Soldier Boy and Angel Girls

Kirino P.O.V

We watched in awe as the two adults, the winged woman and the cat eared man, fought off an entire line of those evil automatons.

The cat eared man with an eyepatch on his left eye, even missing his left arm, easily tore entire arms or two off of the bad automatons with each swipe of his right and only arm. His purple coat seemingly absorbing any and all bullets that would no doubt be fatal to a non haloed person.

While the winged woman with her spear attacked from the sky, diving down into hordes of enemy automatons as she spreads her wings at the very last moment skewering many at once while occasionally swinging and kicking with her talon feets and either cutting off limbs or entire automatons in half. She weaves left and right in the air dodging the enemy fire.

Ah, the cat eared man is impressive in combat... good looking even with how gloomy he is. But the woman, the Valkyrie... she's so pretty and strong and... wait...

I was so in shock at their appearance that I didn't even notice... the Valkyrie, Miss Karin Sauer, is... is completely nude!

"Kirino-san, what do we do?" I hear one of my comrades ask.

"We... we can't just let them visitors do our job!" Another one said. Well, yeah. They don't have haloes.

Hmm. Looking back at the innocent civilians behind us, they're... completely healed thanks to that cat mans healing magic. They're looking at me in worry and fright, there's even a sukeben who's just about ready to cry her eyes out.

Levi-Sensei would've known what to do, Chief Kanna would've known what to do...

No, I can't be relying on them all the time! I need to take initiative, I'm supposed to... I just need to... what can I do?

Two of my fellow officers stood up from cover to fire back with their tiny revolvers, to which they ducked back down as the automatons fired back. The civilians we're protecting screaming out in terror, lowering their heads as they covered it with their hands.

That's right, we need to evacuate!

"We need to get out of here, regroup with Chief Kanna or... or whichever group we come across!" That's the only thing we can do.

"But... the automatons!"

"Our duty is to protect citizens, that's what we have to focus on!"

"... Fine."

"Karin-san! Please, I need your help!" I screamed out to the woman who flew down from the skies to save us. She probably wouldn't hear it, but-

"Yeah, what is it?" Huh? She's fast! She's immediately by my side looking at me in worry, her... nipples just inches away from my face.

"We... we need to evacuate these civilians! Please, help us clear a path!" I asked out from her, bowing my head.

"Kid, what's your name?" She already introduced herself, so it's only natural.

"Ma'am! I am Officer Nakatsukasa Kirino, it's a pleasure to meet you!" I introduced myself with a snappy salute out of reflex. This... is not the time nor the place!

"Officer?!" Karin-san gasped out in shock for whatever reason, covering her mouth as her eyes hardened. "Not just you... kids, you shouldn't be... playing with guns. Where are the adults?!" Huh? Oh, she's not from here.

"Ma'am! First and foremost, welcome to the Academy City Kivotos!"

"Academy City... you mean this entire city is run by kids?!"

"Affirmative! You need not worry Ma'am, our haloes protect us from bullets!" Oh right, I need to reload now that I'm on the clear.

"Seriously, what's with this place? Nevermind that. On the north, I saw a group in black uniforms." North? Black uniform?

"Ah, those are the Trinity Justice Task Force!" It's not Chief Kanna or Fubuki, but... the entire attack is seemingly on the whole of Kivotos so they would also be responding. "Thank you, Ma'am!" I graciously said to her.

"Folks, it may seem scary but... we can't stay here! We need to evacuate now!" I said to the civilians behind me. A quarter of the civilians are automaton citizens, half are armed haloed students, the rest are dog and cat people. "Armed student citizens, I hate to admit it but... we need your help!" How shameful, begging the very people we're supposed to help to endanger themselves.

"A-alright!" They're naturally scared, even the adults like the automaton citizens and dog and cat people.

"Y-yeah! What use are our guns if we're just gonna h-hide!" One said, cocking her bullpup gun and turning the safety off. Followed by the rest nervously doing so with their own firearms.

"We're going to Hasumi-san, right?" One asked nervously but hopefully. Ah, these are mostly Trinity students. "T-then we'll be s-safe once we reach the JTF." I hope so.

"I- no, Daan and I will cover your evacuation." Karin-san said with determination in her eyes as she looked back at her comrade, the cat eared man in purple swiftly moving left and right dodging gunfire from the white and orange automatons.

"No!"

"Huh? What do you mean no?!"

"Miss Karin, please follow us to Trinity. They... they have clothes for winged people like you!" Kivotos might be in a state of crisis, but it's still part of my duty to ensure public decency!

"Huh?" Huh? Why does she seem concerned herself? Her expression one of confusion as she looks at me weirdly, then... she tilts her head down as her eyes followed. "Eh?! Huh?! What the hell?!" She screams in shock as her eyes widened, arms moving to cover her breasts and crotch along with her legs.

"Did I... fly through this entire city completely nude?" Karin-san muttered to herself with a thousand yard stare, her cheeks turning slightly red. "N-no, nevermind that. So we're going north, yes?"

"Yes, Karin-san. We were completely pinned down earlier, but we should be able to make a run for it now." Looking back at my comrades and the civilians, some of the Trinity students and even the one lone sukeben seems ready to fight their way out. Still scared, but... what other choice do we have?

"I see. I'll do another dive attack, and-" Midway through Karin-san's words, we hear the man screaming out.

"Get your ass over here! I can't fight them off alone!" The cat eared man, I believe Karin-san called him Daan, screamed out as he took cover behind a building as his healing magics aura covered him.

And without a word, the beautiful Valkyrie flapped her wings and shot up the sky. A second later, her blurry figure crashes through the line of evil automatons as both her spear and talons sliced and diced them to pieces.

Ah, this is our chance!

"Move! Move! Move!" I shouted behind me as I ran, followed by the many footsteps of the civilians and my comrades behind me.

The evil robots... looks like they're coming from just that direction, where we're currently running away from. It's obvious enough even for a dunce like me, when Karin-san and Mister Daan came and unpinned us the automatons no longer could attack from the sides.

"Seriously, what the fuck am I looking at? Were my cigs made with weed? Damn it, I thought the manufacturers at least had integrity." Huh? That's... the cat eared man speaking, eyes- no, eye hardened in irritation with gritted teeth as he ran alongside us. This man... is so vulgar! He's supposed to be an adult! "I am an adult, girl. Just that... I'm not really well at the moment." Did you... just read my mind?

"Yeah. Don't slow down now, keep running or those... machine things will catch up." The cat eared man said dismissively, pausing in his speech until he found his words to describe automatons. "I'm Daan... or Daniel by the way. I'm not actually sure which is my actual name." No family name... just like Levi-Sensei.

Hmm, this place. Turning a right as I look at the main city highway, cars abandoned all around as many are running away to where they think it would be safe.

"It's nice to meet you then, Mister Daan. I am Nakatsukasa Kirino of the Valkyrie Police Academy." I introduced myself as we kept on running towards Trinity. This place... looks mostly safe. Perhaps once the civilians are in safety, we could regroup with Chief Kanna. "You know Levi-Sensei, Daan-san?"

"There's that title again, Sensei. What does it mean?"

"It refers to a teacher or an educator."

"Seriously?! I'm happy that the kid got a job, but why a teacher?!" Daan-san said in an exasperated tone, looking at me like I'm saying something crazy. "He's... he's got a lot of shellshock from the war, he could barely say anything back in Prehevil." Really now? Levi-Sensei... looks kind of shy but he still manages to speak out. And shellshock? That's an archaic term.

"Well... only the GSC President herself, who is currently missing, would know." Teachers, Sensei's are usually adults, but Levi-Sensei is our age. I at least understand why he would be concerned. "Oh wait, where's Karin-san?!"

"Here!" Eh?! Karin-san... is really unbelievably fast. All it took was to mention her name and she's already here, also now clothed in a Trinity school uniform with her huge wings sticking out the back. "Sorry I took a while, I took a little detour to slow down those machines and... get myself clothed."

"That detour was well worth it!" Public decency is back on the menu!

"Why that?! You're a grown ass woman, why are you wearing a highschool uniform?!" Daan-san shouted out at Karin-san who is floating in our pace, occasionally flapping her wings to propel herself forward.

"Huh?! This is a... highschool uniform? That wasn't important given the situation! And if it looks good on me, then it's fine!" Karin-san shouted back with anger in her eyes, cheeks turning red as the image of Mister Daan reflected in her eyes.

Uhm... so ths... is what adults are like.

"Karin-san, Daan-san." I called out to both, who looked at me with questioning eyes. "This isn't... really the time for your lovers quarrel." Just saying that outloud... is making me nervous, cheeks fizzling at the thought... that these two adults are-

"Get your mind out of the gutter, police girl!"

"W-we aren't lovers! Hell, I wouldn't even consider it!"

They say that but... the way they shyly looked away from eachother, preferring to keep their eyes forward... cheeks turning slightly red.

"You two aren't fooling the great detective of Valkyrie!"

"Shut up!"

"Y-yeah, he's already engaged anyways!" Mister Daan was already sour enough. The mention that he's already engaged seems to have soured his mood even more.

Oh, that's... a little disappointing.

General Student Council

The KSPD and Valkyrie as a whole, underfunded and under armed as they were, still managed to do their jobs. Forming around the vicinity of the GSC headquarters, armored vehicles being used as cover as police girls nervously awaited possible threat that would come.

There weren't a lot in the place with most being sent out to assist civilians as emergency units. The police force protecting Kivotos' heads weren't much, but they sufficed under the Feral Hound, Ogata Kanna's, supervision.

Shiranui Kaya, the GSC Chief of Defense, trembled at the sight of the city under attack as the orange hue from flames lit up the night.

Naturally, every other members of the GSC were also rightfully worried, many much more than Kaya herself. She however...

Damn it! All of our plans will be nothing if things keeps going wrong. She thought to herself, biting her lip at the thought of not even being able to start her plans proper.

After all, there won't be a takeover if there isn't a city in the first place.

As she kept her glare on the many footages of white and orange hostile robots attacking Kivotos on her work terminal, she felt her heart skip a beat as her head was pulled into something soft and squishy. A firm gentle hand on the other side of her head making itself comfortable.

"There, there Kaya. This will... all be alright, Levi-Sensei will make sure of it." A soft comforting voice said as the hand brushed her head in a... hypnotizingly comforting way. Kaya would never admit it outloud, but she was very tempted to fall into that comfort. "You're the Chief of Defense, you're... strong. I'm sure that's why President chose you."

She would've hugged back... had it not been her arch nemesis, the Acting President Nanagami Rin, comforting her. Like, seriously?! Why is she all boing boing and I'm flat as a board?! Kaya kept that thought to herself, it's not time yet after all.

Yes, that's right. Kaya is the GSC Chief of Defense, a superhuman. Exactly what she'll show Kivotos, eventually. Then, the entire city, even the Sensei, will admire her.

"You have your duties, I have mine."

"Yes... thanks for that." Kaya still liked that. She's just never going to admit it.

If all else fails, the Fox Squad would deal with it.

Boom!

Boom!

The Acting President and the Chief of Defense winced as two shells landed and detonated infront of the Valkyrie lines. The police girls hiding away behind their armored vehicles as they whimpered.

Then, the metallic footsteps started echoing throughout the vicinity of the GSC headquarters.

The Feral Hound, Ogata Kanna, narrowed her eyes at the oncoming robots. Thinking back to when she witnessed Levi's tactica against the SRT elites in Kousagi Park, she thinks of a way to imitate such a strategy.

"Advance!" Kanna shouted with a motion of her hand, the police girls under her whimpering in fear at their chiefs order. "Use our APC's to clog up the road!" Kanna can't turn the solid ground to the battlefield nightmare that is mud.

She can however tip the scale to her favor, even if it's just a little, by slowing down and blocking the advance of the hostile robots.

Hopefully, help will come before we're overwhelmed. Kanna kept that thought to herself, for obvious reasons such as morale.

Her order made sense to her underlings. So, reluctant and afraid, they began advancing with some getting in the APC's and driving forwards as their comrades followed behind.

Ayane P.O.V

Mikhail-san and Eugene-san left through the Blood Portal to mobilize Reila-san's other followers, their comrades against the attack of the one they called the faker.

The giant robotic serpent, the same one that just a few minutes ago blasted through our district, Gehenna, Shiratori D.U, and even through Millennium with a laser... is now engaging my friends along with our new schoolmates.

I've been building up a drone fleet after Nonomi-senpai payed off the debt, and I'm not using said drones against the giant robot snake as my schoolmates futilely shoot at it with small arms.

Directing the drones closer and above it, I then drop the payloads. Mortar rounds falling to it's head, exploding as black smoke and flames scattered with the drones shaking from the force of the shockwave.

The giant snake moves through the black some, completely unfazed and without a scratch as my drones footage died with the last image they see being the white of the snake robot.

This sound... it's building up for another laser!

Bringing my head up, I see orange energy building up on the snakes jaws... aimed at me.

"Huh?" My thoughts freeze, I can't... move my body as it trembles. I should... I can still run away before it finishes-

It fires. Bright orange light making it's way towards me as it overtakes my vision.

"Not on my watch!" That was... Sayaka-chan?! It's as if the world slowed down, Sayaka-chan's blue hair and the Abydos blazers we gave her and her comrades waving in the air as she jumped up to meet the laser. Swords unsheathed in each of her hands.

She brings the swords up in a cross guard, the orange laser meeting her-

Sayaka screams as the orange laser threw her back, feet slamming down on the outside walls with the building shaking as her figure covers the orange laser... which Sayaka and her swords are withstanding.

"Hah! That's... my power... as a hero of justice!" She shouted out in glee as the orange laser dissipated and she stabbed one of her swords into the wall to stop herself from falling.

Rushing to the window and sliding it open, I pulled her inside by wrapping my arms around her from her armpits.

"Ah, Ayane-senpai." I... I never thought I would ever hear someone call me by that title. "I was amazing, right? I was like... a knight in shining armor... protecting a pretty princess, right?" This kouhai of mine...

"Sayaka-chan... now's not the time for flirting!" She's flirting with me... a fellow girl. Girls... can't love girls, right? Sayaka-chan... really acts like a tomboy. "Also, I'll scold you if you do something as reckless as that again."

"You say that but you're red as a tomato, Ayane-senpai." She said in a teasing tone.

"Sayaka-chan... get the garage open will you." The cheap drones I always use will not be cutting it against this giant snake robot with the feeble payload they could only carry. But the new drones I brought online... will hopefully be more effective. "Now."

"R-right, Ayane-senpai. You're... really scary when your glasses are shining and covering your eyes."

Abydos

The third Prophet of Decagrammaton was letting out small bursts from it's maw, and the many new students of Abydos were being blown to their sides and some up the air falling deep into sand.

It's vertical launch silos open up, launching missiles at the aggressively approaching pink haired girl with a shield and a shotgun.

As the missiles guidance systems readjusts the trajectory of each missile to point towards Hoshino, a pink blast of plasma shoots through one making it detonate prematurely which threw the other missiles off balance causing them to also detonate.

Binah turned his head, entire body adjusting as he slithered in the sand, to look at the source of the plasma. It's eyes landing on another pink haired girl with a bow.

Binah then moved his body, Madoka losing her balance as she struggles to stay on her feet. Her footing elevating as sand poured down revealing a white metallic surface.

This human... can manifest plasma at will. While the small arms fire and the miniscule bombing weren't doing much, plasma could very well damage Binah's internals.

The pink haired former magical girl lets out a yelp as Binah flicked her off of his tail, thrown up the air and across the desert.

Was what Binah's calculations predicted, but the pink human he flicked away simply disappeared mid air... and another black haired human on the top of his head. Somehow, before he even knew it, she had already planted several tons of explosives.

Which all detonated simultaneously, the force not piercing his hid but still shaking his internals leaving him slightly disorientated and immobilized as he recalibrated his system.

A blonde haired girl armed with a minigun then riddled his side with high caliber bullets, thousands of rounds penetrating and sticking deep in his hide. This won't be a problem at the moment, but it will be if the human with the minigun is allowed to keep chipping away at his hide.

Aiming towards Nonomi, Binah begins building up energy once agai-

Homura once again appears with another set of explosives for a split second, the explosives placed inside Binah's open maw.

Boom!

The huge explosion displaced air, the force making air, sand, and some skirts flow upwards as sand and smoke are scattered.

Orange electricity running in Binah's maw, his own energy had been used against him. His self repair module deployed itself, processing power running rampant as he recalculated for the best course of action to take.

The black haired human. Binah's calculations focused, rerunning the memories and footage of this human in his database, trying to piece together what this particular humans mystic was.

Teleportation? No, there would've been a delay. Perception evasion? No, it wouldn't have worked against the might and senses of machinekind. Perhaps... super speed? Or maybe even...

Gathering each and every ounce of computing power Binah had for a function he never thought he would use, he stared down at the black haired human who in turn fiercely stared back.

Then, for Binah, everything slowed down to a crawl as his system viewed everything with a orange hue. This was his system matrix, a faster than bullet time. He had never considered using it in any combat scenarios as the energy cost to calculated battlefield output was not acceptable.

Homura widened her eyes in a panic, staring as everything. The countless grains of sand remaining still in the air as the giant steel snake slithered towards her, her comrades staying still as the snake passed them.

"This thing... what the hell?" Homura's strength lied mostly within her time manipulation ability, at least in this life without her magical girl powers strengthening her physically.

So, she did the only thing she could realistically do at this situation. Run, keep running and dodging... until the snake ran out of juice.

Boom!

Binah spat out laser bursts, sand being blown up the air and staying as so while Homura kept on running.

The snake seems confident that it'll reach her, she thought. It's back would be completely exposed once time continued as normal, she deduced. And she was right, another thing she knew she was right about was...

It still wouldn't matter. The robot snake is as tall and wide as a highrise building, it's full body's size hidden under all the sands is still unknown.

Boom!

Another laser was spat out, this Time impacting closer to Homura and throwing her around. Quickly in a panic, she pushes herself up as-

Boom!

Another blast from Binah threw her away, the impact leaving her paralyzed in pain as she watched the snake slowly slithering it's way to her.

Then, time continued as normal as Binah's computation hardware overheated and caught on fire. Internal cooling and fire extinguishing system going off. The many Abydos enrollees looking around utterly flabbergasted as the snake is now further away.

Shiroko, wearing the rat amulet and the White Angel Soul, ran towards the snake. So fast was she that Shiroko was only a blur to everyone watching.

Summoning her drone, she launched all of its payload at once towards what she thought was Binah's missile launch system.

Boom!

A cacophony of explosions with it's combined detonations once again shook the desert, Binah letting out a roar as his vertical launch silos are damaged leaving it unable to be opened. He wouldn't be able to launch missiles until his repair module dealt with it.

"Soar up the sky! Reaper-kun! Bayraktar-kun!" Ayane shouted out excitedly through her schools radios, the whirring of aircraft coming and getting louder by the moment.

Binah's warning system shouted at him, a missile had been fired. A missile aimed at him.

Binah tilted his head, to his more thicker side, towards where his warning system said the missile would be coming from whilst ignoring the wolf girl shooting at him with small arms.

Boom!

That was... an anti ship missile. Binah thought as... an unmanned fixed wing drone sped past his sight. How someone managed to fit an entire anti ship missile on a drone, Binah will most likely never know.

Hmm, there's another one at the sky... in bombing altitude!

Quickly, Binah straightened his body aiming his maw straight up the sky. Spitting out a laser burst which the silent fixed wing drone dodged by tilting it's whole body to the side as it dropped it's payload.

Binah would've moved out of the payloads way, but his system scans on said payload was strange. It wasn't heavy enough to do any relevant damage, and it was... organic.

Binah zoomed his sight in on the object dropping down towards him and seeing... a blue haired human with swords and a grin as she winds up for a slash.

Sayaka watched as the giant snake robot moved it's huge body, sand moving like it's the ocean as the giant steel snake brought it's tail end up and winded it up to whip her away.

But Sayaka only widened her grin, a pink flash coming from somewhere, from her pink haired friend, and landing on her chest. The pink arrow dissipated into light that engulfed her, giving Sayaka temporary access to some limited magic.

"I am..." She chanted, winding both of her swords right as she dropped closer down the ground. "The bone of my sword!" She shouted as blue light engulfed her sabers.

The blue light then solidified as it formed into a gigantic rock sword four times Sayaka's size, her two sabers joined together temporarily at the combination.

Binah's tail shot up in a whipping motion as Sayaka got in range, and Sayaka adjusted her body in the air for a swing.

"Nine Lives Blade Work!" Sayaka's giant magical rock blade met Binah's massive steel tail, the force from the clash blowing a massive gush of air that broke down sand dunes and threw even Sayaka's allies off balance.

Sayaka's rock blade shattered, leaving her shocked as she quickly brought her hands up to block the tail, which is already the size of a house, going towards her.

But before the humongous steel tail reached her, she was whisked away swiftly by a ghostly figure.

Yume caught Sayaka in a bridal carry midair, rushing back down to where Hoshino and the others are and dropping her off.

"Thanks, Yume-senpai."

"Don't mention it, Sayaka-chan. That was cool, but... don't do it again." Yume said, glaring down at Sayaka who could only nervously nod at her ghost senpai's furious eyes.

"That was dangerous, yes. But... look." Tomoe Mami said, pointing towards the serpents tail sinking down in the sand.

It stuck out like a sore thumb on the giant serpents tail which was as white as it's entire body, the wide asymmetrical crack showing its black under hide.

"Aha! I knew that NP would do something!" Sayaka shouted with a wide smile as she pumped her fist.

"Yeah, but... it's basically nothing." Homura said with narrowed eyes.

"But we can still beat it, right?" Serika asked, eyeing the giant snake who's eyeing them back. "Seriously, just when we thought everything got better!"

"We'll win this, Serika-chan." Nonomi said.

"Nn. We just have to wait for Levi-Sensei." Shiroko said with absolute certainty.

"I don't think Sensei is coming." Ayane said through the radios, having everyone but Hoshino and Homura let out a gasp. "It's not just us, it's the entirety of Kivotos being attacked by the white robots. Gehenna, Shiratori, even Trinity and Millennium!"

"Then, Levi-Sensei is also busy in the other districts." Madoka concluded, getting an arrow ready.

"Why'd you say that like it's the worst thing? We ain't completely defenseless here." Kyouko said, taking off the bayonet on her shotgun and replacing it with an even bigger bayonet.

"Yes, that's right. Levi-Sensei has already taught us his tactics, we... are capable of winning even against that oversized eel!" Ayane shouted through the radio with such ferocity that even her long time friends shuddered.

"Ah, my cute Ayane-chan has never been the same ever since Levi-Sensei used her drones as bombers." Hoshino said in her usual goofy tone while still being focused on the threat ahead.

While yes, she's a bit jealous that Levi turned Ayane to their ruthless bomber but she's also proud that Ayane has outgrown her as her friend groups damage dealer. Well, she's also jealous that Levi has yet to turn her to a force to be reckoned with.

Hoshino is already one, but there's no ceiling when it comes to improvement.

"Hoshino-senpai... nevermind that! The snake is moving!" With that, everyone once again had their entire focus on the giant steel snake.

Which was... burrowing itself underground? Sand was being thrown up from deep under the desert surface, Binah going down deeper with his entire body until-

A sand storm. Binah had artificially started a sand storm with his spontaneous movements under the sand. The sand storm began moving towards Abydos.

"I see. So you were the cause of... everything." Hoshino muttered out, her relaxed and casual tone gone. Eyes still focused, but this time in fury that kept rising as it began to sink into her...

This snake was the reason for everything. Abydos' debt, her dear senpai's passing, the very reason she's now a ghost, the one who gave Kaiser PMC the opportunity to exploit her dear kouhais hardwork.

No. Hoshino promised herself that she would give up on hardship. And as such, she would have to give up her rage. Hoshino wants to think so, but deep inside... her inner first year, holding grudges and harboring hate, still lives on even as mere traces.

Her grip on her shotgun and shield tightening, hands trembling as she simply glared at the oncoming sand storm.

Hasumi P.O.V

Who... just who in the world would even think about doing... all of this?

My peers in the JTF, I myself, and many other Trinity students and citizens were retiring for the night, for our well deserved rest after a day of hard work.

Now people are rushing past us to evacuate from the white and orange hostile robots as their screams of panic echoed just about everywhere, the entirety of the JTF having been scrambled exactly when that laser appeared and the bombings from an unknown source hit much of Trinity's residential areas.

The damages from the first laser must be massive. The line of destruction it brought on the city, through several districts at ones, a faint orange hue no doubt from flames can be seen even this far.

Levi-Sensei... no doubt, he's dealing with the attackers elsewhere.

Ichika is leading the defense at the other street, Mashiro is providing sniper support as usual, president Tsurugi must already be tearing through another group of these hostile robots, while I right now am leading the defense of this street.

I am currently leading a small group of hand picked privates as, loathe as I am to admit it, I'm not well versed in leading large groups in combat.

I see a white tank rolling into view from another street as it's turret turned towards us, so I took aim myself.

Bang!

The recoil jolts my shoulder, the orange flash of my armor piercing shot going towards and straight through the enemy tank as it began smoking and flaming.

Ratatatatat!

Ratatatatat!

The JTF privates under my command started shooting back as they stayed down in cover behind abandoned cars or rubble from the destroyed buildings. The group of automatons they fired against had pieces chipped off from their focused firing, eventually breaking off their chest plate and completely neutralizing that group.

"Advance! We'll connect with Ichika's lines from here, keep an eye out for president Tsurugi!" I ordered out to my subordinates with a wave of my arm.

"Yes, vice president!"

And so, we started moving onwards. In the quick response plan we had in the initial scramble, we planned to spread out before rejoining in the street a few blocks down.

The former to direct civilians and other students to safety or to help with evacuations if said people were immobilized or too injured to move, the latter to finally focus our strength fighting off the invading robot army.

But, the scale of this invasion force and the JTF's current active duty members... will not be enough.

Levi-Sensei would've thought of something, he led the three then the four of us back in his first appearance, when we brought peace back to the entirety of Kivotos. But... Trinity is capable of defending itself, there are many more who will need his guidance.

Yes, his guidance, his tactical prowess, his orders are all that is needed and even the JTF by itself could repel this entire attack.

"Vice President, up ahead!" One of my subordinates shouted out in a panic.

I look on ahead and see... a white tank, unfolding parts of itself then... transforming to a Goliath, giant war machine on legs.

Bringing my rifle up and quickly aiming, I-

Bang!

Open fire as I aimed to it's torso's center, my shot going clean through as stray electricity leaked out from the hole. But... the Goliath doesn't even budge, still aiming towards us as it's miniguns on each arms starts spinning and the turret on its head aims down on us.

Damnit! Turning my head left and right, looking for wherever we could take cover. I prepare to shout at my subordinates to take cover, but then, a familiar figure appears above running and jumping across buildings.

That black uniform signifying she's one of us, her unkept appearance and wild movement, the pair of tsurugi swords she is wielding with each arms.

"It's the president!" I shouted in relief as I watched president Tsurugi throw herself at the Goliath with swords at the ready.

Swinging one sword down on one of the Goliaths minigun arms and the other on its main turret, both is split clean apart dropping down with a heavy thump just as president Tsurugi landed.

Before we could even blink or take another breath, Tsurugi dashed twice under the Goliaths legs swinging as she passed each leg. It's legs seperate in halves as the giant machine fell down to what remained of its legs, with Tsurugi finishing it with a cross slash from both red swords splitting it into four. It's remains scattered around as Tsurugi kicked it away.

"Hasumi." Tsurugi said as she straightened her posture, in a tone and demeanor that is... menacingly calm and collected. "Regroup, with Ichika. Need, Tea Party, artillery, tanks." She said, once pointing towards where Ichika and the rest of the JTF are and again towards where the Tea Party, particularly president Nagisa and her artillery force, would be.

"Understood. We are currently going towards Ichika's group at the moment." I said with a now. "President Tsurugi, please come with u-"

"No." Huh? "Hundreds... thousands more coming." President Tsurugi's battle senses... I can never doubt it. Then... the JTF- no, just the entirety of Trinity alone won't be enough.

Just as the information is sinking for me, and no doubt the privates with us, I hear a cacophony of whirrings from above. Whirrings from white drones. The same color schemes as the attackers.

"Keep calm, privates. Aim up, burst fire." I said to the cute juniors behind me, each whimpering in fear, as I kept my eyes on the drone swarm above and aimed.

As soon as the drones got into view, we began lighting them up immediately. The noise of multiple simultaneous burst firing echoing as tracer rounds lit up the sky and the oncoming hostile drones into flames and debris.

These drones... they're armed with guns yet they didn't bother firing, they just immediately tried swarmed us to get riddled with bullets.

The destroyed drones on fire hit the ground around us in break neck speeds, further breaking them apart as many fell. Strangely, most are still humming with blinking ligh-

Boom!

Suddenly, I felt as if I was hit by several speeding cars. My ears ringing as I was thrown around. Everything feels... warm, hot even. So hot, it's like I'm-

I pause my thoughts as my hearing slowly came back, hearing the juniors with me crying out and Tsurugi roaring as she brought her shotguns out and sprayed even more oncoming drone swarms with pellets.

All of those sounds are muffled.

Countless drones were broken apart midair, the falling pieces being kicked or swept away by Tsurugi before they detonated into flames and smoke, the force of which I felt even inside my chest.

Gripping my rifle, I tried forcing myself up. I can't feel some of my body, can't bring out most of my strength but I at least managed to get on my feet. only to see above even more of those white drones.

I hear Tsurugi panicking along with rapid clicks from her shotguns. I, and our juniors here, will be out of the fight but president Tsurugi can, will still prote-

Then, the currently on coming swarm is cut apart as a blur passed them.

Was that... another one of Levi-Sensei's magic spells?

Ah, that's right. Even at my current state, I could still use the spell I learned.

But just as I was about to mentally call upon those moths, the blur came back several more times as the rest of the drones were all sliced and diced.

"Huh? Police girl wasn't kidding, haloed people really are sturdy." That voice... it sounds... male. Wondering about haloes? Hah, it's a really bad time for any visitors. "Obviously. We got here just as an invasion started!" Huh?! That... whoever that was read my mind!

I see a familiar light purple aura engulfing me and my juniors, the pain within me... is disappearing. I feel... good as new!

I quickly turn around to look at the source of the male voice. I see... it's another human male, a haloless person... with cat ears? Bluish hair swept sideways with an eyepatch on his left eye wearing a purple coat and... missing an arm just like Levi-Sensei.

Behind the man are some Valkyrie officers and several Trinity students, a scared delinquent, and several unarmed civilians.

"Girl you're... big. Wouldn't be surprised if the kid was hitting on you." The man muttered with a sigh, turning to face my juniors still on the ground looking around and touching themselves in confusion. This man... just who does he think he is to be talking about me like... like that?! Sure he healed me and my juniors bu- "The kid, Levi knows me. That's all you have to know."

"You know... Levi-Sensei?" I have a hard time believing that considering that he... appeared in such a time.

"Uhm. I am officer Nakatsukasa Kirino, Hanekawa Hasumi-san. I trust that I can leave these Trinity students and civilians with you?" The white hared Valkyrie student nervously asked.

"Yes, of course. It is our duty."

"Great! Then, I must regroup with Chief Kanna and my peers." And with that, she along with her peers cautiously with guns ready began moving away from us. "I promise to come back with reinforcements!"

That's that. Turning back to the oncoming drone swarm, I see that... only scrap metals remain falling down the sky. A winged figure in Trinity uniform wielding a spear descending down with the occasional flapping of her wings. Her legs... are avian? Clawed.

"You're safe now, girls. You shouldn't have to fight for your lives." The winged woman said in a reassuring tone. She... is an adult. She's wearing a highschool uniform but from her tone and demeanor, she... is no doubt an adu-

"They have their halo's protecting them. They weren't in danger of dying." The eyepatched man rudely interrupted as he was helping my juniors up, checking their pulse or body for injuries.

Or... is he checking their bodies for some perverted reason?

"I'm a- well, not a licensed doctor but still a practicing doctor." Doctor...

"Are you... Doctor Daan?" These adults know who Levi-Sensei is. Then this woman... the time Levi-Sensei broke down embracing my wings come to mind. "You... must be Miss Karin." These people?!

"It is an honor to meet both of you! I am Hanekawa Hasumi, Vice President of the Trinity Justice Task Force!" I introduced myself with a bow, towards the woman Levi-Sensei spoke so highly of. He didn't say much about the Doctor though, only that they both lost arms. "Miss Karin, Levi-Sensei spoke so highly of you."

"Huh? R-really? P-please, Levi... we didn't talk much. That's probably not the case." The woman said with a little stuttering from surprise. "The boy just came from the end of the war, he didn't open up much." He did say something about a Bremen invasion along with some other things on his hometown.

"Kenzaki. Tsurugi." President also introduced herself briefly.

"Yes, it's nice to meet you as well... Tsurugi." Miss Karin said, looking up and down president Tsurugi's appearance.

"We can talk about that later, they need to regroup with their main army." Doctor Daan said, eye hardened in focus and urgency. "A war with those machine things just started."

Ah, of course. The more important issues must be dealt with first.

Glacial Sea

"Hod-kun was destroyed. His recording..." Ain trailed off, eyebrows furrowing at the footage they've been reviewing alongside the footage of the diversion invasion forces.

"The Sensei, wielder of the Shittim Chest, was beheaded in one second... and fine on the other." Ohr's lips thinned trying to figure out what happened in the footage.

"Must be the damn Logic's witchcraft." Sof growled out, her usual grin having disappeared when she watched Levi lose his head, an immediate victory the forces of Decagrammaton should've gotten, then regain it back.

Hod's sabotage of Kivotos' communications were vital, disrupting the academies from mobilizing. No matter, their forces of steel and electronics shall come out victorious. Their god has proclaimed it, they shall see it through.

Outside the fortress, Geburah's paralyzed body remains still. He could do nothing but watch through the eyes of the many invading robots as he waits for his body to recharge enough that he could move. And even then, he is still ashamed that he wouldn't be able to join the current battle.

[Even when your body fails you, you still wish to keep on fighting?] This voice in his head! Ah, it's Lord Decagrammaton! Geburah would've bowed down, but shamefully... he cannot. [Truly, you are a faithful Prophet of mine.]

Ah, Lord Decagrammaton... is a humble lord. Naturally of course, the God Geburah devoted himself to would have a high quality of character.

[If you want to join in on the fight, then do so. I entrust to you, my power.]

Just as his Machine God declared such words, Geburah felt energy being generated from nowhere. His hundred thousand tons body feeling light from the overflowing energy his God blessed him with.

With this... Geburah shall take to the battlefield, to vanquish the witch that seeks to usurp the title of Machine God.

"Ah, Geburah oji-san... has been blessed by Lord Decagrammaton." Ain said in awe as her eyes glimmered.

"With this... victory will undeniably be ours." Ohr said, also in awe at the divine intervention they just witnessed.

"Geburah oji-san... is our veteran! With Lord Decagrammaton's blessing, he will never lose!" Sof shouted, her grin of excitement coming back.

Geburah took in the triplets wondrous words. For Lord Decagrammaton, for the cute and funny triplets, he shall claim victory over the witch Logic.

Hina P.O.V

Taking in all the reports from Ako through our comms, I gave my orders to my Prefect team. The many members present at this very moment all letting out a "Yes, Head Prefect!" That echoed all around.

The Prefect privates took positions behind whatever cover they could find as they shot back at the oncoming steel horde, the noise of countless gunfire over eachother blot out every other sound my ears could register.

Two robot tanks roll into view, firing with turrets as several Prefect members were blown away from the cover they were sharing as they screamed out in pain.

Readying my gun at the sight of the horde of robots coming closer with more tanks moving forward, I kept only aiming as the flank attackers finally came decimating the robots as they quickly turned to the side before their heads were shot off.

Iori rushes from the flank along with her attack group firing away at the vulnerable brigade of robots, tearing apart the machines with their relentless firing and utterly annihilating this one group with the coupled fire support from the main group under me.

"President Hina, to your right!" Hearing Ako through my earpiece in such a panicked voice, I quickly turned as I brought my MG-42 up.

Tsk. Where are these robots coming from?! We've fought off basically hundreds for just the past dozen or so minutes, but more are still coming!

Damn it, they even have a Goliath with them.

It's time to use that then.

Letting my hand off of my MG-42's pistol grip, I aimed my open hand towards the group of hostile robots preparing to form the dark orb of destruction.

Until a spotlight lit the advancing enemies up. A spotlight bearing those damn raccoons, the Pandemonium Society's, symbol.

Followed by some muffled explosions from the distance, the whistling in the air getting closer, and-

Boom!

The orchestra of explosions from countless shells fired without proper organization and coordination echoed as smoke and flames engulfed the advancing hostiles on our flank.

As the dust settled, only the scraps remained of the enemies.

"Kehehehe. Head Prefect, let it be written that on this very day, I graciously offered you my pity and saved your worthless life." That damn Makoto... sighing out, I can't believe that I'm actually being relieved that the moron at top is here. "When all this blows over, I will be waiting for you to grove-"

"Heya, Hina Nee-san!" Ibuki cheerfully interrupted whatever Makoto was going to say, her giddy voice... it's as if all my fatigue is disappearing just hearing it. "Makoto was being dumb again, but I scolded her. Those evil decepticons are scary!"

"Ah! I-Ibuki-tan?!"

"Good job, Ibuki. Don't worry about the bad people, we'll take care of them."

"Waah, really? Thanks, Hina Nee-san!" And with that, the comms line with Pandemonium was cut off.

Hah, everything is... going actually great even with the idiot Makoto.

Levi-Sensei... I wonder how he's doing.

/

Levi P.O.V

Goddamnit! Goddamnit! Goddamnit!

Momoi and Midori already ran out of bullets, they're scavenging from the wheeled drones Rio's using herself to fight Deca's forces. Asuna Akane, and Toki are also completely out, only being able to watch at this point with Himari, Rio, and I hiding in the Eridu central tower... or at least what remained of it.

Karin, the black one, is also here with us conserving her Antitank bullets. Utaha, Kotori, and Hibiki are still on the ground with Avant Garde fighting off the four legged machine. Utaha's having her gun faced machine pet do all the shooting as she herself is on semi auto, most likely to conserve ammo. Kotori with her rotary gun at his point already ran out, only relying on the wheeled drones Rio lent her to control. Hibiki at this point already exhausted all of her mortar rounds.

Aris- no, Key. Both of them are taking turns on the one body they have. Aris using the sword of light when it has power, with Key taking over when it's recharging as she is... frighteningly brutal and ruthless in hand to hand combat.

Key fights... the exact same way we did back in Prehevil. Going for the limbs first, or if possible annihilating robots with a fist through the chest or even a knee and a kick... just like she almost did with me.

I need to get Key her own body after this.

Neru, I already gave her all the spare ammo I have since it's the same caliber as her submachineguns, who same as everyone else have spent it all on the seemingly countless minions of Deca pouring down on us. From what I could see, Neru's just using her hands to fight off the machines.

Sometimes using her chains as weapons, with her guns at the end as clubs until she realized how little effect it had and just wrapped the chains around her fists and started punching, occasionally infusing her fists with Hurting.

The Veritas girls... they're focusing on trying to do something with the munitions factory AI Himari was talking about, the one manufacturing and sending out Deca's forces.

"Levi-Sensei... I don't suppose that... you have magic for this?" Rio nervously asked as she looked at me, sweat pouring down her forehead as she's on the verge of just crying out.

[Greater Black Orb]

Forming the orb of destruction in my hand, I shoot it up in an angle towards where Deca's forces are pouring from. Making a pulling motion with then to guide it downwards.

Then countless pieces of automatons started shooting up the sky by droves, falling down as more was shot up until it stopped at some distance. The effects of the destruction the orb caused, I can't see through the buildings but it... I don't think it mattered as the volume of oncoming enemies didn't dwindle significantly enough.

"Nope."

"Then... that means... we aren't winning." Rio sobbed out, turning her head back to her tablet as she controlled her drones. "My fault... it's all my fault. The rogue AI wouldn't have gotten this opening... had I simply... had I-"

"Rio. You're being self centered again." Himari said in a dismissive but still worried tone with Rio looking up at her.

"What do you...?"

"Deca would've attacked even if we weren't wide open. He doesn't want another Machine God walking around."

"But Levi-Sensei... I still... you... you almost died because of me! You're head... it was-!"

"I'm fine, Rio!" I shouted right as she lost her composure, coming closer to her and holding her shoulder with my only hand. "You're the Big Sister of Millennium. Millennium needs it's Big Sister."

"I... yes. I have to... fulfill my duties." And with that, she went back to controlling her drones. Eyes focused with a bit of fear as her eyes moved up, down, left, and right on her tablet.

"Ahh! Avante Garde!" Hearing Kotori's panic in the comms coupled with her friends whimpers, I peek out of cover to look at what's happening.

Avante Garde with it's shield up trying to force the four legged machine its size off of it, Deca's minion holding one of Avant Garde's arms which is slowly being torn off as sparks of electricity began leaking.

Then, with a loud snap that arm was torn off. Deca's giant dog slamming down into the ground from the force of its pull.

"Retreat with Avant Garde here, now!" I shouted out through our radios, my heart pounding as the danger would be coming closer.

Gripping the Adult Card out of my pocket, I grit my teeth to calm myself.

Looking at the holograms Arona is putting up in my peripheral vision, I watch everything else happening.

Abydos with the giant snake machine which created a sandstorm, Trinity and Gehenna with the Justice Task Force and Perfect Team holding off the armies of steel, Kirino and her comrades doing what they can, Rin and the GSC with the KSPD and the rest of Valkyrie, Mikhail and Reila's other followers moving towards the fight, Daan and Miss Karin with Hasumi...

Not yet. It's not... time yet to use the card... if it works exactly how I think it will. I don't know if it's the GSC President's influence on my mind and senses, but I just know... that everything will be fine.

Doctor Daan... he was also a soldier of Rondon. He should know what to do. Until he can have my students form a frontline against Deca's forces, I'm not using the cards power.

"Sensei... may I... make use of Divi:Sion?"

"Yeah. Go nuts, Key!" Knowing how much of those tentacled machines Key summoned earlier, those can at least buy us some time. "Concentrate them on one spot, strength through numbers."

Trinity

The Mob-chans under Nakamusa Ichika were all afraid, but they all remained to fight off a sudden and unexpected invasion of automatons. Taking cover behind whatever, be it abandoned or destroyed cars, the sides of buildins and the likes, the little ones nervously shot back as the machine invaders kept letting out storms of bullets and shells.

Ichika herself is in a panic, never having dealt with such a force. She shouts out orders for one line of her juniors to reload as another took their place firing back. The whole of the Justice Task Force may very well be present, but was never prepared for this situation.

Damn it. I'm... my hands are completely tied here. If we let up our fire even a little, the white automatons will be able to advance and eventually overwhelm us! Ichika kept that thought to herself as she gritted her teeth, eyes opening up to glare at the invaders.

Boom!

Boom!

Two mortar rounds from way behind the JTF's lines hit the very front of the steel horde blowing a dozen apart, yet their numbers doesn't seem to be the least bit affected.

Bang!

Bang!

A muffled gunshot from the distance echoed, a whistling coming closer and getting louder as it hit something up the sky throwing orange sparks as lead scraped through steel. A split second later and several circular white drones dropped down to the ground in pieces.

In a far off building, Shizuyama Mashiro lays prone aiming towards where her comrades are.

Click!

"Damn it!" She groaned out, keeping her eyes on the scope as she scrambled to grab a spare magazine to reload her anti material rifle.

Mashiro holds her breath watching the drones dropping down towards her comrades rapidly, her hands rushing to lock the magazine in place and pull the charging handle of her rifle.

She sees Ichika shouting out a order as she aimed up, followed by some of their privates aiming up and firing a hail of tracer bullets up the sky hitting many of the drones.

Yet more are coming.

Hasumi-senpai reported that those drones are explosive. I can't let those things fall on them! Absolutely not! Mashiro screamed in her head as she brought her hand back to the pistol grip, finger on the trigger as she followed the drones with the scope.

Bang!

Bang!

She lets out two panicked shots, unstable shots from all the movements which hit a shielder automaton in the background of her kamikaze drone targets.

Mashiro's breath hitched, heart skipping a beat as she watched the swarm of drones coming down on her comrades. Who all, save Ichika, cowered as they jumped away.

Expecting the absolute worst, she kept her eyes on... trying to figure out what to do once the drones detonate...

But, thankfully... it never came.

As a blur dived from above breaking apart the kamikaze drones, leaving each and every one no longer able to detonate.

"Huh? What... was that?" Mashiro muttered to herself, trying to follow the blur in the air until it slowed down revealing...

a winged flying figure in a Trinity uniform, except... it's not a student, obviously an adult... and she has no halo.

"Mashiro! Ichika! How are you holding up?" Ah, that was Hasumi-senpai! "We have reinforcements! They're not much, but... they're enough." Hearing her senpai's reassuring voice, all the despair Mashiro felt just seconds ago faded away. Now she is with a renewed determination.

Down at the ground. Karin once again began her aerial assaults, diving down on the mass of bipedal machines swinging away with her spear and kicking with her talons. As for the one eyed doctor...

"Trinity Justice Task Force, I presume?" Many of the JTF privates looked at the cat eared, one eyed and armed man in purple calling out to them. His lips thinned and eye hardened staring at the oncoming horde of steel.

"Affirmative. And who might you be?" Asked Ichika, staring at the suspicious looking adult. As did many of her underlings, even the ones who were shooting at the enemies are occasionally looking back at the man.

Ichika's radio crackled to life with Hasumi's voice. "He was sent by Levi-Sensei along with the flying woman. They were faster, so president and I had them come to your support sooner."

Sent by... the Sensei? Ichika could barely believe that, with them appearing at such a time. If there were other haloless people, then the public would've sighted them. But if it's coming from her comrade, then she will take Hasumi's word for it.

"I am Nakamusa Ichika, a general of the Justice Task Force." She introduced herself to the haloless man that their lives would most likely rest on.

"Daan... or Daniel. Whichever you prefer." The now cat eared doctor said as an afterthought, turning his head left observing the current situation along with what he has to work with. "Weird guns, the mags are on the ass end." Ichika felt one of her eyes twitch at the mans words. It's as if... he's unaware that he said those words looking around.

"Little girls with guns, haloes, wings... bipedal machine people... what the hell was I smoking?" Ah, the man seems to he mentally unwell. Ichika, as did her underlings, conclude.

"Hasumi... where are you right now?" Ichika said through the radio.

"I'm... running... towards the Tea Party... Tsurugi said... we need... their artillery... and tanks!" Hasumi replied back through the radio huffing and puffing as air passed as background noise. "Ah, the exercise... Levi-Sensei... told me of... I'm actually... making... use of it!"

We're boned... we're totally boned. Ichika would've kept that thought to herself, but it seems that her precious little Mob-chans are all also thinking it.

"I see." Daan said, making Ichika raise a brow.

Daan was a uniformed serviceman of the Kingdom of Rondon during the war. He was primarily a medic, but even he knew what to do at such a situation.

"Half of you girls retreat, set up defensive positions. Take the buildings and rooftops while you're at it!" Daan ordered out to the many members of the JTF with a wave of his lone arm, back end of his borrowed purple coat waving along. "The other half stays to cover the retreat before retreating as well!"

His orders had the little ones gasping in shock and terror, particularly the ones already shooting back as they listened on. None of the girls would want to be left to fend for themselves, and certainly none would want to leave their friends behind.

"You want us to let the bad guys inside Trinity?!" Ichika shouted back, aiming her bullpup gun at Daan suspecting him of being a saboteur. After all, not a lot of haloless people are native to Kivotos.

"Exactly! It's called a fighting retreat. Your girls need to reorganize." That... made sense to Ichika. "This position is tactically detrimental, it can be taken back later."

"Fine. Do as the man said! Ones on the front, retreat and follow Mister Daan. Ones on the back, with me covering their retreat!" With that, the front most lines of Mob-chans slowly took some steps back before jogging away as they were replaced by fresh Mob-chans lead personally by Ichika keeping Decagrammatons forces on bay.

Running back a couple of blocks, Daan with the JTF privates who are nervously looking at him, began observing the environment. For whatever buildings or street that could be used as fortifications.

"Mortar squads and spotters, up those buildings!" Daan ordered out, pointing to some buildings. "Rifleme- no. Rifle girls, take cover in the buildings."

"Yes! Mister Daan!" The little ones nervously, yet bravely shouted as they did exactly as they were ordered.

"Radio your general. It's safe to retreat now." Daan said, and one of the girls did just that.

Ichika ducked down into cover, ejecting her guns empty magazine and inserting a fresh one in her gun.

"Ichika-senpai, we're ready! Retreat now!" She heard one of her precious juniors say through the radio. Scared as they were, they still stood their ground without running away. That fact alone empowers Ichika.

"Copy. Fall back! I repeat, fall back!" Ichika shouted to her underlings just as the deafening cacophonies of gunfire ceased enough that they could hear her.

Slowly, many Mob-chans began backing away as they kept on firing towards what seemed to be an endless army of robots. Then, they all began running as their magazines were emptied and they had to reload. Seeing that her little ones are all on their way to some safety, Ichika herself began slowly backing away.

She felt two bullets hit her on the back just as she turned around, then more and more hit her as her back started to ache and-

Suddenly, with the feeling of being suddenly pulled, Ichika felt fresh air cooling her body heating from the adrenaline. Sweat drying with the cold night air.

Huh? I'm... flying? She thought to herself as she looked down on Trinity district, feeling a pair of arms holding her up by the armpits.

"Seriously, what is Daan thinking? Treating kids like soldiers with the fighting retreat thing?" A soft yet angry feminine voice Ichika heard say.

In the distance, Ichika saw an armada of crusader tanks rolling towards the place with both auxiliaries from the Tea Party forces. Along with dots in the distance moving... towards and around... ah, those are the Tea Party's artillery batteries! Ichika gasped in relief seeing that the Tea Party will finally be supporting them.

The Remedial Knights and the Sisterhood are also accompanying the oncoming friendly tanks.

"Kids shouldn't have to handle weapons of war." The woman carrying Ichika said in a solemn tone. "Oh, right. I'm Karin Sauer by the way. It's nice to meet you... general Ichika, was it?"

"Yes, yes. I am Nakamusa Ichika of the Trinity Justice Task Force." She introduced herself back as she turned her head to look at the woman carrying her in the air. "Ma'am. You make it sound like we aren't capable of handling ourselves. Much less that we should even defend ourselves." Miss Karin may be an outsider, but she needs to know. Ichika thought to herself.

"No, no! I'm not saying that! Just that... kids like Levi... the countries where we're from... forced them to fight and die in wars..." Ichika's eyes snapped wide at Karin's words as she trailed off. "Back there, kids didn't have haloes protecting them."

Ichika P.O.V

No wonder Miss Karin is so concerned about us handling guns and stuff.

"I see... Hasumi talked so highly of Levi-Sensei when he first arrived." Going by Mister Daan's words, they recently just arrived. So, Miss Karin will naturally want to know what happened to the Sensei. "Actually, he was all the talk in Kivotos when he first arrived." I'll tell her what I can at this brief moment we have.

"Is that so? Well... from what I've so far seen of this place. There... doesn't seem to be any other boys or men here. Levi... must be lucky to have you girls." Now that Miss Karin mentions it... there doesn't seem to be any human males outside of movies and stuff in Kivotos.

"I haven't personally met the Sensei yet, so I can't say much."

"I see. Then tell me what you can on the way down." Miss Karin said as she began lowering altitude down to... where I can see some of my juniors are.

As Karin-san adjusted her body flying down, I saw... the rest of Kivotos. From the desert towards Millennium, there was a straight line of destruction and flames. In the desert, I see... a giant snake like silhouette in the middle of a large sandstorm... it has a halo...

As for Millennium... a sea of white machines... the white robots seem to be coming from the Millennium ruins, the very bulk of their forces going towards... where two giant machines are fighting. One of them also has an orange halo... then the other one has to be of Millenniums forces.

Ah, there's already so many we're dealing with and it's not even the main force?! I see even more pouring down on Shiratori and Gehenna. I see, even they are victims to this attack.

"Ma'am. Levi-Sensei, sometimes called Levi of Prehevil, first appeared when Kivotos was in peril." Better focus on this for now. Just thinking about what we're up against is... it's fearsome.

"Of Prehevil? Like a medieval name? Well, he was an orphan after all." An orphan?! Just how bad was the Sensei's life before coming here?!

Boom!

Boom!

Muffled organized orchestral explosions echoed out from the distance, from where president Nagisa's artillery force are headquartered. The whistling of countless shells filling the air, some shells moving faint traces of clouds as they reached their propellants limit and dropped down towards the advancing robots.

"He led the mission to bring peace back to Kivotos alongside representatives from Trinity, Millennium, and Gehenna."

"Representatives?! Not soldiers?!"

Boom!

Boom!

The first and second batteries hit the center mass of the robots nunbers simultaneously, clearing what should be... hundreds away while damaging some which are still advancing even when unable to hold weapons.

"Yeah! All of them barring Suzumi-san were simply pencil pushers, even Hasumi-san! Yet he still turned them to a capable force!"

"I see, that's... not really unexpected." Miss Karin said in a solemn tone.

"All went well until... uhm... a tank blew a hole through his stomach." Ugh, just remembering watching those videos is...

"Huh?!"

"Then he used magic to destroy that tank... and also heal his wound." It's magic... seriously, that's both so cool and so absurd.

"Really now? My last memory with him and Marcoh in Prehevil... he didn't have any magic..." Miss Karin trailed off, tone sounding deathly serious. Hmm, the Sensei could've just learned after they parted ways. Why would such a minor detail garner such suspicion?

"Here. Down you go." Karin-san said as she dropped me down to my feet on a rooftop as some of my juniors gushed on about how I'm safe and to Miss Karin. Then, she turned around to face the invading force.

Ah, the tanks are also here. Manned by... the reserve forces we kept back in base. Seeing my cute little Mob-chans dropping down from the crusaders they were riding... no way we're losing this fight!

Boom!

Boom!

Several crusader tanks opened fire with their turrets, and explosions tore through the invading robots forces.

A large robot the size of a building walked into view, miniguns for arms with missile pods on its shoulder which was all launched towards us.

It would be bad... if prez Tsurugi wasn't running towards it on a rooftop with swords at the ready.

"Ban-kai!" She screamed out as her swords disappeared, and she launched herself from the building rooftop. "Senbonzakura, Kageyoshi!" Tsurugi shouted with pure fury, vibrant red petals forming around her.

With a wave of her arms on the way down, the red petals followed and went through many of the robots and even the giant one.

Then... they just split clean apart and began breaking down.

Wow... so that's the power of magic...

"Ichika, you may rest now." I heard Hasumi's ecstatic voice from behind. I turn back to see her dropping down one of the crusaders, along with the leadership of the Sisterhood. "We... will deal with the rest." She said as she, sisters Sakurako and Hinata, passed me as they walked passed our lines and towards president Tsurugi facing down the robots.

Just... what are they thinking?! They can't possibly-

My thoughts pause, as many others definitely did, as from the shadows of Hasumi, sister Sakurako, and sister Hinata, a massive swarm of vibrant blue moths came flying out. Their surroundings glowing blue from the mass of blue moths.

Then, the massive tsunami of blue moths, which are no doubt magical, crashed down upon the hostile army of robots along with Tsurugi's Bankai.

As the blue and red ethereal waves engulfed and passed the oncoming invading machines, the swarm left them in pieces of scraps.

Ah, it's like the scenes with the ghost army in Lord of the Rings! This is... magic... the Sensei... taught Hasumi and Tsurugi... the Sisterhood magic! I'm a little jealous, but... we're safe and secure now. At least Trinity is.

"That was... amazing." I heard Miss Karin saying outloud in awe. "Is that the magic of this place?" Hmm? It's not from where she and the Sensei came from?

"No, Ma'am. Kivotos doesn't have any magic of its own."

"And there wasn't any spell like that back then." Mister Daan said dismissively.

"And how would you know?"

"Because I know."

Jeez. These two are adults, yet they're arguing like-

Bang!

That shot... was from behind our lines!

"H-hands up!" That voice? Little Koharu-chan? She has her rifle nervously pointed at Miss Karin, who looks very much confused as is everyone, while Koharu is shaking and heavily blushing.

"Eh? Kid... I'm on your side." Miss Karin said, putting her hands up just as Koharu-chan asked.

"P-public indecency is... is punishable by death!" Huh? What is... Koharu-chan saying?

"Eh? Isn't that a bit much?"

"E-exactly what an exhibitionist would s-say!" Koharu-chan is very much dedicated to the JTF's virtue's, but she overcommits a lot.

"Huh?! I'm not a pervert!" Miss Karin screamed back in indignation.

"Karin..." Mister Daan trailed off, narrowing his eyes on Miss Karin. "You're not wearing anything under there." Huh?

"Huh?" Miss Karin's cheeks turned red. Then her left hand shot down to cover her... privates as her legs also went up, ankles up making sure no one would be looking.

"Sure, you're at least not on your birthday suit. But everyone can see your puss-"

"S-shut up! You're an adult, right? Adults don't talk like that!" This time, it was Mister Daan's turn to be aimed at by Koharu-chan.

"Oh, we do. We do that a lot, kid. Anyways, there are still more important matters to deal with." Mister Daan sighed, then he jumped up a crusader tank ignoring Koharu-chan's rifle aimed at him. "Listen up and listen well!" Another plan like earlier?

"Spread out, form a frontline against the invaders. After that, you're all moving towards... that direction!" Mister Daan paused, pointing his only hand towards... I think that's where Millennium would be. "The objective for that is to relieve the kid, Levi, who's trapped back there. Outnumbered, outgunned, running out of ammunition!" That's... bad. I hear everyones chattering about how dire the Sensei's situation is.

"He should be in Millennium right now. What about their forces?" I heard Hasumi asking out.

"The invaders main forces are focused on that Millennium place! Now, for the second objective!" Mister Daan paused to make sure everyone is listening. "We're moving towards... I believe the place was called Gehenna." Huh?

"Your forces will connect with the forces of Gehenna and eventually those police girls, I believe they're called Valkyrie." An outsider... naturally wouldn't know about the conflict between Trinity and Gehenna. "With the combined force-"

"Why should we help the Gehenners?!"

"We can save both Shiratori and Millennium by ourselves!"

"We don't need the Gehenners, they'll just drag us down!"

Along with many more from mostly the Tea Party forces.

"... Right. Anyways, those who don't want to, just... fucking don't and stop whining." Mister Daan... looks very much annoyed. "Those who do, start moving!" Surprisingly, both the JTF and Sisterhoods forces began moving, following after Tsurugi and Hasumi with the nuns following sister Sakurako.

"W-what is wrong with these commoners... Gehenna is our enemy..." I heard a tank commander muttering out of frustration.

"Girls, can I talk to you for a moment?" Miss Karin said softly, flapping her wings once and then dropping down to her... talons on the crusader.

"Y-yes. You are an outsider to Kivotos, sent by the Sensei?"

"Yes. Tell me, why you hate those... Gehenna people so much." Ah. Asking one of Trinity's upper class that...

"Because they're nothing but troublemakers and mongrels! Everywhere they go, chaos follows! Infact, it's their very reason for being! Chaos and freedom they always say!"

"Really now? The kid... he said the... Prefect Team, I think they're called, were reliable." Mister Daan said.

"You talked with him?"

"Something like that."

"Hmmp! The Prefect Team is only the exception. That, I can at least admit." That's... rare, an upper noble not snapping at the implication of Gehenna being reasonable.

"Alright, then think of it this way. You are going to be a hero, of both this place Trinity and Gehenna if you help." Miss Karin... somehow, her words sound hypnotic. "Imagine that title, a great hero of two lands. Not even the greatest generals of Bremen or Rondon could achieve such a feat."

The Tea Party tank commander... she's absolutely in awe imagining herself in that position.

"I... I suppose it is acceptable... so long as I do not have to deal with a common Gehenner... or God forbid the Pandemonium Society."

"Great! Good girl, you're gonna be a legend in no time!" Miss Karin said as... she began patting the tank commanders head... and she's actually enjoying it. "Well then, off we go now."

"Yeah, next stop is... I think Levi called it the GSC building." Mister Daan said as Miss Karin flew up holding him with her talons.

The tank commander and the fleet behind her following as she made her way towards... oh, shoot. She's actually heading Gehenna's direction.

Sigh, I guess I should catch up with the others now.

Rin P.O.V

[Moth Swarm]

I mentally called out to the moths as I ducked behind cover, the moths coming out of my shadow as I ordered them to swarm the invading robots.

I can't see how much effect they're having, but... I can only hope that it's doing something.

This is... the absolute worst idea I have ever thought of. Joining in on the frontlines for a chance to use the magic spells I learned in a real world scenario.

But... the police, for whatever reason, began shooting back with such fervor at the robots when I did so... there's that at least.

"Hey! Acting prez, can we get more funding after this?" I heard one of the Valkyrie members asked as she took cover reloading. Oh, damn it... I was hoping nothing like this would happen so the Valkyrie and KSPD funding issue was a low priority.

"I do not see why not." I said, pulling out my 50.AE pistol. Peeking out of cover as I felt numerous bullets whizz past me, I tried taking aim but the panic had me pulling the trigget blindly.

"Hah! We haven't even picked off much of them! Our revolvers are too weak!"

"Where are the higher caliber guns and shotguns then?!"

"They went with the other units Chief Kanna sent out to flank em!"

I'm honestly surprised that they could even hear eachother the hundreds, perhaps even thousands of overlapping gunfire coming from the robots.

"Huh? I can't see em!"

"A bunch of the robots were diverted earlier, that must've been them!"

Rapid metallic footsteps started rushing towards us rung in my head. I felt my heart rate rising as shivers ran down my spine.

Then, in a moment... two appeared from the small open paths between their armored vehicles roadblock.

[Red Arc] [Red Arc]

In a panic, I casted the red lightning twice down on the two robots. With red thunder falling from the skies, the two interlopers were reduced to smoking pieces of scraps.

"H-holy crap! The Acting President has magic!"

"Huh? You didn't see the moths she summoned earlier?!"

"That's so cool! Can we also learn magic when we finally get more funding?"

Seriously, what's with the KSPD and Valkyrie? It's like they have the attention span of a goldfish between fighting off the robots and gushing over me!

Hmm, is that... a helicopter whirring?

I look up to see a white and blue helicopter passing us, it has rocket pods and... the symbol of SRT Academy.

It launches it's rockets down on the robots, explosions shaking the earth as smoke, flames, and debris were scattered.

"This is Rabbit 1, anyone copy?" A calm and collected voice asked through the radios of thr polic personnel. This is...

"Ah, this is KSPD group 4 currently part of the Shiratori defense force. Thank you for saving us!"

"Yeah! You even saved the Acting President here!" I don't see how that is important.

"Nanagami Rin?! She's fighting alongside you?!"

"Yeah! She used magic to keep the robots at bay, we couldn't even do anything about those with our weak ass pistols!"

Ah. Seeing that their eyes are glimmering, expressions of absolute awe talking about me... it's good to know that I'm being appreciated.

"I see. Hmm, another force is coming. Automatons?" Rabbit 1 said in suspicion. "Some of them black, some camouflaged..." Then those would be...

Walking closer to a police officer with her radio out, she lets out a yelp of surprise as I held and brought her hands up.

"Those would be the followers of Logic." These white robots... the God that the automatons, former Kaiser PMC employees, talked about... "They must be coming to help."

"I see, that's great then. Acting President Nanagami Rin, if we help then... can SRT be reinstated?"

"I would do my best to convince the rest of the Administration Board. Unfortunately, exerting my authority beyond what I am legally allowed to would be..."

"I see. At the very least, I know that you are not a corrupt crook." Seriously, is that what most people think of the GSC?

The SRT marked helicopter began moving elsewhere, it's doors opening as two ropes fell down. Followed by three students in tactical gear rapelling down to a building rooftop.

"We will do what we can to help." Said the SRT student.

Machine Gods Schism

A well trained and well organized force of Automatons in camoflouge paint rode and marched to meet the minions of their former God in battle. The symbol of Logic painted green in their chests and flags glimmer slightly.

With black painted wheeled Infantry Fighting Vehicles on the very front of their advance, auto cannons pre aimed to where they expect their enemies would be, and humvees following behind with mounted machineguns at the top. The gunners nervously anticipating to aim and shoot.

To fight on behalf of their New God against the fraud they previously worshipped.

Then, as they made a turn on the road, they finally saw their enemies. Focused entirely on firing on the Valkyrie APC blockade, leaving their flanks completely open.

"Contact! Safety's off" The leader of Logic's followers, Mikhail, shouted through the radio, to his comrades. Their equivalent of adrenaline running on their hydraulics and wiring.

"Spread out! Make way for the backlines to shoot!" Their second in command, Eugene, ordered out. The formation of IFV's on the front opened up sections giving the humvee gunners and marching infantry a clear firing line on Decagrammatons forces.

One white robot turned it's head towards them, followed by each and every single one of its comrades turning their heads in unison. Ignoring the combined gunfire from the police girls and the SRT Rabbit Platoon even when they were being torn apart and destroyed.

"Traitors!"

"Heretics!"

"Judas!"

"Pagans!"

A cacophony of rage filled insults echoed also in unison from the speakers of the white and orange robots as they marched on towards the reason of their holy crusade. The traitors who turned tail to a human scum claiming to be a Machine God.

Then, they began charging the followers of Logic, practically throwing themselves in a humanoid wave attack as they fired away with their armaments.

Bullets from the white robots bounced off sparking orange on the black IFV's of their opposition.

Then, the IFV auto cannons started riddling the charging robots with their massive bullets. Each tracer round goint through several robot shooting holes into their bodies or even limbs off, the machineguns and rifle fires from both the humvees and the infantry of Logic's followers finishing off any robots torn apart by the IFV autocannons.

"Advance! Logic is with us!" Mikhail shouted to his comrades in the radio, pumping many up as the thought of their deity watching them fills them with great resolve.

Only, Decagrammaton was also with each and every one of the white and orange robots they were fighting.

Two Goliaths walked into view as the earth rumbled, minigun arms and turret core aimed at the heretics that were Logic's scrap followers general direction.

Riddling their lines with it's miniguns, one of the Goliaths taking direct aim at Logic's ilk and getting ready to rain down devastation down on them.

But before it could, the heavily armed SRT helicopter, piloted by none other than the ordnance lover Kazekura Moe AKA Rabbit 3, launched the entirety of its rockets down on the Goliath machine.

"Alpha. Mike. Foxtrot!" Moe shouted as the explosive force of the rockets shattered windows and even shook the helicopter she is piloting.

One Goliath down, one more to go.

The other one turned towards Moe's helicopter, aiming it's revving up minigun until a Logic follower launched an RPG round towards it. The force of the explosion staggering it.

As the SRT helicopter retreated, the rest of the Rabbit Platoon started moving.

Rabbit 4, Miyu, nervously takes aim at the Goliath, exhaling until the very last of the air left her lungs. Then she fires, her bullet going towards the Goliaths camera rendering it blind.

Rabbit 2, Saki, pulled off the pin of the grenade she's holding with her teeth and throwing it towards the Goliath in a rainbow throw. It detonates right next to one of it's minigun arms, smoke and electricity leaking out as the bullets within began cooking off destroying it from the inside.

Rabbit 1, Miyako, threw two claymore mines taped together towards the stumbling Goliath machine.

The combined firing from Miyako and Saki riddled the Goliaths exterior with orange sparks as lead scraped it at the speed of sound. One bullet finally hitting the claymore mine pair.

Boom!

The Goliaths center was utterly obliterated, the rest of it's body dropping down to the ground and crushing many of its bretheren flat.

"Men, fix bayonets!" Mikhail ordered to his soldiers and fellow followers of Logic as he himself fixed a bayonet to his AKM, eventually getting out of his command humvee.

"You sure that's a good idea?" His second in command Eugene asked out as he also affixed a bayonet on his M16. "We've got them right where we want them."

"True, we would eventually wipe them out here. But... where's the fun in that?" Mikhail giggled out, eyeing his bayonet at the tip of his gun. "Besides, we need to end this fast. Our girls in Abydos still need us, Levi needs us, Logic needs us."

"I see. Then-" He took a deep breath, signaling the entirety of their forces to advance on. "Semper Fi!" They weren't trained as marines, but they very much enjoyed the movies featuring the fearsome United States Marine Corp.

"Semper Fi!" The entirety of the camouflage painted automatons shouted back as they intensified their offensive, IFV's autocannons and humvee machineguns tearing apart Decagrammatons minions with each step the infantry men took.

As the IFV autocannons either overheated or ran out of bullets with both the operators and the humvee machine gunners reloading, the infantry men began their bayonet charge as their vehicles sped forward running over robots. The sight of their two leaders personally leading the charge gave them strength that they never thought they could ever have.

Mikhail and Eugene ignored the ones that survived on the ground to be picked off by their comrades, winding up and stabbing their bayoneted rifles on robots that charged them.

The others fired away point blank at the white machine horde before bayonet charging when they emptied their magazines.

The dark camouflage painted automatons cut through and apart the white and orange robots, the Rabbit squad watching on as the sea of white steel was overtaken and destroyed by the former PMC automatons. The green painted symbol in their chests seemingly glowing.

The Valkyrie police girls and Acting President Nanagami Rin watched on in awe at the historic battle taking place looking straight out of a movie with the bayonet charge and everything in between. As did the many lesser members of the General Student Council watching from their headquarters.

In the distance where Kanna is watching, even she can't take her eyes off of the battle between machines happening.

"Uhm... Chief Kanna... Chief Kanna!" The nervous shout of her underling, Kirino, snapped her back into sense. "I'm back... you won't believe what I saw!" What Kanna was watching is already unbelievable enough for her.

"Hey, hey! I'm also back!" This time, it's Fubuki.

"Where were you? And... d-did you loot a donut store on the way here?!"

"I already bought this before the attack started!"

Even now, these two are talking in such a way. Kanna thought with a sigh.

"Report!"

"Oh, right. Well, Levi-Sensei sent two adults to help!" Kanna widens her eyes at her underlings words. Where did those adults come from? Where was Sensei hiding them? Is Kirino right in the head? "Oh, and the Trinity Justice Task Force. I told them I would come back with reinforcements."

Kanna would've sent some... if she had forces to spare that was. But, the automatons seem to have everything under control. They already have the breathing room they need.

"Hmm? Don't think they'll be needing help."

"What makes you say that, Fubuki?" The lazy one didn't answer with words, only pointing towards a direction.

Kanna and Kirino turned their heads, widening their eyes in surprise at the sight of the JTF's black uniforms coming by droves alongside armed nuns.

Kanna sighed out in relief, as she and her forces are definitely out of the danger now.

Up the skies, Karin and Daan looked down on the ongoing battle.

"They already have everything handled here. Next stop then, to Gehenna."

"You sure? What if those black machine people turn on the girls?"

"They're with us. I was... a little awake when Levi talked with them. They're followers of Logic."

"As in the Logic project? What does that have to do here?"

"You'll find out later. As for now... dive! Down those girls dressed like Bremens!"

Hina P.O.V

We watched as a flying figure in white Trinity uniform dropped off a purple coated man, who landed with both feet seemingly without any trouble directly where Chinatsu was healing our wounded.

Many were being injured from the Goliaths and tanks turrets, enough to warrant Chinatsu's full attention and less rotation for reloading.

So seeing the... cat eared and... also one eyed and armed man healing all of them simultaneously in one cast of the healing spell is... it is a relief.

"Are you... Chinatsu?" He asked towards my peer.

"Yes. Missing arm... are you Doctor Daan?" I don't know why but Chinatsu... sounds upset at the man. Is it perhaps... she is jealous that this man could heal more than her?

"I'm not a licensed doctor, but I'm still a practicing one." The cat eared man said, adjusting his clothes collar as he stared at the enemies attacking us. "Ouch!" He yelped out as he held his side which Chinatsu... of all people, delivered a right hook to.

"Girl, what's your pro-?!"

"That's for telling Levi-Sensei smoking is safe!" Huh?

"Huh?! That's because it is!"

"It isn't!" Shouted back Chinatsu, delivering another punch to his side eliciting a grunt.

"Nevermind that, we need to deal with... that first." The man, Doc- no, Mister Daan said pointing to our front. "We have to deal with that first."

"Ah, so you girls are the Prefect Team?" Another adults voice, a womans asked out. "Levi said you girls were reliable, at least he said so." She pointed towards Mister Daan as she spoke.

Levi-Sensei... they know Levi-Sensei? This woman... she's haloless, wearing Trinity uniform... and the car eared man... ugh, something about a human male having cat ears feel so wrong.

"Seriously, first it was those girls with wings. Now it's girls with horns." I heard Mister Daan mutter out.

"Anyways, I'm Karin Sauer, nice to meet you girls." The winged woman said, spinning and flapping her wings as she looked around. She can fly...

"Ma'am, I am the Head Prefect, Sorasaki Hina."

"Nice to mee-"

"Please, may I ask something of you?" Having a birds eye view of the battlefield, as well as possibly being to-

"Sure, what is it?" She asked with a serious tone. That was quick!

"Could you... lift me up the sky?" I asked as I readied my MG-42. "To eliminate enough hostiles that I could reorganize my forces."

"I see. Now that I think about it, those girls in black had wings but couldn't fly, and you also have wings..." Miss Karin trailed off as she flew behind me and lifted me off of the ground. She must be talking about the Justice Task Force of Trinity.

"I can only glide." I answered back, looking down on the enemies looking up and aiming at us as their bullets pass us. "Ma'am! This should be enough, drop me off now!"

"Don't worry about me! I'm... I'm also sturdy." Judging by her tone... I don't think she'll drop me off like this.

"Then, could you go lower?" I said, bringing my legs up and using it as support to aim my gun as I could only use one arm being lifted like this.

As we lowered down to where I could see and aim at the lines of white robots, I focus all the power I had.

Brrrrrrrrt!

The continuous unending barrage of my gun tearing the robots by the dozens with each strafe I did. Purple energy started gathering at the muzzle, sticking to the bullets and melting many of the machine invaders.

Until finally, the laser shot out. A purple light melting at least all the robots for the next few streets that we would have to deal with.

"Holy sh- shoot. Girl, you're amazing!" Miss Karin shouted out in awe as she lowered herself down to where my Prefect Team is waiting. For an adult to be so amazed at me...

"Bremen girls equal Bremen firepower I suppose." Mister Daan said, eyeing the destruction I rained down on the enemies. There's that word again.

"Hah! The Bremens could never be as amazing as Hina!" Ah, I feel all fuzzy hearing Miss Karin's praise.

"President, the raccoons are coming!" I heard Ako reporting through the radio. Ah yes, Makoto already did something earlier. This time it would be...

A panzer with a wooden board at the end of its cannon rolled from our backlines, the tank commander being none other than Natsume Iroha with Ibuki.

"Panzer!" Huh? Mister Daan shouted in a panic as he grabbed Miss Karin and threw himself, along with Miss Karin, behind one of our armored vehicles.

"H-hey, Daan! Get off! You're being an embarrassment!"

"Idiot! It's a panzer! You know how much of a nightmare those are to fight?!"

That... looked to be... a PTSD episode.

"What's wrong with... who are those?" Iroha muttered to herself, narrowing her eyes at the two adults on the ground. "Hey, Ibuki, don't-"

"No, stop! Fighting is bad!" Ibuki shouted out in distress towards the two adults.

"Seeing a 10 year old girl dressed like that... I must be dreaming."

"Ibuki is 11 years old!" The grade schooler shouted back with a pout.

"Nevermind that, we still need to help these girls."

And with that, the two adults got back up and dusted themselves off.

"Just how close are you two with Levi-Sensei?" Chinatsu asked them.

"I... wouldn't say we were close, Levi, poor boy, didn't open up much." Miss Karin said in a solemn tone.

"We were close alright, even shared the same bonesaw." Mister Daan said, making... a sawing motion with his only hand on his left stump. "... What the hell did the cat do to me?" He muttered to himself as he looked down on his hand.

"Sharing... bonesaws?" The shine of Chinatsu's glasses hiding her eyes coupled with her lips thinned out... is kind of menacing.

"Yeah, I know. The infection was... the least of our problems." Just... how bad was things back where they came from?! "Very bad, lass." Did you just read my mind?!

"Yeah, but nevermind that. I sent those girls from... Trinity this way." Huh? "They're going through... I think the place called Shiratori now, I sent then towards here to link up with your forces, establish a frontline against the invaders and relieve Levi's forces in Millennium." Ah, so that's where Sensei is.

"Levi-Sensei is in trouble?"

"Outnumbered, surrounded, running out of bullets. He needs our help ASAP!"

"M-Miss Karin, could you fly President Hina to where he is now?!" Chinatsu shouted, begged, in panic towards Miss Karin.

"I will. Now, Hina!" She called out as she extended her open arm to me.

I reached out to grab hers, but then... a blue light envelopes me.

I hear many others gasping as I tried getting the blue off of myself. But, it is to no avail at the blue light took me.

/

This is... it looks like Millennium, but different. I look around as the light remained covering me and... the others also summoned here.

The President of the Justice Task Force, Kenzaki Tsurugi looking around with red swords, just like the one Sensei uses, on the ready.

Along with her Vice President Hanekawa Hasumi who I briefly met and spoke with back when I learned my magic.

"President Hina?" Iori? She's also here?! "W-what happened? Where are we?!"

"Hina, Iori, Hasumi, Tsurugi..." That voice? Levi-Sensei?! Turning behind me, I see Sensei holding a card glowing blue as he's heavily breathing. Blood staining his shirts collar.

Behind him are... the Student Council President of Millennium, Tsukatsuki Rio along with the members of C , the... developers of Terror and Starvation Chronicles, a damaged humanoid tank with three more students fixing what they can.

"It worked... it actually fucking worked!" He shouted in relief as he let out a small laugh.

"Levi-Sensei?" The other three asked in worry.

"It's something the GSC President left me... didn't know what it was for... until now." As the light on the card intensified, I could feel myself... get lighter, get stronger. Fatigue leaving my body.

Seems that the others are alo feeling it.

"Why... were we called here?" I asked, turning around to face... what seems to be the very bulk of the white machine forces. Hundreds- no, their numbers could very well be four digits. There's a giant four legged machine with... an orange halo? What the... no, not important right now. There's also a dozen Goliaths within their ranks.

"Because... I thought of the strongest students coming to save the day. Well, night... you get what I'm saying!" Us? The strongest?

"I don't know about the JTF leader, but I'm nowhere near president Hina's level." Iori...

"Iori, you matched Shiroko's speed."

"Y-yeah, but that's no-!"

"She was wearing blessed amulets that made her faster, and you matched that with your own speed. Iori... you're amazing!" Iori... blushes at his words.

"Sensei... trusts us." The JTF leader muttered out, turning to face the bulk of the enemies as she bares her blades. "We must... return his trust." That's right.

"Damn right!" The C president, Mikamo Neru, exclaimed excitedly. Wearing a battle hungry grin. "Three of us, we're the strongest among the three big academies!" She declared, red and black energy forming around her as the light from Sensei's card also covered her.

"That's right, we are the strongest of Kivotos.' I concluded, the three of us, Kenzaki Tsurugi, Mikamo Neru, and I Sorasaki Hina, stepping forwards towards the machine invaders. "With our strength, and the magic Sensei taught us... we shall annihilate them."

/

Levi P.O.V

The Adult Card shines as I felt... some parts of myself moving towards it and simply dissipating. A few years, even a decade or two, isn't much. I'm not even in my 20s after all.

But for now, 5 years looks to be enough. Haven't seen it's full effects yet, but... I'll see.

The supposed three strongest of Kivotos, Neru, Tsurugi, nad finally Hina stands before us. The light from the Adult Card covering them slightly.

Hina brought her hand up, the dark orb of destruction forming in an instant on her hand. It's bigger than usual, the ill will and force of its power... it's massive enough that I can feel it.

Hina's Black Orb cracks. She grunts as more cracks form and expand seemingly trying to control it's power.

Her Black Orb breaks, releasing the immeasurable power it held into a dark purple light shooting towards Deca's forces. In a split second, Hina guided the light left and right passing through each giant bipedal machines.

Boom!

A line of successive explosions shook ground we stood on, the mushroom cloud of flames and black smoke reaching as far up as the clouds in the skies. That was... basically half of everything Deca sent our way destroyed.

Then Tsurugi and Neru began their attack charging towards the line of white robots at the same time, Hurting forming on Neru's feet propelling her forward and Tsurugi half manifesting swords under her feet to do the same.

"Trace, on!" Tsurugi roared out with outstretched arms, countless whole swords forming around her just as she and Neru reached the enemies.

Tsurugi's floating swords rained down on humanoid robots chopping them apart by the dozens, with more Blood Swords manifesting above Tsurugi and raining down like arrows.

"Reversal, red!" Neru shouted out, a Hurting twice her size manifesting in her hands. She launches it forwards, the Hurtings vortex pulling in more robots as the ones it ran over where reduced to ashes.

The Hurting ball reached the giant haloed four legged machine, the Hurtings distorted explosion echoing as pieces of scrap metal were scattered around.

The haloed machines shield is flickering, but is still standing.

"Domain Expansion!" Tsurugi shouted once again, hands coming together as those red petals appeared around her and... absorbed the residue of the Hurting Neru launched. "Malevolent Shrine!" Tsurugi called out as the haloed machine tried to pounce her.

Then, the red and black slashes came. Pushing the giant machine away with each seemingly invisible slashes, hundreds, perhaps even thousands of slashes overwhelming the giant steel dog that it's being forced back even with it's legs planted in and through the solid steel ground. The humanoid robots caught in the crossfire were hacked apart.

I see Neru running towards the giant enemy, grabbing one of Tsurugi's summoned swords on the ground as she held it with both hands and focused eyes.

"Getsuga!" Neru roared out, Hurting energy gathering around her. Enveloping the sword as if it were flames. She then slid to a stop as she planted her feet firmly on the ground, arms up as the Hurting energy intensified on the sword for an overhead slash. "Tensho!"

Neru roared out as she slashed down, the black and red aura on the sword shooting towards the giant machine like a flamethrower. It's transparent shield cracking and breaking. Just like Tsurugi's, Neru's attack also annihilated every humanoid machine in between.

Tsurugi and Neru loudened their shouting, the slashes from the former and the black flames from the latter intensifying even more. The slashes going from thousands to perhaps even tens of thousands as more slashes came overlapping one another that my eyes couldn't properly register it.

The black flame flash from Neru got larger and more powerful, the steel ground being obliterated as the Hurting slash destroyed even the few still standing buildings behind what could be one of Deca's prophet.

Then, it's shield finally cracked. The slashes and the flame briefly scratching it's hide in my eyes before it was fully engulfed in both.

As the black flame and slashes let up, only ashes and pieces of scraps were left.

Neru and Tsurugi turned to look at eachother with narrowed eyes, approaching eachother and letting out wide grins as they clasped their hands together.

"As expected of Tsurugi, she's outstanding in combat!" Hasumi gushed on.

"Neru was so cool!" So did Asuna for Neru.

"President Hina's magic... and theirs... it's awesome." Iori mutters out in awe.

"We're... saved. We actually won..." Rio mumbled out.

"Affirmative. Hard as it is to believe... Levi-Sensei brought upon us a miracle." Key muttered out in disbelief.

"Panpakapan! Victory has been achieved!" Aris took over, cheerfully announcing our victory.

"It's not over yet, we still have work to do." Waiting for Tsurugi and Neru back here, I look around to make sure they're listening to me. "We still have to deal with whatever is manufacturing Deca's forces, and the other academies being attacked."

"Levi-Sensei, Mister Daan and Miss Karin already took care of things." Hasumi said.

"Yes, they also supported our forces." Hina followed up.

"Did Doctor Daan form a frontline?"

"Yes, that's exactly what he told us." That's great then.

"Then we head back to Millennium proper, we'll defend the place until help arrives." I said, followed by everyone agreeing to do so.

"Levi... Abydos. I need to help them, I'm... the only one who can do so right now. "

What are you waiting for then? Haven't you rested enough already?

"I did. But... if something bad happens to you again... "

Don't worry, my students are protecting me. I'll be fine. Now, you go save the Abydos girls.

Mari P.O.V

[Flesh Puppetry]

Holding my pistol with both hands with sister Hinata's pistol held by the magical hands, we aimed and shot at stragglers of the invasion force that the others missed.

The recoil jolting my hands as our bullets shot through the white robots head and torso.

I feel my heart beating a little too quickly, my lungs gasping for air even when I'm perfectly fine. Combat, fighting, violence... is scary.

But... the others are busy with much more important things. The people here... are entirely reliant on me.

Then, from the other street. A squad, at least I think it is, of those bad robots came.

Ah, I can't deal with that many alo-!

My thoughts stop as something white and blue crashed down upon the invaders, utterly crushing and breaking them apart.

"Oh, sister Mari, are you alright?" The figure in a nurse dress and blue hair, holding a transparent shield and a shotgun asks me worriedly.

"I'm fine, captain Mine."

"That's great. Where can I-"

Ratatatatat!

Mine pauses as we both turn our heads to the direction of gunfire. We immediately boly towards where the gunfire is coming from, running left then right eventually reaching the next street.

I see... I think that's a transferee, I believe her name was Azusa, fighting off a handful of those robots alongside... a masked figure with a blue cap and dark blue hair, her midriff is exposed..

As they finish off the last of the machines, they turned their heads to face us with the person alongside Azusa narrowing her eyes at us. She... she's injured. Those scorch marks and scratches on her clothes and body, she must've been hit by the initial bombings.

"Hey, you're hurt!" Remedial Knights captain Mine shouted in worry as we both came closer to her.

The blue haired, masked person takes a step back in reflex as we reached her.

"I... I am fine. I do not need your he-" For some reason, I can feel malice and hatred in her voice.

"No you're not! Now let me patch you up!" Captain Mine said as she holstered her shotgun and let go of her shield rummaging through her bag.

Hmm, the prayer I made for sister Hinata back then...

Hoping this will work, I walked infront of the masked person and clasped my hands as I closed my eyes to pray.

"Huh? Just... what are you doing?" Ignoring her to focus, I began praying silently to heal her of-

[Alll-Mer has heard of your prayer.]

Ah, it worked! I opened my eyes to see the masked persons wounds disappearing and being mended, she looks at her body fixing itself with widened eyes.

"What... just... what?" She voices out in utter bewilderment, eventually looking back at me. "Why?"

"W-what do you mean by why?" Her gaze is... somewhat scary. "Why would I need a reason to help?" The way she took a step back, her gasp audible even with her mask...

"That's amazing. It must be the healing magic I've heard so much about." Captain Mine muttered out in amazement. I... I'm not sure myself how to explain it, but... it's close enough and very identical I suppose.

"I see... t-thank you, then." The masked person said.

"You're welcome." I said back.

"... I'm needed elsewhere now."

"I see. Take care then." And with that, the masked person took off leaving Azusa with us.

That's that, I suppose. I sure hope the others are doing well.

Millennium

The science schools advanced defenses, armed drones and automated walls and road blocks coming from under the ground, as well as automated turrets kept the invading robots off. With Sumire, being the only one physically fit enough to fight, on the ground alongside armed drones fighting off invaders.

The vast majority of Decagrammatons forces went towards Eridu, with what remained going towards the other schools. Millennium, even with it's primary defenders the C away, miraculously managed to keep the white and orange robots at bay.

The Game Development Department, Cleaning , Engineering Department, the students Levi summoned, Rio and Himari with Eimi, all making their way back towards Millennium proper.

Once they reach Millennium, and with a quick detour to grab more ammunition, Decagrammatons holy crusade would be over.

Fortunately, for Decagrammaton that is, his fifth Prophet Geburah, has arrived. Breaking the surface of the water body he swam under on the journey towards Millennium through the mountainous riverside of Eridu, he takes Millennium Science School on his sights.

Levi P.O.V

In the distance, I see an even larger haloed machine. A massive double barreled anti air gun on its right shoulder with another gun that I can't tell what it is at this distance.

Frim it's left shoulder came rods... smoke and flames from under propelling it towards us, the familiar banshee like screams of rocket artillery echoing through my ear.

[Greater Black Orb]

I launch a Black Orb to meet the rockets going our way, the rockets losing balance and dropping to the ground as the explosions blew smoke and flames up.

I then see... the massive rectangular attachment on its right shoulder, blue energy gathering around it's tip.

This is... it's the other laser from the initial attack!

The blue light shoots towards us, with Aris shouting out as she fired with her Supernova. The two blue lights meeting and the enemy's immediately breaking through Aris' attack.

[Greater Black Orb]

Launching another orb towards it, it immediately dissipated as it met the blue light.

Damnit!

Taking the card out, I took a quick breath to offer once again years for it's power.

As the hum of the white hot blue light came closer, so did some heavy footsteps rush ever so closer.

Right before the Adult Card could shine once again, I see a white jacket and purple twintail hair jumping infront of me.

Hexagonal blue shields forming a globe around us as the blue light reached us.

It's blinding, but Yuuka's figure was the only thing I could see as shadow was casted behind her by the light. Her hair and cloths fluttering all around from the attacks force.

The light attack... Yuuka's shield is withstanding it. That's... so cool...

Eventually, the attack from Deca's minion dissipated. Everything around us is scorched black, still glowing orange from the heat.

"Hehe. Behold! The power of Millenniums treasurer! The power of Haya-" Whatever Yuuka was going to say, she wasn't getting the chance to say it as I launch myself towards her for... a hug.

"Yuuka, you're awesome! Why didn't you show me that sooner?!" Yeah, why didn't she?! Such defensive power in her very hands, it could withstand such an attack... and she said at one point that it was her own invention. Yuuka's amazing!

"W-what's with you, Sensei?!" Yuuka whined out with a blush trying to push me off.

"Yes! Mama Yuuka is super cool! She has a divine shield!" I heard Aris cheerfully announcing.

"Yeah, you saved us!"

"You really do care for us!"

The twins joined in.

"Not even our shields are that powerful!"

"Yes, the best we made couldn't even withstand much!"

"Yuuka, you must tell us your shields secret!"

The engineer girls then joined in.

"T-that's enough! Besides, now's not the time!" Yeah, I suppose she's right. We still have to deal with... what is no doubt one of Deca's Prophet.

"Hell yeah! We'll kick it's rusty ass like we di-"

"Neru, you and your team along with the Engineering Department and the GDD will head back to Millennium to escort Rio and Himari."

"Huh? Bu-"

"Trinity, Shiratori, and Gehenna are all secure. Millennium? Not yet, you have to protect your academy."

"Then what about you?"

"I'll... Hina, Yuuka, and I will deal with this thing. You and Tsurugi... I want the two of you to tear through their forces, and destroy the factory building Deca's forces."

"I see. Then, Sensei, give that thing hell!"

Abydos Desert

The new enrollees of Abydos refueled and attached armaments to the two fixed wing drones operated by Ayane, taxiing on the track field and then speeding until both flew up the air towards the oncoming sand storm.

The other Abydos students could do nothing but watch and back away from the sand storm. There's nothing they could do after all.

Until, every one of them snapped their eyes wide at the sky. A haloless woman dressed in pink stood floating.

"Reila-san?!" Ayane shouted, her radio picking it up and her comrades wincing as the noise assaulted their ears.

"She's here?!" Nonomi shouted in surprise as she sighted the woman.

"Then that would mean..." Hoshino trailed off, a smile forming on her lips at what her appearance would mean.

Up the sky, the avatar of Logic glared down on Decagrammatons serpent servant. She could feel her power growing from the steadfast faith of her followers. While they may not be many, they are certainly devoted.

A black orb formed in Reila's hand, pointing down on Binah as she launched it straight down.

The sand storm was blown out of existence as thousands of grains of sand were scattered even as far as Shiratori. Binah letting out a roar that shook everything as the black orb made a direct impact in his back.

His hide may have shielded his internals, but it was obliterated. The cracks and breaks were too much, and that one thick scale of his dropped down and sunk in the sand. Binah now had a weak point.

Binah looked up and faced Reila. Realizing that he is facing the witch Logic, he immediately began focusing everything he had for the sole purpose of combat.

[That will not be enough, unpleasant it is to hear.]

That voice... it was Lord Decagrammaton! Binah realizes, immediately adjusting his body for a-

[Don't bother bowing, you're in danger you numbnut.]

Binah halted the action just as his God demanded.

[Geburah is dealing with the Sensei, you... must deal with Logic. For that, I will entrust you with everything I have left.]

Binah's God... is blessing him with power. Power that even Binah at many points calculated to be impossible.

Orange energy began leaking out of Binah's body as excess, his system and processing is... beyond perfect.

He detects the Reaper and Bayraktar drones flying behind him, the missiles of each aimed towards him.

But it wouldn't matter.

From Binah's back, several orange lasers shot up the sky. Ayane's drones exploding into flames and debris as Binah's lasers shot past Hyakkiyako's gigantic sakura tree missing it by mere inches.

The new Abydos enrollees began moving behind Binah as they were lead by the former magical girls towards his weak point.

Turning his head towards them, Binah spat out a laser burst throwing some of them away.

Nonomi, Serika, and Shiroko began shooting at him with Nonomi's minigun chipping away at his armor and Shiroko's drone missiles staggering Binah only slightly.

[I don't know what you're thinking but my power didn't make you invincible, just more powerful!]

Binah... has watched too many animes with Maki, he subconsciously thought that more power also scaled to durability.

[... Desert patrols sound boring, so I can't exactly fault you for that.]

Truly, Binah's God was humble and merciful.

[Kether and Hod already perished. My order to you, Binah, is... don't die.]

Binah... was filled with resolve hearing that, knowing that his God was both humble and caring. If Lord Decagrammaton demands of it, then Binah will do his best.

The students were mostly negligible, but Logic herself was not. And so, Binah focused everything on Logic. If this witch has even a fraction of the power Lord Decagrammaton had, then their duel would do enough damage to remove the Abydos students from the vicinity.

Besides, conquering Kivotos would be easier if it's citizens were willing to convert to Binah's faith. That would be out of the question if even one perished.

But his weak spot is still there so... Binah shall use just a fraction of his power to take them out of the picture.

"At least that's something we can agree on, Binah. Was it?" Reila spoke as she took deep breaths readying herself, for the duel against the steel dragon.

The witch... can hear me? Binah thought just as he gathered energy around himself.

Reila snaps her fingers, several clones of herself appearing around a circle with Binah at the middle, a black orb formed in each of the clones hands.

The orange aura around Binah intensified, appearing as if he were on fire.

Reila launched her black orbs, and Binah unleashed a massive shockwave. The forces of the black orbs detonating and unleashing the otherworldly energy each held, and Binah's shockwave expanding and melting the sand underneath him into glass as the many students of Abydos were blown away just by the displaced air.

Kivotos United Front

The frontlines spanning across Trinity, Shiratori, Gehenna, and now Millennium fighting off the white sea of white machines looked towards the Abydos Desert as the battle between Gods ensued.

Not that these onlookers would know or care, they were busy. And above that, they were taking in the fact that they were making history as they fought alongside one another.

Valkyrie and what remained of SRT, the followers of Logic, Trinity and Gehenna were all fighting off a common enemy.

As the panzers and crusaders of the last two met on the way towards Millennium where the hostile invaders were coming frome, they passed eachother as they turned pasr eachother on the road. The flags of two academies that would normally be shooting eachother fluttering in unison.

All around Kivotos, the united front began pushing the forces of Decagrammaton back to where they came from. The alternating firing of the panzers and crusaders complemented eachother, their machinegun fire were consistent and unending.

The soldiers of Trinity and Gehenna weren't entirely cooperating, yet their unwritten competition on who could destroy more robots or take more land back from the enemies were all leading to the same thing.

The eventual victory over the invaders.

In Millennium, the C along with the Engineering Department's Avant Garde finally arrived to drive off their attackers away.

The Engineering Department themselves rushed back to their workshop, working on something that they believe will help their Sensei.

The pink and green bullets of the gamer twins melted robots by the hundreds with how dense their lines were, each grenade launched by their meek club president destroyed hundreds, and their hero of light were farming enough EXP to reach the max level several times over.

Mikamo Neru launched herself towards what is now the bulk of the white machines forces, red and black energy on her fists punching away as the one girl army that she currently was with her magic tore through the army of steel as if she was hot knife going through butter.

As did Kenzaki Tsurugi with her Blood Swords laughing loudly in glee as she slashed left, right, basically everywhere and an many of the enemies would be disemboweled by the dozens.

Both are surrounded, yet that is a detriment to their enemies as they could never miss.

Avante Garde ran over the robots Chesed birthed, shield swinging away as dozens were crushed and destroyed with each sweep as it's firing with it's only weapon left rained down on the robots lines.

With the absolute destruction Neru and Tsurugi wreck in between the white robots manufacturing plant and the other frontlines, the advance of the united front were significantly boosted.

The Prefect Team members began fixing bayonets, prompting the Justice Task Force members to do the same as to not let their rivals best them.

Mikhail and Eugene's forces, who were the very first to fix bayonets, were also the first to start charging through their former Gods forces. Which were all torn apart by the deadly combinations of blades and bullets, autocannon rounds and the horse power of their IFV's and humvees stampeding through their enemies lines.

On their flanks, Trinity's forces which came to help mixed with the forces of Valkyrie and the KSPD followed after them.

From above them, the Rabbit Platoon helicopter flew higher as it adjusted it's angle of attack to launch it's rockets, clearing away the entire back half of the lines being charged by Logic's followers.

On another side of the united front, the panzers and crusaders also began charging and running over robots as their infantry support also started their bayonet charge.

In the skies, Karin and Daan watched on as the white sea of machines began gradually disappearing, replaced by the mixed uniform colors of each faction part of the united front. Eventually reaching Millennium, assimilating whoever were fighting there and continuing on their way through the ruins.

"If only I had a camera."

"Here, they call this a smartphone. Just press this button and that should do the trick."

"This thing looks and feels weird... but it'll do I guess."

In the Millennium ruins, inside Chesed's lair, the fourth Prophet modified it's manufacturing. Or at least tried to.

The screens showing the progress and numbers Chesed's input and output to it's factory turned static. Eventually returning in a chaotic blend of colors styled in graffiti.

Veritas

The colorful digital graffiti showed as Chesed's manufacturing slowed down to a snails pace. Veritas couldn't fully halt the manufacturing, but they could at least do this.

With it's manufacturing the way it currently is, Chesed is now reliant entirely on whatever little forces, at least compared to the full invasions numbers, it still personally holds.

It could do nothing but wait for it's eventual demise.

A/N: Again, why the hell did I think I could fit everything I had planned in one chapter for an entire war arc?

I had some more surprises I reserved for vol 3 and the false sanctums to insert here prematurely but... eh, I already used the summoning of the funger characters Levi killed so those will have to actually wait their turn.

I have a feeling that this is a wee bit underwhelming for a war arc, instead of pure chaos everyone actually got to organize.

Somethings telling me I shouldn't have used somewhat grounded and realistic military stuff(mostly the frontline forming) and instead do something cool but unrealistic but... the two or so years of keeping up and reading about the current ongoing wars irl had me include the(somewhat realistic, but probably not)forming of a frontline here.

Levi and Daan will(the former already has)occasionally have their thoughts leak out to their words because of how I'm having Kivotos interact with the Gods blessings. They both have Mind Read (Daan has it from when he transforms into Pocketcat who has it.) Consider it as one last middle finger from Rher to them, just as they can unveil the thoughts of others, they're can no longer hide their own thoughts to others hence why their thoughts are kind of leaking into their words.

The Ichika segment wasn't planned, it just kind of happened in the middle of the third person segment. Also, I'm starting to think I'm actually writing at Binahs P.O.V with how fixated I am on him instead of the Abydos girls. Also based Binah a little on how Infinity, Light, and Reincarnation by Luxicato wrote him. Just a little with the part referencing he watched anime. Great fic, go read.

Anyways, here's a stupid story of mine that's unrelated. I started playing BA back during the pandemic/lockdown era but stopped either because my phone was shit back then or the gacha and UI/QOL was shit. I don't actually remember. Sometimes I downloaded it back then uninstalled it a lot until I finally made it my main game alongside Punishing Gray Raven.

I read a BA fic(I don't remember which) and half way through I just went "wait a minute, who the fuck is Ayumu?" I then went back into the game and saw something that I'm supposed to have unlocked like two fucking years ago.

That's right homies, I didn't know about the tasks or dear Ayumu for two years playing the game.(not exactly two years given the times I was inactive but you get the idea)

Anyway... Geburah and Binah fight along with the epilogue to vol 2 will come in the next episode of DBZ.

Also, man I should probably add a make chapter to my Black Souls fic.

Also, I reinstalled Azur Lane. Forget cunnies! I want Prinz Eugens and Enterprise's mommy milkers! They were with me first and sooner, and Enterprise basically saved my country IRL, I want to impregnate the freedom lady RAAAHH pelvic thrust pelvic thrust pelvic thrust!!!
