Rei shrugged his body and said that magic never existed in his world before. The only magical stuff he knows were the superior technology that was barred from him to interact.

"That is all I know. My body is still the same, but I am not in the spacesuit, nor the people around me knew what I was talking about. They nearly wanted to throw me in an asylum for saying rubbish out."

"Only then, a male nurse came to talk to me and asked if I was having some weird condition called the 8th grade syndrome. I refused and told him I was sane until he came close to me, and told me that it's fine to act that way."

"As long as I do not show it during the real test he will teach me the ropes on how to 'blend' into the 'real' world and ironically because of him, I managed to pass the psychiatric exams." Rei later said that the male nurse revealed his true identity as the 'Dark Dragon Slayer'.

"I guess that was how I learn about this world's manga and the animation scene. Dark Dragon Slayer was also my sensei when it comes to drawing, and those were the days how I became a mangaka artist." Jin was totally speechless upon hearing the story and sometimes guessed the world worked in different ways to help somebody out.

"In any case... that spaceport I died should now be in the United Federation's territory," Rei stated, and Que Er nearly wanted to send her birds there immediately until Rei stopped her verbally.

"The spaceport should be in ruins from the previous skirmish. Knowing the United Federation, it would leave it a dead space of floating debris to remind the Xeon Union not to mess with the United Federation." The engineer reasoned.

"Oh, come on. Here I was hoping your information will help us out." Jin leaned back on his chair and sighed.

"Look at the bright side, at least we have a space coordinate. Maybe build a spaceship ourselves?" Que Er inquired, and somehow both Rei and Jin laughed at the same time.

"Impossible. Impossible! There is no way we have the technology to do it! And do not look at me! I never browse at any spaceship blueprints before!" Rei said, but Jin laughed for a different reason.

"We are at a ruined spaceport, surely there must be parts floating around, and most importantly, you are an engineer. Fix it." Oddly enough, Jin always wanted to say that to a fellow engineer, especially since his university friends used to berate him in those multi-disciplinary projects.

"You can't just fix broken space ship parts to one space ship! That is not how Astrospace engineering works! And I am a Mecha Engineer! Totally different field of speciality!" Rei exclaimed at the absurdity of the request. Maybe, his master was not as rational as his monsters advertised him to be.

"That is assuming you are dealing with only science, but we have magic," Jin smirked as he snapped his fingers and fire appeared. "And do not worry, if you remembered Ayse, she had some experience in time-space engineering as well as being skilled in other areas. I am sure we can work something out. For now, I will loan you three Sandroku Golems, modify it to make it work in space. After which, haul any parts back to the System, and we will figure out something." Jin ordered Rei.


"Even if I want to, I still have my deadlines to handle. If I can't complete it by the end of this month, the movie studio I am working with, will go broke and might declare for bankruptcy. We are pinning our hopes, our everything by the end of this year!"

"System wished to remind that there are debts Mecha Engineer Rei incurred from Yun too after you have used it to pay the Yakuza." The System responded in retaliation of Rei's defiance to work.

"I... I..." Rei understood the chains that had bound him, and at the same time, he yearned to cut them off because of his passion.

"System, find out the operational cost of the studio. We might potentially be Rei's sponsor for that movie he was making. Heck, we might even be able to help him create scenes that he can never imagine." Jin ordered the System as he himself was searching on the internet for his trailer.

"User, are you proposing to use the Supa Robot Warz mini game instance for the movie?" The System asked which caused Rei's eyes to suddenly light up.

"If you can really let me use the Supa Robot Warz instance, that will be great! In my opinion, I have reservations for the studio that I hired to create the 3D models for the mecha models. It is unsatisfactory work and did not live up to the hype for the movie." Rei spoke out his fears and in turn, his hidden desires.

"So you want to remake your movie? I thought you say your movie is near completion?" It felt like Jin managed to bait him.

"Yes...but I do not want my fans to recognise how terrible the overall animation could potentially be. The overall scenes are great, but it is a Mecha movie! The 3D animation must be on point! Currently, it did not have the poof I wanted. If we used the Supa Robot Warz, it will be so realistic that the fans would love it! Something like a mix of Live action robot fights and 2D animation together!"

"Surely, other animation studios could have done better, right?" Jin managed to search the studio that was doing Rei's work. He might not know much about the animation scene in Japan, but he knew enough about the reputation of the studio Rei employed. (Because he was a fan of Japanese animation himself in the past.)

As what Rei had said, Studio Mashi's 3D animation work had never been their top product although their past 2D animation works were considered to be notable in the past. Not too famous, but its name was still regarded as a contender within the industry.

Yet, it was also because of their insistence of staying their style of animating while other studios moved to 3D computer animation made them not as popular as before. (Which was also why Rei could make employ them to adapt his works.)

"So is it a deal? While it might be a hassle for their HR to push the dates further, it's still doable since we did not announce the dates yet." Rei told Jin that the movie was still kept under secrecy and not much advertisement was made except for a few teasers. (Mainly due to budget issues rather than wanting it to be a surprise for the 10 year anniversary of his manga.)

"Deal. Handle what you need to do by the end of tomorrow and give me the estimate of the studio's expenses for the next few months. After which, start working to make the three Sandroku Golems viable for space." Jin shook Rei's hand hard to confirm the deal even though he could have ordered him otherwise.

Perhaps, just perhaps Jin secretly wanted to see his dungeon instance in the movies too.
