Itami sat within the confines of her personal quarters. On the table was her latest invention, something that was incredibly easy for someone like herself, who majored in mechanical engineering to create. What existed on this paper was none other than a basic combustion engine.
With the light of the divine mirror, not only had Itami received inspiration, but so had the scientists beneath her banner. They were progressing at a rate far quicker than they had previously. Thus, she had decided now was the time to create a combustion engine so that she could advance her military's capabilities.
There was just one problem with this, and that was the fact that she herself was severely lacking in means to power combustion engines. Whether it was oil or diesel, Itami lacked the means to power her newest invention, and this was of considerate concern.
