Chapter 26 – Return
One.
───Kreurreureung.
The penetrating centipedes that found the enemy object quickly approached by crawling on the floor. The long body of the insect, over 10m long, was enough to arouse disgust just by its existence.
Dozens of pairs of legs, so numerous that it would make my eyes dizzy, dig into the soil, and reddish eyes that made it hard to believe that they were living creatures rattled after the Holy Trooper.
Seeing that, Netoru grabbed Karen’s control stick.
As she focused her consciousness as she refined her breathing, the five senses of the genitalia flooded naturally through the control stick in her hand.
The gunshots fired nearby, the vibrations created by the centipedes, and the touch of the soil as the holy cavalry trodden on the ground. Even the wind blowing somewhere and the warmth of the sunlight coming down on your head.
All of them are clearer than ever. Thanks to that, I knew it instinctively. That the matching rate of the coupling wavelength is one step higher than before.
Satisfied with that fact, Netoru sharpened his consciousness like a blade. Breathe evenly, and throw away all useless thoughts. The only thing to focus on at this moment is how to kill the enemy.
The holy cavalry could be said to be the second body and avatar created for knights to keep up with the times.
And interpreting it a little differently,
The holy cavalry was said to be a large biological weapon capable of reproducing what the knights had built in this world for thousands of years.
That’s why Holy Trooper pilots can fight bugs armed with guns and cannons.
Stories that would have been mere myths and fairy tales in ‘reality’ really existed here, so it was not impossible to embody the power of the old myths that had been built up.
Netoru strained the holy cavalry’s legs. He grabs his sword and sets his sights on the first person he will kill. The series of processes was as natural as the behavior of a knight ahead of battle.
It wasn’t because Netoru’s piloting skills were particularly outstanding.
The control arm of the genital disease was the connector of the genital disease through the medium of the female pilot, and the male pilot simply poured her ‘consciousness’ while holding her control rod in her hand, and it was over.
That’s why the holy cavalry was able to become the second body of the knights. There was no complicated control method, just fighting as the physical body did.
───!
Before long, Netoru was shot forward, leaving a huge crack in the floor he was trampling on. Then, he swung the sword he was holding horizontally.
In the path drawn, the centipede’s unique hard carapace and iron armor blocked the blade, but that was not a big problem. Netoru moved the holy cavalry sword as it was and slashed the enemy.
“… One at a time.”
The two-part centipede collapses powerlessly with a grotesque cry. As soon as his heavy body fell to the floor, spewing out blood, Netoru turned his attention to the next enemy.
Then I saw some of them curl up their tails like scorpions, revealing machine guns hidden inside. The mounded carapaces open, revealing a cold muzzle, which moves in search of its target.
However, the movement to find the target is slow.
Bullets are so fast that even knights who have reached the realm of superhumans cannot easily avoid them, but they are meaningless if they are not aimed properly.
Humans predict enemy movements,
The bug just shoots at what his eyes pursue.
Before the gun was pointed at himself, Netoru ran with the body of the dead centipede in his hand. And at the same time, fire began to shoot from the gun of the Centipede, which was moving in search of enemies.
───Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bullets fly, leaving eerie trails in the air. However, most of them just barely passed by, and even that was blocked by the corpse of the centipede that Netoru was holding.
In an instant, Netoru, who approached a group of centipads aiming his gun at him, swung his sword without hesitation. He first cut off his tail, which was standing upright for a muzzle, then crushed the head of his centipede with his foot.
Just like that, another animal’s breath was cut off, and Netoru moved tirelessly in search of the next enemy. Then, by the time the body of the centipede used as a shield is in tatters, he is replaced with another guy.
──Keiiik!
The battle was one-sided. Even if they aimed their guns at Netoru’s erratic movements, the centipads were slaughtered without being able to properly attack.
Since there was no fear in the bugs, there was no backing down, but that didn’t help much in changing the outcome of the fight. Rather, they had no fear, so they had no choice but to be defeated one-sidedly.
Because they have no fear, they do not question their fighting style. They were living beings, but their fighting style was a passive machine itself. The muzzle only pursued Netoru’s afterimage.
How many of them did you cut like that? Eventually, with the last one in front of his eyes, Netoru quietly raised the holy cavalry sword stained with bug blood.
“This is the end.”
2.
When the group of centipads who were escorting troops were wiped out, nothing stood in their way anymore. All that was left was the long-range bombardment Spiders. As I climbed the hill to catch them, the gunfire stopped before I knew it.
Apparently, he recognized the danger and started to run away.
Unlike other bugs, long-range bombardment spiders have a habit of running away when their safety is threatened.
It has to be. They had no defense ability.
As much as its specialized ability, it was vulnerable to melee combat. Even if the distance is close, you can’t even attack. If you can approach it with just words, you can take your breath away even if you are not a sexual cavalry.
Of course, he had to be able to deliver a proper blow to that large body. Perhaps, if it was a human weapon and a knight called a superman, it would be possible.
‘They’re still slow guys.’
Netoru checked the location of the long-range artillery spider. It continues to move, but at a slow pace. He can chase them without difficulty even if he doesn’t have to run.
So, Netoru moved the holy cavalry slowly without rushing. Anyway, Karen needed to catch her breath for a moment. Because intense battles are too much for female pilots.
Besides, from a strategic point of view, it was better to let them breathe for a while and give them some space rather than catching a long-range bombardment spider right now.
─Are you successful?
Did you check this movement? Just then, I got a call from Lien.
“Yes. All you have to do now is catch it.”
-You worked hard. But are you deliberately wasting your time?
“That way they will ask the bugs for help.”
─Whoops. Well done. Thanks to this, the barrage of bugs started to wane.
Rien laughed, which was rare. And she looks like she’s never seen her smile in a while. Is she as happy as she is?
She must have been in a very bad situation.
Long-range bombardment spiders call for help from nearby bugs when they sense danger. It was a fixed pattern, as if it were programmed, and it also confused the movements of the bugs they were attacking.
Of course, if you look at it differently, it was the same as the sound that bugs were coming this way, but it was not very threatening because of the distance.
No matter how buggy it is, you can’t run a distance of about 30 km in an instant. So just deal with the long-range bombardment spiders that signaled before they arrived.
It was when Karen’s holy cavalry, originally pure white, reached the top of the hill with the whole body painted red with the centipede’s blood.
Netoru was able to find it. The long-range bombardment Spiders diligently running away.
The sight of spiders crawling with gun barrels as large as their own bodies was ridiculous to watch from above. In addition, because of the hilly terrain, he was having a hard time climbing the slope.
After watching the scene for a while, Netoru spurred the ground and followed.
What followed was nothing to say a battle.
Long-range bombardment spider hunting was easy. It’s enough just to drive the sword into the back of the head of the fleeing spiders.
After annihilating a group alone like that,
Netoru stopped his genital bottle in an appropriate place, opened the cockpit, and began to rest.
The battle isn’t over yet. However, Netoru uncoupled the coupling and calmly watched the battle. It was because there was nothing good for him to continue fighting like this.
After all, winning or losing is completely tilted. The bugs that turned back in the middle of the fight after receiving a request for support from the long-range bombardment spider were being annihilated so helplessly.
Shells and gunshots rang out in the not-so-distant distance.
The location was also on top of a hill overlooking the field, so the battle situation was clearly visible.
As I watched it silently, Karen, who had crawled out of her cockpit along with Tohru, expressed her displeasure.
“… Why did you suddenly stop here? The battle isn’t over yet. Can’t you see they’re fighting over there?”
“Why? So you want to go and fight again?”
“Of course it should.”
Karen narrowed her brow and glared at her.
His unit members are fighting, but I can’t get enough of Tohru who is fooling around like this.
“Hmm.”
But at Karen’s answer, Netoru just laughed. It’s good to be nice to people, but shouldn’t you know how to save yourself to some extent?
“Karen. Can you really fight? It’s not really your body.”
“What are you talking about. I’m still fluffing like this…”
“Really?”
There, Netoru put her hand on Karen’s shoulder. It was at that time that Karen tilted her head for something.
“… What?”
Suddenly, her legs gave way and Karen’s body began to lean forward. Netoru naturally accepted her body. Karen’s body slumped like a doll in her arms, as if her whole body was not strong enough.
It has to be. The magical nervous system that Netoru forcibly activated had reached its limit.
Netoru whispered in her ear as she held her in her arms.
“You’re going to keep fighting like this? Karen, you’ve worked hard enough, now get some rest.”
“What, what… I, my body… Why so… ?”
“I told you. It’s not therapy, it’s doping.”
While Karen is embarrassed by her first physical condition,
Netoru patted her on the back as if praising her for her hard work.
Soon after, when the battle ended safely,
Karen and Netoru, who could no longer control the holy cavalry, returned to the unit with the help of the troops.
The mission, which was originally a light picnic, was finally over.
And when the battle is over,
Data was being transmitted to the network of bugs.
