Vol 14 Chapter 1 (2/2)

──I, I’m scolding you like this while……my b.u.t.t right now……is being filled……by my loved one♥

The inside of her chest felt disordered when she muttered that in her heart. Guilt and pleasure became jumbled together. It felt like her chest was brushed with fur from the inside.

Her self-condemning words drove even more pleasure into Hayuru.

Hayuru licked her lips while sighing.

「Haa……nn, really, doing something like that in the academy, you should be ashamed. Fo-, for G.o.d’s sake-!」

──He was only hugging and kissing. It was something cute compared to what I’m doing.

Hayuru looked up at Kizuna over her shoulder.

Kizuna was unconsciously startled by her eyes.

Hayuru’s eyes were moist. It was so bewitching that he shuddered.

And then he instinctually sensed what those eyes were pleading for.

──Is it, really okay?

Kizuna only frowned. However it seemed it went through to Hayuru. She slightly nodded.

「……tsu」

Kizuna hesitantly pulled out his thing from inside Hayuru.

However he stopped at the thickest part and pushed inside once more.

「Kuuh……!♥」

Hayuru gritted her teeth and held back her voice.

──My, my b.u.t.t, it’s melting……-!!

The student who was discovered kissing was hanging his head down outside the door.

「I’m sorry……I, won’t do it anymore.」

──No, no good. I’m already……the, the feeling of my lower body is…….

「I, if you understand then, there is nothing more to say.」

「Yes. But senpai.」

──Wha, what? I’m, already, can’t think of anything here…….

「But I can’t change the fact that I love that girl. I’ll refrain in the academy but, outside the academy, we……」

Hayuru’s moist lips smiled.

「Do, do as you like. You mustn’t……make the girl you love, sad okay?」

「Ye……yes-! Thank you very much!」

A joyful voice came from outside the door.

「Ju, just, g, go……already……-!!」

The moment she heard the footstep that was getting distant, something hot was fired into Hayuru’s intestine.

「……tsu!!♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥」

Hayuru bit the sleeve of her uniform and desperately held back her voice. Something hard was pulsating inside her b.u.t.t. The inside of her stomach was filled by something hot with great momentum.

Kizuna spurted out everything he had in the state where he pushed in deeply until the base. He shot out with a momentum as though he wanted it flowed out from inside Hayuru.

「A……aa♥……haa……♥」

Hayuru’s body trembled. Her legs were also shaking.

「Hayuru.」

Her face that was looking down was lifted up. There she was making an expression that was enraptured with pleasure.

Her eyes slovenly opened and drool was trickling to the desk> She looked as though she had fainted.

It was a face that couldn’t possibly be shown to other public morals committee member. The absentminded face that was drowning in obscene pleasure was outrageously lewd and beautiful.

「Hayuru……」

「Ha……aa……nh♥」

Her gaze was vacant. Her pupils were unfocused. She didn’t even seem like she heard Kizuna addressing her.

He let her like that and caressed her head and back for a while. Around the time Hayuru’s breathing settled down and he pulled back, Kizuna himself slipped out smoothly.

「Aa……」

An ardent sigh leaked out from Hayuru’s lips.

Hayuru’s b.u.t.t was becoming spread out with Kizuna’s size and didn’t close back.

「Are you alright, Hayuru?」

Hayuru lifted her upper body from the desk and looked up at Kizuna with damp eyes.

「……I’m not, alright.」

「I, I see……perhaps, I overdid it?」

Hayuru stood up with unsteady legs. Kizuna embraced her to support her body. Then Hayuru pressed her cheek on Kizuna’s chest fawningly.

「It was amazing♥」

Hayuru looked up and they lightly kissed, then Kizuna tidied up his appearance.

「……Then, let’s return to the dorm.」

「Yes. Before that……I’m sorry but, can I ask you to do one thing for me?」

Hayuru rummaged her pocket and took out something small. From a glance it looked like a bottle cap or a wine stopper.

She looked up at Kizuna with blus.h.i.+ng cheeks and upturned eyes.

「If my b.u.t.t……keep being open like this, it……Kizunkun’s will drip down so……please」

Her smile was bewitching and terrifyingly erotic.

Part 6

Kei glanced at the clock.

Soon the date would change. Surely Kizuna and Hayuru were working hard doing the ultimate hybrid right now.

Kei mused about Reiri’s line inside her head.

『Today is a little bit……I gave my turn to Himekawa.』

This was Reiri who was generally accepted as a brocon. That Reiri gave up her turn?

When she was drunk she would say,

『That Kizuna, she said something like my breast is the best……fufufu, that spoiled child』

She would boast like that happily. That Reiri gave up her turn?

Incidentally, Kei wished that Reiri would stop making that kind of boast because she was troubled of how to react.

……An adult’s composure?

Perhaps, inside Reiri there was some thinking of hers that changed. She must be suppressing her affection and desire to monopolize her little brother and took a step back to observe the situation calmly.

──As expected from someone who served as commander, she has a different caliber.

At that timing, Reiri who went to another room returned into the command room. The second floor of the command room was an empty s.p.a.ce only for them the commander and deputy commander. Kei talked to her not using keyboard but directly with her voice.

「Reiri, what about the presentation of the plan of new weapon development?」

「It’s not bad but……Kurumizawa is too partial toward firearm. And most of all, can’t something be done about that naming?」

「I also agree with that.」

「Reiri-sama.」

Suddenly a third person’s voice who wasn’t Reiri or Kei spoke up.

「Valdy huh. What’s the matter?」

The corner of the room flickered. The next moment a tall and slender woman was standing. It was the former royal guard of Vatlantis Empire Valdy.

She accompanied Reiri like a shadow, protected her from all danger, and obeyed her order with absolute obedience. She was an existence like a ninja serving her lord.

「You need to rest soon.」

「Hm?」

Reiri looked up to the clock on the wall.

「It’s still 12 o’clock but……I guess you’re right.」

Valdy kneeled and bowed her head.

「I’ve acted impertinently……forgive me.」

「Kei.」

Reiri made a slightly apologetic face.

「I’ll take my leave after this. Contact me if something happen.」

「Roger. Reiri too, rest well.」

Kei wouldn’t use her voice in a place that had other people than Reiri, but Valdy was the only one that she didn’t really mind about. She replied to her really naturally.

Reiri nodded slightly and moved to exit the command room. It was then.

A grating electronic voice resounded through the command room.

Everyone inside the command room looked around in surprise.

「……What?」

Reiri and Kei’s expression stiffened as though they had just heard something unbelievable. Reiri’s eyes changed into a sharpness that reminded them of the battle in the past.

「This sound……」

This sound shouldn’t sound right now.

Kei looked at Reiri with a fl.u.s.tered face.

「It shouldn’t be……but」

But this was a sound that they had heard many times before.

──It was air-raid alarm that notified them of invader from another world.

Part 7

Kizuna and Hayuru left the academy together, then they stopped by at a nearby shopping mall.

Shop employee would talk to them when they had a look at a store front. Like that they were enjoying their shopping casually. But even while doing that, the a.n.a.l plug that was inserted into Hayuru’s b.u.t.t continued to grant her pleasure steadily.

──Really me, I’m walking outside with this obscene thing inside me like this and talk to other people like it’s nothing…….

The more she thought that, the more secret arousal was piling up inside her.

They took dinner outside and returned to the dorm when it became really late.

And then that arousal exploded when they entered inside Hayuru’s room.

「AaAAANNH! Ki-, Kizunkun! Thi-this is, ama……aAN!!♥♥♥」

Three hours already pa.s.sed since the two started the act of making love.

However the completely trained body of the two didn’t show any fatigue. Even after reaching climax many times over, Hayuru was still mounting above Kizuna while naked.

Kizuna’s thing was alredy gouging the inside of Hayuru. The hard thing that was towering up was being accepted by Hayuru’s lower lips that were overflowing with honey.

The tightness wasn’t as severe as the rear one, even so it was tight enough and also soft despite that. All of Hayuru’s inside was lovingly clutching Kizuna’s thing, producing pleasure for both of them.

But it wasn’t just Kizuna’s thing that was granting Hayuru pleasure. At Hayuru’s rear was a black tail wriggling as though to express her happiness. In exchange of the a.n.a.l plug that was inserted into Hayuru’s a.n.a.l, there was a tail that was inserted into her right now. The subtle vibration that was jolting her inside was also transmitted slightly to Kizuna.

「Hayuru, is it painful?」

「Hah, aaah! I’m, fine-. Kizunkun, are you, feeling good too?」

「Yeah, of course, I am!」

He thrust up from below to answer Hayuru.

「HaaUUUNN♥♥」

──I’m being loved by Kizunkun from the front and from the back……it’s like I’m being loved twice over……I’m happy♥

And then Hayuru twisted her waist so that everywhere inside her body could sense the feel of Kizuna.

「I now understand really well of what to do so Hayuru can feel good by asking you to move above me like this.」

「Yahn♥ Do, don’t mind me-! As, as long Kizunkun can feel good then」

She moved her body up and down like she was jumping while saying such laudable words.

Hayuru’s b.r.e.a.s.t.s that recently got slightly bigger were dancing up and down. He grasped those b.r.e.a.s.t.s with both hands and thoroughly ma.s.saged it by lifting it up and grabbing it down.

「AAAAH! Ki, Kizunkun. Is it still not good? I, I’m, already」

「I’m also at my limit already. You can come now, Hayuru.」

「Ye, yes-♥ AAAAAAAAAAH! Cu, c.u.mming, I’m comiiiiiingggg♥」

Hayuru tightened on Kizuna’s thing hard.

The tail that extended from her b.u.t.t stretched up tensely.

Kizuna’s waist floated to make his thing reached until Hayuru’s deepest part. In that instant, he fired from his tip like an explosion. That pressure spurted and struk Hayuru’s inside.

「Hih♥aAAAAAAHKUuUUUUUUUUhHHNNNNNN♥♥♥」

Hayuru bent her body backward and looked up. Her exposed neck quivered.

And then the radiance that conveyed the success of ultimate hybrid filled the room.

Hayuru’s body stiffened and convulsed repeatedly. At that timing Hayuru’s inside moved repeatedly as though to swallow the thing that Kizuna spurted out.

「A, aa……aan♥♥」

The climax continued for long. Hayuru kept immersing himself in the climax while keeping her throat exposed.

──I, I’m dying……this just…….feels too good♥

「Hayuru……」

Kizuna pinched the tip of Hayuru’s chest that was jiggling to drag her back from heaven.

「Aa……」

And then he gently ma.s.saged her breast as though to envelop it.

「Kizunkun♥」

She stared at Kizuna with eyes that were moist with pleasure. It couldn’t be helped even if her face right now was called as debauched. Her expression was just that lewd.

Hayuru smiled and licked her lips, then she began to shake her waist──at that timing,

『It’s emergency!!』

Suddenly Reiri’s close up picture appeared in front of the two.

「NNKYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!?」

「Ne-! Nee-chan!?」

The half transparent screen floating in the air was projecting Reiri’s tense face.

『Kizuna, Himekawa! Gather to the command room!』

「Wa, wait a second. Just what’s with the hurry?」

Kizuna said that while thinking about the detail of the emergency situation.

However currently there was no enemy that could become a threat to Ataraxia even if they searched anywhere on earth.

If Reiri was this fl.u.s.tered from the situation, then it wouldn’t be from external enemy but from some kind of accident……such possibility was high.

But Reiri’s next words blew away that conjecture of Kizuna.

It wasn’t a mere threat,

But a bigger mystery.

And also a shocking one,

『A magic weapon appeared.』

Part 8

──Magic weapon, it was the main weapon of Vatlantis Empire, the invader from other world, an unmanned invasion weapon.

The AU Collision that happened twice in the past. At that time Entrances, contact point with other world materialized everywhere in the world. A great number of magic weapons invaded into this world from there and carried out destruction and ma.s.sacre repeatedly.

But that battle had ended and the Entrance had also vanished. That was why magic weapon also shouldn’t exist.

That was how it should be.

When Kizuna rushed into the command room, Aine, Yuris.h.i.+a, and Sylvia were already gathering there. Kizuna didn’t even greet them and yelled toward Reiri.

「Just what in the world is going on, why is magic weapon here!?」

Reiri was sitting on the commander’s seat and staring at the monitor that was projecting information one after another.

「The security system has still only detected the mana energy──but, the measured value is resembling magic weapon. We’re in the middle of collecting information right now. Wait there quietly.」

When he looked at the first floor, he could see there were the thirty seats for operator and students twice that number moving around busily.

Everyone was frenzied with anxiety and impatience. But that couldn’t be helped.

Various feelings were also whirling inside Kizuna.

Why was magic weapon here now?

Could it be, another AU Collision had occurred?

If the other party was Grace or Gravel, there should be some kind of contact from them. But then why magic weapon was sent here instead?

Even Hayuru who came together with Kizuna was frowning in doubt.

「Isn’t this some kind of mistake? Because, we were told that AU Collision won’t happen again……」

Yuris.h.i.+a folded her arms as though to lift up her huge b.r.e.a.s.t.s from below and gave a smile of agreement with Hayuru.

「Yes. Isn’t the system mistaking a new weapon of a country somewhere with magic weapon?」

Everyone was looking up to the monitor that was displaying the world map. There the location of the magic weapon was displayed. From the direction of its movement, it looked like it was heading here from South America continent.

「Is the plan to evaluate its capability with all of us here desu?」

Sylvia shrank into herself like a scared little animal.

「Something like that doesn’t matter!!」

Aine who was quiet until then suddenly yelled.

Her movement made her silver hair that reached until her b.u.t.t to become disheveled and she stared at Reiri with wavering red eyes.

「Is that magic weapon the real thing!? What about the Entrance? Where did it appear!?」

Aine desperately maintained her calm, but even that had reached the limit. And then after it crossed the limit, her rampaging emotion couldn’t be braked.

Kizuna gently touched Aine’s shoulder.

「Aine, calm down. We only know that the reading is similar to a magic weapon, but we still don’t know its true ident.i.ty. Right now let’s wait for more information.」

「But! Perhaps we’ll be able to come and go to Vatlantis again you know!? Perhaps we’ll be able to meet with everyone, with Grace!!」

Aine’s pleading that even sounded like a cry hurt Kizuna’s chest.

「You’re right……sorry, Aine.」

──I want Aine to be here. Aine answered that wish of mine and threw away Atlantis and her position as Vatlantis emperor and stayed here for me. She discarded the world where she spent her childhood in, her beloved little sister, and the va.s.sals who look up to her.

Kizuna grimaced and clenched his fist tightly.

──For Aine living in Lemuria is something that she need to pay a lot of sacrifices for. Even I am thinking that I want to meet again with Grace and Gravel so much. However, the strength of Aine’s feeling should be incomparable with mine.

Was Aine’s presence here in this world really leading to her happiness?

Was he simply forcing Aine to make a sacrifice just to satisfy his own ego?

Aine returned to her senses seeing Kizuna’s pained face.

「Ah……tha, that’s not it. Kizuna, that’s not it.」

Aine clung on Kizuna’s chest with a panicked face.

「I didn’t mean that when I spoke just now. It’s true okay? That’s why Kizuna, don’t make that face.」

「……Thank you Aine. But, it’s also the truth that I’m making Aine to feel lonely.」

「That’s why I’m telling you that’s not it!」

Tension ran through the atmosphere of the command room.

Hayuru forcefully made a smile to interrupt the two.

「Ca, calm down……Aine-san.」

Aine didn’t pay any attention to Hayuru who was trying to calm her down and pressed on Kizuna.

「I’m here because I decided it myself! That’s why I’m here! I wasn’t forced by anyone!」

「Aine……」

At that time, an excited voice of an operator came.

「The satellite data arrived! It’ll take several seconds for the 3D processing──the picture is complete!!」

Everyone held their breath and looked up to the giant screen on the wall.

And then──,

「What!?」

「That’s!?」

「Unbelievable!!」 (TN: This one is said in English, not j.a.pan)

「FUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!?」

Everyone raised a surprised voice.

「What, the……」

Reiri glared at the object projected in the screen with a grim gaze.

It was something extremely familiar for them.

It was a dragon with long neck.

A winged torso.

On its back was a humanoid upper body.

Its true ident.i.ty was already clear to anyone watching.

Aine’s lips muttered its name.

「……Dragre.」

It was an opponent that they had fought in the past many times.

Category A cla.s.s magic weapon.

Reiri stood up.

「Amaterasu, march out! Wake up the Masters too!」

The command room became flurried all at once.

The true ident.i.ty was now known but, it created many more bewilderment and questions. In order to solve it there was no other way that to actually clash with it.

「Let’s go! Everyone!!」

「Roger!!」

Part 9

Aine, Hayuru, Yuris.h.i.+a, and Sylvia each equipped their Heart Hybrid Ger and flew through Pacific Ocean.

Even the sea that was pitch black when they departed Ataraxia was gradually becoming clearer that they could see the shape of the waves. The starry sky receded and the sky ahead of them got brighter.

「I can see it!」

A black silhouette emerged from the rising sun. The form of the upper body of armored knight attached on the back of a large winged dragon.

「There is no mistake! It’s a Dragre!!」

Aine yelled in excitement. In contrast Yuris.h.i.+a was smiling leisurely.

「It’s true~. Somehow it feels nostalgic.」

「To think that we will fight it one more time……」

Hayuru muttered with a disbelieving face. However from her there was no wariness from her like in the past. Dragre was once a powerful enemy, but against their current self it wasn’t their match. They had that conviction.

Their interest instead lied in where did it come from and why did it exist.

「Yosh. Let’s capture it without destroying it for the investigation.」

The instant Kizuna ordered that──,

Dragre’s mouth opened and its inside turned bright.

──It’ll breath flame huh.

Should he defend with barrier or dodge?

If it was in the past this was where he would feel anxious, but now he could deal with it calmly.

Bright red flame was breathed out from the largely opened mouth of Dragre. The flame approached them with a roar like a dragon.

──But, its speed suddenly increased, turning into a streak of bright light that drew near.

「!? Be careful!」

Kizuna yelled that. At the same time he deployed his barrier. The barrier of light appeared in front of Kizuna and others. Dragre’s beam crashed on it.

「UOOOH!?」

Light burst.

The barrier creaked and an impact that made it felt like Kizuna’s arm would break was added.

「Wha……what!? This power!!」

──It’s different from Dragre in the past!

「Everyone!」

Everyone understood with that single word.

The five of them scattered at the same time when Kizuna’s barrier broke.

「Mode Neros!!」

Kizuna yelled. Heart Hybrid Gear, Eros’s light changed from pink to Neros’s red in respond to his voice.

It was ability copy of a partner’s Heart Hybrid Gear through Heart Hybrid. This was Eros’s other special ability that matched Heart Hybrid.

「Sword!!」

Kizuna lifted his hand and yelled, then a sword’s hilt appeared at his fingertip. When he grabbed that, a sword was created in the blink of eye.

Kizuna took a stance with that sword and a.s.saulted Dragre.

However the knight on its back aimed its gunsword at Kizuna to protect the dragon. The particle bullet that was fired hit Kizuna’s arm that was holding the sword.

「Guuh!?」

Its aim was accurate, its reaction speed was fast, and the bullet speed was also in a different league.

He kicked on the air and changed direction, even so the shots were following him. And then ahead of it──,

「Tsk!!」

The beam shaped flame that was breathed from the dragon’s mouth was waiting for him.

The knight and dragon worked together splendidly. Even though in the past its attack was sketchier──Kizuna muttered that inside his heart while moving to deploy his barrier once more.

「Blade!!」

Neros’s midrange suppression weapon attacked Dragre. The knight prioritized defense and aimed its muzzle toward the Blade.

However there──,

「Hel Fire!!」

Yuris.h.i.+a who took distance showered it with all out shooting of Differential Frame. A bunch of golden light hit Dragre’s neck.

Dragre changed the direction of its neck toward Yuris.h.i.+a with the sound like a lot of gears creaking together. Yuris.h.i.+a switched the Differential Frame from total offense into propulsion force. But, her evasion didn’t make it in time. Dragre’s flame attacked Yuris.h.i.+a as though it was cutting apart the sky.

「You won’t succeed desu!!」

Taros cut in between them.

It lifted its huge right arm that contained its Corruption Armament and blocked Dragre’s flame.

「KyaWAaAaAAAAH!?」

Crimson flame spread in the sky.

Yuris.h.i.+a’s anxious voice resounded.

「Sylvia!! Are you okay!?」

Taros was knocked back by the explosion’s impact, but Sylvia immediately replied with a lively voice.

「Sylvia is fine desu! Taros’s armor can endure just this much desu!」

Sylvia’s Taros halted in midair and aimed the main cannons on its shoulders toward Dragre.

「Ignis!!」

The large caliber particle cannon that rivaled the main cannon of a battles.h.i.+p spat out fire together with Sylvia’s yell. The surrounding’s temperature instantly rose and wind blew violently.

Dragre also deployed barrier using magic power at its front. Enormous flame blast spread in the sky.

There was the figure of Dragre without a single scratch on it at the other side of the flame and smoke.

──Strong.

Kizuna’s eyes became much sharper.

「It’s impossible to capture it alive! We’re defeating it!」

「「「「Roger!!」」」」

Everyone replied back simultaneously.

Sylvia fired up Taros’s rocket engine and went in front of everyone.

「Sylvia will become the s.h.i.+eld desu! Use that chance!!」

Without delay Yuris.h.i.+a switched Differential frame into attacking.

「h.e.l.l Fire!!」

Differential Frame that was installed with several particle cannons fired simultaneously. Several streaks of light drew a line while heading toward Dragre.

Dragre’s barrier was smashed apart with a sound like gla.s.s breaking.

「HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!」

Aine who was looking for an opening until now flew into Dragre’s chest.

A powerful kick that was boosted by her acceleration’s momentum penetrated the knight’s stomach.

By all right she should easily penetrate through. But instead her kick was stopped with only her ankles sinking in.

The knight’s eyes s.h.i.+ned and the sword tip of its gunsword s.h.i.+ned.

「You-!」

Aine kicked the knight’s stomach with her other foot and pulled out her foot. However the sword attacked her defenseless back.

「NUAAAAAH!」

「Kizuna!?」

Kizuna spread out his barrier with his right hand alone and flew in front of Aine. However the barrier that was half way deployed was easily smashed.

「Guaah!」

Aine caught Kizuna who was sent flying.

Drops of red blood were flowing in front of Aine’s eyes.

「Kizun!?」

The right arm’s armor that covered Aine was broken and blood was flowing.

Aine’s face distorted in anger the instant she saw that blood.

「How dare you……」

Aine drew back with her thruster working in full while strongly hugging Kizuna in her arms.

「Calm down Aine, this is just a scratch.」

「But-!」

Taros stood in the way of the Dragre that came chasing them.

「You won’t pa.s.s here desu!」

Taros’s barrier and Dragre’s barrier clashed.

It was a battle of power now that it became like this.

──I can’t imagine Talos lose, but it will become an exchange of shots the instant the s.h.i.+elds of both sides are broken. If that happen then even Sylvia won’t get away unscathed.

Even if they defeated it, Kizuna wanted to just turn it unable to fight and then brought it until Ataraxia. If they investigated it they might understand why magic weapon came back like this.

But, the situation right now didn’t allow such thing anymore.

Now it might get annihilated until no trace of it remained, but if it went well then they might be able to at least bring its wreckage home.

「Hayuru!」

Kizuna called the name of Amaterasu member who possessed the strongest weapon at this time.

「Yes-!」

After all he was doing ultimate hybrid together with Hayuru right before they were called.

That was why──,

「Use Gladius!!」

「Roger!!」

Hayuru unhesitatingly thrust out her hand. Red magic circle spread out on her fingertips.

「Corruption Armament! Gladius!!」

The magic circle roated slowly and became triple layered. The magic formula automatically expanded.

A cylinder that was excessively long to be a sword handle appeared from inside it.

Hayuru grabbed it and pulled it out in one go from the magic circle.

It was a large sword with a handle that was already the size of a normal sword. A sword with strange appearance of three blades in one sword made its appearance.

Red particles were circulating on the blade part and emitted bewitching light. The thing that was touched by this blade would be severed no matter what it was. It severed by rejecting the target’s connection as an existence.

If it was now after they had done ultimate hybrid, it would be possible to deny the enemy’s connection with this world and erased it.

──But,

「Hayuru! Don’t eliminate it completely, we want to recover its remains!」

「Understood!」

「Sylvia! Get away in five more seconds! Start counting down!」

「Roger desu! 5!!」

「Yuris.h.i.+a!」

「Leave the cover fire to me!!」

「4!」

And then Kizuna exchanged eye contact with Aine. When Kizuna pointed below, Aine pointed up, then the two separated to above and below.

「3!」

Hayuru took a deep breath and focused her mind.

「2!」

Neros’s armor opened and the red light at its inner part s.h.i.+ned radiantly.

「1!」

Yuris.h.i.+a fixed her aim on the Dragre and adjusted her aiming in detail by predicting the future development.

「Here I go desu!!」

Taros’s barrier vanished.

「Ignis!!」

The large caliber particle cannon that was fired from point-blank range directly hit Dragre’s s.h.i.+eld. All the heat was focused into one spot.

「h.e.l.l Fire!!」

Cross’s all out bombardment landed on the impact point of Ignis with pinpoint precision.

Dragre’s s.h.i.+eld burst in that moment.

Taros used Ignis’s backlash to make a big jump backward. Hayuru charged toward Dragre as replacement.

「HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!」

The speed of Neros that was powered up by ultimate hybrid wasn’t ordinary.

The knight detected Hayuru’s approach and readied its gunsword.

At that time the knight was already severed from the dragon.

The knight’s body crumbled and vanished without even any time to rise the shriek of death agony.

And then its other half the dragon was also going to collapse.

「Kizuna!」

「Aine!」

The nose diving Zeros and the steeply climbing Eros.

「UOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!」

「HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!」

Their aim was Dragre’s dragon neck.

The kick of Zeros that surpa.s.sed the speed of sound and Eros’s sword that slashed with all its strength attacked the dragon’s neck from above and below.

Aine’s kick dented the armor and crushed the machine inside.

Kizuna’s sword cut apart the metal and dig in until halfway the neck.

The pressure from above and below that targeted a single spot snapped the Dragre’s neck. The armor was crushed and magic power spurt out like blood. Its internal machine parts flowed out like entrails.

The neck was pulverized midway and the head was cut off.

The effect of Gladius encroached into the dragon’s body at that timing and reached the neck.

And then everything became fragments of light.

The fragments sparkled and flew away with the wind.

In the middle of the magic power particles that danced in the air, Kizuna turned his palm toward Aine. And then Aine also turned her palm toward him. The two’s palm lightly clapped *pan*.

And then Aine entwined her fingers with Kizuna’s fingers to hold his hand.

「But Kizuna……even if it got away from Gladius’s effect, the magic weapon would still vanish wouldn’t it?」

「Normally it will be like that but……if that’s the case, the Dragre’s existence in this world itself is strange. I thought that perhaps we will be able to recover its wreckage.」

「Something like that──」

「Captaiiiin!」

Taros’s huge frame flew up from the nearby sea surface below.

Aine opened her eyes wide in surprise.

「Sylvia picked this up desu!!」

Dragre’s neck was there in Taros’s arms without vanis.h.i.+ng.

Part 10

「The Dragre was defeated.」

「……tsk」

Christelle clicked her tongue hearing Elfriede’s report.

But, Amaterasu’s location was at the other side of the horizon. Elfriede loked toward the figure of Kziuna and others who she shouldn’t be able to see and sighed.

「Furthermore the head part was taken away.」

「Aau! Geez!!」

Christelle swung her fist as though her opponent was there.

「Do something about it! Is that rifle on your back just a decoration!?」

「Please don’t ask for something unreasonable. What I can do is only peeking at best. I would only notify them of my presence if I sniped at them. I cannot match them with my capability.」

「I know that! I just want to say it! It’s a mystery how you can be that calm-!」

「Thank you very much.」

「I’m not praising you!」

Elfriede’s Dagura was a gear that specialized in long range sniping. But its ability to grasp the situation of distant place was remarkably greater than its offensive power.

「However, with this we have grasped the enemy’s detection capability and their scramble’s reaction time.」

「Exactly! Well, that’s our actual objective, so it’s not like I’m bothered at all!」

Christelle’s mood completely changed.

「Besides this is just the opening move.」

Christelle narrowed her eyes and smiled mysteriously.

「After all Ataraxia will fall to my hand with just a little bit more!」
