The Mech Touch novel Chapter 7544

Chapter 7544: The Initial Hurdle

Once the irrelevant people left, Ves remained in the System Space with Alexa.

The young Journeyman Mech Designer looked quite eager to start their collaboration work.

She had dreamed about realizing her proposal for numerous days, yet did not dare to place too much hope that she could successfully persuade the others in backing her idea.

After all, she herself knew how her plan hinged too much on a number of crucial assumptions.

If reality did not match the conditions demanded by her proposal, her hope of killing all of the deathborn with a single move would definitely perish!

Even now, Alexa still did not know whether she had done the Larkinsons and other related people a huge favor.

The alternatives were too frightening to consider.

"Hey." Ves softly said as he raised his arm and pressed it onto her shoulder. "Relax. You are not alone in this. The rest of us have seen enough promise in your proposal to back it above our own plans. Even if you end up getting it wrong, we won’t blame you for it. We all bear responsibility over our own actions."

Alexa remained silent for a few seconds before she responded with a brittle smile. "I... apologize. I should not have shown so much weakness to you. I am not as accustomed to bearing so much responsibility all at once. I will be fine. I only require another minute to regain my composure."

He could tell through multiple ways that his direct disciple still remained shaken in mind and spirit.

She had been relatively fine when she initially presented her idea, but that was when she still considered it a longshot.

The fact that Ves and the others decided to rally around her proposal so quickly and with so little arguing took her by surprise!

Even if she understood the logical sequence that led to this result, her emotions still needed to catch up to the present.

"There is no need to hide your true self before me." He said. "You are family. You are my student. We have an obligation to protect you and help you. It will be a terrible day if other Larkinsons seek to take advantage of your weakness. You can trust me, Alexa. Even if you doubt every other Larkinson, you never have to raise your guard in my presence alone."

Alexa shook her head. "Thank you, Ves, but I do not need your reassurances. I am no immature child who is lacking in comfort. As I have said, I am merely unaccustomed to bearing so much responsibility. That will definitely change over time."

Ves inwardly shrugged. He truly wanted to remind her that she had no need to put on a brave face in front of himself, but he silenced his own words. She would just deny it all over again.

They had much better things to do with their limited time.

"Let’s get back to the matter at hand. Let me transcribe the contents of the Last Defiance Manual into a digital file before transmitting it to you. I will make sure to add my extensive understanding and interpretation as well in order to make it faster and easier to digest the reading material. Much of what I understand and master is relatively neutral and unbiased, so you don’t have to be afraid that I will make too many mistakes."

That had been a boon from the enlightenment fruit. Ves needed all of this additional understanding in order to become proficient in applying the Last Defiance Technique.

Much of these clever tricks and methods hadn’t been formally documented in the Last Defiance Manual.

This was fairly normal. The tome contained the core explanations and methods, but it did not do its utmost to coddle its readers.

If it did, then the text would have become at least 10 times more bloated!

At some point, the creator of powerful and unique techniques no longer wished to spell out each and every step that their successors had to master in order to become their inheritors.

The ability to successfully practice and perform the relevant techniques served as a test on whether the individuals were qualified to make use of this precious heritage.

Those that faltered or even managed to kill themselves due to various shortcomings clearly deserved what they got for overestimating their abilities!

Ves had a very strong feeling that the creator of the Last Defiance Manual ascribed to this style of inheritance transmission.

Therefore, Ves tried his best to write down each and every idea in order to make the resulting document as complete and thorough as possible.

The thick explanations might not necessarily guarantee success, but it should hopefully cut down on the accident rate!

Alexa began to skim through the many pages of convoluted text with great interest.

She slowly began to frown as she began to encounter many obscure theories and references that did not have anything in common with modern science and sensibilities.

"It will not be easy for me to gain a basic but qualified grasp of the theory behind the Last Defiance Technique. I estimate that I will need at least 2 days of focused study before I can gain enough confidence to realize my plan."

"Very well. I will go ahead and build up the initial framework for the poisoned fruit." He said.

The two spoke for a few more minutes before they split up in order to tackle their respective assignments.

Ves still possessed a very fresh and strong perspective on the Last Defiance Manual.

Before the knowledge and insights truly settled into his mind, he intended to take advantage of his current mental state and let his creativity run wild.

Ves sat down besides his personal worktable and drummed his fingers against the surface.

The Last Defiance Technique was never designed with the purpose that Ves and his fellow Larkinsons had in mind.
