Chapter 132: Date (3)
Chapter 132: Date (3)
~Jack POV~
*Thud*
Landing down on the sandy home and making sure to edit some of my <Territory Manipulation> to let Ruby enter inside she only blushed at me throughout the entire time before finally speaking to me, "Did you really have to carry me princess style with everyone watching… it feels like going to Beacon all over again."
Smirking at this landing down on my island I introduced Ruby to my home island while I scratch the back of my head, "Haha… yeah. Although isn't always a girl, dreamed to be carried like a princess?"
At this Ruby pout as she turns her head but then sees the view of the island with genuine surprise on her face with a smile, "Maybe… but wow… This must be a really good home and – Is that a facility?!"
Noticing my lab and the workshop I smirked at this allowing Ruby to have a free course of seeing my little project in the makings, "Ah. I see you managed to find my personal lab and workshop where I keep my projects. Actually, I was wondering if you want our date to continue in my workshop seeing where I made my Mechas."
Ruby soon turns around me with a starry-eyed expression on my face drooling a bit wanting to see, "Wait that's the place where you – Yes! Me! Need! To! Know! Me! Want! Know! Mama! Want! Know! Big! Metal! Dragon!"
Ah…
This is adorable she's only speaking in words.
Patting her head when Ruby stopped her excited expression as she blushes embarrassed I replied to her honestly, "No worries. I was originally planning to let you see where I built Kiryu. Now then please follow me."
Ruby nods taking my hand as I began to show her around my own island.
Maybe showing off my stuff would impress Ruby and be a safe test to gauge people reactions.
Guess I'm about to find out.
Hope she likes the tour through my island and hopefully the dinner portion of it soon enough.
Sigh…
I just hope I know what I'm doing on my date and how to explain to Ruby about her mother soon enough…

~Ruby POV~
Whoa!
Everything in Jack's place is really crazy cool!
It's like everything here is beyond what Remnant can do especially with him showing the construction of the Kiryu place as it was really big…
Like an echo kind of big.
Hehe…
After that Jack began to take me to look around the facility seeing his robots guarding and cleaning the place up.
That was when my attention turns to Jack as he smiled brightly behind the door as he spoke to me happily, "Now then Ruby. I hereby present to you one of my newest projects I have them in making. Something better than those Atlas pricks – "
Something tells me he isn't the biggest of fans of Atlas considering he curses at them from time to time.
But choosing to ignore that for the time being I next see him open the door as Jack began to open his arms to show me his new project, "—I present to you Ruby to Project: Knightmare. Knightmare Frame Model: Gloucester! Better, bots than Atlas has and very proficient power suits."
*Shii*
Opening the door my eyes widen seeing the majestic parts of some kind of mech in the making with some parts lying over and gears needed.
Ahh…
Mama wants…
But simply looking at this… Knightmare: Gloucester in the making it's really beautiful despite its dull color choice but then again it's still being made.
Seems like this model has been painted a flat, dull purple, with some hulky metals but wait what does it use as a fuel source and…
Staring directly into the middle of the chest I see a light blue triangle-like core at the center of the Gloucester model making me curious what this is since I have never seen it before, "Hey Jack what Dust does this Knightmare use anyway? From the way I can from its color I can tell it's not Ice Dust they aren't useable for energy sources only Lightening Dust?"
Honestly getting curious about what I got next was honestly shocking when he mouthed to me with an innocent smile on his face, "Dust? Nope. What I'm using is a completely new energy source I plan to introduce in the future called an Arc Reactor."
Arc what now?
Trying to see if he was joking with me I see wasn't.
A new energy source?
Really?
So this Arc Reactor really isn't Dust energy fuel?!
Blinking in surprise Jack began to use his Scroll as hard light constructs soon showed up on the screen showing it to me as he explains to me while I read through the info, "Yeah. An Arc Reactor. This little baby would no doubt kick off an energy race that is gonna dwarf the arms race of any Kingdom. This is something big, something so big that it was gonna make the Dust Bomb look like a battery."
What!
Hearing his claim, I began to read thoroughly of what he – what…
No…
My eyes could only widen seeing the gigawatts and energy this thing produces is insane… this could power a whole entire building for a complete year or possibly more if Remnant used this as an energy source…
I can just imagine the uniqueness and energy-based weapons if people would be able to learn of… of… of this masterpiece!
To create such crazy energy without Dust is insane as it is but… but this is really another level of innovation that can change Remnant as a whole because of this item…
My heart could only beat faster seeing the plans it made as well as an unknown undiscovered element that the projected name by Jack himself called Badassium with the element and the creation of it redacted.
But even still all of this…
A new means and clean energy that isn't Dust fueled is… unbelievable but the facts are staring at me in the face…
"This is amazing…"
That was all I could mutter at this masterpiece that Jack has in his home but that was when he whispered into my ear with me trembling in excitement, "If you think that's cool? How about seeing what I use to fuel my home underground?"
Now he has me sold.
I. Need. To. Know!
Mama wants to know, please!
I'll even give you my secret cookie jar!
Walking around avoiding the creation of the Knightmare: Gloucester we moved ahead to see more of what Jack has in his own lab and private workshop with me in wonder and awe seeing it all.
Following him more I began to see a strange device we enter with one of those Arc Reactors attached to it makes me curious, "Hey Jack what exactly is that you have there? I never seen something like that before?"
Getting his attention immediately he turns around before explaining to me what I saw as what he calls an Arc Fabricator to me, "Huh? Oh, you mean my Arc Fabricator. That little piece of machinery is really helpful with the design capabilities to build or assemble almost anything if given a design. Like, say help me create the Knightmare Frames."
Oh…
That actually sounds really cool to have and use.
Hmm…
Maybe it's ok to ask him about it if I could use it to see if I can create some parts for my own Crescent Rose… and maybe something for him…
Going downstairs further I began to see what Jack meant as I see what Jack meant seeing the revolutionized redesigned Industrial Arc Reactor to power his own home… no Lightening Dust needed…
No Dust is needed…
Wow…
Trembling at this Jack really did something truly… unbelievable…
Glancing at it memorized by all of this it's really… really something out of a fairy tale to me something that most people haven't bothered with in what literal years couldn't do but Jack simply thought of this into reality…
With this Jack could really be a beacon of clean energy.
Ugh…
Internally groaning at myself for that bad Yang pun I could only see what Jack is capable of and wonder…
How far will he go?
How high can he rise?
How –
"Yo Remnant to Ruby you there?"
"Huh?"
Interrupting my thoughts I turned around to Jack and began to talk to him with literal admiration on my face when I talk to him, "Jack you… you… with this, you can really help Remnant with this. Your Arc Reactor… you can really revolutionize everything that we know today about energy. It's… really unbelievable. All of this!"
Gesturing at this Jack merely scoffed at that but soon smirked when I felt my heart freeze when he spoke to me of this helping Remnant another way, "Tch. I wouldn't be too sure. I'm not even sure I would introduce this yet since like you said it's unbelievable that people would try to want it. But I only showed it to you because I trust you. But if you really needed to be impressed with something that might help Remnant… in that case, it's about time I show you an invention that will change Remnant forever."
Change…
Remnant…
Forever…
I couldn't help but feel shocked hearing that but… I want to know if Jack isn't going to use the Arc Reactor then what could top that with what he has in mind?
I'm really curious about what my b-boyfriend has in store… and possibly falling for him harder for what he has…
Mama really likes his big tools.
