The mutants that were pierced through the nucleus by the [Meteor Sword Group [Gradius] disappeared with black smoke rising.
　There were already no moving mutants in the surrounding area. Several golden skeletons were wandering around Walla Walla, but Su's Ortlindeoverlord was silently trampling them down with his big feet.

'No reinforcements, huh?'

　I point the camera at the Golden Palace, which stands eerily still. Are you waiting for me?

"Fuyao-san, Else-san and the others...

　When I turned around to Umina's communication, I saw Else's Gerhilde and Cherry Blossom's Rosweisse, followed by Ende's Dragon Knight 《Dragoon》 running towards us.
　Hmm?　Isn't that Ende's high-mobility mode?　What the hell, it's been hit.
　I zoomed in on the camera and looked at the dragon knight and saw that his antenna horn was broken, he had no wheels on one leg, and there seemed to be a hole in his shoulder.
　Uh-oh. Rosetta's going to cry, this. It's going to be a pain in the ass to fix.

You look like you've been beaten up pretty bad.
''Surprisingly, my opponent was tougher than I expected. Well, I'm done with that.

　When I sent the communication, Ende's voice came flying in, still aloof as ever. Apparently, the person himself is safe. Then a communication from Else speaks out.

You're the one who got the job done, Mel. I saw that too. It's going to be interesting to see what Master has to say about it later.
"Fuyao Yoru, your wives are not bad characters!
They're wonderful women, but what is it?

　Don't give me that, a**h*le. You've sacrificed enough for me.
　Putting aside the idiot, we are heading to the front of the Golden Palace.
　It is called the Golden Palace, but it looks like a mountain made of gold. In fact, it may not be gold at all. It looks like a sword mountain with angular protrusions and pillars growing in disorder.
　You can see the entrance to the mountain, but it's only about four meters high, so it's a bit impossible to enter with frame gear.

''Everyone, let's get off here once.

　I get down from the Regingrave that landed on the ground and put away the aircraft into the 【Storage】. Everyone else also stowed the same way into the 【Storage】 of the ring, and Ende also locked the dragon knight into the example prepalaat.
　We go up the mountain to the entrance located around the middle of the mountain. But I'm just flying with 【Fly】 with everyone I floated with 【Revitation】.
　The entrance was a beautiful right angle and seemed to be cut out into a rectangle. About four meters high and two and a half meters wide, I guess.
　The end, which shone dully in gold, stretched straight out like a passage. It looked extremely suspicious or smelly.... There's a trap, as if to say, "There's a trap," but there's no enemy in sight.
　We have no choice but to proceed anyway. Well, still, it's better to be cautious, isn't it?

[Prison]

　We'll put a perimeter around me.

All right, let's move on. Ende, take care of the rear.
All right.

　We walked with everyone else down the straight corridor. Only the sound of our footsteps, clunking, clunking, echoed, emphasizing the silence of the area.
　We don't know where the enemy will come from. We stepped forward nervously.

'It's been a long time, you know.'

　Linze murmured as she turned back. The entrance was already small and out of sight. It seems that the path is gently sloping down. In other words, we're heading underground.
　It was getting dark, so Linse turned on the [light].

''Do you intend to collapse the mountain and bury me and my friends alive?''
Hey, stop it!

　Yae's words were tugged at by Else. Although everyone was relieved when I told them that they won't be buried alive because of [Prison].

''Hmm?''
Oh.
"Oh?

　Me, Mel, and Ende stop. They both sense that this is happening.

What's going on?

　Lou asks me with concern. I'll explain, because keeping quiet is likely to increase her anxiety.

'I just felt a shimmer in space. Maybe it's leading to another space from here.
Another space... like a 'hangar'?
'Yes. A space that is next to your world and yet is nowhere else. It's the 'inter-dimensional space', if you will.

　Ende adds. 'The 'dimensional chasm' is the place where the Frays who came to our world were located, and it is a space where it is possible to connect to other worlds.......I think the World God said that.


　　　　　　　　　　◇ ◇ ◇ ◇


"I can't explain it very well, but there was a school you attended in the previous world, Fuyao-kun, right?　If that building's classrooms were one world, I'd be the headmaster.
'Huh...'

　Suddenly what. Well, it's true that the World God looks like the headmaster of the magic school in the movie.

I'm sure you'll find that the walls and doors that separate the classrooms from the corridors are the so-called 'world wards', and if you climb the stairs to the top floor, you'll be able to get to a higher level of the world.... Is the divine world a rooftop?　I'm the most powerful person in the school, but I don't know what goes on in each and every classroom. It's all self-study. If this were a real school, it would be a normal thing for an educator to do, but that's just an example, so please ignore it.

　Well, if the school has a crazy number of classrooms and you don't know how many floors there are, you might not be able to keep track of them all. And there's no homeroom teacher in that classroom, either.

So, then. Then I'll liken your 'phrases' to the mosquitoes and flies that swarm the corridors. When you open the door, they will try to enter the classroom. And you're killing them.
Well, I can see why.
This corridor is the chasm between dimensions. Normally, in order to cross the world, you have to pass through this passage. This is the only place where the divine race can transfer from classroom to classroom without passing through this place. That's what the 'other space transfer' across the world is all about.

　I see. So there's a 'dimensional chasm' next to every world, and there are things like Freys and Ende walking back and forth through it.
　And these bad bugs are hanging out in the corridors," he said.

'It's messy,'
It's a pain in the ass. You could put some pesticide in the hallway, but it would kill the good bugs.

　The image of Ende turning over in my mind, along with Fraise, came to mind.
　That certainly seemed like overkill. I drank the tea that the World God had brewed while thinking that it wouldn't work.


　　　　　　　　　　◇ ◇ ◇


　End of recollection.
　It seems that we stepped into the same space as that 'interdimensional space'.

Did we get lured in...?
What do you think?　But we can't turn back, you know.

　Once again we moved on. Eventually the long corridor ended and we found ourselves in what looked like a large hall. The ceiling was so high that it was too dark to see up there. It looks like a temple somehow. A temple of the evil gods, I guess.

"Fuyao-san, that...!
M.....!

　He turned his gaze forward at Umina's voice. There was a huge dark-gold cocoon, like an egg, sitting there.
　Huge. Bigger than a frame gear. It was shaped like an upright egg, with something like spider silk clinging around it, and its golden threads were rooted to the floor and walls. It looked like the chrysalis of some insect.
　And a man standing on that chrysalis.

''Yura........''

　A man's name escapes from Mel's mouth.
　He wears a dark-gold crystalline body and plumped up to his icy twin eyes.

It's good to see you, 'King'. "Long time no see, 'King'," he says. "Never thought I'd see you again. And it's been a long time since you have too. Motizuki Touya.
Well, I'm surprised you remember me. You're a lot different now. You look like a different person.

　The crystal-like body he once wore became a dark gold metal, and it was obvious that he had turned into a mutant. A dark gold crystalline body covering his intelligent pale face and body. An ambitious man who had become a subordinate of an evil god.

''I threw away the old wreckage called Frase and gained a new body and power. No, I should say I've evolved. It's the same for you, isn't it?　Motizuki Touya.
Don't put us together. We're not the same.

　This is not the kind of thing I want to be associated with.

Oh, really?　But you can see it, can't you?　The divine Qi rising from this cocoon. A glimpse of ultimate power beyond human knowledge!

　It is true that Yura is right, I have been seeing the evil divine spirit in my eyes since a while ago. It's from the object in front of me that I don't know if it's a cocoon or an egg. It's even bigger than that neat god I once faced. How many negative emotions have it taken in?
　I point Gunmode's Brunhild at the evil god's cocoon.

I'm sorry to say that I'm drunk, but a god is a god and he's an evil god. I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to crush him. We don't need them in our world.
'It's not for you to decide whether it's necessary or unnecessary. It's me.

　Yura snapped her fingers, and a loud, ear-splitting sound echoed through the hall.
　In the next moment, with a crunch, a metal pillar grew out of the golden floor like a frost pillar, and the pillar undulated like a fluid, taking the form of a skeleton.
　Some of the skeletons were wearing power suits about three meters high, like the 'Dverg' built by the dwarves. It was probably made by taking in the Golem soldiers of Isengard and making them. Or rather, they were waiting for us after all.
　One after another, skeletons appeared from the floor and attacked us with scimitar-like swords in their hands. But the scimitar is flicked off with a ginormous sound. It's the effect of 【Prison】.

'You're in the way.'
Wha...

　With a sound like glass breaking, 【Prison】 shattered. Something like a laser was released from Yura's fingertips and pierced the 【Prison】.
　d*mn it, even if it's rotten, God is still God. If it's only a golden skeleton, can't it be defended against even the strong attacks of Yura, its attendant?
　The golden skeleton's attack begins as 【Prison】 is shattered.
　I ducked the slashing skeleton's sword and thrust Brunhild's cutting edge into the nucleus deep inside his sternum, which was in blade mode.
　Switching to gun mode as it is, he aims at the chest of another skeleton behind the defeated skeleton and pulls the pulling iron.

''Kokonoe Shinmei-ryu [Kokonoe Shinmei-ryu] profound technique, Beak Stabbing Renduku [Shishiren-Totsu].

　Yae's thrusts, which were released in succession, shattered the nuclei of several bodies without excess 《amazing》.
　Me, Yae, Hilda, Lou, Else, Ende, Nei and Lise stand in front of the skeletons, while Yumina, Linse, Sue, Lean, Sakura and Mel, who are in the back, provide support.

''Rose Crystal Spikes [Prisma Rose]

　The crystal Ibarra extended from both of Mel's hands, restraining the golden skeletons around them, and then tightening them up and destroying them in pieces. Ibarra smashed the nucleus that fell to the floor mercilessly like a whip cracking. A queen, huh? Scary.
　Sakura deploys her auxiliary magic through song. Linse iced the legs of the swarming skeletons with ice magic, and Ende and Else crushed the nukes one after another. Lise and Nay also kicked the enemies away effortlessly with their divine swords. I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this as well.

''Ga.''

　A Dverg pseudo power suit-like Dverg is attacking me. A fist that seemed to be six or seventy centimeters long was swung down at my face.

''Power Rise!''

　Using body-enhancing magic, I took that fist head-on with one hand. I was going to rip off his arm as it was, but before I could do so, a bullet from Yumina's Colt M1860 Army Pseudo fired from Yumina's Colt M1860 Army Pseudo pierced the core of the Dverg mutant without missing a beat. Hue. As expected.
　It doesn't matter how many of these guys come, I'm not afraid of them, but it's just too depressing.
　When you get into a fight with many people, you should first crush their heads. If you can, do it loudly. My grandfather told me to approach them without saying a word and hit them with all my might, and I don't think he was wrong.

"Ende, take care of things here for me.
What?

　I kicked the ground and flew towards Yura standing on top of the chrysalis at once with 【Fly】. I switched to blade mode and swung down Brunhild, swinging it directly at the guy's brain.
　I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this. So, you've been stopped. I'm sure you'll be able to see that I'm a ridiculous laughingstock.

I knew you would come to me like this.
Yeah, okay. So what's the plan after this?

　I was annoyed by your shallow thinking, and I laughed back at you, as if to provoke you.

"I'll do this.
What?

　Layers of barriers unfold around Yura. That in itself isn't surprising. I'm sure you'll be able to find a lot of people who will be able to help you.
　I'm sure you'll be surprised to learn that I'm also included inside those barriers. The moment I thought to myself, everything I saw around me disappeared in an instant.


　　　　　　　　　　◇ ◇ ◇


Winter's night, Mr.?

　Even though they were in the middle of a battle, Yumina let out a dumbfounded voice.
　Fuyuya, who had cut down on the man named Yura, who was on top of the cocoon, blurred with the golden light and disappeared from the scene.
　Is it Fuyuya's [Instantaneous Movement 《Teleport》], Yumina thinks. However, the way he disappeared earlier was different from the [Instantaneous Movement 《 Teleportation》] he always uses.
　That mutant dominant species........Yura must have done something. He had erased the most obtrusive being from this place.
　Yumina.........no, his fiancée, including her, was quite upset.
　They were his fiancée and at the same time, they were his servants. These women were now able to sense his presence no matter where Fuyao was on this earth. They could feel a solid "connection" at any time.
　But now, that "connection" has been broken. I can't feel that anywhere in this world. The disappearance of his existence. A deep sense of loss, as if they had lost half of their own bodies, washed over the girls.

What is happening here...
Fuyao-san... Fuyao-san!
Sire.

　Everyone else is confused, to a greater or lesser extent. That's not good in this situation. Even though she knew that in her head, Yumina couldn't think of a way to break it out. Her techniques slowed down and her attention became distracted. The golden skeleton's attacks gradually pushed her to the edge.
　What should I do? Yumina, who was becoming teary-eyed, heard a pang!　There was an echoing sound of clapping of hands.

''Yes, Soko-maa-da. Everyone calms down.
Huh...!　Hanakoi's sister-in-law.

　Suddenly a familiar voice is heard, and I look around, but there is no figure. Ende and the others don't seem to have heard it either. The voice reached only themselves, Fuyao's fiancé, and they were the only ones who could hear it.

''Fuyao-kun is safe. I'm a bit isolated for a bit, but I'll be back soon, don't worry.

　It's not just a matter of time before you can get your hands on a new one. This sister-in-law, Ane, is a free-spirited person who likes to tease people, but she doesn't lie in such a place. If she says she will return, Fuyu Yoru will surely return. Yumina was able to be sure of that.
　Everyone else seemed to have recovered and started kicking away the golden skeleton that had been pushed around.

''More importantly, 'there', it's a bit dangerous, so we might as well run away.
What?

　As soon as Yumina responded to Hanakoi's voice, the ground suddenly began to shake with a Zuzu Zuzu........

''An earthquake?　But is this...?
Oh, space collapse...!

　Ende mumbles as he spits as he hits the golden skeleton.

''We'd better get away from this. Soon this space will collapse. We have to get out of here before we become collateral damage. Mel, can you do that for me?
'Yes. But what about Fuyao-san?
I don't think he's going to go down easy. I'm sure he'll be back soon on his own.

　Trust is a bit different, but Ende doesn't doubt for a minute that Fuyao is safe. He is his own master, the God of War. He is even higher than that, he is a member of the World God's household. Even if you kill him, he won't die. There was also a lot of resignation that it was just a loss to worry.
　Despite that Ende, Mel used the thorns extending from his own two hands to draw a circular formation, the Circle, with him at its center.

''All of you in here!　Hurry!

　One by one, one by one, they entered the circle while defeating the golden skeletons.
　The moment the last Ende jumped into the circle, the golden skeleton outside the circle was pierced by a thorn that flew out of Ibarra and blown away.
　At that moment, a spatial transfer by Mel begins and everyone disappears from the scene.
　In the space between the dimensions that continued to shake, mixed with the sound of the earth shaking louder and louder, there was a cracking sound of something breaking....
