The hero magician wants to relax. He was too active and targeted for his life, so we'll start over.

The Baldia fleet went into havoc over the unprecedented fleet tactics of the Amiwool squad, which is to transfer into the middle of the enemy fleet.

Elpis, the Amiwool Squad flagship bounced by Deacy's Transfer Magic Formation, deploys the Magic Machine from the onboard aircraft launch port, while turning port. Target the enemy flagship with a cannon that was already pointing to the left.

"Enemy ship, capture!

"Start shooting! Finish the battleship first before the enemy gets back on his feet!

Captain Megis barks.

Magic Civilization Ships have the structural drawback of scarce firepower to the rear of the ship. Poking there will guide Amiwool Squad's ambush in his favor.

But if that were all, the difference in numbers would allow the Baldia fleet to fight back against the Amiwool Squad at all.

It is a 3-to-9 ship difference.

But this number of disadvantages can also be dealt with by increasing the number of firepower!

That's why we deployed the magic machine on board the Elpis ship. Dimensions are that both airframes that can't fly and scaffolding decks can be used for shelling.

As I assumed, the Demon Machine used its power.

Originally, human-type weapons such as demon machines and demon planes are not considered for anti-ship use. Overwhelmingly inferior in range distance on top of limited airframe capable of flying in the first place. Weapons are also vulnerable to ship attacks.

But when it comes to Demon Machine Class, the issue of fire power is cleared. Powerful magic weapons can also damage ships' as long as they clear range issues'.

The distance was packed. Amiwool Squad cleared the range by letting it appear in the middle of the enemy fleet.

Actually, it was a doubling of fire power. Its powerful flame armor has the power of a battleship main gun-like, says Cea Pure, the fire demon machine.

"Yes, Flame Blast! Come on!

From a large magic wand type armed, a giant flame bullet radiates. Cea Pur is not the only one. Cea Gae, a dirt demon machine that can't fly as well, fires high-speed physical bullets from a launcher on both shoulders.

'When this happens, you're just big. It's harder to take it off.'

Gregna Hull's pale voice flows from the comms. Apparently, the launcher on both shoulders of Cea Gae can also shoot rocks and diamond bullets from shells.

"From the enemy ship, the onboard aircraft ejected!

I smile at reports from opponents.

"It's late! This one's already flying the interceptor!

Flightable Ridala Series demon planes have been deployed from heavy patrols, plus wind attribute planes such as Gragna El's Cea Ayr flying from the flagship.

"El, I got this."

"Yes, sir! Fultuna Squad, continue with me!

Fighters who flew rapidly from the Baldia fleet also shut out.

The fleet exercise ended in the victory of the Amiwool Squad.

Exercises are meant for commanders to see limits - who said so?

Deesy's Transfer Magic Formation tactics apply the specifications in the dungeons to aerial and fleet warfare. But I tested this exercise to see if it actually worked.

The result can be described as a great success. Even back in the old days, this method of warfare will work.

I conducted this war situation analysis in a post-exercise brief that gathered the captains and executives of each ship, as well as the Demon Machine Pilots.

By the exercise, metastatic tactics and the research and development of aerial tactics by demonic machines emerged as future challenges.

Captain Megis and the executives say the senior management will also want to make the transition tactics widely operational in the Apolito Army.

Of course, it will. I know that too.

But as it stands, it's a method of warfare that cannot be achieved without Deesy controlling it.

But it would be troublesome if they took her away, so I replied that I would submit an improvement to the Spirit Core that could work on a par with her and a theory of metastatic tactics as a paper.

If I could understand how to do it and how to think about it, the army would study the rest on its own so that I could produce it on my own. In the first place, the transfer device itself is also used on the floating island of Apolito, so you'd think you could do something with the application.

... I don't know how many months actually flow by the time it's done.

Apolito civilization that can't even analyze the Spirit Core of the Demon Machine in the first place. Even if the theory is understandable, whether it can be created on its own is yet another matter.

Next, the aerial warfare use of the demonic drone. Until now, the flyable Ridala series has only been used so much as to intercept mainly small flying whales.

Attacks on large flying whales were not conceived from the outset, as they only had the means to strike at the first place by pulling out a sword and slashing it or hitting a magic attack right away.

The Demon Machine class also has great firepower, but there was a problem with the range range, which was still not taken into account.

But since I used the firepower of the Demon Machine in this exercise to attack the ship, it was only natural for the Demon Machine to have a weapon for a large whale.

"Yeah, a spear would be nice"

"Yes......?

If I may say so, the captains looked at each other.

"There would be cavalry spear-shaped armaments that Sir Baldia's Ridala Dub or her black troops were equipped with... I don't know what I said"

"Is that Fergusol Spinner?

Limne, a water demon machine pilot who was in the brief, spoke. Yeah, well, that sounds great.

"How about planting a bomb on that one and striking it into a small flying whale?

"I see, if we modify the weapons we are currently employing, we will deploy them faster to the front line."

Captain Megis broke up with him.

"Nevertheless, if demon planes are used to attack large species, would the combat capabilities of the troops double?"

"Simply because there were only guns and fighters."

I'll make one more suggestion there.

"Here I want all demon and demon planes to have the ability to fly."

This time, the aircraft that could not be flown was also allowed to participate by scaffolding the deck of the ship. But as far as I'm concerned, I want to use the firepower of the magic machine more aggressively.

"Don't you think it would be a shame not to use the attack power of Cea Pur or Cea Gae on a large whale?

The Ponité of Petra, pilot of the Demon of Fire, rocked. Grenya Hull of the earth also looked interesting, but only Grenya El of the wind turned into a tannic face.

... I wonder if you don't like being taken to the air war, which is your area?

"Nah, I'm not asking you to fight a small whale in the air. I'll have the wind demon put up the main air battle, El."

As soon as I said it, Gregna El smiled at the full face.... Apparently it's a picture star.

But this time, the limne of the water demon pilot will look difficult. So far, I may feel like I'm only being hubbed by myself, especially without her turning up.

"Each demon machine will be equipped with aerial equipment prototyped by Deacy. You won't be used to air warfare except for El, so get used to it. Limne, I'm thinking about using your Cea Hydor a little differently, so I'll explain later."

"Yes, Master Jin"

Turning out not to have been forgotten, Limne loosened her expression like a relief.

Captain Meggis and the captains of each ship are laughing bitterly at me for not lacking the mood of each demon pilot. It's tough, and I got a sympathetic eye, but I just smiled back.

It took my Amiwool Squad a long time to fully invest in action.
