The next day, perhaps because of the memories from my past life. I woke up at 4:30 am, and start doing some exercise. As I jogged around our private island, I was also looking for a place to put the Mecha that I bought at the auction yesterday, and I decided to put it in an empty warehouse on the east coast of the private island.
It seems like it was a place for boats to dock, I don't know the details, but it seems like the owner of this island before we bought it had a private boat. I could remember all that because my memory had gotten better, I also knew the reason for Alicia's surprised expression when I asked her to go out together.
That's because, let alone asking her to go out together, I usually just talked to her when I needed to. No wonder she was surprised when I suddenly asked her out. Turns out my previous behavior was a little more different than I'd expected.
Well, if anyone asks me why my behavior suddenly changed, I'll just make some excuses later. But I still don't know why Melissa's attitude towards me is like that though.
After jogging I went straight to the bathroom, then headed to the dining room to eat breakfast. I could see Alicia still in her pajamas eating her breakfast at the dining table and Melissa in her maid outfit cooking food in the kitchen.
I sat on the chair opposite Alicia, and waited for my breakfast.
"Another salad?"
"En...."
Alicia nodded at me as she continued eating her breakfast.
Oh no. I shouted to Melissa in the kitchen.
"Melissa, no more salad, please!"
"Shut up, or I'll give a poison to your food!"
Seriously, maybe I should cook my own food. Come to think of it, what can I cook again?
Alright, forget it. I couldn't think of anything other than instant noodles.
Not long after, Melissa came in with food from the kitchen. She placed her plate in front of her, and mine in front of me. Thank God, this time I was given a western-style omelette. Anyway, why are these two like salads that much?
Both of their bodies are already very flattering for a woman, why do they still want to diet? Forget it, I would never be able to understand what women think.
"Thank you for the food."
We then ate our breakfast quietly.
By the way, Alicia didn't seem to be wearing any clothes to the office today, she's not going today?
"You guys didn't go to the office today?"
"No."
"It's Sunday, silly."
Oh right, they don't go to the office on Sundays.
"I see. So what are you gonna do today?"
"Working on some files on my computer."
"I'm going to laze around at home while helping Lady Alicia if she needs anything. By the way...."
Melissa then gave me a sharp look.
"You're very talkative today. No, not just today, but yesterday as well. What's wrong with you, you don't usually talk this much."
Why did she have to ask that now, I still didn't have a good reason.
"Really? For me, I'm just acting like usual."
I answered as casually as possible.
"Hmm...."
Looks like my answer didn't convince her, her gaze became even more suspicious.
"Whatever, I don't care even if you have a mistress or something."
"Oy! What do you mean by that?"
"Nothing."
Melissa ignored me and continued eating her breakfast.
I am really wondering why she is this rude to me.
After finishing my breakfast faster than them, I rushed to my room to get ready to go somewhere. As I was finishing my preparations, I just remembered that I hadn't given Alicia and Melissa the necklace I bought from the auction yesterday. So I grabbed the accessory box, and brought it downstairs.
I found them in the family room. Alicia was still in her pajamas and seemed to be doing something on her laptop, and Melissa next to her in casual clothes and short pants was watching a TV. When did she change?
I brought the accessory box to them and handed it over.
"Here, the white pendant for Alicia and the black pendant for you."
"....."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Just take it, Alicia will explain it."
I gave the accessory box to Alicia, then said.
"I'll be gone for a while to take care of something, if the Auction Hall staff comes with the Mecha. Just tell them to take it to the warehouse near the harbor in the east, I'll be back before lunch. I am off."
After saying that, I left immediately. I could still hear Melissa yelling at me to stop, but it would be troublesome to persuade her to accept the gift. I'll just leave it to Alicia.
********
After driving downtown for half an hour, I arrived at my destination. It was one of the firearms stores owned by my mother's company. When I entered, I was greeted by an elderly man who was probably around 40 years old.
"Welcome, Sir Hiro. We heard about your arrival from the President, she said you came here to buy firearms. Is that true?"
"Yeah. More precisely one pistol-type laser weapon, and 1 AR and SR-type firearm."
"Then please come with me, I will show you our best products."
I then followed the old man into a room filled with futuristic-looking firearms and lasers gun. Although I had seen many firearms in my past life, but all these weapons still felt unfamiliar. There were actually a few laser guns that I could recognize based on my memories from the Academy.
"Please Sir Hiro, choose whichever one you want."
"Sure."
I then walked to the weapon racks, and searched around for the weapons I wanted. If possible, I wanted to find a firearm that was as similar as possible to the firearm I used to use from the memories of my past life.
I then saw a weapon that caught my eye, it was a sniper called Invention-V that used 50 caliber bullets.
"Ooh, good choice Sir Hiro. That is our newly created Sniper Rifle, its effective maximum range is up to 3.6 km and its accurate range is up to 2.3 km. In the hands of a trained shooter, the weapon is deadly because the sound it creates is not too loud even without silencer."
The effective maximum range is much farther than I thought.
"Then give me this."
"Very well, Sir Hiro. Would you like to test it in the shooting room?"
"Yeah, that sounds good."
After that I looked around for weapons again, and I chose the AR-15 as my AR, and a laser gun called the KR-17 as my laser pistol.
I then headed to the shooting range to test my weapons, the performance of the AR-15 was better than I remembered, it was probably due to the technology of this world is more advanced. As for the KR-17 laser gun, it felt a little strange to me, perhaps because it was the first time I had fired a laser gun after recalling my past memories.
The feeling of firing a laser gun was very different from firing a firearm, I hardly felt any recoil, this laser gun could even penetrate the thin steel that I had to shoot twice with my AR-15. Now I know why many people like laser guns.
But I would still buy this AR-15, even though this laser gun can penetrate armor. But it can't penetrate electromagnetic shielding, after all, it only uses level 2 laser bullets.
About the sniper, I'm quite satisfied. But there was one thing that made me a little uncomfortable. It was the scope's automatic setting of distance and wind speed.
"Old man, can you disable this automatic scope setting?"
The old man looked a little surprised when I asked him.
"What's wrong, Sir Hiro? As far as I know, the automatic setting is very accurate."
"I know, it's just I don't really like it."
I don't really like automated things.
"If you want it, we'll give you a manual scope later."
" Thanks."
I then put down the sniper.
"Is that all you want Sir Hiro?"
"Yeah."
"Then please go to the registration room to register your weapon ownership."
"Okay. Thank you for your help, old man."
"You're welcome sir."
After saying goodbye to the old man, I headed to the registration room. Once there, I was greeted by a female staff member who immediately greeted me.
" Sir Hiro, I've heard about your arrival. Please come and follow me."
I then followed the female staff to the computer.
"Since I was informed by the Chairwoman earlier, I only need your signature and a copy of your family card chip."
"Sure."
I then gave the lady a copy of my family card chip that I had prepared before coming here.
"Okay. For confirmation, there are four members in your family including you, correct?"
Four? There should only be three, right? Who is the other one?
"Can I take a look?"
"Of course, Sir Hiro."
The woman then turned the computer screen to me.
I was very surprised when I saw the members on my family card. Why was Melissa there? And why is her last name Denzelnas? It should be Krona, right? What the f*ck is going on!?
" Is there something wrong Sir Hiro?"
"No, nothing. Go ahead."
I tried to answer in the most casual tone possible.
"Then please sign here."
Although my mind is filled with what I saw just now, but I need to finish this first before I think about that.
"Okay, it's done. The weapon you ordered will be delivered directly to your place."
"Yeah. Tell the delivery man to take it to an old warehouse on the east side of our island."
"Okay, I will."
After I finalized the ownership papers for my weapon. I then immediately called my mom.
"What's wrong Hiro~? Are you missing your mom already?"
"It's not that, mom. I just want to ask you something."
"Just say it~"
"Why is Melissa's name on our family card? And why does her family name also have our family name?"
"Ahahaha.... About that! Mmmm.... "
Hearing my mother's panicked voice, my desire to hear the answer immediately disappeared.
"You know, for noblewomen in our empire, there is something called a Loyal Maid. A loyal maid is a maid who will serve a noblewoman until the end of her life, no matter happens."
I can already guess where this is going.
"And the Loyal Maid must be a woman and the same age as her master. Because the Loyal Maid is the same age as her master, and she must also continue to serve her master even if her master is married, many Loyal Maids cheat on their master's husband."
My mother paused for a moment before saying.
"Therefore, a few years ago, the royal family of the empire declared. If a noble lady who has a Loyal Maid gets married, her Loyal Maid will automatically become her husband's mistress."
Oh man, now I know why Melissa always acts like that towards me. No wonder she acts like that....
Whether from the memories of my past life or my present life, I didn't know about this at all.
"By the way, you don't have to worry about Melissa. We already asked her and she said she doesn't mind."
She doesn'mind my ass! From her attitude every day she clearly minded.
"Why didn't you tell me about this, mom?"
"Ah.... sorry Hiro. It looks like mom has some work to do, I'll hang up, okay? I love you~ Bye."
My mom immediately hung up the call, and all I could do was stare at the screen of my smartwatch.
*Long Sigh*
Again, I let out a long sigh unconsciously.
I needed ice cream to cool my mind. I looked for an ice cream vending machine before heading home.
*******
I was currently sitting on a bench under a tree in the garden district enjoying my chocolate ice cream and having a relaxing time like a NEET.
In the midst of enjoying the beautiful garden scenery, I saw a group of young people. Three man and two women, I wondered why they were in the park at this time of the day. The weather was quite hot today, so I'm sure most people would have chosen somewhere else to enjoy their day off. Maybe they're NEET?
I don't think it's possible, that's because they're wearing pilot suits that look like an armor. I wonder what pilots like them are doing in the park at this time of day.
While I was still looking at them, suddenly my eyes and the eyes of the woman with long pink hair met. Oh shit, I hate pink.
She then walked towards me, and the rest of her companions followed her.
Why is she walking this way? Damn, this is the second time I've bumped into a strange person while sitting outside.
The woman then stopped in front of me before speaking with a smile.
"I'm sorry if I bothered you, sir."
"Yep, you're very bothering."
Hearing my words, the woman's smile froze, and her four companions could be seen stifling their laughter.
Ah, damn. I've made a slip. I meant to only say that in my heart.
"Sorry, just ignore that. It's just my inner voice leaking out."
"T-That's fine, if I bother you, I can leave Sir."
She said with a wry smile.
"No, really. It' not a problem. How can I help you, Miss?"
I then asked her back with a small smile.
"Well, actually I just wanted to ask. Do you know about the Hanz Workshop? We heard we can check the condition of our pilot suit there."
"Ooh, about that. I know but.... did you guys get lost or something?"
"Umm.... Yes, we saw a pickpocket on the street and decided to chase him and ended up here."
"Did you catch him?"
"No, he got away."
She said that shyly. I wanted to laugh but.... I guess it's not good to laugh at a time like this, right?
"And that's how we got lost here."
Suddenly the red-haired tomboy behind the pink-haired one spoke to me in a cheerful and friendly tone.
"Why don't you just use the assistant maps on your smartwacth?"
"Well... You see. My sister, although she seems reliable, is actually very careless, which is why we forgot to replace our planet's SIM card with this planet's SIM card. So now we can't even use the internet."
"Neenah, stop that!"
"So what, Sis? It's true, isn't it?
The pink hair stared at the redhead with flushed cheeks before returning her gaze to me.
"So that's how it Sir, can you tell us where the place is?"
"Yeah, sure. About 7 blocks north of here you'll find a building that has a projector that says Hanz Workshop on it."
"Thank you sir... Umm...."
"Hiro, Hiro Denzelnas."
"I'm Nineve Moshinsky, thank you for helping us, Sir Denzelnas. Since we don't really have much time, we'll leave then. See you around, Sir Denzelnas."
"Yeah, careful."
She bowed and thanked me very politely before walking in the direction I pointed and her other companion followed her.
Another planet, huh? I honestly wondered where they were from and what they were doing here.
I can see that they have the same emblem on the right shoulder of their pilot suits, which means they are a Pilot Squad. There is a possibility that they are Official Pilots sent here to carry out missions, or Independent Pilots who are here because of Client requests.
It could also be that they were Athletic Pilots who came here to Pilot Tournament, but I don't think that's possible since this year's Tournament was held in the Lorandara Empire, and the tournament won't take place until next summer.
Well, whatever it is. None of my business, Melissa's problems are more important than this.
*Sigh*..... I'll buy one more ice cream and go home, maybe I should buy some for Alicia and Melissa too.
*******
"I'm Back."
"Em....Welcome Home."
"Hmph...."
The two of them were still in the living room and doing the same thing, only this time Alicia was wearing casual clothes and short pants that were almost the same as Melissa's wear.
I liked this look of hers more than when she was wearing a dress.
And about Melissa's problem, I think I'll act more nicely to her. She's my official mistress anyway, i wonder why i didn't know about this.
"Your mecha and weapons arrived earlier, they've been stored in the place you said."
Alicia said that to me just as I sat down on one of the nearby couches.
"I see, then I'll go check it out. Oh yeah, here's some ice cream for you girls."
I placed the ice cream I bought on the table along with the container that prevented it from melting. Melissa only reacted after she saw the ice cream I brought.
"Oh! Looks like not only your mouth has got better, but your sensitivity too, huh?"
She said that while taking 2 ice creams from the container. What a greedy woman, but I guess it's okay since I bought a lot.
"Then I'll go to the warehouse first, you two can enjoy the ice cream."
"You don't want to eat lunch? Melissa has already prepared your lunch."
"I'll eat it after this."
Since it was quite hot, I decided to go to the warehouse by car even though it wasn't too far away.
After getting there, I opened the big door of the warehouse and saw the Mecha I bought at the Auction Hall last night standing tall in the center of the warehouse. I could also see a container in the corner of the warehouse, that must be the gun I ordered.
I walked over to my Mecha to take a closer look at it.
It was about 6-7 meters tall, thick armor on the body to protect the pilot, and 2 weapon holsters on its back. I picked up a chip hanging in front of its hatch, this must be the chip that I need to insert in my pilot suit helmet in order to connect with this Mecha.
Unfortunately my pilot suit still needs a few more days before it's finished, I'm really excited to try controlling this thing.
I hope my pilot suit is finished soon.

A few days later, after I finished my morning workout, I got a message from Hanz Workshop that my pilot suit was finished and I could pick it up today.
I then dropped Alicia and Melissa off at their company before heading to Hanz Workshop. When I went inside, I could see the old man Hanz sitting at the counter. It seems like he was waiting for me.
I then walked up to him.
"Sir Hiro, here it is. Your pilot suit."
He then took out a fairly large suitcase, and placed it on the counter. I opened the suitcase, inside I could see a helmet, gray suit and trousers with orange stripes, a vest that had two jet engines behind it, and a grappling hook for the left hand and an insertable sword for the right hand.
All parts of this pilot suit are connected with the vest and helmet as the center because that's where the Soladinium battery that fuels this pilot suit is located, and I have to replace it regularly.
"Hanz, how long does the Soladinium battery in this pilot suit last?"
"Depending on usage, it can last up to 10 days if you only use your pilot suit to control the Mecha. But if you use it to fight and often use the electromagnetic shield or the jet engine, then it will definitely be much faster than 10 days. My prediction is that it will run out in just 2 days at the most."
"I see."
That means just in case I have to bring at least 1 or 2 spare batteries every time I want to use it, huh?
"Would you like to test it right away, Sir Hiro? If you do, you can test it in the test room."
"No, I'll test it at home. I have a promise with my wife to go with her to do something."
That's right, today I promised Alicia to help her meet an important client. Well, I'll just accompany her, not help with the negotiations or anything like that.
"I see, that's too bad. I wanted to see you use the 3D thrust vectoring on your pilot suit."
"Yeah, sorry about that. I'll show you sometime. I'm leaving then, see you later Hanz."
"See you later, Sir Hiro. Come by anytime you want."
When I was right in front of the exit, I bumped into two women I didn't expect.
They were the pink haired woman and the red haired siblings, though today they weren't wearing pilot suits but sportswear that matched the color of their hair. What's her name again? Moshinsky?
"Ah! Sir Denzelnas, i can't believe i'll meet you here."
"Me either."
Come to think of it, she said to check the condition of her pilot suit here, right? Did they come here to pick it up?
"You came here to get your pilot suit?"
"Ah! It's just my sister's pilot suit, we decided to pick it up after doing some exercise together."
"Yo! Handsome guy, we meet again."
The redhead greeted me excitedly with a smile. She then said.
"Is what's in the suitcase a pilot suit as well?"
" It is."
"Wow, that means you're a pilot, right?"
"Yep."
"Official or Independent pilot?"
"Independent of course."
"Neenah, stop it. Don't ask personal questions like that, it's rude."
"Eeeee..... So what, Sis? He doesn't mind anyway."
"Still, it's rude to ask something like that to someone you just met!"
Even though the two of them were polar opposites in nature, it seemed like they were very close, huh.
"It's okay, Miss Moshinsky. I don't mind."
"Thank you for your understanding, Sir Denzelnas."
"Geez, you're so awkward, Sis."
"Shut up, Neenah."
I love the red haired free spirit.
I actually want to chat with them a little longer. But well, I don't have time now. I have to go immediately to pick up Alicia and Melissa to meet their client, if I'm late Melissa will explode again.
" Well, I have to do something after this so..... Goodbye ladies."
"Oh yes, I'm sorry for holding you up, Sir Denzelnas."
"See you later, handsome guy."
I then walked past them and headed to my car.
********
As soon as I arrived in front of Alicia's company, I headed straight to Alicia's room on the top floor of the building. When I entered there, I could see that she was sitting at her desk and working on something on her computer.
By the way, today she was wearing a dark blue off shoulder dress that showed off both of her white shoulders. She was beautiful as always. Noticing my arrival, Alicia turned her gaze from her computer to me.
"Sit down, I still have something to do. We'll be leaving in a few minutes."
"Okay."
After saying that, she returned her focus to her computer. I then sat down on one of the couches in the room like she said.
"Where's Melissa?"
"Picking up something I ordered downstairs."
"What order?"
Alicia gave me a hesitant gaze, before answering.
"You'll find out later."
What does that mean? Whatever, I'll just wait.
Not long after, the door opened and Melissa, dressed as a maid, came in carrying a bag. Now I understood what Alicia had just said.
"Tsk, you're already here, huh."
The moment our eyes met, Melissa immediately clicked her tongue and gave me a condescending gaze. Even though I've been trying hard to make her hatred for me disappear lately, it seems like it's all useless.
Melissa then took out a pizza box from the bag and placed it on the table. Just as I thought, Alicia must have told Melissa to take her order because she didn't want anyone else to know about it.
"Lady Alicia, here you go."
"En..."
Alicia then sat on the long sofa beside me, and Melissa sat beside her. She also took out two bottles of tea from the bag, and placed them on the table.
"Hey, where' s mine?"
"Just go and get it yourself."
"I can clearly see there's still something in that bag."
"Then here, take it yourself."
Melissa then threw the bag at me, because it was a slow throw I could catch it easily. I took out the canned coffee that was in the bag, Melissa definitely bought this from the vending machine in the lobby.
Putting the coffee down, I then moved my hand to grab the slice of pizza on the table. However, before my hand could reach the pizza slice, Melissa slapped it.
"Who said you could eat it?"
"Really?"
"Cut it out you two, just eat."
Probably annoyed by our argument, Alicia scolded both of us. Detecting the anger in Alicia's tone, we both looked at each other and then decided to stop.
"Sorry."
"Sorry, Lady Alicia."
Seems like Alicia really likes junk food now, she even got angry just because we were a little noisy while she was eating her pizza.
After that, we finished the pizza quietly. And left for Alicia's meeting location with her client.
*********
I drove our car to an upper-class restaurant located in the garden district, from the information I heard from Alicia, this restaurant was directly managed by the imperial government.
Unlike other restaurants that serve their guests at tables, this restaurant only provides a room that must be reserved before customers come here. That's why this restaurant was mostly used for meetings and such.
"Did you reserve the room?"
"Our client did."
The three of us went inside with Alicia in the lead and walked straight to the reception desk.
"Can I help you?"
"We're here to meet someone."
" Under whose name?"
"Alicia Denzelnas."
"One moment, please."
The staff checked for a moment before saying.
"Very well, Miss Denzelnas. Miss Adelina is waiting for you on the 4th floor in room 404, would you like to be escorted to that room?"
"No need."
After saying that, Alicia walked to the elevator and we immediately followed her. Inside the elevator, because I was curious, I asked.
"Who is this Miss Adelina?"
It wasn't Alicia who answered me, but Melissa.
"Miss Adelina works as an officer responsible for sending bullet supplies to some official pilots on the front lines, she is one of our regular clients."
It was rare that Melissa took the initiative to answer my questions, perhaps my efforts were not as useless as I thought.
We reached the room the receptionist had told us about, and knocked on the door. The door opened, and I could see the person who opened the door. She was a woman with long dark purple ponytail hair, she looked about the same age or maybe a little older than us, she also wore a business suit and a pair of glasses.
She smiled at us and said.
"Please come in, Miss Alicia, Miss Melissa and Sir Denzelnas."
"Thank you, Miss Adelina."
We then followed Miss Adelina and sat on the chairs in the room, after ordering tea, she started talking.
"Well, Miss Alicia. I know you don't really like small talk, so I'll cut to the chase. Just like before, we would like to order 10,000 rounds of 30 and 50mm bullets for the Mecha guns. And we also want to order level 7-9 laser bullet magazines, only this time the quantity is twice as much as before."
Miss Adelina then handed a file to Alicia, I could see Alicia's frown after seeing the file.
"Miss Adelina, I'm fine with the amount but.... Do we really have to provide it this quickly?"
"That's right, Miss Alicia. One way or another, the troops on the planet Karos are in urgent need of them. The parasyte invasion there has been extremely widespread."
Karos, huh? If I'm not mistaken it was the first planet destroyed by parasyte in the novel's timeline.
"I see. We'll try to prepare it as quickly as possible, but don't be surprised if we might be a little late."
"No problem, Miss Alicia. Hearing that from you is enough for me."
Out of curiosity, I spoke to Melissa.
"Melissa, are the two of them quite close?"
"Yeah, since Miss Adelina is our regular client, Lady Alicia has met her many times. They also have similar traits to each other and that's why they get along so well.
"Hmm.... I see."
So it turned out that Alicia also had someone who could be called a friend.
"By the way, Melissa."
"What else?"
"How long they usually talk?"
Melissa only gave me a meaningful gaze for a moment, before turning her gaze out the window. I think I knew what that gaze meant.
After that they talked about a few more things like transportation costs, taxes, and various things I didn't really understand before they finally finished.
"Well, since the business is done, how about we order some food? It's already past lunch time though."
"Ooh, you're right."
That's right, damn it. Melissa and I had been starving since earlier, but these two women were too focused on talking, and neither of us dare to interrupt them.
"You guys can order anything, feel free."
"Really?"
I asked out of curiosity, after all, the food in this restaurant as far as I knew was very expensive.
"You don't have to worry, Sir Denzelnas. Our lunch this time is directly paid for by the Imperial government."
"Oooh, no wonder then."
Not long after, our food finally arrived.
In the middle of eating our lunch, Miss Adelina spoke to me.
"Oh right, I just remembered. Sir Denzelnas, are you interested in becoming an Official Pilot?"
"Uh' Why suddenly?"
"Ahh.... Actually, one of the reasons I came here was also for this, it's just that I was going to tell it through Miss Alicia instead of telling you directly. But since you're already here so it'll be easier."
Miss Adelina sipped her juice before continuing.
"My superior, General Becker said a few days ago. "Try to recruit Captain Denzelnas' son."
So they knew my father.
"You know that I didn't graduate from the pilot academy, right?"
"Yeah. The general said that you quit because of your father's death."
She said that in a tone which sounded concern.
"And you still want to recruit me despite knowing that?"
"Yes."
"Why?"
"I don't know, the General didn't tell me about the reason."
I was silent as I thought about why they wanted to recruit me. As I remember, my simulation score at the academy indeed was higher than average but.... it couldn't have been enough to make them recruit a cadet who didn't graduate from the academy like me.
"So. How about it, Sir Denzelnas?"
Hearing her words brought me out of my thoughts, and also, I don't know when but Alicia and Melissa stopped eating their lunch and looked at me.
"I'll think about it."
I decided to give her an ambiguous answer. I would look at the situation in the future before giving them a clear answer.
"Then we will look forward to a positive response from you, Sir Denzelnas."
"Yeah."
After that, we continued our lunch smoothly.
*******
Arriving home after meeting with Miss Adelina, I dropped Alicia and Melissa off in front of our mansion before I headed to the warehouse to test my new toy.
When I arrived, I took out my pilot suit from my suitcase and put it on right away. After making sure I was wearing it properly and that all the connections were connected, I then put on the helmet.
At first everything looked dark, but after a while a text appeared.
Starting...
10%.....100%
Starting Retina Scanner.
Retina Match.
Welcome Pilot.
I could now see everything clearly, and in the right corner of my vision I could see.
Status:
Battery: 100%
Electromagnetic Shield: 100%
Armor: Optimal
Jet Engine Processor: Strong.
Mecha Chip not detected, please enter the Mecha Chip.
Seeing the message, I quickly inserted my Mecha Chip in the back of my helmet.
Mecha Chip Detected.
Starting Connection.
10%...100%
Connection Succeeded.
Status:
Battery: 100%
Electromagnetic Shield: 100%
Armor: Optimal
Jet Engine Processor: Strong.
Mecha: Connection Strong.
Seeing that all those statuses looked good, I then thought about opening my Mecha's hatch door.
The hatch of my Mecha then opened, and I could see the seat for the pilot there. I then jumped in, sat on the seat and closed the hatch before thinking about starting the connection.
Once again, everything went dark.
Starting Neural Connection, Please clear and ready your mind.
10%...100%
Neural Connection Succeed.
My vision returned to normal, only this time my point of view felt different. That's because my viewpoint this time was taken based on the camera on my Mecha's head. It feels a little strange, but I guess I'll get used to it.
I then thought about displaying the status.
Status:
Battery: 50%
Electromagnetic Shield: 100%
Armor: Optimal.
Good, next armament status.
Status:
Jesper Shield: Ready.
Elbow Rocket: Ready.
Back Rocket: Ready.
Sword: Ready.
Aiming system: Working.
Rocket Launcher: Empty.
Everything looks good, apart from the 50% remaining battery and the empty Rocket Launcher ammo. After all, the auction only gave 1 Soladinium battery, while the Mecha needs two of them.
By the way, the Jesper Shield is a shield that can be activated for a few seconds to block enemy incoming rounds and return them, although it's not very accurate.
I decided to tried and take out the swords.
After I activated it, two swords suddenly extended from both of my Mecha's hands, although the length of the swords was only about half of my Mecha's arms, but this is enough for me.
I then tried a few slashing moves while using the swords, and it felt awesome. I'll get addicted if I keep doing this.
Man.... for a Mecha fan like me, this felt like a dream come true.
Having had enough of testing my Mecha, I then disconnected the Neural Connection and exited the pilot's seat. I took off my pilot suit helmet, while looking at my Mecha with satisfied eyes.
I'm completely satisfied, it might need some modifications, especially the color. I think I'll change the color to gray, so that it matches my pilot suit better. And of course I'll buy her a long-range weapon as well, after all that's what the 2 weapon holsters on my Mecha's back are for.
And to do all that, I need money. All my money was almost gone at the auction, and there was no way I could ask my mom for money anymore.
So.... Looks like it's time for some action.
