Chapter 31 The Imprisoned Princess

Part 1. 

Edited : Sleeping Knights



Recently, in the old eastern Kshyperuk lands.
Strange rumors were flowing around while Jaroudeku army occupied the land.
Its contents can be described as "The dead reaper with a devil’s face, which stood on a strange looking horse-drawn carriage, had run rampant and hunted down their Silhouette Knights".
At first, most of the soldiers laughed off these rumors.
After the fall of the Kshyperuk kingdom, which was its major threat, there was no more reason for them to be afraid.
They are brave, having absolute confidence in themselves.
That is why they spent time without suspecting anything---and then, they met "It".
[Strengthen the defense line over there!! You will get picked off if you stay separated like that!]
[I--- Impossible, there is no way to defend it... against that reaper...]
The following words were interrupted by a neighing sound which penetrated through the air.
The very nightmare presence appearing before the Tyrantors that tries to hastily regroup its formation.
The irregular sound of horseshoes that split the land keep closing.
Its identity is a giant armored horse-drawn carriage which is being pulled around by twin Tzendrinble, designed as the third special purpose cavalry carriage "Chariot".
Furthermore, the devil masked reaper in question (Ikaruga) can be fully seen on it.
When they found out that the rumored reaper turned out to be nothing more than this very formidable presence, the black knights (Tyrantor) confront it while becoming significantly more upset and bold, because they can't outrun it with just only their legs.

[These waiting to be collect silhouette knight of yours,guys....I will take it!]
It did not state any questions or answers but only left a decisive declaration.
From a certain distance, four sword cannons were visibly setup on both sides of Ikaruga's back.
Red magic bullets gush out and turn into mercilessly explosive flames that fly directly at one of the black knight’s direction.
Followed up by Tzendrinble, it charges and begins to assault the collapsing disarrayed formation.
Receiving such momentum and heavy assault, the bulk of the black knights were sent flying regardless of their shields or armor.
The last remaining black knight, that stubbornly survived its charge, was hit with *Kiryuken (beast slaying blade), which extended from the horse-drawn carriage while running past it, and broke like character "".
*A scythed blade that attached to Greek war chariot
This sword of thick lumped metal is able to take out many shell beasts at one time.
The armored black knight too fell as its prey without exception.
When the ruinous dash of the deadly horse-drawn carriage (chariot) completes its run, only the wreckage of the black knights remain.
The horse drawn carriage, loosening its momentum by performing a large arc turn, is running back.
[Yes! yes!, we were able to stock a lot of "Merchandise" today-ne. let’s head back immediately and use it for the negotiation!]
[Eru-kun, looks like you had a lot fun-ne....]
[Thanks to this guy, I’m able to leap all I want in the world... together with the silhouette knight, Ikaruga.]
After that, the third corps which appeared after them came to recover the wreckage of the black knights.
Later after that, nothing remain behind.
The scene of patrol troops being completely spirited away had been born.
Thus, the followed incidents, which cut off the intelligence relay of black knight corps during its patrol in eastern region, kept happening one after another.
The rumors of the death horse-drawn carriage were further spread, let alone its disappearance, which already planted fear into soldiers on the front line, became more severe.
While these rumors continued to haunt the Jaroudeku army, they still needed some time to realize the truth behind these rumors, about the presence of a formidable enemy.
*
A horse-drawn carriage fully loaded came, while making the sounds of horseshoes echoing along the way.
A bit of an unnaturally heavy load for the average horse-drawn carriage size was causing an attraction.  Moreover, the very wagon was attached with a centaur knight (Tzendrinble).
It was accompanied by the Kardetolle corps, the silhouette knights that acted as its escort.
[Somehow, the rumors are really true....?]
"Baron Modest Letonmaki”, the noble man of old Kshyperuk kingdom is looking wide-eyed at the "Merchandise" that lie up before him.
As it was a matter of course, because the wreckage of silhouette knight that were visibly seen on the wagon---belonged to Tyrantor, a mass product machine of Jaroudeku.
The surprise was not limited to Baron Letonmaki only,
All the forces that the nobles held are all mass produced products of the older generation, Leswant. It can't match the might of the Jaroudeku army's Tyrantor at all.
The battles so far have already proved this unpleasant result.
[How is it, my "Firm's Merchandise”? Don't look away with just this, there still more, you know? ]
Emurys proudly stretched out his chest while showing the results of the "Purchase Contract" of "Silver Phoenix firm".
(honestly, this macho man....)
The truth behind such ridiculous rumors, the masked reaper that has made victims of the Jaroudeku's army, lies before the baron’s eyes.
However, although he was startled and excited at first, his look later became clouded.
[.....Ah, certainly your guys’ power was enough for the request without a doubt, It was a splendid "Merchandise". Our hands were both unexpectedly tied and outdone by the Jaroudeku's army. This result deserves praise, but you know... this is just that. Even we manage to obtain a local victory, a good start, it will only end up with more enemies coming next time.]
Baron Letonmaki spoke in depression while dropping his shoulder.
[We can't win this, no matter how much stronger you guys are, in the end, you guys will only get cornered..... that’s why even you guys, I wonder if you guys can come out without a scratch or not?]
Emurys only took a sip of a cup of tea, wildly in tut-tut manner despite the initiated good mood.
The rumors spread around due to the silver phoenix knight’s continued crushing of the black knights in various places, however they also began to feel the gradual stalemate.
Even they have a high caliber force like the silver phoenix knights, in the end, the entire force when summarized all three corps were still only about 30 machines , they were overwhelming inferior in numbers.
The number are currently enough to "protect the land" but definitely not suitable for act as an attacking force.
[....because of the enemy's might, you already give up?]
[There are various speculations for the weak nobles such as us. To have people who are not even able to protect their own, why are you so against it? Furthermore, the precious royal lineage has already been lost and no longer remains.  It is already too late, this country will never return to its former state.]
Thus the silver phoenix knights’ objective is to work hard to contact the surviving nobles of old Kshyperuk, but they got and unsavory return reply instead. There were many reasons, for example, they lacked a noble who is able to raise a "flag" to carry out a resistance.
[Did Aunt's group already....really?]
[I don't know. It is just as you can hear from their words, they have already fallen into enemy hands. And we can't hope to optimistically, even if they are still alive, they are already beyond help...]
Emurys intercepted by the last words of the baron.
The earlier remark, a thing like that can't be easily accepted for him.
Baron Letonmaki also apologized immediately for his unintentional slip of the tongue.
Martina, Emurys's Aunt, is Fernando's wife, the grand duke who is the highest noble in the eastern region.
He obviously had to accept it as ‘just words’, for now.
After all, although Baron Letonmaki is about to acknowledge the assistance of the silver phoenix firm, to speak any more of this would be prevaricating.
Unlike other nobles similar to him, that only promised to secretly lend a hand, but all refuse to continue the fight.
[...useless bums, no matter how many small fries we take out, nobody wants to partake in it.]
Emurys roared like savage beast as he in a bad mood.
For the nobles to take up such an indecisive attitude can be understood in this situation, furthermore, in addition, the bad mood rises every day with concern for the whereabouts of the royal members.
[Fortunately, we only came to probe, in order to catch a glimpse of the enemy’s power so far. I guess it's time to change our plans soon, need to think for a while, for a "special method" to fight in order to obtain the cooperation from the nobles in addition...]
Eru still held up his arm but there was a feeling that the direction of trouble slightly shifted in his case.
[Is there really nothing we can do in this land?....]
Even full of high enthusiasm Emurys begins to doubt.
The actions of the silver phoenix knights began to show signs of clogging up, the news that changed the entire situation began to unfold.


Part 2. (edited by Isaac Kinney)


The Ancient Kshyperuk principality can be roughly divided into five regions.


Beside the imperial city in the central area, there were "Four-directional territories" respectively in the  North-South-East-West directions.


The king's brother, Archduke "Fernando Nevalez Kshyperuk" had lived in the grand duchy capital of the eastern territory which he governed.


The term "had lived there", past tense, since the Grand duke himself had died during the invasion of Jaroudeku kingdom during the war.  The land had been took over by Fernando's younger brother, "Akatsutei" who succeeded the grand duke along with the right to the throne and bestowed with this land.
*His name can be read as "Aukusti" in western name too.


Since his last name still retained the "Kshyperuk" royal family name, his territory is "Fernando grand duchy" or just called "Eastern Territory" as shorter version.


Even when you see it like this, the archduke rank is only given to someone who is connected to royal lineage.


Inevitably, now, everyone is eliminated and had perished in the invasion.


The east capital dukedom, "Fontanie" is now conquered by Jaroudeku kingdom.  In order to govern the eastern territory, the "East Strategic Point" was made with a portion of Black Jaw Knight's order which was stationed in the city.


*


In the past, the royal castle that served the Archduke, the "Raspedo" Castle, is now taken over by Jaroudeku's army and used as their base.


Raspedo castle has high towers placed in four directions.


The towers of the olden days that had been used to watch the surroundings now have lost their function, as time moved towards the peaceful era.  You could say that they are decorations to the castle.


However, recently one of them was being re-used in a practical way with a completely different purpose.


Inside a room there is a girl with a listless appearance her line of sight constantly wanders.


The name of the girl is Eleonora, who inherits the blood line of the king, a rightful legitimate princess.


Which means this room is being used to "imprison her".  Although the room is decently furnished, it could hardly be called a room to accommodate the royal family.


The girl spent her time gazing at iron bar fitted window and the unusually sturdy door randomly.  As she does not know when her time shall come, she sighed.


Being unable to see a change for a better outcome, this is truly a dull room.


After fallen into the hands of Jaroudeku's army, she was imprisoned here, in Raspedo castle.


This room located on the top floor of one of the towers in Raspedo castle.


With the height of several tens of meters from the ground, the way to get in or leave is only a single long spiral staircase.


The tight security has been arranged around the area to prevent the girl from escaping this place.


Even this place is easy to escape, whether the girl has the resolve to do so is yet another matter.


She continues to pass each day with sighs and silence.


The king who was her father is no longer alive.


With a strong desire to escape her painful feeling reality there is also the fact that she is being isolated from her aunt (Martina) and cousin (Isadora) who were also being imprisoned.


Caught in such a helpless situation, she even began to turn away her eyes from the reality & her future even more.


The girl doesn't know where she can find hope and became sluggish.


One day, something happened.


An event of a visitor who came suddenly which broke the silence in the room,


Only a sound of heavy knocking from the door was made in the room.


For the change that happened too suddenly, she started to tremble in fear.


A maid who was in front of the door has moved toward the next room while concealing her breath.


After she looks several times at the door, the mechanical sound made when a using key resounded.


It can be seen clearly even from far away, a strong omen indicating that someone is about to enter the room.


The owner of the omen walked toward Eleonora who does not try to direct her line of sight at.


[Does the mood around here suit your taste? "Former" Kshyperuk princess.]


The girl, shaking lightly, raised her line of sight, while visibly frightened, at Cristobal.  The supreme commander of Jaroudeku's army, the second prince of Jaroudeku was the entity whom had entered.


[Fuh, are you not a bit too "calm"?]


Initially, when she was imprisoned in this land Eleronora became restless, however, after crying out and lamenting for a while, and her emotions became sluggish, she grew calmer.


[Today, I bring good news to you.  Rejoice, the method of how to "use" you has been decided.  In order to stabilize the Kshyperuk region, when the time has come, your bloodline will be put to use.]


Not hesitating to ignore her reaction, Cristobal told her in a pompous manner while distorting the corner of his mouth.


[You shall be become the wife of the Great I.]


[S...such a thing...how unpleasant...-desu]


At this time Eleonora managed to gather her will and squeeze out her returning words.  Her slender voice came out intent on rejecting him clearly whilst keeping her face down.


However, that much would not disturb Cristobal's smile.


[Do you think you have a choice? I don't think so. Be obedient and accept it.]


Cristobal, while leaning closer, stretched his hand and drew out Eleonora's arm that fled from him reflexively, and whispered to her.


[If you are going to reject that much, then you have no value.  The people that were captured together with you, I may hasten their execution date.]


Cristobal’s sadistic smile reflected on the wide open eyes of Elenora.


[The daughter of grand duke is it?  The continuation of the bloodline those who were once the king's relative.  Her fate depends on your decision.  Will this be enough to motivate you? after all, "she was caught together with her mother".]


[A....ah.... it can't be...]


Leaving the collapsed Eleonora who had lost all her power, Cristobal turned back after he finished his business.


[To show you some mercy, I will give you some time to think. You better have made your mind as soon as possible and tell me.  If it takes too long, I may have change my mind, you know?]


He said it bluntly and promptly exited the room, leaving the stunned Eleonora behind.


A short while later sounds could be made out coming from her lips.


[....I'm sorry... I'm sorry...everyone...I'm sorry, father...!!]


There is nothing that the girl can do, but lie down on the bed, crying and covering her face with her hand.


*


A sound was made again before the room of the imprisoned princess.
It is Cristobal who went down the spiral staircase.


Unintentionally, he leaked a sigh.


It was a disappointed face for someone who going to marry the renowned maiden of the west lands.


[...Seriously, women know only weeping and cry.  Anyway, I liked it.]


[Your highness, If you bring out such a reason like that, there is no way she is going to reject it.]


Cristobal twisted his face in displeasure at the unstoppable remark of Dorote who was outside the room.


[Hm, of course, it is a sure thing. They even dispatched my elder sister in order to reign over Kshyperuk.  To not service this me is unacceptable.  However, you don't need make a fuss over that hindrance, you got that?]


Dorote had been harboring a worried feeling but it seems that the lord himself did not take it seriously, he leaked a relief sigh secretly, as long as he was not blamed.


[By the way, this east territory seem to be quite busy lately, Am I right? Derote.]


Another bitter thought now rose up in Dorote, brought about by Cristobal who changed the topic.


Because it is the topic that he wanted to avoid the most, having no desire for his lord to hear of it.


Even so, he answered innocently.


[Yes, apparently there have been some unexpected troublemakers.  We believe it shall be dealt with sooner or later.]


[Hou, I thought that people in this country all lacked spines, so there is still someone with the nerve left? Oi, ...finally...a worthy prey....]


[You can't , sir!]


A restraining word was shot at Cristobal who's mood was slightly improving while hastening his pace down the stairs.


[Your highness is planning to lead a punitive expedition soon, correct?  Your highness mustn't do this no matter what, because you are our Jaroudeku's army supreme commander.  Please leave such a trivial matter to us; you must fulfill your role.]


Cristobal felt incredibly annoyed and unexpectedly bored immediately after he managed to control himself.


[In that case hurry up and get rid of such a trivial thing!!]


Whilst following Cristobal who hastened his pace, Dorote reverted his disturbed expression to his original composed one as is his usual behavior.


*


After splitting up with Cristobal, Dorote immediately summoned his men.


These subordinates are all members of 2nd prince Cristobal's forces, soldiers who have served under Dorote's command for long time.


[...So that why, I always say we better clean up this mess early, because it is going to unavoidably catch his highness interest.]


With such a long relationship with Dorote and Cristobal, they all know his personality well.


An easy to figure out man, with just one look they could tell his thoughts.


They all unanimously wear a wry smile.


[I need to stay as his highness’ assistant at this time.  As such I leave this matter to you, "Gustav".]


A young man with a tall and thin body stepped out among the men after receiving Dorote's words.


His strange outfit was equipped with various large and small "swords" attached on numerous belts around his hip.  He answered with his fist, a completely self-confident appearance.


[Ou! you can wait, Oldman!  Leave it to us, because we are going to make sure to stop it.]


That’s right; this man was the adopted son of Dorote, “Gustav Marudones”.  Gustav assures his father by hitting his chest.


The adopted father looked at this very reassuring rough appearance with a blank expression while leaking a light laugh at the man.


This interaction between parent and child is a usual event for them.


During such a dangerous calm, they were interrupted by the voice of third party.


[About that task, would you mind to let me take part in it too? is it fine?]


A firm voice suddenly interjected as the appearance of a new figure binds everyone there.


Dorote narrowed his questioning eyes at the person who comes from the darkness despite creating the tension around the area.


[....You are... Sir Hietakannas.... "Leader of the copper fang knights" right?  What in is it for us?]


The person may seem to have an outright suspicious attitude, however, she is Copper fang knight order's grand master, "Gerhild Hietakannas".  Looking around at everyone with a naturally, glossy smile.
ゲルヒルト>Geruhiruto> Gerhild * the heck how can they read "d"? I almost use Gerhilt.


[You guys don't need to be that vigilant, anyone who stands against our Jaroudeku's army are all our enemy equally.  Or do you not like it if I lend a hand?]


[Although borrowing an outsider’s hand, I can only feel that the troubles will increase.  You can take part, however only to help us out, is that clear?]


[Judging from the famous Steel fang knight’s ability, it should be enough already right?  We'll only search for that nasty death reaper for you.]


Dorote tried to gather his thoughts carefully in order to deal with the enemy and to find the purpose of Gerhilt.


The most troublesome problem would be to pinpoint the enemy’s position, so he took her up on the offer.


[Kukukuh, well then, I shall go to dispatch my subordinates, you can expect some good news!]


Gerhilt walk away while leaving odious laughter like an enigmatic snake behind.  Gustav raised his voice against his adopted father with a suspicious air while sending her off with a glance.


[Old man, Is this fine with you?]


[... Although that vixen may seem to be careless, however, her work can be trusted.  What is wrong with it?  We only need to focus on our task. Gustav, as soon as you have received the report, sortie at once.]

Gustav and his subordinates make a salute to Dorote.  After a short while, an airship that carried them departed from Raspedo Castle.


Part 3. (Unedited)

The news had reached Silver Phoenix knights, It was happens during the preparation to sortie out as usual.


[...Is that an reliable information?]


[Yes, It probably some means to held down remnants of Kshyperuk, they too begining to give a positive reply. further more, we already prepare a back up too. just in case.]


Blue Falcon Knight, "Nora Frykberg" answered Eru's question with expressionless face as usual.


At the same time, The Blue Falcon knights came up with a their investigation result after entered the territory of ancient Kshyperuk.


[Understood, the situation has been change...this should be able to convey the young master.]


Eru immediately gathered all of knight members and tell them this important announcement that gonna effect their future.


[By the way, first thing before I want to inform everyone. Young master, there are good news and bad news. do you want to hear it both?]


[Hou, then let hear the good one first?]


Eru answer at came back negligent word while fully cheerful smiling.


[Then, let start off with the good news first, we found the place that appear to held out Martina-san and other royal family who survived.]


[....!! Is it true? Silver leader (Ernesti) !? For real?...really. so they were still alive...!!]

*Emurys already give Eru a nick name...

Emurys look back vigorously and swung up both of his arms as he barking toward to the sky. It not just only him, the wave of joy being widespread between members.


[If you knowing that much then, send out Silver Phoenix knights to rescue them right now!!]


[Please wait. I'm sorry to break you now despite high spirit, but you still need to hear the bad one before that. they are certainly alive....but apparently, the girls were in a little awkward situation.]


Emurys who has the downside about being hasty was restrain by Eru who explain the another information.


He start off with the royal family girl are imprisoned in Raspedo castle, then they gonna married off to Jarodeku's prince.


When he heard it, Emurys's reaction does not betray anyone expectation.


[Oh! I see,  you gonna tell me that while they cause a mess by attack the national land, on the other hand, they now carelessly lay a hand on my cousin princess (Ellen) too? then, let go and brutally murdered that idiot prince!]


Emurys's expression at that time filled with too rough voice and stand out almost like "Shura".

*a carnage fighting being.

His aunt, Martina is not only one that he worry about, there still include the duke princess Isadora, her daughter too. also his acquaintance, Eleonora (Ellen).


By destroyed Kshyperuk kingdom, disturb a hedge between kingdom friendship. this already drive him in shaking rage state.


[This prince is truly idiot! To force a marry on woman, Unforgivable!]


[Yeah! That's right! such an insolent person, let go hang him!]




A angry reply emerge from silver phoenix knights'women group which particularly came from Ady and Helvi.

Because of that,  more 3 member's arm swing up in great spirit.


The surrounding girl also ride a wave and take part in it.


A laid back voice of Eru from somewhere reaching their back who jump out now and now.


[Oh dear, oh dear, please do not be such a hurry. it's better to not move the knights right now.]


[What!!....then how can I'm going to rescue everyone!? don't tell you plan to only waiting and continue to watch it like this!]


Then, Eru respond in order to calm down Emurys's approaching look which really harbor many great worry right now.


[Her royal highness being held captive in Fontanie. that place location right now, is  under the control of east strategic point Jaroudeku's force. in short, it is one of enemy's stronghold.]


[....Cheh, you're right, It's not easy for Silver Phoenix knights to march up there, right?]


Finally, blood up in his head went down after recognize the problem, calm has return to Emurys.


If that was a enemy main base, then the allocation of forces that stationed in such highly value area must be not a joke.


In the past, Silver Phoenix knights gained victory, mainly rely on mobility of Tzendrinble and powerful silhouette knight like Ikaruga and Gordesleo. 


But if the battlefield reduce to only one single horseman size then It would be overwhelming unfavorable fight for Silver Phoenix knight which accustomed to attack side.


[To give a example in word, It very noticeable if we move the entire knights. in the worst case, there also a risk that they will thrown out the princess group into the fray. after all, they did not only held out 1 person there. It will become a very difficult situation if we handle the hostage poorly. in other word, we need to rescue all of royal family who got imprisoned there before the enemy notice it.]


Emurys's eyebrows begin to wrinkle again.


He glad to know the location that imprisoned the royal family but there is no change the fact that they still in the hands of the enemy.


Helvi and Ady too, were put up an arm with chagrined look on their face.


[If that the case, while our knights fighting in this area, let's go steal only the royal members.]


[Correct, I also thought the same thing. by take advantage of the current state. given that we still don't have any casualties against Jarodeku's army. but there are a chance that they will increase more force in future in order to defeat our knights. that will be their attention. the main force of knight order is usually a silhouette knight, but we have another force as well... I will use silhouette gear.]


Unaware of Eru's expression, It was the same as child who came up with mischief idea. or it just look like a child who boast his favorite toy?


[While Enemy's eye focus on our main force knights, we sortie  an infiltrate troop with the latest combat type silhouette gear, let go return freedom to the imprisoned princesses shall we?...Batson! now is the time for "Shadow Rat"(Covert type silhouette gear) come into play!]


[Oh, Ou!? you mean that thing right? if  it that thing then it gonna be fine for sure!]


The panic Batson who under attack with with suddenly topic, confirmed it while look behind.


There was a different silhouette gear than the standard Motor Lift version, "Motor Ru-beet" park on that place. 




Next to it, Blue Falcon knight members nodded powerfully at Nora.

Finally, Emurys who keep listen to the talking Eru patiently spewing a word.

[Tsk, fuh fuh, fuh ha ha, ha hah ha hah ! Silver leader... you really are, kuh haha, Yosh! I like it! this plan! ku ku ku, In short, all of their effort gonna be wasted,  right!?]

While Emurys who showed his wit, he began to move around everyone.

Ady move gently next to Batson, asked him.

[Hey, pigeon-kun, about thing that Eru-kun mentioned, It possible that I able to use it too-right?]


[Since we talk about Eru-kun's work then it possible. may be, it really unlike you to ask.]


While Ady and Batson whispered and nodded at each other, the plan discussion progress swiftly to the summary.


As a leader, Eru distribute the strategy outline that he plotted to the members.


[The rescue team will be lead by me. also Ady and Chid, please participate in this mission too.]


[Yuck!? We too?]


Suddenly got called out, not only Ady but Chid too was full of surprise.


[If it were you two people, then you guys definitely able to pilot the Motor Ru-beet for sure, it was the same as piloting Tzendrinble. I need a minimum manpower to help transport and infiltrate.]


[I see...roger that, Eru-kun! let do our best and save the princess!]


[well, I guess it something like that.]


Ady swing up her fist forcefully than usual while Chid shrugged his shoulder and look down.


At that time, Emurys who listen at conversation quietly finally grab Eru head swiftly.


[Hey, Ernesti, I too will join the rescue team. I already giving a lot of thought and came to the conclusion. anyway, let do it.]

translator note : Seriously, you can think? I don't believed it. :D

Shaking his head vigorously to escape Emurys's grab, Eru can only sigh.


Emurys is hardly suitable for this conceal mission but anymore deny would be useless anyway.


[It fine you want to join the rescue team then...now, Edgar-san, Dee-san and Helvi-san, I give the important mission at all members of Silver Phoenix knights in addition.]


The squad captains who gathered in front of their grand master correct their posture.


They already know how story gonna turn out, their corps will become a bait to attract enemy attention.


A light of determination show on  their facial expression.


In that imminent, Eru take out a bunch of paper from nowhere.


[In order to have everyone of Kshyperuk join the fight, This is a blueprint that I thought, a draft to strengthening their Leswant.]

[Eh!? just when do you did it?...Should I say as expected of you?]


While the squad captains surprise, they received a bundle of paper that look like important one.


Eru tightening his facial expression after being proudly attitude.


[With this in your hand, I want you to use it to wool every noble around the country. while we, the rescue team will safely rescue the royal, with that way, the king of this country will return. The battle from now on, It will be not only us who fight, they too, need to standing confront it together. this is a means for that.] 

*bait and hook :D

A bundles of paper that hold in the hand of captains were feel more heavy after hearing such a line. 


Another means for recapture strategy of Eru, the blueprint is now become a major key that gonna influence the future of this land.


[...seriously, you surely say it like something easy.]


[But, interesting. Anyway, I'm good when come to protect something. this blueprint, I will make sure to keep it safe and delivered it. I definitely let it blown off right on their face, those guy.]


The rest of members also happily swing up their arm after Edgar.


beside the rescue team,  the destination of other two squads already been decided.


Silver Phoenix knights begin to move out fast like a storm but quietly.


[Fuhfuhfuh, a princess rescue strategy is it!? it sound good somehow right....Ahh but, for Eru as the one who come to rescue her, I'm feel a little bit jealous...]


[Stop talking non-sense, we're going because it's an important role, let go prepare our self quickly.]


During knights start moving, Chid casually grab Ady's collar who still in her's world. dragged, and leaving just like that.


Part 4. (Unedited)


On top of the empty vast sky in the east territory that draw out such gentle pattern, there was a black painted ship figure.


Sail with wind, advance thru the sky sedately.


Two "Airship", a secret weapons of Jaroudeku's army.


These ship leave Fontanie and march to the east, lead by the knight, Gustav.


[Ou ou, take it more seriouly, don't sleep too much on the precious airship.]


The men look back at Gustav who speak while sitting on captain seat in good mood.


[Don't you think it is a bit over kill? the opponent is just merely formidable bandit.]


To mobilize this much of force against Kshyperuk's army, A hidden meaning word of his men.


Moreover, by no means, It not only his thought since no one gonna belive that an opponent which able match the entire Jaroudeku's army fleet really exist.


Gustav which heard that slightly smiling in amazed, he speak with a light tone immediately.


[In the end, just what is that reaper? we only know that it's enemy, but just how did it disappear so fast! with our superior speed of airship here, we will strike after have it strand out! how was it? perfect right? If we do not deal with it quickly or take too much time, It definitely create a problem to Oldman.]


[Haha, that also right. after all, our real enemy is his highness patience itself. when compare to Kshyperuk's coward, he definitely much more worst one.]


While seeing off a man of subordinate who walk away while making people laugh, Gustav sit cross leg  and elbow slovenly on captain seat.


[...Ah...ahhh. this is a missing feeling that I yern so far, such a poor straight dangerous one. rumors of reaper-san is noting but a rumor, Hey, I feel really awkward. after all, we're the one who gonna killed it.]


While he seem to be understand the problem, it should be noted that he was a fearless and full of self confidence.


The ship carrying this kind of person while heading straight to east.


Part 5. (Unedited)

It begins after the silhouette gear troops which led by Ernesti head out in order to rescue the princess for a while.

Silver Phoenix knight order which consists of 3 squads, now, only the first squad remain behind.

They were busy run around the east land of ancient Kshyperuk principality. 

Tzendrinble from the third squad split a team to delivered the other two squads, they are the first squad, same the second squad in tow.

The main force purpose is to tell the noble in various place about "A strengthening Leswant draft", and seek their cooperation.

For that purpose, they split up and scatter around for the best efficiency, but the circumstances did not go well and they only achieved a little bit.

Jaroudeku's army began to take serious measures to search and hunt down their Grandmaster(Ernesti)'s silhouette knight.

Up until now, silhouette knight that assigned to their platoon usually strictly limited to 3 machines or less. 

But now it escalates to 10 machines at the minimum, and they began to move several platoons at the same time.

On the contrary, this really a dangerous situation for Silver Phoenix knights which now missing its strongest card, the demon(Ikaruga).

[Quite something that does not allow us to take it lightly.]

[That right, rather being careless, we better keep vigilant like this.]

As a result, the main force tries to avoid combat situation as much as possible.

Fortunately, thank Jaroudeku's army began to gather and concentrate their war potential in one place, the chance of contact reduce greatly.

On the contrary,

Once they were discovered, their chance of escape also zero.

The presence of their variant knight's teams now are no longer a rumor, but fully appear with an entity.
(TN: I guess in the past battle, they put some camouflage or robe on their knight to conceal their characteristic.)

[At any rate, giving a situation, with Tzendrinble's leg as our advantage. we should be able to manage it quickly before we come across an enemy.]

By horseback which pulling the second squad, Dietrich leaks a murmur.

Unfortunately, his wish did not come true.

Many numbers of the Tzendrinble unit which pull the wagon are stand out too much.

It was impossible to hide their full figure presence, the detected problem can happen during any time.

[....contact from "The around deer". We discovered  "The gathering horse". release a "Hawk", continue to hunt...]

In the forest along the highway, The giant black knight lurking in the gloom.

It also erected slightly sound contrary to its massive size, Almost like a ghost presence, the centaur knights which ran on the highway would never notice its presence in the end.

Before long, the black knight giant begins to move gently, several soldiers ran away on horseback.

[...So It finally came out, I was really reluctant about this. It quite a problem in itself to taking it from that "Vixen'deed".]

Gustav stroking his chin on the cormorant Airship (Levitate ship), and ahead of his line of sight,

The number of abnormalities were running on the road through the woods.

[So that is the "reaper cavalry group". It looking too much friendly, somehow, It look like something mix with a horse! well, Let use it as a material to sharpen our's rust "Sword".]

It seems that the existence of variants horse-drawn carriage group that runs on the ground exceeded far beyond his expectation who also knew as a fearless man.

As something on the level to be reckoned and challenge his gut, he retakes his wit immediately and starts issue his subordinates a command while got slightly upset.

While Gustav chasing the second squad of Silver Phoenix knight on the highway thru the sky.

At the same time, the second squad also aware the presence of flying ship looming on the empty sky from their side.

[What is that thing? Am I dreaming? A ship...is soaring thru the sky!]

[This is too much indescribable...to think that there was another person than our's Grandmaster, The person who build an object that out of common sense exist. as expected of west land, such a windfall.]

[Dietrich, This not the to impress there too much! What are you going to do now about that?]

The rest member of the second squad said that with intense, upset tone at the first look.

For speaking, they who do not know much about a magical beast that flies in the sky now witness an "Airship"(Levitate ship) that appeared for the first time for military use with air superiority power in this world.

Its presence is very confusing them.

Until now, due to the airship was treat as a valuable asset for Jaroudeku's army, it still not has been dispatched to the end of the east so far.

He is now in a really awkward situation.

[Truly, it really looks like a ship itself. Fuumu, that is... a sail, right? It's drawn out a Jaroudeku kingdom nation flag. Which means it's enemy, moreover, It chasing us thru the sky, Shall we greet them by shooting it down? since It seems to be faster than our leg here.]

Even they met an unprecedented flight weapons, they get over this matter quickly, It could not say because they are Silver Phoenix knights only but they already passed the day of earth shattered like it was a normal everyday event and get used to it in many bad ways.
(TN: Since the head is already weird one, I guess it can't help that the entire knight order also mutated into weird direction too right? :D)

[Each unit, prepare to take action! begin deployment for "Add on shell"(Outer crust)!]

Jump on Dietrich's instruction, each machine begin to expand the armor plate that had been subsided to the wagon.

Add on shell is a platform structure of war horse-drawn carriage(Chariot) which equipped for solely combat purpose, a simple defense mechanism that added on the transport wagon.

A platform for an attack method that uses silhouette knight as a "Load".

In order to reduce the necessary chariot's function.
TN: think "Add on shell" as addition platform for hold silhouette knight while they doing a high-speed combat. by using silhouette knight weapon as a turret to defense the cargo wagon, with that way, they don't need to waste time to develop another magic turret function of the wagon.

There, on clear area top of the wagon, Kardetolle holding up its back weapons while glared at the sky.

Take its position, aim and lock their reticle sight to the airship which is a black point reflected on their holo-monitor.

[...Victory to the first strike! Begin the attack!!]

The second squad that had been waiting while measuring the distance, under one command from their's captain(Dietrich), began their fiercely direct attack at the approaching airship.

The approaching airship that hurried drops its attitude face the suddenly magical bullet from the ground.

For they who were too much arrogance and truly overlooking the opponent from high ground, The airship did not expect a sudden attack.

[Wow, look like the airship still intact? Here's also return the favor, prepare the "Catapult"! contact the other ship, use pincer attack!]

Only one person, Gustav who did not get struck by the attack and calm down his subordinates.

The calm from the commander was transmitted to the subordinates.

While they are still panic a little bit, they shout a message of instruction to the speaking tube.

A wooden platform appears from the inside of narrow window which immediately opens from airship's side, and take aim at the cloud of dust that running on the highway.

At the same time, the bow engine starts to make a fine-tuned sound.

The airship begins to loosen its speed.

While dodging the incoming magical bullet, Two airship vessels began to run in the parallel side and attain the position to sandwich the Silver Phoenix knights.

[This is too sweet to aim, loose it!]

A stone bullet jumps out one after another from small window along with a dull sound.

"Catapult" is tower placement that has a small sling on the airship.

It is a simple spring load mechanism that launches a stone bullet. 
TN: At first, I thought it was a stone cannon because Catapult usually uses to throw a large rock but writer use 弾 instead of 砲 , then would mean it not a large rock that we saw in the mid age war movie, the scale should be much smaller and less destruction power.

Originally, It does not hold a power to the extent that able to stop the silhouette knight.

However, It would be another story if use by the flying airship.

After all, flying airship boast the absolute advantage of the potential energy as addition factor.

Even a small powerless stone bullet, may have big destruction power by the time it reaches the ground.

Now, the flying stone bullet begins to cobble the road on the ground together with a roaring sound.

After the return attack, which is just a flying stone bullets came one after another, the Tzendrinble knight runners raise their panic voice.

[This is bad! Second squad! the road already in ruined, if we keep forward at this speed, We may end up trip somewhere!]

[It surely happen-ne... Each unit of the third squad, disconnect the wagon. After become free, enter to the forest, escape from the sling range!]

A rapid breaking sound occurred on the highway.

The detached wagon began to decelerate, sprinkled a furious cloud of dust and spark. 

The second squad stand firms their machine, withstand the inertia that caused by sudden braking.

The winding up a cloud of dust which un-intended happen has played the role of smokescreen, cover and conceal their figure from flying airship.

[Haha! try to act like insolent one?, you deadly wrong!  all knights, power up! get under the ship, clad your "sword"!]

Gustav speaking while jump out of the bridge and head to the hanger in the opposite direction, his men followed after him hastily.

When the ship's huge hull come closer to the land surface, in the meantime, Air wave of swirling wind blow away a cloud of dust on the highway.

Its rapid mobility moving appearance which makes an illusion that the ship almost fall.

Decelerate by using It sails which received the wind as driving force as an air brake, It lowered the height and advanced thru the addition trees and use it as a friction force.

The next moment, the bottom armor of flying airship open up in a big gap.

From the open hole, Black giant, Tyrantor which has been lifting by a crane come out one by one.

Black knights that landed on the highway cause a vibration and sound while its steel armor with a heavyweight scraping the land.

During deployment of black knights, The airship did not stop moving.

It took out the skim high trees along the highway with its crane and fly away while raising altitude and speed.

An airship is certainly a powerful weapon but, that only truth when it flies in the sky.

For the sake to deploy silhouette knight, it needs to drop its speed and lower the altitude which really creates a vulnerable moment.

Therefore, for an airship to reduce its speed and descent, and furthermore, performing the acrobatic move to drop silhouette knight.

Should say that the skill of this airship's crew was too unreasonable and deserve a praise.

The bulky Tyrantor now line up on the highway.

In order to block the path of Silver Phoenix knight's second squad, four platoons, lined up with a total number of 12 machines.

[Just when you thinking about the attack only came from Airship and then, Next one after that is black one came out, Our enemy really hurry-ne, the opponent is a familiar Silhouette knight. now, our second squad surely in trouble.]

While raising Guyaledy from the wagon, Dietrich grumbled.
TN: グウエラリンデ >guuerarinde>Guyaledy , maybe, not sure , since it an improve version of Dietrich's Guyale.

Grasp the surrounding situation in his machine, divulge and sigh involuntarily.

The second squad and Tyrantor corp which now take a row-wall formation tactic are now head-on glare at each other.

Tyrantor which have the number closing the distance slowly.

Engulf its body with heavy plate plus a masterpiece output inside, when  to combine it together really give them an intimidate pressure.

[I really want to avoid combat as much as possible but...look like a fire just fall on me, need to extinguish it first-ne.]

Dietrich drew a sword.

Magic Power Converter (Ether reactor) increase in power, pouring and building up magic power in the frame before the fight.

In the horizontal, Kardetollet which had been holding a weapon also emerge a considered red cross pattern on its frame.

[Plus, Edgar not here either, actually,  just where the hell is he right now?  This is really unpleasant, It was you guys that using the stolen technology from us who were overwrought arrogance one...]

Dietrich's depression strongly stirrup.

Guyaledy storing up energy that flexed its body.

Crystal tissue is drawn aside like a bowstring, the force accumulates impatiently and eagerly waiting for explosion timing.

[The price for your sin really expensive, you know?]

While Guyaledy vigorously gouges the land, it fledgling.

This is its attack method with explosion boost like an illusion.

The preparation process completes without delay.

The second squad's Kardetolle also imitate it,  this is their team's specialized signature.

Their alias name, "The mix assault middle squad". 

The name did not come due to a standoff hobby but came from their attack method which really the main core.

[Fuh, To head on crashing with this Tyrantor from the front. know your place!]

The knight runner gloated in the cockpit of the black knight.

For Tyrantor which boast its strong output and defensive power.

The battle from the front is just what they want.

In fact,  They would emerge victorious even face a group of Leswant as the opponent by itself alone.

They imagined that the result would never change even the opponent is this "Grim reaper troops"

Tyrantor is also bracing itself from the front against thrust attack of Kardetolle.

Likewise, it also greets with an attack from the front too.

The armor that attached to the arm of the general machine equivalent to a shield with endurance.

A counter attack to deal with the attack already prepared

A metal mass collided with a momentum, resound a dull one.

Shouting a friction sound and spark scene.

There, Tyrantor's knight runner was taken by the unexpected thing that happens.

Kardetolle which really look like a general machine on the outside, but in fact, it was a state of the art machine that using strand crystal tissue and output that beyond its size.

The blow from its large sword squashed Tyrantor's arm armor part.

Furthermore, It even crushed the crystal tissue joint of under armor.

[Hah, impossible, against Tyrantor's armor!? This thing is completely different from Leswant!]

[Otto!, To survive the sword blow, such a unbelievable one, look like it really thick armor!]

Sprinkled a piece of crystal tissue, Tyrantor doddering back as it tries to get away from Kardetolle.

Witness Tyrantor heavy armor for the first time which really something beyond their expectation.

Originally, if the opponent is a duel-class monster, his sword would have the power to buried it easily.

[No matter how hard armor it is, there no way that it gonna be thicker than "Behemoth" armor!]

Both forces now already entangled battlefield in half way.

Dietrich also initiated full frontal assaulted.

He targets two Tyrantors that looming on the front.

For Jaroudeku's army that has number advantage, he could not be allowed not to take at least two machines of the black knight at the same time.

How far that the squad captain role he intends need to play?

He smiled down a sarcastic one.

Not hesitate at reckless action behavior.

He starts up, "Magius jet thruster" which integral mounted on the armor of shoulder and hip--- a "Secret Weapon" of Guyaledy

Only Guyaledy that equipped the same thruster equipment as Ikaruga, but have lower output and only use accelerate to the front.

Even so, it already enough a powerful trump card.

With dull, muffled explosion and injection sound, Guyaledy slightly extrudes from its original position.

When to complete its charge.

The knight runners of Tyrantor who misread the moving speed of the scarlet knight missed his chance for intercept due to sudden acceleration.

It may be slowing down before attacking.

Although they also wary that unexpected acceleration blaze as some kind of feint. 

The two machine moving its leg, while thinking "How can it accelerate freely?".

With obtained an overwhelming speed, Guyaledy runs up with the twin swords, took advantage of the imaginary first hand, wielded a sword and aiming at the head of Tyrantor.

Tyrantor lost its vision was in the unbearable state, It can't help but try to rotate itself for defense. and aimed blindly .

As expected of Dietrich, he slashing the two machines at its arm which covered with armor. 

Next moment, Guyaledy start up its back weapon "Blade on the wind"(Kamasa), firing dislocate air bullet aiming at the Tyrantor as its current state.

While the heavy armor of Tyrantor which took a hit from close range escape damage, the armored arm got squashed and a shard of crystal scatter.

They were outwitted, and if it keeps up like this, they gonna be defeat.

While clenching in anger, Tyrantor's knight runner launch itself a forcible counterattack from the collapsed posture.

Even the power may be decreased, a machine that withstand a blow from the heavy-weight Tyrantor does not exist.

But Dietrich deal with it splendidly.

Guyaledy uses the burst of the air pressure itself  alone, surpass more outside its originally speed range and thrust up, and withstand the counter blow.

The knight runner only echoing in anger when his heavy blow momentum stopped, he was thrown down on the ground. 

Fallen on the cobbled road and stirred up the dust.

Before the strength of Tyrantor, it really hard to utilized the open  gap that happens immediately after its attack.

But before The crimson Knight, that gap is too fatal one.

Immediately after that, a sound echoing with any lightning flickered, wrong, it's the twin sword with lightning convincing speed that had been pulling out as it deceit one eyes.

The Tyrantor's knight runner got startled and try to fall back before such a god killing move.

An object dancing in the air fell on the ground with a thud sound.

A huge arm that still holding a heavy sword, his Tyrantor was bisected, from the arm to the elbow.

He can't help but scream from behind, a frightened voice.

He hurried up to pull out the battle mace with the remaining left arm.

A sweet bleeding in his hand grip at the control stick, his heart beating too fast, a violently beat.

The arm of Tyrantor is covered in thick armor without any gap, to display a vivid slash to that extent , this is not something that you can do with just an extraordinary skill.

Until now, he always thought Tyrantor possess an invisible armor,

But now, he begins to see an appearance of the unreliable scarecrow dramatically.

[Just hurry up and get back! It's impossible for you.  It's our turn, this "Sword" user!!]
TN: he use ore-tachi for call himself and his silhouette knight together.

Before Guyaledy can give a pursuit, A young lively male voice split along with jet black knight made an entrance and intervene it.

An another machine that did not lurk in the back of the black iron wall.

Its intervene attack force Guyaledy to fall back.

It begins to glare unpleasantly along with its sight line,

As a result, there was a machine with the appearance different from the Tyrantor stood there.

The enemy has the height of standard silhouette knight, also look odder machine when took a glance at it.

But Dietrich looks at such quirky features of the machine more than that.

[W...what is that? Is that a "Sword"? wearing that many swords, what are you planning to do?]

Right, it is a "Sword" , carry many swords,  a standard equipment for Silhouette knight, also equipped a little erratic equipment in front of the machine.

At the head, at the body, nothing present in the shoulder, at the arm, surround the waist, of course in the leg too, the whole body was full clad with various large and small sword.

Even call that "Full Sword" would not be a wrong in the summary,

A  very strange silhouette knight stood there.

Dietrich becomes instinctively speechless despite during the fight. 

[Hmm? How are you gonna handle this? It obviously right? the side that has more sword is stronger, The strongest "Sword",  It's naturally right? ]

[Um, I see, you are a fool is it?]

[You too also have a sword but it clearly not the enough as this "Swordsman" level, not my enemy!!]

With said,  Silhouette knight which wearing a large amount of sword---"Swordsman" attack Guyaledy.
TN: At first, I did not realize that it was a Gustav silhouette knight's name, pretty sure that he doesn't have naming sense.

Dietrich returns his concentration and meet the attack with the wielding twin sword.

[Etto, this is quite a senseless joke, I want to go sleep! The response is rip-off too much, maybe!!]

The crimson knight's twin sword clashed with the black knight sword.

Though the repeat of return slashing increase by a breath moment. 

Both knight machines run at a dizzying pace.

They never stop their leg, aimed for moment to use powerful blow  and try to seize the favorable position than the opponent.

The way of the fight of this two machines is similar in a sense.

They both give priority on the attack to extreme, in a word, they sharpening a consecutive attack type like a storm.

The momentum occurred violently, even the second squad are hesitated to intervene.

[This is rampage too much!]

Kardetolle can't forcibly get close and butt-in before a fiercely sword style battle.

Swordsman put a long sword away in quickness and begin to absorb magic, pulling out the dagger  from before, look at the opponent and throwing it.

Despite that, the dagger flies with a formidable accuracy and hit the Kardetolle.

[Oi Oi, Do not interfere! Our great fighting restrict to a guy with sword only! You hear me?]

At that time,  Swordsman left out an opening and Guyaledy did not miss that chance, release "Blade of the wind".

Swordsman dodging a sharp magic bullet in blade form but take a graze damage.

It goes around Guyaledy's side, turning into tornado movement, took up its sword in a single moment and oppose Guyaledy's sword, causing a spark between them.

When you think about it,

To dodge Guyaledy's counterattack plus together with Swordsman's dagger which threw over there, manage to do circle movement while entangling with long sword of Guyaledy and continue to dance around Dietrich's machine in the instant and stopped the sword which aimed at its vital position.

For opponents such as Swordsman who was holding a long sword and short sword , everything happens less than a minute,

The sword dancing resumed between close combat of both machines.

[Otto, forgive me, our "Sword" dance still not over  yet,right? you have quite a "sword", red one!]

[You are really troublesome! trouble but very pleasant too!]

While the red knight & black knight rampage around in the middle of the battlefield, the swordplay continues to retaliate intensively.

Utilize a short gap timing, Swordsman aimed and throwing at Kardetolle around him.

The dagger flying around in  the midst of melee fight is greatly disturb the concentration of Kardetolle, killing the second squad momentum precisely.

[Keep it up like Gustav! let push them up like this, That the way black knight(Tyrantor) fight!]

While clashing, the black knight morale was renewed and ride the momentum that created by Swordsman.

For Kardetolle who possess the equal power, the enemy heavy armor is a threat.

[Heh, to get entangled with this sword.... I really look stupid, He strong! to mess around while fighting me... wrong,  this is a mistake for me to "holding back"!!]

While vibrated twin sword, Dietrich did not wipe off his bitter feeling.

The only ruffian in captain rank, he and Guyaledy combination boast the strongest duo in the second squad.

The fact that he was stopped from seizing the victory also a proof of the enemy's strength.

[Even so... it would be bad if we keep drag on the fight.]

Moreover, he begin to feel a slightly rounding in his machine movement.

The obvious reason is, by prolonging the battle will result in the decrease of magic saving amount (mana pool).

[Hahaha...your twin sword are slowing down!! what to do, what to do!  slippy handing sword like that, You are no match for us!]

Suddenly, Swordsman increases the pressure.

While handling the attack desperately,  Dietrich was carrying another kind of doubt. 

Swordsman fighting motion did "Not dull at all".

The muscle tissue of Swordsman and Tyrantor should be slow down after keep up the melee combat like the reduced mana pool Guyaledy.

But the enemy's movement did not look decline a little bit.

Especially a massive size of Tyrantor, it should consume a large amount of mana according to its body size.

It really not feel funny a little bit to guessing the mana pool for that size.

[Hah--h? Had you worn out already? well, It already fun enough. well then, I should wrap thing up now!]

The muscles tissue of Swordsman creaks intensely,  leaking a sound to the surrounding. filling up with an unnatural force.

Against Guyaledy and Kardetolle which the movement got duller due to lack of magic.

Tide of the situation changing in an instant,  the second squad had been forced into the corner.

[...certainly, we're at the disadvantage right now. I will admit it...but you guys did not forget something right?]

Dietrich's word did not lose a courage in such a situation, Gustav asked back with an eyebrow.

He just only acts bravely? Nope,  He denies it.

He always obsession in transformation of the sword,
(TN: A sword fetish, A perverted swordsman....)

He tries to understand his enemy'word by merging sword together.

In his view, remembered his intensive swordplay and the raging fire of the crimson knight which rising in strength, It's useless, he not able to make a connection.

[...keh, I got it!]

The next moment when Gustav's thought arrive at the answer, it also too late, the game changer already arrived in that place.

Echoing out of the wood, there a sound of horseshoe full of weight.

After escaped the attack from Airship, Tzendrinble of the third squad come back to the battlefield.

[That horse did not only use for transportation? and there was a few of them! this is bad....]

One company (10 machines) of the second squad plus 5 Tzendrinble of the third squad in addition, now have the number than Gustav squad (12 machines) , plus the fighting ability of centaur knight still unknown in addition, he could not maintain the current force ratio calculation.

Encouraged by the horseshoe, Guyaledy pouring its last remaining mana and taking the deadly stance.

The running sound of ether reactor with the maximum output, go punch through with shrilly voice.

Their trump card return and now they don't need to holding back.

Gustav corps are slightly upset, they completely forgot about the horse and now Tzendrinble charge attack coming out from the woods.

The cavalry assault (lance charge) with a speed of 10 times possess a fatal destruction power to the black knight which already got damaged from battle with the second squad.
(TN: I think it's 10 times of normal silhouette knight thrust power.)

Exactly 5 black knights went into total destruction after got run up by the centaur knight that charge at their flank, they all down to their knee.

[Na...this horse...too cheat! fuck this, How dare of you!!]

Gustav barking while trying to force back the fight but  an unexpected situation that "benefits everyone" happens.

The black knight who was stranded by the charge attack caused a large explosion without any warning.

An instant reaction caught up everything in the explosion regardless friend or foe who was on the spot.

But  this explosion does not have destruction power at all, rather, 
It causing a thick smoke around the surrounding which blinds the vision in few step range instead.

[A smoke...blindfold? such a nasty tactic! Fall back! We gonna crash at each other if being careless.  get out of smoke first!] 

Dietrich who lose the sight is wary about enemy's surprise attack, he falls back and  strengthened his guard.

Experienced an unknown situation, he couldn't afford to be careless.

Same as the third squad, it takes a risk to keep Tzendrinble's rush while don't see anything ahead.

[What the hell is this...what happen?]

And, even Gustav also retreated while got puzzled himself too.

He never heard there was such a function on the black knight.

Because they were able to escape from centaur knight by this smoke, it was not a bad situation for him.

By retreated together, the distance between two armies was wider.

When he trying to seek the opportunity, a blowing gust came through behind Gustav.

The smoke that was lying on the battlefield went blow away in the wind.

[This is.... a flying ship! did it just come back!?]

The second squad takes caution for its attack. 

Instead,

Before their eyes, there was an appearance of an airship which serves as a trump card for the Steel Wing knights.

The airship appeared with low altitude almost touch the tree on the highway, dropped a chain from the open hanger at its bottom.

The intention is obviousness, the surviving black knights and Swordsman grab the chain of a crane that hung down from the airship and soaring up in the sky.

while rise up,  a voice came down from Swordsman.

[Tch! seem like we need to re-organize. Oi, You are a good sword holder, Red one, until we meet again in next war, you better not die!]

The airship takes the boarding silhouette knight inside, start to increase the speed and altitude with a loud voice of wind engine.

Of course,  Dietrich did not have the intention to let it run away silently,

The second squad immediately release an attack and give a chase.

However, only a few shot manage to scratch the airship.

It was impossible to stop it with their current equipment.

[...so.....they escape?..quite an annoying. anyway, we can't really ignore that airship which is an effective weapon of the enemy.  time to asked the grandmaster(Enesti), we need to prepare something about this.]

Dietrich muttered with frustration while send-off the leaving flying airship with a glance.

Part 6. (Unedited)

[...I see, this is your doing is it? just when the hell on earth you in charge!] 

While leaving the place by riding on the airship, Gustav asked the person who sat on the captain seat with moody tone.

[Well, before the departure, this is just a little favor, don't you agree? this is my job too, isn't?]

Gerhild who sedately sitting in the captain seat answered with odious tone to his question.

His game got interrupted, Gustav is angry.

But by the girl's interfere trick, they had escaped the predicament which was the fact.

[I will say thank....only this time, but do remember, there is no second chance.]

After only left a word with little thought, he heads to the hanger to see his subordinates condition.


While sending off his back, Gerhild floated a deep smile.
