Discover Horse East. Early men engaged in hostile alienation, struggling - reporting to me from Shapeshifter soldiers.

Damn, evil spilled and I instantly went back to the research floor. Though I had to deal with Scar, I didn't know the Earlies were struggling anymore!

Early these days, it's very reliable. Its strength is enough to approach Leele, although the Kingsguards are completely toothless and not immortal.

I mean, he's a strong man in the top five of us in the Willidis army. Sakilis and Elisa, who consolidate their sides, are also highly capable. Make sure you can't take down the scars, they can fulfill the foothold adequately. But still, an enemy that makes you struggle... Abominable!

And, ahead of the floor - the passage to the laboratory was blocked.

"Hey, you're kidding me!

The Earlies are fighting inside! Yet the road is not closed to traffic or even stylish!

"No, I didn't expect Schmeltz to struggle this far. I'd love it to be a research material."

The voice of Ma Dong Scien wooded as it sounded on the experimental site.

"Schmeltz built on Scar's research data by incorporating that regenerative capability into the human body. He's the best at the moment, and that's what he's done with the technology he's developed so far."

Early's defender blade was bounced unbearably off Schmeltz's stick. A blow that folded as it was hit Early's abdomen, knocking her body to the ground.

- If it weren't for Gin's defensive magic equipment, they would have done it!

Early thought as she rolled to the ground. I have to get up - even if I think so, my body is heavy. There's a defensive magic device and it's this one. The degree of fatigue is too great. I feel like I'm out of breath because I'm forced to go with the other guy's high pace.

Sakilis had already lost consciousness and Elisa was also unable to lean against the wall and move. SS soldiers have also been cleaned up, and only Early could move now.

"... Hmm, normally it's not weird if you're dead. Do you have any tricks? Nice, I'm getting a little interested."

Ma Dong laughed lightly.

"Schmeltz. Those daughters will not kill them, they will capture them alive. I checked it all out and broke it in your real life exam... no, that's a little wasted"

Hmm, horse east to think of.

"... well, I'm also thrilled to cut off my hands and feet and make them a living part of my arr"

A plain otherworldly sorcerer. The blocked laboratory entrance blew up as Schmeltz turned his foot to Early.

Ma Dong Scien gazes.

What showed up was a man with a full face shaped helmet in pitch black, concealing his face and putting together a magician-style cloak.

"Schmeltz"

Reacting to Ma Dong's voice, Schmelz held the stick and ran to the rookie.

Running to me is a grey-skinned tenacious warrior. Is it subhuman or chimeric wepon again?

Well, I don't care.

I can see Early and Sakilis falling in sight. A warrior advancing like a locomotive. The eyes are giraffed and the appearance of peeling out the teeth is yet a carnivorous beast. Wrap that body with magical arms and throw it away!

Gun, and jumped to the ceiling like a warrior giant was bounced. I was going to slap him on the ceiling as it was, but before that, the warrior's body landed on the ground, including falling.

I couldn't push it off with magic. I see, you seem to have resistance to magic there. I point my right hand at the target and shoot Lightning in.

The warrior waved a stick and played an electric bullet.... Well, can we intercept the magic of bullet speed close to the bullet?

Shoot the lightning in a row at the warriors coming this way again. The warrior also wields the stick again, avoiding demon bullets, while trying to narrow the distance.... you have a stick in your way.

Gravity up. Increased gravity - ten times the weight load on the body of the warrior coming. Its legs are about to stop, but it won't stop moving forward. Slow as a turtle, but it takes one step at a time.

"Ice Pole"

Warrior's ambient temperature drops sharply. It freezes apart from the tip of his leg, and eventually the ice covers his entire body so that he swallows its body. Constantly for seconds, the warrior is wrapped in a block of ice and unable to move.

"... oh my god"

My voice goes down. The magician in his fifties or so - Ma Dong Scien?

"I didn't expect to freeze Schmeltz in no time... no, he's a horrible sorcerer"

"You're Ma Dong Scien."

"Yes, I'm Horse East Scien.... who do you know about me?

"Let's just name it the leader of those whom the Great Empire calls rebels,"

"I can't tell you your name," he said.

"If you surrender and will not lend a hand to the Great Empire in the future, I will tell you"

"Well... does that mean that if I surrender to you, I will be guaranteed my safety"

Interesting, Ma Dong put his hand on his chin beard.

"Then you seem to know my specialty."

"I'm from another world, doing research on aliens, that's about it."

"I see. Sounds pretty informative.... Oh, excuse me. Most people in the empire think I'm just a magician."

Sooner or later, Ma Dong takes his seat.

"What can I be made to do after I surrender to you? If, as always, we can study the abnormalities, it would be stingy to replace them."

……

A study of anomalies, huh? You think I'd approve of such a monster study over this period? Don't be ridiculous, I'll tell you what to do.

What is the study of anomalies in the first place? There is, in itself, something hard to admit that produces monsters like the ones we have been fighting for.

but if, for example, there is something from the victims of chimeric wepons that allows them to separate elements of other organisms, the story changes.

Yeah, I don't know what the anomaly is. What I see is just one side of the truth, and depending on the other way of looking at it, I change my mind.

Oh, well. Now I know why I'm stuck. He said he might be like me.

Defeat enemies for peace, for a peaceful life. Me making all the weapons for it. Machine or alien - there's no difference between me and Ma Dong in that they're both using it to fight, in that they're producing it.

Honestly, I can't help but be angry that Early and his people were hurt. But at the same time, there is a cold perception that it is in war, and that it is mutual.... I repeat, I really want to punch you or knock you down!

"... I don't know everything about what your research looks like"

Quiet, I told you.

"Sometimes it won't be admitted, or vice versa. Currently, I can't answer that."

"... great. You're young, but you're rational. It's a tribute to be hurt by your allies, to be in battle, and to remain so rational."

Ma Dong put his hand on his chest.

"But if there's no guarantee that you can unconditionally acknowledge the research, you're more free to do it if you're in the Great Empire -"

"Bye -"

I sent attack magic to Ma Dong's feet.

"Is it a negotiated breakdown?
