Volume 1 - Ch 2
Kizuna awoke after being unable to sleep well.
His body was heavy.
After all, yesterday was completely wretched for him.
My fatigue, is still not going awayyy-!?
To wake up even later than this me, there is a degree even if you want to slack off.
About 30 cm in front of his eyes, there were red eyes staring at him.
It was Chidorigafuchi Aine in her uniform appearance, she was lying on her belly above the futon.
Yo, you! Why are you here!?
I have come for yobai. (TN: stealing into a girls bedroom at night to make love)
This is morning!
Isnt yobai called as an early-morning attack?
No, it feels like that, but its different somehow!
When Aine tilted her head, her silver hair smoothly flowed down on his chest. A nice smell gently drifted in the air. Even through the futon, he could feel the breasts of Aine which were full with the sense of weight.
Putting aside the yobai, she might be really serious in her early-morning attack statement. After all, yesterday her half-naked body was touched around, her naked breast was rubbed, and the whole particulars of it were screened in front of the whole student body. Looking from her point of view, she would surely feel embarrassed.
Then how are you feeling I wonder? Feel excited?
Ha?
So you cannot even say any word. I wonder if far from being excited, you are now already becoming an animal in mating season instead?
Im not! Rather, a human wont have anything like that!
Just what was going on with this girl? Wasnt she coming here for her retaliation on him?
How strange. According to my material, an erotic event should occur when a girl comes to wake up a boy in the morning though.
What kind of material is that! Its fine already, just move away. Im already awake.
Looking at the clock beside the pillow, the time was already 8 oclock. Although the dormitory and the high school building were near, he wanted to go to school with some time left because this was his first day.
This place was Ataraxias student dormitory.
After the commotion yesterday, he was forcefully taken away somewhere. He didnt bring a single thing from his residence in Tokyo float, but this dormitory had already provided the full set of furniture for the resident, so he was not inconvenienced at all. Home appliances like television and audio were completely provided here that he had no complaint about it, and the furniture and equipment were so splendid that he wanted to doubt whether this place was a high class hotel.
Most of all, not all the rooms were splendid like this. Only members of Amaterasu who possessed Heart Hybrid Gear were treated specially like this, so he heard.
When Aine stood up from the bed, she ripped off the futon from Kizuna.
Wa-! Dont pull it off so suddenly!
Ignoring Kizunas words, Aine was glaring at Kizuna with a grim look.
Then should we begin?
Hearing those words, he felt a pressure that was nearly a killing intent.
Do, dont tell me as expected, she is coming for me?
Wha, what is it?
Of course, its for activity of love. With the flow until now, the love between you and me should be heated up enough correct?
Aine took off her jacket and threw it away.
Nothing is heating up for even a millimeter. Rather Im shrinking here from terror.
You are really noisy about every little thing. Its fine already so lets just do it quickly.
Aine grasped the collar of Kizunas sleepwear and took it off with a force that almost tore off the front button.
Kizunas collarbone until his stomach became exposed.
Uwaaaaaa a?
Aine froze while still grasping the sleepwear. She was staring fixedly at Kizunas upper body without averting her eyes. Her cheeks were also slightly colored red.
No, now! Quickly do Heart Hybrid with me!
Wa, wait! Just wait a second, why are you rushing this much!
At that time, the door was knocked.
Hida-kun? If you dont wake up soon, you will be late to the homeroom you know?
That voice was, Himekawa Hayuru.
It would be terrible if she found him in this kind of situation.
It was inexcusable for me to be angry yesterday with you without giving you the chance to explain yourself. Perhaps you also have your own circumstances excuse me, are you there?
Uwaaaa! What, what to do!? But, there is nothing that I can do!
He could do nothing but pray so that Himekawa would leave just like that!
By any chance, if you are still sleeping then I have to wake you up then excuse me.
Just limited to this situation he was being really troubled from that kind heart!
Ara? You are he re, are
Himekawas eyes could see nothing except Kizuna whose upper body was naked and Aine whose uniform was disordered hugging each other on top of the bed. Moreover, Aine was straddling Kizunas waist.
Three seconds later, Himekawa reached her own conclusion.
Illicit sexual relationship ho, how shameless in this sacred dormitory, to, to- what an, indecent act! Yo, you are trying to rape Aine-san again like this! You cant be forgiven anymore!
Youre wrong! No matter how you see it, Im the one being pinned down here! Im the one getting attacked!
Haa? You are still saying idiotic things like that! Are you thinking that such unsightly excuse can possibly be believed? A girl attacking a boy, how nonsensical.
No, that was the truth though!
Hayuru. Its hard to say this but, what this sexual offender is saying is true.
Ha?
The one attacking, is this me.
That, thats
With a face that expressed how she couldnt believe it, Himekawa staggered on the spot.
There is the need to perform Hybrid Heart even for a second faster, so this cant be helped.
Aine puffed up her chest proudly.
No just why are you looking that haughty?
But, I wonder if this is what is called as a female carnivore? Its obvious but I love meat you know. Especially the specialty product of Mie float, the Matsusaka beef, its really delicious. Kanagawa floats Hayama beef is also hard to discard. I wonder what kind of meat Hayuru likes?
Thi this is, my limit already. The, the both of you
Himekawas shoulders were shaking in fury.
Ill punish you! Neros!!
Red light filled the room, a red armor was fixed on Himekawas body.
Thi, this girl-! She is putting on her Heart Hybrid Gear!
Le, lets calm down and have a talk! It should be strictly prohibited to have a personal with by putting on our gear!
No need to worry. After all this is an official duty as a public morals committee member!
Himekawa drew out the sword hanging on her hips and slashed at him.
Youre forcing your own rule too much!
Zeros.
Aine too materialized her gear and stood in the way of Neros.
However there shouldnt be any way to block the sword of Neros that was swung down.
Something like catching a blade with bare hands was an impossible story from the beginning. The empty handed Zeros could only get cut down like thatwas how it was supposed to be.
Kuh-!
However, the sword was stopped.
Zeros moved with amazing speed and stopped not the sword, but restrained the hand that was holding the handle of the sword.
Impudent act.
In this range, you are no match for Zeros.
Is that so? Such thing wont be understood unless we test it.
Himekawa showed a belligerent smile.
You, you girls! Dont fight in someones room! The scale of your fight is
After that, Kizunas room met with devastating damage after a defense and offense of less than ten seconds.
What a terrible experience right from the morning.
Kizuna exited the dormitory and headed towards the school building.
It seemed that his room couldnt be used for a while. Fortunately, there was still an empty room and he could exchange his room.
The two perpetrators were severely reprimanded by the dormitory head. Due to that they might arrive late to school.
Well, they reaped what they sowed.
He was thinking of going by using public transportation, but he would still make it in time even by walking.
He went by walking while viewing the townscape at the same time.
The transportation in this Ataraxia was mainly underground trains, thinking from how the enemy might attack. The inside of the underground train could also be used as a shelter in emergency time.
Next was the unmanned electronic automobile, but it was applied as a taxi. It was convenient how it could be used to go everywhere no matter the route.
While thinking of such things, he was walking through the roads that were cleanly maintained.
It seemed that, somehow, around this area was not affected by the battle yesterday.
Both sides of the road were planted with trees, giving tranquility to the people walking down the road. Passing through that road were many students heading to the school.
Kizuna planned to walk mixing with those students, but he noticed something strange.
There was no one coming closer around Kizuna.
Everyone was getting out of the way from Kizunas vicinity, they were whispering gossip from afar.
Aah I see. So this is also, reaping what I sowed is it?
He could listen to the whispering voices.
Thats Eros.
Eros you know.
The Eros.
Aah-, geez! Ero, ero, how noisy!
He made his steps faster as if to run away toward the high school building.
When he passed through the gates, he could immediately see the school building standing tall. Its steel frame was exposed, the wall was made using composite materials, it looked rustic but it was a cool building.
He entered the building from the entrance.
But everywhere he went he was met with curious stares and malicious gossip. It was wholly uncomfortable.
Lets not pay it any mind and head to the classroom. Though, this situation will also happen in the class too.
Err the second year first group if I remember right.
The high school part was largely divided into battle department and research department. He was in battle department so this first group must be a battle department was how it should be.
He confirmed the plate of the classroom and opened the door.
The attention was gathered at him all at once, but the students immediately averted their gazes.
But among them there was only one person raising her hand smiling at him, a female student.
Haai, Kizuna. I wonder what kind of business you have in my class?
It was Yurisia Farandol.
Blonde haired and blue eyes, her uniform was filled to bursting with her breasts and waist. As usual, she had a showy appearance. She was by no means gaudy, she was like a high grade precious stone where he could feel her fine quality and elegance.
Also there were five, six female students that seemed to have fine upbringing surrounding around Yurisia.
Wai-, Yurisia-sama! You must not call out to that man.
Thats right! Exchanging word with someone like that will dirty Yurisia-sama!
The hanger-on group were glaring at Kizuna with eyes filled with hostility.
How amazing. When alls said and done, she is like the queen of the high school.
Now, now, everyone. He is a transfer student. Its no good to not be kind to him
My, how kind you are, Yurisia-sama.
As expected from the queen of Ataraxia!
Somehow, rather than a clique it looked more like a religion.
Wait a second the lecher over there! Yurisia-sama is the ace of the American army and the flower of high society, she is a lady of American celebrity. Its a dream that cannot possibly be granted for someone like you to exchange words with her. Dont come closer to her in a radius of 5 meters from now on!
Now that she mentioned it, he had watched the news before that America dispatched their Heart Hybrid Gear to Japan. If he remembered right it was something about advantageous deployment for the strategy in the Pacific Ocean as allied nations, or returning the favor for Japans provision of Heart Hybrid Gear technology to America, that kind of content.
So that pilot in the news was this Yurisia Farandol.
Right, right, how awe-inspiring that is. I understood already.
Whats with that attitude of yours!
At the other side of the angry hangers-on, Yurisia was looking at Kizuna and sent him a wink.
That act and expression of hers made his heart jump for a second unconsciously.
Okay, everyone take your seat. The homeroom is starting now
A female teacher wearing a red jersey entered the room.
Her hair was carelessly tied behind her and tiresome aura was coming out from her whole body. He guessed that her age was around the later half of the twenties. Even though she was a beauty when he looked carefully, there was the feeling that it was ruined by none other than herself.
Aa Hida-kun. You neglected going to the staff room and came here havent you
Ah is that so, Im sorr
Right, its fine so dont let it bother you. I am Sakasaki Saki. Your homeroom teacher.
With a sleepy gaze, she waved her hand tiresomely.
This is a good timing, okay, come to the front.
Obeying what Sakasaki-sensei told him, he stood at the podium in front of the class and looked over the class.
There he felt an uncomfortable feeling.
Err, sensei there are a lot of girls here isnt it?
A lot, that expression was not an accurate one. The correct one was that, there was nobody but girls here.
Hm? Because this is an all-girl class after all.
Eh?
Look, you students are boys and girls in that age right? Especially the stimulation of pilot suits are strong see. So that there will be no mistakes occurring, the classes and training are divided between the boys and girls. If I have to make a reference, this first group is the top of the battle department female group. This class is called Flourish class.
He didnt know at all that was how the class was divided.
Then, its really bad for me to be here. I have to quickly go to the boy class.
Sakasaki-sensei firmly took hold of the wrist of Kizuna who was trying to get out of the class.
Aa, its fine, its fine, your place is right here.
Haa?
Then, you all know him but Ill give an introduction one more time. This is Hida Kizuna-kun who newly enters this class. Everyone, get along well with him. In that kind of meaning.
Teacher, please dont say anything like in that kind of meaning.
The door of the class was opened loudly and Himekawa made her entrance. Behind her there was also Aine.
Oh, Himekawa and Chidorigafuchi. Its rare for you two to wake up late.
Himekawa walked until the teacher podium with loud steps before she pointed at Kizuna.
I didnt wake up late! Its the fault of that man over there that I came this late! Rather than that, what is the meaning of a boy joining the girl class!? Such thing cannot be permitted!
Yep. Sensei also thinks so, but this is actually permitted.
Please explain!
Only in this kind of time Kizuna and Himekawa were in the same opinion.
Th, thats right. Besides, sensei too already said it yourself just now. That we all are boys and girls in that age and so this division is so that no mistakes will happen.
Aah, rather you need to do that mistake. With all you got.
What the helllll, is thatttt!
Because this is the strategy so it cant be helped. Everyone too, do your best in various things with Hida-kun, okay? Errr, yesterday the seats had been rearranged to make place for your sitting. Over there, near the window.
The seat the teacher pointed at was located behind Himekawa, his right was Aine, and in front of Yurisia, then at the left was a window where he could always dive out for the next world, that location was perfectly surrounded by enemies from all sides, it was truly a land of death where he was isolated and helpless.
No, no matter where he was sitting, there was no safe area for him in this class. The cold gazes of all the class members were mercilessly shaving off his will power.
When the morning class was over, Kizunas will power was already endlessly close to zero.
Haa Im tired.
Afternoon break. Kizuna exited the school building as if running away. He couldnt bear the gazes of his classmates that were filled with disgust. The atmosphere made him feel like he was going to choke, that when he went outside he breathed in relief.
I wonder what I should do about lunch maybe it would be better if I asked about the school cafeteria.
However, if he took a step outside the school, there would be a lot of food stores outside.
When he peeked outside, there were a lot of students having fun talking while having their meals.
If it was like this, then even without a school cafeteria there would be no problem at all.
After hesitating, in the end he entered a fast food store that was safe.
However, the moment Kizuna entered the store, the bustling atmosphere inside froze.
Eh? Wh, what?
O, oi. That guy, thats Eros.
Dont look, it seems that you will get pregnant if your eyes meet his you know?
I heard that the second year Chidorigafuchi and Himekawa had already become his prey.
Is the implementation for the assassination plan not finished yet?
Shh, about that talk
Oi oi oi! There is a dangerous talk thats not a laughing matter mixed there!
Kizuna exited the fast food store to escape, but on the outside, gazes from the girls as if they were looking at something filthy were directed at him while gazes filled with envy and grudge were glared at him from the boys.
Aah can I keep living here like this?
Hida-kun.
Kizuna was surprised from hearing a voice calling his name.
So there was a person who would talk to him in this Ataraxia.
However, he comprehended it after seeing the owner of the voice.
Chidorigafuchi huh what business do you have with me?
What are you going to do for lunch?
Uu
He couldnt answer. Honestly, he didnt have anymore prospect.
Is that so? If so then come with me. Ill bless you with a meal.
Are you treating me, or are you saying that Ill be the one treating
However, there was nobody else that would eat together with him. In the first place, it didnt seem that he would be able to obtain any lunch. As far as he was concerned, he had no other option.
Got it. Ill accept your gift. Then, where to?
Follow me.
He was led into a forest where there was no human presence.
When they passed through out of the forest, there was a terrace that faced the sea with chair and table put there.
Or perhaps it should be said, that this place was right near the spot where he met Chidorigafuchi for the first time.
Kizuna nervously sat side-by-side with Aine.
When Aine opened the wrapping that she was holding, a bento box appeared from inside.
Here, eat up.
Inside the box were crammed with beautiful sandwiches.
Oo-! Dont tell me this is handmade?
Thats right. For you to be able to eat the handmade bento by this me, you are truly the happiest person in the world.
He didnt know about that, but, anyway, this was a lunch that he had prepared to give up just now. Lets just eat it gratefully.
Itadakimasu. (TN: Itadakimasu, a phrase Japanese people say before eating.)
Tuna sandwich, egg sandwich, he ate them one after another.
Oo-, its really delicious! But, this
Is there something?
No, its like the taste is really similar with the sandwiches sold in the convenience store.
Of course its like that. Its something I bought from the convenience store.
Then this is not handmade!
I cut them into half and put them into the bento box.
What kind of explanation is that! If thats true, then even heating instant curry counts as handmade, putting hot water inside cup ramen also counts as handmade cooking!?
Then Ill ask you this, where does the definition of handmade cooking begin and where does it end?
Eh-?
For example, if you buy bread and tuna can in a convenience store, then can you call it handmade cooking if you jammed the tuna between the bread I wonder? I cannot feel any fundamental difference from there, though.
No, well, certainly that might be true but
If you talk about handmade cooking in that kind of meaning, then as expected you will need to grow the wheat and catch the tuna fish from the place where they set out, you have to do everything from the start. However, if Hida-kun tells me to do that no matter what, then I think Ill submit permission to leave school and board a tuna fishing fish.
Im sorry! Chidorigafuchis handmade lunch is delicious!
Its fine if you understand.
What a tiresome woman, this girl.
Right right, also there is one more thing, there is something I want you to eat.
Hm? What. Something like a desert?
Aine stood up and stood in front of Kizuna.
And then, she pinched her skirt and slowly lifted it up.
Wha-!?
To call this a desert, Ill take off my hat towards the extent of your sleaziness.
Just who means that! Its fine already, just put back down your skirt! Its totally visible from here!
Youve seen it?
N, no just barely, only almost, I didnt see it though.
However, the thighs that could be seen from the gap between the skirt and the over-knee-socks were dazzling. And then, if the skirt was raised one more millimeter, the panty would be visible.
In the case of this morning she was also like this, but, did this girl not have this thing called shame?
When he stared fixedly at Aines face, her cheeks seemingly had a reddish tinge.
Look here by any chance, are you actually embarrassed?
There is no way thats true. Look at how calm I am.
When he saw her wrist, the finger tips that were pinching the skirt were shaking.
How is it? It seems that by doing an act that cannot be done inside the school, the feeling of immorality gives rise to excitement.
Kizuna gulped his saliva.
If you want to see, its fine to flip it over you know.
Her voice seemed calm, but her expression looked anxious somehow.
This girl, actually she was unreasonably forcing herself wasnt she?
Should he test it?
Kizuna slowly reached out his hand to her skirt.
Aines thighs quivered shiveringly.
As I thought, you are really forcing yourself right?
I wonder what are you babbling about, you animal. There is no way that this me will falter from just this much.
But, you are shaking you know?
This is warriors excitement from the anticipation of obtaining the [Corruption Armament] from now on. Im really happy I cannot bear it.
Corruption armament?
What is that this thing called [Corruption Armament]?
Its fine already, just strip this off. I dont mind at all so just this much.
Aines cheeks reddened and she averted her eyes.
I, if you say until that much then
After Kizuna pinched the skirts hem, he slowly lifted it up.
He could almost see the area where her long and slender two legs were connected into one.
And then, finally that summit became visible.
At the other side, he could peek at her ass right from the front.
This was, a girls panty?
Err, Chidorigafuchi-san.
What is it?
This is a pilot suit isnt it?
Yes. I dont know when I will need to scramble out after all. Naturally Im wearing it under my uniform.
Honestly, this was also erotic so it was completely okay! But, for some reason he felt cheated!
No doubt you are aroused right? Now, with this, all the preparations are complete. Quickly make the Corruption Armament
Err
There was a voice that was not Kizunas or Aines.
Without them realizing it, there was a girl standing nearby. She was a middle school student but her height was short like an elementary student.
Craaaaaaaaaaaaaap!
Just what kind of scene he showed to this innocent girl!
Like this aint I completely a pervert! A hundred percent molester!
That girl, with her petite body and beautiful blonde hair completely looked like a westerner. Her large eyes opened wide in perfect circle looking at him.
Perhaps he had already planted a trauma inside a girl this cute that she wouldnt be able to forget for her whole life.
However, if that happened then I would continue to live inside that girl forever This is not the time to think something stupid! Ive got to think of an emergency countermeasure now!
By the way Hida-kun. I wonder if you can release you hand from my skirt soon? Its a little bad to show this in front of an underclassman I think.
GYAAAAA, Im still flipping over her skirttt!
Kizuna separated his hand in panic and desperately began to make an excuse.
Y-, you! This is not how it looks like, by no means Im doing something that I need to feel guilty about!
That girl tilted her head a little with a puzzled face.
Yes. This is a mission right desu? I thought that this might be the strategy that commander talked about yesterday desu, but am I mistaken desu?
Eh what?
Excuse me for my lateness desu. I am called Sylvia Silvercut. I was told by the commander to bring Hida-senpai to her desu.
She smiled in a friendly manner and bowed cutely.
He left Chidorigafuchi on that spot and was led away by Sylvia out to the street. There, a large limousine was stopping at the roadside.
The door was opened by Sylvia and he boarded the car as he was told.
Kizuna, sorry to be sudden like this.
Nee-chan!?
After Sylvia also got in, the car started to move without sound.
Kizuna stared at his sister sitting in front of him in a glare.
There is a lot of things I want to ask Nee-chan.
What a coincidence. There is also a lot that I want to talk with you. But, I think its fine to do that after we arrive, first lets finish the small chores.
From her bosom, Reiri took out an appliance that looked like a small communication device.
Im giving this to you.
At a glance, the thing looked like a smart phones show model.
He recognized this thing now that he thought back, the students here were all using this.
That also doubles as a students identification card, a communication device exclusive for Ataraxia. From all sorts of contact methods, schedule, attendance and grades, health condition and the likes, everything is managed by that device.
When Kizuna touched the screen, an interface he had never seen before was booted up.
Heee this is cool.
Yours is specially made, there is an Amaterasu icon there correct? Try to start up that application.
Kizuna did as he was told and tapped Amaterasus mark that was designed as wings and heart mark. Thereupon, the names of Aine and the others, and all sorts of parameters were displayed.
What is this? From height and weight even the three sizes are shown here!? Isnt this personal information?
Thats why no one but you can see it.
Aah, is that so no, isnt that also no good?
From basic specs until their vital sign and current location, all of those are being monitored in real time. There is an item named Hybrid Count there right?
There was a graph signed with a heart mark there.
Thats the remaining energy of the Heart Hybrid Gear. Do Heart Hybrid before the gauge enters the yellow zone.
Yellow zone was starting from 25%, and under 10% was the red zone.
When the energy remaining is less than 5%, it will become hard to even maintain the Heart Hybrid Gear. Pay careful attention so that the energy wont get lower than that. Understand?
Just wait a second! About that story, since yesterday its just full of things that I dont get. Just what in the world is happening, explain it to me so I can understand a little bit more!
Reiri took out a juice from the cars mini-bar, then she offered it to Kizuna and Sylvia.
The detailed explanation will be after we arrive.
Kizuna felt a little dissatisfied having the explanation delayed, but he obediently consented.
He believed that now Reiri had said that, she would surely give him an explanation later. Reiri had never failed to keep her promise to Kizuna.
Rather than that, Ill introduce Sylvia to you once more. She is a transfer student from Britain, Sylvia Silvercut.
Britain?
Research and development of Heart Hybrid Gear was also conducted outside Japan, but most of them came from the technology gifted by Ataraxia. And so promising human resources from all over the world came to this Ataraxia.
Although, that was the story before the Second Another Universe Conflict occurred.
He guessed that Silvia too arrived in this Ataraxia before that time.
She is a first year of middle school, but she is an extremely excellent personnel. From today on, she will work as your subordinate.
Subordinate!?
Please take care of me, Captain!
Captain!?
Yes! Sylvia is Kizuna-senpais subordinate. I was assigned with formal appointment to this position. Thats why, Kizuna-senpai is Sylvias captain desu.
Ne, Nee-chan, a subordinate for me, what is the meaning of this?
I dont mind whether you make her help you for your daily life or whatever. Its fine for you to order her for any kind of business. She is your first subordinate. Be affectionate to her.
Be affectionate!?
No matter how you look at it, isnt that a crime!?
What are you thinking inside your brain?
Ah, so its not in that kind of meaning shit, its like I got completely brainwashed unwittingly.
Well, this girl is also one of the candidates. If it looks like she has good prospect, I wont stop you from that.
No, stop me! As an elder sister, as a person in position of responsibility!
Also, Ill make Sylvia report whether you make progress in your relation with those lasses or not.
So that was your true objective making Sylvia my subordinate! Isnt that just a nice way of saying that she is my overseer!
Err, are you fine with that? Having me as your captain?
Yes! Sylvia is the number one member of Kizuna squad desu. Its an honor desu!
She was looking up at him with bright eyes.
Kizuna was unable to do anything except powerlessly smile towards that pure eyes.
As poor as I am, Sylvia too will do her best! I will become the strength of Captain, I want to make this strategy a success desu!
At first its only Sylvia, but I expect you to someday become a captain that leads the Heart Hybrid Gear force, Amaterasu.
Thats a really unthinkable long distance for me.
After the car drove for ten minutes, they arrived at the destination.
Eh this place is
When he got off the electric automobile that was automatically driven, he was in front of a building that he recognized.
Sylvia will explain desu! This is the Heart Hybrid Gear laboratory desu. Its called Nayuta Lab. But, why is this place called Nayuta Lab?
Thats
That was because his mothers name was Hida Nayuta.
Sylvia returned back using the car after that and Reiri and Kizuna entered the lab.
They walked a corridor that he was familiar with.
When he was a child, he had come many times to this lab. He felt strange freshness and nostalgia.
But, is this corridor this narrow? The ceiling is also low, even the entrance should be bigger.
Kizuna spoke while observing the pure white corridor.
You are the one that had grown bigger.
Reiri who was walking ahead gave a calm retort.
Theres that.
Before long, they arrived in front of the room that his mother once used as her research room.
Nervousness ran in Kizunas heart.
This is Reiri. Im entering.
It was an excessively spacious and pure white room.
At the center, there was a console that looked like a cockpit. A lot of floating windows were surrounding that console.
In front of that console, a girl in a white research coat was sitting. She was busily operating the keyboard and touch panel.
This girl is the supervisor of this lab, the person working in charge of Ataraxias technology, Shikina Kei.
When she was introduced, she turned to Kizuna with a glance.
She had a petite body so he didnt know but, it seemed that she was the same age as Reiri. Her hair was in a bob cut style and put in place by several pins, perhaps it was so that the hair wouldnt become a hindrance in work.
Her cold eyes behind her glasses were observing Kizuna intently.
She didnt say anything and turned her back to him before running her fingers through the consoles keyboard.
A floating window popped up in front of Kizuna.
{How do you do. I am Shikina Kei. A close friend of your big sister since our time as students. You can call me Kei. Nice to meet you, Hida Kizuna.}
She is a fellow that is poor in communications with other people. Well, dont mind it.
Y, yes. Then why am I here?
Its for adjusting your Heart Hybrid Gear.
Kizunas heart jumped sharply in his chest.
Dont tell me, Kaa-san will?
Ill say this first, but if its mother then she isnt here.
Eh-? Is, is that so
He felt complicated, as if he was relieved and disappointed.
That person right now is missing.
Ha!?
Missing you say how?
She disappeared. A certain day when we noticed, she was already nowhere.
Disappeared? Just where in the world did she go then?
Because we dont know that we say she disappeared.
But, with the world right now, just to where can she go? She cannot move anywhere except to the other floats in this Megafloat Japan, the coming and going of people is also being managed. She should be discovered immediately right?
Kei was typing with a speed that even the eye couldnt follow.
{She couldnt be found. No matter what we did anywhere. Looking just from the investigation result, Professor Nayuta right now is not in Megafloat Japan anymore.}
Thats was she moving when we came into contact with other countrys float?
{Thats one of the possibilities. But, if the professor felt like it, the security of all float will be meaningless. Searching for her is a pointless waste of time.}
Just what in the world happened?
He thought that even a mother like that was advancing her research for the sake of the world and mankind despite that, she vanished in this essential time, there was a degree even for being irresponsible.
Kaa-san just what in the world is she thinking?
Who knows. That persons thinking cannot be understood by us. I dont even want to understand anyway.
Reiri spitted those words out.
{But, last month an unregistered mail was sent to us. The content was the data regarding the ability of Hida Kizuna, about your Eros. Most likely it was something written by Professor Nayuta.}
Eh? Then
{Of course, we tracked the mail but it was pointless. Its just, there is only one person in the whole world that knows of the detailed data of Heart Hybrid Gear. Only Professor Hida Nayuta.}
Kei analyzed that data, it was three days ago when the meaning and conclusion of the data could be derived. And then I called you here.
When Kei operated the console, windows were started up around Kizuna, several formulas and graphs that he couldnt comprehend were displayed.
{This is a ground-breaking discovery. It is explaining about the special ability that is possible only by Hida Kizunas Eros.}
My gear?
Right. And then, there is also the answer about just why the performance of your Heart Hybrid Gear is low there.
Kizunas heart felt a sharp pain.
Without a single change in expression, Kei continued to type in the keyboard.
{The performance of Hida Kizunas Heart Hybrid Gear is low because he has no aptitude, that explanation is not accurate. The correct answer is, because you are a male that the trait is different.}
Because he was a male?
{Only after Heart Hybrid Gear was installed into a female that it would display its original performance. The reason was unknown, but from the experiment result, it had to be recognized as fact.}
Reiri nodded in affirmation.
In reality, we are sorting out the candidates who have high aptitude for Heart Hybrid Gear and also excellent skill, but the chosen personnel are all female students.
So that was it. Because of that, the ones who possessed Heart Hybrid Gear, Chidorigafuchi, Himekawa, and Yurisia, all of them were girls.
{However, we understand that this is the difference of trait between male and female. In exchange for males low battle ability, their consumption rate of Hybrid Count is little.}
Eh! Isnt that really advantageous
Their Life Saver is long lasting I guess. However, only having high stamina wont defeat the enemy.
Kizuna was jumping in joy, but his shoulders immediately dropped in dejection.
{But, your Heart Hybrid Gear [Eros] has a special ability that is only available when it is installed in a male.}
Thats, the special ability, that was written in Kaa-sans mail?
{Correct. That is the Heart Hybrid phenomenon. We called it [Union Remodelling].}
Kizuna recalled yesterdays occurrence.
Thats the thing that I did with Chidorigafuchi yesterday right?
Right. I also explained it in the general meeting yesterday.
If he remembered right, with two people, man and female possessing Heart Hybrid Gear, their body and heart into one, sharing their affection and pleasure something like that.
{With the proffesors data as the basis, we tried various simulations. The result, we obtained the conclusion that this was something that only Hida Kizunas Eros could do. For that reason, we called Hida Kizuna from Tokyo float until Ataraxia in a great rush.}
So thats it he finally felt like he could comprehend the situation.
{There is an unlimited possibility in this technology. Its not limited to simply replenishing energy, it also included the possibility of realizing power up of the Heart Hybrid Gear. An addition of new weapon that is not there until now. We are also having expectations for that.}
Now that she mentioned that before this, Chidorigafuchi was also talking about something strange.
Is there any relation about that with this thing called Corruption Armament?
Keis hands stopped. She was staring intently at Kizuna.
However, he couldnt read Keis thinking at all from her face. He felt like she was not looking at him, but perhaps to something that was behind him.
Keis fingers moved while she was still facing him.
{Where did you hear that story from?}
Err, just now from Chidorigafuchi
{I see, I understand. Exactly, they are connected. Until the end, Heart Hybrid is nothing more than energy replenishment for Heart Hybrid Gear. However, when the heart and body become one even far deeper than that, the twos energy resonance will reach the limit and one can obtain a new weapon, the [Corruption Armament].}
What kind of weapon is that?
{Unknown. But from the research result, we can only confirm that such a weapon exists. But no one has seen it before, so it cannot be verified.}
And Aine wanted that?
Yeah. At that time, I didnt get it all just what she was talking about though. In short, she wanted to do erotic things and obtain a new weapon something like that.
Reiri crossed her hands and smiled.
Isnt that fine? Give her that present.
Kizunas face scowled.
But, I said this yesterday at the auditorium too, I think that its important to consider each others feeling in this. Even if Nee-chan suddenly told me to do that kind of things with a girl that I just met for the first time, thats obviously impossible isnt it?
Is that so? I think that this is a happy situation for a man.
We, well, perhaps thats so but.. thats not it! Even though I look like this, I have reasoning and common sense! Hearing an absurd story like that, you think I can just suddenly say Oh, okay! Just what kind of harem manga this is!
Its fine like this. Ive made all kinds of preparations.
{Not touching the feast before ones eyes is a mans shame.}
Even Kei was backing up Reiri.
Bu, but even so, the feeling of the other party cannot be ignored I told you!
Then, everything will be fine if you just make those lasses to like you.
No thats impossible. If you use your common sense.
But, if you dont do it then Heart Hybrid cannot be realized.
Just why on earth were they this persistent?
Whatever the circumstances may be, their methods and ways were irrational, they were too forceful.
About that, I have a stupid question here.
What?
When I was doing experiment as a child it was the same but, this energy of Heart Hybrid Gear will naturally recover to normal if you just leave it alone? Just why do I have to go that far to recover this energy?
Thats
Reiri was unusually hesitating to talk. Keis fingers were also tapping on the keyboard, but they were hovering in the air without going anywhere as if lost.
It takes too much time, waiting for the energy to recover naturally.
{Just as we explained previously, the energy consumption rate of males are low. Furthermore, the experiment result of Hida Kizuna in the end is just from the initial stage experiment content. It cannot compare with the amount consumed in real battle. Also, the greater the obtained combat ability is, the compensation for that is also great. In this half year since the Second Another Universe Conflict, all of this has been proven.}
I see similar with a car, if they travel a lot then it will take a lot of fuel to consume, if the performance is high then the fuel consumption is also bad, so its something like that.
Rather than that, lets accomplish our objective today. The adjustment of Eros. If it goes well, it might be able to power up you know?
Eh!? Power up?
Kizuna became excited.
Right. Its great that you saved Aine in the battle yesterday, but its a problem that you already fell from just that much mass. According to the data sent by mother last month, it seems that adjustment matching the wearers age is necessary. Though its different from Heart Hybrid, in the end this is just on the level of adjustment.
Even so at least the performance will go up a little!
Thats right.
Reiri smiled gently.
Kei stood up from the console and moved close to Reiri. She pointed at a door and whispered something to Reiri in a small voice.
Kizuna, if you go through that door, at the end of the path is the adjustment room. There is also a change of clothes there, so go ahead first and finish your change.
Roger!
Kizuna got out of the room with joy welling up within him.
Silence visited the room where Reiri and Kei were left behind.
Worry was carved at Reiris forehead.
Kei faced Reiri and whispered in a voice that could be barely heard.
Re-ri. Is it fine to not tell him the truth?
Yeah, this is something that someday I have to tell him I know that.
Kei closed her eyes and nodded.
I think its fine for Re-ri to follow your determination.
Sorry, Kei.
Keis lips smiled a little.
And then, the next day.
Kizuna was flying on top of the blue sea in excellent condition. The weather was also good, and he felt really good.
{How is it, your condition?}
Communication from Kei was displayed in a floating window as text.
Im in a really good condition here. Somehow, its like Im reborn.
The sea under his eyes was flowing behind very quickly. He was at a speed that he would absolutely be unable to display if it was before.
He purposefully flew until he barely touched the sea surface, it was also fun dodging the waves. He got carried away and took a steep ascent and descent, he even tried somersaulting.
Today, Kizuna was given a mission to survey for resources. This mission was unrelated with other students of second year first group, this was a mission assigned by Ataraxia, for Kizuna this became his first mission.
The content of the mission itself was simple.
Currently Ataraxia was sailing through the open sea of Indonesia.
Nearby there was an unpopulated island that was rich with resources, so he was told to go survey the island.
He thought that if it was not the specialist then such investigation couldnt be performed, but it seemed that everything would be fine if he just operated the investigation device following the manual. The collected data would be transmitted to Ataraxia in intervals, and then combined with the sample they would bring back, the specialists would take time to investigate that.
A lot of the parts of Megafloat Japan was made up from ocean resources and recycled resources. This was a simple mission, but it was important.
Haai, Kizuna. You are in a good mood arent you.
Yurisia took Kizunas side.
Ah, Yurisia. Yesterday my gear got powered up a little. So Im checking the movement a little.
Fufufu. You look like a kid that received a new toy, how cute
U, certainly, I might have gotten too hyper here its a little embarrassing.
At that time, Yurisia received a private communication from Reiri.
My, commander. Is there something wrong, for you to call me directly like this?
{There is one thing you should be careful about. Yurisia, your remaining Hybrid Count is few. Right now you only have 20% left. Avoid combat at all costs.}
Yurisia looked over the blue sea.
Aa, it will be fine. After all this is really a safe place
Yurisia turned aside Reiris worry with a smile.
Rather than for me, isnt it better to worry more about the little brother I wonder? He is really in high spirits you know.
Yurisia smiled amusedly.
Really, its fine as long as he doesnt get carried away and holds us back though.
{Indeed, that guy getting merry like that is also one of my worries. In any case, I dont think that this mission is dangerous, but there is nothing better than being careful. Dont you dare let your guard down, okay?}
The communication from Reiri was cut off.
Yurisia, who was that from?
No, its nothing. Well then, Ill be going ahead.
Leaving those words behind, Yurisia accelerated. Just in an instant she reached a tremendous speed.
As expected from the ace of Americas army. No way I can catch up with that
What are you saying? Something like someone you can catch up with, doesnt exist anywhere here.
Himekawa was coming closer to him while saying such harsh thing without hesitation.
Ahahaha, well, now that you said that, thats exactly right.
Himekawa heaved a deep sigh and glared at Kizuna.
Anyway, although this is a safe mission, carelessness is prohibited. Listen sincerely to what I say and refrain from arbitrary action. Especially, Aine-san!
Looking at his other side, before he realized, Aine was also flying along his side.
Right. Im listening properly. Your question is what should be done so the breasts can become bigger, right?
No one is asking that kind of question!
After shouting that with a red face, Himekawa flew away with amazing acceleration as if kicking away at the air.
Uwa, incredible. So the one with fast speed is not just Yurisia huh
I guess so. Her breasts are small, but Hayuru is Japans ace you know? Even though her breasts are that small.
No thats not related to breast size at all.
He couldnt feel anything but ill will from that already.
{I heard that! Please stop playing around-!}
Himekawas angry transmission shook his eardrums.
Himekawa too was pitiful.
Kizuna sympathized with Himekawa from the bottom of his heart.
Honestly, her breasts were not that small but, well if the comparison was with those two then it might really look small.
Kizuna took a look at the owner of the smaller one between those two.
The large breasts were shaking without pause from the vibration and wind pressure. It possessed an overwhelming presence.
Ah, err, you saying that means Chidorigafuchi, you are Japans number two then? Or else are you from another country?
Her appearance was like a foreigner, but her name was in Japanese style. By any chance, perhaps she was an ace from somewhere in Europe.
Dont look down on me. Im not such a small human that can be rated on that scale.
Eh? You mean
Im the earths ace.
E, earth!?
Oi oi! Thats just too big!
Thats wrong, Im mistaken just now. Yes, Im the universes ace.
I got the feeling that I have seen something like that on the internet a long time ago!
{You guys, leave the joking around behind.}
He could hear Reiris voice that was mixed with anger.
Dangerous, scaryyy.
{The destination island will enter into view soon. When you arrived, begin investigation as planned.}
Ro, roger!
The unpopulated island that was their destination was actually a small island. Shallow shoals were extending wide, in the center there was a land with a radius of less than one kilometer.
Even so, there were trees and greenery typical of a southern country, it had the appearance a little like a private resort.
So that was how it was. If it was an island this small, then even an Entrance of another universe shouldnt manifest here.
The Entrance that sprang forth from the collision with another universe existed everywhere all over the world, but there was a fixed rule about their appearing spot.
That rule was they could only appear limited in a land with certain surface size.
The reason wasnt understood, but until now there had never been an Entrance discovered above the sea, there was also no confirmation of an Entrance on an island with a size below a certain limit.
For that reason, a Megafloat was a safe area.
At the event where they got near large land, meticulous vigilance was necessary, but an island this small was safe.
Kizuna was relieved and assembled the investigation device he brought.
Err, I wonder if its fine like this?
Because it would be a hindrance for the work, he called off his Heart Hybrid Gear.
{Yes. Whats left is just to push the switch, then its finished.}
The manual Kei created was extremely easy to understand, so the setting was finished without any trouble.
Then, switch on.
The investigation device was started up.
{Data transmission is confirmed. It will take around two hours for the data gathering, so during that time carry out the sample collection of the plants and minerals of the island. After completion, recover the device and go home.}
Roger.
Kizuna heaved a single sigh and dropped his shoulder.
Ah, the setting is over already?
Himekawa who was a little far away noticed him and called out.
Yeah, its finished. Im told that the data collection will take two hours as expected.
Then we will collect the sample just as planned. How about we divide into two groups?
Thats right. Although this is a small island, it will take more than two hours if all of us are together.
They separated into two groups just as Yurisia proposed.
Well then, Cross off.
Yurisia removed her Heart Hybrid Gear.
Eh, Yurisia-san. You took off Cross?
Yes. There is no enemy here. This is a southern island that we rarely visited. At the very least we have to let our hair down
Himekawa and Aine looked at each other and followed along by removing their gear.
After that, with a reason to balance their combat strength, they were divided into groups of Yurisia-Kizuna and Aine-Himekawa.
Yurisia-Kizuna group would be in the south side while Aine-Himekawa group would investigate the opposite side.
The island was surrounded by white sandy beach, coconut trees were lining up along the beach.
Yurisia went ahead for just in case, so Kizuna was instructed to follow along from behind.
Kizuna followed that instruction and he was walking behind but
The scenery is really beautiful isnt it
Tha, thats right
The scenery was beautiful, but the back figure of Yurisa walking was also beautiful.
Swaying golden hair. Under it was the large ass wrapped in the pilot suit.
Voluptuous thighs stretched out from the ass that looked voluminous, in accordance with those legs alternately moving forward, the ass changed its orientation to the left and right.
Saying it frankly, his eyes were troubled where to look!
Hey, Kizuna. That tree
Yurisia suddenly turned back. Kizuna was greatly shocked and averted his face.
His eyes swam around, he scratched his head, he had no composure at all.
Yurisia who saw his state made a really wide mean smile.
Its no good unless you properly listen to what Im saying you know
Yurisia twirled and faced Kizuna. Matching that movement, her large breasts shook.
Kizunas eyes became nailed to that place.
Yurisias breast jolted to the opposite side as if hopping back, and then it returned back again to the original side. While that movement was repeated, its shaking was gradually settled down. His eyes were naturally chasing that shaking.
Heyy, Kizuna-kuun?
Hah, yess-
Its no good if you are staring that much
She raised her index finger and closed one of her eyes.
Uu ye, yes.
After that, even when Yurisia was occasionally turning back, Kizuna was facing at the seas direction all the time.
Looking at Kizuna who was like that, Yurisia smiled thinly.
He utterly has no resistance to girls doesnt he? Like this then, something like Heart Hybrid will be impossible.
Well though, as long as he is not becoming a burden, then it doesnt matter.
Yurisia leaked out a small murmur.
Hm? Did you say something?
Kizuna called her.
Yurisia smiled cheerfully and turned back.
No, nothing. This is a rare chance, so lets collect the samples around this area.
Aah, ri, right.
Even after that, Kizuna kept getting flustered towards Yurisias figure in her pilot suit.
And then, the collection ended, and by the time they returned to the previous sandy beach, two hours had just passed.
Joining Aine and Himekawa that had returned, they began the preparation for returning home.
Then, we are returning ahead.
Leaving behind Kizuna who needed more time to retrieve the investigation device, Aine and Himekawa would carry home the collected samples ahead of him.
Okay. But, I might catch up with you two immediately later.
A race? Certainly Yurisia-sans top speed is amazing, but if there is a handicap then I wont lose.
Himekawa was completely eager to race.
Then, Aine-san. We too are going to race. The one who can return first to Ataraxia will be the winner.
Hayuru will be overwhelmingly advantaged in something like that. It wont even be a match.
Himekawas cheeks reddened and her body fidgeted around because she was happy from being praised.
Tha, thats not true at all. Aine-san yourself also has wonderful mobility dont you?
I mean, the air resistance of our chest is just too different.
Here I go-!!
Himekawa flew away with a demonic look.
After that Aine chased behind her.
Now, we too should tidy up and return back immediately.
Yeah, guess so.
Kizuna answered while moving his hand.
By the way, Kizunas Heart Hybrid Gear, how much spec it has?
Yurisia gave him an unexpected question.
Eh? How much even if you ask me that
Weak, he could only answer with that.
Hmmm, I see then, until now how many enemies have you defeated?
Eh thats, zero.
Yurisia raised a surprised voice.
Then, you are really a brand new rookie? Your combat experience?
When Ataraxia was attacked before this was my first even if I say that, I was just catching the falling Chidorigafuchi, after that I didnt do anything. Hahaha.
Nn but, you saved Aine, so I think its fine even if you feel proud of yourself isnt it?
Whaat? So he really is an amateur. I wonder if it will really be okay like this?
Until now, how many enemies have Yurisia defeated?
Me? Approximately, about three hundred.
Three-!?
Kizuna lost his words.
I thought you were amazing but as expected, Americas ace is just incredible
Im not incredible or anything.
Yurisia had a distant look. As if she was looking at something at the other side of the sea.
Is something wrong? Yurisia?
With a hah Yurisia returned to her senses.
Thats only natural. After all being called Americas ace, that means being the worlds strongest
She winked energetically at him.
Kizuna felt like his blood was rushing to his head.
I, I got it. At the very least, Ill take care of this tidying up.
Putting aside Yurisia who was leisurely sitting on the sandy beach, Kizuna progressed the tidying up of the investigation device.
Five minutes later he finished his work and turned back to Yurisias direction.
OI, Im finished. Yurisi
Kizuna doubted his eyes.
Behind Yurisia, a magic weapon Blue Head was standing.
Such thing.
Impossible.
White sandy beach and southern countrys tree. Blue sky and white cloud.
All of those were looking cheerful no matter where one looked.
The magic weapon struck by sunlight like a demon was standing toweringly.
E, ENEMYYY! YURISIAAA!
Yurisia reflexively turned around from Kizunas shout.
Cross!
Yurisia wasted no time to put on her Heart Hybrid Gear and deployed her weapon.
Fire-!
Yurisias main cannon, the Differential Frame spouted out fire.
The head of the Blue Head was hit directly. In addition, its body was filled with wind holes from the cannons rapid fire.
Blue Heads large body was collapsing behind slowly.
Wha
The scenery behind it was flickering gently. The blue sea and white clouds wavered. It was just like seeing scenery through a warped glass.
Looking up at that, Yurisia shouted in disbelief.
This is another universes Entrance!?
From that wavering scenery, a gigantic armored leg appeared. That leg blew up the white sand and stepped out on the beach. And then from ten meters above the ground, armored head, and then next the upper body, that appearance revealed itself as if breaking through an unseen wall.
A second Blue Head stepped forward.
God dammit, why did it turn out like this!
Eros!
Kizuna emitted pink light then his body was wrapped in a black gear.
This is Kizuna, Ataraxia, respond! Shikina-san, Nee-chan!
However, nothing came out from the window except noise.
What happened, Kizuna?
I cannot make communication! Ataraxia, also Himekawa and Aine, all of them cannot be called!
What did you say!?
Yurisia glared at the another universes Entrance.
Right, so thats the cause
For some reason communication malfunction occurred at the vicinity of another universes Entrance. The reason why they couldnt communicate with their homelands that were Japan and America was also thought to be caused by this.
But, if its just Blue Head, then its not a big proble
The Entrance that was connected straight to the another universe, its space was slowly wavering.
Dont tell me,
Similar with the Blue Head, from the air where there was nothing, an Albatross made its appearance.
By no means that there was nothing. When he looked carefully, he could see that the space was distorted in a rectangle shape.
That was the proof that an Entrance to another universe was right there.
They were quickly surrounded by ten Albatross. With a sidelong glance, Yurisia took a look at Kizuna.
This is why a burden is just troublesome.
Kizuna, I will hold them back here. Thats why, you hurry and return back to Ataraxia.
Eh!? But, Yurisia, what about you?
I alone am enough against the likes of Blue Heads and Albatrosses.
But! Leaving Yurisia behind, theres no way I can do that!
Yurisia glared sternly at Kizuna.
Even with Kizuna here, you will be just a burden!
Kuh.
Kizuna dropped his gaze with a bitter expression.
Yurisia immediately displayed a smile looking at Kizuna who was like that.
There will be no problem against enemies of this level. Rather than that, you need to report this quickly!
Certainly, Yurisia was a super ace that had shot down three hundred enemies. In contrast with that, he didnt even have proper experience of real battle. Even for someone like him, what he could do to be useful was
Go, got it! Ill call for help immediately!
Now, here we go!
Yurisia drew out particle rifles from her waist. She took a stance with both her hands holding the particle rifles like handguns, she directed it at the Albatrosses in the air and began shooting.
Kizuna-!
Ou-!
Kizuna flew out skimming the sea surface, like that he dashed away with all his power.
An Albatross was trying to aim at his back.
I wont let you do that!
The Differential Frame faced the back and fired the particle cannon. Without a moments delay she directed both her hands to the front and the rifles shot through the Blue Head. The Albatross that was trying to pursue Kizuna was shot down by the particle cannon.
Confirming that Kizuna had distanced himself away, Yurisia used her sensor to confirm the number and position of the surrounding magic weapons.
Five Blue Heads, and eight Albatross is it?
She made a plan to clear them all with an all out bombardment and use that opening to retreat.
Then, I wonder if you all have resolved yourself? Ill shoot down everyone now.
Light began to fill the nozzle of the particle cannon.
Fire(All cannon shoot)!
Yurisias weapons spouted out fire.
In addition to the particle rifles in both her hands, bullets of light were fired from her back and waist.
Those light bullets pierced the Albatrosses bodies and pulverized them with one attack.
Yurisias weapon moved and changed their deployment pattern. It was as if each cannon muzzle was possessing their own will, they pursued after the enemies movement.
The conclusion was reached in about five seconds.
A sudden silence visited the battlefield.
Yurisia haa breathed out a large deep breath.
Those many figures of magic weapons couldnt be found anywhere. What could be seen were only fragments of light, raining down on the sea.
Somehow it looks like I barely made it.
She only had little Hybrid Count left. She had already entered the red zone right now. Just a little more and her Heart Hybrid Gear would be forcefully called off.
The commander she surely will tell me I told you so with this.
She became a little depressed, but Yurisia played with her hair and renewed her mood.
But well, I made it somehow anyway Now, when I get home a bath with aroma oil entered will be
Yurisia lost her words.
From the Entrance, a figure of an object she had never seen before was going to appear.
A mechanized lizard.
At first that was what she thought. A long neck appeared, before long a body with wings growing out made its appearance. And then on its back, there was an upper body of an armored knight that looked similar with Blue Head and Albatross.
Dragre(Dragon Cavalry)
It was considerably rare to encounter, a magic weapon in category-A.
The upper body of the armored knight didnt have any great difference compared to other magic weapons, but it had a long neck and tail. And then when it spread out its wings, that pressuring appearance was overwhelming.
A sweat flowed down Yurisias cheek.
If she was in a perfect condition, it was not an enemy that she couldnt defeat.
But
Her body was heavy, she couldnt enter any strength.
It appeared that the energy of Heart Hybrid Gear was almost used up.
The dragon neck was slowly turning as if it was searching for prey.
Inside the caving in eyes, red light was eerily shining. Its mouth opened. There was no tongue inside it for sure, but a tube like a firing nozzle for something was visible.
In the next moment, the sight before her eyes turned pure white.
Kyaaaaaaaa!
Her body flew in the air. The sky and the sea were rotating.
I was blown away?
Inside the rotating circle and circle scenery, she could see a straight line of flame being drawn at the sky.
Unable to control her movement, she crashed into the sea.
Hm-!?
Kizuna was surprised from the sudden restoration of the floating window that he kept connected the whole time. By opening distance from the Entrance, it seemed that he had escaped from the range of the communication obstruction. The half transparent window displayed the figure of Reiri.
{Did something happen, Kizuna?}
(Ne-, Nee-chan!?
With a chaotic face, Kizuna desperately tried to explain the situation.
A, an Entrance appeared in the island! Right now Yurisia is in the middle of battle. I request instruction!
{What do you say!? What does this mean, Kei.}
{Such thing shouldnt happen. If the data until now is correct.}
Kizuna sent the image of what he saw to Ataraxia. With the function of Heart Hybrid Gear, everything that he saw was automatically recorded. It was something like a drive recorder.
The data was sent to Ataraxia and replayed inside the command room.
Magic weapons were appearing one after another from the Entrance that appeared above the sea.
{This is}
{The shoals.}
What?
{The ground for it to appear is small. But, this island has shallows with depth less than a meter that continued for several hundred meter. If those areas are totaled, then there will be enough space for an Entrance to be formed.}
Shit-! So thats how it is.
{Kizuna, you said that Yurisia is in battle situation? What about Aine and Himekawa?}
They returned back ahead. Also Yurisia said that she alone will be enough, so
{Got it. Kei, call Aine and Himekawa. Tell them to immediately turn back.}
Whats wrong, Nee-chan? Why are you that rushed?
Reiri spoke worriedly.
{Yurisias remaining Hybrid Count is only a little. We thought that there will be no battle occurring in the mission this time and let our guard downshit-!}
Taken aback, Kizuna opened the floating window of Eros.
He confirmed the vital sign of Yurisia displayed there and lost his voice.
Her remaining Hybrid Count had passed below 10%, further even now it was continuing to decrease.
Nee-chan!?
{Dont worry, right now Aine and Himekawa are heading there. You just go back here!}
Kizuna glared at the meter gauge that was continuing to decrease.
In Kizunas mind, the figure of Aine crashing down when her Hybrid Count became zero was resurrected.
Dont joke around! If she is shot down in a situation of being surrounded by enemy
{Oi! Kizuna}
Kizuna cut off the communication and made a rapid turn toward the island.
Shit-, am I going to make it!?
Hurry!
The fastest you can until now!
The surrounding scenery was streaming behind and vanished.
He raised his gears output until the maximum.
I can see it!
Yurisia was crouching on her knees at the shoal.
A hundred meter in front of her, at the white sandy beach, a magic weapon he had never even seen before was standing in her way.
Yurisia was breathing with her shoulders heaving up and down, she didnt even have strength to stand up anymore.
But, she was still alive.
Her Life Saver was also still functioning.
He made i-,
At that time, Yurisias Heart Hybrid Gear, Cross became beads of light and vanished.
!!
The Hybrid Count had already went down passed the limit.
Yurisia-!
She turned around with a jerk at Kizunas voice.
Ki, Kizuna!?
He caused the water to splash and slid at Yurisias position. He deployed Life Saver just before stopping.
Dragres flame clashed with the Life Saver.
The flame that was bounced back by the Life Saver impacted at the sea far ahead.
At that instant, the sea water evaporated.
UWAAAA!
The water caused large explosion and a water pillar higher than a hundred meter was rising up.
Kizuna embraced Yurisia in her pilot suit into his arms.
Wall of water collapsed on him and a severe impact ran through his whole body.
You, you okay Yurisia?
Im, Im finewait, Kizuna you
The armored knight growing on Dragres back was moving. The weapon with the shape of lance in its hand was directed to the two of them.
Dazzling light burst out and beam of light was fired from its tip.
That light hit directly at Kizunas Life Saver.
UOWAAA!
The shield of Life Saver was wavering from the tremendous bombardment.
That beam was not stopping and continued to attack the Life Saver.
Intense high temperature attacked the two. The sea water in the surrounding evaporated, producing steam like smoke screen.
Even now Eross Life Saver looked as if it was going to break.
Kizuna held out his right hand to the front and desperately supported the Life Saver.
Why, did you come back!? Just run away quickly!
ShiSHITTT!
His right arm felt burning, his body felt like it was going to come apart from the impact.
Do you hear me!? Run away quickly!
I dont wanna!
Yurisias word was involuntarily jammed in her throat.
Do, dont say something childish! That thing is a category-A magic weapon dont you know! With something like your Life Saver it will shave off all your Hybrid Count in a flash and thats the end you know!?
Kizuna directed a frantic gaze at Yurisia.
Dont worry! A males consumption of Hybrid Count is lower compared to girl! Haha-, what the hell Nee-chan. Im seriously usefularent I!
Yurisia looked at Kizuna with a shocked face.
The dragon head opened its mouth. It was as if the kettle of hell was opened, flame surged out from it.
A shockwave even greater assaulted the two.
The Life Saver of Eros screamed from the simultaneous attack of the armored knight and the dragon.
The Life Saver that passed the limit was smashed apart.
UWAAAAAAAAAA!
KYAAAAAAAAAA!
Both of them were blown away from the intense attack of the magic weapon.
The body of the two flew in the sky.
After flying through long distance, they fell into the sea.
Kizunas face landed on Yurisias big breast.
Kizuna-!?
Kizunas limp body still covered over Yurisia unmovingly.
Yurisiayouokay?
Kizuna leaked out a painful voice.
Why are you doing this?
With a shaking hand, Yurisia stroked Kizunas head.
Why are you going this far for the sake of me who you havent met for long?
What, are you sayinga girl, meet this kind of dangerits obvious, just what to do.
Kizuna raised his face and looked for the Dragre with a painful face.
Just for that kind of reason?
Yurisia hugged Kizuna to her bosom as if to console him.
Even though you cannot even fight magic weapon wellyou are going to protect me with your body, until you become like this?
Risking your life.
There was no focus in Kizunas eye, as if his consciousness was blurry.
Perhaps he was desperately looking for something to support his body, his hand was wavering on air.
And then, that hand grasped at Yurisias large breast.
Ah! -
Yurisias chest jumped greatly.
Even though her breast was touched, but she didnt feel any unpleasantness at all.
In its place, deep inside her chest, she felt as if her heart was strongly squeezed, painfully and heartrendingly.
Wh, what, is this?
The throbbing of her heart was unstoppable.
As if her heart was going to break.
Golden radiance was born inside Yurisias eyes.
When she peered into Kizunas face with those eyes, the gazes of the two met.
Within Kizunas eyes too, a beautiful pink radiance was dancing.
Yurisia felt that radiance was really beautiful.
The next instant, their bodies were enveloped in golden and pink radiance.
Eh! Thi, this iswhat in the world?
Yurisia was staring wonderingly at the radiance coiling around her body.
Heart, Hybrid?
Together with the radiance covering his body, Kizunas consciousness was becoming clearer.
This was.
It was similar, with that time before when he met Chidorigafuchi.
This is, Heart Hybridamazing. Strength is welling up inside my body.
In a complete change from before, vitality was overflowing through her whole body.
Yurisias golden hair looked sparkling, her skin was also so glossy with bright luster.
Kizuna too unintentionally became completely fascinated.
Thank you, Kizunafor coming to save me.
Yurisia smiled sweetly.
Eh! No, thats
When she saw Kizuna being shy, Yurisias heart mysteriously turned warm.
Then, right now I need to pay back that magic weapon
Yurisia directed a smile to the Dragre. However a killing intent was dwelling in her eyes.
Yeah! Blow it away!
Crosss weapon began its bombardment preparation.
Dragres mouth opened. Inside that mouth, beads of light were dancing.
Watch me Kizuna. This is, my showtime!
Flame was gathering inside the dragons mouth, at that instant,
Hell Fire(Fall to Hell)!
Crosss full bombardment was opened and an all-out fire was carried out focusing in one point.
It was an intenseness that couldnt be compared with Yurisias full power shooting until now.
The main cannon pulveriszed the dragons head.
The armored knight was blown away altogether with its hand that was holding the spear.
Unable to endure, the Dragre spread a shield with its remaining arm.
However Yurisias full power shooting ignored the shield as if it was nothing.
The dragons wings became full of holes and completely lost its control.
The bombardment that gave the impression as if it would continue forever pushed back the Dragre like that until the Entrance to the another universe.
Yurisias bombardment demolished the shoal of the unpopulated island into pieces as it was.
The body of Dragre already lost its shape and not even its shadow was left behind, it was smashed up into fragments of light.
At the same time with that, the Entrance to the another universe was terminated.
