The Max Level Hero Has Returned!

“Hand it over now when you still have the chance. I don’t like unnecessary killing,” Milpieu said calmly.

Davey quietly pushed the breast of the naked girl, who was lying on the floor.

-What is this pervert do…

Just as everyone was staring at Davey in bewilderment…

Hiss!! The little girl’s chest opened up and the biomechanical devices inside her began to operate as if they had been waiting for this moment. The space inside was just big enough for a small heart. Without hesitation, Davey looked at the mechanical heart, the God of Machinery, and pushed it in.

“Oh no. It’s already been attached!”

Davey didn’t care about some Milpieu or whatever; his only focus was on this little silver-haired girl. It would be good if it was attached to the Megatron, but he was curious as to what this girl was with the heart attached.

The moment Milpieu was going to say something as Davey played around, the beautiful silver-haired girl who had her eyes closed like she was dead…suddenly flinched with great force.

* * *

Everyone went silent at Davey’s unexpected actions.

Davey kind of understood that they could’ve been curious about the result of his instinctive actions. Especially, he could see Milpieu, the weird half-blooded vampire who was up against him, look at the little girl with sparkling eyes while pretending to be disinterested.

Click! Shirrr!! Then, something inside the little girl began connecting with the mechanical heart as a strange sound resonated from the hatch, the only thing that was open and showing the interior. 90% of her body was biological and natural, but the other 10% was made from an artificial metal. The rusty-looking one was adamantium, and the white metal that had a faint sheen to it was orichalcum. It definitely seemed luxurious, which was fitting for the ancient civilization.

Click!! As the mechanical heart, which was slightly vibrating, fully attached itself to the girl, the open hatch automatically closed and started to stitch itself together. The skin stuck to each other without leaving any space and looked just like regular skin when it finished transforming. The girl’s breasts, which had a crack that could be opened like a machine not too long ago, had disappeared, and only pale skin like any other human being was left.

After a short silence, the girl’s fingers that had been twitching actually moved.

Ching. As she moved her fingers, a golden ring floated up onto her head; it looked like the halo of an angel.

“Access code. Activation. Main power input complete,” the girl opened her mouth and mumbled quietly with her eyes still closed. Perhaps it was because of her small size but even her voice sounded a little young. Since she was still in her teens, it was inevitable that both her appearance and voice would feel young.

Clang… Chime! The girl began standing up while Davey stared at her blankly. As she did, the garments he had covered her with slipped off, exposing her pale body. Davey couldn’t tell if the little girl was a biological golem or a very strange kind, but all the parts needed for reproduction were present on her body.

Then, the little girl’s clear blue eyes opened; a million kinds of letters appeared and disappeared multiple times. She stared straight ahead in silence, then turned to glance over at Davey. “Main program booting complete. Rinne starting…”

“Rinne?”

The girl didn’t even understand what she had said, but she stood up in an adorable manner and stared straight at Davey. Then, she reached one hand out toward him and slowly blinked. She said calmly, “Starting linking. Imprinting DNA of master.”

Weak sparks popped from the little girl’s fingertips, which touched Davey’s neck. With a prickling sensation, the girl’s blue eyes lit up once.

“Imprinting of master complete. Current time… Beep! Data error. Rinne, requiring refreshing of new data.” While speaking, the little girl named Rinne approached Davey and touched him with her fingertips again.

“Starting connection. Attempting to make contact with the mucus membrane of the nose.” Then, Rinne shoved her fingers inside Davey’s nose even before he could react.

“Keugh?!”

However, even the smallest of fingers wouldn’t be able to fit inside one’s nostrils.

“Failure to connect. As a second-best option, starting to attempt making contact with the mucus membrane of the mouth.” Rinne quickly pulled her fingers out of Davey’s nostrils and shoved her hand into his mouth.

“Hup?!”

Everyone who was there frowned horribly at that sight.

Milpieu, who was guarding Davey, stared at the girl with wide eyes. Then, she started breathing heavily. “I—Interesting!”

Whoosh!!!

‘What’s with making contact with the mucus membrane?’

The finger that had just entered Davey’s mouth was the one poking around in his nose a moment ago.

When Davey reflexively took her hand out, Rinne stared at him with an emotionless face. With a hint of puzzlement, Rinne asked, “Master, refreshing Rinne’s data. Why aren’t you allowing it?”

“Enough. It’s gross; what are you doing?”

“Rinne: able to collect necessary basic data from direct contact with the mucous membrane of the owner.”

“So, you shoved your fingers up my nostrils?”

Rinne tilted her head in confusion. However, she didn’t look at Davey in that way for long and turned her head when she sighed satisfactorily. “Certain data collection complete. Vampire: Master’s subject of elimination.”

‘How did it take data from me?’ Davey was already full of excitement, since Rinne had spoken as if she was going to fight at any moment.

Snapping out of it, Milpieu began releasing her power of blood from the blade of her hand with her fingers spread out.

Milpieu, a half-blooded vampire, seemed like she was of powerful rank, but her power was probably on the weaker side of that rank. After all, she was a half-blood.

“You are going to fight me?”

“Enemy of Master. Combat weapon Rinne will eliminate.”

“Every one of you is interesting. Let me study you.”

“Result of analysis: it looks like the enemy has an interest in studying Rinne’s body.”

Davey nodded at Rinne, who looked back at him like she didn’t know what to do.

‘I should let her try if she wants to.’

“Can you get rid of her?” Davey asked Rinne.

“Result of search: it looks like Rinne will win.”

“Alright, then. Try beating her.”

“Command accepted,” Rinne spoke calmly. Then, the halo above her head began to sparkle and spin. At the same time, the halo doubled in size and a million numbers began passing through her blue eyes.

“Interesting. Come with me. I can give you a lot more data. You need contact with my mucus membrane? I can help you…” Milpieu said.

“Rinne declines the offer following Master’s command. Vampires are the target of elimination.” Rinne spoke calmly and raised her hand toward Milpieu.

Whoosh… Something fascinating began happening. Particles began gathering in the air like holograms, creating something large.

“What is that?!”

“I… In the air where there’s nothing…”

“Wow… This is another thing that is unexplainable with current knowledge.” Davey thought that his mumbling probably expressed what everyone else was feeling right now.

Perhaps the ancient civilization ten thousand years ago was a civilization that was completely different from now, and one that was extremely developed in a way. Although, there was no way of knowing how a civilization like that had come to an end and simply disappeared.

“Light turret. Linking complete. Targeting. 2.1% chance of elimination on hit. Expecting increase in the probability of elimination with continuous hits.”

As soon as Rinne stopped talking, Milpieu instinctively jumped away after noticing that something was off. Like the Master level vampire she was, her abilities of detecting danger were quite advanced as well.

“Launch.”

Zing! With a very short sound, a blue ray of energy flew into the gigantic hall like it was going to cut the vampire in half.

* * *

Zing!!

Boom!!!!

Over a dozen rays of light flew into the hall in seconds. Once Rinne’s attacks began with loud explosions, Milpieu was running around trying to dodge them, unable to even react properly.

“Kyahh!!”

“You lunatic.”

Lucia and Sio didn’t have the skills to dodge those rays, so Davey had no choice but to block it for them.

Boom!! A strange, fuzzy feeling traveled down Davey’s fingertips when he swatted away the rays of energy with Red Ribbon by a close call.

Rinne’s output of power was no joke. If this was just one shot…

-It’s about 90% of the entire power of the Megatron. Considering the continuous firepower, it is an unbelievable level of performance that is incomparable to the golem.

As if she had read Davey’s mind, Perserque provided an exact comparison analysis.

“W—What is this?!” Lucia, who couldn’t understand what was going on, screamed. It was natural that she wasn’t able to comprehend the situation; there was the sudden appearance of a vampire, and a girl named Rinne who was shooting multiple rays of energy at the vampire.

“I didn’t know the Deus Ex Machina’s performance would be this unbelievably strong.”

-It means that not only are the stats of the mechanical heart amazing, but the girl’s are as well.

It seemed that it wasn’t called the golem version of the Stone of the Sage for nothing.

Davey thought about this in complete objectivity; to be exact, Davey didn’t think that he could make something that powerful with his current knowledge and understanding, like how he couldn’t make Surtr’s divine sword by himself. Perhaps it might’ve been possible for Eva, his alchemy teacher. ‘I wonder what kind of person the owner of this ancient ruin was.’

“It\'s amazing firepower… I want it more and more!”

However, Davey could see that it had a limit no matter how outstanding it was. The first limitation was that it very much lacked combat data. Another was…

“Rinne is weak when she is up against someone strong.”

The rays that Rinne shot out were strong; they had the strength of the magic that an advanced 4th circle or a 5th circle mage would be able to use. However, she couldn’t affect anyone at the Master level. Of course, she could harm Masters if she hit them, since there was something distinct about the rays… But that was only if her target, Milpieu was hit…

Of course, Rinne looked like she had potential to grow and beat someone at the Master level as she gains more data and becomes more united with the mechanical heart since this wasn’t the entirety of her power. Rinne was a complete unit that was completely different from the Megatron, which had a clear limit as its output of power was fixed by magic stones. Davey had hoped for a commanding unit since he couldn’t manage and order golems that had no will; he was glad he was able to get it now.

Click. Davey thought that he had seen enough of Rinne’s firepower, and that it was time he set out. Although she was only a half-blooded vampire, Milpieu, that pink-haired girl, was not to be taken lightly.

Milpieu was probably testing Rinne, unable to hold back her intrigue, because she had judged Rinne’s attacks to be somewhat threatening.

“Sir Davey?” Lucia, who opened her eyes wide as soon as Davey got up, called out to him.

“Well, I am extremely satisfied right now, but I won’t be able to get rid of the vampire with her.”

Lucia seemed puzzled at Davey’s words. Milpieu, who thankfully hadn’t heard Davey, was analyzing Rinne while running all over the place and dodging her attacks.

The moment Milpieu, who was dodging Rinne’s never-ending rays of energy, came into reach, Davey mumbled as he slightly pulled out Blue Ribbon from her sheath. “It’s fine that you are intrigued, but that’s mine. Don’t try to take it.”

“Hup?!” Milpieu exclaimed.

[Transcendental Longsword]

[Fast Unsheathing]

[Great Moonlight Sword]

There was no prohibition on someone intruding on a one-to-one battle. Davey instantly got behind Milpieu and pulled out his sword. ‘Watch your back.’

In just a split second, a blue flash of light cut through the surroundings and slashed not only her, but Rinne’s attacks that were targeted toward Milpieu.
