521 Defeat # 521, and a fire place thief.








 Gigantes separated from the supermassive golems and split into several giant golems.
 Since the head was apparently not combat-ready, it became a total of ten Golems: upper torso, lower torso, upper arms x 2, forearms x 2, thighs x 2, and lower legs x 2.
 I didn't realize it was the same combined golems as the Overlord.
 It wasn't so easy to fight now that they were separated and smaller. The ten aircraft that were separated were considerably larger than the Frame Gear. Each one is as big as an Overlord.
 Among them, the upper and lower fuselage are large. The height isn't that high, but they are thicker on the sides.
 So all of these planes have a power source, and each of them has its own Q Crystal, which is its brain? I wonder if that head part was the one that controlled it, and it was forced to be separated because it was destroyed?

"Ten planes over there, and ten here. Ten planes over there and ten here, that it might be just right.

 Yae's joyful voice can be heard over the speakers. What, you mean you're going to do it one-on-one 《Tai-Man》?

"Then I'll get the biggest one! Is that okay?

 Alice on the Overlord rides both fists together and gongs. The biggest one would be the upper torso, the chest golem. Are you okay? You just had your special 【Canon Knuckle】 attack blocked by that thing.
 However, I can say that it's a good idea for the biggest overlord on this side to take on that thing. Although it may be difficult for blows to pass through, the Overlord's canon knuckles aren't the only weapons it uses, so I'd like to think that it's probably safe.......

'First, let's take out the one machine that looks weak with many. Then after that, it would be easier to disperse and ensure that a few people kill the aircraft one by one.''

 I know what Yumina is trying to say. You're trying to ensure that we reduce the number of planes one at a time and get an advantage in terms of numbers, right?
 In shonen manga, when you are fighting in a five-on-five kind of fight, there is a development where the fighters go head-to-head one on one and fight separately, but in a melee, it is more reliable to aim at one person and crush him or her to make it five-on-four. Of course, since the opponent will also aim for it, it is necessary to quickly identify the weakest of the opponent's aircraft.
 And the opponent's aircraft to aim at were the two left and right thighs. Only those guys are much slimmer than the other planes.
 The original Gigantes had short legs, and it's not hard to see why. It's one of the parts of the giant body that used to support it, so it may be surprisingly hard.

'For now, it's the first move.

 Brünnhilde of Yumina holds a sniper rifle aimed at one of the thigh golems with a jackhammer.

''So you're going to unilaterally deliver our attack from outside of the opponent's range.

 The shoulder, leg, and chest armor of Lean's Grimgelde opened up, revealing multiple missile pods and a double-barreled Vulcan cannon. He aimed the arm gatling gun on his right arm and the five-shot Vulcan gun on his left hand's entire finger at the same thigh golems as Yumina, and took the stance of firing 《Full Burst》 all at once.

''Then let's decide on it all at once!

 The Valtraute that Lou rides on converts to a C-unit equipped with a large cannon, and locks on to it with its cannon pointed at the thigh golems like the two before it.

''Firing 《Fire》''

 Hundreds of bullets were fired at once, and one of the thigh golems turned into a beehive. The thigh, which apparently doesn't have as much armor as its chest, falls backwards on the spot as its armor is blown apart.
 In response to this, the remaining nine planes immediately began to move. There are three main types of aircraft: those that take a defensive posture, those that move and continue to move, and those that counterattack.
 The two upper arms seem to have a long-range attack, and they shoot missile pods out of their shoulder parts from the Gigantes, pointing them at you.
 Yumina and the others responded to this and scattered, avoiding the rain of missiles.
 In the meantime, the thigh golems, which had been hit by concentrated fire, stood up, but their armor was stripped away and they were spewing what seemed to be smoke and steam from various parts of their bodies. Has it not yet stopped functioning after receiving that many bullets? That's pretty stubborn──.

【Canon Knuckle!

 The next moment, the thigh golems were cruelly shattered into pieces by the rocket punches fired from Alice's riding overlord.
 As expected, it was impossible to regenerate after being destroyed to that extent.
 That's nine planes left.

"Let's destroy the other one!

 At Yumina's words, the trio of long-range attackers once again focused their fire on the other thigh golem. This time, Linse's Helmviges flew in from the sky as a counterattack, slicing the slender thigh golems in half as they passed each other with the crystalline blades in their wings.
 There are now eight planes left.
 Two of the upper arms fire missiles at the Helmvige circling above.
 In that rain of bullets, Linse's Helmviges continued to fly, fluttering and fluttering and dodging everything paper thin. When did he have that kind of piloting skill........ Some ace pilot, huh?
 Come to think of it, when I went to Earth on my honeymoon, I had easily cleared a shooting experience game at an amusement facility.

"I heard that the guy who was going to shoot that missile was matched up with Hilda-dono and me.
''That's right. I guess I'm in the right place.

 Yae's Schwertrite and Hilda's Sieglune run towards the two upper arms.
 The two upper arms are carrying missile pods on their backs, Gatling guns on their waists and large shields on either side of their shoulders, and it's obvious from looking at them that they are long-range support types. They do have some kind of spear, though.
 Once they jump into the bosom, Yae and the others, who are strong in white warfare, will have an advantage. Normally, it would seem impossible to deal with the barrage of bullets, but I think the two of us can do it. It's enough to knock down flying bullets........

"What do you want to do about the two forearms?
"Looks slow. But it's hard.

 As Sakura replied to Yumina, the two forearms look quite rugged, with only parts of both fists. They are stocky and seem to have thick armor.

I'll do it! I'll crush both planes with Else Okaa's pile bunker! 'That's good, lady!'
''Yes, but.... Sakura-chan, can you give me some support?
Hm. Okay, I'll take care of Linnaeus. I'll protect Linnaeus. I give you my word.

 Apparently, the two forearms will be dealt with by Linne's Gerhilde and Sakura's Rosweisse.
 Indeed, Sakura's Rosweisse might be able to make that thick armor brittle with the resonant attack that comes out of the symphonic horn.
 Perhaps inspired by seeing Linne, Alice pointed at the chest golem with a shiver.

''I'll do that big one!
Then Ende is the second largest.
"Hey! What do you think you're doing?

 In response to my words, Ende's rebuttal came from the speakers. Shut up. I know you can do a resonance attack just like Los Vise. It's only natural to assign it to a troublesome aircraft.

The only thing that's not a problem is that even Alice wants to see her father defeat the enemy in style, right?
'Yes! I want to see it!'
'Oh, yeah? Then, father, let's go for it.

 Cholo. Hearing Ende's delirious voice, I sincerely thought the parent idiot was easy to use. Eh? What can I say about people? Haha, please don't put me with that one.
 Now, then, so you'll be dealing with the two lower legged planes with the rest of Yumina, Linse, Lou and Lean?
 The two lower-legged planes were equipped with warped large swords on both arms, in a form that looked like they were for white knight combat. They don't have swords. Both arms are swords.
 Its fuselage is not as large as the Overlord's, but it is larger than the Frame Gear's fuselage.
 Even though they are two against four, Yumina and the others are mostly long-range support types. The key to the fight will be to maintain a firm distance between you and your opponent so as not to let them get too close.

''Let's go!

 Quickly, Linne's Gerhilde ran towards one of the forearm golems.
 As if in pursuit, a singing magic is released from the cherry blossom Losweisse.
 
 It's a song by a famous American rock band, and I'm pretty sure the lyrics are about a girl I admired in high school who was shocked to find herself on the pin-up page of a men's magazine....
 Sakura also wears a wedding ring she got from the World God, so I'm sure she understands the English of the lyrics....
 The impact of the resonant attack released from Rosweisse was tremendous, creating a small crack in the armor of the forearm golem.

''Hissatsu! Pyle, Bunker!

 Linne's Gerhilde jumped into the bosom of the forearm golems and released a crystal-clear armored right fist. Without a moment's notice, the pile bunker planted in his arm was launched and drilled into the cracked enemy's armor.
 With a single blow, the armor on the front of the fuselage was rattled off, revealing the thin inner armor.

"One more shot!

 This time Gerhilde's left fist snarls. Don! Bang! And in rapid succession, a pile bunker was struck, piercing the thin internal armor. The forearm golems wobbled and moved as if they were convulsing and fell forward.
 The forearm golem that fell in front of Gerhilde, who quickly avoided it, stopped moving as it was. A blow? No, two blows.

''Another one!

 When Gerhilde tries to head to the other forearm golem, that one is equipped on his back (?) The left hand of Gigantes, which was being used, was shot out like a rocket.

''Wow!''

Linne tried to avoid it in a hurry, but it was only slightly slower, and was caught by that huge left hand.
 Mu, it's bad! I have to go get her. And just as I was leaning forward, four dagger-shaped flying control swords 《Fragarach》 were shot out from Sakura's Rosweisse, concentrating on and piercing the base of the thumb of Linne's left hand where she was caught.
 The moment the glari and left thumb loosened, Gerhilde escaped from within his hand.

''Oh no, that was awful.......!
"I was caught off guard because the first plane was so easy. That was a near-surprise, so you should be more careful.
"Yes...

 Rinne's voice sounded a little depressed as Sakura chided her. Well, it's true that the first plane was decided beautifully. I feel like I can't blame them for thinking that this is easy.
 When I looked to the side, I saw that Alice's Overlord and Gigantes' chest deformed into a large golem had combined their hands and were beginning to push each other as if they were comparing forces.

''Hah!''

 The Overlord's basic power output is above this Regingrave, all frame gear maxed out.
 The boosters on its back roared and pushed the Overlord forward.
 Eventually, as if he couldn't bear it anymore, the chest golem pointed what looked like a Vulcan cannon that was equipped next to his head at the Overlord's face.

''I won't let you!

 In the next moment, Alice vigorously head-butted the chest golem's face with such a cry. The sudden blow causes the chest golem to recoil on its back and fall down with a ground shaking.
 What is it........ It's as if I'm watching professional wrestling.
 The fallen chest golem quickly gets up and unleashes its big fist towards the overlord. Alice caught it with her left arm and, as a counterattack, slammed a right fist into the opposite direction.
 It should have entered the body in a decent way, but the chest golems didn't move slightly. Is that guy's armor going to absorb damage after all?
 Did the damage from the headbutt earlier simply throw him off balance? It's a plane that's close to an inverted triangle.
 The chest golems continue to randomly hit 《rush》 without defending themselves, as if they are confident in their defense. The overlord's side is in a constant state of defense.

''You...''

 The giant drill attached to the Overlord's legs separates and is attached to his right arm. Exploiting an opening in the chest golems that continue to hit wildly, the right arm of the overlord equipped with the drill pierced the body of the enemy.
 However, the penetration was only slightly beyond the tip, and was still protected by the rubbery armor.

''From here!

 With Alice's cry, the drill begins to rotate at high speed. The drill that spun squeaks and squeaks and squeaks, little by little, enters the rubber armor.

''Rose Crystal Spine [Prisma Rose]!

 Pow! And then a crack appears in the rubber armor. A crystal thorn vine or a crystal thorn vine flew out from inside the chest golem's armor and entangled the opponent. Eventually, the chest golem was sewn to the ground by several thorn vines and stopped moving.
 Did he activate the [Rose Crystal Vine [Prisma Rose]] inside the armor he had pried open with the drill?
 So the overflowing crystal vine rose destroyed the chest golems from the inside.
 But with this, the contents would be in pieces........ It looks like Kuhn is going to scream in front of the monitor........

'I did it, dad!

 As for the Ende's that Alice called out to, they were repeatedly battling an abdominal golem.
 The abdominal golem is a golem with thick, short legs and long, thin hands, and although it moves slowly, its arms are equipped with Gatling guns.
 Ende's dragon knight 《Dragoon》 dodged the rain of bullets being fired at, dodging to the right and left with its mobility.
 That plane that emphasizes speed, the abdomen golems can't even hit that plane with a single shot.

It's a good thing that you're able to get your hands on these things.

 The dragon knight 《Dragoon》 pulls out two small swords from his waist and holds them in both hands.
 He accelerates the high speed rollers on both feet and slashes off the thin arms as they pass each other. I'm going to be able to turn and slash off the rest of the arms as we pass each other again.
 The dragon knight "Dragoon" runs across the earth in all directions, slicing through the belly golems. It's not a good idea to be able to have a good time with them.

''This is the end.''

 The dragon knight 《Dragoon》's small sword pierced the chest (complicated) of the abdominal golem, and bosh! And with a smoke of glittering magic element, the opponent stopped moving.
 It was a one-sided fight. Well, it wasn't a good match... or maybe it should have been Ende.

'What do you think, Alice! Your father is pretty good, too, alright!''

 Ende looked back at Alice, but her beloved daughter was already gone.
 After finishing her own battle, Alice left her father behind and quickly went to join everyone else.

''Pity...!

 d*mn, my eyes are hot..... You worked so hard, Dad. That feeling is understandable to me now.
 Pursuing Alice's overlord who was heading towards Yumina and the others, Ende also drove the dragon knight 《Dragoon》.
 When I looked over, I saw that Rinne had also just put away the second forearm golem.
 Yae and Hilda, who were fighting the upper arm golems with missile pods, also seemed to have finished that battle. Of course, they were unharmed.
 All that's left is the two planes in the lower legs that Yumina and the others are holding down? It's already two against ten. That's a victory. I don't think they were that strong.
 No, the state of the combined Gigantes was his true strength. It's just that he was defeated without being able to demonstrate his abilities because of the separation.
 If you think about it that way, the blow to the head gorem that caused the separation may have been a bitter blow to Gigantes.
 Linne is the MVP in this one. As expected of my daughter. Mm.


          ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇


Oh, my goodness, it's getting really interesting, considering all the noise you're making.
That's a decisive weapon, isn't it? Where in the world has it been lying...

 At a considerable distance from Eisenburg, where Fuyuya and the others are fighting, there are two shadows watching the battle.
 One is a red-haired woman wearing an iron domino mask.
 The other is a man wearing a helmet that looks like a diving helmet.
 The woman carried an orange battle cudgel, the Mace, and the man carried a deep blue hatchet, the Hatchet.
 The 'Apostle of the Evil God', Tangerine and Indigo had received a report from Golem, who had them monitoring this area, and had come here with the transfer magic held by Indigo's hatchet 《Hatchet》, Deep Blue.
 Fuyu Yoru had applied [Search] to the vicinity beforehand, but he missed it because it was not a 'Demon Golem' that was monitoring him, but an ordinary golem.

''That's Brunhild's giant golem........ I've never seen it before, but it seems to have quite a good performance.
'Ha. Is that really going to help us achieve our longed-for goal?

 Tangerine spat out in a petulant manner. She was a little offended by Indigo's words, which could be considered a declaration of defeat.

'Ma(¦),' she said. 'Scarlet will eventually build an aircraft that will surpass that one. That's why I went around the world and got the Ark. With the legacy left behind by Crom Ranches, that's not impossible. That will be the foundation for the coming of the New God.
Huh, that's a lot of confidence. Do you attribute this piety to your being an ex-priest? I'll be happy as long as this world is busted up, so I'll pray to God that it is.

 Boringly, Tangerine re-carried the orange war cudgel 《Mace》 "Halloween" on her shoulder. Although these women call themselves the 'Apostles of the Evil God', not all of them are devout believers.

''However, it's not worth it to go back like this. Shall I prepare a little souvenir for Scarlett?''

 Then, inside the diving helmet, Indigo smiled wryly.


          ◇ ◇ ◇


Cannon-knuckle!

 Alice's Overlord blows the last one, the lower leg golem's upper body to smithereens. Aaaaah, this one is going to get complained about by Kuhn, the Doctor and the others.

'Yes! I beat them all!

 I can hear a happy voice from Lynne on Gerhilde. So that's all taken care of. It was easier than I thought it would be.
 I mean, I didn't really do anything in the end....
 Come to think of it, this doesn't look bad to the people watching on the other side of the monitor, does it?
 You're a lousy husband who makes your wife fight all the time and you're the high priest....
 It's bad, I have to work hard at least at the end. At the time I was about to open the 【Storage】, blue bubbles rippled around Gigantes' head golems and chest golems with a gurgling sound, and with a thump, they disappeared as if they were falling into the water.

''Wha...?
"Mr. Winter's Night! Three o'clock, there's someone on the cliff!

 When I pointed Regingrave's camera at Yumina's voice, the two shadows on the cliffs sank down and disappeared, just like Golem and the others earlier.
 I could only see them for a moment, but there was a red-haired woman and one that looked like she was wearing a diving suit. Don't tell me........it's an apostle of an evil god!

Search! "Apostle of the Evil One!
"Search complete. ..............................End of search. No match.

 d*mn, I knew it was blocked by warding! I tried searching for parts of Gigantes, but I couldn't find it there either. Isn't it just transference magic? Don't tell me this isn't 'cross-space transfer'...?

Oh, I've just been robbed by a fireman...

 You're the same as the Ark... I'm sure there are people on the other side that can use transference magic as well. It's still tricky........
 Furthermore, I quickly stored the rest of Gigantes' parts in the 【Storage】 before they were stolen. Only the head and chest parts were stolen? Was the fact that he only stole two of them limited to what he could transfer, or did he not need anything else but those two?
 You've done it..... Is this completely a declaration of war?
 As I was pensive in the cockpit of the Regingrave, the phone set in front of me rang with a ringtone.
 Ugh. It's from Kuhn. Maybe, or rather, he was definitely watching the whole thing on the monitor....
 But this was an unavoidable force of nature, or perhaps there was no way to deal with it if I didn't know about it beforehand....... Is it my fault?
 Stop making excuses and get out of here! The ring tone continues to ring like a demon, but I am there, unable to press the call button. Huh.....
