Chapter 4010 Family Hierarchy
After hearing that his new sister would be willing to reciprocate his gift, Ves became a lot more driven to succeed in his first spiritual firearm project!
He worked faster and more diligently than before. He put extra effort into channeling his artistic flair and made sure that Helena would become happy and delighted by his gift for a long time.
Making his transformable spiritual firearm as pretty as possible was only a sideshow, however. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
The true challenge was realizing all of his ideas for his Death Lotus!
Ves was embarking on radical new territory here. While he was just creating another living spiritual product on the surface, the power and threat of his new spiritual firearm was much different from his previous creations!
He had never developed a spiritual product for the purpose of creating the most lethal killing weapon possible.
His previous products were all centered around creating new spiritual entities that possessed their own personalities and could grow by themselves over time.
While it was possible for design spirits such as the Illustrious One and companion spirits such as Blinky to develop powerful new attacks, the crucial distinction here was that they were not designed for this purpose from the start!
The Death Lotus was different. It wasn't as lively as his previous spiritual products, but Ves believed that focusing on its lethality and power above all else would allow him to create an unparalleled spiritual weapon, one that still retained enough living aspects to grow and evolve over time!
In order to make sure that he was able to implement all of his ambitious design targets, he did not hesitate to lift up his Hammer of Brilliance and give himself a good whack on the head!
"Ouch!"
Even though he bumped his skull a bit harder due to his enthusiasm, the pain was not as important as all of the inspiration he gained from connecting so many different ideas and solutions together!
His eyes fully lit up as his passion raged like a firestorm in the middle of a planet suffering from a heatwave.
The Death Lotus design seemed to bloom before his eyes. It not only possessed an increasingly more intricate internal design, but also gained numerous features that did not possess an equivalent in reality.
Though Ves added more experimental features and design solutions to the weapon design than he originally intended, he was confident that his efforts were not in vain!
In fact, it didn't matter if his work didn't quite work out the way he intended to. Since he intended to breathe life to the Death Lotus, it would become a living spiritual entity, thereby transforming its initial form into a living state that could constantly improve and correct itself through continuous growth and evolution!
This was the corrective nature of spiritual life. Through the power of growth, Ves felt assured that his Death Lotus would definitely reach its ambitious performance targets eventually.
It could even grow beyond the level that Ves envisioned by growing even further!
As long as Helena took good care of the weapon and made sure to feed it with her spiritual energy, the Death Lotus would slowly become more powerful and remarkable.
His sister would definitely be able to defend herself against even the most formidable threats from the Five Scrolls Compact in the future!
Of course, Ves understood that the Death Lotus had a long way to go before it could attain this level. The power of the Death Lotus was also highly dependent on the strength of its wielder. If Helena did not grow fast enough, then the power of her gun would become difficult to control.
As Ves tried to take all of this into consideration, Helena decided to play with Lucky while keeping an eye on her brother's work.
"Mother told me a bit about you. You're so handsome, Lucky. You must get all the lady cats."
"Meow." The gem cat arrogantly lifted his head while he settled on the spiritual manifestation's lap.
"Since Ves is my brother, you belong to me as well, isn't that right?"
"Meow…"
"Who do you listen to first, our mothers or Ves?"
"Meow!"
"That's right!" Helena smiled. "I should come next, do you agree, Lucky?"
"Meow."
"Ves should go last, of course. He's the runt in our family, though his creative talents are quite powerful. Nonetheless, that doesn't change the fact that he will need my protection going forward. He's too weak!"
"Meow meow!"
"Hm, you're partially right. His mechs and mech pilots are powerful, alright, but the reason why many of them are so strong is because they borrow the strength of other gods! If Ves didn't have access to deities such as Qilanxo, my mother and that odd Ylvaine person, he would have never made it this far! In the end, all he has ever done is borrowing the strength of others. He hasn't spent enough effort into improving his own strength."
"Meow meow meow."
"He's not a human anymore. There are many paths to ascension. Just because he calls himself a mech designer doesn't change the fact that he has far surpassed his mortal limitations. Every high-ranking mech designer is a god, essentially. The only difference is the degree to which they have surpassed their mortal limitations. My mothers have taught me that Star Designers are the scariest of all of them. Even I need to take a detour if I ever meet them in person!"
"Meeeoow!"
"Don't get me started on god pilots. They are combat freaks who are even more perverse. It's a miracle that they have emerged at all. There is no greater nemesis to a god than a warrior who can overpower any attack through limitless willpower. It is a pity that the final hurdle is so difficult to overcome. These powerful ace pilots must all brave death in the hopes that they can ascend through the force of their willpower alone."
A complicated expression appeared on her face. Though she had faith in her own strength and potential, entities at her level had learned to respect and fear the deities in human form known as god pilots.
"It's done!" Ves uttered as he just put the finishing touches to his spiritual firearm design!
