■ Three minutes ago

Hours go back to the point when one of the Jonaldepaztries was crushed by Eldridge.

…………

Loss of own < Super Embrio >.

Now I still have the left-hand Yonalde Paztori, but if they crush that one, Setouchi dies without resuscitation.

Not least the enemy, Eldridge, pretty much packs the status difference with Emily by the depths of [Robbery King].

That's the biggest danger zone for Emily in automatic killing mode, too, unknown.

Eldridge is already an Absolute Eliminated (Out) Certified beyond the Hostile (Negative) Certification and must be eliminated using his Special Ability.

Fortunately, it's midnight now.

I can feel that the conditions for using special skills are in place and that there is no obstacle to the exercise of the hand axe in an attempt to become one.

But I can't use it.

At the end of the day, wide-area annihilation skills ravage this entire ship.

However, there is an ally (plus) on board, Doris, who has been provisionally certified as Protected (Safe).

It is Emily who identifies enemy allies and wipes out enemies, which is why she cannot take offensive action against them...... not (...).

However, there is no way to deal with natural enemies in front of you (Eldridge) without using them.

If you hold your hand, another Yonal Depaztri will also be destroyed with special skills after Cool Time is vacant.

When Emily was placed in an unprecedented predicament...

"- from (chi)!"

- The sound of something huge crawling with such a voice echoed into the mall.

Nature, the consciousness of Eldridge and Emily is directed toward the sound.

What was there was a giant mite-like weirdness.

He was a pure dragon worm johnsie with a mark on his forehead.

We both perceive each other in the figure of [Dragworm Kyonsie].

Eldridge must have had the strength to withhold from Emily's predicament, which would have been unexpected to the enemy.

Emily wondered if Zhang had moved to help herself.

That's right, this [Dragworm Kyonsey] is what Zhang called it. It was here that he cut off a handful of his power after the Mirage's destruction.

Identify Eldridge as the enemy and strike him as commanded by the symbol [Dragworm Kyonsie].

But for Eldridge, a pure dragon class johnsie is not the enemy.

It's now greatly enhanced with the status you took from Emily, in the first place......

"Right there."

Eldridge waved his right hand - not "Takeover," but his right hand, which set "Big Pocket," to [Dragworm Kyonsie].

Shortly afterwards, [Dragworm Kyonsey] was stripped of the forehead symbol and fell to the floor of the mall with the sound of the ground.

Kyonsie is not an autonomous undead, but an undead controlled by a token.

Therefore, Eldridge knew that if he took the symbol, he could be powerless.

In the end, this [Dragworm Kyonsie] only makes some time, and that doesn't make enough sense to make money from a cool-time perspective either.

But that's only if [Dragworm Kyonsey] is the only one on this scene.

Kyonsie attacked Eldridge. It wasn't the whole thing.

That temporarily draws the attention of Eldridge, who admitted to being a threat.

"... Kyonsie, you say?

Yet another [Dragworm Kyonsie] is crawling through the deck of the ship, pushing it to the bridge.

On the bridge, Manigold is still deploying a barrage that prevents [Third Nix] from approaching.

As if to say even to inhibit it, the second [Dragworm Kyonsie] was aiming for a bridge.

…………

If it's a manigold shell, it's an opponent you can destroy in an instant, but you can't do that.

Bad angle of shot. If Manigold shoots Kyonsie on the lower deck, he'll destroy the hull as well.

"Isara."

"Yes."

Therefore, an escort for these times...... [Princess Steel] Manigold commanded Isala.

Isala immediately jumps out of the broken window of the bridge and intercepts Kyonsie.

Unlike Magingear, Kyonsey was an opponent who did not have metal material, but still instantly damaged his entire body by the metal manipulative magic of Isara, [Princess Steel].

Pure dragon undead. Normally, it's a threat area, but I wasn't strong enough to deal with super positions at the mall or here.

It only buys some time either way -,

"- True Vortex True Knife Dragon Champion."

- It should have been.

Shortly afterwards, the mall and two johnsies on deck swelled up from the inside.

It was countless symbols that scattered from the two ruptured bodies.

It is a Taoist symbol, created in advance for deep activation.

Inside Kyonsey, the symbol of profound righteousness is planted at number eighteen of the [Great Spiritual Taoist] Zhang Funeral Qi.

Activated Deep Righteousness is the great magic of the wind that chops everything up, the True Vortex True Knife Spin Dragon Hegemony.

Its size was smaller than that once used for AR-I-CA, but it happened simultaneously in two places.

It temporarily presses and retains Eldridge,

blowing Isara defensively with metal manipulation,

- I cut the bridge where the manigold was diagonally off the hull (...).

The bridge collapses with the roar, onto the deck, and falls into the desert.

Even in that situation, Manigold is intact by the power of his Super Embrio.

"... oh, this is not good"

It sounds like I'm not in a hurry... but I actually thought I was in a really bad state.

Manigold crashes into the desert with the wreckage of the bridge, trapped among the numerous giant wreckages of what will not be damaged.

The collapse is too fast to deal with accurately in his AGI, and if we shell it in the detour, we can't do it either because we could shoot through the hull.

Unable to move that way, he left the front locked in a cage of sand and wreckage.

Nature, the barrage breaks.

"- Now"

It's not a makina where the curtain that holds back the way you go misses a lost gap.

Fully open the vernier so you can't even change direction.

It packs the distance from the hull in an instant by ultrasonic manoeuvre, breaking through the wall and entering the interior at that speed.

Eldridge and Emily were at the mall where they were engaged when they broke through the wall and broke in.

――――

Either one of you was the one whose consciousness blacked out on the sudden intruder.

In any case, Eldridge cannot move by Zhang's depths.

That rigidly- [Sardnix] 's incendiary armored bullet was knocked in.

Defense comparable to Eldridge's mythical class and stats taken from Emily.

But the incendiary armored bullet precisely chooses the meat in his abdomen and burns out his gut.

Put that in one sentence...... the upper and lower body were connected only with the spine.

"Oh, fu..."

A fatally wounded Eldridge falls on his back spitting blood.

But while falling... he exercises the Big Pocket into an intruder, a fuselage.

But it was played.

(Measures taken…? Pretty tough......)

Fatal wounds, but there are still lives.

But that was the other way around.

If this blow had been lethal, we would have been able to disable it in [Brooch].

It is severely injured to the extent that it does not die, and death is inevitable due to the continued damage of the injury system condition abnormality. Worst condition for [Brooch].

But this isn't a coincidence... Makina was after it.

"... so far, huh?"

Eldridge thought about what HP could do by the time it lost all, but there was nothing.

Cool time hasn't dawned yet, and I can't even target Emily in "Takeover" because of the red and white mechanical dragons forming between me and Emily.

Everything I can do is over... Eldridge guessed.

(.................. did you lose to < super > after all)

Speaking of results, I can't say anything but defeat.

But not like previous defeats.

By the time it was brought into this form, the two fights required were Super and one Tian Super.

If any one hand was missing, Eldridge could have held out until cool-time release and stabbed Emily with a todome.

He was infinitely close to destroying the most powerful PK in immortality.

Or it could be... more than just killing < super >.

"... [Robbery King] Eldridge?"

And whosoever praised the result, he was there.

Rascal had taken considerable damage to his body in [Sardonics] combat manoeuvres, but still guessed everything with information obtained from external monitors.

One of Emily's Yonal Depaztries is damaged.

Rascal knew that it was this man who would fall in front of him who cornered that Emily so far.

Eldridge's name was on the list, and I know how it's been.

He led quite a few PK clans and had as much brainpower and control as he could stack his track record, but since the incident in the earlier kingdom, it was an assessment of a man from the past who was also abandoned by members and broken himself.

However, the assessment must be corrected.

"Eldridge, I'm Rascal. Rascal the Black Onyx."

…………

To his name, Eldridge sounded familiar.

He said he was one of the < super > nominated and essentially the man running the strongest crime clan.

"I have one suggestion for you."

"... what?

Eldridge thought about what such an opponent would say to himself...

"After the death penalty dawns - get in"

That was the word of solicitation.

< IF > is making a series of incidents to capture the power of warfare in the field.

Whether compatible or not, the battle was underway in the opponent's favor of an overwhelmingly qualified Emily.

The rest of us wouldn't even have been able to foresee a case going on. The sense of smell of being on this ship.

past achievements and proof left that his strength to do it is never decaying even now.

Rascal had identified Eldridge as the force to be added to his peers after a series of force surveys.

"... to your clan?

"It's from a support member, but if you become Super, you will be promoted to a full member." Emily will recognize you as an enemy for a while, so she'll have you go outside of Cardina. But I'll pay you enough for the money and the items. '

…………

Rascal thus also offered the amount of the deposit.

That was an enormous sum of money that < Goblin Street > had never gotten before in its peak season.

Never, not on bad terms.

Rather a broken favor for a man who loses through.

I can come here and say I'm finally getting lucky.

"- - Say no (...)"

But he didn't accept it.

Without even getting lost, he shook his head.

What passed behind Eldridge's brain was the faces of two women.

"My clan... only one"

To Faye and Niara, who have followed me so far, more than Rascal's offer...... Eldridge's balance was leaning without shaking.

…………

I didn't expect you to say no.

But there was no more lost in Eldridge's words than Rascal thought.

"... even if you lose, that's all you can give away"

And Eldridge spoke of defeat... becoming the dust of light.

Later, only the mall and the rascals remained close to the ruins.

"It's a shame."

Rascal sincerely regretted Eldridge's disappearing appearance, including his temper... and felt a slight sense of defeat at the same time.

But I'll get back on my mind soon.

Because now there is more to be done than to put your thoughts through it.

…………

After Eldridge disappeared, Emily kept standing there with a vain look.

It is not in automatic killing mode, nor is it in a normal state.

Rascal was also in a state he had never seen before.

(... or even say you're mentally fatigued?

Emily acted too much on this ship as never before.

Is that a good turn for Emily or a dark turn? That was not even known to Rascal yet.

Either way, I decided Emily wouldn't be able to take any more combat action.

Unlimited likelihood unlikely, but pack if there was another user of weapon destruction skills.

At least Emily decided we should get her evicted here.

Rascal called Zhang by correspondence and instructed him to retreat with Emily.

Now the external frigates are silent.

If you leave the fallen bridge in a direction that sandwiches the hull of the [Eltrame], you can't chase Manigold either. In addition, if you sprinkle the johnshee, you can escape safely on top of each other.

"Mr. Rascal..."

"I'm going to the power block. Cases of unexpected troubles overlapping, but that's all we have to do... '

Beyond such incidents, the [Eltram] ends on this voyage.

In that case, the Cardina Congress would take over the power reactor… or possibly even buy it out legally.

Thinking about it later, it was something we absolutely had to avoid.

"Hurry up, Makina."

"Icer!"

[Sardnix] then heads to the power block... where he will be relative to the two < MaginGear >.

In this way, the battle was over, except for the power block.

Eldridge is dead.

Emily retreated after Eldridge destroyed Embrio.

Manigold is in a state of inaction amid the rubble of the bridge.

Rascal has failed to solicit this and prospective talent.

Everyone seemed like he'd lost, but who would he be if he chose the winner?

I'm sure that... is left to the discretion of the individual.
