The Mech Lord

Chapter 63 - 62: Joining The Club

"..maybe...before the Mechs were invented…"

Leo looked at Yuji, and his face clearly showed the disbelief on it.

"At least we have it, all for 24/7, free of cost." Yuji waved his hands, and he was indeed correct here. If it was the Mech Club, you would be lucky to get an hour a day with so many members in it.

But, this place sure was different.

[Let's go, this place is useless-nya.] Aiden calmly said, but Leo didn't move.

He stood there contemplating it.

'Arthur, can we handle the 3D modeling using the [Virtual Projection]?' He asked inwardly.

[Everything can be achieved using [Virtual Projection] as long as I have required data.]

'Great!' Leo smiled inwardly in excitement.

To be honest, he would just need to use the place for building real things as well as getting the hang of real things. And, this place had all the physical tools to do the job. Though they were outdated, and would make one break a ton of sweat.

But, the opportunity to have a 24/7 usage was definitely mouthwatering to Leo. As for breaking sweat, Leo was used to it. He was already engaged in some hardworking job back on earth after all.

[Don't do it! My image would hit rock-bottom if you join this bunch of weirdoes-nya!] Aiden protested even though he had initially allowed it. After all, this was just too much.

'I don't have a choice! Besides, do you want us to get back our real bodies or not?' Leo retorted. In the end, Aiden could only swallow the bitter pill as he agreed to the matter.

"So, what are your thoughts about joining?" Yuji asked with a smile, and there was obviously a bit of expectation in his eyes. "You can take more time if you need.."

"No, it's fine. I have made my decision," Leo shook his head.

Both Runeko and Yuji turned a bit tense. The moment of truth was here, and they were really hoping it would be in their favor.

"I am joining..." Leo said with a smile looking at the two's faces which were full of expectation.

"Hell yeah!!!!!"

Before the three could speak another word, shouts erupted and the people from before all rushed into the room.

Biggie picked Leo up, and the next thing he knew being tossed into the air just for joining a club.

It sure wasn't the kind of welcome he was expecting.

"I can finally become the Best Martial Artist!!" The little Hedgehog screamed in joy.

"I can finally showcase the path of Ninja at a bigger stage." The Shinobi guy was no less excited. But, it couldn't be seen on his face at all. He still had the same calm expression from before.

The celebration continued for a few minutes, before Yuji finally got Leo down.

And, then the introduction session began.

The first was the lady with the mask and goggles on. She slowly took it off, and revealed a beautiful face. Her hair was light blue in color, and went down to her nape. She was wearing the MTP course dress below her protective coat. And, from the badge on her chest, Leo could tell that she was in the last year. A year above Leo.

"I am Nora Water, and as you can see. I am a Slime, who loves toxins," The girl said with a smile, as she raised her hand and dissolved it into a sticky liquid like substance. "But, you can just call me Nuru like everyone else does."

The next was the Shinobi guy.

"I don't have a name, just call me Blank."

"Stop that bullsh*t!" The little Hedgehog who was standing on the guy's shoulder slapped the back of his head with a frown, and then spoke in his stead, "He is Harry Ruse, a Glorian who is just obsessed with Shinobis. He is in the Second Year of MTP."

The Hedgehog then went on to introduce himself, "I am Little Pine, an Animal spirit."

"Pff!"

A few people couldn't help themselves when the name came out. Animal Spirit where like that, they could be said to be the newest addition to the Interstellar era. These bunch were actually nothing but the previous Fauna of a Planet who hasn't evolved into Arora Beast, and had evolved into an intelligent creature with the same body.

And, one thing about Animal Spirit stood aside. Their naming sense was quite unique.

To other races, it seemed that these guys just didn't put any effort in naming their offspring.

"Who in hell dared to laugh?! Come in front!" The little guy immediately glared all around, but couldn't find the person.

"Hmp!" He snorted before turning towards Leo again, "You can just call me, Spike."

Leo started to feel a bit weird. Why in hell did all of them have nicknames?

"I am Paul Bourne, a second year MTP student from Andromeda-yaawwwnn…." The Sleepy guy said with a big yawn, and that was it. His head slowly fell below, and one could see a snot bubble emerging from his nose.

"This Sleepy Head.." People shook their head, and the next person stepped up.

"I am Nylo Bigson, a Titan, you can call me Biggie. And, I am in Second Year of MTP as well," The Big guy said with a smile.

Leo was surprised when he heard that. He didn't expect him to be a titan. After all, even though he was huge. His figure was not so big for a titan. He would be considered to be the size of 6 or 7 years old among Titans. Though he doubted that even Titan's had such buffed up children.

'A lot of students are from MTP here..' Leo muttered inwardly after realizing it.

[Most of them are foreigners. They obviously won't come to Gloria just to study something which this Academy doesn't specialize in-nya.] Aiden said the obvious, and Leo understood it too.

"You have already met her, she is the Secretary of our Club, Runeko Cathylian, a Demi-Human. She is in the first year of the MTP course." Yuji smiled, pointing his hand towards Runeko and she just did a little nod.

"And, I am the President, Yuji Miwa aka Doc!" Yuji said with a smile pointing his thumb towards his chest. "I am in the Second Year of the Mech Knight Program, the senior most person in the club."

Leo nodded, and then introduced himself with a smile, "I am Aiden Silver, nice to meet you all."

This time, he didn't forget his 'real' name with Aiden reminding him.

As soon as his name came out, quite a few people's eyes turned wide.

They had obviously recognized the name. Not to mention, the name was very familiar and was heard at regular intervals all around the Academy.

"Didn't you say, your name was Leo?" Yuji asked with a frown.

"Umn..." Leo began to sweat, this had come way sooner than he had expected.
