Rebuild World

After Guba and the others left the room, they passed away temporarily.

Dale gives Cheryl and the others a description of the relics of the old world that they found. Cheryl and his men looked at the relics of Dale and his men with great interest.

Dale speaks well.

"There was naturally economic activity in the old world, and a lot of companies existed just like now. I don't know if you're doing the same thing because you're the same person, or if you're simply imitating the person you are today. Well, put that aside and look at this part. This is the logo of the company of the old world, the House Bridge. In other words, this artifact is a product of Yasabashi Bridge. Companies in the old world also have good and evil. The company that made the Yasabashi Bridge is a pretty good product, and the buyer buys it for a pretty high price because the Yasabashi Bridge product would be good. If you do it badly, even if it was in the ruins and I took it home for now but I'm not sure what it is, there are even vendors who buy it at a high price just because it has this logo. Then a malicious hunter tries to sell it by writing this logo himself on a garbage-like artifact. Stupid shopping malls are often deceived. But a proper buyer will find out as soon as they find out. The corporate logo of the relics of the old world is printed with the technology of the old world, so you can find out if you look it up. And now the one who found the old world printing press will use it to print the corporate logo. Such weasels..."

"Oh, that."

Cheryl pinched her mouth on Dale as she spoke comfortably.

"I'm very grateful to be able to tell you a lot, but, uh, how would you like to?

It's Cheryl who's trying to get a lot out of Dale. But Dale has talked so much about it that Cheryl is more worried about it on track. Cheryl interrupted Dale's story once he thought it should calm him down.

Dale, a little calmer, recalls what he said. I did have the feeling I spoke a little too much. Still, Dale sees the look on Cheryl's face as she looks worried about herself and tries to match nature with the loss form.

"Uh, well, the one I know is a story I know, and I'm fine. And, well, think of it as the fare. We don't want to be left in the wilderness either."

"If that's the case, thank you for listening."

Cheryl lowers her head gently and smiles (cheeks) at Dale. Dale started talking again with a little light.

Akira is stepping away and watching Cheryl and the others. Share your thoughts with Alpha, taking care not to put your insides on the table.

'You talk a lot of valuable information. Is this Cheryl's arm? I'm a little scared, to be honest. I'm afraid they'll be happy to talk about what they're afraid of.

Dale's story is a pretty useful piece of information for Akira. If Akira tries to get the same information, to what extent will it cost and time exactly? The information fee alone is likely to be considerable. Cheryl is getting it by just colluding with his opponent. Akira even remembered the light warfare.

Speak with a slight bias in Cheryl's rating for the purpose of Alpha stabbing Akira with a nail.

"Cheryl understands what she looks like and makes the most of it without having to worry. I guess I have more polish on that technology because I originally had the qualities and now I'm a sidekick boss. Akira needs to be careful, right? This isn't just about Cheryl. If Akira gets stronger, a lot of people will stop by to take advantage of Akira. If you're a mutually beneficial collaborator, there are a lot of people who don't."

Akira tries to evaluate herself objectively.

'I know. I'm fine.... maybe.... if not even caught by delicious food, unless it's like what I ate in that store'

Akira had previously been invited by Siori to dine in a fancy restaurant. Akira's will is likely to shake greatly if she uses dishes as bait for fishing that smashed Akira's stereotypes about food at that time. We'll have to ask Alpha to try her best to stop Akira then.

Alpha talks with a light laugh.

"You're going to need to make a lot of money and be able to show your face to that store for a little while at your own expense."

"Right."

Akira replied to strengthen a little.

The look on Alpha's face becomes unwittingly harsh. Akira, who saw it, also increases her alertness at once.

"Akira. Stop by the window and check outside with the gun aimer."

"Is that a monster?

Check it out. There was a little noise. If there's no sign that even the monsters are coming this way, let them go. '

Alpha's enemies today are basically based on information obtained from Akira's information-gathering equipment. Because the range of enemies in all directions has narrowed due to the rain, Akira needs to check directly with the aimer or the like in order to closely examine certain directions.

Akira puts a gun on the side of the window (by the side) and checks outside over the aiming device. Slowly move the aiming left and right as directed by Alpha. The source of the noise was found immediately.

"Is that it? That's pretty big. '

A monster roamed away from the hall. Being a carnivore is a clear biological monster. The fur that sucked in the rain looks very heavy.

Monsters roam around looking for something. I don't see Akira and the others noticing.

'Over here......, why don't you come? I've been wandering around that area since just now, is there anything around there?

The monsters keep wandering around the same place, not approaching the Akira and the others, not saying if they want to leave.

'You're halfway there. Harassment?'

"What did I do to him?"

Caution is required but not a clear threat. Akira also answered calmly and appropriately to Alpha's light-hearted remarks to that effect.

Dale and Corbe are also checking out other windows to see what's going on outside.

Dale looks out with his naked eye, but he couldn't discover what a monster looks like. Dale asks Akira.

"Hey, did you find something?

"Oh, it's a monster. There's one pretty big guy, near the empty house over there."

Dale takes out his binoculars and sees where Akira taught him.

"... is that it? Good find. You were in the room, you weren't looking outside, were you?

"It's high performance."

Akira replied, smiling lightly. I heard that. Alpha is laughing so well.

It's Alpha that's high performance. Dale decided that was about the performance of Akira's equipment.

(… is the armpit (and) the corner, and the gear perfect? Is Cheryl's escort missing because this guy alone is enough? Could this guy be a prosthetic? What's high performance is not just information-gathering equipment, but also the performance of the prosthetic body? Does your arm deserve it, too?

Dale didn't think he was an extra strong hunter because of Akira's apparent age and atmosphere. But Akira changed her rating when she realized the monster existed earlier than she did.

(How strong is this guy? I can imagine the rewards that would be paid to this guy if I could figure that out. That way I can also imagine the assets of my client, Cheryl, to some extent... Well, maybe we'll find out when we get home)

Contrary to Dale's expectations, the opportunity to know one end of Akira's prowess soon came.

Kolbe was just like Akira, checking on the gun aimer to see what was going on outside. Corbe quickly spotted the monster Akira discovered.

Corbe's expression changed to something that included a fright, and his gun arm shivered slightly. And at the same time that the tremor stopped, the expression turns into something very dangerous. That look contained a clear hatred for the existence at the end of the gun.

Corbe pulled the trigger, driven by inner fervour. Gunshots echo in the room. The fired bullet hits the monster beautifully. But I couldn't seriously injure the monster.

A monster growls when he realizes Akira and the others exist. And the momentum ran out toward Akira and the others.

"Die! Die! Screw you!

Corbe keeps shooting at monsters while cursing them. Corbe's arm seems to be good, and all the bullets hit the monster firmly. He continued to fire in desperate shape until the monster continued to be bullet-damaged, collapsing and immobilized. And after shooting several more bullets at a monster lying on the ground, he stopped shooting with a rough breath.

The human gaze in the room is gathering in Corbe. Akira and the others are just surprised by Corbe's leopard freak, but Dale had a clear gaze of condemnation.

Blame Corbe for Dale's rather strong tone.

"Hey, why did you shoot me!

Corbe says it back in an equally strong tone.

"I know it's decided to kill you!

"You didn't notice this way!?

"Wait till you come to kill me!? Kill him while you can!

Another gunshot blocked Dale and Corbe's momentum as they were about to start a battle over words.

The Lord of the gunshots is Akira. Akira's calm voice says to Dale and Corbe looking back at Akira

"Later, please. I'll clean up the rest."

Akira says so and resumes shooting. The bullet hit another monster coming towards Akira and the others, crushing his head and letting him die.

Soon other monsters began to gather around the area where the earlier monsters roamed (yes). The monsters are aware of the presence of Akira and the monsters are attacked one after the other.

Corbe immediately joins the attack. Dale also tongued and hurried to join the attack.

Various monsters, large and small, form a herd and attack Akira and the others. A bipedal lizard. Quadrupedal beast. Six-legged walking turtle. An eight-legged horse. Some monsters look like someone made a joke out of them, and some monsters look like mechanics halfway through a sudden saddle change of existence from life to machinery one day.

Turtles with cannons and machine guns on top of the armor are slowly approaching Akira and the others.

Akira shouts her surprise when she sees the monster carrying the cannon.

"What is that!?

"That's a tortica turtle. Luckily you're still growing. The weakness is in the mouth of the gun. Don't look at me. Shoot me quickly."

Alpha manipulates Akira's fortified clothing to match Akira's positioned CWH objective assault gun to the cannon on Torchka Turtle's back. Akira immediately pulled the trigger.

Due to Alpha's immense ability to compute precision poles, the armored rounds of the CWH objective assault gun Akira fired will pop into the tortica turtle's cannon mouth. The bullet struck a shell in the process of loading the tortica turtle, causing a detonation of biological gunpowder. Torchka turtles blew from the inside out, tearing apart every nearby monster.

Akira praises Alpha when she sees tortica turtles scattered and dispersed with flesh pieces and mechanical parts.

"Brilliant. But I can't believe there are even monsters like that. Was this such a noisy ruin? Is it that much of a change because the bulimic crocodile is gone and the ecosystem has changed? And why are there so many monsters? Monsters coming here from the wilderness all over?

Akira wonders too. Nor could Alpha predict the current situation. Precisely, it had determined that the likelihood was low enough to be ignored. Alpha wouldn't have tried to get Akira closer here if she had predicted it would be dangerous so far.

But Alpha can't afford to think about the answer to that question in Akira right now, as Ra (and) are also horns. Alpha urges Akira to focus on the fight.

'Let's think about it later. If we survive, we'll have plenty of time to figure out why.'

"So is that."

Akira immediately targeted the next monster and pulled the trigger. An eight-legged horse pierced through his torso by a fully armored bullet collapses. The monster was soon crushed by a subsequent monster and desperate.

Akira and the others dominate the war. Akira with Alpha support. Dale and the others were geared up to attack nearly unseen and dangerous ruins. Naturally, there are three overpowered hunters fighting back against monsters living in the ruins of the Higaraka Residential District.

Some monsters were of a kind that did not originally live in the Higalaka Residential District ruins, but could be dealt with without problems. The highly threatening monster concentrates the firepower for the three and immediately defeats them. If you are approached somewhat by a monster of trinkets, Akira will use a DVTS minigun to scrape away the trinket.

Large quantities of bullets scattered extensively from a bunch of spinning muzzles are all firmly hit by monsters thanks to Alpha's shooting aid. I don't go as far as hitting a full bullet steeple on a boulder (that's right), but it's excessive enough to kill. Countless bullet-damaged monsters change into scattered pieces of machinery and flesh.

Dale remembered a light battle when he saw Akira play.

(Strong! Even if I look at the amount of this monster, I process it calmly without panic or noise. The shooting arm is top notch. Do you also have a good knowledge of the weakness areas of the monster? You're defeating the Torchka Turtle in one blow, and you're certain to discern the monster that should be defeated first. considerable skill)

Near Akira is the figure of Corbe, who continues to shoot with a cheerful look as he curses at monsters. For this reason, Dale had a remarkable look at Akira fighting with a look that she could even feel spared without slapping (just) her mouth in vain.

Akira's shooting arm was supported by Alpha. What Akira is showing her spare face is that she has fought a larger herd of monsters before and a sign of confidence in Alpha's support. And Akira's vain mouth is talking to Alpha in a nutshell, so it just doesn't sound like Dale.

Dale doesn't know that. For this reason, Dale overestimated Akira. Its external partially correct assessment of Akira and the discrepancy between Akira's strength alone will continue to carry a lot of trouble to Akira.

Cheryl was watching the fight behind Akira and the others. It keeps room in this situation and even smiles (cheeks). In contrast to the other children who are frightened (babbling) by this battle, to the shooting echoing in the room, to the roaring (howling) of monsters that can be heard all the way inside the room, to the corbe who keeps yelling in a semi-frequent way at the looming monsters that can be seen outside the window.

Seeing how Elio is doing with that Cheryl, he asks terribly for help.

"Come on, come on, come on, come on, you're gonna be okay, right?

"It's okay. Calm down."

Cheryl answers and smiles at Elio. Cheryl's expression has no shards of fear.

After seeing how Cheryl was settling by the unnatural, Elio also regained some calm. Speak as Elio tells himself.

"Oh yeah! Akira is strong!

"That's right. So calm down, both of you. It's okay."

Cheryl smiles at the other men. Seeing what that Cheryl looked like, the rest of my men regained some calm.

Cheryl's men tell each other to misdemonize their fears.

"Oh, right. The boss is so calm, and he's fine."

Is that all Akira is? Maybe it is. "

"And don't be so calm for good. Do you have the strength to be the boss?"

"I knew Akira was Akira, and the boss was the boss."

Sometimes (occasionally) a bullet pops into the room from outside the window. Every time the children sheltering in the corner of the room are screaming. But only Cheryl wasn't moving.

Somewhere on the inside, those who had belittled Cheryl had seen what Cheryl looked like and revalued Cheryl. That was not Cheryl's proxy for Akira or his connecting role, but a cut that was recognized as purely the boss of the Watchman Party.

Cheryl is unnaturally calm because of her blind faith in Akira and some kind of giving up. Cheryl has been helped by Akira ever since that day when she asked Akira for help and Akira responded to it.

Even now Akira is helping Cheryl out of a swarm of monsters that strike. That was a great relief to Cheryl. Cheryl didn't care at all whether that relief was close to overdosing sedatives, whether that involved side effects close to drugs, or whether Cheryl herself was aware of it.

The blind faith and the outlook shapes Cheryl today. Unless Akira is lost from Cheryl, that won't change in the future.

The war situation keeps Akira and the others in the vanguard. Akira and the others will first destroy monsters with Ranged Attacks. Destroy artillery and machine-gun monsters like Torchka Turtles and take away at least their means of attack. When you blow the head off a bipedal lizard with both arms on it, the gun that lost control keeps rampaging and shooting and engaging the surrounding monsters.

Next, defeat strong monsters on the sides of weapons and biological weapons. Monsters who attempt to attack humans mechanically or instinctively without any concern for the difference in power from their enemies. The violence of the number of flocks is overshadowed by the number of barrages, and the monsters that have already been defeated are pinched from the front with bullets and from the back with subsequent monsters, causing them to lose their original form one after the other.

At the end of those clean-ups, the remaining monsters, autonomous weapons smart enough to account for the difference in power, and flora and fauna close to wildlife fleeing for fear, gradually left the scene.

It stopped raining at some point. There were no more moving monsters, and the battle between Akira and the others came to an end.

Akira and the others have no casualties. The results can be described as good. Except for ammunition consumed in large quantities and the cost of that ammunition.

Alpha smiles at Akira after work.

"Good day. You've been able to settle down and deal with a herd of that size all the time, and you're doing great."

"It's smaller than it was before, and it's better equipped than it was then. It must be something like this. '

"Normally, that's a sign of growth. I'm happy, too."

Akira, praised by Alpha, loosened her expression a little happily. Alpha had closely observed that Akira's reaction.

Dale exhales gently. As the sense of the end of the battle spread through Dale and the relief (mostly) replaced the tension, anger gradually crept up.

Dale turns to the one who caused the spearhead of his anger.

"Corbe! This is all your fault! This fight would have been avoided if you hadn't shot it yourself!

"Oh!? What's wrong with a hunter killing a monster!

Corbe, who had not awakened the excitement of the battle, said back in a strong tone. It was going to be in a one-touch state as it was, but things changed quickly.

Corbe suddenly loses momentum and falls deep. And I apologize for the dark depressing look on my face.

"... sorry.... annoyed me"

Dale is baffled and greatly discouraged by Corbe's sudden apology as if he were someone else.

"... I was scared.... I was terrified. … so when I realized I was shooting"

Corbe told me why he shot him on his own. Akira asks a little strangely.

"Are you scared of that monster? Sure, it was a bit of a big one, but with all that distance away, and that gun skill, I don't think it's even that scary."

Unlike Akira, who has Alpha support, Corbe was letting himself firmly hit all bullets. Even in the battle that followed, Corbe fought resolutely without pulling his leg. I didn't think Akira had that much strength to scare that much of a monster.

Corbe looks at Akira chills and starts telling her why.

"... I had the experience of being eaten by monsters before. Luckily my life was saved, but they ate both arms. I still dream sometimes."

Ask Kolbe, who looks at his arms with a distorted expression, with Akira's slightly painful expression.

"That arm, the prosthetic hand?

"My left arm is. The right arm was cured with regenerative treatment. I really wanted both arms to be treated for regeneration, but I didn't have any money. I also want to cure my left arm, but I also have the cost of maintenance on my prosthetic arm, which is hard.... so he looked a little like the monster that ate my arm"

Akira has the experience of putting an arm in a monster's mouth and shooting a gun from the inside out and knocking it down. Had it been delayed in defeating him, Akira's arms would have been eaten away too. Tomorrow we will be. Akira became a little scared imagining and sympathetic to Corbe, who went through that imagination.

Corbe bows his head deep again.

"... bad anyway. Sorry."

Dale was deeply apologetic after the momentum was cut, and he couldn't lower his swung fist.

Akira is praised by Alpha and in a good mood and sympathetic to Corbe. I'm just going to move on and let this go.

"Well, that's all I took down. There won't be any more monsters around. He was able to defeat the monsters that might have attacked us on our way home, in our favor. It's not all bad talk. It rained more than that. I want to leave immediately."

Dale gets confirmation from Akira.

"Guiba and one of you guys aren't back, are you?

"Get in touch with me right away and call me back. I'm sorry, but I want to prioritize Cheryl's safety. There's a chance that other monsters will come by again after being caught in that pile of bodies. I'm not willing to wait or go looking for you until you get back even if I haven't heard from you. If you say wait for them and stay here, do as you please. I'll send Cheryl and the others to the city, and then I'll pick them up again."

Dale retrieves the information terminal and tries to get in touch with the Geuber. I don't want to connect to the city's network, but the rain stops, so if it's in the same building, I can get in touch.

If you haven't been able to get in touch with Guiba, he thinks you'll have to leave Dale as well. Look for someone who might be dead, and Dale won't be left behind. If the monster ate you to death, there's no guarantee that the body is still there. Dale can't afford to explore the ruins of Higalaka's residential neighborhood by looking for someone who's nowhere else.

Dale's worries soon disappeared. Because the Gyuba and the others are back in the room.

The frustration that we fought an unnecessary battle has not disappeared from Dale's midst. Dale hits the gibberish.

"Giuba! Where the hell did you do this shit when you were busy!

Speaks with a giggle as Guiba misdemonizes.

"Take it easy. Looks like they were attacking you too."

"You too?

"We were attacked, too. I did something about it. Then I noticed the rain stopped and came back in a hurry. I told you we'd leave as soon as it stopped raining. Could he have left me?

Guiba listened back without looking bad. Dale answers grumpy.

"... Hmm. If you don't come back."

"Come on, that's cruel."

Guiba replied with a laugh. Even though he was about to be left behind, there was no discomfort in his expression.

Then Akira and the others quickly got ready to move away from the building. He left the Higalaka Residential District ruins as it was and continued to run in the wilderness for the Kugamayama city.

There are several small cylindrical objects rolling around the site of the Higalaka Residential District ruins, where that first of a bunch of monsters Akira and the others engaged were roaming. That's an enemy drone that Dale should have lost.

The monsters that Akira and the others defeated were tempted by this device.
