Time in a collapsing world

"somebody is coming."

Not only Jennyk, but also the attackers as well as Yaesakura and Chani, who were still able to move, noticed the figure that was getting closer.

Just like an old TV screen, each flicker brings the distance closer.

"It's brother!"

Yaesakura's face lit up with joy. Although the other person had become smaller again, she still recognized him at a glance.

"Finally here? Ha, I was just wondering if Li would come at this most critical moment."

Chani also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, reinforcements arrived, otherwise they might have really died here.

"Are there any reinforcements?"

One of the attackers frowned, but when he saw the small figure on the horse, his heart, which had been lifted up in the air, slowly calmed down.

She's just a little girl, nothing special... Wait, a pink-haired girl who can be active on the front line? Is she another child of the Yae family?

Someone reacted.

In preparation for this attack, they had gone through the files on all the teams over and over again, so naturally they knew some information about Yaezaki.

But compared to the file, the person who was rushing over seemed to be a little younger than Yae Ri in the file.

"Shoot her down."

One of the attackers said, and immediately some of them pointed their guns at Yae Riki who was approaching.

boom! boom! boom!

There was a burst of gunfire, not only shooting at Yaeri, but also forcing back Yaezakura and Chani who were trying to take advantage of the opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

The man on horseback disappeared. Before they could confirm whether the other party had been shot down, everyone's heart suddenly shrank. They only felt a flash of pink in front of their eyes. Then, whether the exposed or hidden attackers, they all felt a black screen in front of their eyes and fell to the ground.

"cherry."

Yaeji appeared in front of his sister, looked up at her slightly, and before he could say anything, he was hugged and buried in the soft arms.

Feeling the other person's slightly trembling body, Yaeri also stretched out her arms, hugged Yaesakura, and patted her back.

Although Yae Sakura performed so bravely in the battle, it was obvious that she still felt afraid when facing such a difficult situation, and she could only express it without hesitation in front of her brother.

However, the hug between the two only lasted for a few seconds. Yaezakura quickly let go of Yaezakura and said anxiously, "Brother, Sister Shura and the others are injured. We need to take them back for treatment as soon as possible."

"I see. I'll go check it out."

Yaeri didn't even bother to greet Chani, and went straight to Shura, who had fallen into a coma due to excessive blood loss, squatted down, and touched the other's body.

Shula's injuries were the most serious. Normally, even if he was sent back to the headquarters, he could not be cured with the existing medical level.

It's just fortunate that Yaeri's power is like magic to people of this era, and it can do anything.

As the power of authority at the point of physical contact was transferred, the gunshot wound on Shula's body slowly healed, and everything returned to its original intact state.

It was just that the physical injuries had not healed, and Shura would not wake up for a while. Yaeri did not want to use her power to forcibly wake her up, but went to find Lizana and Mercedes.

The two people fell very close to each other. After seeing that the attackers were dealt with by Yae Ri, Jennyk walked over and checked their injuries.

"Just fainted, that's all."

Janek covered her injured area and said to Yae Ri who was approaching her.

“Do you want to protect yourself?”

Yaegi's eyes were still black and white, and this time he had no intention of hiding anything from Jennik.

"your eyes……"

"Magic that can heal injuries."

"...Okay then. Thank you for your help."

Janek didn't ask any more questions, but presented her injuries to Yae Ri.

While using her power to heal him, Yae Ri even had the time to smile at him, "Captain, don't be so reserved. No matter what I become, I'm still your team member, right?"

"I can't control you. If I'm not mistaken, you came here this time with the intention of earning enough military merits and returning to the rear with your sister to live a leisurely life, right?"

Jennyk said, “Otherwise, you wouldn’t show your abnormality so easily after hiding it for so long.”

"After all, it's rare to see such a large-scale beast tide, so we must seize the opportunity."

Yaegi nodded. Even though she exposed her ability only because she had become more open-minded after recovering her memory, and not as Jennyk thought, the conclusion was similar.

Janek's injuries were healed within ten seconds. Yaeri handed the sphere to her and then treated the fallen Lizana and Mercedes.

Roar---!

There were roars of beasts, and not just one, accompanied by the shaking of the ground and huge and noisy footsteps.

That was a group of beasts attracted by the dead Honkai beasts.

There are more than imagined, and it has already reached the scale of a small beast tide.

"it's time to go."

Janek slapped the unconscious Lizana and Mercedes twice each, forcing them to wake up.

"Um, um...Captain?"

Lizana shook her head, still dazed.

"Where are the enemies?"

Mercedes immediately became alert. Although she fainted from the impact of the explosion, she could imagine what would happen next.

"Everything has been solved, but new troubles have come."

Jennyk briefly explained to the two what had just happened, then gathered everyone and began preparing to evacuate.

But while all the teammates wanted to run away, Yaeri had other ideas.

"Captain, how about you go first?"

"Huh? Are you kidding? We have plenty of time to leave now, so how could we let you stay behind?"

Jennyk stared at him closely, fearing that the boy might become upset.

"No, I mean... there don't seem to be too many Honkai beasts coming. I can handle them all by myself."

Yaeri explained.

"You want to fight against an entire beast horde by yourself? Even though it's only a small one... it's still too risky."

Lizana was carrying Shura on her back, and perhaps because the other party was seriously injured before, Jennik did not slap him to wake him up.

"This is too much, Ying, try to persuade your brother."

Mercedes looked at Yaezakura, but she believed in Yaeri without reservation.

"If it was my brother, he could do it."

Yaezakura was so sure.

"Um……"

Chani is hesitating whether she should also follow Yaezakura's example and improve Yaeri's favorability?

"Forget it, go ahead and fight if you want. We can all do it except Shura."

Perhaps thinking of the miracles Yae Ri had performed before, Jennyk's attitude was not so tough anymore, and she chose to accompany him on this adventure.

"No, I'm enough on my own."
