The flagship of the Duchy's army.

　The private quarters of Her Royal Highness.

　Next to Hertrauda was the figure of Hertrude.

'Sister, do not invoke the guardian gods of the earth. The heavens and the sea--the guardian gods of both will be sufficient to serve our purpose.''

Lauda I've put you in a difficult role. If only I had used this magic flute.

　Hertrauda shook his head.

'It was a role for one of us to carry. Because as soon as your sister failed, it was a given that I would be heading to the kingdom next.''

　Hertrude clutches the magic flute and then sheds tears.

　If the true power of the magic flute is demonstrated - what is required in exchange is the user's life.

　In exchange, the user can use the super size called a guardian god.

''Lauda, I no longer understand.

　Hertrude's words, Hertruda has no clear answer.

　Because it doesn't make sense anymore.

'Even if Queen Milene's words are true, we cannot stop. We will take the floating stone that sinks the kingdom and floats the continent - and the duchy will have a new earth. It is necessary for the Duchy to become a true superpower.

　The reason why the duchy sinks the kingdom is because they want the floating stone that the kingdom has - the floating stone that floats the land of the kingdom.

　They want to bring back that floating stone and expand their territory.

　A duchy that couldn't win by the righteous method needed to use this kind of forceful method to become a great power.

''Are we right?''

'I can't judge. When it's all over, I'll have to leave you in charge of your sister.

　The sisters' parents died in an accident.

　Some of them are royalty, but only two of them have been given oral traditions and education as heirs.

　One of them had to survive and lead the country.

''........Sister, how did you spend your time in the kingdom?''

　There was not much time left for Hertrude to talk to her sister.

　So she wanted to have as pleasant a conversation as possible.

'I was at a place called the Academy. You went there as an exchange student. It was even worse than I imagined.

　The sight of the girls taking their slaves around and looking down on the boys was shocking, though Hertrude knew it was a shock.

'That outgoing knight was also bowing his pecking head to the women.

'The outlaw knight who defeated Bandel?　How did the kingdom come to be that way?　I'm told that when the Duchy was a grand duke, it was no different from us.

Yeah. It's a strange country. They even send out airships for girls to have adventures. The island where I found that magic-armed right-hand man was on the island of the elves.

　Seeing Lauda's eyes shine, Hertrude tells him about his adventures.

　The grand duke family is also originally from a family of adventurers.

　They grew up being told these stories from an early age.

　When Hertoloude finished speaking, Lauda was smiling.

''Your sister had adventures, didn't she? I am jealous. I have no more time to spare.'

"Lauder.

　Hertrude pities her sister, but the time is coming.

　A knight comes to report.

'Your Highness Princess Heltrauda!　We have confirmation that the Royal Army is approaching!

　Lauda's expression changed from a child's to a cold one.

''I'll be right there. ........Sister, if I fall down, I'll ask you to take care of the rest.

　We're only a few steps away from King's Landing - the center of the continent.

　Once we reach there, everything will be over.

　Hertrude smiled at her sister, but tears were streaming down her face.

''Leave it to me. Also, I'll be by your side.''

You're very encouraging, sister.

◇

　I had Alogantz sitting on the deck.

　In the cockpit, I whistled with strength at the sight in front of me.

'What's that size?'

　Directly underneath the super-sized monster was a fleet of duchy troops that looked like they were being protected.

　They were slowly accompanying the monster as it headed towards the royal capital.

''Target, we're within range.''

　The ridiculously large monster is a multi-eyed, multi-armed figure covered in clouds. Several large eyes turn towards the Kingdom Army.

　It is about to charge into the Principality's army with the Kingdom's airship, which follows behind Paltner.

　The supersize reaches out to us with one of its hands.

Target, they're closing in!

Smash them!

　In line with my words, Luxion, who has become a shell of himself, mutters, 'Got it. There is no usual hateful talk, only the minimum amount of conversation necessary.

''I'm firing a missile.''

　A single missile was launched from Pertner's missile launcher.

　It hits the super-sized hand straight away, causing a huge explosion that blows the big hand away.

　The large hand, which seemed to be gripping even Pertner, was blown away and turned into black smoke.

'Let's keep shooting!'

Open fire.

　Partner's cannons spew fire, causing a huge explosion when they hit the super-size. Missile after missile was fired, blowing its arms off.

　As the bow of the ship changed direction, Partner accelerated.

Enemy fleet confirms change in formation.

Slow!

　The boastful Rathbones have been blown off their arms and they must have started preparing to intercept us in a hurry.

　The communication situation is bad over there, and I'm wondering if it's the same over there, or if it's a mothballed one.

　Following close behind Pertner are the airships that our family and friends are boarding.

　It's these guys' airships that are currently the most capable.

　On the deck, I stood Aroganz up and held my rifle at the ready.

　They shoot down the monsters flying around the Principality's fleet. Thousands and tens of thousands of monsters - that were to be dealt with by none other than Partner.

　Paltner was busy attacking the super-sized ones.

　The only way to do that is to shoot at them in fleet battles and leave it to the friendly ships to kill the monsters.

　As they got closer and closer to the enemy, the bombardment began.

　The monsters were shot through and turned into black smoke.

　Shells were fired one after another at Paltner, but even if they collided and bounced off, they didn't do much damage.

　The barrier deployed to protect the airship plays everything off.

　Most airships have cannons lined up on the sides of their hulls, and the enemy is showing us their belly.

'Devour them.'

　As Paltner comes within an eyeshot of the Principality's forces, an allied ship just behind him fires a series of bow-mounted cannons.

　A magical barrier is deployed around the Duchy's ship, but it is shot through and the airship sinks.

It's the latest model. Don't think you can protect it with that much!

　Allied ships sank and armor popped up one by one.

　A single airship emerges, flanking Paltner's path, blocking his path.

　It fires a line of cannons at once, but Paltner blocks them all.

'You can't get out of it like that. Besides, I'm good at hitting bodies.

　Partner's bow rammed into the side of the airship, snapping it into a crook.

　Further forward, the airship cut off back and forth and fell away.

'If you're in the pocket, it's ours.

　He had already entered right underneath the super-sized.

　In this state, it wouldn't even be able to take the super-sized attack--it should!

　One after another, the Kingdom's airships rushed in, and the two armies entered into a heated, mixed battle as the armor was launched.

''Phase one is clear.''

　Several missiles were fired from Partner, and when they hit the supersize, they were blown away by the explosion and turned into black smoke.

　The black smoke was absorbed by the swirling clouds, which grew even darker and larger.

　The bright sky that had been bright in the early morning assault was covered in a thick black cloud.

　Out of such black clouds, a supersized one appears again, as if revived.

　All of the multi-lidded eyes were looking at Paltner.

''It's going to revive soon. Let's keep attacking it and block its movements.''

Enemy aircraft approaching.

　The Duchy's armor lands on the deck of Paltner and comes towards Aroganz.

'We've found it, outlaw knight!

'Outliers?　Don't talk like you're the only one who hasn't gone astray!

　You're here to kill me, and I'm going to kill you, so this means we're both badgers.

　I pointed my rifle at him and pulled the trigger, and he was shot in the abdomen and rolled down the deck.

　When I looked up, airships and armor were surrounding Paltner.

　He pointed his rifle at the airship directly above him and pulled the trigger, hitting the engine section and spewing fire. It fell on Paltner, but the barrier protected it and didn't hurt Paltner in the slightest.

　A voice mixed with noise can be heard.

'Destroy it with your armor!'
"Take him out and I'll make it big!
'I got it!'

　He held the axe in his left hand and slashed at the approaching armor.

　It gouges my right shoulder to my abdomen, and I know immediately that the pilot won't make it.

　Luxion points it out to me.

'Reaction is delayed.'

'Yes!'

　The other one swung its axe down on its head and let go of the axe, unable to pull it out even though the blade reached its torso.

　The third one shot out with a rifle bullet and held the new weapon in its left hand.

''--Please.''

　I looked at Weiss once, and then I looked up at the sky and took off.

◇

　Weiss' bridge.

　The kingdom's forces are fighting fiercely as they assault the duchy's forces and bring them into a mixed battle.

　Watching them, Angier hugs and supports a shivering Libya.

'Libya, take a break,'

　Tears were spilling from Livia's eyes as she shook her head. She held her head in her hands and then her breathing was ragged.

'It's painful. Why is everyone fighting?　It's so painful... why?

　Angel struggles with the answer.

''I wonder why.''

　He knew the answer.

　Angel had learned the answer, but when he saw it in person, he didn't know the answer.

　Livia presses her chest, and then Marie walks in.

'Hey!　We've got enemies gathering around this ship, too!

　Angel blackmailed Marie, who was dressed as a saint.

'Be quiet!'

Yes!

We've got convoys all around us. Besides, this ship is not going to go down easily.

　Claire, who was floating around, nodded and showed him.

''The biggest threat is the monster that's right above us, the one that's called the super-sized. We can't drop this ship on any other airship. More importantly, are the two of you ready to go?　And Marie, too.

　Marie seems unhappy when she's treated like a bonus, but she keeps quiet, as if she's afraid of Angier.

　Angel supports Libya and then speaks softly to her, "Libya, let's get this over with.

'Libya, let's get this fight over with. Can we do that?

　Livia nodded as she cried and crossed her arms in front of her chest.

　When she was dressed as if she were praying, Angier mimicked her appearance.

(What?)　My heart is in pain. (And - sad and tearful)

　I can hear the voices around me.

''Help!　I don't want to die!
Mom, help me!
That's why I didn't want to go to war.

　Feeling the vanishing life, Angier begins to feel the pain in his chest as well.

(Have you sensed this all along?)

　Claire's voice comes out.

'Can you say the ship resonates?　You are reacting to Olivia's abilities. It's a strange performance. I'm sure there was no such feature in the manual.'

　Marie opens her mouth wide and makes a noise.

'No!　There's a big monster in front of me!

　A monster was coming at them with a large mouth open.

　When Cleare muttered, ''Hmph,'' the monster was blown away by Weiss's main gun, which was shot out of the air.

''Marie, you should exert your strength as well. It seems that the two of you alone are not enough.''

'What?　What do you want me to do?

"Please just copy them both.

　Weiss trembles as Marie hurriedly begins to pray in imitation of the two of them.

　It's as if he's trying to show his true intentions - he's trying to show his true intentions.

　Angier looks up at the ceiling and spreads his arms out.

(....) A warm light floods in. (Besides, it's calming.)

　The scene that came to mind was a summer vacation when the three of us were talking on our way home from a hot spring.

　I wish those days could go on forever, that's what I thought.

◇

　As I slashed down on the approaching monster, I looked back.

　The armor around me, and the airship, stops moving.

　The fighting stops, and then the monsters are blown away.

　A warm light enveloped the battlefield, and that light was emitted from the Weiss.

''--This is the final weapon?''

　As the monsters disappear with the light, the super-sized monster above the sky also closes its eyes and crosses its arms as if to protect itself.

　However, the light causes its huge body to disappear in a black smoke.

''So this is the end.''

　Much of the armor had dropped the weapons they held in their hands.

　The communication situation was improving, and even the thick clouds that covered the sky were drowned out, revealing a blue sky.

'Love is awesome!　--Hey!

　I tried to smile and suddenly my battle cry was gone.

　What I felt was fear. It was as if the will to fight was forcibly taken away from me.

　I hear voices.

(Don't fight anymore.) I - I don't want to see this fight. (Please, stop fighting!)

　It's the voice of Libya.

'Well, this is the real voice of Libya--'

　Libya's voice reaches people well.

　It doesn't have to be words of wisdom that stir people's hearts, but if Libya says them, they'll get to the heart of people.

　The voice came from Weiss - Libya's voice.

(Let's stop now.) If we don't do this, a lot of people will be killed. (Please stop the fight.)

　I wouldn't have a hard time if the fight ended with those words.

　I don't.......but the feeling of wanting the fight to really be over enters my mind.

　The shell of Luxion mutters.

''Mental attack confirmed.''

　You're right. What a powerful attack this guy was.

　Libya's abilities, enhanced by Weiss' abilities, were ridiculously vicious.

　The knights of the duchy, who had a grudge against the kingdom, put down their weapons and listened to Libya's voice.

　''Don't be silly!　And I can't get this over with!　........Such feelings melted before Libya's sad heart.

　And the scene I saw was - a memory of a long-forgotten past life.

　I mutter as I look up at the super-sized figure disappearing with an eerie voice.

''........what a terrible attack.''

　I can't let them use this power........

◇

　From the Duchy's flagship, Hertrauda watched the scene.

　Tears streamed down her face.

'....Why do you hurt your heart for us? 'Stop it. You must be our enemies. Don't be sad!

　The pain in Livia's heart flowed in, and her chest was painful.

　The others around her were either stunned or sat there with tears in their eyes.

　The will to fight was being taken away.

''Like this. You want us to forget our resentment for this. For this.''

　It's frustrating.

　But my vengeance is being taken away.

　Gradually, I don't know if we're right.

　Hertrude embraces Hertrauda.

'Lauda, let's get this over with. The guardian god of the sky has disappeared from sight.'

　Hertrauda shook his head.

'No. I hate it. I don't know what I'll lose my life for if it ends like this. I--I have to fight!'

　Clutching his magic flute, Hertrauda wanted to fight, but his heart hated it.

　He can't hate the person he should hate.

　I can't get up.

''--It's not fair. The kingdoms that do this are still the worst. It's disgusting that you don't allow them to hate you or resent you. It deprives me of the will to fight. Then what have I risked my life for?

　Hertoloude hugged Heltrauda, who was crying, and Heltraude was crying.

''I'm sorry. I'm sorry for making you take my place--I'm so sorry.

　The guardian god of the sky disappears.

　The magic flute that Hertrauda was holding has been broken into pieces.

''........Lie. I can't believe that even the guardian god of the sea has been defeated.''

　Heltrauda gradually loses his vitality and becomes distantly conscious in his sister's arms.

'Lauda!'

Sis you're kind of scary and yet warm.

　It was as if Libya's ability to slowly make all the fear disappear and envelop her in something warm.

　Deprived of the desire to fight, Lauda's face became calm.

''I'm sorry, sister. ........for leaving you alone.

　Lauda closed his eyes.

　She could hear Hertrude's sad cries, but they gradually faded away.

◇

　It was Bandel who stood by Hertrude's side.

　Hertrude, who was crying, gradually began to laugh.

'Princess,'

"Bandel. I'm crazy. I'm supposed to be sad, but I'm so warm and happy. Lauda's dead and you won't even let me grieve.

　Bandel puts a hand on his shoulder as Hertrude mutters that people in the kingdom really are terrible.

''Leave it to me. This Bandel will take care of everything.

Bandel?

　Perhaps it was the effect of the magic arm's right arm, but the mental attack didn't work on Bandel.

''Come on, please give your orders while you still have the will to fight.

　Hertrude was troubled. Her face was the same as it had been when she was a child, and she missed it.

'Princess!'

Let's go, Vandell. Show your country that you are a principality.

　Nodding broadly, Bandel walked away from the scene in a dignified manner.

　When he stepped outside, he coughed, holding his mouth.

　His palms are red with blood.

'How did you hold on so far?'

　He looked at his right arm, grateful for his body.

''It's a miserable right arm. But now I can fight that foreign knight. --The only thing I have to do is to sink that ship in the kingdom.

　A white ship in the distance.

　Thinking that he couldn't leave such a thing unattended, Bandel put his strength into his right arm. It became bloated, and when its entire body was covered, it took on the form of armor.

''--Well, let's get started.''

　Bandel, who was flying away, charged in a straight line towards the white ship - Weiss.

◇

　I was in a state of abandonment.

　It's like, I shouldn't be asleep, but I am sleepy.

　Isn't it?

　Anyway, it's getting ridiculous to fight.

Psychic contamination confirmed with the master.

　I can hear the shell of Luxion, but I hate everything about it. Now that I think about it, why am I fighting?

　There's no need for me to do this.

　To begin with, it's all Marie who is to blame.

　No one will be angry at me for abandoning him like that.

　No one - or maybe only my parents from a previous life that I can't see anymore - might be angry. You're an older brother, you should take care of your sister,

　But I'm not that kind of character, and....

Enemy aircraft approaching. Enemy aircraft approaching, en route to Weiss.

　When I looked at it, I saw a black, stinging armor that looked like a fake Aroganz was about to charge at Weiss.

　I've seen that armor somewhere before, too.

　I still can't remember where it was.

'Hmm?　Weiss?

　Immediately afterwards, the black armor that collided with it ripped a hole in Weiss' hull, causing an explosion.

''Not good!''

　I hurriedly grabbed the control stick and moved the arrogants and my consciousness became clearer.

'What?'　It's like I was dreaming about it.

Mental attack. Weiss has unleashed a psychic attack on friend and foe alike.

The power of Libya. I don't want to taste it again.

　The sensation of being wrapped up in that warm something was both euphoric and terrifying at the same time.

　The airships and armor around us were still stuck in place.

''But that plane--''

It was the plane that took Hertrude and the magic flute from the palace.

'You're the old Black Knight!

　He sped up the allogants at once, saying that it was dangerous to continue like this.

◇

　The other side of the continent.

　Luxion, who confirmed the vanishing super-sized monster, simultaneously judges the power involved as dangerous.

I'm not sure if this is Olivia's power. It's true that it's called the ultimate weapon.''

　Smoke was coming from the Luxion's hull.

'The communication situation is improving. We'll be able to restore the link to the child's transmitter in a few minutes.''

　Once the hull is submerged in the seawater, you can hear the sound of water evaporating from the heat it had.

　The surrounding area is covered in white smoke and Luxion's hull looks like it is surrounded by fog.

''I hope everything is okay.''

　Worst of all, he even hoped that even Rion would be alive.

　While cooling the hull of the ship, Luxion, who was thinking about the plans after this - moves slowly.

◇

　Slashing the beautiful white hull of the ship with the great sword he was holding, Bandel stepped into the ship.

''What?''

　If you look, a legless armoured figure charges at you with a weapon.

　I strike it with my greatsword, blow it away, and grab it with my left arm.

'No people on it?　You're very mysterious.

　Crush and then proceed to break the ship.

"This ship should never have existed. The kingdom is still evil. Evil yes, evil!
As his right arm swells up, several eyes widen and magic is released from it.

　It blows up from the inside, and Weiss takes a lot of damage.

　Gradually the altitude drops, and fire begins to blow from everywhere.

'Yes. If we don't defeat them the kingdom is evil.''

　Vandel destroyed it and proceeded to reach the bridge.

　There were three girls there.

'A girl?　'Right. You guys did that.'

　In front of the three frightened men, Bandel raised his great sword.

　It was the brown-haired girl who stepped forward.

''Wait. Let's stop now. This kind of fight has to end!''

Not yet!

　Bandel spits out blood and blurts out his feelings to the three of them.

'It's not over. As long as there is a duchy, we will take the fight to the kingdom. Considering what you guys have done, it's only natural!''

　The other woman opened her mouth.

'You've got to be kidding me. Are you saying you and your principality didn't do anything about it?

　You can tell from the way he talks that he knows the duchy's past.

　However, Bandel doesn't retreat.

'So what about it. Do you guys know how it feels to have had to watch your family die in front of you!''

　As he tried to swing the great sword down, Bandel was attacked in the back. A wire was applied and he was forcibly pulled off the bridge.

　When he turns around, he sees a prominent figure in five different colors of armor.

'That's it!'

　A white, cloaked armor comes toward you with a sword.

　He forced himself to tear the wire off and catch it with his great sword.

　Bandel laughed inside the armor.

'That's not a bad arm. But don't think that's enough to stop me!''

　As it bounced off, this time the green armor would fire its rifle at him.

　Not avoiding that attack, Bandel knew that the bullets would bounce off the armor.

''Do you want to play this?''

　I could see in my hand that my opponent was getting impatient.

　Looking around, the Spear was floating around Bandel.

　As they all attacked at once, they stabbed into a gap in the armor - the joint.

''How's that!　You can't escape my spear--

"Hmph!

　As Bandel puts in a lot of force, the spear breaks off from the impaled area and becomes useless.

''This oh!''

I won't let you!

　The red and blue armor attacked Bandel as if to pin him down, but one of the planes popped him with its greatsword and the other popped him with its tail.

　Near Weiss, who had begun to sink, Bandel laughed at the five planes as they began to sink.

'What's up, lads!　You think that's enough to take out this bandel!'

　The man in the white armor was surprised.

'Bandel?　The Black Knight.

'Yes. I'm a former Black Knight now. Still, I'll bleed you guys out in an instant, at least.

　As I accelerated and swung my great sword down to cut off both sides of the white armor, the red armor collided with my body and my sword muscles were disrupted.

　The blue armor comes forward and swings its sword.

''That sword muscle. You're a swordsman!　No, it's more than that, it's poorly written.

"Ooh!

　Bandel laughed as he was surrounded by the blue armor, protecting the onslaught of the blue armor with his great sword.

''That's right. Get more serious!　I want this bandel--someone stronger than that against the Black Knight!

　His eyes bleed, and his mind is slowly going crazy.

　The five machines were outnumbered by the rampaging Bandel.

　Bandel's armor - his magical armor swelled up and eyes appeared all over his body. The five planes seemed to be shying away from the disastrous appearance.

''Are you frightened, you cowards!　Then die!

　As he swung his great sword while laughing, there was an armor that pushed such a bandel away.

''--Na!''

　I was surprised by the shock of the situation, and was delighted to learn its identity.

　It's a good idea to be able to have a good time with them.

'I've been waiting for you, Gaijin Knight!

　And there was Aroganz.

'You've given me a funny name. If I'm an outsider, you're probably even more trash than that.'

　Blood was flowing from the corner of Bandel's mouth as he rejoiced.

◇

　As I look at the disastrous armor in front of me, I don't know what it is.

　It feels like a living thing, or a machine.

　The eyes on the surface of the armor are scurrying around and it's creepy.

'I've been waiting for the day I'd fight you.

Thank you for the unwelcome confession. I didn't want to see you again. By the way, that's some weird armor.

　A black knight's voice comes out, laughing with a kutkutsu.

'I knew I had to thank you,'

　From that reaction, I immediately thought of that right arm.

''No way--''

'Yes!　Now there is no difference in armor performance between you and me. Let's start a fight where pure skill is what matters!

　He avoided the black knight who had hit his body, but he quickly came around behind us.

　It's a shell.

Enemy approaching from the rear.

You're slow to react too, aren't you!

　As he defends himself with his rifle, he is cut off by a large sword.

　He quickly throws the rifle away and holds the new weapon in both hands.

　The black knight's new armor, which moves quite smoothly, doesn't feel a performance difference between him and Aroganz.

　Once this happens, it will be a question of pure skill difference.

　If that happens, I won't be able to stand up to them.

''You're persistent, old man!

"You will not die until I take your head!

　What the hell did I ever do to you?

　As I soar high in the sky with the Allogants, the Black Knight follows me. I really don't feel a difference in performance. Not only that--.

''Drop!

　Magic is released from the eyes on the black knight's armor. The fireballs are coming at me with great speed and in dozens of numbers.

　I try to avoid them, but they are tracking me.

'You're a phony!'

　The Allogants speed up and try to get away, but more fireballs are added to the mix.

'Get the drones out!'

"Deploying drones.

　As the drones were ejected from the container, they began to attack.

　There were machine guns attached to the round drones, and they were attacking the fireballs.

　However, they were able to shoot them down - but at the same time the drones were also being consumed and shot down by the fireball.

　Some of the drones were slashed by the great sword the Black Knight was holding.

'Bastard!

'You're the only one - no, no. It's something else that needs to be defeated.

　Suddenly, his movements became strange, and he turned his gaze to Weiss, who was directly below him.

'Hey, don't be silly!

Yes. Yeah, we have to sink that ship.

　Every eye in the Black Knight's body was about to unleash a fireball at once.

　In a great hurry, they sent the Aroganz plummeting down, floating in front of the destroyed bridge of the Weiss. Behind them, he could see Livia and Angier.

　In addition, I can see Marie's figure as well. It seems that even if they tried to escape from the bridge, they couldn't escape due to the lack of passage.

All shields are open!

Deploying shield.

　They used it as a shield to protect the three of them from the fireballs that were coming at them one after another.

　When the falling fireball hit Weiss, a large explosion occurred. Before they knew it, the five-man team had arrived and were protecting Libya and the others.

　As Weiss, engulfed in flames, began to sink in earnest, fighting began to resume around them.

'We were just about to end it.

　As I was catching the flames that kept shooting, I heard the Black Knight's voice.

''I will not accept such an end. This battle will not end until one of us is defeated!　I won't let it end!

　I give the masked knight instructions.

'Hey, pervert knight!'

"I told you I'm a masked knight!

I don't care. Take the three of you and get out of here. I'll hold them off.

Okay.

　They seemed to want to say something, but they thought they couldn't handle it themselves, so they retreated.

　........that's fine.

'I'll deal with the old bastard.

　The Black Knight raised his greatsword as he charged at Aroganz.

　That's when the lake rises and a mountain emerges from it.

　The lake rises and a mountain emerges from it.

''--No way.''

　I broke out in a cold sweat at the sight of that mountain of an enemy that looked like a mountain.

I have confirmed the appearance of a super-sized enemy. It's a different type from what we've seen so far.''

　He hears Luxion's voice in a shell, and the moment he is distracted, he is cut down by the Black Knight and falls to the ground.

◇

　Hertrude, holding the magic flute, looked at Lauda, who was lying on the floor.

　She apologizes to her precious sister.

''I'm sorry. I'm sorry for being a bad sister how did this happen?''

　One of the heavyweights approached the crying Hertrude.

　He was wounded and bleeding from his forehead.

'You little b*tc*es. It's pathetic to fail!

　There was no respect for royalty there, he was just a foul-mouthed, abusive man. He was a nobleman who held important positions in the duchy.

　As he tried to kick Lauda, Hertrude was kicked for defending him as quickly as possible.

''Stop!　Lauda did a great job!

'So what!　Hard work is meaningless, you know. Get results, get results!　You and your son are useless. Your father and mother were both against the war. So they killed them and used you guys for good.

　The heavyweight looked desperate at the situation.

'It's over. It's all over. If they do this much, the kingdom will attack the duchy on its face. I thought we could win with that monster. I didn't expect the kingdom to be powerless!

　Hertrude was holding Lauda's hand, which had stopped moving.

'What in the world are you talking about?

'You still don't get it, do you?　You're both dumb as a father and son. You've been used by us.

　The accident of his parents and the words of the man in front of him created hatred within Hertrude.

　The nobleman in front of him looks at Hertrude and laughs.

''No, not yet. If I deliver your head to the kingdom, only I will be spared. I will be the hero who stopped the folly!

　The man points his gun at me, but as he does so, the airship rocks.

　Rolling into Hertrude's hand was his own magic flute.

''d*mn it!''

　As soon as the nobles rebuilt their positions and pointed their muzzle at him, Hertrude picked up his magic flute and blew it with all his strength.

(Everyone--just disappear and be gone!)

　Then a monster appeared around them, emitting black smoke.

　They pounced on the nobles and bit them.

'No, stop!　Help!

　The crying nobleman is eaten to death by the monsters.

　Slowly, Hertrude gets up and heads to a place where she can see outside with her magic flute.

　The accidental deaths of her parents, the words and actions of the nobleman...she didn't know what on earth they had risked their lives for.

　Out on the deck, Hertrude had a stagnant look in her eyes.

　Outside, the battle had resumed and Weiss was being destroyed by Bandel.

　A tearful Hertrude blew her magic whistle.

　A suspicious tone echoed around them.

(Enough. I don't care what happens - but let them all die.)

　The demon flute calls out to the guardian god of the earth.

　Originally, it was the monster that appeared as the last boss in this maiden's world.

　After letting go of the flute, Hertrude starts laughing like a madman.

''Everyone should just disappear!

　--The guardian god of the earth responds to that crazy command.

◇

　Leon's father, Balcus, was giving orders from the bridge.

'There's that stupid big one again!　What the hell is going on here?

　I thought I had charged in, but this time I suddenly lost consciousness.

　The super-sized monster in the sky disappeared, but now a monster as big as a mountain moving on the lake appeared.

　I can't keep up with the situation.

　Nix, who was on the bridge, pointed out the window.

'Dad, the monster is out again.

Give me your armor. I'll get it.

'No, my dad has to give you instructions!　I'll be--

'Urse!　Look, there's an order to things, you know. You just have to stay here.

　Nix must not be allowed to die.

　Thinking this, Balcus put his hand on Nix's head and stroked his head roughly.

'If anything happens to me, you brothers should get along. If Rion survives, defend your territory, even if you have to scrape it off. I'm sure he's capable, but he's an idiot. You're going to have to make sure he's well taken care of.

I can't take care of him. I can't take care of him!　In the first place, it would be nice if my dad stayed behind!

'Don't let the kid die before I do!　You guys, take care of Nix.

　With that, it was Barkas who left the bridge.

◇

　The last boss will still appear, the black knight will be absurdly strong, and I don't know how in the world this happened.

''The only thing left to do is you, outer knight!

　Old Black Knight chasing me everywhere.

　I'm not happy.

　I wish there were prettier girls chasing me.

'Tsk!'

　The axe he was holding was torn to shreds as he caught the Black Knight's great sword.

''Missile!　All of them!

"One shot.

　The container opened and a small missile struck the Black Knight. The black knight distances himself from me and avoids all of them.

　In addition to the uncomfortable movements, the eyes in his body intercept the missiles.

　The only weapon I have on hand is an axe.

　It's almost all used up.

　I tried to catch it and send a shockwave into it, but it wouldn't catch me in the first place.

　If we fight properly, I will lose.

'This is what it's like to have a cheat. I'm disgusted with myself.

　Just when you think you've driven them into a corner, they drive you into a corner, and you think you've run out of ideas - and then a super-sized monster releases its thorns from the mountain.

　As it released its spines, it shot through the airships that were around it one after another.

　Regardless of the kingdom or duchy, it began to attack.

''--Ha?''

　Even the black knight, as expected, seemed to be flustered by this.

''Princess!''

　I can only assume that there was something going on.

　The super-sized monster was rampaging, regardless of whether it was friend or foe.

''Luxion, attack with Paltner!

Yes, sir.

　Paltner launched an attack on the super-sized ship, but it was also under concentrated fire from the surrounding duchy forces.

''--You guys, you'll have someone to take out first before you get a shot at my ship!

　He shouted and held his axe at the same time, and caught the black knight's great sword that was swung down.

''I don't have time to deal with you anymore. Just die quickly!''

'No!　I'm not going to die here!

　I don't want to die in a war, ever.

　War should only be fought by the people you like.

"You have no pride in knighthood and no guts. You're really an outsider!

'So what. Don't put your pride and pride on me.

　Chivalry?

　I'm sorry, they say the chivalry of the kingdom is to protect the girls. That's why I can't take advantage of your aesthetics.

　Partner spits out all the remaining ammunition and blows up the supersize.

　At the same time.

Partner, we're running low on capacity.

Huh!

　Paltner, under concentrated fire, falls into the lake as the barrier disappears and burns up directly under shells and magic.

　I don't feel sorry for Luxion.

　And I had the Black Knight approaching me.

''This is the end...!

　He grabbed the control stick and tried to gasp to the end - and then.

　Luxion's voice becomes - normal.

'Purging the container, sir.'

You!

　As soon as he purged the container on his back, he turned towards the Black Knight and the arogants slowed as he avoided the attack.

　The Black Knight slashed through the container and was caught in the explosion.

　The container had an engine nozzle, so it was no surprise.

''Coming out of nowhere, what are you going to do about this situation?

　If the Black Knight attacks next, I won't be able to escape.

''No problem. Schwerdt, here I come.''

　Approaching from above was a shape-shifting Schwerdt.

'What was that?'

Schwert.

You're a different shape!

'Trivial. We'll do the docking.

　When Schwerdt comes to the back side of Aroganz, it merges with the part of the container that was directly connected to it.

''It's merged!''

'It's almost like a parts conversion. I have a large blade for you to use.

　Aroganz pulls out the hilt of the sword from the Schwerdt, revealing a large sword similar to the Black Knight's.

　The shape of the Schwerdt looks like an airplane or a shield, depending on how you look at it. The figure of Aroganz carrying such an object on his back.

''Can you fight with this?''

'No problem. Data analysis. Support program update completed.

　As the Black Knight jumped out of the exploding smoke of the container, he lowered his arogantz.

　It was difficult to control the aircraft as it accelerated faster than ever before.

''It's too fast though!

Get used to it. We are about to launch an attack.

　A laser-like light shot out from Schwerdt and struck the Black Knight.

''The laser bent!''

"Bite your tongue and shut up, please.

　.........What, a conversation that doesn't even consider this master as a master.

　I missed him earlier, but it's strangely irritating.

''But can we fight the Black Knight with this?

　I turned to the black knight and held my great sword.

''Kid--still such a hidden ball.''

The last one to win is the strongest. Don't complain, old man!
