The Lord of Another World: All Wasted at the Beginning, and He Made His Fortune by Taking in the Fem

Although Aarons had not yet finalized his plan to lure the Duke's heir, the third prince Loran suddenly gave him an unexpected news.

"Brother-in-law, a group of honorary nobles who participated in the competition came to me a while ago and said that they were planning to go to you for help. I asked them to come and talk to you directly later. Should that be okay?"

"It's not that good... No, let them come."

Aarons was of course well aware that this was most likely the Duke's heir sending people to find out about his strength. But after thinking about it, he decided to let these people come.

Because no matter what these people see, they cannot judge the exact strength of their side.

"Has Teacher Jiangyue not come out yet? I have something to discuss with her now."

After hanging up the call with the third prince, Aarons ran to the laboratory alone.

The others were helping Her Royal Highness the Princess prepare the equipment and props needed for the action, but Aarons knew nothing about fighting, so he could only come to Jiangyue.

However, after asking the receptionist outside, Aarons learned that Jiangyue had not left the house for five days.

"It won't be a problem... Let me go in and take a look."

"Mr. Marquis, the Earl said before that we should not disturb her unless it is a particularly urgent matter... Do you really have to go in?"

"I'm just a little worried—"

However, just as Aarons stood at the door and was about to knock on it to ask about the situation, the door of the laboratory suddenly opened without any warning.

"Success! I'm going to..."

Then, the sage who ran out quickly bumped into Aarons.

"Marquis?! Are you okay?"

"It's okay...but can you get off me first?"

Although Jiang Yue was indeed a sage who was proficient in the ways of magic, her physical strength, which had reached the forbidden level, was far beyond the reach of ordinary people - so she not only knocked Aarons down directly, but also took the opportunity to ride on him.

If the female receptionist had not witnessed the entire unexpected process, she would have misunderstood the ambiguous postures of the two people.

...No, why does that wise man seem to be blushing?

"Sorry... I wanted to come find you right away, but since you're already here, please wait for me to get the things out!"

The sage, with a slightly red face, ran back to the laboratory immediately after leaving Aarons, while Aarons got up from the ground without changing his expression, and then deliberately glanced at the female receptionist next to him.

"…My Lord Marquis, I didn't see anything."

"No, I just want to ask, is she usually like this?"

"The Earl usually... No, you should know that, right?"

Seeing the female receptionist giving him a puzzled look, Aarons felt a little guilty.

Know what? It sounds like Jiang Yue and I have a very close relationship... No, don't tell me, have you already privately acknowledged that our relationship is special?

Aarons felt that he should find an opportunity to clarify the matter, but before he could figure out how to say it, Jiangyue ran out carrying a giant mechanical equipment that was as huge as a coffin.

"Marquis, this thing needs to be tested outside! If you have time, come with me to the square outside!"

"I do have plenty of time... but what is that?"

……

When Aarons and the excited Jiangyue brought the huge machine to the square, he saw a team of guards showing around some unfamiliar faces.

"Those people are... oh, probably those honorary nobles that Roland mentioned."

"Marquis, you should take a look at this first. I made this after carefully studying the adaptability of thermally altered carbon uranium and magic weapons—"

Since he knew nothing about the technology, Aarons originally planned to just give a perfunctory answer and change the subject, but Jiang Yue was quite excited and even pulled his arm to let him take a closer look at the coffin-like machine.

So soft... No, isn't this too much physical contact? Should I...

"Marquis, did you hear what I said?"

"Ah? Sorry, you know I don't really understand these things... Can you explain them in more common terms?"

Because his mind was focused on other things just now, Aarons didn't actually hear anything.

However, the excited Jiang Yue did not notice what Aarons was focusing on, but took the initiative to operate the handles and wheels on the side of the equipment.

When Aarons saw the huge coffin-shaped equipment opening to the left and right, revealing the track-type structure and a row of small carbon-uranium storage tanks hidden inside, the distracting thoughts in his head were instantly cleared.

What is this...it looks so handsome!

"To put it simply, I found a way to combine magic and thermal carbon uranium... I'll just fire one and you'll see, but where should I aim at?—"

"Please shoot it up in the sky! Don't let it affect other places!"

Watching the coffin quickly raise its angle of elevation and turn into a small anti-aircraft gun, Aarons glanced at the visitors not far away in fear... and then he found that they were also secretly observing him.

——That’s good now. The problem that I had planned to discuss with Jiangyue has now been solved.

"That's all right then. After all, we might need to use this thing to attack aerial battleships later, so it's a good opportunity to test its anti-aircraft performance. Marquis! Please stay a little further away!"

When the purple-haired sage half-crouched behind the track-type structure and grasped the joysticks that were obviously different from the previous ones with both hands, a strong electric light suddenly burst out from her palms.

"Use thunder magic to guide and contain the carbon-uranium fluid doped with metal fragments... No problem! Fire!"

As Jiang Yue's excited shouts rang out, a dazzling flash of lightning suddenly shot out from the track-shaped structure and flew straight towards the sky.

In a flash, a beam of bright red fluid with extremely high heat followed the trajectory of the lightning and shot towards somewhere in the sky at a slightly slower speed.

"Is this a heat ray—"

However, before Aarons could express his thoughts, a dark red explosion like a natural disaster occurred at the end of the red beam that had already sunk into the sky.

"That's it! Ahahahahahaha – this is real magic!"

When the sky above his head was completely dyed with another color, the excited sage finally laughed out loud wantonly.

After Aarons used his hands to turn his head towards the honorary nobles who had collapsed on the ground in fear, a strange smile finally appeared on his stiff face.

"——Fortunately, I'm used to it."
