"Go!"

With a single command, the 30 NORUHA golems formed a line and attacked Reiko and Hope.

"Hope, I'll go first!"

"Yes, ma'am."

Reiko was not pleased with Mada?m Ruha's attitude.

She had also heard from Jin that he had interfered with her escape attempt with Rhodes, and that is why she made this offer.

Reiko's side did not have any weapons in their hands since it was a mock battle, but the Norha golems each had a shield and a stick of different lengths in their hands.

The first two charged forward with their shields over their heads.

Reiko slowly approached the first golem.

She lightly hit the shield in her hand, and the shield made of steel shattered into pieces, and the golem's arm was also shattered.

Reiko thought this was too strong, so she kicked the shield of the second golem with a little less power.

This time the golem with the shield is not shattered, but only blown away.

Reiko, who had a good idea of how much force to use, decided to hit them with a stick and take on the two that were coming at her.

The stick that hit her is snapped in half by a blow from her fist.

He grabbed the stick that had been poking him and twisted it, which was twisted off halfway.

The two golems with shortened weapons took about 0.5 seconds to react to the change.

In that small amount of time, Reiko slipped between the two and faced the golem with the stick that formed a line behind it.

It took 0.2 seconds for Reiko to deal with the one that appeared in front of her, but it was more than enough time for her to get a chance.

First, she hits one of them with her body.

Unlike a fist or a kick, the body of the first one is not deformed much, and it is blown backward about 3 meters with 3 golems behind it.

The second one was a spinning kick. The second one was a spinning kick, which also blew up three golems, since the kick was focused on blowing them up rather than destroying them.

This temporarily opened the distance between Reiko and the NORUHA golem squad.

And now Reiko rushes forward.

She stops at subsonic speed because of the acceleration and deceleration, but Norhagorem cannot follow her speed.

Reiko disrupts the Norhagorem's line thoroughly with fist blows, kicks, throws, and body blows.

The 2 meter tall, 400 kg Golem army is at the mercy of the 130 cm tall, 30 kg Reiko. Reiko, who is 130 centimeters tall and weighs 30 kilograms, is playing with them.

Not giving the disorganized Golems time to regroup, Reiko destroys them one by one.

Hope, who had been behind the Golems, joined the battle.

Hope, who was in the rear, used Shoro's imperial style of throwing and slammed the NORUHA golem to the ground.

Since the throws were basically passive, many of the golems suffered damage to their heads and necks, and became unable to move or slowed down.

In the blink of an eye, all 30 Golem units were wiped out. The time it took was about 30 seconds.

* * * * * *

Amazing.

This ...... can't be right. ......

Jean Furusort Laksev, Commander of the 2nd Corps, was amazed, and his second-in-command, Madayim Ruha, was astonished.

Despite the great difference in size, Reiko and Hope (mainly Reiko) were overwhelmingly dominant.

Then came the silence.

"It's over."

Reiko brushed the dust off her skirt.

Hope slowly returns to the room.

"Gigigigig ......"

Madayim Ruha's face turns red and he grits his teeth.

Jin thought, "This can't be right!

"This can't be!　He must have cheated somehow!

He started shouting, "Reiko!

"Reiko, Hope, seize Madaim Ruha!"

Jin ordered, and a second later, Madaim Ruha was pinned to the ground by Reiko and Hope.

"Your Highness, I apologize for seizing a soldier of your country without permission."

The first prince, Zifora Movie de Norha, waved his hand and said not to worry about it.

"No, from my point of view, Ruha's behavior just now was strange. Thank God you took him down before anything else happened."

"Really. Thank you, ...... Jin-sama."

The madame Ruha is still ranting and raving even after being subdued.

"Is this brainwashing ......?"

Jin decides to try out the <>.

Since Jin is the kind of person who immediately installs these new weapons and devices in Reiko, he decided to try it out,

"Reiko, try it out.

Jin says to her,

"Yes, father. Then, let's get to it."

Reiko then aimed her <> at Mada?m Ruha.

"......GGGHHH!"

Madaim Ruha screamed, even though she was not supposed to be in any physical pain.

But it was not a sound of pain, but of shock at coming to his senses.

"...... I ...... why did you do that ......?"

The tone of her voice was calm, a far cry from her earlier voice.

"Reiko, loosen his restraints."

Jin then stopped holding her down on the ground. However, he still held her arms, just in case.

"Madayim Ruha, what's going on?"

Zonata Nictes Vecchio, the Minister of Military Affairs, asked,

"Yes. It seems that about a third of what I have done so far, which I considered to be my own will, has been done under some kind of compulsion.

Shocked by this realization, Madayim Ruha replied.

"Hmmm...... now, it seems that Jin-dono has used something called a < on you. If it worked, then ......."

"......I am very sorry to say this, but it means that Madaim Ruha has been brainwashed."

Jin took over and explained.

"The <> has the effect of lifting the brainwashing."

The 1st Prince, the Minister of Technology, the Minister of Magic, the Minister of Military Affairs, and the Commander of the 2nd Corps could not hide their surprise at this explanation.

"Ummm ......"

"...... If you're talking about brainwashing, then who else but the Duchy of Jagus could be behind it?"

"That's what I'm thinking."

It seems that even in the Principality of Norway, it is well known that the Duchy of Jags possesses brainwashing technology.

"In that case, ......"

The first prince, Gifora Movie de Norja, thought for a moment and turned to Jin.

"Jin, I have seen with my own eyes the power of Miss Leco and Hope.

"Yes. As legend has it, Mistress Reiko is indeed the most powerful automaton in the world.

The Minister of War, Zonata Nictes Vecchio, also bowed to Jin.

"My name, Jin-dono, is , after my predecessor, the Magecraft Meister. My family are all followers of the Magecraft Meister.

Jean Furusort Raksev, Commander of the 2nd Corps, smiled a little shyly as he said this.

"This is a little different from what we had planned, but we would like to discuss the Duchy of Jagus after this, how about it?"

The first prince said, "We can never be too careful in that country, as we saw in the case of Madaim Ruha, who was brainwashed without being aware of it.

"Yes, that might be better. I don't mind.

Jin agreed, and the Minister of War, Zonata Nictes Vecchio, said, "Well, then, let's take a break,

Then let's go back to the castle. I would like to ask Gaju Tuga and Theoderic to join us if possible.

I said.

"Yes, that would be good. I will ask them to be present as well."

The first prince said that he would ask them to adjust the overall schedule and returned to the castle.
