Chapter 672 – Judge
After leaving the city’s central palace, I headed towards the northeast, where Bessmore was coming.
He lifted himself up using telekinesis and moved into the sky.
I guess I’ve become quite accustomed to using telekinesis, so flying in the sky looks quite realistic.
However, the speed was not as high as when Sunni assisted.
I can’t help it.
It may be because it’s been a while since I’ve been properly aware of and used it, so I’m not used to it…
Or, it may be the limit of supernatural powers that can be used with thought alone.
Well… It’s just that the speed is not satisfactory for my standards, but the flight speed is around 100 or 200 km/h.
There was plenty of time to meet Basmore before he came to this city.
I was planning to prevent Bessmore from setting foot in this city.
It was to prevent him from interfering with Helena’s work, but she also had to think about fighting him.
Battle is inevitable.
It is not a problem that can be solved through dialogue.
And considering the power that Besmore possessed, fighting within the city had to be avoided.
The aftermath of the battle is not at a level that the citizens of this city can bear.
Many beauties in the city will lose their lives.
I don’t like playing heroes, but I was planning on becoming a hero today, at least for the beauties of the city.
〈 Tsk tsk.〉
Cosmos clicked his tongue, unable to understand the meaning, but pretended not to hear.
In the panoramic view of the city from the sky, a group of Zephyria military troops were seen in battle formation heading towards the central palace where Helena was located.
It seems like all the military forces in the city have been gathered.
I think he probably received instructions from the Karaz headquarters.
I don’t need to worry.
I didn’t feel any significant threat from the military, and Nora and Rebellion seemed to be enough.
Since the magic suppression device has been removed, it won’t be difficult to defend against that level of troops.
『Bark. Do you know the coordinates at which the city can move through space?』
Helena’s voice reached my ears.
‘Telepathy? No… Is it a function of the Great Demon Castle?’
I mostly entrusted the management of the Great Demon Castle to Cosmos, so I didn’t know the detailed functions, but I knew the basics.
Contrary to its appearance, the Great Devil Castle was a collection of over-technology that was difficult to create even with Earth’s science and technology or Panthera’s magic.
If the energy of the Great Devil Castle’s core is sufficient, flying in the sky is basic, and the Great Devil Castle itself is self-sufficient.
Because of the barrier, it is impossible to go outside the planet, but I understand that navigation is possible in space.
At first, I didn’t understand why the Archdemon Castle contained such incredible technological power that even the resident demons didn’t know about, but that was because Helena was directly involved in creating it.
This city called Panteran seemed to have a similar function to the Great Devil Castle, and Helena seemed to be the owner of the city just like the Great Devils.
What this means is that Helena can control everything in this city.
As the owner of the Great Devil Castle, it would not have been difficult for her to send such a light message to me in the city.
『If you don’t know anything about coordinates, I’ll take care of it.』
“Coordinates… Wait a moment.”
And of course I don’t know coordinates.
However, archmages like Verna and Liliana seem to know.
I remember that the spatial movement magic they use also requires something called coordinates.
I sent a raid message to Liliana and Verna and asked them quickly.
「Liliana: These are spatial movement coordinates… It’s not difficult to tell you, but…」
「Verna: I understand that the magic engineering technology used by demons is different from the magic we use… Would it be okay if I tell you the spatial movement coordinates we use?」
The story is that Helena may not understand the coordinates used by wizards.
「Suni: Master. In that case, wouldn’t it be okay if you told me the coordinates of the planet used in Zephiria? 」
Surely…
I received the location of the appropriate space movement location from Suni and conveyed it to Helena.
The coordinate location was near the area where Celestia and I were stationed.
But is it okay?
If this city moves in space near the Great Devil Castle where I and Celestia are stationed, the arrows of suspicion will naturally turn towards us.
I know that one day it will be discovered that it was we who let Helena escape.
Even so, it is to our advantage to be caught as late as possible.
『… You don’t have to worry about that. Although some time has passed, I don’t think Zephyria’s fundamental technology has changed much since the time I lived in it. It won’t be difficult to hide the city.』
Helena said that as if she knew how I felt.
『Oh, and I will show you the direction from which the disruptor is coming.』
The interrupter Helena is talking about is Bethmore.
A translucent arrow appears before my eyes and points in a certain direction.
It seems like they used the city’s functions to float something like a hologram.
I followed that arrow and set foot on the huge wall surrounding the city.
I saw security robots patrolling on the wall, but they didn’t guard me, perhaps because Helena was controlling them.
I decided to prepare for battle.
The pitch-black magical power that bloomed from my body surrounded my body, swelled, and then hardened.
The shape of a black giant about 4 meters tall was created.
‘It looks so human…’
The black giant was created without Sunni’s assistance, so it looks like an enlarged version of my body.
Originally, Chaos put armor on the base of this giant.
But chaos is not here.
If things continue like this, there seems to be a bit of a problem.
I decided to wear a little camouflage.
The soft curves of the body were trimmed into an angular shape to give it a more artificial feel.
The giant changed into a somewhat clunky yet artificial robot-like appearance.
At this rate, I would think it is a humanoid weapon called reinforced armor in Zephyria.
After putting on that poor camouflage and waiting for a while, I saw a small shuttle approaching quickly from a distance in the northeastern sky.
I can feel an unusual magical power within it.
But…
“Two… Guys? One must be Bassmore… Who is the other guy?”
It seemed like there was one more unexpected, uninvited guest.
Even so, it is not a big variable.
There are no setbacks in the plan.
I felt the need to stop the shuttle first.
As the opponent is the opponent…
Telekinesis using thoughts alone is not enough.
The guys on the shuttle, like the pursuers I dealt with before, weren’t guys I could deal with my still clumsy telekinesis.
I created a large magic spear in the right hand of the black robot giant.
And the location of the shuttle’s engine was found.
The engine contained a lot of energy as it was a power source, and it was not difficult to find its location.
I threw the magic spear I was holding towards the identified location of the engine.
-Boom!
The magic spear disappeared from the giant’s hand with the sound of a shell exploding… Before I knew it, it had pierced the outer armor of the shuttle and was stuck in the engine.
The shuttle, whose engine was destroyed, seemed to fall to the ground, emitting smoke…
-Kwaang!!
It exploded before it hit the ground.
Of course, there was no way the mission would end like this,
In the explosion of the shuttle, two seals popped out.
The magical energy that welled up from the giant’s body created a black greatsword that resembled a long, thick iron plate.
And the black giant jumped straight from the top of the wall and launched himself at those who were recovering from the shuttle’s explosion.

While Commander Karaz Besmore was leading the search for the escapees, he received reports that there was a problem with Helena’s seal on the Pantheran.
After hearing the news, Basmore hurriedly took a shuttle and headed to Pantheran. For some reason, Gregory also rode on the shuttle.
“There’s something wrong with the Helena seal? Isn’t it manned?”
Gregory’s suspicions were valid.
We were in a situation where we were chasing fugitives.
But at a clever moment, something happened.
It’s not like Basmore didn’t think like Gregory.
Even so, I couldn’t ignore it.
If you miss the escapees, your term in Karaz will only extend,
What if there is a problem with Helena’s seal?
It won’t end like that.
Maybe he will end up as a Karaz inmate.
“Gregory, are you asking because you don’t know that? If you were that suspicious, you should have stayed.”
“Well… I guess it takes longer this way.”
As they were traveling on the shuttle, they felt an eerie feeling when they saw the Pantheran in front of them.
And at the same time.
-Boom!
The shuttle shook violently with a loud noise.
『… The engine has suffered irreparable damage. Passengers must escape within 5 seconds.』
Shuttle management An explosion occurred along with a warning from artificial intelligence.
It was a fairly powerful explosion, but there was no significant damage to Besmore and Gregory.
They are senior combat officers.
It would be a shame to be injured as a result of the explosion of a small shuttle.
After escaping from the shuttle’s explosion, Basmore and Gregory saw something about 4 meters tall, in the shape of a black human being, coming quickly towards them.
“Reinforced armor? Who are you?! Rebellion? Or the Helena Liberation Front?!”
“…”
Despite Besmore’s interrogation, there was no answer from the person in the black reinforced armor.
“Besmore, communication with Karaz has been cut off. I think he’s done something. Don’t let down your guard.”
“I know.”
Beth More took out her favorite bottle from her space. It was a large ax with a red tinge. When he held his favorite bottle in his hands for the first time in a long time, his confidence grew.
“You arrogant bastard. I don’t know what kind of confidence you have to fearlessly attack a high-ranking military combat officer. Are you trusting in that poor reinforced armor? Then I’ll tell you how big of a mistake you made!”
Bassmore, clutching a red ax, rushed towards the black reinforced armor.
