Heroic Spirit: I, Shinji, have tried my best.

"Tsk...huddling together for warmth? That's really touching. Since you two are so anxious, I'll deal with you first!"

A hint of madness appeared on the girl's face, and the wings on her waist spread wide, and a magic circle with strange black patterns unfolded under her feet.

Black spots of light began to appear around him continuously, and in the blink of an eye, they were densely packed.

Finally, at the moment when the opponent gently waved his hand, a violent storm of attacks poured down madly everywhere in front of him.

"Ha ha ha ha…"

Seeing the earth being torn into pieces by herself, and hearing explosions everywhere, the Flügel girl, who was born to love war, laughed happily.

After laughing for a while, he created a sickle again. With his other hand, he held up a ball of black energy and carefully scanned the explosion area below.

I believe that if there is any slight disturbance below, she will rush over to finish off the enemy instantly!

After all, she also knew that such an attack would not be enough to kill those troublesome guys...well, it would be better not to.

Otherwise, wouldn’t it be boring if the toy she found with great difficulty turned out to be a smuggled product?

Suddenly, the girl's blood-filled eyes suddenly lit up, and the corners of her mouth locked onto a corner in the smokescreen produced by the explosion:

"Found you!"

The energy ball in his hand, which was as big as his head, was thrown directly downwards...

"[Traffic Control]"

The dark ball of light pierced through the smoke, leaving a trail in the air, and aimed at Hubie who appeared below.

But Hubie seemed to have anticipated it and immediately opened a magic circle. When the opponent's attack hit him, the magic circle in front of him immediately began to tilt, and then turned the attack away.

"Shinji, do it!"

"Ok?"

At the same time, behind the Flügel girl, a person suddenly rushed out of the smoke and dust, came behind her and released an attack that flashed with dazzling white light.

But such a crude sneak attack could not pose any threat to the opponent at all. The attack flashing with white light was also shattered by hand, and a cloud of dust exploded in the air...

“…cough cough cough, cough cough…eh? This…is this a [Spiritual Corpse]?”

The girl, who was originally in a casual posture, suddenly started coughing after inhaling the dust. She even inhaled a large mouthful without paying attention, causing her tears to come out as she was about to choke.

The "spiritual corpse" she mentioned is the remaining body of the "elf" after being used. This substance no longer has any usable energy and is classified as metabolic waste.

Of course, to put it simply, it was [Black and Gray]. Although it had no lethality to the Flügel, it was like throwing a handful of sand in your face, which was quite insulting...

“Ahem… They’re releasing [Spirit Corpses] everywhere. This is really destroying the environment! Wait…”

The girl was about to rush over and chop the bastard to death, but suddenly she realized something was wrong:

She clearly remembered that the human had no spirit fluctuations when he released the attack. Although this surprised her, it also showed that the human's [Spirit Adaptability] was still zero...

"That means..."

The girl narrowed her eyes and did not rush forward directly. Instead, she slashed with a black slash, cutting through the smoke that blocked her vision...

Immediately, the figure hidden in it was revealed... It was not that human, but another Ex-Machina with him.

When the other party saw that she did not follow in, he immediately showed a panic expression...it turned out to be a trap!

"Dian Kai... Ugh!"

When Ashe saw that she had been discovered, she hurriedly raised the weapon in her hand and wanted to launch an attack.

But this time he was a step too slow. Before Dian Kai could deploy his weapons, he was instantly approached by the enemy and then grabbed by the neck...

The Flügel girl stared at the struggling Ex-Machina in her hands with a sneer, but she did not kill him directly, because she was more curious about the human with special abilities.

"So... Mr. Monkey who loves to play hide-and-seek, even if that's the case, you're not going to show up?"

"Ugh!"

The strength of his hands intensified, and at the same time, his eyes kept looking around for the other person's figure. Based on human emotions, generally speaking, people would not abandon their companions...

"Fire escape..."

“Hmph…Here it comes!”

“…Great Fire Extinguishing Arrow!”

In the smoke and dust that was gradually dissipating below, an arrow-shaped flame shot straight up into the sky, which made the girl in the sky look interested again.

"Another attack that doesn't require [Elves]... Let me see how many surprises you can bring me!"

Holding Ashe in one hand, he swung the black sickle in the other and chopped it down heavily in front of him. The seemingly powerful pillar of fire was vulnerable and was cut in half.

Sure enough, these are just flower stands.

However, after the first strike, there were countless attacks: thunder, strong wind, flames, stone pillars, water blades...

Various attacks came one after another, but these attacks shattered at the slightest touch and could not cause any real damage to the girl. This also made her so angry that she didn't even bother to defend herself.

"After wasting so much time, it's my turn now...try this!"

The dark spell reappeared, and a huge black ball of light suddenly gathered in the sky... This attack contained a quarter of the girl's strongest move, [Sky Strike].

You know, even if only 5% of it is used, it is enough to cut off a sea, and now once this attack lands, the creatures below will be completely wiped out...

"Although it's a pity that I can't get your head, I have to admit that your existence does give me a bad feeling..."

"…boom!!!"

A huge high-density energy body fell, and a huge heat wave that surpassed the explosion of a nuclear bomb rushed outward. The Flügel girl standing near the center of the explosion looked at the scene below as if admiring it.

"Well, you should also take a good look at your human companion who has been reduced to nothing but a corpse..."

"Pfft!"

"!?"

The girl's eyes widened in disbelief, looking at the black gun that pierced her chest, and she looked back with confusion... Ex-Machina, why would there be such an attack?

As she turned her head, she no longer saw the expressionless face of the Ex-Machina, but a mocking expression:

“…You’ve been fighting with the clone for so long. You must have worked so hard!”

"!Who are you!"

How could this be possible?

She had clearly captured that Ex-Machina, how did it become this human?

Wait... at that time...

At that time, she seemed to see the Ex-Machina showing "fear" and "pain"... But, how could a machine have such emotions? In other words, at that time...

"Have you finally realized it? But don't worry, the best is yet to come..."

"What!?"

The other party's yellow pupils trembled, and at this moment a red light hit her face. She looked up and saw two Ex-Machina girls setting up a cannon together. The flames at the muzzle kept bringing her a familiar feeling...

"That's... the Dragon Spirit's [Crashing Roar]!"

Can they even simulate this? How could these damned idiots achieve such a feat?

"Hey! Do you want to die with me?!"

Before she could react, the [Roaring Collapse] was already right in front of her, but the human beside her still refused to leave.

The black gun that pierced her chest would not cause serious injuries, but it did restrict her movements. Especially when the two of them were of similar strength, she had no time to escape for a while...

"We'll both perish? It would be nice if it were that simple..."

Seeing the imminent attack, Shinji was not panicked at all. He still restrained the girl's movements tightly and put his mouth close to her ear and said:

"…I remember you guys have a space-time ability called [Sky Shift]. If I let go now, won't you run away?"

"…So what if that's the case? Do you still want to use this method to drag me down with you…"

"No, no, no! There are two flaws in what you said..."

Shinji interrupted the girl, looking at the attack that almost brushed his cheek, and finally left these words for the girl:

"…The first point is that I didn't intend to kill you with this blow, and the second point is…why do you think I don't have the same space-time ability as you?"

"!?"

"Heaven's Hand Power!"

The sense of restraint disappeared instantly. Under the girl's incredulous gaze, the human figure just now turned into a stone. At the same time, the scorching [Breaking Roar] had already hit her completely. Although its power was far less than that of the real thing, it was enough to make her feel dangerous...

"Damn it... I fell into a trap!"
