Chapter 208: Demon Mechanic (3)

Moby looked back at Ray with a nod before calling Jayden over from beside Alex so he could modify her watch.

And, without even a moment of hesitation, Jayden walked over towards Moby and Ray with a serious expression on her face.

She looked Ray in the eyes, many thoughts running through her mind before she put out her right arm, the arm that had her watch.

"So, can you fix it?" She said in a pressing tone, completely unlike her normal upbeat, cheerful self.

"I can\'t guarantee I get it on my first try since this is my first ever attempt but this should be more than possible… Miss Jayden…" He said with a hint of nervousness in his voice, his eyes closed for a reason that Jayden could not understand.

"Good, take your time, we would rather be slightly late than sorry. Getting killed by the barrier and not saving Abby is definitely not on my to-do list," Jayden responded, making Ray nod before he opened his eyes, leaning closer in to carefully inspect her watch, not even looking her in the eyes a single time.

Ray was still having a hard time believing that the rumours of Moby dating the only daughter of the Griffith Family was not a lie but in fact true. Not only that but the young daughter of the Reids was part of his group as well.

Both were one of the strongest families in the country, and both being families he had dreamt of working for when he grew older. So, due to that fact along with their difference in status and never talking to each other prior, he could not help but become slightly tense by talking to her. It had nothing to do with her beauty since he knew that it would never happen and it would be suicide trying to go for the demon lord\'s girl.

Ray\'s thoughts on Moby had changed for the second time that day.

Not long ago he had only known Moby as a strong-willed, hard-working young man with big aspirations. But now, his perspective of him completely changed yet stayed the same in some aspects. He was still a fair person yet far more ruthless than he expected, the all-powerful demon lord that had his life dancing right on the tips of his fingers. He felt like they might grow distant due to their status, he had no idea if Moby even liked him, if he was acting fake towards him all these months he was hiding his true self.

Yet, he did not want to give up hope and wanted to prove himself not only to Moby but the entire world, so thoughts like those only drove him to work harder and to strive to uncover the truth by his own merits.

"Okay, everything seems to be in place, let me get started then," Ray said, backing off from her arms, once again sitting up straight.

With a deep breath, he once again closed his eyes and put his arms out wide, Jayden and Moby both staring at him with an expectant gaze.

Suddenly, As Ray slowly opened his sights, they both noticed that his previous human-like eyes were no more, now replaced by nothing but an ominous, glowing light blue, binary numbers flowing up and down his eyes almost like it was a computer screen.

His arms that were still out wide in front of him began shifting and turning, the sound of his bones cracking filling the air, his hands beginning to swell. The sound of clanking metal was also heard as his flesh and bones began to shift, rip apart and rearrange themselves in weird ways making both of his arms turn into some sort of robot arms with various different parts, the skin around it now looking more like metal than actual flesh.

Parts of his hand began to move like a machine, sound coming out of them with every subtle movement as they connected with Jayden\'s watch from every angle causing blue sparks to come out that seemed to not hurt Jayden in the slightest, the numbers on his eyes now flowing several times faster than before as he began to heavily breathe, sweat running down his face.

Everyone in the room could not help but stop everything they were doing as they stared at the spectacle in front of them trying to contain their mouths from dropping on the ground as it was unlike anything they had ever seen before, everyone except for Jason who was still training in the corner trying to get a hold of his demon powers.

Avilia had already explained that such a thing would happen yet Moby could not help but be amazed at seeing it occur right in front of him.

Demon mechanics, and other types related to technologies did exist during Avilia\'s time yet were relatively rare. However, nobody ever considered using technology instead of magic. In a magic oriented world like the Netherworld, they were mocked and looked down upon by all for being useless since they believed that technology was just far inferior to magic and had no use since no one used or needed machines in the first place.

Yet, on a planet like earth, a world run by both machines and abilities, his powers proved to be rather useful.

The robotic parts of Ray\'s arm began to move and connect with different areas of Jayden\'s watch, the more he went on the more difficulty he felt as his face began to contract, his teeth clenched with increasing sweat running down his heavily breathing face. So much information was flowing through his mind that his senses were overflowed, giving him both mental and physical pain as he tried his best to modify things to the best of his ability. He felt like he was being ripped apart and broken from the inside out, almost like he was going to explode from being overloaded with too much to handle.

Yet, despite all of that, he did not give in, he pushed through. He wanted to prove himself no matter the cost, he was no longer the unmotivated failure he used to be. He had already suffered gravely until this point so what more could a little extra pain do?

As Moby stared at Ray\'s clear anguish, he felt the urge to stop him. Yet, he stopped himself from doing so since he knew that it was the only way and it had to be done. And, when he sensed his emotions, he felt his clear resolve and determination, making his decision of keeping him going even easier.

And as soon as it started, it all finished, the whole process only lasting a few minutes yet seeming like an eternity in Ray\'s bulging, fatigued mind.

Suddenly, the numbers in his eyes began flickering away which was followed by the light blue colour enveloping it as they faded back into their usual white, surrounding his pupils and dark blue iris that had an almost gray, washed colour on them.

The parts extending out of his robot-like hands all at once disconnected from Jayden\'s watch and fused back where they had come from. His shiny, metallic arms shaking and swelling once again, making various sounds that seemed like a mixture between bones, flesh and metal as they began twisting and shifting back into his normal arms.

Instinctively, he lent his tired, heavy body back, falling backward on his seat. He was no longer able to move even a single muscle. It was far too difficult for him to sit up and keep his back straight, every ounce of energy in his body was sucked out and he was left with absolutely nothing but the satisfaction of his hard work as he stared at the bright ceiling of the room with half-dead eyes, his mind both tired and blank at the same time as he managed to let a few words out of his slightly smiling mouth before he passed out from fatigue...

"I did it guys…"

With a mixture of pride and satisfaction on his face, Moby looked down at Ray\'s weak, fatigued body, picking him up before carefully laying him back on his bed to rest.

Most healing abilities only served to restore a person\'s physical health, not fatigue, especially the mental kind so there was not much that he could be done to help Ray in his state but to get some rest.
