Inside Aragorn's massive newly built mystic workshop.
The sound of whirring machinery reverberated in the background as a dedicated team of mystic mechanics worked under the supervision of their leader.
A wide smile endowed Aragorn's face as he worked on his new obsession. 'Violence is the true way to peace'. He sighed in satisfaction.
After the alliance between the Gandalf Gang and the Berserk Gang, the warriors of the Gandalf Gang that were captured were released.
Releasing them also meant releasing their confiscated mystic treasures.
Aragorn was reluctant to release their mystic treasures but he had no choice. After pleading though, Gandalf agreed to leave 2 omnidirectional mystic treasures with him through which he researched for the past few months.
In his months of researching, Aragorn achieved a lot of breakthroughs and understood a lot about the revolutionary mystic treasure but he had a theory.
To confirm his theory in practical, he needed more omnidirectional mystic treasures. This was another thing that motivated his decision for violence.
Under his impeccable planning, despite the fact that the enemies had more quality and quantity than them, Aragorn's plan neutralized them completely.
With the explosions, smoke bombs and all restricting the enemies, like he guessed, the leaders of the enemies rose above the smoke to fight them.
This was the nexus of the plan. Once the Commander rose up, with his warriors making sure that nobody intervened, he would swiftly incapacitate him.
With the knowledge that they were surely going to use their omnidirectional mystic devices ahead of hand, Aragorn made targeted plans towards them.
Maneuvering smoothly with the omnidirectional devices required a lot of muscle control which took a lot of energy. By targeting the untouchable balls, the enemies were sure to loss all energy and control over their muscles.
Aragorn executed his plan and it worked exactly as he planned, with their balls taken out, the 2 leaders of the enemies were easily knocked out.
With that, their shocked subordinates were spooked into surrendering.
Apart from taking in tens of thousands of mystic warriors as prisoners, Aragorn was also able to confiscate thousands of omnidirectional mystic devices that were given to some of the best mystic warriors of the enemy troop.
Aragorn left handling of the tens of thousands of enemy captives to Jacob and Erling while he focused on working on his obsession.
Under his leadership, branches of the Berserk Workshop were already made in every region under the control of the Berserk Gang.
He easily accessed the regional branch and went to work.
For 8 hours straight, Aragorn locked himself in research.
After sacrificing hundreds of omnidirectional mystic treasures, Aragorn's research finally bore fruition, he unlocked the mysteries of this gadget.
"I see…"
As soon as he said this, his assistants scrambled to get pen and papers to scribble down since they were sure that he was about to unleash wisdom soon.
"I finally get it". Aragorn's eyes shone with joy and relief.
"The invention of this revolutionary mystic device banked on 3 main elements, the user, the mystic engine, and the grapple hooks".
"By using special metals to create the engine, it developed mystic attributes and became capable of taking mystic energy in as fuel".
"The grapple hooks were then added to the equation to make it functional".
"In the hands of a talented enough mystic warrior, it became a lethal weapon since they could use it to move and fight in 3D space".
"Damn, I can finally redeem myself for Rex". Aragorn grabbed his head as he literally started crying tears of joy.
From what he understood about this weapon, it had unlimited potential when in the hands of a mystic warrior that was talented enough to make full use of it. Aragorn believed that Rex was probably the right one for this.
In his opinion, none of the enemies that he just fought met the bar.
For months, Aragorn had agonized about his design for Rex. After making Rex's mystic sword mechanical, he expected it to rapidly increase his brother's strength, serving a great purpose in his journey to the peak.
Despite his expectations and the hard work that he put into designing the sword though, not everything worked according to plan, it never worked.
Rex could not integrate the different transformations of the sword into his battle style and instead preferred sticking to his old sword basics.
Though Rex never complained about it, Aragorn felt guilty. The greatest joy of a mystic mechanic was fulfilling the demands of his customer, if he could not achieve this, then his work was not perfect yet.
Aragorn now had a belief though. 'If Rex can master the maneuvers of the omnidirectional mystic device, I believe he can integrate it into his sword transformations which will make him an even more formidable mystic warrior".
Thinking about the different possibilities already sent him into a state of excitement but he paused since he had something to take care of now.
Aragorn left the busy part of the workshop before going to meet his 2 exotic prisoners. On seeing him, the 2 enemy leaders gritted their teeth.
"Do you know what you've done? You've angered the Hades Gang!"
"Tsk". Aragorn shook his head in disapproval. "And who f*cking cares?"
"How dare you?!"
Smack!
Aragorn wacked the Commander on the cheek, making him pause in shock.
He smiled the next moment. "Congratulations though, you're not dying today".
He turned to face the other warrior. "You, I loved your skills with your Axe and the omnidirectional mystic device, you'll be my test subject".
"You'll test run my creations on my behalf and tell me when I finally create the perfect omnidirectional mystic device".
"F*ck I would…"
"No need to rush to conclusions, if I'm satisfied with your performance, you can become my friend and you'll be duly rewarded".
"If you perform awfully, well, let's say your beloved Hades Gang will become the first target of the Gandalf Gang and Berserk Gang's conquest".
Both warriors were shocked. "You allied with…?"
"Yes, we're now allies". Aragorn smiled. "So make the right decision".
"As for you". Aragorn turned to the Commander of the enemy troop. "I want you to go back and tell your gang leader to remove his greedy eyes from our territory or there will be immediate consequences".
"Safe journey". Aragorn escorted the enemy Commander out.
Still in disbelief and shock, this warrior started making his way home.
Aragorn returned back to meet the enemy 2nd in Command. "Axe Guy, it's me and you now homie, you'll help me right?"
"…"
