"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

Jin, Reiko, and Marikka were cheering at the flight racecourse where they had been transferred to.

"Oh!"

They are in the middle of the finals.

The competition is called .

The surface of the plane is coated with a special transparent paint that reacts to specific light, and the attack method is a ray gun that emits light of the wavelength that reacts to the paint.

When the paint is hit by light, it changes color from transparent to red, and this is used to determine if the aircraft is hit by a bullet.

"That's an interesting way of doing things."

This is a great way to compete in the bloodthirsty action of air combat, or aerial combat, without destruction.

Of course, the planes were all made by the participants, and the pilots were either golems or automata.

The propulsion system was a <>, so it looked like an aerial battle between jet fighters.

Since the aircraft is not going supersonic, it is visible to the spectators.

Now it was the final match, so a one-on-one battle was going on.

"This is interesting."

"It is, isn't it?"

I wish you had told me about this earlier.

"I understand. But you've been busy, and so have I. ......"

"Well, yes."

Until recently, both Jin and Marikka had been busy with the .

Therefore, it was thought that the old man was too careful not to let Jin know about it.

In fact, he was in the middle of the semi-final match against and at the same time.

It seems that the aircraft had a maintenance period after the semi-finals so that it could be in the best condition for the finals, which is why we are here today.

It may be that the administrative magic brain of <>, ......, was just a little bit concerned about his master, Marikka.

* * * *

The backward-angled aircraft did a somersault, passing the delta-winged aircraft that was approaching from behind and coming up behind it.

The delta-wing aircraft dived to the lower left.

It continued to descend at an angle of about 45 degrees. The delta-wing plane follows.

On the ground......, just above the surface of the sea, the delta-wing plane pulls its nose up and climbs vertically.

The retro-angled plane follows.

Up to this point, the two planes are evenly matched in the maneuvering battle.

The delta-wing aircrafts are now in a vertical ascent.

"Oh, it's a great spectacle, isn't it?

"That's great, Mr. Jin."

Jin and Marikka were watching the game in a booth out of sight of the crowd.

It seemed that had prepared this booth for them.

"What's that?　Is that delta wing aircraft ...... Rubina?"

I was looking around the venue thinking that the design looked familiar to me, when I saw the name of Rubina Garrett and <> on the luminous billboard.

The <> was the delta wing plane that Rubina had built for the airplane competition in Onogoro Island, in which Jin had also participated.

It was the fourth model of the , so it was sophisticated in both style and performance.

The retrofoil plane was named <, and its builder was <.

"Shu made that plane at that time ......<>?"

The final match was a one-on-one battle between Rubina and Shu.

The maximum speeds were almost equal. The <<> had better mobility, but the <> was more accurate in shooting.

As a result, they are almost even in total.

Since the performance of the golem being piloted was about the same, the final match was very impressive.

* * * * * * * * * * * * *

The two were almost evenly matched in vertical ascent, and the <> avoided the rays of light fired by the <> that was behind it by repeatedly performing the <> and the <>, a zigzag flight maneuver.

The <>, however, was still unable to shake off the aileron, so after the scissors, it instantly reversed its course and began to descend sharply.

The two planes pass each other in a mere 0.3 seconds.

In the meantime, both aircraft fire rays of light, but neither is hit by a fatal bullet.

The <> enters a loop, followed by the <>.

The two planes form a large circle in the evening sky and enter the so-called "Tomoe-sen.

If it were a human pilot, either one or both of them would have dropped out due to the great G-force and the strain on their bodies, but the pilots of the two planes are golems, and a little G-force does not faze them.

The two pilots, Golem and Golem, were not affected by the slight G-force. They made about 20 loops, but both pilots did not give in.

As the game was getting a thousand-day-old and the sun was setting, it became difficult to see (for the spectators), and the management declared the game a tie due to time expired.

>

There was a roar from the audience, followed by applause for the good work of both sides.

"Well, that was a thriller!

"Yes, you did, Jin-sama."

Jin and Marikka were also fascinated by the battle between Rubina and Shu's two ......2 machines, even though they were only halfway through.

"Well, I'll be with Rubina and the others in a little while......."

Jin said,.......

>

The announcement echoed through the room.

"...... Wow!"

"I knew it!

Then, the caretakers, Mr. and Mrs. Trihardt and Suzanne, came to them in a big hurry.

"Mr. Jin!　Marikka-sama!

Please let us know if you are coming!

"Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. ...... I just had an impromptu thought.

I'm sorry. That's just the way it is."

Jin apologized and explained that he was on his way back from an errand to .

"I see. But you still have some time left, don't you?"

"That's right. ......

"Well, since you are here, please tell us what you thought of the finals. Please tell us what you thought of the finals, Marikka-sama.

"Well, okay."

So Jin, Reiko, and Marikka were taken by Trihart to the guests' seats.

There, they were given a <.

First, Trihart says a few words.

>

Jin began to speak amidst a whirlwind of cheers and applause.

"Hello everyone, it's been a while. My name is Jin Nido. It's a real coincidence that I happened to be here on business and had the pleasure of watching this wonderful final match. Both pilots had great planes, great golems, and great flights. And the method of improving combat skills without destroying them was also excellent. ......"

Everyone applauded Jin's words with delight.

Marikka was next.

"This is Marikka. How are you, everyone?　I have not been able to come here for a while because of some problems on the Rasil continent, but the situation has finally calmed down and I was able to visit you. ......"

Maricka began with an update and praised the final match as well as Jin.

The two would spend the night on Onogoro Island.
