[Saint Doll] Arc 4 Chapter 34 – Mad Scientist
Fate is cruel yet also gentle.
He suffered from a terrible despair, and struggled as hard as he can.
He obtained the power needed to make a breakthrough, and then he encounters hope.
That light of hope lies beyond an even greater despair, yet he still yearns and jumps into it.
“Excuse me”
There’s a building in the innermost area called the Research Building. This place is located at the furthermost location away from the Miko Department’s building, and also the laboratory of Mado, Shin’s current destination. The building is unbelievably huge for something that is dedicated to a single individual, yet there’s no sign of another person at all inside it. The man in charge of this place is called as the academy’s, no, the world’s greatest mind, and also the world’s number one Mad Scientist.
“What? ……New student huh. You shouldn’t come to this place, there’s nothing of interest to you in here”
After glancing at Shin who had come into the room, Mado returned his gaze toward his desk as if he had lost all interest. His mind is full with the thought of making a new gear for Artificial God within the allocated budget, he has no extra attention to spare at all.
“Sensei?”
“What, you still there?”
“Sensei, is inflicting a wound to a Super Class monster your objective?”
Shin interrogated him.
He needs to know whether the goal of this man is merely something to that degree or not.
“You—, You know that even a Super Class have a barrier right. There are only a handful of people among adventurers that can break through it, surely you understand the value of a weapon that can make anyone able to wound a Super Class?”
And Mado answered the new student’s inquiry.
After all ignorance is a sin.
“Then, what will you do if a Disaster Class comes? Will you stick with your useless research and escape to another city?”
“What are you trying to say?”
When Shin returned his words rudely, it didn’t make Mado mad. On the contrary, it piqued his interest.
“What I want is weapon that can [Kill] Disaster Class”
“A Disaster Class, of all things? Without the Seikishin, you’re going to need to sacrifice a great amount of Artificial God just to subjugate it, and out of all things, you say that YOU want to KILL it?”
“Yes, that’s what I said”
Mado’s smile is getting bigger as he turned his body toward Shin’s direction. Even someone like him who is called as a Mad Scientist by everyone thought that those words are just like delusion.
“Alright then, what can you do? What do you have? Or are you just a fool who is humming his daydream?”
“Please don’t mention this to anyone”
Shin walked and moved toward the large magic tool from before.
“A magic tool that can hurt Super Class, it would be amazing if it’s usable isn’t it. The name is Pilebunker right?”
“Yeah. Ah, I see. You’re a Fallen, no, a Hero? It’s just as you said, that’s a weapon I made based on what I heard from a Fallen in the past”
“However it’s defective because you need a magic stone for each shot right?”
“Correct. The cost-effectiveness can never overcome Artificial Gods. It won’t be a joke to say that it requires the same amount of men’s semen needed to move an Artificial God for a full day. I showed the core to the people in the energy department, but it’s beyond their understanding, and I also don’t want to use a core that will only react to a Miko even if the output could be larger.
Shin brushed his fingers against the body of the magic tool and touched the protruding big magic stone with his other hand.
“Is this the core of a Super Class?”
“I’m sure you know, but that stuff is valuable”
“Well then, here’s another core of a Super Class”
Seeing another magic stone with the exact same shape on Shin’s hand, Mado’s jaw fell.
The magic stone then disappeared immediately from Shin’s hand, and in its place, a huge magic tool is hanging down heavily from his hand.
“And here’s the Pilebunker”
“It- It can’t be, you”
“Yes, this is my blessing”
Hearing Shin’s words, Mado stood up while his eyes is shining brightly.
“What’s the limitation?”
“Only stuff that I can hold, it will disappear after 10 seconds if I let it go from my hand. However no matter how many of it I break, I can take out a new one immediately, even if the original doesn’t exist anymore”
“Wonderful!!!!!!!!!!”
Mado is screaming from his lung with bloodshot eyes after Shin finished his explanation.
“Let me confirm this, if the size is something that you can hold in your arm, then even if it breaks after one use, you’ll be able to use the valuable magic stone for how many times you want!? It’s possible, with those as the conditions, it will be possible!! Let’s do it!!”
“Yes, if you can give me the power to defeat a Disaster Class, then I’ll cooperate with anything”
“Wrong, I’m the one who will cooperate. ……I’ll give you everything I had, and make you the first Hero to defeat a Disaster Class in the world!!”
“But what’s the merit for you Sensei?”
“Who needs that!! If the magic tool I made can defeat a Disaster Class, then that will be the greatest reward ever!!”
While saying that, Mado is grasping Shin’s hand within his palm. His eyes are so red that it made you wonder whether some of the capillaries inside were broken or not.
“Then first off, I’ll start with developing a weapon for Artificial God. If I did that, I’ll be able to borrow a Special Class magic stone under the pretext of testing and let you copy it. It’s connected to an Artificial God during their actual operation, but they won’t be able to complain because we’re going to return it appropriately. Fufufufufu, Its boiling, my blood is boiling. The budget will be severe, but that doesn’t matter at all!!”
“If you need budget, I have around 1000 white gold coins with me, you can use as many as you need”
“Fufufufufu, Then let me ask you to buy stuff that can’t be reimbursed to the Academy. It’s will be necessary since the stuff purchased from the black market doesn’t have any receipt with them”
And thus, the Hero and the Mad Scientist joined hands.
For the sake of destroying the foundation of this distorted world which is dependent on the Seikishin and the Artificial God.

“By the way, what if the Disaster Class really come out again?”
“No problem. The whereabouts of Disaster Class and Special Class which weren’t completely defeated and put into dormant state are always checked. Those bastards had been staying still for decades, you can say that the current situation is convenient for us”
