Volume 9 - Chapter 42 – Overwhelming (1/2)
09-42 Overwhelming
“Reiko, could you go?”
To make the battle situation even more advantageous, disrupting the enemy now was necessary.
And the most qualified person for that was of course Reiko.
“But don’t intervene directly yet. Only use the Magi Cannon to shoot from afar.”
As there still were things to think about, Jin reminded Reiko. She obediently nodded.
“Yes, please leave it to me.”
Jin then lowered the altitude Pegasus-1 was flying at. And when the ground was ten meters away.
“This will do. Ann, please take care of Father.”
Reiko said, took Peach Blossom and the Magi Cannon, then jumped down from Pegasus-1.
While pinching down the hem of her skirt, Reiko dropped on the ground and stood. The location was about 500 meters away from the battlefield.
“Alright Reiko, fire with the Magi Cannon at 30 percent.”
“Yes Father.”
Orders came down from Jin who was in Pelican-1 which had once again risen up higher.
“I ordered the Land corps to move just now. Our allies will be going from the left side to the right side. Got it?”
With her marvellous eyesight, Reiko watched the timing of when the allied Land corps had gone from the left side.
She then prepared to fire the Magi Cannon in her hands.
“Magi Cannon, output 30 percent. Firing!”
Along with the boom of the shock wave, the Adamantite round was fired at a speed of around Mach 20.

“What are you doing! Aargh, so irritating!”
Elena who was watching the Magi Screen ground her teeth.
At that moment, a number of the new type combat golems were blown away.
“Eh?”
After a few seconds, another bunch was. Then another.
“What? What’s going on?”
Even Elena couldn’t confirm by sight the shots fired at over Mach 20 and couldn’t understand what was going on.
And meanwhile, more of the golems on her side were blown away.
After seeing the friendly golems be blown away a total of ten times Elena lost her judgment.
“Golems! Spread out! If you group up the damage will increase! Spread out I said!”
But that was what Jin had been aiming for.

“Oh, the enemy golems have become scattered. I wonder if they’re scared of Reiko’s shelling?”
Jin who was viewing the scene from the sky muttered.
“Master, now attacks using the Raptors would be effective too.”
Ann presented some advice.
“Yeah, that’s right. Instead of a wide area attack, let’s have them snipe each of the individual golems.”
Jin then gave orders to the Raptor team.
“Each one of the Raptor team, fire burst shots with lasers at the enemy golems on the surface. No matter what do not hit allies.”

“W–what is it this time!?”
Elena let out a shriek.
On the scene displayed by the Magi Screen, one new type combat golem fell after another.
She couldn’t tell what was going on. Just that suddenly their heads and arms, or half of their bodies disappeared and they collapsed.
“What in the– what in the world is going oooon!”
Elena was almost screaming, then the top seat of the Unifiers Joule tried to calm her down by patting her shoulder.
But that only irritated Elena.
“Annoying!”
Elena swung her hand. It collided with Joule’s chest. Along with the sound of bones breaking, Joule coughed up blood and collapsed.
“E–Ele… na?”
