Part 2
(Im not going to surrender!)
(Then you can die here!)
As soon as Merl-san said that, the Dragonias attacked at once. In the midst of this, Merl-san shouted while operating her terminal.
(I apologize, everyone! It seems that the Dragonias calculated the warp release point and ambushed us! Ive deployed the shields, but brace for impact just in case!)
Merl-san operated a holographic touch panel that appeared and disappeared again at great speed. Then, it seemed that a shield had enveloped the spaceship, and a blue film covered the outside of the window.
As we continued to look out the window, we saw several Dragonia spaceships approaching.
Oh, so thats the Dragonia spaceship. huh?
They look like the dragons of our world, dont they?
Yes, they look like dragons.
I was surprised to see how calm Odis-san, Ruri, and Rill were, even though we were under attack.
Y-youre so calm, arent you?
Well, it wont change the situation that were being attacked even if I make a fuss here. But the number of enemies is less than I expected
As Odis-san said, although we were ambushed, there were only about five Dragonia spaceships in the area that we could confirm. Could it be that the main force was somewhere else?
However, the fact remained that we were only one ship.
Merl-san, what kind of weapons does this ship have?
(Although there is one installed, it is impossible to deal with that number of ships and the enemy ships are designed for space combat, while this ship is designed for transportation, so it will be very difficult to fight a full-scale battle)
No way
In other words, if we dont escape from this bunch of spaceships, were going to be shot down right here.
As I was thinking about what to do, the Dragonia spaceship fired an energy cannon at us, indicating that there was no time for us to think about it!
(Ill avoid it!)
Whoa!
While the spaceship was moving so fast that it almost flipped me over, everyone except me remained calm and composed. T-theyre amazing
Then, Master Usagi, who watched the enemy attack, asked Merl-san, who was frantically operating the spaceship.
(Hey, Merl. Our bodies can adapt to outer space thanks to that protective fluid you just gave us, is that correct?)
(Y-yes!)
(If thats the case, well go outside the ship and fight them off.)
Eehh?
I was surprised by the unexpected words but its true that even if were on the spaceship, we could only escape, so its better for us to intercept them directly huh? Were dealing with spaceships, you know?
Right, I was also dealing with a spaceship when we were attacked by Drade, but this is in space. The situation was different from that time.
Right that seems to be the only way, but its also dangerous to go outside in this situation.
As Iris-san said, the spaceship we were on was exposed to a storm of bombardments, and the ship was not flying in a stable state, probably because of the many complicated evasive maneuvers.
If we jumped out of the spaceship in such a state, we would be blown away.
As I was thinking about this, Odis-san nodded his head.
Fumu then Ill take care of their attack for a while.
Eh?
As expected of Master! Youll do it, wont you?
As expected of Master! Youll do it!
Idiot. You two help me too!
Tsk.
Ruri and Rill nodded reluctantly and immediately moved next to Odis-san, holding out their weapons.
Then!
As magic circles emerged from the palms of their hands, the two circles overlapped and became one.
So, I quickly added some wind magic to propel me forward.
Whoa!
Its not the same as a [Magic Armor], but its very fast.
I wonder if this can be crossed with the lightning attribute of the [Magic Armor]? Im not sure if I can control it if I try it suddenly, but I think its worth a try. It might be a good idea to practice it after we settle things down.
While I was thinking about this, Iris-san, Master Usagi, and Night also used their own methods to get to the Dragonia spaceship.
Iris-san is running through space, using the earth attribute magic to create footholds, while Night and Master Usagi use wind magic on their feet to create a foothold in space and move forward at great speed.
Ciel didnt seem to be using any particular magic, but he was just flapping his wings and going very fast as usual. I wonder how?
When we almost reached the Dragonia spaceships, the enemy seemed to have noticed us, and several energy cannons were pointed at us.
Mm. Im sorry, but were too busy defending the spaceship. Youll have to take care of any attacks coming your way.
Prediction. No problem. Ill shoot them down for you.
And then, Yuti, who was the only one left standing on Merl-sans spaceship, took up her bow and fired an arrow against the bombardment that was being fired at us.
[Meteor Shower].
It was a terrifying series of powerful single-arrow shots called [Death Comet], which were used when the Dragonia aliens had attacked before.
The arrows released at a furious pace were sure to pierce through the Dragonia aliens bombardment and damage the spaceship itself.
(Hmph As expected of a disciple of the Bow Saint. Iris and I wont lose either, but Yuuya, you should do your best too. If you show a disappointing performance, Ill give you even more severe training than before.)
I-Ill do my best!
I was happy to see Yutis growth, but as a result, I had to work hard too.
In the meantime, when we finally reached the Dragonia spaceship, Iris-san made the first move.
[Fallen Sky]!
The slash that was released from below, as if cutting up, accurately slashed through the part of the Dragonia spaceship that looked like an exhaust port on a car.
(Hmph thats good. Then me too [Piercing Leg]!
In the same way, Master Usagi also dexterously used magic to create a foothold and instantly approached the spaceship, and then kicked through the ships hull, creating a huge hole.
It was the first time I had seen the two of them perform such a feat, but they were all so powerful that they could easily destroy a ship several dozen meters in length.
Grrrr Gaaaaa!
Night rushed in while deploying his [Magic Armor] and pierced the ships hull with his body!
I dont know why but I feel like Night is more energetic or stronger than usual Is it only my imagination?
Piiiiiiiiii!
With the usual blue flames on his body, Ciel flew right on top of the Dragonian spaceship and plummeted straight down, piercing its hull.
As everyone destroyed the Dragonia spaceships one by one, I also took out my [World Strike] from the item box to deal with the spaceship in front of me.
It is possible to destroy the spaceship with Sage-sans weapons, such as the [Omni-Sword] and [Absolute Spear], but I chose to use the [World Strike] in order to deal with it without fail.
Besides, since I was dealing with a big target like a spaceship, the [World Strike] would be a good choice.
Haaaaaahhh!
While holding the [World Strike] in my hand, I accelerated at once and swung the [World Strike] as if I were pushing up from right under the spaceship.
(Shit! If this continues contact headquarters immediately.)
At that moment, the spaceship created a shield just like the one on Merl-sans spaceship for a split second, but the [World Strike] easily shattered it all and left it in pieces.
Iris-san and Master Usagi widened their eyes as they witnessed the power of the [World Strike] for the first time.
T-thats what you were using when you were fighting me before, but its such a terrible thing!
(That spaceship was destroyed like a piece of wood I guess its one of the Sages weapons, but thats outrageous)
So, in the end, I relied on the performance of my weapon, but youd have to forgive me for that
When I was feeling that way, I heard Odis-sans voice in my mind again.
I saw something outrageous but thats okay. Id like to hear more about it, but Merl-dono tells you all to come back here right now. Were going to move out from here.
I understand!
As per Odis-sans words, we immediately returned to Merl-sans spaceship, and Merl-san took control of the spaceship and immediately left the area.
