Rebuild World

149 Training the Elios

Akira was still spending time in Cheryl's own room today.

Cheryl and the others were set to match the artifact sale for the moment. The room for the sale of artifacts is not open due to the battle between Akira and the Raiders. Many relics of the old world have been hit by bullets and are no longer for sale. It will be much later to reopen the relic dealership.

Akira was supposed to show her face at Cheryl's base for a while, but that's for security when selling relics. In that sense, there's no need for Akira to face the base while Cheryl and the others are off selling artifacts.

Still, Akira is in Cheryl's room to keep Cheryl and the others from getting upset. The upset caused by the attack on the base has not yet disappeared from Cheryl and the others.

Akira is the only one in Cheryl's room. Cheryl teaches his men to read, write, etc. in another room. Akira had taken Alpha classes, played previous games and trained in overlooking (fuzzy) behavior.

Akira answers because there was a knock on the door.

It's open.

It was Elio and Alicia who opened the door and came in. Akira tells the two of them.

"Cheryl's not here. You must be in a room for class."

Elio and Alicia look at each other once, and there was some sort of determination on their faces. Later, Elio decides to tell Akira.

"No, Mr. Akira needs me."

"To me? What?"

Elio tells Akira with a serious look.

"I want us to train."

Akira hears more from Elio and the others. The point was that we wanted to get combat training from Akira so that we could respond to some degree ourselves in case something like the last raid happened again.

If you are a hunter as strong as Akira, it could be quite easy to train someone. That's what Elio and the others thought and came to ask Akira for the role of instructor.

Of course, I can't imitate Akira like that. Say it's a hassle and say no. Alpha pinches her mouth when Akira thinks so.

'I'm not saying it's impossible, but if you think it's either good, why don't you take it?

Either that or the Alpha will stop. Akira, who thought so, asks back a little strangely.

'... I don't mind if Alpha says so, but why?

'Cause if they can defend themselves to some extent, then Akira won't have to pack them here either.'

The odds are low, but Alpha decided to lightly take the lead so Akira wouldn't have to worry about Cheryl and reside at the base.

More power on Cheryl's part would also reduce Akira's burden. It would also be Akira's handkerchief if Elio and the others could fight that much. More hand pawns may also reduce the chances of going to the ruins with people like Elena and Sarah who greatly influence Akira's decisions in the future. Akira would also be relatively easy to abandon if anything happened to Elio and the others. That's what Alpha decided.

"And it will also be Akira's training. You've done this before, haven't you?

Akira sounds surprised when she remembers what happened at the Higaraka Residential District site.

'Are you all right? It's gonna be weird like before again...'

'It's okay. Even if you go somewhere, it's the nearby wilderness of the city. And Akira's arm shrivels when she's just caged in her room. We've just been raided the other day, and Akira should get used to some more interpersonal combat.'

"I say I'm a little self-absorbed, but my opponents will be training for my interpersonal combat with these guys?

'I'll do a lot of things around here, so it's okay. Although I'm a little prepped. "

"Well, if that's the case, I get it"

"It's settled."

Akira listens lightly to Alpha explain the contents of the preparation. Answer Elio later.

"Okay. I'm just gonna be a little prepped, okay? Later?

Elio thanks Akira in surprise.

"Is it good!? Oh, thanks!

"Thank you. I'll sit down!

Alicia also thanked Akira and laughed happily when she saw Elio.

Akira speaks with a slightly strange look at the joy of the two.

"I'm going out for a minute. If Cheryl comes back in the meantime, tell her I went to Katsuragi on business. Explain the training story at last. Tell me about the number of people who will be trained later."

"Okay!

Alicia answered well.

Akira was leaning (scratching) her neck a little without knowing why Elio and Alicia would be so happy, but she left the room without any further concern.

Two people hug each other in the room where Elio and Alicia are the only ones left.

He repelled eight armed raiders by himself, sold the raider's survival to a gold lender, and shot those who didn't like to be sold to death without hesitation. Elio and the others succeeded in making him take on the favor without compromising the mood of such a man. I should be happy enough for Elio and the others.

Akira is definitely strong. If we could learn combat technology from that Akira, maybe the Elios could be as strong as Akira.

In Akira and Elio, there is also a difference in equipment. But even when Akira was poorly equipped, she was strong enough to come back alive with the bodies of enemy constituents in hostile Slam Street strongholds. Apart from the gear, you are likely to be as strong as Akira. That's what Elio and the others thought.

Talk as Elio hugs Alicia.

"... I'm going to work hard and be strong. Just so I can protect Alicia."

Alicia smiles happily and talks.

"Thank you, Elio"

Elio was dying in that raid. Sometimes the equipment was more favoured than the others, as a result of attempts to intercept raiders along with fellow combatants. The result is serious injury. I ran into a rash payback. It's just a coincidence that Elio didn't die instantly among the dead.

Alicia was taking Ellio's medication to recover from Akira. Thanks to this, Elio survived in a hard way. Cheryl and the others have eight final deaths. If Alicia hadn't killed her lover, she might have saved another one. Alicia felt guilty about it, but had no regrets.

Ellio, who thought he couldn't help anymore, had thought of Alicia just before his consciousness was about to disappear. When he regained consciousness, Elio saw Alicia holding herself and crying, and decided to be all ready.

Alicia learned that her dying lover was more prepared to keep Alicia out of the same sight than she was dying, and at the same time she was just as prepared as Elio to be happy about it.

Where are we now? The two embraces, about which was being driven to the corner of consciousness, lasted until Cheryl, back in the room, looked at the two and gave them a surprising look.

Akira is talking to Katsuragi at a moving store in Katsuragi.

I answer with a slightly unexpected look when I hear about the order from Akira.

"I know what the order is. It's off the merchandise I deal with, but, well, there's me and you. I'll keep the order."

"I asked. Include the cost in Cheryl's gear."

The snail speaks in disgust.

"Wait a minute. That would be a different fee."

"Training gear doesn't make any difference to Cheryl's gear."

"Dude. That being said..."

Akira asks the reluctant cuttlefish.

"Speaking of which, how much are we going to squeeze out of those raiders?

"Yeah, all right, I'll include the price, and I'll make the shipping go faster. That was a good deal."

The cuttlefish answered quickly. I guess you don't want to tell me the exact amount. Akira's question seems to have become a sort of threat.

Akira talks a little silly.

"... I didn't know how much money the snail was going to make (anymore), but can I make that money (already) from selling serious (decent) gear at the right price?

The snail giggles and answers.

"Of course. I'm in real business. I don't imitate the difference by misdemonizing it (sesame seeds). Cheryl's going to be my real customer on this one, too. Business comes first in credit. Don't worry.... don't worry. I don't want to trade your lover for fraud. I don't want you to chase me to the end of the earth."

Depending on the interpretation, if Cheryl doesn't have a position as Akira's lover or a back shield, it's like saying it's a fluke. Akira sends a slightly distrustful gaze to the snail.

Katsuragi changes the subject to distract Akira.

"By the way, I'm hoping it's time to bring in the relics of the old world again, but what's going on around there?

"I'm in the process of sourcing new gear with my previous earnings now. It's not until we update our gear that we go to the ruins of the old world to find artifacts. Afterwards."

The snail speaks displeasure.

"So buy some from me."

Akira answers flatly.

"Then get your gear ready to sell to Cheryl and the others. If that reputation was high enough for me to want to change my store, I'd think about it a little bit."

Just think. Probably dismissed after thinking about it. Akira thinks so. Katsuragi also realizes that she is not going to change it unless there is so much going on with Akira.

"I guess you bring the artifact right to me, huh?

"That depends on the type of relic in the old world you got. Pray it's a kind of relic that's going to sell high at the snail."

"It's good, isn't it? Don't imitate that if you don't sell it at Cheryl's, you can bring it to me.

"I'm not going to imitate anything like that while selling it to a snail is faster and more expensive."

Cuttlefish exhale.

"... ha. A little while ago, you were just a strong kid, and you're starting to look like a hunter."

"Thank you."

In contrast to the cuttlefish, Akira laughed a little happily.

Elio and the others are waiting for Akira outside Slam Street. Today is the day to get combat training from Akira. Eight boys, including Elio, were waiting for Akira with a slightly nervous look.

A boy asks Elio.

"Hey, what do you do for training today?

The other kids we train with also see Elio. Elio answers them.

"No, I don't either"

The boy asks with a little surprise and confusion.

"You don't know, Elio asked Mr. Akira to train you, right? Why don't you know?"

"Shut up. I don't know anything I don't. Sure, I'm the one who asked Mr. Akira to train, but I didn't even decide what the training was about and ask him to do it. After that, my boss just told me to wait here."

Another boy asks Elio.

"Heard that? Elio went to Mr. Akira with Alicia and asked her to train Mr. Akira directly without talking to the boss, right? Like the boss's mood, you were okay?

"I'm fine. Mr. Akira gave me permission, and if it was me and Alicia who asked for it, the boss shouldn't care a lot. For once, Alicia and I are supposed to be standing in the boss's side. That's why I'm fine.... maybe."

A boy rushes out to Elio, who answers with a little less confidence.

"Maybe what!? Hey, I guess you're all right!? We wouldn't be dumped in the wilderness!?

Elio yells and answers.

"Shut up! If you don't like that, get seriously trained! If you don't get some serious training from us, they'll kill you both from Akira and Cheryl!

"Okay, I get it."

The boy slipped back to Ellio's anger, who was nervous and distracted.

Elio thinks he's gained a little momentum. Elio is also making a lot of preparations, but that's not all he can take with his normal heart.

Cheryl was thinking of something with a slightly more rugged face when Elio and Alicia explained the situation to Cheryl. Although it was good because Akira took on Elio's favor without reluctance, if not, our position might have been rather unpleasant (first). That's what Elio was judging.

Elio doesn't know what Cheryl thinks about this one. At least Cheryl was smiling as usual this morning. Elio wished and prayed that the smile (cheeks) meant well.

When it's time for the rendezvous, Akira shows up in the car towing the carrier. Then point to the carrier and instruct Elio and the others.

"Get in."

Ask Akira, whom Elio fears.

"Duh, where are you going?

It's a place to drive all the way. Is it far? Wouldn't the destination be another Higalaka residential area ruin? Or is it a near-field wilderness? Yeah, think about it a lot. Elios and the others increase tension. It may not be a very dangerous place for Akira, who is a hunter, but it's a place of enough life for Elio and the others.

Answer Elio's question that Akira hasn't answered very well.

"Around there."

Akira has an attitude of getting on with Elio and the others. Elio and the others got onto the carrier with a little agitation. Wherever you're going, you don't have a choice not to ride the Ellios.

Akira pulls over in the wilderness, a short distance from the city. This is where rocks, debris, collapsing walls are scattered. So I got out of the car with Elio and the others.

Akira carries a larger box from the carrier and places it in front of the aligned Elios. Inside the box were guns used in training and things like goggles. This is a training gear that Akira bought from Katsuragi's store.

Akira explains to Elio and the others.

"Take off the one with your own gun and put it all on the carrier. Get your guns and goggles out of the box and equip them, respectively. One gun at a time. There are two magazines per person. The goggles may not fit the size a bit, but put them on patiently. I'll explain later."

Elio and the others take their share out of the box as they were told. One boy tries to take another magazine when he realizes the contents of the magazine are empty. But the magazine was also empty. Instead, the magazine was all empty.

Ask Akira if the boy is scared.

"Um, the magazine is all empty..."

"Oh. It's fine in the sky. Never mind. Take two."

That's what Akira normally told me, so Ellio and the others geared up as they were told, wondering.

Elio and the others are ready and aligned sideways. Akira, equipped with the same gun and goggles as Elio and the others, stands forward and explains the training.

"It's about the training, but it's easy to do. Have them all fight me over there. It's an AAH assault gun modified for training, and the magazine is empty, but okay. When I pull the trigger, ballistic calculations or something are made from the direction of the muzzle, etc., so that if I really shot him, I could tell if he was hitting me. Try pointing a gun at each other and pull the trigger."

Elio and the others pull the trigger, puzzled but with empty guns pointed at those nearby. Then the sight of the person who was determined to have been shot was dyed red. A goggle with a display device determined the bullet and changed the transparent display surface red. Elio and the others were slightly surprised and raised a slight exclamation.

Akira keeps explaining.

"The person who was shot is to lay down immediately on the spot. If I'm defeated or you're all defeated, we'll all go back to our positions and start over.... Later, well, give it a try."

That's what Akira says and leaves Elio and the others. Elio rushes to stop Akira.

"Any other explanation?!? What are you gonna do with the first signal or something!?

"We'll see soon enough."

That's all Akira said and disappeared to the other side of the rubble a little further away.

As Elio and the others face each other with a puzzling look, the letters appear on the goggles they are equipped with. The vision of the Elios was shown in large letters with ten seconds remaining until the start of combat training.

Even while Elio and the others were surprised by the sudden appearance of the letters, the remaining time shown continued to decrease.

Akira is hiding in the shadow of rubble. Alpha stands by Akira's side (by his side) as usual.

Alpha wears old world-made combat clothing. There are skin exposures everywhere that leave a lot of questions about functionality in battle clothes with designs that are much more prepared to be worn if you are not used to the senses of the old world. Attention to certain materials of combat clothing, made up of multiple materials of different colours, also appears to be wearing swimsuits with extremely little fabric. The decorative part, which looks like a belt, also appears to be intentionally installed to highlight a particular area. It was, in a sense, a more conspicuously designed combat garment than naked, as it was designed to gather the gaze of others.

Akira has already stopped moving when she sees Alpha like that, but she asks Alpha, remembering that there is a fudge.

'Speaking of which, is Alpha's flashy outfit also to confirm the existence of being able to see Alpha? Are you still checking that?

Alpha laughs and answers.

"Oh, that? You haven't checked that out much lately. That's part of the process of narrowing the range from a wide area communication network to limited communication in the process of matching wavelengths between me and Akira, so unless you're someone with wavelengths that resemble Akira in a specific location or so, you can only see me as Akira anymore. So now I'm just for Akira, right?

Akira asks slightly surprised.

'... then what is that outfit?

"Somehow?"

Get dressed.

"I don't like it."

Alpha smiles joyfully as she smiles at Akira. Akira sends a gaze of condemnation, but Alpha speaks with no concern at all.

"I'll think about it when Akira stops upsetting the dust in the shape of her opponent during the fight. A moment of rigidity could kill you. In battle though training. Concentrate on the battle without being distracted by the extras. What would you do if you were attacked by a beautiful, naked, automatic doll in a ruin of the old world? Akira told the enemy to get dressed, didn't she? Or are you gonna get killed while you care what they look like?

Akira gives a subtle look when she hears an unreasonable explanation of Alpha. It is certainly important to see an unexpected sight but act without moving. Even when I first saw Alpha, Akira was in love more than surprisingly, no matter how many times she died among the dangerous ruins. But that's true, too, unless you're convinced.

Akira exhales and switches her mind. You can't win with your mouth anyway. And ask what else you cared about.

"I've prepared a lot as Alpha instructed, but I still don't feel like fighting those guys will be much training. It was true that the operation of the reinforced clothing was made follow-through and the output was also lowered. The movement is duller than usual just for that matter. But I might be complacent, but to that extent, if it's their strength, how many times I do it, it's just gonna end with me kicking it? Is that what you're gonna train for?

Akira also has a lot of training and action. To put it badly, I was confident that I could win no matter how many fights the amateurs, Elios, would have had.

Alpha laughs and answers with pleasure.

"That's where my support is."

'No, so you think you can win without Alpha support, huh?

In front of Akira with a strange look, Alpha shook her neck to the side and laughed invincibly for fun.

"No, I'm not."

The next moment, a ringtone sounded directly next to Akira. Akira's expression stains with amazement. Akira was going to be on full perimeter alert. There must be no enemies in a place where we can raid.

Akira quickly lowers herself and leaves the scene, confirming the surrounding enemy shadows.

"Ringtone!? Live ammo!? From where!

'It's okay. It's not live ammo. Ringtones aren't real either. That sound was made by me so that this training became more realistic. Ballistic projection landing point.

I heard Alpha explain. Akira sees where the ringtone is. There were no bullet marks that should have existed if they were live ammunition. As Alpha explains, it looks like the sound Alpha made by dilating Akira's hearing.

Akira was relieved to understand it, but soon comes back with another look of surprise.

'Right. That was good...... no! Where did they aim from!? When did they turn around?!? There was no response to the information-gathering equipment either!?

"If it was a reaction, it would have happened." It's hard to understand because I don't have my support. On top of that, if you pick a place that's hard to detect by information-gathering equipment, and you hide and move, it won't be so easy to find in Akira right now. '

While Alpha is explaining that to Akira, there is a sound of the bullet passing next to Akira. Akira looks for enemy shadows as she moves to glide down the ground. I can see a boy targeting Akira from the shadow of the rubble a little further away. Shortly before Akira quickly laid a gun on the boy and tried to pull the trigger, the boy quickly hid in the shadow of the rubble. It was about the same time Akira finished pulling the trigger.

Akira also clearly found out that the bullet hadn't hit the boy.

"Noticed!? I got hit!? What a reaction! It would be too fast!

Explain as Alpha smiles joyfully.

"That's because I gave him instructions to hide as soon as I shot him."

See the alpha with Akira's slightly pulled look. Because I gradually realized what Akira meant when she said that Alpha was different. I mean, the opposite is true.

'You said no, didn't you? I'm on their side. "

Akira has no Alpha support and must fight the opponent with Alpha support.

"Have fun, huh?

That's what Alpha said, pointing a mean smile at Akira.

I'm already surrounded by Elio and the others. Akira, who so decides, moves quickly off the spot.

(Alpha supports Elio and the others. I mean, my position is always known to Elio and the others. I guess the ballistic prediction lines are also on Elio's goggles. We'll just have to keep moving to hard-to-get snipers. It would be nice if it stopped)

Countless ringtones from behind running Akira, as corroborates Akira's predictions. The distance between the ringtone and Akira is quite close. The enemy was after Akira firmly.

Akira explores where she can snipe herself from the surrounding terrain, relies on the slightest reaction of the information-gathering device to roughly hit the enemy's position, gazing into the enemy's appearance. Continue to drive your enemies' aiming mad by keeping moving, and to target yourself firmly, to shoot and target yourself, so that your enemies have more time to ride themselves out of the shadows. Don't let the enemy predict the direction of movement, run through it with all your might while suppressing linear movements to make sniping of the enemy more difficult.

Akira's eyes capture the appearance of an enemy that rides itself from the rubble of the enemy. Akira quickly points the muzzle at the enemy. Akira and the enemy pulled each other's triggers.

The ringtone sounds from behind Akira. Akira dodged an enemy attack. Akira doesn't know if her attack hit the enemy. I'm not actually shooting a bullet, because there's nothing like the impact of a landing that would make the enemy feel bad. I can't tell if I fell down because I hit him or to hide myself.

Akira quickly runs toward the enemy's position. If Akira's attack hasn't hit him, it's because he needs to hurry up and get close within the known location of the enemy and let him hit him firmly this time.

Move Akira to a location where she can target her earlier enemies. Then there was the figure of a boy lying on the ground. Akira ran past the boy's side after deciding that an earlier attack had been hit.

The next moment, there was a sign that something was moving behind Akira's back. When Akira looked back reflexively and set up the gun, the boy was up and targeting Akira. He pretended to be dead.

Akira pulls the trigger faster than the boy. After showing a little confusion, the boy was again forced to lean (uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh He made sure his vision over the goggles turned red and fell to the ground as planned.

Akira protests Alpha.

"Alpha! Do you have it now!?

Of course there is. Nobody said you weren't shot, but you shouldn't fall to the ground, right? The idea that the enemy won't pretend to be dead is sweet. Even if it was in action, he might have just passed out. You should have put a bullet in your head without expecting me to take it down cheaply. '

'Okay, I get it!

Akira replied with a little self-abandonment, although she was convinced to hear Alpha's explanation.

Two boys appear behind Akira without time to get her mind back together. He flew quickly to the side as he quickly reacted to the signs and looked back, fighting back as he escaped the enemy's rays. Akira's posture collapsed dramatically due to the motion.

As soon as Akira flew wide to the side and put one foot on the ground with her disfigured, she pointed the gun at Akira as she was waiting for the four boys to jump in.

Akira's brain, which felt the crisis, accelerates consciousness. In a compressed time-sensitive contradiction, Akira draws a circumference at the muzzle, leaving the trigger of the gun on her right hand, while maintaining an inverted posture to escape the radiation for four.

Akira destroyed those four while escaping the rays for four. Convinced of the destruction of the enemy, he gives a slightly appeased (mostly) look and tries to support his body that is about to collapse about the ground with his left hand.

The moment Akira's left hand reached the ground, Akira's vision stained red. Someone shot Akira and hit her hard. Akira fell to the ground in surprise.

Akira's vision returns to normal. In Akira's sight, which remains fallen, Alpha is pointing somewhere. When Akira looked in that direction, Elio stood there with a gun. It was Elio who defeated Akira.

Talk with pleasure as Alpha watches Akira.

"My win. Not yet. '

"... where and how far was Alpha's operation?

'Of course (of course), from start to finish. Everything. "

"... Ahhh."

Akira replied a little rotten.

Akira rises. Alpha is pointing to where Akira was falling until earlier. Akira looked there and looked at her face.

Akira's body was rolling there. Of course (of course), this corpse is the only presence of footage that has expanded and displayed Akira's vision. Akira's body was shot through the head, neck, belly, arms and legs, bleeding, partially defective, and sinking into a bloodbath. If the attack was live ammunition, Akira's end.

Even in previous shooting exercises, Alpha had Akira show the body of Akira attacked by that monster if Akira failed to snipe the monster in the video. At that time, a pile of Akira's body was formed.

Akira talks to Alpha like she's whining.

'It's been a long time since you've seen this. If it was live ammunition, would this have happened?'

In order to make the real Akira in the same condition, it is necessary to use a bullet that is quite powerful if the defense of the fortified garment is taken into account, but usually even the bullet would be in the same condition on the head. There is no big difference in the sense of a corpse.

Alpha smiles and talks to Akira.

'That's the thing. I'm glad it wasn't live ammo, huh?

"Not at all."

Akira had a slightly self-derisive bitterness.
