Out of the conference room, I head to the hangar early.
Where my fuselage is stored is the Nostalgia Third Hangar. My fuselage is undergoing maintenance in the same hangar where I first brought my fuselage here.
Stepping inside the hangar, the Harmonica pistole magazine was hoisted with cranes along with noisy mechanical sounds.
"Oh, Eldo, are you here?"
"What's going on with the maintenance?
"Fuel and all kinds of connections are fine. Now Karine's going directly into the cockpit to rewrite the physical operator (sense board)."
Do you want to replace the magazine now?
"Oh."
"Then I'll move the fuselage. Because it's faster."
It's faster to reload yourself just now than you are about to remove the harmonica pistol installed in the rear of the fuselage and replace the magazine.
"That would help. Eldo wants to replace the magazine directly!
When Mr. Ritz spoke to Mr. O'Rail, the old man who was operating the crane, Mr. O'Rail came down from the crane leaving the hoisted magazine intact.
"Right! Then this is the way it is! When you're done, don't leave the fuselage!
A hangar mechanic follows Mr. O'Rail's instructions to leave the fuselage. In the meantime I went on the catwalk and stuck my face in the cockpit.
"Mr. Carine, how are you?
"I'm done here, too. If that's all, it won't take long."
That being the case, I wield a special rod like a brush for writing on a physical operator (sense board).
"If you just want to set it weak, just change one letter. Finally, I've changed the synchronization with the physical operator (Sense Board) a little bit, so I'm sure it hasn't changed at all."
"That's great"
It is still an amazing technique to include script modifications in this short period of time.
We're doing what's equal to rewriting parts of the OS, even if we're supposed to just change the magic power settings. It's not a strange place to go if you get bugs or errors, but I didn't expect you to even fix slight discrepancies that come out on top of going without a problem with that.
He's usually a gal who goes to Wang Du for esteem or something, but I can still feel he's a knight in these situations.
Such a brilliant Mr. Carine comes out of the cockpit when he covers the physical operator (sense board).
Instead, I got in.
"If you want to do it anyway, win. If Eldo had a foil on him, it would have been the foil of the squad. Do your best to make me proud of my host in King's Capital."
"Kuku, I'm not going to fight you with the intention of losing. Expect it. I'll close the hatch."
Make sure Mr. Carine leaves the hatch, and I'll manipulate the lever to close the hatch. At the same time, the instruction button of the fuselage was pushed in and the panel in the aircraft was lit.
"You're still in good shape."
The airframe situation shown is stable all-green.
Gently move the maneuvering lever at hand to return a smooth touch. Even though the parts are after the total, the movement has not changed.
Again, when serviced in a solid maintenance factory, they can do the same to the feel of the operating lever or the hood pedal.
"I'll activate it."
Raise the generator's output and press the start button in. Eyes lit on the fuselage, and the vibrations transmitted from the foot conveyed the good condition of the fuselage.
"Sounds good. Looks like you want to get busted, too."
"Eldo, we're replacing the magazine!
"Yes!"
Step forward from the hanger and remove the harmonica pistole from your hips.
The magazine was stretching sideways like a harmonica, and I grabbed it and pulled it out of my right.
"Where do you want to put it?
"In front of me!
Mr. Ritz himself marked it and showed me where it was, so I slowly grabbed the magazine there and grabbed the magazine with the paint bullet that remained attached to the crane.
"I gripped it. Please untie me."
"Whoa, wait."
The clattering metal sounds and the strings that were attached to the magazine come off. I gently waved the remaining string off and loaded the pistol from the left.
The first bullet just came to the core of the gun and it makes a cock noise and rocks. Looks like this loaded the bullet.
"Then I'll go. Which route should I use?
"On the shortest route. Yes. Soldiers have been informed."
"Thank you"
Apparently, the hangar mechanic notified the soldiers in advance of the aircraft's movement.
If I walked out of the hangar slowly as it was, I noticed that the siren for movement was ringing. In the warehouse, I couldn't seem to notice the generator's noise or the crane's noise.
Keep moving and I'll head to the special entrance to the Academy.
The Academy's school building is surrounded by walls, so you need to get out of town once or use a special gate to get in.
As soon as I went all over town, I could see the gate.
Up to the fifth floor of the school building is a huge gate, which is already open and closed. And through the windows on the sixth and seventh floors, which are like a crossing, the students at the Academy gathered so much that they thought the crossing would fall.
Well, it's not normal to see a regular pilot's game. Even when I was there, I never saw it.
And my opponent is said to be the strongest in the kingdom. Everyone will pay attention.
With the cheers of the students, I dive into the gate and enter the school yard.
The meadows stretching out in front of you and the woods behind you are a nostalgic landscape. Even though it's only been six months since I graduated, I'm about to get swept up by strange sentiments.
"I shouldn't, I shouldn't. It's a game now."
Take a big, deep breath and look before you blow your sentiments away. There, my opponent was already waiting.
The same type of aircraft, but would the armor be sharper than the average almunare? The prints on it are also very beautiful. It's a royal escort, so do you even care how it looks?
Well, I don't care about that. Either way, you're gonna be worn out in the game. The problem is the opponent's weapon.
What you can see from the front is a shield gripped in your left hand. It's not a normal shield, it's a strange shield in a shape that protects your left arm to your elbow while you draw a curve. That would be like being guarded by a shield when you take it with your arm.
One thing we need to focus on is the tip of the shield. It's pretty sharp, and if you just get beat up with that, you could be pulled out of armor. That might as well be judged a sword that can also be defended.
The only other weapons are the three swords worn behind your hips? They all look short sword sized.
In the direction of the sheath, two for the right hand and one for the left hand? Instead of when the shield breaks...... either way, you watch out for a duplicitous move.
After checking the captain's fuselage, I slowly brought it to the position where I would face the fuselage. Then I hear voices from the Captain General's plane.
"That was a lot faster. I thought it would take a little longer."
"My mechanic is excellent."
"It does seem that way. I'm guessing you've made some changes to your settings, too?
"Yeah, it's a weak setup and paint bullet for the game"
"Then there's no problem. besides, the audience has gathered, but it will also be a good study for them"
"Hopefully it won't be a one-sided game."
"Which is it?
"Come on."
Slap each other lightly against each other.
"What happens to the referee?
"I leave it to the Academy's faculty. I'm sending you to pick up the fuselage just in case, so give me a minute."
"There's going to be a few more galleries."
If you look at the school building side, students are already observing this one through almost every classroom window.
Everyone in my unit apparently just arrived, sitting on a staircase at the entrance to the school garden.
And the Unit Leaders of Unit I are sitting down and talking about something in the same way.
I'm just too far away to pick up my voice.
"The pilot Eldo's fuselage is a lot more basic."
"I just got it, and I didn't have time to squeeze it properly. Do you have time to be a Kingsguard?
"Sometimes they rarely go out for inspections, but the royalty basically lives in the castle. You'll get plenty of time."
"I appreciate that. I have a lot of modification plans that I want to do."
"I hear your maneuvering methods have changed. I'm looking forward to everything."
"Try to keep up with your expectations"
Talking about that, the instructor came into the school yard aboard a practice aircraft. I miss that plane, too.
And then the instructor complains to us about bumps in the microphone.
"Damn, I thought you contacted me to leave it empty because I'm going to use the schoolyard this afternoon, now it's the referee of the game? You can do a lot of whatever you want, Lord Dennis."
"Sorry, this is work too. Besides, it would be a good opportunity to see how powerful the students who grew up with Gazzle are."
I guess we know each other somewhat to see them slap each other a lot lighter. I can't think of synchronization at my age, and I wonder if Instructor Gazzle was the co-pilot of the Captain General?
"This guy is different. I won't defend the foundations of the fuselage. Long time no see, Eldo. Activity is in my ear."
"It's been a while. Looking good, above all."
"I can't beat your power. Well, this one has to move on with the class, too. Finish it early."
"Okay."
"Okay."
As instructed by the instructor, we will face each other at some distance.
"The rules are non-lethal strict. Magic power is weak. Bullets use paint bullets. Attacks on the cockpit are possible, but must be incarcerated. If you can't protect this, don't attack. If we break it, we'll deal with kingdom law as a loose murder. I'll decide whether the opponent admits defeat or not. Are you okay with both?
"None"
"None."
"We will now begin the match between First Kingsguard Armunale Battalion and General Captain Dennis Ejit and Thirty-first Armunale Battalion and Captain Eldo! Begin!"
At the same time as the start signal, I pull the harmonica out of my hips and shoot it with my right leg jointed. The captain mutilated the bullet as he pulled the sword out with his right hand.
The paint bullet begins and causes the paint to adhere to the sword.
I was slightly upset when I easily returned the attack that I thought I would be able to preempt.
Enemy planes approach, as if to poke that gap. That speed, even if it's not as fast as the full manual controls I use, is the same speed as the half manual controls Battis and the others used.
I release my gun again as I push and kill upset. Now I aimed at the left foot joint, which is lightly prevented by the shield.
It's completely read where I'm going.
At the time I made that decision, I threw Harmonica Pistole at him.
Additionally, match the standard to the thrown pistol and release the fire lance.
Firelance hits the pistol directly, detonating the gunpowder as it involves the fuselage that was about to play the pistol with its sword.
This should have stopped us.
In the meantime, I pull out my sword, and this one runs out.
Exactly. Impact breaking involving gunpowder seemed enough to stop the enemy aircraft from legging. But the smoke cleared. There you are, a soaked but almost intact fuselage.
"Is your armor stiff?
Even though it's just weakening its power, it's odd that it can just coal in the wake of a blast of fire and gunpowder. Even my fuselage should have some damage to the armor.
Then the reason should be hidden.
But for now!
Two blades crashing into each other.
My opponent took the sword I waved down.
In the meantime, I got the first move. Keep attacking without breaking the flow!
"Good move. Interesting judgment too."
I hear voices from the captain's fuselage.
"Okay, I'll let you go, too."
The left arm I was paying attention to moves. Distancing and dodging his protruding left arm, he releases a tornado toward the foot of the enemy aircraft.
The wound soil prevents the target from seeing. But the Captain General popped out through the tornado.
The tip of the shield stuck out shortly afterwards blurred his critical shoulder, even as he played a short sword that was swung down.
I push the short sword back into my arms and take a step straight in as I catch a mild shock.
If you're in super close proximity, you shouldn't even have the power of a shield.
"Is that power the way you manipulate rumors?"
"The captain also uses the half, right?"
"To be strong, incorporate whatever technology it is. If it's to protect the royal family, it's natural."
"Sure!
With even more strength, the opponent lowered back to himself.
I take a step further with my powers on, trying to fly the enemy's sword.
But the next moment, the enemy plane scratched out of my sight.
"Become!?
When I was surprised, I had a strong impact on my back. And at the same time, I realize I'm being defeated.
He rolls down the fuselage at once, causing the fuselage to fall out of between swords to be swung down.
For a moment now. I didn't know what they did. But I'm pretty sure the target's speed was way above this one.
I can't move like that, not even in a full manual. Besides, the captain himself said it was a half-manual. It's possible he's lying, but he doesn't even seem like someone who would say that here.
If so, I can think of...
"Is that magic?
"Well, after about a blow, do we get to that conclusion? The captains didn't notice until they destroyed the fuselage."
"Then I'll show you what magic is."
"Huh, let's hope!
Our fuselage moves at the same time.
But my fuselage is a step behind. The opponent's fuselage is clearly fast.
Hit the sword and explore why.
There is no such thing as speeding magic. Then you should be speeding up eventually in an indirect way.
Is the hardness of the armor likely to be a hint?
The opponent's sword is fast and can't prevent everything. Gradually, scratches began to enter my fuselage.
"Ku......"
"Haaaa!
Enemy aircraft accelerated further. And my fuselage is about to collapse again. But now I could make sure.
Throw away your sword and distance yourself from the enemy aircraft while preventing it from falling with one hand of baku rotation.
Immediately he pulled out another sword and fired at the enemy aircraft. But the magic of weak settings is easily erased by magic shields.
"Well done."
"If it's the second time"
"I see, I saw it worthy of seriousness. I'm sorry I can't fight your full fleet."
"Captain General is surprisingly a battle junkie."
I thought you were knightly, but you look like someone who loves to fight when you're talking about it.
"Otherwise, you won't be the strongest. Let's go."
The captain turns his hand behind his waist with a sword in his right hand. Then, match the pattern of the sword with the pattern of the sword you had. Then there is a chirping sound, and two swords lead to one. Plus, let go of the shield and hold the last short sword in that hand as well. A shield away from your hand is provided on your arm or it will not fall.
"Is that what the Captain General is all about?"
"Sword drama rambling. Can I just take one of those arms?
"Take it with all your might."
Both planes move simultaneously again. With my best concentration to date, I do pedals, slots, levers, and all the manipulations without overloading the basic performance of the Almunale.
In contrast, the total captain aircraft wields a blade while giving an almost equivalent speed.
Take the swing of the right hand with the sword, and retract the fuselage and pull it up with a piece of paper as the blade coupled to the opposite side is swung up for the cockpit.
He has thrust his gripping sword out, knocking Firelance in instantly, but preventing it by shield.
I can't play it in time.
That's what I decided, I kneel down the fuselage and kick it off. But the kick was stitched to the ground by a swinging sword.
"Kuh."
"That was a shame! Now!"
"Not yet!"
My left leg is sewn to the ground and my shield is approaching me. I know it's a blow to stab the stubborn, but I'm not going to lose yet.
I stick out my right-hand sword, too, to match the shield that sticks out.
My sword broke into a slight gap between the shield and the arm, destroying the locked part connecting the shield.
"What!? But!"
"One first! K!"
Even if they take my shield, the Commander-in-Chief shakes his arm as it is and hits my cockpit. To that extent the armor would not fall out, but the impact scratched through the cockpit.
I keep manipulating the fuselage as I push my violently shaken body hard against my seat belt. If we stop here, we can do it for sure.
The sword that took the shield, now swing it aside. Ahead is the coupling sword sewing up my legs.
Looks like the Captain General wasn't sure whether to pull the sword out or not, but he probably thought it would be better to let me go. Without pulling out the sword, remove only the coupling and slash. But this is fine.
"Second bottle"
"No way!"
I raised my voice as to whether the Captain General had noticed my aim. and, at the same time, a thousand cuts from his joints as his stitched legs screamed because he waved his sword in an impossible position.
"I took one leg. That's it."
"It would be from here!
"Then I'll end it!
Captain, the plane switches the sword of both hands backwards and swings it down for my fuselage.
The right-hand sword began to hit my sword, but the left-hand sword swung down as it was, piercing the right arm of the fuselage and stabbing it to the ground.
"You can't use your right hand anymore!
I guess the Captain General knew how to fight me. So I was convinced it was a win when I destroyed my right hand.
But it didn't look like you knew how to fight me in a real way.
There is a grin in the cockpit.
Then take your hand away from the lever you were operating with your right hand and reach for the group of buttons over your head. Instead, my left hand held the lever for the first time in a long time.
It's not like I can't move my left arm. I just don't have enough hands and I just can't afford to be moving it. If your right hand is gone, you just have to move your left hand!
"Become!?
The Captain General was clearly upset by my left arm, which suddenly moved out.
In that gap I pull out the sword pierced in my right arm and swing at the enemy aircraft.
The captain reacted instantly, agitated, retreating the fuselage and slashing.
I'll put my sword on my feet and slowly wake up the fuselage.
"Huh, have you been humbled?"
"It was dangerous. I was completely alarmed. Well, it's not like you can't use your left arm."
"Because you just can't afford to use it. Now, let's go with the captain's magical secret, his revelation."
"Well, did you notice?
"It's auxiliary magic. You're probably setting up joint strengthening, instantaneous acceleration, armor hardening, etc. without setting up a single attack system, right?
That's the answer I gave.
If you recall, the Captain General has never activated a long-distance magic from the beginning. On the contrary, there is only one visible magic shield.
But there must have been several chances to target me from a long distance. If you're as good as the Captain General, I don't think you'll miss that chance. If so, it is conceivable that the magic of the long-range system is not necessarily installed.
Plus, a maneuver that gives me the same speed as my fuselage. Impossible in the half. To give that speed, the Captain General was magically assisting.
It is probably accelerating forcefully by applying excessive pressure to the hydraulic pump when stepping in. That's why when it's used up close, it gives me so much initial speed that I can illuminate it as if it disappeared for a moment. But with all that addition, the joints should be easily damaged. armored hardening and joint strengthening to compensate for it.
When I made that hypothesis, I heard applause from the cockpit of the Captain General.
"You're absolutely right. I've never been answered so perfectly. Besides, this is the first time the pilot Eldo has ever stood in a swordplay scene."
"I'm glad to hear that."
"Well, I just want to go on."
"That's it. Exactly. It's not a fight in this state. My loss."
"No, no, you fought enough. If you're a squad leader, can you win enough?
"I don't know, if you don't try, you won't know."
"Kukku, let's make that happen. Judgment, please judge."
That's how the Captain General asks the Gazzle instructor, who has seen the battle all the way up close, to signal the end of the game.
"Winner, Dennis Ejit!
Along with the voice of the instructor, a loud cheer was heard from the school building side.
The fuselage has worn out, but if the kingdom has been able to fight so well so far, let's be satisfied now.
Next time we play a game, you want me to deal with you on my own plane?
I can't lose then.
I was quietly determined in the cockpit to watch the Captain General on the monitor.
Dennis took a ho breath as he heard his name called in the cockpit.
And I'm just a little surprised by the fact that I'm at ease. But as soon as I saw the monitor, I was convinced.
The monitor displaying Dennis' fuselage status showed a bright red aluminum.
Due to repeated use of magic, it was reinforced but did not hold. If the game had been a little longer, it might have been Dennis' fuselage that couldn't have stood.
In the meantime, no one has ever broken the swordplay, and they have even committed the mistake of robbing three men of their arms. As for Dennis, I thought in my mind that this battle draw - or even my own loss - was enough.
But that is unacceptable. The fact that the kingdom's strongest is His Majesty's Kingsguard is the pride of the country. You can't paint mud on that pride.
"Now you're a general-purpose machine... you're scared when you build a dedicated machine. But I'm looking forward to it."
Imagine Eldo's future growth and how strong he was when he got his special machine, Dennis would have a grin that he would not normally float.
