Volume 12 Chapter 4 part5





Part 5


He went outside through a window of the Inner Court. It was Flight Magic.


It was surprisingly quiet.


The royal capital was too vast, and they said that the gate of the Third District was already in the middle of hostilities, but it could only be heard in the distance, so he didn't have a sense of urgency.


「It'd be nice……if they went back just like this.」


Unfortunately, that wish didn't reach heaven.


War cries gradually drew near.


「There is an enemy attack at the North Gate!! It's the Gelmedo Imperial Army!!」


At the time the morning sun showed itself, the enemy army attacked. The hostilities were finally opened.


In royal capital Sevenwall, there was a barrier that protected against the demonic, but it seemed that it didn't work on the sorcery devices.


To begin with, that was a barrier that protected against monsters──Demonic Beings, Demonic Beasts, and Demon Kings, as well as against magic.


It looks like it wasn't effective against sorcery devices which were from a different world view.


The Gelmedo Imperial Soldiers came attacking with things that looked like guns.


Against that, the Lifelia Kingdom Army also fought back with Magi Guns and Summoned Beasts.


Diablo watched that situation from the sky. In order to grasp the war situation, he floated with magic.


──They can't win.


The difference in firepower was large.


With there being ramparts, the morale of the Church soldiers was high.


Also, since the Gelmedo Imperial soldiers were fatigued as one would expect from doing a forced march and their successive battle, they were somehow able to struggle for supremacy.


Going by Girls Arms' specifications, the number of bullets of sorcery device guns were unlimited.


Compared to that, arrows, Magi Guns, and Summoned Beasts were consumables.


It was surely only a matter of time.


Should Diablo go out and mow them down with Maximum Magic?


──No, I shouldn't exhaust myself here. The opponent I should be fighting, is elsewhere.


A large sized enemy appeared at the North Gate.


A white Magimatic Sol!


A loud voice that sounded like it was going through a megaphone could be heard from its chest area.


『Ahー……ahー……can you hear me? Everyone of the Lifelia Kingdom……I am mech warrant soldier Rikka Biyatona of the Gelmedo Imperial Army. The Kingdom Army's attacks do not work on this Magimatic Sol, Biyatonos. If you surrender, we will guarantee the safety of the soldiers and the populace.』


It was the voice of a young girl that was still in her tender years.


Diablo thought.


──So it really is the same as Girls Arms. It's because it was a system where the heroines and the robots would become companions in a single set. The operator is probably a sweet young girl.


On top of the wall, a man in a religious uniform shouted.


「Do not be deceived! My family was taken by the Empire, and they never came back!」


As expected of the Church, they didn't lose in a war of words. He didn't know the authenticity of it, but now that they were told something like that, they couldn't obediently surrender.


「Fire!!」


The Church soldier commander gave the order with a loud voice.


From the top of the ramparts, a volley firing from bows and arrows and Magi Guns was poured onto the white Magimatic Sol──onto Biyatonos.


『Uwawa!?』


The opponent retreated while receiving the attack with its large shield.


It was enveloped by fumes.


Going "Waah!", the Lifelia Kingdom side raised cheers but……


When the smoke cleared up, those voices turned to despair.


There truly wasn't a single scratch on it.


「You're kidding me……」


「There's no way we can win against something like that……」


『Hoh……did you understand from that? Please stop your useless resistance, and surrender!』


「Well then, why don't we test this one out……《Lightning Storm》!!」


It was a level 140 magic that possessed Light and Wind attributes. A tornado would hold down the opponent's movements, and strike them at the same time with lightning.


Diablo fired that magic at the same time he got down to the ramparts.


The surrounding believers were surprised, and made a confused commotion.


He didn't have the leeway to worry about them.


──Honestly, if 《Lightning Storm》 gets nullified, I don't think that the Magimatic Sols will be able to be defeated by the MMORPG Cross Reverie side's attacks.


『GAAAAAAAAAAAAAHー!?』


Biyatonos was blown away.


It collapsed onto the ground.


『Uugh……Wh, what happened……?』


Its exterior was cracked, and fragments of it fell.


It seemed that damage went through.


Going "He did it!", the people of the Church raised cheers.


However, Diablo was silent.


──It's so hard~.


Even though the high level attack magic that was close to being maximum made a direct hit, it only made its armor crack a bit.


The Magimatic Sol's magic defense power was Demon King-class.


If this was the only enemy, and he had Rose and Sasala acting as the vanguard, he might be able to crush it using magic with a long chant.


Unfortunately, he hadn't called over neither Rose nor Sasala. It was because he couldn't leave the royal capital when there was no telling when the Imperial Army would be coming.


On top of that──


『Just what are you doing, Rikka-san!?』


Even a red Magimatic Sol came along.


The enemy was an army.


The total number was unclear, but at the very least, there wasn't just one of them.


『Ah, Eleena.』


『For an enemy that can't move from the top of the wall, you just need to mow them down!』


『But, since "that" might be here, they would be killed if I were to do that……』


『There's nothing but men here, so there's no problem! More importantly, if even you lose your mech suit, then this time for sure……』


『Ugh……』


He didn't know the meaning of their conversation, but he was able to predict that an attack was coming.


The new red Magimatic Sol readied a tough bow.


Diablo glared at the opponent.


──Huh, I, know this one?


He didn't play SLG Girls Arms for all that long, but this was the robot of a character that belonged to the unit as an initial member.


「If I remember correctly, it's the one that Eleena Luforia rode……the 《Red Brix》?」


『!? You, why……do you know about me!?』


He was surprised.


To think that even the character names would remain the same.


However, that wasn't something that would change their relationship with each other. This was a battlefield.


Eleena settled her breathing.


『Well, in the Gelmedo Imperial Army, the Magimatic Sols are the leading actors of the leading actors. And I am an existence that attracts the public gaze from even among those users after all──It isn't strange that even the enemy soldiers would know my name.』


『I wonder about thatー. Isn't it strange?』


『Shut it! Even if he is a fan of mine, we will crush him here!』


There was a feeling of deja vu from those girls' exchange.


It was a dialogue he saw in the game.


If he wasn't summoned by Rem and Shera, but appeared on their side──


Would he have become the commanding officer of those girls?


『Be defeated!』


The Red Brix fired its sorcery bow.


It was an attack that was handled the same way as Magi Guns.


In other words, it couldn't be reflected with Diablo's 《Demon King's Ring》.


──Recently, the ring hasn't had much time to shine, has it!?


「《Volcanic Wall》!」


Diablo brought forth a wall of flames, and intercepted the enemy's attack.


It endured up to three shots.


However, it was penetrated by the fourth one.


「Tsk……!!」


The top of the ramparts was attacked, and the Church soldiers raised screams and ran about trying to escape.


Diablo went down outside of the walls.


──It'll be bad if our soldiers decrease from the stray bullets of attacks that are aiming for me!


Even if he defeats the Magimatic Sols, it would be meaningless if the line of defense is overcome by the Imperial Army.


That being said, it would be even worse if he himself becomes unable to fight. The Magimatic Sols couldn't be resisted with the Church soldiers, and they would be one-sidedly trampled down.


──For this quest, while the Church soldiers are holding out, I need to either crush these two Magimatic Sols, or repel them!
