The Royal Military Academy's Impostor Owns a Dungeon [BL] novel Chapter 383

Chapter 383: Rejects

Marquise Julienne felt her soul leave her body.

Because her baby was popping out things like he’s never really heard of the word "scarcity."

Because on the bare table, without any sort of grounding material, Ollie Mylor was placing Luca’s rejects upon rejects.

Yes, rejects.

"???"

"Brother...?" Luca blinked, confused. "Aren’t those the discarded pieces from the hangar?" asked Luca, who was wondering why his brother would bring those of all things?

If he wanted to bring something out, why not bring out the ones that actually made the cut?

"Did you not find the ones that passed the testing?" blinked the golden-eyed mechanic who was spouting slanderous comments that would have gotten the knees of several masters weak had they heard his words.

"Oh no, brother, I have them here too. Just so we could show everyone what made YOUR cut."

"Huh?"

"Julie?" asked Marquis Osmond, staring at his wife, whose expression now resembled someone watching history being rewritten in front of her.

Now, he was pretty sure that what was on the table had value because even the rock outside could be auctioned, but the question was more of what kind of value. But with his wife looking like that, should he be nervous?

He probably should be because his son didn’t stop at placing parts down, but pulled out a portable testing device before taking out a few other parts.

Beep.

[M7-R42J9 Rotor, Durability: 70%, Calibration Fidelity: 55%]

Seeing the display result, Ollie replaced it with another item.

Beep.

[M7-S42J9 Rotor Stabilizer, Durability: 65%, Calibration Fidelity: 53%]

But he didn’t stop there as he tried a few more that roughly gave the same results.

"Since many of you are mecha pilots, you probably understand what those values mean, but for those who don’t, it’s like this."

"Durability measures how long a part would last. Major things could change this, such as material grade, synergy between mixed-grade materials, environmental exposure, and overall usage or damage."

"Then you have the Calibration Fidelity, which is usually important to the pilots because it indicates how precisely a part would respond to system inputs or commands."

"If it’s too low, you’ll need to adjust your instincts, timing, and aim—basically, you’ll be fighting the machine too."

"But then we have one more thing we’ve learned as part of our additional study," boasted the proud blonde who finally managed to say the word "study" the way it was meant to be used.

"It’s Material Resonance. While I can’t show you how that would be tested here, I can tell you that it represents the part’s compatibility with the rest of the system."

"Son, what do you mean?"

"Mom, see, when we make or repair mechas, we just pick a part from the similarly manufactured models and then change it up to make it connect, right?" freewebnoveℓ.com

"And that’s why spiritual energy is used when repairing because, somehow, we need the materials to fuse so we can create the energy channels by force."

"But my good brother here has been doing it differently," he said, arms on his waist, as he looked at Luca proudly.

"For one, he picks the material with the highest material resonance, then uses that to make the components."

"But instead of using metal alloys, we try to use ores, beasts, or plant materials. And the energy savings as well as calibration fidelity are something else!"

His eyes widened as he nodded slowly to emphasize his point. But the best way to do it was to just show them. So, the little mechanic placed another set of parts that looked a tad bit different.

More vibrant?

They weren’t sure. Because whatever they were thinking got stomped on by the number on the testing machine.

[Unregistered Rotor, Durability: 85%, Calibration Fidelity: 75%]

[Unregistered Rotor Stabilizer, Durability: 83%, Calibration Fidelity: 75%]

Bang!
