The Daily Life of the Inventor in Another World

…

"Umm...this is… like a job… you're even going to pay me…" Jeanne said with a confused look. She was expecting a bonafide slave contract where she is selling her life to a human who can enslave devils…

"It is… you will be working for me your whole life and you are going to get paid for it," Marcus said with a shrug. He might kidnap them but he will be offering things for the work. He might be a self-proclaimed bad guy but even bad guys pay their subordinates...well...except Frieza...

"I see… this...is not bad actually… " Jeanne continued to read until she stumbled upon something...cool!

"Whoa… you are going to allow me to test things!?" She asked with a shell shocked expression. She already saw the armours and the rifles!

'This is going to be so cool!'

She skipped a bunch of warning signs, something about the possibility of losing a limb and things like that. She was looking at the bright side…

"Yeah. Sacred Gears and things like that, you will be testing and using them. It will be for future data gathering." Marcus explained simply.

Jeanne nodded happily hearing that. She has no idea what the data gathering in specific was. But, she assumes her usage of it will be recorded to make even better gear. So it's like a double win for her.

"That's great! Much better than I expected!"

Serafall just looked at the girl, another happy test subject… She thought that those would be rare. But somehow her sister ended up as one and now these two from the looks of it.

Although the younger blonde didn't say anything, she was deep in reading her contract…

Eventually, Jeanne signed it up with a grin and so did Le Fay with a satisfying smile.

At that moment the pair got reminded that they just sealed the deal with their magic as they felt a pull from their magic flowing into the contracts.

Serafall sweat dropped for a bit. Now, more than ever, was her Master like Lucifer himself. He just made a pair of girls with a considerable background and legacy sign away their lives…

"Good. Now why don't you two go with Grayfia who will start showing you around. At the moment it's not much, but my base is rapidly expanding." Marcus said as he remembered that the tunnel works is rapidly increasing as the assembly line is producing more labour bots every two hours...

"I knew it! This is like a garage right? And you are building up your real base!" Jeanne said with quite a happy and smug look. Even Le Fay had a realising look.

It would seem that their wild guesses about their new Lord being like a supervillain building up his base...was right on spot.

"True, this place is going to be a garage for my cars in future. While my real base will be build-up away from the city and more towards the centre of the nation."

Serafall eyes slightly widened hearing that! That was new! She didn't hear anything about this! Marcus is building a new base somewhere? And he is not just calling it a garage anymore!?

That's big! It is hard to call the current place a 'garage' in the first place… since it has a bunch of things like a ritual room, testing room, kitchen, bathroom, and a fully automated assembly line that produces things from thin air! Well, it is using perpetual energy to create raw materials through transmutation… nonetheless, he still called this place a garage after having so many things build-up to this point!

So, it begs the question. How much bigger is the official base going to be?

"Oh, I see… is it going to be pretty big then?" Jeanne asked and the rest were also waiting for him to answer.

"More or less a few times bigger." He shrugged back casually.

"Don't worry. There will be enough things for you to do." Marcus said with a wide smile. For some reason, the blonde had a cold sweat going down her spine. It was out of nowhere so she was slightly confused on why she was feeling nervous.

He only said a few times bigger… so, it shouldn't be that big...right?

~~~~~~After~~~~~~

"Rubbish…"

"This one's rubbish too…"

"Uhh… this one garbage…"

"Looks different but still, garbage…"

"Well, this one is below average but just above garbage…"

I looked through the five demonic swords I got from that silver-haired dude. They all look ugly and have below-average powers.

Demonic energy is quite dangerous to humans, even to devils themselves when it's not their demonic energy.

Since these five demonic swords are useless they will be stored in the showcase vault.

Although for safety sake, they will be properly vaulted and holographic displays will be shown in their place. It will be done for all the Sacred Gears and the swords. Meaning that no one will be able to just grab it and bond with it.

But, whereas the Demonic Swords are useless, the pair of Holy Swords were not. Caliburn has space controlling powers and Excalibur Ruler has mind control ones.

The best part from this raid though, is the Sacred Gears… True Longinus, Dimension Lost and Annihilation Maker. And of course some common ones like Twice Critical several times over and something used by Hercules…

Anyway…

Dimension Lost is a wonderful piece of gear that could help me improve the Diamond Core Heart. Who knew that a mist could do such things.

As it stands. The lockdown mode can be improved, instead of damaging the barrier, it could send the attack to the Dimension Gap.

Annihilation Maker is quite an interesting piece of Gear that allows the creation of monsters from one's shadow.

Further data implies that it's something extremely close to the creation of living and breathing beings. Only a few steps away from creating true life.

The core itself is that of a concept instead of a creature, similar to the lesser gears from the likes of Sword birth, only instead of swords it creates monsters with abilities. Although it is just a concept, the gear itself still holds quite a bit of programming and processing worthy of the Longinus' name.

Then… of course, there is the True Longinus… the spear. While the gear is basic. Like any other gears, the core itself is quite fascinating and very powerful. The amount of holy energy it emits made Serafall stay metres away, even in a sealed state like this.

The spear originally was just a simple steel weapon. But after stabbing Jesus himself and upon recovering the relic it has been reworked by the big man, Big G. Not only that, but it also holds some of his power.

While the readings only show a mixture of Holy and Divine energy at its very core it also reads one's mind, ambition, ideology and judges if it's worthy to receive extra help against the opponent.

'Hmm, while I won't be able to recreate the miracle of the Big G's will, I could recreate the spear…and with this much data I could… crystalline concepts of my desire...and make something similar to… Rhongomyniad…

Though it wouldn't be the same as Fate's one. There are no layers of reality being tower-anchored here. But, the world's end concept... now that should be possible

Again different interpretations…'

Only after scanning all the gears and swords and then having stored them away did Serafall properly approach me.

"Phew… Finally, they are gone! But, seriously… True Longinus and those two Holy Swords! How on earth did they have those! This kind of looks bad for Heaven, which is quite a good rub at them from my point of view." The black-haired devil said with a smug tone.

"None of them were with Heaven to begin with, so it's kind of half-assed but, you are right. The Holy relics should have been secured as soon as possible, but they weren't. So, now they are mine." I said with a shrug. I don't care much but this is my win and my loot so it stays with me.

"So? What are you planning to do with THREE Longinus gears and SEVEN swords?" The beauty curiously asked me. I used this moment to pull her onto my lap.

I kind of noticed how her dressing habits have changed quite a bit. She now prefers to dress in beautiful dresses regardless of whether it is needed or not. They make her look quite hot.
