The Mech Touch novel Chapter 7535

Chapter 7535: The Two Mothers

Weeks passed by. The four Larkinsons worked almost nonstop every day they remained inside the System Space.

Though they regularly spent a couple of hours on rest and relaxation, they always felt guilty for wasting their time on less productive activities. They only reserved the bare minimum on leisure time as every wasted day diminished their AP earnings a little further.

Ves alone could have never challenged all of those Missions by himself.

Mech designer or not, there were limits to how much he took pleasure in exercising his craft.

Most of his works in completing his Missions did not possess any commercial viability. Though Ves gained bits and pieces of inspiration that could guide him into designing his future mechs, none of the mechs he designed during the ongoing marathon could be used outside of their very narrow purpose.

That sapped a lot of his passion and motivation for his current work. Ves was the sort of mech designer who delighted in serving real clients and customers. He measured his success by measuring the impact on society attributed to his works.

From realizing the hidden potential of mech pilots to contributing to the decisive defeats of serious adversaries, Ves had long enjoyed the feeling that he was changing the course of human history for the better since he had begun his career.

Even his most humble virtual mech designs managed to improve many people’s lives.

Venerable Joshua never could have made it so far without getting affected by the huge influence of living mechs.

Perhaps Ves’ rise and proliferation of his living mechs may have displaced the careers of many highly intelligent and capable individuals, but so what?

The mech industry rarely took pity on the losers!

If other rivals failed to match the expectations set by their customers, then they deserved to get pushed down by his superior products!

Yet all of that excitement only took place in real space.

Here inside the completely isolated System Space, his works only had one recipient from the beginning to the end. Its requirements were simultaneously harsh and strange at the same time. Insane demands such as insisting that a mech design must have a completely functional secondary cockpit completely threw the mech designers off their usual game.

Ves did not entirely dislike these oddball requirements. They added a bit of fun and interest to the work sessions.

He and the other three mech designers couldn’t help but fall into discussion about these oddities from time to time.

Though they tried to keep their talking to a minimum in order to prevent Gloriana and the two Journeyman from taking too much credit, it was impossible for them to refrain from talking entirely.

They were still human. They were still mech designers. Nothing delighted them more than to sit down and have a good discussion on the future direction of mechs and whether an eccentric feature might become dominant one day.

The four Larkinsons held these kinds of talks frequently enough that they developed a new sense of respect and understanding of each other’s background and expertise.

After all, spending so many weeks and months in a common living and working space had a way of melting barriers.

Though the four already knew each other pretty well and worked together many times in the past, it was different this time.
