[S.H.I.E.L.D.]

　I unleashed a defensive spell strengthened with 'divine energy' from the Reginrave.
　Normally, an invisible barrier stands in front of the two charged particle cannons that were released with a divine light.
　It is impossible for a barrier encrusted with "divine energy" to shatter, but they are also members of the evil gods. It seems to have the right kind of power, and the barrier it had built was creaking.
　However, I managed to overcome it and succeeded in preventing the charged particle cannon modus operandi. After that, though, [Shield] was shattered.

"You're doing it out of the blue, you bastard........

　I have to admit, I got a little carried away. You've got to be kidding me.

Hey, Ende. "Hey, Ende, we're sequestering those two in a different part of the house, and you're okay with that?
Yeah. Me and Mel will figure it out.
All right. I'll take care of the rest. Flying Swords Fragarach, Mode-Change, Chain!

　Each of the forty-eight daggers floating around Regingrave took the form of a short chain, which connected one after another and changed its shape into a single long chain. At both tips were crystal spheres that looked like weights.
　The chains, filled with divine energy, circled around Regingrave, extending their length.

''Go. Go and catch that s*xually evil dominant species. [Crystal Chain Restraint [Grapnir]]

　The crystal chain began to move with tremendous force and flew towards the two dominant species standing above the twin-headed dragon's head. It was like a crystal snake, rippling and attacking the twin dominant species.

'What the hell is this?
I'll be d*mned.

　The two ends of the weight catch Leto and Rutto, respectively, and just trace the shape of the S, causing the two opponents to wind up in a circle.
　They don't last long. The two restrained dominant species are sent directly to the nearby beach with their chains flying as they are.

''This........!

　With a snap, a crack appears in the chains restraining the two men. Even if they are rotten, they have the same divine temperament, are they a dominant species that has turned into an evil god's subordinate?
　I can't break Regingrave's Flying Manipulative Sword 《Fragarach》 here, so I released the restraints and threw the two men onto the beach.
　Leto and Ruto dropped onto the sandy beach and landed dangerously.
　But this isn't the end.

''【Prison】''

　This time, he uses prison magic to lock them both in. Normally, this 【Prison】 wouldn't shatter no matter what.
　But when the opponent you're trapping is a mutant, and a dominant species, that's doubtful. There is a possibility that it will be destroyed if you put all your strength into it.
　That is, if you can focus all your energy on destroying [Prison].

Do what you want with the rest. We'll take care of the superior species.
"Thank you, Winter's Night.

　A monotone colored dragon knight 《Dragoon》 runs on the sandy beach in high mobility mode. In its hands, Mel and the three girls of the dominant species of Freys were riding on it.
　The three alighted from the stopped dragon knight 《Dragoon》 and Ende also jumped down from the cockpit.

''What, look who it is, it's the former 'king' who escaped with the losers.
'Oh my God, it's Ney. I was surprised to see you with Endemuon, whom you hated so much. I thought you had cried your way back to the Crystal Realm, Frasier.

　Ignoring the two who are laughing at me saying that, Ende and the others enter the 【Prison】. It's set up so that only mutants can enter, so there's no problem there.

''────Reto. Ruto. It's been a long time.

　Mel speaks to them and all four of them stand in front of the twins.
　It's a showdown I'm curious about, but I'll leave it to Ende and the others now. There are many other things to do.
　I put the Fragarach, the chain flying sword, back to the crystal plate and dock it on my back.
　Anyway, we need to take care of the three advanced species.

''Fuyao-san, what do you want to do with the advanced species?

　I thought for a moment as Umina communicated to me and sent instructions to everyone else.

'Sue, you'll work with the stag beetle in Overlord. Sakura will take care of that support. Yae, Hilda, Else, and Linse, take the starfish form. Lean, Lou and Yumina, cover fire on the Knights and attack the advanced species, depending on the situation. I'll take that two-headed dragon. Once each of you have defeated the other, turn to support everyone else.

　That advanced species of stag beetle is not very large. I'd guess it's not much more than seventy or eighty meters at best. Even Sue's Ortlinde Overlord was over thirty meters tall. I think it's possible to hold them back.
　It's because the Ortlinde was originally designed primarily for base defense. Its defense is solid. And with Sakura's support, it should be in good hands.
　I'm a little worried about what kind of attacks those starfish will make, but I think those four can handle it.
　And what I need to do is to take down that double-headed dragon as soon as possible and get around to supporting everyone else.
　I'm counting on you, Ende. Don't let them send their master species over here.

"Alright, let's go!

　I deployed the Flying Manipulator Sword 《Fragarach》 on my back again and turned to the double-headed dragon.


　　　　　　　　　　◇ ◇ ◇ ◇


Now it's time to go!　My arms are going to clang!

　Suu was trembling with joy in the cockpit of the Ortlinde Overlord. Due to the fact that it was a defensive type, Sue hadn't been on the front lines much in the previous battles.
　But this time, he had Winter Night's approval. You can defeat the enemy without hesitation.

The first thing to say is, "Fuyao Yao is a bit overprotective. I'm one of Fuyao's wives. It's a little bit of an advanced mutant or two.
"Be on your guard. "Be on your toes, and don't be alarmed by Sue's bravado.
Ugh..... I'm just talking about my attitude. I'm not getting carried away!
"If you're good.

　I couldn't help but shout out as a calm cherry blossom voice flew through the speakers in the cockpit.
　I regret if my current attitude was childish. Among Fuyao's fiancé 《fiancé》, Su is the youngest. He's two years younger than Yumina and Lou, who are next in line.
　Even though they are only two different, those two are already able to handle themselves like adults. (Just because Soo thinks so, it's not really true.)
　That also makes Suu impatient. I want to become a full-fledged lady as soon as possible, just like those two.
　Recently, she even asked her mother, Ellen, to help her learn sewing, etiquette, and dancing. The results have not been very encouraging, but....

Anyway, for now, you must kill the stag beetle in front of you!

　Inside the cockpit, which was customized for him personally, Sue quickly maneuvered the control stick and entered commands with the buttons at his fingertips while letting the magic power flow.

'Cannon knuckle spiral!

　The swinging Altlinde Overlord's right arm, its tip from the elbow was fired while spinning at high speed.
　The golden 《Gold》 right arm that flew in a straight line exploded into a dark golden 《Dark Gold》 stag that stood up on its hind legs.
　The right arm, which had been spinning while hitting the staggot for two seconds, bounced off as if it had given up and returned to the main body, and the right arm returned to its original position.
　There was a large crack in the chest of the stag beetle, but slowly that crack also regenerated and returned to normal.

''Mm. Can't we finish it off with a single blow?''

　If it's a normal flay, you can destroy it by destroying the nucleus and that will take it down. It's the same with mutants, but mutants are opaque, so it's hard to tell exactly where they are.
　As it becomes more advanced, it's hard to tell how many nuclei it has inside its body.
　At a glance, I think it's somewhere in the torso/abdomen, not the slender legs or the jaws, which would be used as a weapon.

'If only we knew exactly where the nuclei were...'
'Leave it to me. Rosweisse is a supportive frame gear. It has those capabilities as well.
Cherry blossoms?　What are you doing?

　Singing magic is released again from Rosweisse, the white frame gear on which the cherry blossoms ride, and the singing magic is released again.
　The song, the theme song of an entertaining movie about riding a car-shaped time machine and going into the past, was titled The Power of Love, and it struck the advanced species with a powerful resonance.
　Without doing any damage, its waves of sound and light permeated the menacing stag's entire body, capturing the location of the nucleus within it.

'There are three nuclei in total. One in the head and two in the thorax. One in the thorax, one in the pronotum and one in the posterior thorax, vertically. 'Sending you the data.'
Oh.

　The image of the advanced species in front of him appeared on the sub-monitor on Su's left hand side. There were three glowing dots inside its body. This is probably the location of the nucleus.

It's possible to target and destroy it. Now if only we could get an attack that could reach the nucleus...''

　Suu groaned as he stared at the screen, mumbling. It takes a lot of power to bust through the body of a thick advanced species to reach the core.
　Even with the reinforcement support from the cherry blossom singing magic, I'm not sure if I can produce that much power. Moreover, if you don't destroy all three without taking the time to do so, the regeneration will start and you'll have to start over again from the beginning.
　If you dock the drill parts of the universal underground tank 'Mjolnir', which is the leg of the Ortlinde Overlord, in the arm and release 'Cannon Knuckle Spiral' on it........

I never thought this would happen!
What the hell is going on here?

　A voice suddenly flies over the speakers and Sue jumps up in her seat. The voice now is that of High Rosetta, the maintenance manager of Frame Gear and Babylon's 'workshop' manager.

'I've secretly built a special tool for the overload!　I'm going to drop it now!　Snap!

　A single weapon is dropped from Babylon, which is waiting a few hundred meters above the ground. It fell to the sandy beach in front of the Ortlinde Overlord that Suu rode on, with a ground shaking.
　First, a thud!　The heavy earth shaking of the "I", followed by the jalalalalalala!　A metallic sound.

This is....!

　A weapon with a long chain attached to a huge iron ball (though not made of iron) that shone with a golden 《kin》 color. It was also called the Morning Star in this world, and it was incredibly huge, just because it was for the Ortlinde Overlord.

''It's a Giga Gravity Weapon exclusively for use against advanced species warfare, the [Gordo Hammer]!

　The tweak that a hammer is a hammer, but it's the hammer of the hammer-thrower is not possible for Suu without that knowledge.

It's not just a matter of how many times you've been in the past, it's also a matter of how many times you've been in the past. By hitting your opponent with it, it releases at once, and the multiple layers of Magi Gravitational Shockwave completely destroys your target. The more you rotate it, the more powerful it becomes, but if you overdo it, the more the Ortlinde Overlord can't withstand its power. Be careful!

　Rosetta's explanation of Rosetta's explanation, which she was proud of, Su had no idea, but she knew that it was an amazing weapon anyway.
　Ortlinde Overlord's hand grasps the handle of the [Gold Hammer] that fell on the beach. The length of the chain attached to it is up to my chest. When I lifted it with one hand, the iron ball part was lifted without a problem. Apparently it is still a normal weight.
　It would be enough to use it as a weapon even as it is. However, it's not enough to defeat an advanced species.

''Alright!　A woman has the guts to do it!

　Oltrinde Overlord began to slowly swing the 【Gold Hammer】 in her hand. At first it lightly swung back and forth like a pendulum, gradually gaining momentum.
　Eventually it became a vertical rotation, and the golden ball began to send the sand of the beach flying into the air with a roar.
　Without killing the momentum, the vertical rotation transitioned to a horizontal rotation. Sparks flew out of the golden ball, and a tremendous amount of force loaded the two arms of the Ortlinde Overlord.
　Soo can see that many times that amount of power is stored in the golden ball. The warding caused by [Prison] is trapping the power.
　The advanced stag beetle species in front began to gather light between its large jaws. It's probably trying to unleash the charged particle cannon modus operandi released by the two-headed dragon in the same way.

''I'm not going to let it!

　The Ortlinde Overlord rotated his entire body and added power to the 【Gold Hammer】 as if he had become a golden solitary piece of music 【Coma】.
　As it was, he raised the mass of demonic gravity to the very edge of its limit and threw it vigorously at the stag beetle advanced species with his aim.
　It is also a good idea to make sure that you have the right kind of information for your own personal use. At the same time, black particles blew out from the 【Gold Hammer】 and began to distort the space around it.
　''Gosh!　The air roared and a loud vibration hit the area.
　With that, the body of the advanced stag beetle species began to crumble to pieces, flowing smoothly into the wind as if it were sand. Even the nucleus was transformed into tiny particles.

"Turn into dust!

　There was no advanced stag beetle species in the already spherically distorted space. Eventually, by the time the distortion subsided, there was nothing there, just gentle waves churning.
　Complete annihilation. Contrary to Su's words, not even dust remained.
　Even the 【Gord Hammer】 that I threw away was. What a 【Gold Hammer】 was a disposable ultimate weapon.

''We did it, Winter Night!　Toto.

　Sue rejoices in the cockpit. But the Ortlinde Overlord went straight to his knees on the beach. Steam and magical residue poured out of his entire body, and the armor on both arms crumbled into tatters.
　 The power has been cut off and the instruments in the cockpit have gone dark, and the lights are on at a minimum.

What's going on? We won't get it working.
"Don't worry about it. The damage caused by the recoil from using the "Gold Hammer" must have been significant. It's just a temporary overheat. To handle that much disintegrating energy, it was impossible to handle the current overload, wasn't it?

　From his beloved machine, which had completely stopped working, Sue manually opened the hatch and walked out.
　The beach was still a battlefield, and in the distance, he could see the skirmishes between the Flame Gear and the lower-grade species controlled by the Knights.

''Good night.''

　A white frame gear slides in below us. Cherry Blossom Losweisse.
　Soo puffed up in frustration atop Ortlinde's open chest armor.

''It's good that we've defeated the advanced species, but this isn't going to help Fuyao and the others, is it?
"Don't worry. I'll make the most of it.
It's not fair!

　I know it sounds childish, but I couldn't help but shout that. It was finally my turn to come on, and it was already over.

'It's not fair. Sue has done her part. You should be proud of yourself. Monica, transfer the Altlinde Overlord to the Babylon Hangar with all of its pilots.
"Aye.
Oh, come on!　We still need to talk...!

　The golden giant god, who was kneeling, disappeared from the sandy beach in a flash of light, Sue and all.
　The only thing left in its place is the cherry blossom-ridden Rosweisse.

''Well. Do we go towards Else and the others, or do we go towards the king... or do we go to support Yumina and the other knights, but...''

　Inside Rosweisse's cockpit, Sakura murmurs softly and checks the status of the battlefield through search magic.
　There is no need to worry about Else and the others. Among the members of the Fiancé, Else, Yae and Hilda's trio of martial artists are all present.
　Fuyao Yao was no more worried about them than Else and the others. There was no way he could lose. Even if heaven and earth were to be turned upside down. Sakura had a near-blind certainty in her mind.
　If that was the case, Yumina and the rest of the Knights would be the only choice for support. Originally, Rosweisse is a plane whose main function is to provide logistical support. You can make use of that characteristic in such a situation.
　After making that decision in her mind, Sakura decided to drive her Rosweisse towards the crowded battlefield.
