I didn't immediately leave, I first exchanged mechanical expertise with Ramiris.
I finally have knowledge on spirit technology and can incorporate spirits and use to their fullest potential… or at least until I actually do apply it to my technology.
"Hey, Ramiris why don't we create this?" I unfolded the blueprint of what can only be described as an angel with two blue luminescent wings and a biblical cross for a face, "I call this one Gabriel."
Ramiris looked at the blueprint, not because of the device it was showcasing, but more because of the blue medium used to showcase it. It was a very sophisticated way of showcasing the artifacts inner to outer workings.
She examined the the way Simon showcased the robot on the blueprint and memorized it.
She put that aside and instead focused on the machine itself, a purpose built war machine in the guise of an angel, Ramiris gaze grew complicated, she looked at the innocently smiling man and then back to the specs of this weapon, "I'm beginning to regret giving you my blessing."
"You could just say no."
"Yeah, but if I do then you'll probably create such a war machine anyway… and without my supervision."
"If you think that this is my worst design then believe me, I have far worse creations to bring to life."
Ramiris looked at this man and started to believe she had just given a heroes egg to a demon, "Are you gonna create anything that will threaten the world?"
"Threaten? Maybe, but it doesn't mean I'm gonna use them to subjugate the world. I created simply for the sake of creating, like when a writer has an idea, they write it down immediately."
" Over the years of me being in this world, that desire has gotten stronger and I will not stop until that desire is sated." I voiced with an ambitious tone, " If you don't want this machine, that's fine, but I create until my heart is content."
She began examining the floor of all of the stuff Simon was planning to create. Some were designs for machines, others were equations that revolved around mana and spirit manipulation.
Ramiris picked up one confusing equation that caught her interest, the equation confused her but it also set off alarms for her danger sense, "loneliness + alienation + fear + despair + self-worth ÷ mockery ÷ condemnation ÷ misunderstanding × guilt × shame × failure × judgment n=y where y=hope and n=folly, love=lies, life=death, self=dark side. What the hell is this?"
" That right there is the anti-life equation, mathematical proof that life itself is meaningless and all pursuits of freedom and hope are futile efforts."
Ramiris looked horrified at my words, 'what the hell do you mean mathematical proof that life is meaningless?'
Simon looked at the mortified fairy and decided to comfort her, "Don't worry Rams, it's just a theory, I doubt there's such a thing in existence. I believe that everyone has a choice and shouldn't be bound by such an equation."
" You better not adhere to something so nihilistic and don't give me that stupid nickna-" When she turned around and looked past me she saw that I had already created the angelic machine, only difference that deviated between the blueprint and the official device was that Simon created it with eight luminescent wings instead of two.
" I didn't say I actually wanted it!"
" And I said I was gonna create it whether you like it or not." I looked at the tiny spirit with a blank stare, " look, it was technically made for war but I can create a personality tailored to how you want it to be. Either that who we could get a demon to possess it and serve you like that, ha wouldn't that be ironic, a demon possessing a mechanical angel."
" Ok then. Let's summon a demon to possess the body." Ramiris words caught me off guard but I complied anyway. I created a chaos core and I inserted in. Next I summoned a demon to possess the body.
" You will be given the name Gabriel." I named him too fast for Ramiris to do anything, she gave me an angry glare while my magicules left my body and into the machine.
" Calm down, he's still your servant." I calmed down the angry queen.
" Thank goodness, I would be worried if he followed a psychopath like you."
" If theirs anything else, I'll be taking my leave."
" Just leave the rest of the cookies here."
———————————————
I teleported back to my base in Jura… without the cookies obviously.
I focused on my next problem, how to awaken my hero's egg, this point in the timeline is the most boring, there were no wars, no current conflicts.
Should I go to the eastern empire and challenge Rudra… that's a fucking terrible idea. I shouldn't have had that thought in the first place.

Guy was sipping on century old wine, minding his own business when suddenly…
"HEY GUY!!!!!!" Guy was scared by the sudden scream, 'how did someone get past my senses?'
He saw the recipient and suddenly realised why his senses failed, " oh hey, I didn't expect you so soon." Guy's face changed from surprise to happiness instantly.
"Hey teach, question, how do you awaken a hero's egg."
Simons words caused Guy's brain to freeze, 'His already gotten an egg! It's been less than a week and his already making new strides!'
Suddenly a portal opened and arms stretched out from behind me and wrapped around me, "My my, it seems little Simon is getting powerful much quicker." Velzard cooed and teased from behind.
"The method to awaken a hero egg is to prove your worthyness to the elemental of light or darkness that bonded to you."
"I doubt it would question my worthyness considering the elemental of darkness was created by me."
Both Velzard and Guy looked surprised at what I just said, both had the same thought, 'You created an elemental?!'
I could easily tell the expressions on their faces, "Yeah, Ramiris had the same shock on his face."
