I, Who Kept a Low Profile, Pulled Out the Sword in the Stone - Chapter 31

Chapter 31: Valkyrie

“Unlock.”

As Shireen gave the command, the thick and hard door of the warehouse slowly rose.

Through the gap in the door, Robert saw something shining in the darkness.

The garage door was now completely opened, and a car appeared in front of him. It looked like a sports car.

The design of the car made full use of its aerodynamics. It had four green tires that were probably made out of gemstones. The car looked really grand.

“This is my car, Valkyrie. Sir Robert, are you willing to sit on it and travel around the world with us?”

Shireen said mischievously to Robert as she sat at the driver’s seat.

“It’s my honor,” said Robert as he carried Ellie to the front passenger seat.

Looking at the design of the car, Robert asked curiously, “Is this car custom made?”

Members of the royal family enjoyed many privileges in society. Many of the things in their lives were vastly different from those used by ordinary people. Not only were they practical, but it also showed their noble status.

At first glance, Robert could tell that only the royal family had the right to own such a uniquely designed car.

“Hehe, you’ve guessed it. I ordered it from the Academy of Sciences. I did not intend to buy this car at first. It was because of the design. It was too ugly. They should know that I hate complicated designs the most.”

“When I bought it, they even gave me an extremely thick instruction manual.”

“They also said they could improve the car to an extent where it would move just by me sitting on it. However, the cost would not be the same as before.”

“So, they installed a legendary artificial intelligence system on the car. If I want to, I can free up my hands at any time to enjoy the fun of autonomous driving.”

After saying that, Shireen looked at the steering wheel and said, “Valkyrie, play some music.”

A mechanical female voice could then be heard.

“Yes, master. According to your previous listening records, I’m going to play this song for you now.”

Loud music began playing.

“Valkyrie, upgrade Robert to the same rank as us.”

“Okay master, I will begin to examine Mr. Robert’s physical characteristics.”

A few seconds later, Valkyrie had gathered enough information about Robert.

“Master Robert, welcome to the Valkyrie.”

Shireen held the steering wheel with both hands.

“Robert, do you want to give it a try?”

Robert shook his head. “I don’t have a driver’s license yet. Wait until I have one.”

“Robert, sit tight. We’ll set off now.”

Shireen said excitedly, she was swaying left and right.

Even Ellie looked eager.

‘I could finally watch the Boom Boom Boom show.’

Shireen had just finished speaking and was about to step on the accelerator.

“Master, it’s better for me to take over. You can just enjoy the journey.”

Valkyrie suddenly said nervously.

“Valkyrie, what do you mean by this? Are you questioning your master’s driving skills?”

“No, master. Master’s driving skills are indisputable. But considering the safety of the public, it would be better for me to take over.”

“Valkyrie, one more word, and I will format you.”

Shireen was a little embarrassed at what Valkyrie said in front of Robert, which is why she threatened it.

“Master, please don’t. You told me that we would be good sisters forever.”

Valkyrie’s words got on Shireen’s nerves again and again.

Shireen’s face went red. She was anxious and angry at the same time.

“Shireen, let Valkyrie drive itself. Isn’t it a good chance for us to chat with Ellie?”

Robert quickly said to mediate the critical situation.

Shireen finally gave in after hearing Robert’s words.

“Alright, then I won’t drive.”

At this moment, Shireen did not look like a lady from a rich family. She’s more like a little girl who was angry.

Shireen had already decided in her heart that she would definitely format Valkyrie and changed it into an obedient AI.

Seeing Shireen bicker with the AI was very amusing for Robert.

“I had just completed a safety check and did not find anything dangerous. Master, please give your instructions.”

“Navigate to Max District, Valkyrie. Full speed ahead.”

“Master, according to the information stored in my computer system, Max District is a very dangerous place. It would be better to choose a safer place.”

Shireen did not expect Valkyrie to defy her.

She became speechless.

“Navigate to Max District now and move forward at full speed. I will only say this one last time. If you do not listen, I will format you right away.”

“Okay master, please sit tight. I will head towards Max District at full speed now,” said Valkyrie.

The engine started and they went full speed ahead. Robert felt like he was riding on a roller coaster.

“Robert, how do you feel?”

Shireen looked at Robert.

“I feel very good! It’s as if I’m riding a roller coaster.”

After saying that, Robert immediately became puzzled.

“Shireen, why can we talk normally when we are driving at such a high speed?”

Shireen chuckled and pointed behind Robert. “There’s a special spell applied to the car, so no matter how fast we go, our conversation will not be affected.”

Robert looked in the direction where Shireen was pointing.

Upon closer inspection, he saw that there was a layer of transparent magic cloth covering the body of the car. It was obviously not an ordinary magic item.

“Shireen, this cloth must have cost a lot of money, right?”

“It’s not that expensive. It only cost 30,000 Roman dollars.”

Hearing Shireen casually mention such an astronomical figure, Robert let out a sigh. It was indeed not something an ordinary person could afford.
