Chapter 3 – Reinstall
Part 1
One of the patient rooms in Nayuta Lab The door of that room quietly opened Kizuna peeked at the situation inside the roo down on the bed Her usually tied hair was let free and her hair that was longer than her shoulder was spreading on the pillow Several cables and tubes were connected from under her blanket into the ure that had different atht tension
Kizuna was going to put the fruit basket he brought at her bedside but his hand stopped There was the visiting presents piled up there by the previous guest, there was no place for him to put his
“You are famous huh”
Kizuna made a faint smile
“……Ah, boss Kizuna”
Gertrude Baird slightly opened her eyes and looked up at Kizuna
“My bad I woke you up”
Stopping Gertrude fro present at the empty space by theHe could see the panoramic view of Ataraxia froood vieever what could be seen from there was the scar left by Hokuto, a really painful scenery
The configuration information of the world taken back by nayuta Ataraxia that was reconstructed froure just fro Ataraxia had collapsed, half of the urban area and industrial area was changed into scorched earth The facility below third floor underground was safe, but there was no doubt that they received a really serious blow The current Gertrude who couldn’t wake up from the bed couldn’t see that scenery, in that respect she was being fortunate instead
“You intentionally coet better already?”
“Yeah I’ Gertrude is lifted up today, so I came to visit but……”
Kizuna sat down at the circle chair on the bedside
“Looks like there is guest before me”
He looked up at the piled up box of fruit and snack Book, gaun and electric airsoft gun, even toy drone and robot were also there It was co that there were even bicycle and surfboard, but perhaps they had the et healthy so she could play them
Staring at the ed her shoulder
“Various people came by turns, I cannot have any peace at all”
“Those guys are bad huh”
Kizuna floated a wry smile
“But Masters are all hospitalized right? Who came here then?”
“The fellows from my class cah she is busy, she is really driven by strong sense of duty Besides……Gravel also came”
The end of Gertrude’s sentence sounded quieter from a little shyness
He had ca Gravel several times in her hospitalization It was fortunate that her injury wasn’t as serious as they thought He and Gravel was discharged fro, since then for some reason there was also a lot of chance to meet
Currently there was only Kizuna and Gravel ere discharged from hospital Next were Hihtly injured and Zelsione who didn’t participate in the battle The e although the degree of their injury was different
“……Nevertheless, your luck was bad You are the one with the heaviest injury”
“Good grief really Like this don’t I look like I’e froreeable than this”
“No, you received that attack, it’s only natural you got like this Rather the other Masters who only got light injury, isn’t it better to call the very lucky?”
“I’ evil luck instead”
The other members of Masters who received the same attack were also in the middle of treatment at the same hospital However the one seriously injured was only Gertrude, the other members would be able to return to the battlefront relatively quickly
Gertrude had bad luck, on top of receiving direct attack, she was struck to the buildings of Ataraxia several times As the result, she bore serious injury that made her lost in the border of life and death while in ICU
“Get well quickly okay When Masters are not here, it feels like we are lacking the mood maker after all”
“The other girls are going to get out soon, so I’ll leave it to them”
Gertrude looked up at the ceiling with eyes that looked lonely
“Boss Kizuna……those ht with them?”
“Yeah……but their strength is not so half-assed There is a need for us to obtain even stronger power We are going to try all the e can take and find the method to oppose Deus ex Machina”
“Is that so……in that case, I’ to become unneeded anymore am I……”
