Rebuild World

129 Additional troops

Kanae talks to Akira, who seems a little upset because of Alpha.

"Akira boy! I see you again!

"... right"

Akira replied in a tone she didn't feel too comfortable with, but Kanae continues the conversation without worrying.

"Nevertheless, it seems odd that the Akira boy should come and help us. Anyway, you wanted us to accompany you from the beginning. Isn't that saving you a lot of trouble?

"It's like a coincidence that I'm here. I didn't come into the Selantarville to help you. Ask Shikarabe what's going on around here."

"Do you? Well, thanks anyway."

Kanae somehow looks at Akira with a rather interesting and favorable eye. Akira, on the other hand, looks at Kanae with a slightly surprised (much) look. Because Akira doesn't know Kanae's attitude.

Kanae has no hesitation in filling the distance from the others in one way or another. Akira is alert to the opponent who inadvertently fills the distance, and the two had a lot of unfamiliar air.

Kanae had a strong interest in Akira's prowess. Because Kanae can't measure Akira's strength again.

According to what I heard, Akira crossed each other in the basement of the ruins of Kuzsuhara Street with Siori using trump cards. The dedicated accelerator, Siori's trump card, increases the concentration of the user, sharpens the senses and even causes a time-sensitive contradiction as if time had slowed. If used more often as a price, it would be the feather to faint for a few days because of the overload on the brain, but until the effect time runs out, it can achieve movement like someone else's. Those who fought each other with that Siori are undoubtedly quite powerful.

But when Akira confronted the Katsuya and the others about the girl she suspected of being a pickpocket, she said that she ended up pulling back amazingly despite all the killing. Kanae left that place with Raina and the others, so it's just a story I heard (one after another) about the situation that followed, but Katsuya said she never turned over the girl to Akira and Akira gave in to Katsuya and walked away silently.

Katsuya is certainly an excellent hunter. However, it is inferior when compared to Siori using an accelerator. If Akira gave in silently to the katsuya, her strength would be no big deal either.

Akira, along with Shikarabe and the others, had reached near the room where Raina and the others were caged. Judging by the sight of the aisle that Kanae saw as he headed up the stairs with Raina and the others, it should have been quite a feud until Akira and the others reached the room. Then Akira will be strong enough.

There is that Akira in front of Kanae. Kanae prides herself on seeing her opponent's strengths through so much. Akira's strength in Kanae's eyes is to such an extent that she is a pretty strong hunter for her age. I mean, not big and strong. From Akira, I can't feel the air, the temper, or the awesome things emitted by the powerful. There are only a handful of hunters in the east.

Both the grounds for judging him as a considerable powerful man and the grounds for judging him as no big deal were (about) in Akira, and Kanae was satisfied with both grounds. Therefore, Akira's strength could not be measured.

Kanae deserves Akira's strength with a laugh of fun.

(I don't know. Is Akira boy strong or weak at all, refreshing? To clarify Akira Boy's strength, I'd like to give it a try, but I can't test it in the current situation on a boulder.)

I don't know what they're capable of. That was scratching Kanae's interest in Akira.

Now we have a situation where Kanae has boulders (just as well) to prioritize their work. I mean, if things were different, I might have tried. Kanae was a little sorry.

Rayna and Togami, who were quite depleted physically and mentally, were gradually (like) gaining room by calming down and breathing in a relatively safe place. When they could afford to turn their consciousness to the surrounding situation, Rayna and Togami were orienting their nature and gaze towards subjects of concern respectively.

Raina's gaze goes to Carol. Togami's gaze goes to Siori and Kanae. Technically to their respective outfits.

Rayna looks at Carol's fortified clothes and thinks.

(... what, those fortified clothes? A lot of awesome outfits, or designs that are inviting men, no matter how you look at them. I've heard that old world-made fortified clothing also has a substitute for that hand design, but this is the first time I've actually seen someone wearing it. Modern products that only made the design look like it? Or a remodel of an old world relic? Either way, you can wear that one a lot. Is that a matter of getting used to it? There's also a lot of great eating..., it just looks that way because of design?

Rayna was looking at Carol's fortified clothes as she reinforced her confusion.

Togami looks at Siori and Kanae's maid clothes and thinks.

(... That's the one with the maid clothes, right? That's the maid, right? It would be something the rich would hire to make them do housework or something in a big house, wouldn't it? Why is that maid in the ruins of the old world? Those maid clothes are relics of the old world, and they're just hunters wearing protective clothes instead because they're sturdy? But something tells me you're used to wearing made-up clothes, or you don't feel like a hunter. The rescue target Sikarabe said was supposed to be a hunter belonging to Drancam, but... no, that's about a guy named Rayna, and the two maid clothes look like they're taking care of him.... Why are hunters hiring maids?

Togami watched Siori and Kanae as he reinforced his confusion.

Siori recommended a drink to help her regain strength on Raina's side (buckwheat). Raina was thanking Siori and drinking it.

Siori is aware of Togami's gaze, but he didn't particularly care. Siori also understands that her outfit is a little attention-grabbing. And as a maid with raina, it's not as important as curiosity from others.

Carol had eaten a portable meal that resembled baked sweets since she was ready to start over. It looks like just a snack at first glance, but in addition to the effects of simple fatigue recovery, it also serves as a healing medicine for trauma. It also replenishes the nanomachines consumed in battle. It's as important to Carol as loading a bullet.

Carol is noticing Rayna's gaze, but she didn't particularly care. Carol's fortified clothes are especially designed to attract men strongly, but they also don't attract women's gaze. Some women are not immune to the old world-style design of this hand and look at it with no offense. Some women don't like that hunters in these fortified clothes are nearby. That's how Carol understands it. Whatever Rayna's insides are, it's harmless unless she puts it in her mouth and says a mess. That's what Carol had in mind.

To Togami, where Kanae's gaze was looking at himself, to Siori, where that Togami is now looking, to Raina, who is on its side of Siori (by its side), to Carol, where that Raina is looking, in turn.

Kanae laughs invincibly and joyfully somewhere, laughing and talking to Carol.

You look amazing!

Akira is amazed. I jerked off. Akira now felt firmly that she had exactly the same feelings as a few of us.

Carol looks at Kanae with a little surprise. Somehow, because Kanae didn't look like a person who cared about that.

Carol replies with an invincible smile.

"I don't deny it, but I don't want the guy in the outfit to tell me."

Akira nodded unconsciously. You too. Once again, we did feel exactly the same way as a few of us.

Kanae laughs and argues.

"This is just a made-up outfit. I don't care what you think, I have a lot of trouble getting it to go with the design enhancement clothes that I'm inviting. I don't care how you look at it, it stands out. Are you used to all this?

Carol laughs and argues.

"There will be a number of combat clothes with similar performance, but I don't want to be told by the owner of the feeling of coming to the ruins of the old world in made-to-measure clothing with performance that can withstand battle. I don't know whose maid, but you didn't think it would stand out? Or is that your hobby?

Kanae and Carol are laughing at each other. It's not the air of bickering, but I don't feel the air of being hostile, tenacious, selling fights.

As Akira looks at the two with a subtle look on her face, suddenly Kanae asks Akira's face.

"What does Akira boy think?

Suddenly Akira is told the story and confused, Carol asks Akira the same.

"Right. What do you think of Akira? Which outfit do you think stands out more?

Akira asks the two of them for now.

"... why are you asking me?

Kanae and Carol answer as if they had even had a meeting in advance.

"Isn't that something? I'll do something."

"It's nothing good. Somehow."

Akira turns her gaze around. There were figures of Elena and Sarah laughing with pleasure. Shikarabe has a look that doesn't matter. Raina and Togami are interested in Akira's answer. Siori was holding back on Raina's side (by her side) with a strange face.

Answer your own thoughts, even though Akira feels an atmosphere she doesn't quite understand.

"Personally, I was more surprised by the look of your maid's clothes if it felt like it at first sight. Carol's fortified clothing is only designed with a pointy old world-style design, and the range of clothes that hunters wear in the ruins of the old world (Hanchoo). … a boulder maid is not something you would see in a ruin in the old world, either as an outfit or as a profession."

Akira's opinion was largely influenced by the feeling that she had become accustomed to seeing Alpha's various outfits, which are likely quite out of line with the views of boys of general age. In the evidence, Raina and Togami had a slightly unexpected look on their face.

I got Akira's opinion, and Carol smiled like she was a little proud for some reason. Kanae, on the other hand, shakes his head lightly beside him with a hand gesture that he says he doesn't understand, and then tells Akira with a smile (cheeks) that some skilled person turns to the beginner.

"The Akira boy doesn't seem to know the size of the world yet."

Akira answers flatly.

"Oh. I lived in a narrow world. Sorry."

Elena speaks to Akira and the others with a little laugh.

"It's time to leave, but if you can afford to chat like that, you can assume you're ready?

Akira answers by putting her expression back into something serious.

"It's okay. You can always go."

"You can always do it."

When Kanae answers so well, she returns to the bottom of Raina.

Answer as Carol follows that Kanae figure with her eyes.

"No problem."

Carol looked at Kanae with a slightly questionable gaze.

(... she seemed to have signs she was trying to find something, but was it her fault? It's just a character to say and do things like that? Her people don't look particularly concerned either...)

Some people have that personality. That's how Carol concluded and broke off any further thoughts.

Siori whispers caution against returning Canae.

"I don't know what you're thinking, but be careful what you do to sprinkle the seeds of the extra things."

Answer in a whisper, in a tone that Kanae doesn't care about at all.

"Well, isn't that good? I'll just say instead that your daughter cared a lot. You can't do this, young lady. If you look at a hunter you're not even close to, you can't help but mistake him for selling a fight.

Reject Kanae as Raina seems dissatisfied.

"... I don't want the Kanae to tell me what they want me to say. Isn't that the kind of thing that sells fighting?

Kanae responds with an invincible smile.

"I have no problem with people buying fights. That's the difference between you and your daughter. Look, lady, I don't think you're kidding, but since we're escorting you, we'll figure something out, and you think it's okay to get on with it a little bit, so you didn't just stare at them, did you? Conscious, unconscious?

Raina gets stuck in words. I didn't mean to do that to Raina, but when asked if it was the result of an unconscious reliance on the two of them, I couldn't clearly deny it.

Siori exhales gently and then tells Kanae.

"It's good, so don't imitate. If it's too much, I'm gonna slap it."

Roger that.

Kanae responded well. It was difficult to judge from Kanae's character whether it meant refraining from extra imitation or tolerating engagement with Siori. Siori avoided pursuing it, at least because Kanae stopped opening his extra mouth any further.

Kanae looks at Akira for a moment, conceiving in silence.

(... I tried to surprise Akira Boy by saying that I didn't even have a thump to try, but you normally neglected the perimeter vigilance. I was quite alarmed during the chat. Akira boy's strength, after all, is no big deal? Or is that attitude deceptive? Or the type that has a sharp discrepancy between normal times and in battle? Hmm, you're lacking decision-makers)

Kanae slightly lowered her rating for Akira while coming up with that idea. Because now was the best result of confirmation by Kanae herself, not hearsay or speculation.

Something that can more clearly and reliably measure Akira's strength without a doubt. Kanae laughed invincibly, hoping it would happen.

Explain what Elena is going to do to the Akira and the others who are ready.

"We're going to get down to the first floor and get out of the front entrance. Expect the troops surrounding the Selantarville to be still alive."

Sikarabe asks, perceiving disturbing signs from Elena's explanation.

"Is there an unclear element that we must expect the troops to survive?

Elena nods lightly and responds.

"I do. You know I've been putting in a small installation-based information-gathering device to confirm the exit route? It's also located near the entrance and exit on the ground floor. There was a reaction to that. It's possible that a large number of things came into the building."

Carol asks Elena.

"Don't you know exactly what shape stuff came in?

If something of it is the size or shape of a human, it is likely to be another hunter. That's what Carol thought and asked, but Elena replies by shaking her neck lightly to the side.

"Unfortunately, it's not such a high-performance device originally, and with less performance than usual on top of that, I don't know that far. Something came into the building. That's all I can say for sure. I said a lot of things, but I just don't think that the same individual is intentionally increasing their response by wandering around the same place over and over again, and technically the details of the number are unknown."

Akira asks Elena.

"Don't you mean a leading unit like us, or a succeeding main unit?

"It could be enough. In that case, maybe an additional advance unit. I don't think you're going to let the squad in without waiting for its return, even though you sent out scouts around the corner. Either way, I want you to be properly aware that you are more likely to encounter other hunters than us. Be careful not to misidentify them as enemies and attack them."

"Okay."

Akira was honestly nodding. Elena smiled and gave it back to Akira slightly satisfied.

Elena speaks with her expression back to something serious.

"The problem would be if it wasn't either of them. I mean, if a new mechanical monster breaks in from outside the building. That would mean that some of the troops surrounding the building were torn down. There's a chance that outside the building is no longer a safe zone. I think it's unlikely. But just keep that possibility in the corner of your head. I don't know what's going to happen. I'm pretty sure the situation just keeps going."

Elena told Akira and the others to push in case she was attacked by a mechanical monster about the same size as the aisle on the thirtieth floor.

"If I don't have any questions, I'm leaving. Questions?"

Akira and the others return the silence of the air that brought them closer to the battle. Elena snorts and gives instructions to leave.

"Let's go"

Under Elena's command, Akira and the others resumed their escape from the Serantalville.

On the ground floor of the Serantaru building, the two hunters' troops continued to confront each other in a non-engaged state. It is a unit made up of hunters belonging to Drancam and others. They are both formed units around hunters who have successfully crusaded the bounty neck.

In the midst of very rubbing (and) negotiations for the formation of a large unit for the control of the Serantarbil, Akira and the others just left as advance units after completing their negotiations independently. There were two major forces that determined that Akira and the others had outrun it.

One of the forces is the hunters who did not belong to Drancam and were reluctant to come under its command. They judged Akira and the others' actions to be those of Drancam's side. Using Drancam's track record of sending troops ahead to bring back useful information for operational operations, he is trying to take advantage of negotiations with the Kugamayama city. That's what I decided.

The decision is not a mistake. It is true that Sikarabe used that as an excuse in negotiations inside Drancam. The information Akira and the others brought home will be used exactly as it is.

To counter it, they also decided to send forward advance troops by partially compromising on the content of the negotiations, which they had been rubbing (also) internally.

Another force is the young hunters of Drancam, known as the Katyas. It is the decision of Mizha, the Drunkam executive, who is also the shield behind it precisely.

Mizha expressed concern that the captains of Akira and the others were ostensibly Shikarabe. Mizha also knows very well that Shikarabe hates Katsuya harshly. Doesn't Sikarabe intend to use the achievements of the advance troops to mouth the formation of the main unit, especially with regard to the treatment of Katsuya? That's what Mizha decided.

Mizha made some compromises to negotiate formation against Shikarabe, but they decided to send advance troops as well.

In order to counter the merits of the advance units, both units had as their operational purpose the suppression of the first floor of the Serantar building. It is difficult for a small group like Akira and the others, but we decided that the size and equipment of our own troops would be sufficient. It is also important to gather information, but if the information obtained overlaps with the information obtained by the advance forces, it is more advantageous for the Akira and the others who brought it back.

The two troops, not enough to point the gun at each other but definitely think of each other as disturbing, and hostile enough to possibly turn into a flashy state of engagement in a few accidents. Each troop leader had contained the outburst by controlling the crew.

Outside the Serantaru building, in the area close to the entrance and exit, a hunter named Crosava commands his men with a troublesome look. The equipment and atmosphere are different from other hunters. At first glance I can tell they are hunters of character.

Klosawa is the leader of a hunter team that destroyed the multiple-installed gun Maimai, a 1.5 billion orum prize neck. This time he was tasked with captaining the troops of the hunters on the anti-Drancam side.

Clothawa looks at the clock and strikes his tongue.

"... Squad Six isn't coming back. I thought you said punctuality. Hey, get Squad 8 out on the search. Let the guys securing stairs A, B, C and D see if Squad Six has climbed upstairs on their own."

My buddy Hunter answers.

"Aren't you going to be back in a little while?

Crosava answers with a slightly harsher gaze.

"We haven't been able to confirm the enemy shadow on the ground floor. There are three elements of delay. Have you found yourself in such a peculiar situation that it would be difficult to return, incompetent to calculate your return time, or fools who do not follow my instructions? Treat any of them as non-returned. I wouldn't bother waiting."

"Okay. Let him check right away..., he's back."

Six squad hunters are coming out of the entrance and exit of the Serantalville. Clothawa gives them instructions to come this way with his fingers. When the hunters of the six squads come forward, they ask them in disgust.

"From what I've seen, there doesn't seem to be one injury (injury), but where were you dying?

Six squad leaders hunter answers the snooze.

"I tried to get back early and the kid got involved. If it's okay to shoot that kid, he's back on time."

"Where?

"It's the C7 passage."

Klosawa tongues again when he hears that, giving instructions with his hands to the hunters of the sixth squad to take a break, then walks towards the Force Leader on the Drancam side, who is a short distance away.

The captain on Drunkham's side noticed Clothawa approaching soon. The young hunters near its captain turn a hostile gaze at Crosava. Crosava speaks to the captain's boy on Drancam's side in a grumpy voice with no regard at all.

"There's a kid on the other side, can you keep it on? You're on your own to play on that side, but you can do the whole thing on that side."

Answer as the boy tries to intimidate Kurosawa.

"I'm sorry if that's true. And don't be ridiculous like that. We're all serious."

The boy's temper and temper are already from one end of the hunter. It draws a line with the rushing hunters and hunter breakdowns there. A hunter with the strength of a battle would spot that strength without being confused by the age of a boy or something.

Klosawa also discerns the boy's strength. I can tell by the fact that the boy in front of me has considerable talent and strength. Now, as a young hunter, I still feel that it is only a matter of time before the part of the young hunter disappears.

The boy in front of him will all be stronger than he is. But sooner or later, Not now. Klosawa answers the boy still in the lower realm with disdain and ridicule for his tone and expression.

"I'm not kidding. That's what happens when you take it seriously. I'm not a hunter with Drunkham. I just don't need to ask you how you're feeling and pick a word. Katsuya from Drunkham?

The captain on Drancam's side was katsuki.

Katsuya was getting stronger, but Kurosawa didn't care at all.
