After just an interval of 1 day since appointnt, Max Elden and his sister proved to Rex why they were part of the elite custodians of the Elden family.
They did not only create a perfect blueprint to store all the material goods of the gang ranging from the mansion to the workshop, but the greatest work that they did in this ti was fishing out the snitches in the gang.
In the Gundam Shelter, it was natural to have snitches who took any opportunity to take advantage of any privilege that they had to get more benefits.
There were lots of them in the Berserk Gang also. Normal snitches would not require such attention, Max was able to fish out 8 of these infectious warriors who already embezzled over a million credits from the gang.
On seeing the list with illustration images that was placed before his desk, Rex smiled and comnded the 2 siblings' work as sincerely as he could.
After comnding them, he finally made his decision. "You'll only penalize one of them".
"They may have stolen a lot, even sold confidential secrets of the gang but its natural here in the Gundam Shelter. If I start my tenure by trying to instill fear in the warriors, I predict that my reign would not last too long".
"Want I instead want to achieve is to put that impression in the warriors that they cannot escape scot-free after engaging in acts like this".
"The chosen one will be the scapegoat, he'll be punished which will serve as a warning to the others. If they are wise, the other warriors will adjust their behaviors and be put in line".
"If they don't, well, taking the punishnt is their choice".
"Of course, the punishnt is death".
Just a day after the appointnts, Max and Stark's works were exposed to the other warriors of the gang as the scapegoat was taken to the execution ground.
Rex was there personally as he took the book and started reading out the atrocities that the warrior did during his ti as a mber of the gang.
As one of the rare senior mbers of the gang who was an Interdiate mystic warrior, seeing him at the execution ground shook the other warriors.
The fear of the warriors did not last long though as after 4 minutes into the reading, the other warriors of the gang were riled up and angry as they shouted slogans for the scapegoat to be killed and beheaded.
This warrior committed more than enough atrocities to warrant his death.
2 minutes later, Rex fulfilled just that which they asked. To drive ho a point, Rex personally climbed the execution ground as he was the executioner for today.
After placing the axe on the warrior's neck, Rex ignored him and addressed the crowd. "Today shall serve as a lesson to every other warrior".
"In the Berserk Gang, we are brothers, we are expected to look after ourselves. Whoever tries to blackmail us again for benefits, you will be subjected to a fate that is even worse than this".
Without saying another word, Rex tightened his fists on the axe as he finally raised it up before bringing it down in one smooth motion that severed a head.
As the head of this Interdiate mystic warrior rolled on the ground, so of the warriors were chilled while the majority of them yelled excitedly.
With that, Rex finally left the stage.
…
It was a day already since the encounter with Gaud.
Having spoken with the 2 Elden descendants and understanding Gaud's current situation a bit, Rex and his companions were able to make accurate deductions on the schedule of their enemy.
This was an important point to direct their planning for this battle.
According to Max and Stark, Gaud had no reason to spend so much ti here in the Gundam Shelter. The radar of the Elden family extended far and wide.
The faster he settled the problem and complete his mission of killing the 2 descendants, the better it was for him since it would massively reduce the chances of what he did being discovered.
If he was discovered, not only would Gaud's mystic career officially be over, there was an extrely high chance of him losing his life too.
The Elden family like most other mystic families that were established in the Great Shelters had a great collection of high-grade mystic warriors that ranged from the Advanced level to the Super level, and even in so cases beyond.
Gaud was strong, but he still did not have the balls to offend the Elden family.
This was why Rex and Aragorn predicted that Gaud would still want to end this mission as fast as possible, which pointed to the next few days.
In the next few days, there was a higher chance of Gaud attacking. This was why any plan that Rex and his companions took were focused on the imdiate.
For the next few days, Princess Elanor and Rex were in charge of organizing the gang for the eventual battle since they were the least busy of the trio.
During these 2 days, Rex literally turned the Berserk Gang mansion into a defensive bulwark. The walls of the mansion underwent ergency repairs, and all the repairs were focused on improving the wall's defensive capabilities.
While Rex and Princess Elanor prepared, Aragorn also prepared, the only difference was that the location of his preparation was in the Berserk workshop.
…
Locked inside his personal workshop, the sound of whirring machinery reverberated in the background as Aragorn worked alongside his assistants.
After a few weeks of working together already, Aragorn already recognized the most talented of the mystic warriors that volunteered to be his assistants.
From these dozens, he was able to choose 8 who were the most competent of them all. They were the ones who also assisted him in his latest assignnt.
Modifying a normal mystic sword to beco a chanical mystic sword was easier than creating an entirely new chanical mystic sword, but still, the difficulty was at a level that choked Aragorn.
On the first day after he started work, alongside his assistants, they spent 8 hours drawing the perfect blueprint for Berserker that the ch core could comfortably work with to draw out its full potential.
After 8 grueling hours, he arrived at the perfect blueprint.
Aragorn gave the mystic sword 2 theoretical chanical abilities. The first chanical ability that he gave it was the morphing ability where the mystic sword could break up its basic configuration into 2 different forms.
The first form was the Composite Sword form. In this form, a different perspective was presented for Rex to better express his incredible swordsmanship.
The 2nd form was the Triple Sword form. In this form, the sword hilt was shifted to the middle and 3 blades ca out from it in 3 different sides.
As for the 2nd theoretical chanical ability that Aragorn gave Berserker, it enabled the sword to break up into dozens of short swords that Rex could control through an electromagnetism chanism through his mystic energy.
Before making any of these decisions on the chanical abilities, like a good chanic working for his client, Aragorn did well to consult with Rex.
He had a lot of other much more sophisticated and ingenious ideas that he intended to implent on Berserker through the ch core, but Rex rejected all of them through a reason that he could not refute.
No matter how powerful those ideas that he intended to implent were, if they did not allow him to express his swordsmanship in full, Rex rejected them all.
Rex was an Advanced mystic swordsman; this was the first thing that he was known for everywhere when he was being described.
Though Aragorn felt reluctant, the client's wishes ca first and he took up the 2 theoretical chanical abilities once he got Rex's consent.
For the past 2 days, he and his assistants were hard at work as they gave their best to realize the theories that they already assud to be true.
As his first chanical creation where he was the lead chanic, Aragorn experienced a lot of setbacks but his competence enabled him to improvise through them all as he also learned a lot through his mistakes.
With each setback, he learned sothing new to take him further.
After going to the forge over a dozen tis in just 2 days, Aragorn finally hit the target that he wanted. Everything aligned as the real craftsmanship finally began in the forge where they spent 4 hours without any rest in between.
Inside the forge, 8 mystic warriors surrounded the burning forge and the sword in the middle as they helped the lead chanic who directed everything.
4 hours later, cold water was finally poured on the sword as mist filled the air. When the mist subsided, a new Berserker was presented before them.
Berserker's upgrade was a massive success, Aragorn basked in the glory of this mont as he soon fell into a mont of epiphany.
Aragorn's breakthrough started after this achievent.
