"...... I see, <> itself acts as a shield, so <> is less effective."

For more details, it is necessary to obtain the actual object and investigate its characteristics, but Hitoshi has a hypothesis.

The <> works by forcibly converting <> back to <>, but Jin thinks that the <> itself has a shielding effect, which reduces the effect of the <>.

Therefore, it would be effective if the radiation was applied for a long period of time, but the opponent would not be so lenient.

Then, what is the best way to disable them?

The fastest way to do so is to make the <> retract the order.

Reiko and the <> tried to capture Jix and Ganno, which they expected.

Jix and Ganno are each guarded by one of the .

Of the eight remaining golems, one was about to attack King Cesar and his party, and the other was about to attack Jin and Erza, the doppelgangers.

The other six were heading in different directions, and it was obvious that the damage would spread if left unchecked.

Jin regretted that he would have to resort to more extreme measures in this case.

"...... We know that the control core is in the head, so I guess we'll have to detach it."

* * *

"Whoa, whoa!　They've gone crazy!

Sir!　Your Majesty!

The attacked King Cesar and his men. The steward intercepted them.

<

With a dull sound unique to foam metal, the <> is blown about five meters away.

"Your Majesty!　This way!"

Jin (his doppelganger) called out to King Cesar and his party.

It is easier to protect one place than two. Jin and Erza put up a barrier.

"<>, will he be all right?"

Now, <> is fighting against two of them.

"Yes, it's no problem. I'm sure the golem maids will hear the commotion and come running.

Reiko is here," Jin (his doppelganger) explained, reassuring the kings.

And true to her words, the five-colored golem maid appeared.

Of course, she had been transferred from Horai Island.

In her hand she holds a <>. Naturally, he has one for <> as well.

"Master, I will protect you."

"All right, steward, leave this to the maids and you go intercept them!"

"Yes."

The steward receives the Vibration Sword from the golem maid, and starts to run.

"Jin-dono, are you alright?"

No matter how powerful they are, the difference in combat ability between the golem maids and the <> is obvious. ...... and Ragade, the First Secretary of the Ministry of Military Affairs, asked with a pale face.

"It's okay."

Jin (doppelganger) pointed at the five-colored golem maid, Ruby 1, who was about to intercept the <> that had attacked them.

Unless it is a combat battle, speed is often the key to a golem battle.

And the lightweight golem-maid was twice as fast as the <>.

The fact that the <> was unarmed was also significant.

Ruby dodged the incoming golem and kicked it in the side of the head.

The < shifts its direction of thrust, and passes by Jin and the others.

Ames1 kicked it in the back.

The < stays on its feet despite being knocked off its feet. But by that time, Aqua 1 has drawn his <> from his hand.

The head of the Golem rolls away.

The control core is detached, and the <> comes to a halt.

The other Golem that had attacked Jin and the others was being fought by Topaz 1 and Perido 1.

Topaz and Perido attacked the < in turn.

They are not powerful enough to do any damage, but they succeed in keeping them at a distance from Jin and the others.

And then...

Topaz 1 pulls out a from his back, and with a flash of his sword, the golem's head rolls over.

The head rolls over.

The second Golem, the Niviro Golem, stops moving.

"It's all right now."

Jin's doppelganger says.

The Cesar kings sighed with relief.

"Let's leave the rest to Reiko and the and catch those two.

Jin (his doppelganger) pointed to Jix and Ganno, who were hiding behind the two <>.

"Please."

Jin (his doppelganger) said,

"Yes, I'll take care of it.

And the four of them, except for Perido 1, began to move. Peridot 1 is naturally the guard of Jin and the others.

A barrier was put up, but only as a precaution. It is also to give psychological reassurance to the Cesar kings.

Aqua1 and Topaz1 went to Ganno's place, and Ruby1 and Amezu1 went to Jix's place.

Meanwhile, Reiko chased after the < as it broke away from the training ground to attack its surroundings.

<

The speed difference is more than four times. Peach Blossom, in Vibration Sword mode, swung horizontally while maintaining the same speed.

"One first!"

Reiko looks for her next target, not even paying attention to the headless, stationary Nibi-iro Golem.

She sees a < running in a direction 90 degrees off from the direction she came from. Reiko runs instantly.

Reiko catches up with it in less than 10 seconds and swings her sword.

But, as it happens, the <> loses its stance and narrowly dodges the sword.

"But ......!"

But the second blow severed its neck and brought it to a halt.

The next one is ...... far away.

Already about a kilometer away, there was a <> that had begun to destroy the castle walls.

Reiko increased her speed even more.

<, she could easily exceed 1000 km/h. At subsonic speeds, she could easily reach the speed of 1000 km/h.

At subsonic speed, Reiko slams into the Niviro Golem, which is breaking down the castle wall.

The impact blows the Golem to pieces.

"Two more!"

At this time, had already taken out two of them.

Although not as strong as Reiko, her performance enhanced by Jin was not a fluke.

And, on top of that, he had the <> in his hands.

The only substance that can protect against this is the shell of an ancient dragon that has been strengthened to the utmost limit by magic power, in other words, Reiko's skin.

However, Reiko also has a , so it is possible to prevent it without directly touching her.

But <> had neither.

It slashed its legs as it kicked at you, and then dropped its head.

It decapitated the arm that tried to defend itself.

Then the two stopped moving.
