Vol 4 Chapter 3 (2/2)
Three units down once I sorties Is it the “Delta Plus” abilities or the strong power of the Goddess of Luck that I’ abilities This joke-like development caused Riddhe to remain for a , and Riddhe iht down fro hot particles were sprayed on the “Delta Plus”
There was a second, third shot that ca over, and obviously, they did not froy output beams that was on a beam launcher’s level Riddhe indicated that he wanted the Roht back while esti the eneht sight of an enee showed a purple machine on aThis mobile suit had its data entered since the last battle with the “Sleeves”, and it was a special specs elo’s “Geara Zulu”…!” Mineva ed
“Someone you know?”
“He’s the leader of the escort squad, a very dangerous man Be careful”
The beams continued to rain down on Riddhe as it anticipated his dodging, see up Mineva’s words Riddhe did not even have the time to transform as it took hiht blocking his way let out afteri in slowly on the “Delta Plus” as he remained restrained The malice that was stickier than hostility descended on Riddhe, causing hioosebumps
Part 6
It was an ene for its next prey and felt like it was time to hold back The machine itself could not be found in the database, and the unique appearance caused Angelo’s blood to boil
“That Gundam-like machine…!”
Angelo let his machine move down behind the beams, and closed in on the relative distance to the eneht of this enemy unit the moment they clashed, and it looked like a “Gundarey color, but it was definitely a variation of a Gunda that White Devil legend that has a tail and elo was itated nerves as he continued to squeeze the trigger of the beam rifle The enemy unit intended to keep its distance, but was unable to reht axis in the middle of this pitch darkness
“I won’t let you get away even if you want to transforht like one—”
The 4-barreled grenade launcher equipped inside the shi+eld was fired, blowing up the path the eneelo used the moment the enemy unit hesitated due to the fireballs and slowed down to pull the beam hook out and shoot its booster pods
“Die after you fight once!”
The particle blade in the shape of a sickle went right at the enemy unit’s abdomen It’ll hit The numb face showed a sht in front of hihts The rain of bullets hailed down, and the ht in the shockwave as it was blown behind
“What the…!?”
Angelo immediately let the machine steady itself, and looked over at the all-viewdown He sahitein on hied version of it appeared on theThe CG corrected ie of the lone horned hts It ielding the Bea for a moment to fire a second time
“…I see So you want to h for me like this?”
It was the boy who saw Frontal’s true appearance and forced hi The RX-0 et all other things
“How bold you are…!”
The tail stabilizers on the back rose up like a tail, and the “Geara Zulu”s beaht at the “Unicorn”
Part 7
The animosity and her’s heart like it had a physical hardness The intention auto the “Unicorn” to ignore the a-particle shots caed at the last moment was reflected on the white armor
“That purple guy’s scary…!”
The delay ti intent before the shot was almost zero If he made a mistake here, even the “Unicorn”s interface would not be able to negate the daht back with the Beaun as he focused on the purplethe purple ht beside him
“Is that a new Federation model?”
It was an unregistered machine, but it could be identified as a Federation mobile suit from the clean streamlined contours The pilot had the beam rifle at a position where he could fire readily, but he hesitated as he let the ht that thefor the “Unicorn” to take action A pulse suddenly started to rise deep within Banagher’s heart, and as his consciousness was attracted by that thing for severalat!?) the voice ca his eardrums
The purple ot to his feet struck up fro intent by half and round, and despite deploying the I-field barrier on the shi+eld, Banagher’s consciousness was too slow, causing the ht ca out from the purple mobile suit, and the shi+eld that could not block from the front directly was blown aside The base of the shi+eld cracked due to the impact, and the purple mobile suit used the opportunity presented when the “Unicorn” lost its protection as it closed the distance completely
A beahts There was no tiher’s brainwaves made this snap decision as he let the “Unicorn” draw out its beam saber
“Tch…!”
It was a click of a tongue, but also one that could motivate hi the grip and swing right down at the ene over, but the particles that were gathered in the forher could see the “Unicorn”s saber being absorbed into the purple machine
The beam launcher was raised to the front in place of a shi+eld, eating up the extreo of the long and thick cannon in its hands that was sliced and ered explosion was still too close The purple e belt-like connector away from the backpack, and the beam launcher was sliced in half and floated in space for just a e fireball, and the purple machine took the heat and shockwave as the boost pods' jets were blown aside weakly
Got hiher let the machine steady itself, and looked around for the purple e He had already activated the transave him, but there was no definite proof that the other side could receive the signal in space coaht back the purple unit Banagher had the feeling that the purpleas he did not shake off that person He recalled the killing intent that was formed, the presence that was overly sticky, and recalled the voice of the pilot that re out of a sudden, shocking him
The IFF responseopened, indicating the coordinates of a Federation unit Banagher understood that it was the new Federation unit froher! You’re Banagher Links, right!?), causing his o blank
“Audrey…?”
Banagher let out a hoarse voice as he looked behind at the newin The Gunda clearer in front of his eyes, and he felt his chest fluttering even strong as he subconsciously let the “Unicorn” machine turn around The new e shi+eld on it and grabbed the “Unicorn” on its left arm
(Are you alright? Banagher? It’s me, Mineva…Audrey Burne)
Banagher had no reason to h the speakers “Audrey…is it you, Audrey?” He leaned forward froreat that you’re fine…!) this voice came from the mobile suit without horns, but had the face of a “Gundaiant
“Why’re you at such a place…are you piloting it?”
(No I’n Riddhe Marcenas You reht before?)
The her recalled the planeofficer pursuing it, but it could not help hiher alone as he was unable to understand the situaton and could only look back blankly; it faced the “Unicorn” and opened the cockpit cover
The hatch deep within then opened, and the norhts of the cockpit snuck out It was impossible to tell the physique from the heavy-type normal suit, and it was impossible to see who it was as the face was covered by the heled to feel it from the presence within She actually showed herself on the battlefield in space “That’s too reckless, Audrey!” Banagher chided as he expanded theand moved the cursor over to the helmet of the normal suit
He could see the bright energetic eyes sparkling under the visor Those were the emerald eyes that indicated the start of everyone Audrey’s eyes caused the nerves on his body to resonate and the passion to engulf his heart and body—
(There’s no tiher, so listen up After this, I’ll ride on this “Delta Plus” to Earth with Ensign Riddhe)
Those eyes of hers were staring at Banagher firmly as she let out an adaher responded as he did not wait for his mind to clear, and Audrey’s voice continued, (This is what I decided after thinking)
(The Ensign’s father is a senator of the Senate Council, and a Central figure of the space Migration Act I intend toabout this I want to settle this peacefully as a person who inherited the Zabi heritage—)
At that rab Audrey froher too pulled the control stick without waiting for the cockpit to close, and let the “Unicorn” move away from the new mobile suit called the “Delta Plus” An object flew in at a high speed right at the last ht was than emitted less than a meter away
It’s that purple guy Banagher turned his back on Riddhe, who see, and the “Delta Plus” he was piloting He caught sight of the ene fire on it The purple unit skillfully dodged the continuous fire of the Bea, drew out a rocket from its shi+eld and loaded it into the launcher The launcher that was at the waist let out a small spark, and the rocket was fired out as it closed in on the “Unicorn”, triggering a flash of explosion that ignited froe
The “Delta Plus” fought back with the beam rifle alide in space, dodging the fire as it continued to load the rockets The “Unicorn” adjusted itself and raised the Beaun (I know you’ll be confused because it’s too sudden) Banagher heard Riddhe’s explanation through the communication channel
(But I’ll bear the responsibility of protecting Mineva…Audrey It’s not easy to do this, but we’ve already tried our best to think of a good way to settle this Please understand)
(You should return back to the “Nahel Arga as you return with the “Unicorn”, the Federation Army will retreat First…)
The fireball of explosion exploded beside, and the noise that got heavier covered Audrey’s voice The i the armor let out clear her felt puzzled as he did not understand as going on, and even though he had the feeling that he was being betrayed, he continued to search for Audrey’s voice a her in his sights
He was right beside her, but he could not touch her They could only give fleeting looks to each other, and he had no way of asking what her true intentions were Why didn’t I get out of the cockpit andhis body that was being manipulated by the G-force
Part 8
The purple “Geara Zulu” lost the weight of the beam launcher, and it was a lot more -ranged support e boost pods on the back, and it continued to follow no her and co tried to shake it off They shot through a dummy balloon that expanded to the size of a mobile suit, but this was unable to fool the eyes of the pilot The “Geara Zulu” with the commander blade antenna continued to cut down the due anti-mobile suit rocket, the Stru the duht within the explosions to dissipate immediately
Despite losing the stability of its posture during this challenge, the “Unicorn” continued to raise its Bea its best to restrain the enemy’s action The way it fired the shots had the flair of a novice, but there was no sense of fear in his action He however felt that the machine wanted to h he was scared, he hung on With their glances at the unit with the monoeye, Riddhe calher’s back
He realized that with Mineva on board, the “Delta Plus” could not fight as it wished He should have told Mineva as on his rasp everything through li at least—this unknown eer of the beaed the fire and shot out a new Strum Faust
The “Unicorn” and the “Delta Plus” were forced back by the impact of the explosion, and the interface opened autoher’s voice rang within Riddhe’s ears
(Is what you’re going to do what you have to do? Or is it so you wanted to to?)
The unexpectedly calm voice caused Mineva, who’s seated on the assistance seat, to shudder After an instance of silence, she answered, “It’s soher’s reply then caet it)
The “Geara Zulu” waved its beaot behind the two machines from their feet The “Unicorn” skillfully used the AMBAC’s functions to change its position as it contacted the “Delta Plus” behind with a forn Riddhe!)
(I feel you’re a man of your word I’ll leave Audrey to you)
Riddhe had no time to answer The “Unicorn” immediately broke contact with the “Delta Plus” and let out maximum output from the back boosters as it fleards the ene let out a sharp trail of bea back the purple “Geara Zulu” Flashes of explosions occurred, and Riddhe stared at the sparks of the bea with each other At that moment, they felt so distant from him; the battlefield in front of hi words were the only things echoing in his head
The outdated words kept restraining his thoughts unconditionally You’re just a kid What big words are you spouting there? Why are you so open-minded? I never showed any sense of trustworthiness here—
“Suchhere”
There was a sense of heat that he never felt before, rising within his chest and expanding within Riddhe ignored Mineva, who frowned in doubt, and turned the “Delta Plus” away
Riddhe continued on to transform the mobile suit into the wave rider, and at that moment, he only considered about how to leave the battlefield “Ensign, Banagher’s still…!” Mineva protested, but Riddhe had no intention of caring about it
Noshe definitely would not understand That was because Banagher set a curse on him in a way only a man could do “I understand” He mused and looked forward
“This is a matter between men Please don’t interrupt”
To her, this ht be the first ti tone Mineva closed her half-opened er move forward or retreat, and experienced that he bore the fate of the person naher as he turned the unit to “Palau” that had dust surrounding it The anti-air fire was obviously decreasing, and the bright lights of the battle on the back observationshone intensely into his eyes as a result
Part 9
The Federation unit that transforhter jets flared its thrusters on the back as it hurriedly elo wanted to pursue it immediately, but was blocked by the bullet screen that was in the shape of a fan, and shuddered before he felt angry
The ideal bullet array was to use the unit as the axis and spray the beam bullets out, and the “Unicorn” understood how to use the Beaed to maximize the effectiveness of the arht time for the new Gundam-type to escape
“Those two Gundam planned this beforehand…!”
Considering the time the two units interacted with each other, it would be impossible for him to be so adept at this so quickly What kind of coelo used up the last Strum Faust, threw the launcher at the “Unicorn” and let the “Geara Zulu” fly over at it Right when the beaelo, can you hear me?) A calm voice came from the wireless communicator
(Retreat back to the “Rewloola” Let Ensign Marida be the “Unicorn”s opponent)
Frontal’s voice caushi+ng full of blood calue back for a moment, “I should have told you the plan, have I not?) the voice interrupted Angelo’s atteue back, and he stopped the vibration of the beam hook
(The “Kshatriya” is heading there now This is so only she can do)
Angelo stepped on the foot pedal and raised the ball-shaped control stick to move above the “Unicorn” as it raised a screen of bullets, looking for the coordinates of his ally unit on the motion sensor
It was the NZ-666 “Kshatriya”; while the other allied forces were retreating, this was the onlycloser There was a sense of presence that that was beyond electronic signals, engulfing the sensor screen Angelo looked back at the “Unicorn” that looked bothered as he continued to retreat, and had the anger of a prey being snatched away reigniting within hier that”
“…It’s a job for Cyber-Newtypes, huh?”
He accidentally blurted it out in his anger, annoying him The Newtype Research labs were used to create artificial Cyber-Newtypes for military use In the past, it was said to be used for research on ways to create Newtypes, but in fact, they were experi on lab subjects that would not offer any ill consequences—said to be nored the ethics of life
Their research ranged fro and rewriting ene composition to improve their respiratory functions The results of the the human mind and mental capacity were that they simply created a bunch of useless people ere addicted to drugs Theythe Neo Zeon war later on, but the emotionally unstable hued swords It had been a long time since the Federation and Neo Zeon ceased such research, and, looking at the significance of how official records did not leave any traces of this, it could be said that Cyber-Newtypes was a shameful history that was erased by Man after the war
Most notable was Marida Cruz, who inherited the best gene sah mobility combat It was said that she was at a level where the other Cyber-Newtypes could never ever lanced aside at the RX-0 that was becoated the unit’s trajectory to the southern tip of the “Palau”
Frontal’s “Sinanju” too was gradually returning back to the southern tip to gather with the fleet Everything’s proceeding as planned— yes, this was a battlefield enacted out under Frontal’s plan As for what kind of nature the monster that devoured the “Laplace Box” would show, their side just needed to watch it froed to more or less appease his unhappiness as he looked at this abnormally shaped mobile suit that bore this responsibility The “Kshatriya” was not limited by the massive bulk that was several times that of an ordinary mobile suit as it skillfully turned around and passed by the “Geara Zulu”s feet
Part 10
Marida activated the binder that was just repaired, and let the machine turn around The front left binder was the only one aed to stop the “Kshatriya” fro sideways any further
The controls felt a little light, but it was not bad in any means Marida had no need to deliberately activate the calibration systeot used to the AMBAC functions She then used the sub-arether with the binder in the last battle, and the base unit part had to be replaced It quickly extended out, and the fingertips did a hook CRAK CRAK The sound entered the cockpit in the form of a tremor, and Marida knew that the unit was repaired
It’s really lucky that the Psycoht At this y to build the Psycommu frame, and the spare parts of the “Kshatriya” only consisted of ordinary mobile suits alone The reactivity of the unit would be reduced by half once the Psycoed, and they could not repair it at will later on This ‘spare part’ and this one and only unit were all built froainst this opponent that was built from a Psycoframe? Marida expanded the monitor , directed the cursor to the CG corrected lone-horned body and cautiously closed in her distance with the “Unicorn”
The “Unicorn” did not co the ene while retreating steadily, showing that it was observing her actions The weapon in its hands is newly developed for this “Kshatriya” here, Marida gave a wry look as she looked right at the white hts Did he rando to take thethat nonchalant-looking boy with keen foresight would do; to be able to use his sharp instincts to grab such a powerful weapon
(I don’t kno that brat got hold of the “Unicorn”, but there’s one thing I kno, and that is we can’t let that machine fall into the Federation’s hands)
Zinnerst the noise from the “Garencieres”, currently at a rear side of the fleet Marida exhaled and removed her wry look
(You can destroy any other part as long as the cockpit core in intact Your top priority is to secure the unit Don’t think about the pilot
The soft voice proved that Zinnerman was concerned about the pilot, or perhaps he was considering the fact that they would have to fight him as their opponent “Understood I’ll secure the unit as priority” Marida answered without any expression as she ceased all hts If possible, she would capture the unit without any dae; if not, she had to rip out the cockpit’s core without even the pilot was crushed Marida herself had no hesitation no matter who it was on board There was no need for an Artificial Being to spend ti about it
Even till now, Marida found it hard that Banagher Links, that boy with puppy-like earnest-looking eyes was the pilot of the “Unicorn” At this point, there was no clear explanation as to what sort of thoughts he had, and what methods he used to reach the ‘cove’, but the fact remained that the “Unicorn” joined the battle Marida looked through the machine’s specifications, and knew that she would be o all out She could only accept this situation, face it and try to deal with it if she could do it well and end things properly, her failure at “Industrial 7” would be negated She did not have any honor and pride worth protecting, but she had to erase the black mark on MasterZinnerman
“There isn't any just war, is there…?”
Even though she tried to conceal these words within, such personal thoughts still leaked out If only humanity could have Gods, there would be as many Gods as Man Justice would not exist in this case, and righteousnessthat could save hu hu, no other means of beliefs to rely on, and there was no need for her to change—Marida shook aside the ie of the boy’s face she saw in the chapel and looked forith an antagonizing look She accelerated the “Kshatriya” by boosting the thrusters to the maximum and started to close the relative distance with the “Unicorn”
Part 11
The transported goods were filled inside the large bucket and sent onto the rail of the electronetic catapult As the bucket reached the end point, the contents would be thrown into space This would be a crude way of explaining things, but it was the working principle of a mass driver
The transported goods that were thrown out would pass through space through inertia, and the mass catcher at the destination wo
