I Became an Academy Mechanic Genius

222 – Each person’s mission

The next day.

Ed woke up early in the morning and gathered his group.

Today is finally the day to punish the followers of the Seven Deadly Sins, so everyone has been gathered together to explain the strategy.

“The operation is simple.”

And Ed’s strategy was very simple.

As I said before, the task is to split into three groups and infiltrate each city to kill the followers of the Seven Deadly Sins.

However, in order to successfully complete the operation, some tricks were needed.

After identifying the characteristics and weaknesses of the followers of the Seven Deadly Sins, you must focus on attacking them.

Ed told that to his companions.

“They become strong by preying on human desires. In particular, the seven deadly sins of pride, envy, anger, sloth, greed, gluttony, and lust are great prey for them. “It is likely that the entire city has been absorbed by these negative emotions.”

“···Hmm. Okay. In that case, we need to cut off their power source first.”

“Yes. That’s it. We need to put the humans in the city to sleep first and cut off the power source. However, to do that, you need to do the underlying work well. “For this to be effective, you must cut off the power source to the followers of the Seven Deadly Sins at once, so you must carefully install this ‘sleep induction device’ throughout the city.”

The Grand Dukes nodded.

In other words, the gist of the operation is to install a ‘sleep induction device’ throughout the city, and to do so, you must act well so as not to be discovered.

Because there are minions of the Seven Deadly Sins who monitor humans all over the city.

“When you arrive at the site, you will be able to immediately understand the general atmosphere. Please follow the humans there and install a sleep inducing device. “Just follow this hologram to the installation area.”

Ed said so and distributed the devices to the princes.

A mini-map of the city was displayed on the device, showing red dots where sleep inducing devices should be installed.

“···It’s a very intuitive device. “With this device, you can easily install a sleep induction device even if you don’t know the city well.”

The Archdukes, who knew how to use the minimap, took all the devices Ed gave them.

Because they all had ‘subspace backpacks’ manufactured by the Magic Engineering Development Department, they were able to easily store a large amount of sleep induction devices and mini-map generators.

“Then let’s begin the operation. “I wish you all good luck.”

So Ed and his group split into three groups and moved to each city.

Ed moved to a big city ruled by the Seven Deadly Sins of anger, greed, and gluttony.

Isabella and Enya moved to a port city ruled by the Seven Deadly Sins of Pride and Envy.

Finally, Lucas and Claire moved to the fortress city ruled by the Seven Deadly Sins of Lust and Sloth.

Forgetting that even those who go to save the city are swirling with the emotions of the Seven Deadly Sins.

***

A port city.

On the outskirts, four dolls were moving around busily.

The father and daughter of the Cruel family and the father and daughter of the Graham family are examining the situation with a ‘drone’ in order to enter the city.

“Now is the right time.”

While examining the interior of the city with a drone, the timing was finally right.

People who had been wandering around the outskirts of the castle like zombies were rushing out, creating an opening to infiltrate the city.

Ileiya said as she put on the bastard.

“Please enter now. “I will take the lead.”

Ileiya said that and ran on the ground.

Then, with quick movements, he climbed up the tens of meters high castle wall and stood tall at the top.

Then, Enya also quickly climbed onto the castle wall with movements similar to her father.

Ileiya said, looking at her daughter with a happy face.

“hehehehe, as expected, our daughter. “It’s pretty good.”

Enya has reached the beginning of becoming a sword master.

The sight of a growing child has always made parents excited.

Ileiya was always criticized by Enya for being reckless, but even so, Ileiya could not hide the raised corners of her mouth.

How is it that my daughter is so perfect?

Ileja shrugged his shoulders, which had risen to their full height, and looked at Adrian and Isabella below with pride.

“It will be difficult for the Graham family to use such a difficult step, so I will give them a rope. Hold on tight and come up.”

Ileiya said that and took out a rope from the subspace bag.

However, Adrian snorted and muttered while looking at Ileiya like that.

“The campaign is about nothing. “Is there any need to go up frivolously and out of breath?”

Isabella responded with an expressionless face.

“That’s right. “I think I know who Enya’s fussing habits resemble.”

Sssssut-

The two said that and rose into the air at the same time as if they had made a promise.

Soon, they rose into the air without a sound like ghosts, climbed over the tens of meters of castle wall and hovered above the heads of Cruel and her daughter.

Then he raised his eyebrows at the two father and daughter.

“······!!”

An expression containing clear provocation.

However, as if nothing had happened, the Graham father and daughter returned to their expressionless faces and landed lightly between the Cruel father and daughter.

Ileiya cleared his throat with an uncomfortable look and said as he retrieved the rope again.

“Hmm. “I tried to help you because you said you had lost your power of negativity, but you are still alive and well.”

“···Hmm. “You can do this basic thing at any time without having to use negation.”

“hahahaha, it’s basic. Climbing a wall tens of meters high without any equipment requires quite advanced tips and skills. Well, it seems like if I use a trick like you, I might not know.”

“···hehehehe. It’s an expedient. In your eyes, our family’s ‘wealth’ appears to be an expedient. Well, it might be unfair for you to have to use your body every time.”

As soon as they enter the port city, Illiya and Adrian start to have a strange fight.

In the meantime, Enya grabbed Illiya’s arm.

He then pointed to the people inside and said.

“Dad. “Look at those people over there.”

····? People?

Ilejah turned his head and looked in the direction his daughter was pointing.

The people gathered there were arguing, slandering and criticizing each other with red, bloodshot eyes.

Enya looked at the scene and said with a stern face.

“···Ed was like that. It is said that if you enter the realm of the Seven Deadly Sins, you will be affected by the corresponding sin. “If you don’t come to your senses, you will be swept away by those emotions and become a slave to the Seven Deadly Sins.”

“······.”

Ileiya closed her eyes.

And then she remembered what she had just done.

She was flattered by the sight of her daughter growing up and tried to brag about it.

It was an act equivalent to ‘pride’.

And he got angry at Adrian’s provocation and tried to disparage his abilities.

It was an act corresponding to ‘time’.

For a very short time, we remained in an area dominated by the Seven Deadly Sins of ‘Pride’ and ‘Envy’, but their influence has already begun to show.

“···I’m sorry. “There is no shame.”

Ileiya immediately apologized.

His excessive affection for his daughter almost ruined the entire operation.

Isabella also spoke to Enya, touching her forehead.

“···Sorry. I was swept away for a moment too. “I have to be careful.”

“···No. To be honest, I was a little moved when you and Sir Graham provoked Dad. “I’m glad I remembered Ed’s advice at that moment.”

Isabella and Enya shared their honest feelings and talked about not making mistakes.

Ileya, who was watching this, held out her hand to Adrian and said.

“You seemed embarrassed as a parent. “I will be careful in the future.”

“··· I am the ugly father who forced her daughter’s misfortune for a long time. “She is in no position to boast about her family’s abilities and look down on others.”

As Adrian said that, he took the hand that Ileiya held out to him.

With that in mind, the four began to plan a strategy, being careful not to be swayed by negative emotions.

“Let’s attack the outlying areas step by step. “Based on the red dot at 12 o’clock, we move around the city clockwise, gradually entering the city.”

And their operation was simple.

The idea is to install a sleep-inducing device that spins around the city in a vortex shape.

It was a simple but most efficient route.

“Good. However, if you act normally, the enemy may notice you, so acting is important. “You have to look like a person obsessed with pride and envy.”

And they began to plan how to deceive the Seven Deadly Sins’ minions stationed throughout the city.

You have to act as if you are dominated by emotions of ‘pride’ and ‘envy’ to avoid arousing their suspicions, so proper acting is necessary.

In response to this, Isabella came up with a surprising idea.

“···Do you know, by any chance, that it is a ‘natural’ game? “It’s a game that Ed mentioned before we left…”

The ‘of course’ game that Ed taught me.

A game where you answer ‘of course’ no matter what question you are asked and then counterattack with a question that puts your opponent in trouble.

If you fail to answer ‘of course’ or get angry in the process, you lose.

Isabella showed the demonstration first.

“The method is simple. Enya! Do you imagine something crazy every time you see Ed? In this way, you can attack each other with questions that may be difficult for the other person. “If these questions are repeated, it will probably seem like you are dominated by ‘pride’ and ‘envy.'”

“····Hmm.”

Ileiya and Adrian nodded.

Indeed, it seemed like if we played a game that stimulated each other’s emotions in that way, it would seem like we were dominated by pride and envy.

“···By the way, it’s Enya.”

But then.

Ileiya, who was thinking deeply, looked back at Enya as if she remembered something to ask.

Then he narrowed his eyes and spoke.

“What Isabella asked earlier is not true, is it? “Every time I see Lord Fix… I think of the most foolish thoughts.”

“····Ha?”

Enya blushes deeply and frowns at Illiya’s sudden interrogation.

Soon she burst out! She screamed and shouted.

“···My, I!? Under! Dad! Surely you don’t believe what he says? My, I have such shameless thoughts! Ha, there’s no way you can do that!”

“······.”

Enya gets angry and reacts violently when she gets hit on the head.

Ileiya looked blankly at her daughter’s embarrassed appearance and then nodded her head.

The ‘Of course’ game certainly seemed like an appropriate game to fool the enemy.

Soon, Illiyah turned her target to Adrian.

“Lord Graham, it is said that when you were 11 years old, you wet your bed and suddenly the water came in while you were sleeping, and you blamed your servant. Is this true?”

“······Hmm??”

Adrian’s expression hardened.

【Shishishishishisit····】

An alley in a port city.

A ghost-shaped devil wrapped in a black cloak was wandering around the city, emitting a gloomy aura.

Those who were given the task of ‘surveillance’ by the followers of the Seven Deadly Sins were carrying out the task of providing more power to their master by further inciting the evil emotions of humans.

It is like this.

【Fill your inner self with malice… Fill yourself with feelings of deprivation and loss… Criticize and be jealous of your precious people… Then our master… Will set you free… ··.】

The devil in the form of a ghost spoke like that and radiated a gloomy energy towards the woman who was lost in thought.

Then the woman, who had been leaning against the wall and muttering to herself in a daze, suddenly started shaking her body and having a seizure.

Then she began to criticize her own family with an expression of evil, as if they were possessed by her evil spirit.

“Yes! It’s because of you that I became like this! A b*tch who is nothing! Just because he caught the eye of a nobleman! It makes no sense for a girl with less face and less talent than me to join the theater company first! “What a b*tch!”

The woman began to drool and let out her feelings of inferiority that had been building up for so long.

It exposes the ugly side of humans by revealing without hesitation the feelings of ‘pride’ and ‘envy’ that are kept inside.

The ‘Watcher’, who was looking at the scene with satisfaction, immediately moved to the next alley.

【Shishishish*t…?】

Then, she tilted her head and looked at one point.

A group of men and women with exotic looks that did not match the attire of this port city caught his eye.

“Have you ever been so frightened by a troll you encountered on your first outing that you ran away?”

“Well, that is! Explain the situation─”

“Are you there!?”

“So that’s—”

“Are you there!?”

“The inside story─”

“Are you there!?”

“Ugh! Yes! However, in order to hide the rumor that you were a piss-poor, crybaby, you didn’t spend your adolescence pretending to be devastated and immersed in darkness, suffering from cool-sickness, and having to listen to your ears!”

“That’s exaggerated─”

“Uh-huh. Just say it’s obvious! Admit it!”

“No, my daughter saw it—”

“Admit it!”

“So—”

“Admit it!”

“There is no such case─”

“Admit it!”

The ugly sight of two middle-aged men who are old enough to childishly tell each other stories from when they were younger.

The watcher, who was looking at them with suspicion, nodded and looked away.

This time it was Isabella and Enya.

“I received a rumor that on one day out of 49, you took all the gambits in middle school and added money to impress Ed, so why don’t you make an excuse?”

“What? Crazy- what kind of nonsense is that?”

“I have to say it’s obvious.”

“I’m like that—”

“I have to say it’s obvious.”

“I’m crazy─”

“I have to say it’s obvious.”

“I admit that”

“I have to say it’s obvious.”

“Ha. Okay. Even so.”

“I’m not assuming that’s the case, but it’s true.”

“Yes, that’s right. I know that you secretly sneaked into Ed’s room, put his pillow between his crotch, held him in your arms, and rubbed against him, doing all kinds of dirty things. I have solid proof of this, right? Take it.”

“That, that, that, that!”

“Take it.”

“In life, poetry, mistakes—”

“Mistake? Sisssssvsssssv respectively, respectively?”

“aaah!! “It could be so!!”

“So what can I do?”

The watcher turned his head.

The image of two ugly women engaged in a passionate fight over a man.

There was no need to look any further.

Certainly, they were people who fell into the emotions of ‘pride’ and ‘envy.’

The watcher clicked his tongue and moved to the next area.

***

“Oh. Please, God.”

Bjornson Bernhard arrived at the fortress city and touched his forehead while looking at the panoramic view of the city.

This is a fortress city ruled by the Seven Deadly Sins of Lust and Sloth.

The whole city was having a s*x party.

Bjornson looked at Adela carefully.

“···? What? Turn it off, turn it off.”

Adela, however, covered her own breasts with an expression of disillusionment on her face.

Letting out her long sigh, Bjornson looked in the direction of her own estate.

Her wife’s face lit up.

***

Shuu Woo Woo Woong ─ Kung!

I landed in the center of a large city ruled by the Seven Deadly Sins of Anger, Greed, and Gluttony.

I landed straight in the place where the followers of the Seven Deadly Sins were, wearing a suit like this, and silently glared at the three Seven Deadly Sins who stood up from the throne.

Soon they stood up and raised the corners of their mouths and spoke.

【That’s reckless. There are 100,000 people in this city supporting us, so you want to deal with all three of us at once?】

···It is a hostile but valid point.

As he pointed out, according to the rule, all the humans here should be put to sleep and then the Seven Deadly Sins should be punished.

Only in this way can the winning rate be increased even a little.

【The stronger the sandbag, the better.】

But that is the mentality of the weak.

In any case, it is not a consideration for me, who can become the strongest ‘only as a devil’.

No matter what kind of crap you’re talking about, just press it down with all your strength and that’s it.

【There’s a lot to experiment with, so don’t die quickly. There are many features I want to try out.】

So I pressed the suit switch button on my chest.

Now is the time to showcase the ‘nano suit’ that has been under development.
