thankfully the visor was much easier than the gun's original design.
It was not new technology for me. Instead what took time was converting technology into a magical version of it. Runes… a different type of display.
Nonetheless, once the angle was found. It was child's play…
…
…
It only took me a few weeks.
"So what's with the glasses?" Serafall picked up the sharp-looking glasses.
"That is Aurora H.U.D v2.0.1. Glasses which will tell me pretty much anything I need. They are directly linked to my rapidly growing database downstairs."
"You mean that new room you made next to the assembly line of yours?" Serafall asked curiously as she put on the glasses.
Instantly her eyes widened.
"Woah! What is this? It's like those Sci-fi things!" She said with awe.
"Sci-fi things?" I chuckled hearing that.
"Yeah! It's like the glasses are smart! And it shows all sorts of things! Like it highlights the technology in the room. And it can give a detailed explanation! It even helps with reading your mood!" She said in a fascinated tone, before having a thoughtful look.
"So...can I get one?" She asked me with a pleading tone.
"I can make contact lenses," I said with a sigh.
"That's great! It will help me to get a read on in meetings and stuff!" She said that as if it's such an easy thing.
"It's not that easy. The information has to come from somewhere. At the moment the glasses are connected directly with the database I have downstairs.
They become quite useless outside my city. As there is no database to access." I explained with a sigh.
"...then they are useless in the Underworld?" She asked, disappointed.
"It's still a new magical technology. With my rough estimate, it will take at least 30 to 40 years from the future by human standards. And it has a limited range because it needs to be connected to my network.
If you can have my network in your work area then you can use it and you can even have a video chat with me or even access anything I have stored with thought alone" My explanation earned me another shocked look.
"This is good. I can assume this is the reason why you postpone your work on guns?" She took off her glasses and started inspecting them.
"Yes, this is one of the key components for my Scale Mail. The Aurora system will help me control the guns. The energy charge, their mode, and most importantly the aim." I said with a sigh.
"I see… this truly takes a lot of time. How many years has it been since you started with the guns?"
"Not quite. What takes a lot of time is building the appropriate tools I need. Now that most of the tools are truly done, not many future projects will take this long." I said while leaning back into my comfy PC chair.
"Hmm… now that you mentioned it you could simply make these guns from the press of a…"
"Button...or voice command… or even think about it when the glasses are on." I finished for her…
"...That's amazing… and terrifying… you are giving me another perspective on the whole researcher/inventor thing… I thought Ajuka was scary with his whole Kankara formula and his sharp mind… but I bet he has something similar to this in his man cave." Serafall said in a joking tone but there was some sweat on her forehead.
"Hmm, possibly but from what I have understood about him, he is more into laws of the world and energy things. And I am more into engineering."
"Hmm. Probably but you're going into the whole energy thing with Power of Destruction. I am sure Ajuka hasn't delved into Bael family magic… or did but didn't say anything. That's why I said you two are similar. One thing for sure is that I don't want you two to meet." She said the last part with a terrified look. if not for Ars Goetia she would have been even more scared.
"And why not? I am pretty sure we could make some interesting projects together."
"See! That's the point! I will lose you to him!" She pointed at me.
I deadpanned.
"I am pretty sure I am into the female side of the spectrum."
"And he could sell his niece to you and you would have his family and stuff!" Serafall didn't give up on this…
"...Right… I will leave you to your conspiracy theories… I still need to add Aurora to Castor and Pollux…" With that in mind, I returned to my work while Serafall started having a paranoid look.
It would seem she truly has a wild imagination. And here I thought I am the one with the imagination to build stuff. Or is it a female thing? I should probably get a consultation with one of the love Goddess… preferably when one is chained up and her powers sealed off… as they will most likely try to drain me…
With a future minor goal marked I continue to work on the M.T.M system again. This time adding the Aurora system into it.
By this point, I should create a core system instead of this mess…
Thinking of it for a bit I looked at Serafall again, she was still thinking about that stuff!
"Right… So did Sirzechs enjoy the new toy you gave him?"
"Hmm? Oh that! You only now remembered that you gave him one?" She asked me with a deadpan.
"It's already a finished invention. I forget about those quickly enough." I said while shrugging my shoulders.
Besides, I needed her to forget that weird idea she started to think about. I am getting goosebumps!
"Right… he said that you have a favour from Lucifer himself. It's a big deal. I don't know how long this will be under wraps but the rest of the devil kind will eventually find about this favour. Since Sirzechs is over the moon with his signer… and yes, it's the greatest invention any civilization has ever seen." Serafall said that with a serious look, her blue eyes slightly glowed. I could feel the sheer presence she was radiating.
'The paperwork… just how deadly was it for them? I mean she fell in love with me because of it… this is strange… this world is strange…' I internally shook my head… at least she forgot about the whole Ajuka nonsense….
Inventions / Technology / Sacred Gears
M.T.M (Motion to Magic) Castor & Pollux MK IV
A pair of magic-casting (shooting) devices in the form of hand cannons.
Classification:
Pseudo High-Class / Possibly Longinus-Class Sacred Gear, composed of 73 magic circles fused into several systems.
Castor: A longer and bulkier design specialized for energy beam attacks.
Pollux: A sleeker off-hand weapon designed for rapid-fire energy barrages.
Composition:
Constructed from a combination of alchemy-forged metal and human-made titanium, making them significantly lighter than expected.
Barrier magic lines the interior, absorbing excess heat and converting it into magic, which is then redirected into the Barrier Rail System.
The gun barrels are lined with thin layers of transmuted diamond, enhancing sensitivity to magic.
Overall, both weapons are made from transmuted metals and diamonds, maximizing efficiency and durability.
Key Magic Techniques:
Advanced M.T.M System:
Captures motion and converts it into energy, which is then transformed into magic.
Even regular humans can use this system by simply pulling the trigger.
Enhanced motion absorption control allows for variable shot intensity—holding the trigger longer can release anything from a small energy bolt to a one-shot kill attack capable of eliminating a High-Class Devil.
Diamond Barrier Rail System:
Functions like an energy railgun, using barrier rails enhanced by acceleration circles to build up power.
Embedded diamond layers generate friction, which is absorbed by the barriers and converted into additional energy for the final shot.
Revolver System:
A rotating mechanism positioned behind the Diamond Barrier System and above the M.T.M System.
Determines the type of projectile the weapon fires.
Bullet types:
Beam – Concentrated energy beam.
Bolt – Standard energy shot.
Scattershot – Spread-fire energy burst.
Cannon – High-power, explosive energy shot.
Cartridge Loader:
A modular ammunition system inspired by human firearms, allowing the guns to load specialized magic cartridges.
Currently, only the Power of Destruction Cartridge has been developed.
Aurora Control System:
Enables Marcus to aim, monitor charge levels, and select bullet types via the Aurora Visor Glasses (detailed below).
Aurora Visor Glasses
A cutting-edge fusion of magic and technology—possibly the most advanced device on Earth.
Classification:
A magic-assisted smart device, responsive to both thought and voice commands.
Composition:
Constructed from transmuted materials, including rubber, glass, and metal.
Contains six highly intricate magic circles, on par with the Ars Goetia in complexity. These circles enable:
Mind reading
Visual manifestation
Intent-based interaction
Key Magic Systems & Technology:
Aurora Assistance OS v2.0.1:
A hybrid operating system that combines human technology with magical manifestation.
Forms the core of the Aurora HUD (Heads-Up Display).
Aurora Display:
Functions as a computer screen integrated into the glasses.
Can be activated or deactivated via thought or voice commands.
Aurora Connection:
Manages data flow between the glasses and Marcus' central database.
Current range is limited to Marcus' hometown.
Aurora Sacred Gear Assistance:
Simplifies the control and operation of Pseudo-Sacred Gears, making them more user-friendly.
