Monsters
"Shiro-san, it went over there!"
Wince missed a monster falling from the sky.
"Leave it to me!"
But no one is going to blame her
I decapitated the monster
"This guy!"
That individual acts just fine from the neck down.
Even though the monster I killed earlier has ceased to be active.
"Nueryaaaaa!"
A lance is stabbed from behind the monster I failed to kill.
It's Shelbim's blow.
"...This guy's weak point seems to be around his right lung."
"I see. It's troublesome that each individual has different weak points."
Monsters sent from the sky have one thing in common.
Only that it has a baby's head on it.
All other parts are different
Some have bear-like bristles.
Some have a man's legs grew out like a centipede.
Some have exposed bones
It's like having a computer choose the shape of the creature at random.
An existence that completely ignores biology and survival efficiency.
"The Railgun won't stop them."
"I hope we can shoot them down before they land."
The Railgun trajectories can be seen in the sky across the Empire.
There are small explosions occurring in front of it, so it must have been a hit.
"The current blow is quite far away, is it on the southwestern continent?"
"Can you see it? ...I guess that's to be expected."
"Shiro-san, Shelbim. Yukikaze is contacting you two."
It looks like Wince has received a transmission.
"What is it?"
"Go back to the Imperial Castle."
"Is it okay?"
"Yes, the monster extermination in the empire is nearing completion."
In the empire,
So, is it raining on other continents as well?
"I guess there's a limit to how much one can annihilate."
"We, the Temple Knights have been dispatched to other continents. This situation is horrifying, but they are not an insurmountable enemy, so please rely on us more."
Is it okay to rely on them?
Am I being overprotective after all?
I don't want to put too much burden on the knights.
"...Should we go back? Where are we?"
"We're almost entering the Ulfrika district."
"We're a long way from the imperial capital. Shelbim, can you run?"
"I can follow you without any problem. Let's be back soon."
