Chapter 26: Victory and Despair.
Rhode-sama!
Sieg, dispose of it as if she was struck by the Resistance.
Sieg was too surprised to move.
He was even terrified of the boy who had kicked his own sister in the foot and ordered him to do it.
Only you and I know about this. I know, you have a special attachment to this country.
!! . why do you know that?
Ive done a bit of research, no hard feelings. Thats why you didnt like her, did you? You hated that trashy woman. Killing humans like theyre trash.
Even though they were of the same royal family, the look in his eyes when he called his own sister was definitely like looking at a real piece of rubbish.
understand. I will take this to my grave.
Even if he were to expose it, with the Rhodes as his opponents, he would be shaken out of his grip and pretend it never happened.
I dont think I could defeat Rhodes trickery.
Besides, this woman has done a lot of harm to the country, and to the world would be a little better off if she were gone.
She was so rotten that it was beyond help.
Even the knights in the service of the Empire think it would be better for her to die.
If that is the case, it is better for Sieg to remain silent.
Then lets go back.
.. yes.
~Time returns to the time when Raina returned to the command center.
Alright, I want a map, identification signals and as many enemy positions as we know.
Mmm!
Rhode sits on his throne.
A huge monitor before his eyes shows the battlefield.
The blue marks are allies. And a simplified map of the battlefield with red marks representing the enemy.
The allies were marked with an alphabet for each unit and a numerical value within that unit.
Rhode looks at it and ponders.
Rhode looks at it for a while, but then stands up, seeming to have gathered his thoughts.
He then gives orders to his soldiers.
Well, lets counter-attack.
The order to counterattack the resistance.
Meanwhile, Yumirs Guards.
Damn! Why did the inferiors take the KOG!
They even brought out weapons from the old days!
Were surrounded! Wheres Master Gillian? Weve lost all communication!
The total force of the Resistance led by Isshin surrounds Yumirs Guards with the KOGs they have seized.
Bazooka cannons and even tanks are launching and pinning down the them with a hail of shells.
All right! Right flank, advance and get behind them! Left flank, hold them back with fire!
Yes, sir!
Isshins command was precise, and he was a very good commander.
In wartime, he lost all his battles before the overwhelming annihilation power of the KOG, but now he also has the KOG here.
And having lost their leader and commander, Gillian, the Guards lost their leadership and were unable to perform as well.
As if to fold up, a concentrated drop of force is carried out.
And then, as a final blow.
What the hell are you!
Kenya joins in.
He swung a sword at one of the exhausted KOGs.
Youre here! Kenya-kun!
Yumir has escaped, but Kenya joins him after defeating Gillian.
Isshin-san, please cover me. Ill take them all down.
Kenyas voice echoes around the area from the KOG that landed in front of Isshin.
Isshin laughs while looking at his huge back.
Huff, how dependable. I cant tell which one of us is older with this.
Even though he s about the same age as my daughter, I never thought he would become so dependable.
I feel something close to the dependable seniors I used to have when I was a recruit.
Leave it to me! Go on a rampage with all your might!
-Youve shed your skin again. Kenya-kun.
After controlling his anger and defeating the chief of the Imperial Holy Knights, Kenya has gone one step further.
Im going to kill these guys !
Kenya says aloud as if to himself.
But it is not an angry impulse; he defeats them because he cannot protect them unless he kills them.
Im not used to killing people.
But Im ready to kill people, and Im ready to be killed.
We are both fighting for our lives.
On a battlefield like this, I wont say sweet things anymore about being able to discuss things.
So.
What the hell is this guy?
Wha? Whats going on?
You monster!
Im going to kill it with my own hands, no doubt about it. Thats what fighting means, and thats what facing this world means.
One by one all of them are defeated by Kenya.
From behind, they cannot escape with the support of Isshin.
This is the last!
Kenyas flash cuts down the last KOG.
Sorry, Yumir-sama..
The KOG then explodes.
All defeated.
Kenya dismounted from the KOG and rushed to Isshin and the others who were in command.
And from behind them.
Kenya!
Kaguya!
A girl with a short cut in black top.
Her cheeks were slightly stained with soot, and she jumped into Kenyas chest with black tears.
I was so worried about you..
Thank you, Kaguya..
Kenya and Kaguya embraced.
The special atmosphere of the battlefield makes both of them feel excited.
The two of them look at each other and slowly bring their faces closer together.
A throbbing heartbeat, a red-cheeked Kaguya
They closed their eyes.
And.
Are you going to kiss her?
A thick voice is heard between them.
A bearded old man interrupts between Kaguya and Kenya.
His name is Kurokami Isshin, Kaguya Papa.
Um, sorry. Im sorry.
Dad!
Its an emotional reunion, but we dont have that much time right now, do we? I know how it feels to get excited.
Ba, you idiot! I just got a bit of dust in my eye! What the hell are you talking about? Pervert!
Eh? Wh-Why ?
Isshin is stunned with his hand on his cheek when Kaguya slaps him as hard as she can.
Kaguya turns her back on Kenya on the spot, making a sound as if shes pouting.
What am I doing! Oh, its impossible! You cant just kiss me out of the blue!
Kaguya looks down with a bright red face so that no one can see it and calls it impossible.
She cant believe that she was about to kiss him because of the atmosphere, and her face turns so hot that it almost catches fire.
Haha, and anyway, Isshin-san. Is this all the enemies we have?
Yeah, it should be it.
Well- sorry, I let Yumir go.
I see. But you did well. Thanks to you, we escaped total annihilation.
The soldiers in the back also thank Kenya.
Dont get carried away! First of all, rescue and evacuation, this slum is no longer usable! Well save as many as we can!
The enemy is gone.
The Resistance won, but the casualties we suffered were too high.
There was no room for joy.
Kenya looks around at the piles of rubble and corpses.
Once again, he strongly and deeply remembers that fighting is devastating.
Even so, I was glad that the battle was over.
Thats what I thought.
To the Resistance!!!
A loud voice amplified by a loudspeaker is heard by Kenya and the others.
The voice is unfamiliar, but it is probably the voice of an Empire soldier.
Princess Yumir-sama have been found dead. Killing a member of the royal family is a serious crime. Therefore, you have no right to become third-class citizens! In other words, hereby you.
Countless black shadows appeared in the sky above.
The shadows, which must have numbered more than a hundred, painted the sky black.
We will exterminate you!
All of them are KOG.
A huge army of pitch-black KOGs, as if the embodiment of despair.
A large contingent of the 13th Special District Resident Army appears at Rhodes request.
Kenya and his men.
No way right?
To kill them.
