The Daily Life of the Inventor in Another World

Chapter 54: Chapter 54: Blonde Maids



"Wait-Wait-Wait! Don't kill him! Please!!!"

A blonde girl came out from the debris and when saw the rifle pointed at the blond man, she immediately panicked.

"(What now? And you are? Hmm, right, Le Fay Pendragon? A witch… you don't have anything useful to offer…)"

The blonde's eyes widened and when she heard that, she was instantly horrified! She quickly started to think. She looked at the other blonde, the Joan of Arc spirit holder…

"I am a genius at magic! I was part of the Golden Dawn! I can teach magic if you want!" She quickly said what was on top of her head.

"(Hmm, are you? Very well… I will spare this guy, in turn, your life belongs to me. You will be signing a contract that will bind your magic. If you break it you will lose your magic or in the worst case, you will die. Is that clear?)"

She sighed in relief after hearing that. This was not perfect but it was the only good way to get out of this extremely bad situation.

"Y-Yes! I accept!"

"(Good. Still, though, I will be taking these swords. Terrorists should not be holding any of them in the first place.)" Marcus said happily, most likely using the best pretext to do so. Even though some people could already call him a renegade and a danger to most Pantheons…

Well, not that it matters now anyway…

Le Fay could only sigh after seeing Excalibur Ruler and Caliburn getting snatched just like that…

They only just found Excalibur Ruler! And Caliburn? There was no need to even think about what kind of repercussion this will cause!

It will cause a shockwave big enough to go through the whole supernatural world when the factions eventually hear that the strongest holy sword was lost!

Still, her brother is alive, that's all that matters!

Le Fay joined Jeanne as they watched their new Boss? Master? finished off the rest of the Hero Faction…

And all they could do was stand by his side and be in fear, even awe at how, regardless of the original strength of the heroes like Georg, they were just slaughtered!

After it was all done. Both of them were encased in magic circles, of which Le Fay found extremely fascinating as they looked Devil in origin but they were not devil magic? It was extremely weird… It was like he emulated the devil magic factors and made them work with human hands…

'Whoever this guy is, he is good. Very good. I shouldn't be excited about the prospect of new magic in this situation but this is just too hard to resist!' The younger blonde of the pair had a very hard time trying to not get excited by this.

After all, she had just been kidnapped by some super scary dude who single-handedly made the whole hero group of theirs just disappear!

~~~~~~Back in the Garage~~~~~~

Jeanne was baffled and confused on why they were in Eastern Europe. She was able to make some sense of where they were flying.

She saw Istanbul, it was not hard with the landmarks like the Hagia Sophia or the bridge connecting Europe to Asia Minor. Then of course there was the Black Sea and she also saw the city of Kyiv...well, she assumed that it was the Ukrainian capital since the city was big and there was a large river flowing through the middle.

And in all, she could guess that they were somewhere close to the Baltic Sea which is also quite close to the Norse Pantheon territory.

The confusion only increased when they landed in some residential area of a small town in God knows where…

Then her eyes widened when she saw parts of the driveway just going down into the ground. This looked like the type of supervillain secret base that you would see in the Bond movies…

'Holy shit… this guy is totally like those supervillains from the movies with absurd tech and some big goals of world domination! I am kind of excited and terrified!' Jeanne thought to herself as she followed the guy who quite honestly kidnapped her…

Her eyes slightly widened when she saw the inside, there was another armour similar to the one he was currently wearing. Well identical except for the colours and the wings…

Or not… since she just saw the energy wings retract… there was only a colour difference. The stationed armour was simply grey, while the one he was wearing was golden and white…

Moments later her kidnapper raised his hands and mechanical arms came out from the ground and started removing the armour, piece by piece.

"That's so cool…" Jeanne said with barely hidden awe. This was like one of those sci-fi movies…

"They are magical too… I can sense magic...I can sense magic everywhere… This man… he is terrifying…" Le Fay said with wide eyes as she scanned the surroundings.

"Yeah? I guess he truly is a TV supervillain-type…" Jeanne replied after hearing what Le Fay just said.

"Most likely… we still need to know what he does and what his goals are…" The younger blond said with a nod. She kind of, sort of, can see what Jeanne means.

Once the armour was taken off they could finally see who it was.

"No way! You are like, totally my age!!!" Jeanne said with disbelief.

"Indeed. Which means you have wasted your whole life…" He said with a shrug.

This was quite a jab to her as she quickly realised soon enough… that, yeah...she should not be acting like they are friends with someone who was about to kill her and take her Sacred Gear…

"I suppose, I deserve that one. My apologies." The older blonde from the pair apologised with a quick bow.

"So, you can learn etiquette after all. Not bad. Still you will be having a teacher soon enough to teach you all that you need to become a proper maid." He said in quite a smug tone, which quickly made the reincarnation of Joan of Arc feel cold shivers going down her spine.

Who will be teaching her!?

Soon enough the pair of blondes saw two women approaching...one of them was dressed in a maid outfit.

"No way… those are… Serafall Leviathan and Grayfia Lucifuge!" Le Fay exclaimed in disbelief, and Jeanne quickly joined her when she heard those names.

What are the pair of extremely powerful devils doing here!?

"Indeed they are my pillars… I suppose I should introduce myself since the two of you don't even know my name."

Le Fay had a shocking feeling in her gut when she heard him call these devils his pillars…

She only ever knew one human who called the devils his pillars…

"My name is Marcus Goldman and I am what these devil ladies call the second coming of Solomon. The King of Magic. Well, more like the King of Inventions and Engineering...but whatever, I can stick with magic." He said the last part with a shrug.

"...But...how? He died ages ago! And no remnants of his were left! I have been reading up on him for years! His work...his magic… all known human cabals and organisations wanted to replicate it!" Le Fay said with disbelief and awe, and many other emotions that were rolling out from her. Here she was, talking to someone who has all of Solomon's magic and legacy!

"Hmm? Who was he?" Jeanne asked with a look that said that she had no clue who they were talking about…

"Solomon was the only guy in history to enslave the 72 devils pillars from right under the original Lucifer's nose. He walked to the Underworld and left with 72 devils who listened to him till his death." Marcus explained as simply as possible to Jeanne.

"What our Lord just said is an extremely abridged version! But, yes, what he just said is the truth." Le Fay added her own two bits.

Marcus slightly raised his eyebrow hearing how Le Fay was already addressing him as Lord…

'I guess the old man has such an influence on human mages…'
