Me, Her, and the Ballistic Weaponry [Antique]

"" I repeat, we in the Mercenaries Dispatching Fleet are prepared to be briefed on this, to consider, to reflect on, and to change future trends regarding the claims of the Sodo Myers Security Director, the original will of the Dispatching Fleet Admiral, and the Rising Sun Alliance, to whom the entire right to operate it has been delegated by HQ. To that end, we shall immediately cease the ongoing fighting between the Zeid South and the Rising Sun Alliance Allies and demand a truce under the Emergency Ceasefire Clause of the Imperial Government Civil-Military Law. Note - "

Wide area communication from the Mercenaries Second Fleet, flowing from speakers. It had already been flushed many times, and Taro, along with Marr and Xiaomei and others, had heard it quietly on the bridge of Plum.

"- The same Admiral Sodo Meyers and two of his deputies shall be dispatched as special envoys for the Rising Sun Alliance Allies. This does not possess all armaments, except defence uniforms for anti-debris and anti-particle defense weapons, which are destined for negotiation on small ships. I refrained from attacking this. In addition, this communication shall be sent simultaneously to the Rising Sun Alliance Congress, to both sides of the Mercenaries Headquarters, and to each of the Galactic Imperial Government, the Gigantech Corporation Governing Body, and the Imperial War Law Defense Association, as third party organizations, in support of their intentions. I repeat, we..."

When Taro turned off the onboard speaker connection, he glanced at the radar screen with a pompous look. There, as the enemy put it, was a picture of a small ship that kept emitting beacons in abundance.

"... No, no, seriously, truce? Yes, okay?

If you can't believe it, Taro will look at Marl. As for waiting for the investigation team to report, I only thought it was a wish or fulfillment request.

"I don't care what you're saying from the other side. Except for the smaller ships, they're really shutting down the engines."

You're not convinced of anything, Marr said, holding his mouth. Taro took Marl's word for it and checked the radar screen, indeed the ship on the enemy's side was labeled "still".

"I don't know what's going to happen, but I'm going to stop this one for once... Soya Bella's prediction was that we wouldn't be able to close the investigation in time for the showdown with the second fleet. Maybe this will change, huh?

Taro muttered so with anticipation. It would depend on the upcoming negotiations how long they would cease, but depending on the flow, it didn't seem strange to do so.

"... Xiaomei?

Taro speaks up for Xiaomei, who remains more subdued than earlier. Xiao Mei, who received it, gave her a harsh look that she would not normally show when she snorted "Hmm".

"This is what you did."

Xiao Mei pointing to the small ship on the radar screen. Taro decided something serious had happened from Xiaomei's expression and walked over to her.

"Is something wrong? It seems so convenient to me."

"No. It's a denial, Mr. Taylor. The enemy seems to be the opponent with whom much bad wisdom works. We're going to be in quite a predicament, to be honest."

"Hey, wait a minute. With Doyuko? Explain it to me so I can understand."

"Yes, of course, Mr. Taylor. Check this out first."

"This one, no, hey."

A large screen that suddenly rises off the ground. He's about to get caught up in danger, and he's going to fall down, Taro. I guess Marl wants to talk to you, too, coming to you two.

"The Emergency Ceasefire Clause of the Imperial Government Civil-Military Law-"

Xiao Mei, pointing to the string displayed on the screen, opens her mouth as she looks down at Taro with an icy gaze. While Taro found that the sharp emotion was not directed at him, he felt something cold running on his spine.

"Various detentions during the negotiations for an emergency ceasefire have been noted, of which three are important to us today. Do you understand this?

"Ah, ah. I understand. Military knowledge has overridden one day. For starters, naturally, but suspension of aggressive behavior. Next, fix each other's positional relationships. I mean, you're forbidden to move to a vantage point. At the end, what is it? Emergency evacuation?

"Excellent answer, Mr. Taylor. Now we are carrying out an operational vibestorm against enemy pursuit units, which has dealt a painful blow. Some ships have fallen unnavigable, and the enemy is either abandoning this for both crews or pressing for time to rescue them. How do you think it works over there?

"Aren't we going to rescue them properly to see what's been going on over there? But, you know, it's only after the truce. Since there is a fixed positional relationship, can I say that the lightning field... It's obviously out to move the ship inside the Vibe Plains."

"Yeah, yeah, you're right, Mr. Taylor. But even if we don't move the ship, isn't there a way to retrieve them?"

Xiao Mei circles his face and stares at Taro's face. Taro tries to tour his thoughts about what's going on, but before that, Marr shouted "Ah".

"You're lying, right? Are you gonna dump the ship over there?

Marl, who frowned, just said he couldn't believe it. Taro got an equally no-no look given the meaning of Marl's words.

"Emergency evacuation policy… He said rescuers and wounded are not allowed to retrieve during the truce. How dare you go into the Vibe Plains or blow up a ship and treat all the crew as rescuers? No, no, this is insane, okay?

Given the price per ship, it was not very believable for Taro. Considering also the existence of electronic warplanes, the total amount seemed to be equivalent to nearly 10% of all fleets held by Rising Sun.

"You can also consider time redeemed with money, Mr. Taylor. If life isn't at stake, that's just an economic story."

Xiaomei said so coldly, still waiting for Taro to react. "Even so," Taro continued with a forethought as he put his arms together and roared.

"What do you mean, we got the war power of the ship we destroyed? If there's no truce, we'll have to fight normally as it is, so I've been thinking about the time it takes, and it doesn't seem like the temporal benefits are over there. Even if we break the truce after the rescue."

Nearly twenty ships will be able to contain this one and the time it will take to recover personnel. I don't even think they're different by the time they're deadly, and if you're going to fight, damage will naturally happen to the other side. From Taro's point of view, it seemed much more profitable to fight in every way.

"No, I don't think the other side will break the truce, Mr. Taylor. The enemy seems to be able to afford to rescue the rescuer."

Said Xiaomei with a clear face. And I said, "Huh?" and Taro leaning his neck. Marl comes in there cracking "Hey Xiaomei".

"Then what you're saying is inconsistent. They want to prioritize time, so they're asking for a truce, right? Isn't that the crazy rush to death?

"No, Miss Marr. You don't have to hurry. There will be a truce."

"Ya, so..."

"Miss Marr. Remember the foundations of classical physics. Relativity."

I blocked Marl's voice and Xiao Mei said it was good. Marr stared silently at Xiao Mei for a while, but eventually when he opened his eyes wide, he turned to the large screen to bump.

"Uh, excuse me. What's going on? I'd like you to explain it to me if you can."

Taro said with his hands up like a student. The answer to that hadn't been for a while, but eventually Marr looked up and looked at Taro.

"It's going, Taylor. The enemy fleet did shut down the engine, but it's moving on."

Serious expression marl. Taro looked up at Marl's watching screen in the same way, giving him a surprising look.

"No, you're stopping. Whatever the output looks like, it's zero, and there's no change on the radar. Jamming?"

"No. You're not, Taylor. You can't be stationary in space in the strict sense. Everything is relative. Each has a different vector, and its length, or velocity, depends on where you see it."

"............... what the hell?

"No more! Okay? We did shut down the engines while we kept each other in position. But, you know, it's just" stopped accelerating. "Doesn't mean there hasn't been an acceleration before. From our point of view, we do see each other stopping, but not from our destination. The whole fleet is approaching, including enemy allies!

"... uh, wait a minute. I kind of figured it out. This is it. Even if the two people on the train stop walking with each other, the train itself is working, isn't it? It's the universe, so there's no friction or slowing down, so even if you cut the accelerator, it won't slow down."

"Yes, Taylor! It's a little different, but it fits the mindset!

"Hehe, I'm not stupid either................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. That's cheating!?

Towards Marl, Taro rides out his body and screams. And Marl protests blushing, "Oh, it's close," he said. "It shouldn't be a problem legally," she said, taking a little distance from Taro, "but I'm angry," she continued.

"Damn... those guys, that's why you went back and accelerated. I'm hungry to earn all the speed I can within the moment. Stop, stop, stop! I was getting this truce. It's like when!

Taro begins to think about the wording of the rejection when there is no benefit here where he has received it. But there, Xiao Mei's voice cracks and enters.

"Is that possible? Mr. Taylor, the enemy is" deliberately "repeating the broadcast to all sides, isn't it?

Xiao Mei leaning her neck. When Taro stopped operating BISHOP, he turned to Xiaomei.

"How are you going to convince Congress to unilaterally jump the ceasefire demands from here? Against a small number of Imperial citizens who are paying attention to this battle? With the assumption that we are on the side of justice, we are gaining the cooperation and understanding of our surroundings because we are fighting to uncover the full extent of the facility. But the enemy said they were ready to listen to our claims, and even showed their readiness to send an unprotected admiral. Even though we have performed for it, we have already dropped even the engine's output, even though we have not even started negotiating a ceasefire yet. How in the world would a refusal to do this appear in their eyes? Legally, you probably deserve a punishment where you refuse. But is that politically possible?

Plum that throws a number of questions at me. As Taro was solidifying without being able to say anything, she went on further.

"You should also throw away the idea that you can break imperial laws or something because it's outer space. We can't afford to take such an outlaw any longer, and if there is a formal request to the Empire, the institution should be watching. Even that dingo used to follow it. And finally, the Gigantech trend. Their principle of action is that they make their assessments known to the public, not their desire to help us. From them, it shouldn't matter if the villain is us."

Have you finished saying one street, Shut up Xiao Mei. A bridge that doesn't make a single sound. Taro rubbed his eyeballs and thought about it, opening his mouth a while later.

"Are we going to set the speed in a way that walks away from each other, sooner or later from the convention...... damn it, don't be silly. I don't have time for this... How can you define a jumpable position near an example facility as a favorable position for battle?

To Taro's suggestion, Xiao Mei shook her head slowly.

"If it's impossible, it's possible. But think about it. They do not publicly acknowledge that the facility is the target of an attack. If that facility doesn't prove to be a tactical or strategic goal, it will be difficult to convince the surroundings under these circumstances. This is paradoxical, but to prove it, we're fighting like this right now."

Emotionless little plum voice. Taro sighed, drooling.

"But... you want me to keep looking at your fingers on the ground?

After Xiao Mei's answer to Taro, Marl stood up to exasperate and said.

"No, that's not true, Miss Marr."

Xiao Mei sees Mar and utters a word of denial. She said, with a grin on her cold face.

"Wouldn't it be nice if we persuaded the enemy commander that our claims were true? That way, it's our victory. Shouldn't we assume that this is not so much a truce, but rather the beginning of a battle in different ways? Xiao Mei would like to correct her earlier remarks. You shouldn't be in a predicament, you should think your chances have come."
