It might have only been two months since he'd cracked the recipe and found all the materials he'd needed, but she was aging faster than expected.
His best guess was it either had to do with her race, or the fact she'd been stuck looking like a young teenager for millenia so it was working faster to fix that. It wasn't a huge difference but she had grown three centimeters in height, but it was the small increase to her bust that had earned him a kiss on the cheek. She'd never said anything, but she'd always had a bit of a complex about her small chest when compared to her many varied and bustier sisters.
After sharing a good morning, he left his bedroom and grabbed a couple of breakfast bars on the way to his workshop. Sitting in a large open area was his current personal project while a few partially completed requests littered tables. His personal project was a two-seater ATV. He had no idea what kinds of terrain he could expect while hunting for items with Mittelt, but he wanted a good mix of comfort and the ability to traverse any terrain. While he could modify and enchant any vehicle to tackle any terrain, size was also a factor. If the vehicle was too big then traversing a dense jungle would be a complete pain in the ass.
The ATV just needed a few more modifications to be finished and it would be ready to take them anywhere they wanted. He'd forgone a regular gasoline engine and powered the entire thing with a magical engine. Doing so let him make it so the vehicle could drive like normal, fly, and even act as a submersible.
It could drive on any terrain including up vertical surfaces, upside down, and on top of water. He estimated the flight speed to be a little over Mach One, not the fastest thing in the sky but still impressive. It was much slower in the water but estimates put the depth it could dive at a two-hundred meters, which was pretty nice.
On top of being able to go just about anywhere, except space, it also had a huge amount of storage space. The 'trunk' of the vehicle was more like a trapdoor leading to a set of stairs and a massive open area. Space expansion wasn't all that hard when you knew what you were doing.
The entrance could even be expanded outward to allow larger objects inside, objects such as a massive dragon skull. Inside of the space was a small area dedicated to living space. While exploring they could park somewhere, enter the trunk and sleep in a comfortable bed. All the comforts of home on the go. It was high class van living, a somewhat popular trend in his last life, at its finest.
He'd also included a small workshop in the area so he could do some work while Mittelt drove or while they weren't doing anything else. As much as he would like to just take a break and do whatever he wanted, he had commitments and he wasn't going to neglect them. It was the same reason he didn't run away the instant he met Azazel way back when. He'd made a commitment to deliver that sword and he kept it, dammit!
For now, he just needed to finalize the enchantments, do some packing, and they would be ready to go!
Mittelt left Junichiro's bed with a smile on her face. She was excited to have a boyfriend once more. It'd been a long time since she'd last been able to date someone who wasn't a complete creep. Her physique only really attracted two kinds of males to her. The first were just boys around her apparent age and that was alright, but they were very rarely even remotely interesting. Boys that young just didn't have anything to really offer to someone like her. The second... belonged in jail, 'nuff said.
Junichiro, on the other hand, was young but very interesting. Still, she didn't want to be the creep in their relationship so she'd been forced to set some rules. First and foremost, no sex until he was at least seventeen. No matter how cute she thought him begging might be she'd never change her mind on that. She'd also refused to allow kissing until he was fifteen, which was pretty soon. That was mostly because she knew that kissing would eventually lead to touching which would lead to heavy petting. That would be as far as she would let it go until he was sixteen, then they could explore a little more.
On the bright side, having those limits meant they had time to find out just how well their relationship would go without involving sex or sexual acts in it. It also, much more importantly, would allow her body to mature more alongside his. If things kept going like they had, she wanted him to have all the joys of exploring her new body as it aged to a more mature one. Knowing she would be able to 'grow up' while their relationship grew was something truly special to her and something she wouldn't let get damaged in any way.
Mittelt had a breathtaking smile of pure joy as she made her breakfast that morning.
Junichiro looked up from the sphere he was carving runes into as the door to his workshop opened and Azazel walked inside. Rolling his eyes at the leader of the fallen, he set down the sphere in a box containing six others that looked just like it, "First I don't see you in a year and now it feels like you're coming over almost weekly. What's up this time?"
Azazel dramatically held a hand over his chest, "I'm hurt! Here I am taking time out of my busy schedule just to come down here and talk to my favorite business partner..."
"Oh knock it off. I'm sure you're just skipping out on paperwork. Mittelt's told me all about Shemhazai's rants about you."
Azazel dropped the 'hurt' act with a chuckle, "Well... Anyway. I'm actually here for a reason. It's been confirmed that the heiresses to the Gremory and Sitri families will be moving to the human world next week. They've already bought living areas for their peerages and themselves. I expect they want some time to get used to the area before starting the new school year as transfer students."
He gave Junichiro a rather serious look, "Are you sure you want to stay here? After your last incident with a stray... Well, no one would blame you if you just wanted to avoid them all together."
Juncihiro grimaced and looked at his right arm at the mention of that siren bitch. He still held a lot of anger towards her for that, but he didn't blame the devils as a whole. He knew holding an entire race responsible for the actions of a single member was just plain stupid.
It'd be like hating all of humanity because Hitler had existed. Aside from that, he felt his anger was actually well placed since he was pissed at himself for being so weak and unprepared, and Azazel for the oversight that lead to the incident. He still planned to get a bit of revenge on Azazel but that still had to wait until he was strong enough.
