□ [Armored Pilot] Hugo Receps

'That's a good reaction! I saw the contents as super professional pilots!

A cheerful woman's voice echoes from a red and white fuselage that should also be called a mechanical dragon.

"[Imperial Glory]. Curtis Erdona of [Superpilot]......? On the list... you were there '

Then I also heard a bitter man saying if he was injured somewhere.

Apparently, the red and white mechanical dragon was boarded by two humans.

Or maybe it's a fuselage that operates with Master and Embrio, like me and Cuco.

'... who is it? Though it is clear that he is an unscrupulous man who calls his name in disgrace and drives a fuselage that mimics the brilliant Jade Dragon.'

There were only a few signs of tension in Curtis's voice as to the content of the words.

That wasn't what it was when you were relative to me.

Maybe something like an olfactory sensation that only good pilots can tell makes them do that.

'It's not enough to name it. I don't want anything from you. "

"Is that it? You're in a super position, but you don't solicit or anything? They just shook it, and you're not getting new power here?

'If you're just a strong person, you don't need it.' Cause it's enough to change people. '

Although the meaning of the conversation would have been unknown to me and to Curtis, it could have been inferred that there was a slight mix of underratings there.

Intimidation from [Imperial Glory] increases….

"Ah, my lord! I just checked and figured it out!

women cheerfully voiced not to interfere with it,

"That gold is loaded with ground dragon-shaped power furnaces, too, right?

"... FUCK. It's a ship with a lot of extra work, this is it. '

The mechanical dragon moves out as the man responds with a badly grumpy voice.

"repeated insults and their hostility... you seem to identify yourself as an enemy and not hinder it"

Correspondingly, [Imperial Glory] also moves out.

And the dragon's < Magingear > and the mechanical dragon's < Magingear > face each other with the roar of the power furnace,

- - I clashed.

[Imperial Glory] pushes a very small tipped lance into the mechanical dragon.

But as if he had been reading it, the mechanical dragon cleverly pushes the side of Lance with his left forefoot to deviate.

The fuselage of the dragon head swings the tail balancer laterally in the momentum flowing to the right, descending [Paint Napalm] into the mechanical dragon, presumably in a state of standby for use from the previous moment.

In response to impending liquid gunpowder, the mechanical dragon lowers itself just under the splash, blowing the vernier and diving through it in an instant.

With the liquid gunpowder on his back, the mechanical dragon moves behind [Imperial Glory].

At that time, the dragon head's fuselage had also completed its return to the back, pointing its left hand at the back of the mechanical dragon.

"-" Missile Darts "

"-" Rush Missiles "

Countless blast bombs (missiles) released from the left hand side of the dragon-head fuselage.

Numerous missiles also jump out of the rear of the machine dragon to intercept it.

The attacks on both sides hit each other at a midpoint that would involve both aircraft in the blast, causing a blast and destruction in the power block.

――

The two planes were moving toward each other before the blast even subsided.

Hit the fuselage with the roar.

"Ho...!

"Ya, Ri, hey!

- Mutual.

There was a battle there that I could only see with each other.

Alternatively, there may also be numerous layers of offense on a level that I don't see.

So much so that the strength of both seemed to befriend each other.

At least, in a legitimate battle, I can't reach either.

Hugo, are you wearing it?

…………

The odds of winning are never high.

but...... not zero. If I could use that tactic (...) that I met with Niara beforehand......

If we make the most of the advantages this one has for those two planes... we have a chance.

◇ ◆ ◇

□ ■ [Eltrame] - Power block

"… slightly disadvantaged,"

Rascal calmly decided so as the rear seat makina carried on the fuselage with an exceeding technique.

The fuselage performance is basically outweighed by [Imperial Glory], which was previously handled by Makina, a decentralization of civilized technology, over [Third Nix].

Rather, it can even be said that Curtis' skill in riding around a fuselage with a broken balance is unusual.

"If it's coarse, it won't be a battle at the time of the power furnace... because it's loaded with opponents."

[Sardonics], a dragon-type < Magingear >, but the most advantageous compared to other < Magingear > is the power reactor originally from civilization in the previous period.

A heavenly dragon-type, or earth-dragon-type power reactor designed by Flagman, used in earlier civilized weapons typical of the brilliant Jade Dragon.

The power furnace of a normal magical machine converts the magic power (MP) of the passenger into a power similar to earth attribute magic or to heavenly attribute magic to move the fuselage. It's more of a transducer than a power reactor, but that puts a huge limit on uptime and output depending on the passenger's MP.

Hugo's [White Rose] is the best, but [Marshall II] can never be said to run long when he sees it as a combat weapon either.

Even for tank-type [geists], specifications reduce MP loss and extend uptime by assigning individual personnel to driving and shelling.

The best converting efficiency and output in modern power furnaces is the [Blue Opera] power furnace, but it is also in exchange for the disadvantage of quietness and cannot be reproduced with a substitute made by chance.

But Flagman's power reactors draw a line with them.

Without converting a person's magic power, the power furnace itself supplies and converts magic almost permanently.

Only the first generation of flagmen can understand where the hell they are drawing all that magic from, and theories are left over even by the historical flagmen who are supposed to take over knowledge instead.

Even though I know how to make it [Onao Designer (Machina)], I don't understand why it happens… Safety is hung so that I don't understand it rather than say…

Therefore, the power furnaces of the Tenryu type and the Ground Dragon type are extremely rare items, and simply mounted on them makes the difference that cannot be filled in the grid (...) as < Magingear >.

Oddly though...... both of the opposing aircraft here are mounted.

What is the difference between an item mounted on a weapon after 2000 years and a new one built by Makina... there is no significant difference in performance.

"If that one notices... you're at a disadvantage"

The number of power furnaces is beaten by [Sardonics], but still mutually.

Rather, it is pushed slightly for a reason.

difference in super positions, is.

Makina has excellent skills.

Whatever, the boarding flagman weapon of civilization from the previous period, all its basic maneuvering data, is as good as she handled it.

But she's not human, and she can't even get a job.

There is no such thing as job skills to support her maneuvering.

In addition, Rascal's [Vessel God], which rides with him, also has the main purpose of operating and continuing to use the weapon, and the effect of enhancing the performance itself is thin.

In contrast, Curtis, a [superpilot], also has skills to improve airframe performance, including Skill Level EX's Piloting.

If you continue to fight for a long time, you have minutes in [Third Nix] where you can continue to recover.

But a short-term showdown could defeat [Imperial Glory].

Curtis still can't grasp the [Third Nix] hand tag, so he won't be folding, but if he reads out his hand within the fight, he'll step in.

Rascal knew it would be detrimental if they cut that depths first...

Hence......

"... makina. Use high rigger (...) - trinitate (...)"

I decided to cut the ghost bill first.

"Is that okay?

Machina, still in the process of sharpening Curtis and Xu, was surprised by Rascal's words.

"I don't mind. Either way, that evil taste of gold or the power furnace here needs to be crushed."

Or you may be able to recover it if you come into contact with Deus Ex Machina, but it is impossible to execute it on [Imperial Glory] in operational condition, and at the same time you cannot approach the power reactor while the enemy aircraft is alive.

To do anything, the premise was to crush [Imperial Glory].

"Copy that! Limits are…"

"Stop before I die (...)"

"... Icer!

Thus, Makina prepared herself to enter the command into the console of [Third Nix].

"Melee White Soldier Mode, Setup! Heiliger Trinitate... Startup!

◆

"I didn't know there was anyone who would have me in a manoeuvre war."

Curtis was wrapping her tongue around [Sardonics] crossing with herself, inside.

He has been on Maggie for almost twenty years.

[Geist] modified for one person, a half-man and a half car dedicated aircraft [Outrail] left at the Marquis of Erdona's house, now a heavy duty custom [Marshall II] given to Lt. Col. Berlin.

And this [Imperial Glory].

I have manipulated numerous airplanes so far, but at no time have there been any pilots who could fight each other.

I didn't know it would show up now to move the most high-performance aircraft... something he couldn't have expected either.

Not only the technology, but also the completeness of the fuselage is amazing. Curtis, who even found a gap in armor in [White Rose], can't find the point to aim at.

"If this is just a battlefield, let's get our minds pumped..."

I don't have time for that right now.

We must destroy this enemy as soon as possible and take the power furnace of the [Eltram].

The joy of being a warrior and his great purpose was rocking, placed on both sides of the balance.

"Best of all, if you say this enemy will have the same power reactor... I'll take that too"

In terms of the opponent's output, and the lack of signs of weakening even as he continued to fight, Curtis also perceived the opponent to be a fuselage loaded with civilized power furnaces from earlier periods.

Even if it is an unplanned adversary, it is also good if there is more to gain.

Curtis thought so and assembled the steps to defeat the mechanical dragon in front of him….

"... hmm?

- I looked out for the changes that began to happen to mechanical dragons.

Forefoot section...... Claw, which was only about anchor to the ground, is stretched and turned into an obvious weapon.

In addition, the entire body shape also extends the hands and feet, and the placement of the thrusters is modified.

But the biggest difference is… its color (...).

The mechanical dragon, which was red and white, has changed its color from time to time.

The white part of the armor is red-hot and the whole body is dyed red and red.

"What?"

Curtis's aggressive deviation from the aircraft's angle was unconscious behavior.

Shortly thereafter, however, a red mass passed through at an invisible rate.

The shoulder armor of the golden fuselage is engraved with nail marks (...) to indicate its passage.

……‼

There is no time to say the word 'fast', and further pursuits are deformed by claws.

A red and red-stained fuselage strikes at a rate that exceeds the previous one.

The tail balancer swung for defense and restraint during the onslaught was damaged and "Paint Napalm" was rendered unusable.

"... this, ha!

The combat manoeuvre was separate, to the extent that the previous movements were pulled even on the three sides.

(Righteous! Or a perk weapon! Either way, looks like that one cut the trump card first......!

To the sudden change of enemy planes so cold sweaty...... but Curtis' mouth angle was starting to rise.

◆

Curtis' guess is half right.

This power is indisputably the trump card of Rascal and Makina.

But that's neither profound nor rewarding.

The Holy Trinity "Heiliger Trinitate".

Similar to [Tetra Gramaton], the mother ship of the Rascals, it is based on the term of the greatest religion… not skill.

Combination if you say so (...).

In the name of the Trinity, the performance of [Sardonics], the technique of maneuvering Makina, and Rascal's job skills… are simultaneously fully open (...).

Run two power furnaces with enough output to detonate beyond the limit.

Drive the fuselage with enough maneuvering to crush and scatter the fuselage.

Forcefully brake those recoil with the continuous use of [Vessel God] 's repair and error elimination skills.

That is, stabilize the fuselage in red zone (...) (...).

If there is an equilibrium between self-loss due to unlimiter cancellation and recovery due to skills, it will remain purely to improve performance to different digits.

But......

"Oh, heh...!

The super-fast step and impact streak in hypersonic manoeuvre was fatal for Rascal, who was inferior to physical endurance.

He spits blood, and his bones are shattered in a progressive form right now.

A force that cannot be used without Rascal ([Vessel God]).

I see, that rascal is the only drawback.

Whether Makina was first to destroy the enemy aircraft, Rascal was first to breathe in recoil, or Heiliger Trinitate was a move equal to the sword of the blades.

"Your husband......!

"... don't worry"

Says Rascal, taking down pills of recovery forcefully with his own blood.

"... if you spare my life, you just take this guy down"

"... Icer!

Machina nods at Rascal's words and folds further streaks in the unlimited fuselage.

◆

"Heh, heh, heh, heh...!

Curtis was experiencing the armor crushing from his hands and feet one by one.

But I don't know that face and throat... I'm laughing.

My heart is pouring on a strong enemy of my kind.

In the first place, his essence is he who fights.

That's why I fell in love at first sight with Claudia, who has a broken talent.

And now, in his original purity... his balance leaned toward the battle in front of him.

"Mamma Machine Interface"... Startup!

That's why Curtis activated the depths of the [superpilot].

You can only use it once a day, the depths you were supposed to keep for escape.

But... it probably won't show up again. If we were to use it against each other, it wouldn't have been a shame.

Immediately after, the nails of [Third Nix] in the Heiliger Trinitate state approached the torso of [Imperial Glory],

- Curtis wiped his nails with a spear,

- He was tapping more knee kicks into [Sardonics] 's chest.

[Sardonics] cockpit, and now Makina looked out for him.

Obviously moving differently.

It's not just pure speed.

The fuselage of the dragon head increased momentarily… it was a flowing motion.

The depths of [Superpilot], the power of the "Man Machine Interface".

Active enhancement skills, not passive...... triple STR and AGI performance.

But the backbone of this skill is not strengthening, etc.

That's the ultimate in piloting.

The final system of skills that I know how to steer as I wish.

- Keep thinking, the fuselage moves.

I no longer even need to grip the joystick.

Curtis now is the [Imperial Glory].

It moves the flesh, but without any time lag the fuselage follows his thoughts.

'I can see, I can see! Ha-ha-ha!'

Without moving his own mouth, Curtis utters words in an external speaker on the fuselage.

The steel fuselage exceeds the speed of sound, but its movement flows more than that of the human body.

'…… enemy aircraft threat correction. pattern building. Continuous trial of coping plans'

The opposing Machina divides all of her arithmetic abilities into combat actions and engages in a tactic to bury away the enemies in front of her, transformed into an integrated man-machine.

It is here that the two forces of war are balanced again.

However, time limits exist for both.

Two planes with a power reactor that can fight semi-permanently, but not forever.

The Golden Dragon Head is approaching the limit of the fuselage due to accumulated damage,

Red and red mechanical dragons are close to Rascal's death.

Together, all we want is a short showdown.

But if cutting the trump card still doesn't clog the difference between the two, there's one hitter.

One or eight, big beat.

"Charge complete. Replace the sniper barrel with Energy Mode. Enemy aircraft... in range '

[Sardnix] pointed his neck at the enemy, which is also the shell of a sniper,

"Hahahahahahahahahahahaha"

[Imperial Glory] also opened its dragon-head jaw wide,

The two...... the dinosaurs look to each other,

"-" Blast Flare "!

"-" Dragonic Burn "!

- Both were (...) shooting ultra-high fever energy beams off their heads.

Dazzling light dyeing the power block.

And a huge amount of heat clashed between the two aircraft.

The surprise was that they were both at the same time.

It converts all the magic power produced by the ground dragon-type power reactor into heat and showers it from close range.

I couldn't even call it armed because I didn't think they were loaded.

Machine Dragon was planted by Makina as a close-range concealer to the wrong enemy, who saw his head only as a sniper.

The Dragon Head is… Armed piled by the production team's hobby that 'If you're a super robot, you should put out a hotline'.

And oddly enough, the power of both was mutual again.

In the conversion efficiency and output of the fuselage itself, there are obviously two [third nix] mounted on top.

However, [Imperial Glory] has improved its output itself with [Superpilot] skills.

As a result, homogeneous forces collided with each other, creating a state of equilibrium that should be instantaneous and special.

But I can't even disarm it from myself.

If you solve it first in this state, you will be unilaterally exposed to the opponent's attacks.

As a result, it presented a look at chicken lace: 'Which first creates a limit to the mechanism of spitting out energy beams'.

In such a life-saving equilibrium,

"- Cuco"

- The silent white rose was finding its only chance of winning.
