#560. Let’s check.

“I will tell you, Pharaoh.”
turn back time
before leaving Cairo to sabotage the allied forces.
Limon returned to his original form and changed clothes with Hasneti’s help.
“This war cannot be won by normal means.”
“…So you’re trying to entice the sword masters.”
“If you can.”
If the sword masters don’t respond, that’s fine.
All you have to do is unilaterally beat the allies and slow their advance as much as possible.
“If all three of them come to catch me, it’s rather fortunate.”
“That is too dangerous for you.”
“You have to take that risk.”
Billy Gandy Joan of Arc.
Should all three fall out with the Allied task force, Hasneti and the Egyptians can crush them.
Then you can lead the war to your advantage in the future.
Instead, Limon would have to play hide and seek with the three sword masters.
Rather, it was the result Limon wanted in that it could end the war, which would otherwise have to be lost, as quickly as possible.
“The problem is if they act separately.”
“…”
“As I expected, only two of them would probably be chasing me.”
“Is it Geomrang and Swordsman?”
“Yeah, and sword painting will do what he is good at.”
Because I know what it is.
To Hasneti who kept silent.
Limon said quietly.
“It’s going to be a pretty tough fight.”
“Rather than you trying to deal with two sword masters.”
“Swordsmith may not be the strongest of all sword masters, but he is the most invincible sword master.”
Rather, if you fight both the Swordsman and the Swordsman at the same time, you have a small chance of winning.
But the opponent is a sword fighter.
What if ‘what conditions’ are met?
Even Limon did not dare to discuss the odds.
The fact that he attacked Joan of Arc by storming the allied forces instead of Hasneti was because she was the biggest threat in this war.
“So Pharaoh.”
change all clothes
Finally kick the sword.
Having finished preparing to go to the battlefield.
Looking straight at Hasneti, who will surely have to fight more desperately than herself.
Limon laughed.
“cheer up.”
“…”
“Because I believe that a pharaoh will be able to receive my reward.”
* * *
“Princess.”
Command and control room in the basement of the royal palace.
There, Hasneti, who had been sitting in the command seat, lost in thought, opened her eyes.
And asked the nervous Nadia quietly.
“Are you finally here?”
“Yeah, we’re stopping our march on the outskirts of the city right now, and we’re in formation.”
“is it.”
slowly.
Hasneti nodded.
I didn’t even need to check.
From 3D maps full of red dots to dozens of images from drones and surveillance cameras.
The situation boards all around were showing Allied forces arriving on the outskirts of Cairo.
…Including the platinum-haired nun standing tall in the forefront in the blazing sunset light.
‘Is it like this after all?’
Leave Limon in the care of the two priests.
When Hasneti puts on a cold expression as she sees her marching all the way to Cairo with a mobile unit.
Nadia hesitated.
“And the princess has a request for communication… Should I decline it?”
Who requested the communication.
It was because I could tell just by looking at Joan of Arc’s smile while holding the communicator on the other side of the video.
Hasneti, who had been silent, finally spoke.
“To connect.”
So after a while.
A voice echoed through the command room.
[Hello, Red Lizard. How’s my little brother?]
Even though the military is confronting each other.
Hearing Joan of Arc’s gentle and peaceful voice as always, Hasneti spoke coldly.
“Are you invading my territory and asking how my concubine is doing?”
[It sounds like an invasion. I’m just helping activities for peace.]
“Which of the things that cause civil war is peace?”
[Yes, this is a liberation war to save the poor countries suffering from the harsh oppression of the Red Lizard.]
“It’s not the same cause.”
[No, it’s the truth.]
What’s so interesting.
with a light laugh.
Joan of Arc continued.
[I know a king like the Red Lizard.]
[A maniac of warfare that only gives wealth and glory to his own country by waging war, but indiscriminately occupies and oppresses other countries around him.] [So,
Red Lizard .] Defeating it is the way to save countless countries and bring peace to Africa.]
If Hasneti had done good luck.
The vassal states would not have caused such a civil war.
So, all of this is Hasneti’s own gain, and justice lies with them.
Listen to what Joan of Arc said.
she pointed out quietly.
“Because you know that justification is compulsory, you can’t mobilize peacekeepers, and you’re the only ones helping your subjects in the form of individual, arbitrary actions.”
I don’t know if it’s anywhere else.
this is africa.
The reason why the vassal states caused a civil war this time was because they had ambitions for supremacy on the continent and Egypt showed a gap.
Whether you choose or give.
Or tyranny.
that nothing would have changed.
Hearing Hasneti’s calm words, Joan of Arc laughed.
[Looking at you saying that, I guess you have no intention of surrendering?]
“Of course.”
[Is that so…. then there’s nothing I can do about it.]
It seems like he knew it would be like that in the first place.
with a cool acknowledgment.
Joan of Arc continued.
[Let’s see who is right.]
Only the winner is qualified to shout justice.
The justice advocated by the powerless is an empty delusion.
The self who wants to end Egypt’s colonial rule and oppression even by starting a war.
Hasneti is defending her subjects from war in Africa with Egypt’s hegemony.
which of the two is right
Prove it by force.
It was right after Joan of Arc cut off communication after
speaking softly .
“princess! The rebels are marching again!”
Did you really expect to surrender?
Or is it just a formal recommendation to surrender to secure the minimum justification?
Seeing the allied task force, which started moving again as soon as communication was cut off, Nadia put on a very tense expression.
Maybe it’s because after being interrupted by Limon, he increased the speed of his march and repeated forced marches.
There are only 5,000 mobile units remaining.
Most of them are military trucks loaded with soldiers.
It was hard to find that the tanks had almost fallen out, and there were not even 100 armored soldiers wearing reinforced exoskeletons.
At this level, the 1st corps left for the defense of the capital was enough to go beyond blocking and play unilaterally.
Nevertheless, there is one reason why Nadia is nervous.
She had already heard the warning Limon had given Hasneti.
But even she couldn’t help but be surprised by Hasneti’s instructions.
“Activate Icarus.”
“This Icarus?”
“Anyway, useless residual talent is not an opponent.”
“…I will activate the Ikaros system.”
after a little hesitation.
Nadia eventually agreed.
There was no reason for Ikaros to save even one of the Red Dragon Clan’s best secrets in this situation.
The other Red Dragons in the command room were also greatly agitated, but that was only for a moment.
The judgment of the awe-inspiring princess and her aides is absolute.
They soon followed Nadia’s instructions and quickly manipulated the situation board.
“Connecting the system to Apophis Headquarters.”
“Check the evacuation situation. Everyone except for the minimum agents has been introduced.”
“Request for permission to declassify Level 1. OK OK OK.”
“Connected complete system all green.”
“Start power control.”
“Permission for Unlimited Concentration of All Power.”
“System fast charging is currently up to 10% complete. 100 counts to the minimum required of 50%.”
Everyone was busy playing with their hands.
Nadia hurriedly gave instructions.
Even in the midst of busy sounds coming and going.
Hasneti took a cigarette from her bosom, put it in her mouth, and lit it.
That’s when she inhaled a handful of smoke, watching with bloody eyes the image of the army approaching Cairo.
Nadia turned her head.
“Princess is ready.”
As if asking for confirmation at the end.
With a cold face, he passed the gaze of Nadia and other members of the family who all looked back at him.
Hasneti said.
“Open the gun gate.”
* * *
That’s it.
“Oh my goodness?”
Joan of Arc, who led the way to Cairo with the task force, blinked.
The tallest building in Cairo.
This is because the moment the top part splits, a huge pillar suddenly rises out of nowhere.
No it wasn’t a pillar.
too big
too thick
hard.
It just felt like a pillar.
I could tell just by looking at the pillars gradually descending in a horizontal direction that they were not meant to support something.
That’s how the pillars come down.
The entire top of the building creaks and turns.
It was only after he saw that the center of the pillar aimed at him was open.
Joan of Arc finally realized.
“Um, that’s a really big cannon.”
It seems that cannons have gotten really big these days.
Joan of Arc briefly admired the gun barrel, which looked hundreds of times larger than the old cannons she had used on the battlefield during her lifetime.
“I think junior Billy would have really liked it if he had seen it… It’s a pity that we’ll have to destroy it before then.”
But that’s all.
Joan of Arc was not particularly agitated.
No matter how big it is, a cannon is a cannon,
even if it was a 10-ton shell, it was nothing more than a toy to the sword master.
she thought so
Wiing.
“…?”
Until I saw the lights of numerous buildings that used to light up all over Cairo flicker in unison.
It was just the beginning.
Little by little from the outer part.
But clearly.
The flickering buildings lost their light altogether and were dyed in the red glow of the setting sun.
Pot Pot Pot Pababat!
and the light goes out
The more the city is dyed in darkness.
A red light began to flicker inside the huge gun barrel towering above the building.
As if a cannon had sucked up the light across the city.
Allied soldiers, of course.
Even as Joan of Arc stopped and blinked, the cannon’s light grew rapidly.
“…what is that?”
“I think I’ve seen that before.”
“where?”
“You know what’s often shown on TV, even in the Spirit Sentai series, the final boss-level villain uses it as a special move…”
They didn’t know.
Its cannons are not up to date, but on the contrary outdated.
It is also an ancient relic that the Red Dragon clan bought from excavation in North America and managed to restore after investing an astronomical amount of money.
In the first place, the purpose of restoring this cannon itself was at this moment.
…In other words, to prepare for the eventuality of a sword master attacking.
So finally.
The light all over Cairo is gone.
Instead, the moment when the light flowing from the huge cannon brightened not only Cairo but the surroundings.
“Shoot.”
“Fire the Ikaros Cannon!”
Aaaaaaaaagh!
Originally Cairo…
No, it was a decisive battle weapon for the Sword Master against the Red Dragon clan that absorbed all the vast energy of the nuclear fusion reactor that supplied electricity throughout Egypt.
A huge beam of 100 million degrees Celsius emitted from the Icarus Cannon dyed the world red.
