"I don't understand...? You don't know what you're talking about."

Before the altar surrounded by subtropical forests, the Nings gaze at Benante. Ikeno was preparing for the unforeseen and a little distance from the two.

Benante's gaze pierced by the Ning Man is sharp, and it conveys that he is not just a man of exotic beauty: brown skin and firm dark hair.

But...

"Oh, you wouldn't know. Naturally."

There's no way I can tell. This is something I've been planning for a long time, and that's something I don't even know about non-Ning people at the moment.

(When Slayer takes action, Metallica naturally also gets that information. It is Metallica's code not to tolerate traitors. Slayers are the ones who betrayed Metallica. So we have to crusade, at least on the face of it. then I want you to move)

(I'm not seriously asking you to crush us, or cover us. What I'm reading is a pose. Even incompetent people can. You are incompetent, but of high standing. It's also appealing to say that you're the one who moves to end the traitor)

(What? What are you talking about? It doesn't matter what it means, it doesn't matter to you.... Don't forget.... are you in a position to defy me? You do what I say if you don't want to die)

These are all words the Ning said to that man before he attacked Anthrax. Then I didn't want to do anything else, but I did it even when I stepped on it. And Benante doesn't know that.

"I'll tell you. Benante."

The Ning spoke to Benante in a low, whispering tone. Around there are noisy voices and treading footsteps of the Anthrax people calling Benante, but at this distance you can hear them. And nobody else can hear me.

"Right now there's a fighter unit on this island headed by a Metallica airship"

"... I've already observed that here, but what's wrong with that?

The Nings uttered decisive words in a way, but Benante did not move one eyebrow. Its expression, illuminated by the flaming swings of the altar, does not look frightened at all.

"Metallica will never attack Anthrax."

The words of Benante. That's true. Between the major players, Metallica will not attack Anthrax, where an inviolable agreement is implicitly concluded. Because it puts itself at risk. That's why the Nings take the form of disobeying Metallica.

"... oh yeah"

The Nings affirmed Benante's words.

"Daimyo, I guess you guys admit your disobedience is behind the metallic body as well. But even if that's the case, Metallica won't help them and attack us. It's small from the whole of Metallica, such as your presence. If it's enough to break the 'Inviolability' and be consigned and hostile to other organizations, abandon you and others. The flying unit and the others will be headed this way in the pose 'I've come to sanction the traitor' or 'I've come to cover Anthrax'. Break into the surrounding airspace, but you will not intervene in this fight."

Benante's tongue has no precipitation. Moreover, he also has the wisdom to discern that this disengagement is a pose. I see you can be the leader of Anthrax at that young age.

The Ning man was a little silent and listening to his words.

"Is that your trump card with that flying unit? Then it's a shame. They won't help you. And if I bring down the Warcraft to this body, you can't win.... over. Evil genius, and they've defeated Justice (Rox) so far, but that's it...!

His words, so to speak, were full of the temper and will of the rift, albeit in a calm tone.

But.

"... ku, ku, ha ha. You, aren't you mistaken about something?

Ning people mocked him like that.

"I don't expect Metallica to be rescued. But I'm going to intervene in the fight. No doubt about it."

I'm evil. He who stands at the top of evil. So justice is not the only one to defeat. Above all evil, manipulate, rule, and win.

I knew this measure would cost me my life. I was scared when I decided. I couldn't stop shaking.

But I won't stop with that. And let it look natural and succeed.

To that end, he took in Ikeno, transformed Tsurgi and prolonged the battle by destroying Anthrax's defensive net to make the battle even temporarily mutually reinforcing.

"... what...?...!

It was Benante, who had a much blurrier look on his face, but I could see a rush on his face to see if he perceived anything.

"Oh, you're about to enter our airspace. That's amazing. You figured that out? Is that the power of Sherman?

Scheduled time. Soon Metallica's flight forces will reach over this island.

"Why...!?

"Metallica, that unit is going to attack. To kill me."

Speak up. And at the same time burn the black flames that dwell in this body.

I swore to that big man who betrayed and defeated me.

So this flame is much bigger and hotter than ever...

"What leads that unit is the headfield, the man who can't help but want to kill me"

Headfield. That man is more famous for his honorable name of Professor H.

It's only superficial, but Slayer betrays Metallica and attacks Anthrax.

There's no way Metallica won't do anything at this time.

Discuss the backcutter (slayer). We need to show the attitude that we moved for it. Naturally.

Who will do the job at this time? The Nings had decided it beforehand and had forced them to accept it again.

Headfield has been a strong contractor since the days of the Development Office. You can't go against the Ning people.

And when he has to come here, he realizes. And here's what I think. 'This is a chance. Kill the devil who keeps blackmailing himself. It's one of a thousand times. "

The result is the current situation.

"Ha, look. Close. But it's the one that really does what I expected. It makes me laugh because it makes me a top scientist."

Already, an approaching flight unit could be identified with the naked eye, and the sound could be heard. The Niners and the Anthrax who surround Benante also realize it and raise their voices.

There's not much time left.

"What are you talking about...!?

Benante was beginning to let sweat seep through his forehead.

"You're right. I'm guessing he's giving instructions to fighter units while sitting on premium seats on a large airship. Kill Komori Ning, and slay all the Slayers. And no one should be made aware of that. So kill all the witnesses, too. Kill them all, burn them down on every island. It'll be easy."

Over my back, I heard an explosion from afar. Perhaps the flying unit started the bombing.

"Look, check it out with the power of the proud Sherman. The woods are burning. Or is it still around the beach?

The Ning man was convinced of it without looking back, distorting the edge of his mouth.

Anslax's Flying Warcraft has already been wiped out by the super soldiers led by Ikeno. That's why we can't stop the flying unit.

"Why... Do that..."

Ning people fold up.

"There's no way, is there? No, you don't understand. Not everyone is as devoted to their own organization as you are. Some people prioritize self-preservation over their beliefs and peers. Like that second-rate villain."

Headfield is probably going to explain it this way.

To the outside: 'The traitor's slayer had killed all the anthrax on this island. So I took responsibility as Metallica, and I ended Slayer'.

And inside Metallica, 'Slayer had been defeated by Anthrax. I can also make excuses for this opportunity, so I ended the remaining anthrax'.

Of course, there is something painful about this saying. Metallica is likely to lose credibility from other organizations.

but that has nothing to do with headfield.

Originally, he was the man who leaked information about the Development Office for his own prosperity and tried to push Metallica into a predicament. Even if the organization did some damage, I would choose a thousand chances to kill the man who made my pride out of the Komori Ning people who keep threatening me.

I left him scattered for that. To use it this way someday.

The unexpected for Benante is there.

He is good, and he is sincere to God and his fellow citizens, even if he is evil in general.

So I can't think.

To have someone do such a silly thing, such a filthy thing.

But I'm not. I'm a weak, out-of-town man. That's why you can win.

I had several ways to drop this island. But the previous offensive has convinced me that Benante's humanity is uninformed. So take this measure.

"Soon, everything on this island will be wrapped in flames. Neither we nor you can leave alive."

As the explosion sounded intermittently and the wind blew, Ning gave a brief account of the future that would undoubtedly materialize if the jacket was left hanging.

Anthrax is wearing out in the fight against Slayer. Neither interception nor escape is possible. Rescue of the Anthrax people outside the island is not on time. And I can't convey anything else that Ning people have just told me. Already this island is completely jamming with anise, and communication to the outside world has been cut off.

"Are you......!!

I heard an explosion from closer to me, as I answered Benante, who gave me an angry look. You can see the flames rising, and if you look up, you can see the fighters.

"I know that Anthrax on this island is part of it. Like you just said, even if all those on this island are wiped out, the anthrax won't be over soon. But you, the ruler, shall die, and this island, the holy place, and its altar, shall be burned. I don't know what kind of damage Anthrax is going to take."

"Are you insane...? You and your people are going to die... what are you going to do with this!?

Benante shouted and at the same time unloaded a lizard warcraft on him, transforming him into a Lizardman appearing in a fantasy novel. At the tip of my nails was a drop of venom, and I really didn't think it was something I could beat in Evil Silhouette.

Benante then waves his sharp nails down towards the Ning people, remaining sharply elevated.

But the Ning people will not avoid it. I don't even turn into Evil Silhouette.

"Don't you have a prediction? You would."

Lizardman's claws, approaching in front of him, stopped perfectly to Ning's words.

Just a few centimeters away, there were claws that would have died instantly if touched, but the Ning continued without blinking.

"... down to you (Slayer), is that it?

"Oh. Come to me. That way I'll stop the bombing. I can do that."

Yes, I've already hit my hand at stopping the runaway headfield.

The surrounding Anthrax did not speak, but awaited the direction of their own rulers.

Ikeno is not already here, by the way.

"... but..."

Benante was stuck in words. That would be so. They have what they believe. There's no way I can make the choice of going down to the slayer right away.

But that should cover it up.

"I conquer the world.... Absolutely!! I'll guarantee you Anthrax's whereabouts."

I don't have time. So say it in the end.

The Nings are not going to say anything about their culture or religion. Slayers also have Sabbath and Santa Ana, but the same thing about them.

The world we have today is home to the happiest people in history. But on the other hand, there are things that are unacceptable. The same was true of the Nings themselves. Break it, I swear to God, I've been running.

"... you want me to believe that vow?

Benante's eyes are still sharp. It is also natural as the one who leads the tribe.

And Ning is a bad man, not a very believable man. I know that. So here's the answer.

"No. My vows don't weigh this much in the first place. But think about it. If you come down to me now, this island will help and you won't die either. Anslax just joins the slayer as it is. You guys will be stronger than ever. You control the world. That's when you get your own sanctuary. And... if I've made a different (but different) move, you can always kill me and betray me.... you."

In the end, there are two options.

If you refuse, Anthrax will lose its home island and Benante and fight the times ahead.

If you descend, you will be added to the Slayer, leaving your whole fighting force at least temporarily. I'm alone. I'm strong. And if together we can control the world, there is a world ahead where Anthrax lives as Anthrax.

Which is what you get.

Naturally, from Benante, it is also possible that the Nings are about to crumble Anthrax by causing him to betray or plot, but that should also be able to move to stop Benante as long as he is alive.

The Ning slowly lay his hands on Benante's arm, transformed into a warcraft that remained clumped in front of him, and grated him down.

Benante answers that, too, and solves the change.

In contrast to the explosion sounds heard from all over the island and the roar above, there was a quiet, but tense, air between them.

strength as an anthrax force, and a man named Benante who created it.

I'll make sure you get it.

"What is it that you Anthrax fight for that you do what is considered evil? Isn't that to protect the way you guys are?

Ning speaks like a whisper.

"Rocks, Guardians, Other Organizations......" The World ". A man like you would know that it's hard to fulfill your ideals in there. How long? How long are you guys gonna fight for? Remaining in that precarious state, for years and decades. Are you going to be denied by the world and continue to resist it?

Anthrax is already stagnant, as are many other organizations. It depends on the balance of power and the presence of Rocks with big evil organizations like Metallica and Megadeth. It is no longer just an ideal theory to control the world we initially aspired to. Otherwise, because there can be no inviolable agreement with Metallica.

Benante just listened to the Ning people in silence.

Ning people keep going.

"... I'm not. Change. Change this world and show it.... I'll say it again."

The Ning people stand upright and look to Benante. He was slashed by Ikeno, he was shocked when he landed, and even if his body was frayed or covered in blood, and the fear of dying in the bombing was imminent in a few minutes, he wouldn't fracture it.

And as all the men of Anslax who were here could hear, they let go of all their might, saying all their words, lest they disappear with the sound of the bombardment that roared from all over the island.

"Benante, the man who unites the people of God. The way to control the world...

With me, come!!!
