 That's how careful they are not to take any risks.



"I see, it's similar to the Agate base.

 After a long absence, Jin, Marikka, Reiko, and Hanako arrived at the East Base of Jigosaldo using <, a quadruped armored vehicle.

 The sofa, table, refrigerator, kitchenette, etc. are brought out from < and installed by <> and others, and the habitability is considerably improved.

 Finally, the redecoration is completed with the installation of the <> that leads directly to the <>.



"<>, I am Marikka. I am Marikka and I am looking forward to working with you.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com



Yes, Marikka, it's nice to meet you too. Please give me a new name.



 It seems that the naming of a new master is a confirmation of the right to command. Even if someone more qualified than Marikka appears, Marikka will remain the master unless the naming is revoked.

"Well, ...... since quartz is used extensively in the interior of this base, let's call it <>, you <>."

Thank you very much. From now on, I, <> and <> will be under the control of Marikka-sama.

Nice to meet you, Quartz.

"Yes, Jin-san."

 Here comes an unexpected word.

Wait. You are Jin, right?

Yes, that's right.

Why do you call me Marikka-sama?

Because ...... it's always been that way.

Yes, Jinsha.

So, please show me what you can do. Then you can convince me.

What do you want me to do?

Can you make a golem that can win in a mock battle against my battle golem?

 Reiko held up the sheath of the Momoka that she had brought to protect Jin, and declared.

"I am Reiko. I will eliminate anyone who blocks your father's way."



...... Jin-dono, are you sure? I can take it back now.

No, no. Reiko, please.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


Yes, Father.

Okay. It's too small inside the base. Let's do it outside.

I have no objection.

 Jin, Reiko, Marikka, Hanako and the others went outside the base.

 The area was a rough terrain with fist-sized stones and rocks the size of horse-drawn carts scattered about.

"Reiko, will you take care of this?"

"Yes, father."

You can take out up to 50% at your discretion. And keep the damage to half.

Yes, sir.

 Reiko is dressed as usual.

 She is dressed in a very rare material and has a peach blossom on her back.

 At that moment, another doorway opens, and a battle golem appears.

 It was 2.5 meters tall, with four arms and no head. It has a sword and a mace on its right two arms and a shield and a spear on its left two arms.

 Generally speaking, it is a very strong enemy, but for Jin and the others, who had already completed their analysis with the Peeper, it was no threat at all.

 However, they are interested in how they will fight.



If you are ready, let's begin.

 Reiko and the battle golem faced each other at a distance of about ten meters.

"We're ready when you are, sir.

"Very well.

 < finished speaking, a spear was thrown.

 The initial speed of the spear was about 100 meters per second.

 At such a short distance, it would have skewered him before he realized it.

 ...... normally.

"......Thank you for the gift."



 Reiko easily accepted the spear,

"I'll give it back to you."

 and threw it back.


Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


No!



 The battle golem swats it away with its left-hand shield. Its reaction speed is quite fast.

Ah!

 But at the same time as the spear is thrown, Reiko's flying kick strikes the battle golem.

 After throwing the spear, Reiko throws a flying kick that is even faster than the spear.

 Because of the weight difference, Reiko fell back about 5 meters and the battle golem fell back about 1 meter.



"At ......?"

《Unu......isn't that pretty good,》



 The battle golem's voice ......, or rather 's voice, sounded a little impatient.

"Is that so? I'm a bit disappointed.

 The battle golem raised its right-hand sword and lunged at the girl.

 Reiko also pulls out her Momoka and intercepts it.

 A surprised voice escaped from the battle golem.

 That's because, the sword they had met with was easily severed by Reiko's <>.

"Mmmm, that's quite a sword.

"Thank you."

 Reiko then takes another step forward and slashes at him with her <>.

 But the battle golem barely manages to dodge it.

 This is probably due to its stride, reach, and the length of its weapon.

"Is this about the limit for a 20 percenter? ......Your father allows up to 50 percent. Let's increase it to ......40 percent."

 Reiko doubled the output.



"Here I go!"

 The ground exploded with Reiko's step!

 Reiko closes the distance in a flash and unleashes an Iai using Momoka!
