A A-

The clock on the nuclear-powered submarine carrier, Virginia, was changed to the local ti of the destination.

And now this clock showed the ti: exactly 17:00. Tatsuya left the cabin and headed for the bridge, accompanied by the guard/surveillance soldier assigned to him.

Nobody forbade him to enter the bridge.

Tatsuya.

On the contrary, the captain of the ship, Colonel Michael Curtis, turned to him and addressed him extrely friendly.

He was the nephew of Wyatt Curtis and Tatsuya's most influential assistant during this mission. But Captain Curtis liked Tatsuya even without all that.

We reach Midway Island in about an hour.

I see. Everything is on schedule.

Tatsuya ca to the bridge to confirm the start ti of the operation, but the captain answered him before he even managed to ask.

Preparation won't take much ti. How about a conversation over a cup of coffee?

As Captain Curtis said, preparing for a sortie should not take more than thirty minutes.

Yes, with pleasure.

Tatsuya had no reason to refuse.

The captain broke into a smile, called his senior assistant, and inford him that he would leave the bridge for a short while.

As a result, Captain Curtis led Tatsuya to the captain's cabin.

The captains cabin on the Virginia was so spacious that you wouldnt even think that you were inside a submarine. Before the war, the Virginia itself was an ordinary giant

nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. The internal space was of appropriate dinsions.

They sat at a table opposite each other, and the captain personally made coffee for himself and Tatsuya. Although the coffee was brewed automatically, its taste was excellent. It was an automatic coffee processor with an AI. The opinion that automatically brewed coffee loses in taste to brewed by hand is probably a prejudice.

Tatsuya, the ti is almost here.

Yes. I dont even know how to thank you and the senator.

I understand that you wanted to give priority to Pearl and Hers, but...

The tone of Captain Curtis was a little apologetic. He was clearly a sincere and kind person.

... We have already agreed on everything at the very beginning.

Don't worry about anything, Tatsuya ant.

Really. That was the deal. Therefore, you do not need to belittle your abilities.

Said the captain and smiled broadly.

From this sincere smile, even Tatsuya slightly raised the corners of his lips.

In addition, I can see at close range the combat abilities of the developer of flight magic. I'm so excited.

The captain's eyes were filled with passion bordering on lust.

Flying infantry and flying military equipnt is a revolution in military technology.

With the presence of flight magic, even the thods of warfare themselves began to change. The presence of magicians in war will only grow. At the sa ti, the thinking of commanding officers is also fundantally changing. And I have the honor to be on the scene of these changes. For , as a military man, this is an endless grace.

What I'm trying to do is my own personal battle. I didn't think that it would be useful to soone from a tactical point of view.

No, we are here to change our awareness of what is happening. "Battle" is a group affair. The strength of an individual cannot be compared with the strength of a group of people. This principle has not changed, even when magic was used in battle. "Warriors, worth thousands of n" existed only in fiction. Even the most prominent soldiers had limited mobility.

Captain Curtis realized that he was overexcited, and broke off to take a sip of coffee.

Even the cavalry could not instantly move from one edge of the battlefield to another.

Using motorcycles doesnt help much either. Although many other devices have been developed that increase the maneuverability of the infantry, but being bound by the restriction of movent on the ground, in the end, all these tools were only a substitute for horses. The magic of flight has broken through this limitation.

But even with flight magic, you wont be able to move instantly.

In comparison with conventional ans of transportation, this can be called one instant.

This was Tatsuya's real opinion, not his modesty. However, Curtis insisted that it was a

"fallacy."

Everything in the world is relative. Nothing ends in an instant. The mobility of flying infantry is instantaneous in the sense that it exceeds the response speed of ground units. A powerful unit suddenly appears right in front of you and turns the situation on the battlefield. For front-line commanders, there is no more terrible nightmare. And if this, moreover, is a single soldier, then ordinary common sense cannot be applied to him at all. Because it's like a war against Superman. In this case, all prepared asures beco useless and you need to co up with new ones from scratch.

Captain Curtis grinned, this ti with an insidious grin.

Therefore, I look forward to your battle. After all, it will serve as a model for developing response tactics.

Even after the nuclear-powered submarine aircraft carrier arrived at the designated point and stood in standby mode, Tatsuya didn't advance for so ti. But it was

conceived.

Tatsuya started July 22 at 19:30 local ti. An air-car driven by Tatsuya flew into the dark post-sunset sky.

Midway Island is not one island, but a formation from Sand Island, Eastern Island and many very small islands. So perhaps its better to call it the Midway Archipelago.

Midway Prison is a large facility on the Eastern half of Sand Island. Tatsuya saw this object with the naked eye 10 minutes after departure.

There was no anti-aircraft fire.

"The stealth system seems to be demonstrating its designed effectiveness."

The main improvent of the new air-car was the stealth function. It was implented on the basis of an artificial Relic, also used in the Stellar Furnace. The relic retained a magic sequence that prevented detection/recognition, and allowed it to deploy advanced stealth magic around the air-car's body, regardless of the drivers magic skills.

The continuous operation ti at this stage of developnt is about half a day. When the total operating ti is 12 hours, for further use it will take 12 hours of downti.

However, the ti limit is reset if there is a pause of 12 hours or more whether or not the ti limit is reached. For this mission, that was enough.

Tatsuya landed the air-car on the Northwest coast of Sand Island. From there, he headed towards the prison buildings in the "Freed Suit." The "Freed Suit" was also equipped with a stealth function, but not as good as in the new model of air-car, where the artificial Relic was used. When Tatsuya tried to fly over the high fence encircling the prison grounds, a piercing alarm suddenly sounded.

The turret mounted on the roof of the prison began to turn.

Tatsuya had heard from the Mitsuya family that the only weapons in Midway Prison were Fleming launchers and the soldiers' personal weapons. But now sothing else was turning, aiming directly at Tatsuya...

"Pulse Laser Cannon!"

It was an anti-aircraft laser cannon, going far beyond the use of anti-infantry.

Tatsuya didn't have ti to think that he might've been deceived.

He activated his magic exactly at the sa mont when he recognized the type of weapon.

A mont before the pulsed laser cannon was able to lock its aim on Tatsuya, the outline of the turret disappeared, scattering in flashes of lightning.

Tatsuya's decomposition magic, "Mist Dispersion" decomposed the barrel of the cannon and the pedestal on which it was mounted on down to the level of chemical elents.

The lightning flashes were caused by the fact that the electric current supplied to the cannon for charging the laser lost the conductor through which it moved and chaotically scattered throughout the gas cloud from the tal elents that were decomposed.

"That was dangerous..."

The bulletproof function of the Freed Suit is only resistant to physical bullets, and doesn't have heat resistance sufficient to withstand a high-energy laser. Depending on the aiming speed and rapid-fire of the laser cannon, there was also a risk of falling into an endless cycle of getting shot through the body at the sa ti as "Regrowth" is activated.

The endless cycle of damage and self-healing for Tatsuya, able to repair any damage, is a situation he should be most wary of. If he was to continue using Regrowth without stopping, then sooner or later his magic calculation area will no longer be able to withstand the continuous activation, and will ultimately overheat. Or rather he wont be able to activate Regrowth at all. He will probably be able to withstand activating dozens of tis, but if he does it hundreds of tis in a short period of ti, then the probability of activation failure imdiately rises. This was one of the few ways to overco Tatsuya's invulnerability.

The sense of danger made Tatsuya's perception sharpen even more.

The information about all anti-aircraft and anti-personnel weapons mounted on the roof and walls of the entire complex was instantly and simultaneously displayed in his

"field of vision".

"Mist Dispersion - Activation."

He activated the previous Mist Dispersion reflexively, only with his own invocation power.

This ti, he relied on the help of the built-in CAD in his suit to decompose 12 gun platforms at the sa ti. They also included anti-aircraft installations, for which Tatsuya was now in their blind spot, as well as automatic gun turrets installed underneath the ground in the complex.

All interception weapons installed at Midway Prison, including Fleming anti-ship launchers, disappeared without a trace in five consecutive activation's of Tatsuya's decomposition magic.

Hovering in the sky above Midway Prison, which had been deprived of its weapons, Tatsuya began to use Elental Sight to search for the building containing Canopus.

Tatsuya got information on Benjamin Canopus in February this year, after he prevented him from grabbing Gu Jie. As expected, while there was half of the Pacific Ocean between them, Tatsuya couldn't determine the location of a person he had contact with only once. But now, knowing what to look for on this island, on a specific territory, Tatsuya easily discovered him.

On this territory, about 1x1 km in size, there were ten strong-looking (from an unassuming point of view) buildings.

"Five buildings among them are prison blocks. One building is the administration office, two buildings are living quarters for personnel and soldiers, one building is the armory, and another is a training center."

Information about the person sought-after - Canopus - was found in the very center of the entire complex. The right place was on the third floor of a three-story building, at its southern end.

Tatsuya once again looked at the information about the internal structure of the aforentioned building.

At a short distance away from Canopus there were ten ard soldiers. These were prison guards. It wasn't clear whether they had gathered in one place to protect

Canopus, or to prevent his escape?

Canopus was the only prisoner on this floor. On the first and second floors there were eight prisoners. Of course, the prisoners were all male magicians.

"It goes without saying that my invasion is already known. If I enter from the roof, they will probably co to et ."

There was also an option to outwit them by breaking in from the first floor. But now every second counted. Also this here wasn't his only mission. His real goal, in general, was the Pearl & Hers base.

Tatsuya decided to attack from above, according to the expectations of the guards.

The muzzle of weapons pointed at Tatsuya coming down from the heavens. These short-barreled weapons resembled a PDW (Personal Self-Defense Weapon).

For soldiers guarding the building, preferring ease of use instead of power was a smart choice. In addition, when the enemy is Tatsuya, even if they were high powered, there would be no point.

The weapons fell to pieces on the roof of the building, even before one of them had ti to shoot.

Caught in an unexpected situation, the two soldiers froze for a mont, but soon quickly reached for a waist holster.

But faster than they could do it, Tatsuya pulled a pistol-shaped CAD from his belt and aid at them.

The custom modified Silver Horn "Trident".

At the sa ti as Tatsuya pulled the trigger, tiny holes appeared in the joints of the arms and legs of the two soldiers.

The soldiers made muffled screams, and fell in different directions - one on his back, and the other face down.

He used Trident instead of the built-in CAD in his suit because he knew about the surveillance caras.

The wounds that neutralized the soldiers looked like the traces of invisible bullets passing through them.

In order to create the impression that the invader with a hidden face and dressed in a completely black suit is using such a magic, Tatsuya decided to use his CAD in the form of a pistol, which can be easily connected with these invisible bullets.

Taking one of the pistols from an unconscious soldier, Tatsuya went through the door leading down the stairs.

There was no ambush on the way from the roof to the third floor.

But he didn't even have ti to take one step down from the roof, as a certain sixth sense (not "Elental Sight") - an intuitive sense of danger - made him get down and put his left hand in front of his face.

The field for modifying phenonon, spread out from around his palm to decompose the bullet that flew at him from the wall opposite of him.

It looked as if the bullet ricocheted off that wall, but there was no bounce sound.

But Tatsuya wasn't surprised or puzzled. Along with the decomposition of the bullet, he read and analyzed what the magic properties activated by the enemy were.

The bullet was wrapped in a reflective force field the size of the bullet. It was magic, endowing the properties of bouncing, like a rubber ball, but it reacted only to certain substances. In this case, the installed condition for the rebound was assigned to the drywall, which covered the walls and ceiling.

A bullet flew right towards the side of Tatsuya, who was crouching on one knee, which made a sharp sound. Next, without any pause, the next bullet landed one step from where he stood. Apparently, when aiming, they relied on chance to so extent. So, was the first shot, which hit right on target, also an accident?

The fourth bullet didn't co.

Tatsuya didn't let them shoot.

From below, one could hear surprised screams and the sounds of PDW's falling apart all over the floor.

Of course, this happened because of Tatsuya's handiwork.

Confirming audibly the temporary neutralization of the enemies, Tatsuya ran down the stairs.

The enemy soldiers during this ti managed to snatch pistols. Obviously, the local soldiers were quite well trained, as they didn't remain stunned or stand in a stupor after an unforeseen situation. However, at the current mont, they still didn't have ti to aim.

Tatsuya pulled the trigger on Trident.

Holes appeared in the limbs of three soldiers who where in the first-row trying to shoot. Modern dicine can heal such wounds (cut nerves), but for this it is necessary to undergo treatnt in a hospital. Simple first aid won't help restore mobility to their limbs. Moreover, from the dreadful pain caused by the decomposition of nerves, the victims of this attack lose consciousness. Even if soone manages to avoid the loss of consciousness, then usually no one is able to maintain the clarity in their thinking.

As if not paying attention to the comrades who had lost their combat readiness, two soldiers from the second row sent cylinders at Tatsuya, reminiscent of large flashlights.

Tatsuya recognized the psionic wave noise (cast jamming) which he was bombarded with coming from these "flashlights."

"Psionic wave noise (cast jamming) that obstructs the reading of activation sequence output from a CAD?"

Tatsuya not only felt, but understood this.

"An anti-magician device that mimics the nature of Antinite. But the effectiveness is lower than that of real Antinite"

Tatsuya erased the psionic wave noise by activating his decomposition magic without using his CAD.

Almost imdiately after that, he pulled the trigger on Trident.

Blood spurted out from the extremities of not only the two soldiers who aid, the

Sorcery Disrupters at Tatsuya, but also from the extremities of the remaining three soldiers of the defense detachnt.

Before Tatsuya, no one else was left standing. As a precaution, he scanned the bodies of all the soldiers of the defense detachnt with his sight, and using decomposition magic, he made all their weapons and explosives unusable.

After that, Tatsuya used magic to destroy the lock on the door of Canopus's cell.

The Trident, which was in his right hand, was put back in its holster. In his left hand, he continued to hold a pistol that he took from one of the previous soldiers he encountered.

Tatsuya opened the door to the cell, but didn't go inside, and remained standing still.

After about ten seconds had passed.

From the far corner, located in a blind spot when viewing from the entrance, a tall figure erged and stood in front of Tatsuya.

The man's chin was smoothly shaved, and his brown hair was neatly combed. There were no signs of exhaustion in his light brown eyes. There wasn't any noticeable

shabbiness, which is usually associated with people who are labeled with the word

prisoner.

Major Benjamin Canopus, I presu?

Tatsuya knew who this man was. It was necessary to ask to sohow start a conversation.

Right. And you are?

I ca at the request of Senator Wyatt Curtis.

From Grand?

Tatsuya was montarily confused by the incomprehensible reply of Canopus, but in the end he decided to interpret this word as an abbreviation for granduncle (cousin).

This may have been respectful treatnt used by the family, but Tatsuya had enough understanding to know that he was referring to Wyatt Curtis.

I was asked to give you this.

Tatsuya handed Canopus the ring handed over to him by the captain of the Virginia.

?

Canopus looked for a few seconds at the emblem engraved on the signet of the ring, after which he put it on the little finger of his left hand.

Certainly this is...

Canopus nodded slightly. The ring seed to be enough to prove whose ssenger Tatsuya was.

The request that I received was to help in your jailbreak.

Understood.

Canopus didn't ask about the reasons and the identity of Tatsuya. Tatsuya decided that Canopus apparently could not go against Wyatt Curtis's directions.

Although Canopus didn't refuse, he remained in place and asked:

If you don't mind, then could we also take, with us, my subordinates who were captured with ?

Accepted. Do you know where they are imprisoned?

I know. I'll guide you.

Good. Here, take this.

Nodding in response to Canopus' offer, Tatsuya handed him the pistol he picked up from the soldier on the roof.

... Are you sure?

It can't be a replacent for a weaponized ard device, but just in case, it's for self-protection.

Canopus preferred a weaponized ard device which combines a CAD and sword in the form of a Japanese katana. After Tatsuya's words, he frowned slightly because of the sense of caution that ca from Tatsuya who might know of his fighting style.

Thanks, this will help.

But in the end, Canopus answered only this, and headed to the stairs.

Canopus led Tatsuya to another prison building, located 200 ters from the previous one.

They weren't attacked along the way. Canopus made an extrely surprised face when he saw that the pinpointed stationary gun turrets were wiped out, but Tatsuya who was walking behind him didn't see this.

The building was about the sa size as the one in which Canopus was imprisoned, but there were many more caras. Apparently, the previous building was intended for senior officers, and this building - for prisoners with a lower status.

Canopus moved along the corridor, from ti to ti looking for signs of soone's presence. Then they got to the stairs and went up to the second floor. In the end, they stopped in front of a door located approximately in the middle of the corridor on the second floor.

Right here.

Silently nodding back at Canopus' words, Tatsuya pulled out a combat knife with knuckle guard.

While swinging the knife down, a force field of decomposition magic was ford on the cutting edge of the knife.

The knife cut through the lock on the door without any resistance.

Molecular divider? No...

Without responding to Canopus' murmur, Tatsuya threw open the door to a room more like a guardhouse than a prison.

Walking past Tatsuya who was holding the door, Canopus cautiously entered the cell.

Commander!

Ralph.

But Canopus' tension eased when he heard a voice coming from the back of the room.

A slender young man with shortly-cut red hair hurriedly ran to Canopus. It was Ralph

Algol, the second lieutenant from the first detachnt of the Stars, who was directly subordinate to Canopus.

Canopus slowly followed toward the young man.

When there was only one step between them, Canopus stopped and held out his hand for a handshake.

But the young man suddenly pushed off the floor and rushed past Canopus.

He tried to attack Tatsuya with a knife in his hand.

However, imdiately after the figure, looking like Ralph Algol, began its rapid advance, a psionic stream rushed into him.

The face of the young man changed.

The physique and hair color remained the sa, but he now had the face of another person.

Gram Demolition!?

Canopus' voice was too loud for a whisper.

The effect of "Gram Demolition," released by Tatsuya, wasn't only limited to removing the masking magic from a person who turned out to be not a young man, but a middle-aged man. The gait and posture of this man also beca sowhat insecure.

Tatsuya lunged with his knife in the direction of the man who had lost the ability to control his body normally due to the psionic flow.

He struck the man in the body, not with the knife blade, but with the titanium alloy knuckle guard embedded in the handle. Having received a blow into the solar plexus, the man's eyes rolled back and collapsed to the floor.

This looks like a mber of the Coalsack squad...

Canopus turned the collapsed man over and frowned, recognizing him.

Tatsuya heard him, but didn't ask for an explanation of what "Coalsack" was.

The situation didn't allow this.

Through the remaining open door, sothing the size of a fist flew into the chamber.

Grenade!?

The cry of Canopus described in a word what Tatsuya saw.

Canopus knocked over the table and lay down behind it.

While Tatsuya threw the grenade away with magic. The lack of magic power activated by the artificial magic calculation area using Flash Cast, in this situation was more than compensated for by the excessive activation speed.

But the enemy was also strong. The grenade thrown away by Tatsuya, flying through the doorway, bounced back inside the cell. And it didn't bounce off the door, because it was open. The fact was that in the doorway an anti-object barrier was deployed.

Tatsuya activated gravity controlled flight magic.

Explosion power is inversely proportional to the cube of distance. Before the explosion, they usually lie on the floor to avoid direct contact with fragnts, but if we take into account the distance to the epicenter of the explosion in the current situation, then the distance from the grenade falling to the floor to the ceiling was greater than the distance that would be if they lay on the floor.

In addition, the process of forming an air cocoon, reducing air resistance during flight, was built into the flight magic spell. This cocoon was strong enough to withstand a headwind relative wind at a speed of several hundred kiloters per hour. Therefore, one could expect that it would serve as a shield against the relatively weak explosion of a hand grenade.

However, Tatsuya's quick wits in this case were not particularly useful.

The grenade exploded. The blast wave wasn't so strong.

Instead of exploding into fragnts, thick black smoke began to disperse in all directions.

"Smoke grenade."

Tatsuya abruptly canceled the flying magic and jumped to the floor. If the enemys goal was to block his field of vision, then remaining near the ceiling, he would be an easy

target.

The results of the smoke analysis were displayed on the screen integrated in the visor of the helt.

... non-lethal...

... There are no paralytic components...

... There are no tear components...

... there is little damage to the respiratory system and the cornea...

"In other words, it's just a smoke screen to block the view."

Tatsuya felt the disappearance of the anti-object shield that blocked the doorway.

The field of view displayed on the visor of the helt automatically switched to infrared mode. However, the silhouettes of people trying to get into the room were not visible.

But Tatsuyas sight at the sa ti caught the image of a person approaching quickly and soundlessly.

The silhouette, represented according to the information data, wore a stealth suit, equalizing the emitted infrared rays with the temperature of the outside air. To ensure visibility, ultrasound was also used. The man seed to be a particularly advanced master, since he didn't wear special glasses for visualizing ultrasound. Just like a bat-man.

But in any case, since this person sent a weapon at us, you just need to counterattack.

Tatsuya repelled the enemy fist with his right hand that was holding a knife, after which he grabbed the enemy by the forehead with his left hand. And he activated vibrational magic, which sent a wave of vibrations through the palm of his left hand.

This wave of vibrations was produced by his artificial magic calculation area, unable to deliver high power. In other words, the injury won't be fatal.

But there was enough strength to cause a concussion.

The bat-man had his legs buckled, and he collapsed to the floor. Given that he

received a blow to the head, such a drop looked strange, but Tatsuya didn't even pay attention to it.

First of all, because he didn't have the ti for it.

Following the fallen man, the next enemy was approaching. More precisely, not even one or two. There were eight of them in total.

"Is that already above my limit?"

Until now, Tatsuya fought so as not to kill the soldiers of the defense detachnt. The work entrusted to him was the rescue of Canopus and the destruction of the Parasites.

He wasn't asked to kill the Arican soldiers who were not infected with Parasites.

Although there was no ban on killing, Tatsuya didn't want to produce unnecessary discontent.

However, this wasn't a priority over accomplishing the mission.

From outside, a cannonball flew into the room. It was an iron core, similar to a shot put competition. However, it flew at Tatsuya in a direct trajectory, and not in an arc, as in competitions. Its speed exceeded 200 km/h. There were no signs of magic working during its flight. It seems that the shell was accelerated by magic only at the ti of the shot.

Sothing flat, reminiscent of a card, was also approaching with a curved trajectory. At first glance, it was just a piece of plastic, but the edges of this card were covered with high-strength resin, sharpened to perfect sharpness. There was no signs of magic visible here too. Probably, at the mont of throwing the card, its speed, angle and rotation were set by magic so that the trajectory of free movent intersected with the given target.

Both of these attacks were designed to make it difficult to detect with magic.

Tatsuya decomposed the ball and the card, and shot the hearts of all eight attackers.

Sensing the intent of murder that ca from the floor in front of him, he threw a knife in that direction .

It was the "bat-man" who, despite having a concussion, tried to shoot Tatsuya with a spring-loaded dart. The knife cut through his throat, causing a mortal wound.

The first man he defeated - the red-haired man - didn't move. It seems that the battle has co to an end.

Causing a faint airflow, Tatsuya blew out the smoke screen into the corridor, which by that mont was still in the cell.

Coalsack was completely destroyed, without being able to attack normally...

With undisguised surprise in his voice Canopus murmured, who stood up on the other side of the toppled over table.

Coalsack is the na of the team of these guys?

Tatsuya asked Canopus, just to keep the conversation going.

Yes. Coalsack Squad from Illegal MAP. One of the best squads for illegal assassinations in the States...

Canopus looked at Tatsuya not with admiration, but with wariness in his eyes.

Assassins shouldn't attack head on, right?

Tatsuya ant that you should not be afraid of assassins attacking directly head on. But this wasn't a manifestation of modesty or, conversely, complacency. This again was only an attempt to keep the conversation going.

Better tell , does the Coalsack squad have only ten people?

This is the only thing that Tatsuya asked. Simply put, he wondered if there were still enemies left.

Yes. There is also another Illegal MAP unit called the Cone Nebula, but their specialization is seduction. It is unlikely that they will be sent in the current situation.

Understood.

Tatsuya scanned the room with "Elental Sight." He did this to make sure there were no other traps or ambushes, but he discovered sothing else.

Major. Under the bed there is soone bound. This, incidentally, is it not your ally?

Canopus rushed to the bed and peered under it.

Ralph!

He pulled a red-haired youth from under the bed - Ralph Algol. But he showed no signs of awakening, even when Canopus tried to shake him. Perhaps he was pumped full of so kind of drug.

Canopus untied Algol and put him on his left shoulder so that the upper half of his body hung down from behind, and he clasped the legs hanging in front of him with his left hand.

It seems that there is nothing that threatens his life, but wouldnt it be better to leave him here?

No, we'll take him with us.

Canopus didn't listen to Tatsuya's advice.

But Tatsuya didn't particularly insist on his words. He didn't try to convince Canopus.

Was the subordinate you wanted to pick up, only this one?

Tatsuya asked instead.

Sorry. There is one more.

Okay. Let's hurry.

Canopus nodded in response to Tatsuya and ran with Algol on his shoulder.

Second Lieutenant, Ariana Lee Shaula, stationed in the female sector of the prison, was saved without any noticeable resistance. Unlike with Second Lieutenant Algol, Second Lieutenant Shaula wasn't bound or unconscious.

Tatsuya suspected it was a trap. But was there a trap or not, in which case his actions would be the sa.

A A-

Let's steal a car. Do you have anything in mind?

It was necessary to sohow get to the place where the air-car was parked. It was possible to take off with a load of three passengers, but mobility was greatly reduced.

It was unclear whether Canopus and Shaula would be able to protect themselves from shelling without CAD, and Algol still hasnt woken up. Therefore, I would like to avoid the departure using the flight function of the Freed Suit.

In front of the armory there is a general purpose vehicle.

Shaula answered the question of Tatsuya.

I saw it from my room window. Here.

Anticipating the question of how do you know this, Shaula tried to lead Tatsuya and Canopus behind her.

Wait. Point out the direction from behind .

But Tatsuya stopped her, overtook, and turned his back to her.

Shaula's face showed that she was confused. She could not understand why, at their first eting, he had been completely open before her, turning his back.

She looked puzzled at Canopus. But Canopus only shook his head and didn't answer.

Canopus guessed the true identity of Tatsuya. Information about Tatsuya was imprinted in his mory in the form of a person who constantly showed vigilance of the highest category. Therefore, he was even worse than Shaula, and didn't understand why Tatsuya now showed such a lack of vigilance.... However, in the case of Tatsuya, this only ant that he could "see" including behind him.

As expected, there were soldiers in front of the armory.

About fifty people. Amount equivalent to one platoon. Too much for ordinary security.

Obviously, they were waiting for Tatsuya and those whom he led. Judging by what he

"saw," among them were even so quite powerful magicians.

They were on the other side of the building and were not visible with physical vision.

However, not only Tatsuya saw them, but they also noticed Tatsuya's group. The entire platoon of soldiers simultaneously aid their gun barrels forward.

The weapon of each of them wasn't just a simple rifle, but a weaponized-ard device.

The unfolding activation sequence belonged to the magic of the movent system called "Bend Trajectory." This magic bends the trajectory of a flying object once. In

other words, it's bending magic. The main scope of application is shooting at enemies hiding behind obstacles.

Tatsuya pulled out Trident and pulled the trigger.

Bullets fired from the weaponized-ard devices simultaneously with the activation of Tatsuya's magic.

Bullets flew straight without bending the arc. This was the result of Tatsuya activating

"Gram Dispersion" by targeting the magic sequence of Bend Trajectory which activated in an area that lies within 100 ters in front of them.

These weaponized-ard devices didn't allow for automatic firing. Even if the CAD

provided a certain level of automation, the processing speed of the magicians using it didn't allow for them to keep up with this pace. In other words, all of the fired bullets flew straight, and fell into the void. The soldiers began to withdraw the following activation sequence.

But Tatsuya's next magic activated faster.

Blood spurted from the joints of the right foot of half of the fifty soldiers, and with a slight ti lag the sa thing happened with the remaining half. The resulting damage caused everyone to lose their balance. And a mont later the sa thing happened with their left feet, and as a result, everyone simultaneously fell to the ground.

After that, in addition to everything, he made holes in their hands, which completely deprived the entire platoon of the defense detachnt from combat readiness.

Previously, Tatsuya was already forced to abandon non-fatal attacks once, but now he didn't do the sa, because he thought again about the fact that the destruction of a whole platoon could have undesirable consequences.

Since the opponents were magicians, there remained the risk of a counterattack, even if they could not move their limbs. But if this happens, then Tatsuya was ready to beco serious again. Not in the sense that he was ready to take a hit to himself, but in the sense that he was ready to kill if they ended up counterattacking.

After making sure that the guards were temporarily neutralized, Tatsuya ran around the corner of the building.

Canopus and Shaula followed him with tense faces. For the two officers from the Stars elite, Tatsuyas fighting power seed unimaginable.

Molecular Divider... Javelin?

Shaula muttered. Obviously, she confused the magic of Tatsuya's partial decomposition with the magic, Molecular Divider Javelin used by First Lieutenant Zoe Spica from the fourth unit of the Stars. The effects of these two magics were indeed quite similar.

Under the dark evening sky, when even in the west there were no signs of the sun, Tatsuya and his three companions ran to the general purpose car. Canopus sat in the driver's seat. Behind him, sat Shaula, and still not awake Algol, was seated next to her.

Tatsuya took weapons from several nearby soldiers and stood next to the front passenger seat door.

Canopus looked at Tatsuya with suspicion, trying to look at him to urgently take his place, but he took out Trident and went to the armory.

"... The absence of people is confird."

There was no one inside the warehouse.

"... Getting information about the material of the object."

In the case of disassembling weapons or military equipnt into parts, first you need to identify the information about the chanical structure of the target object. The more complex and larger the object, the more information data is there.

When using "Regrowth," in addition to the information about the structure of an object, information about the materials that make up the object is also needed.

However, in the case of "Mist Dispersion," decomposing an object to the level of chemical elents, processing is possible even with the presence of only information about the materials that make up the object. Regardless of the size and chanical complexity of the object. In the case of the "decomposition" of a large-scale object, Tatsuya will have less load when decomposing an object into chemical elents than when disassembling it into spare parts.

Tatsuya activated Mist Dispersion, choosing as a single target the entire armory depot and all the weapons stored in it.

The contours of the three-story building without windows floated...

And the next mont the building disappeared, as if it were an illusion.

The remains of the armory depot dispersed in the form of dust swirling in the wind.

Seeing an approaching cloud of dust, Shaula hastily closed the window next to where she was sitting in the car.

Tatsuya quickly got into the passenger seat and said to Canopus, who was staring at him with round eyes from being astonished at what he just did.

Drive.

In front of the gate leading out of the prison complex, they were waiting for about the sa number of soldiers as there was in front of the armory depot.

But Tatsuya's reaction this ti was different.

He slowly pulled out a grenade he "confiscated" from the soldiers in front of the armory depot.

Hey, what are you doing?!

Ignoring the nervous Canopus, Tatsuya opened the window and pulled the clip out of the grenade. The handling of this type of weapon was exactly the sa as 100 years ago.

?

The grenade was thrown with his right hand, and was accelerated by magic and flew straight towards the line of soldiers who stood in their way.

The enemy magician tried to influence the trajectory of the grenade, but Tatsuya easily

decomposed the magic sequence of their magic, Vector Reversal, which they used to try and stop the grenade.

An important principle when using magic is the rule that one and the sa object or phenonon cannot be simultaneously affected by several different magics. If you violate this rule, then in most cases the required force of interference in the phenonon will increase, which ends up increasing the load on the magician. In addition to this, only one type of magic will work successfully. In the worst case scenario, all attempts to apply magic to the object will fail.

This principle is strictly respected in organized combat groups such as the regular army.

Therefore, in this case, only one magician tried to stop the approach of the grenade with magic.

And his magic was neutralized. Although such an unexpected developnt of events caused confusion, but he was prepared enough to try again to stop the grenade with the sa magic.

But this one extra ti was the last.

The second "Vector Reversal" was neutralized by Tatsuya, and the grenade reached the area above the heads of the soldiers.

But the problem didn't end with one grenade.

Tatsuya picked up four grenades when he was in front of the armory depot. And he threw all four grenades one after another at the soldiers who stood in a line opposite the gate to block their escape path.

The grenades successfully exploded three ters above the heads of the guards.

Shrapnel rained down on the soldiers from above.

To protect themselves from the shrapnel, they crouched, raising their hands above their heads.

The field of view of the soldiers shifted from the car carrying Tatsuya and the others.

When they looked up at the sound of the horn, the car that had just seed small due to range was already right in front of them.

The guards, who where lined up in a row, reflexively jumped out of the way of the fleeing car.

The line was built from about a quarter of the soldiers gathered at the gates.

The remaining three quarters rained down a hail of bullets on to the car.

However, this stolen car, although it was a general purpose vehicle, was actually an armored military vehicle. In addition, to the fired bullets, only about 10% of them reached the targeted vehicle. In other words, the shooting from the guards didn't cause significant enough damage that could stop the vehicle.

The car with Canopus behind the wheel passed through the gates (which were the sa gates where Tatsuya decomposed a pass-through iron door), thus escaping the prison complex.

After escaping from the Midway Prison complex, they were not pursued by either ground equipnt or helicopters. Of course, the Arican army didn't overlook the invasion and jailbreak. Its just that at the mont they were recovering from their losses and were regrouping.

Stop here.

Seeing the air-car, Tatsuya asked Canopus to stop the car.

Taking the place of the driver of the air-car, he left the door open and shouted to Canopus and Shaula:

Get in.

These two weren't frozen in confusion. Canopus pulled Algol from the back seat, putting him on his shoulder and ran to the air-car.

Shaula climbed into the back seat of the air-car and helped put Algol inside.

Its okay if you don't close the doors.

Nodding in response to Tatsuyas advice, Canopus darted around the SUV (Sports Utility Vehicle)-like vehicle and sat in the front passenger seat.

Tatsuya pressed a button and all four doors closed simultaneously.

What is this? An amphibious vehicle?

Canopus asked instinctively, examining the interior of the car. Its windows were affixed and unopened, and in the place where ordinary cars had a trunk, equipnt of unknown purpose was installed.

No.

Tatsuya answered and activated the flight magic.

This is a flying car.

Canopus swallowed, and Shaula scread softly. With such background noise, Tatsuya sharply raised the air-car into the air.

A notification about their return ca from Mr. Shibas air-car.

After the words of the signalman on the bridge, there was a noise of whispering.

Thirty minutes after departure... that is, it took 20 minutes directly to work? Do we know what damage was done to Midway Prison?

Colonel Michael Curtis, captain of the nuclear submarine carrier Virginia, asked the intelligence officer.

Anti-ship, anti-aircraft and anti-personnel gun crews completely destroyed. The weapons warehouse also completely disappeared...

The scouts reacted so quickly because Captain Curtis had previously ordered information to be collected at Midway Prison.

Are the prison buildings themselves intact?

The captain asked the intelligence officer in a slightly surprised tone.

No serious damage was noticed.

"This is a surprisingly good result..."

Captain Curtis thought so at first, but quickly changed his mind.

"Such limited damage can be interpreted as proof that the attacker could afford it."

"Midway is not only a military prison, but also a supply base, going as an addition to Pearl and Hers."

"In just 20 minutes, and given that he restrained himself - this is a complete defeat..."

"... Tatsuya. If you werent a guest of Uncle, and we would have to fight with you, then all the power of Virginia wouldn't overco you, and we would eventually go to the bottom."

"I would prefer to continue to have a good relationship with you."

Prepare for a quick ascent. Prepare the take-off deck for the arrival of the air-car. And report this to Mr. Shibata.

Captain Curtis hid his concern in the depths of his heart, and gave crew mbers orders to play a part in this mission.

About seven minutes have passed since the return signal was sent. In the sky above the sea around the surfaced Virginia, an air-car silhouette appeared.

Out of the dark night sea floated the gigantic hull of the Virginia. The air-car didn't circle around, but simply hovered in the sky during a flight over this nuclear aircraft carrier.

The outer shell of the Virginia parted, exposing the flight deck.

The air-car descended vertically and landed silently on the flight deck.

Crew mbers ran over to them.

Canopus was the first to leave the aircraft through the door of the front passenger seat,

and after him, Shaula through the rear right door.

Canopus pulled the unconscious Algol out of the car. The running crew mbers helped him and laid Algol on a stretcher.

Only after that did Tatsuya leave the air-car.

For starters, congratulations on the successful completion of the first phase of the mission.

Katsushige turned to Tatsuya, who ca out from behind the back of the team mbers who had already started refueling (charging ultra-high capacitors) of the air-car.

Thank you.

Raising the visor of his helt, Tatsuya answered Katsushige's congratulations.

You're going to leave again soon, right? Leave the report to the main house to .

Thanks.

Tatsuya bowed slightly in response to Katsushige's suggestion.

If possible, could you please convey a ssage about the rescue of Major Canopus to Miyakijima?

Raising his head, Tatsuya asked Katsushige.

Unfortunately that isn't possible. There is currently no person on Miyakijima capable of receiving telepathic ssages.

During this operation, all communication with the main house was carried out using the special abilities of telepaths. There were only a few subordinates in the Yotsuba family with telepathic abilities that allowed them to communicate at such a great distance, and all of them were directly subordinate to the head of the family. In this case, one of such valuable employees was temporarily handed over to Katsushige by the main house.

Okay.

In the ssage that will be sent to the main house, I will add a request to relay the

ssage to Miyakijima.

Tatsuya's request wasn't feasible, but in return Katsushige promised to remind the main house to let Miyuki and Lina know the news.

Charging the air-car was pretty fast. Less than ten minutes after the landing, Tatsuya again lifted the car into the air.

A telepathic communication session with the main house took place imdiately after his departure.

The news of the rescue of Canopus was imdiately transmitted by the main house to Miyakijima.

Imdiately after receiving reports of the attack on Midway, a bustle began at Pearl & Hers Base in preparation for sending soldiers.

The original target was a counter-offensive against the enemies who attacked Midway Prison Base.

However, in a subsequent report it was said that the attackers had abducted Major Canopus and Second Lieutenants Algol and Shaula, after which they fled in a small-sized aircraft. Therefore, the goal of sending fighters and destroyers with anti-aircraft and anti-submarine weapons changed to a pursuit of the offenders.

While all the soldiers of the base (both sent and remaining) were very busy with preparations, Raymond (civilian) visited Minoru, who is in a separate room of the dical center allocated for Minami.

Was it Tatsuya who attacked Midway?

Although this topic (preparation for the operation) wasn't very suitable for a friendly conversation, Raymond clearly showed unhealthy interest in this.

Most likely.

Minoru answered him.

Only Tatsuya-san knows how to hide traces of magic perfectly.

You an, besides you?

My abilities are just the art of deception. I can't hide as skillfully as Tatsuya-san does.

Minoru with a serious face shook his head in response to Raymond's joke.

I see.

With a distressed face, Raymond answered.

Co on do not talk about it.

However, he quickly regained his usual cheerful face. The current situation was rather chaotic, but it developed clearly as the "Seven Sages"

Raymond S. Clark liked.

"It appears that major Antares and Lieutenant Sargas were also sent to intercept on the destroyer Chevalier." ...Or what's it's na?" "Shaurma"?

Minoru, it seed, wasn't at all interested in which na was correct, but Raymond could not leave this question open, so he took out a mobile terminal and sent a search request.

Yeah, all the sa, the Chevalier. And along with it, the Shangri-La will leave the port. It seems that they are going to send more than ten fighter class aircrafts "Horned Owls" [Eagle Owls].

Really!?

The Shangri-La is an aircraft carrier assigned to the port of Pearl & Hers Base. It is the "runway" of this base. The Horned Owls, code-nad F-141, is the main strike force of the Shangri-La aircraft carrier. These are multi-purpose combat aircrafts with superior stealth system effectiveness.

In total, there were 60 Horned Owls on the Shangri-La. This ans that more than one-sixth of them will be sent. Therefore, Minoru's surprise was natural.

That alone says that Tatsuya was considered dangerous. In my opinion, this is a reasonable decision.

Minoru didn't argue with these words of Raymond. Minoru fought with Tatsuya only in one-on-one magic battles. But it was thanks to a direct encounter with him that he realized that the true value of Tatsuya manifests itself at a tactical level and higher.

What just happened on Midway Island was direct evidence of this. Tatsuya was a threat that could destroy a military base without even using his Strategic-Class magic.

Therefore, the reaction of the USNA army should not be considered an exaggeration.

I don't think that this base will be able to delay Tatsuya... Oh, it seems that Chevalier and Shangri-La left the port. Major Antares and Lieutenant Sargas are moving away.

The port wasn't visible from the window of the infirmary window, so Raymond, apparently, sensed this through a channel connecting the Parasites.

Minoru, in my opinion, now is the ti.

Raymond's phrase was unsaid.

For what?

Although Minoru asked, he sohow understood what Raymond wanted to say.

If Tatsuya gets here, this ti you won't be able to escape. You're not going to fight him again, are you? So now is your chance. Now only Lieutenant Spica is left at this base.

Raymond was telling the truth.

On this surface base - an artificial island - he cant hide. No matter where he hides, he cannot escape from Tatsuya's "sight". Both Parade and Kimon Tonko have their limitations, and won't be particularly useful in this situation. If he was going to continue to run away, there was no choice but to go to sea.

...It's useless.

But Minoru shook his head helplessly.

Minami-san can't move now.

Minami is still recovering from the damage caused by the excessive use of magic that occurred the other day. The fact that she spends most of the day in a dream is the protective function of the body, which calms the violence of the, magic calculation area

by suppressing conscious activity and, thereby, reducing the stimulation of the subconscious region. If any irritating factor begins to act on it from outside, then consciousness will forcefully wake up, which is highly likely to serve as a trigger for overheating the magic calculation area.

So you're the only who need to escape, Minoru. As long as you stay alive, you will always have a chance to get your girlfriend back.

Minoru blinked his eyes in surprise.

Raymond's behavior this ti wasn't as cynical as usual when he looked at everything around him as an interesting show. It seed to Minoru that for so reason, Raymond was sincerely worried about him and Minami.

No... after all, it's impossible.

But Minoru didn't agree with Raymond's proposal.

He felt that if he parted with Minami now, he would never be able to even get close to her again. Both Tatsuya and Miyuki are not such irrational opponents. They will no longer give him a chance to take advantage of.

And above all, he absolutely didn't want to part with Minami.

But not because he wanted to cure her. And not because he wanted to take responsibility for the deterioration of her condition. In truth, he was simply attached to her.

Minoru...

Raymond no longer said anything that could pass as appeals to escape. Whether he changed himself, or it was a temporary whim, but it seems that he sincerely worried about Minoru.

...Good. So I'll go with you.

What!? No, that won't do!

Raymond's words shocked Minoru.

Raymond. By the way, it is you yourself who have to run! If Tatsuya-san catches you,

then the Dion Project will be considered a Parasite conspiracy!

There was no direct connection between the Parasites and the Dion Project. However, Tatsuya would easily be able to distort the truth in order to destroy the conspiracies directed against him. Minoru felt a certain sense of fear from Tatsuya, confirming that he was able to do sothing like that.

If sothing like this happens, then it will be a problem for not only you and your father. This could escalate into a question of confidence in Arica, which, in turn, will disrupt the world order!

Minoru has always been driven by personal feelings. For this reason, he didn't regret that he had gone astray... that he had ceased to be a man. But he didn't want to create problems for society.

Well, good. That will be interesting too.

Raymond had an innocent smile on his face. Such a face ant that he perfectly understood what he had said to Minoru.

Raymond!

I'm not a human being either. I dont care what will happen to the human world. The truth is that the Dion project was actually a conspiracy at the national level. So, if Arica is subjected to international criticism, then they're right.

But...

Minoru.

After breaking an objection to Minoru, Raymond grinned.

Instead of observing the affairs of states and the world as a whole, I would rather like to see what future awaits you.

Minoru's eyes widened when he heard these unexpected words from Raymond.

You two... how could I put it better... so romantic. You want to watch more than any pair of films. In truth, Im even envious.

...

So I want to know how your story ends. And I want this story to have a happy ending.

Raymond smiled shyly.

Minoru, in order to eventually arrive at a happy ending, you must escape now.

Raymond...

Raymond, who organized the second coming of the Parasites into this world by skillfully manipulating false information.

And Minoru, casting aside his humanity, killing his beloved grandfather, and causing a lot of chaos.

Despite such a backstory from these two, an atmosphere of kindness and understanding has now developed between them.

... However, in this world there is not only kindness.

That would be problematic.

Minoru and Raymond spun around at that voice and the sound of a door swinging open.

They were so carried away with their conversation that their attention didn't notice anything but themselves.

Therefore, they had the imprudence not to notice the approach of their fellow parasite.

They turned to see Zoe Spica holding up the index finger of her right hand.

Blood spurted.

Minoru!

The Molecular Divider Javelin pierced Minorus chest at the very mont the door opened.

The wound is non-fatal.

What are you...!?

Spica looked coldly at Raymond, who had faltered.

Be silent.

...!

We must not allow damage to the States. You three should leave this place imdiately.

Why...?

Minoru asked in a pained voice, holding onto his chest and bending over.

Kudou Minoru. Raymond Clark. If the Japanese get evidence that our army has harbored you

who are Parasites, then this will beco an unfavorable diplomatic compromising evidence against the States.

... Minami-san still needs a break. And this happened to her because of your battle.

If you had not co here, this wouldn't have happened at all.

Spica rejected Minorus protest. Then she signaled to the soldiers waiting behind her.

Four soldiers burst into the room of the dical room. They aid their weapons at Minoru, Raymond, and Minami.

We won't kill you if you obediently follow us.

... We will leave, but we will do it ourselves.

Minoru straightened up. His voice was no longer painful, and there was no trace of a wound on his chest when he removed his hand.

You...!?

Noticing the disappearance of the wound, Spica in a hurry tried to activate magic.

However, she was unable to do anything.

She couldn't even scream.

Spica's body burst into flas.

The soldier's bodies bursting into the room also ignited.

The magic "Jintai Hakka" from the release system.

It neutralizes the magical protection of the human body, forcibly extracts electrons from the molecules of the cells of the body, and releases them from the body. It is called "Jintai Hakka," because an electric discharge passing through the skin looks like a phenonon of spontaneous combustion of the human body. However, in fact, this is terrible magic, destroying cells at the molecular level, depriving them of the electrons used in inter-molecular bonds.

Minorus magic activation speed was higher than Spicas activation speed and the speed at which well-trained soldiers would pull the trigger.

The fire didn't spread throughout the room. He didnt hurt either Minamis bed or Minami herself.

Minoru skillfully controlled the electrical discharge created by his Jintai Hakka.

Spica and four soldiers disappeared from this world in just a few monts.

From the "ashes" arouse the "parasite." The true body of the "parasite" that lived in Spica.

Minoru easily caught it and placed it inside himself.

... Raymond.

Minoru spoke to Raymond in a emotionless voice.

Y-yes?

Apparently, I too can no longer stay here. Let's run away together.

...Good.

Raymond answered with such a face, as if he had just comprehended what had happened.

Can you wait a bit in the hallway?

...Okay.

Said Raymond, and left the room.

Closing the door, Raymond turned anxiously, and before the door closed, he managed to see Minoru, with a sad face standing next to Minami's bed.

This evening, at Pearl & Hers Base, there were many fiery flashes that resembled fireworks.

The number of these outbreaks was equal to the number of human lives.

Minoru and Raymond left the Pearl & Hers base on the Coral transport ship, fearfully subjugating the survivors from the base.

Major Antares and First Lieutenant Sargas, who went to sea on the Chevalier destroyer, learned about the death of First Lieutenant Spica in almost real ti.

Commander...

Useless. Yes and pointless.

Antares answered the unsaid question of Sargas.

Sargas didn't argue with this decision. He himself knew that it was useless and pointless, and therefore didn't say the rest of the phrase let's go back?.

The attacker on Midway also could not be ignored. And it wasn't just the honor of the army at stake. The combat magician, who alone stord Midway by storm, even by his already demonstrated abilities, can be considered a threat that must be dealt with imdiately. And if we assu that this is the sa Strategic-Class Magician that caused "Scorched Halloween," then he should be dealt with all the more. In such a situation, their language didn't turn to say that you need to cancel the operation and return to the Pearl & Hers base.

Plus, First Lieutenant Spica is already dead. The true body that dwelt in her was supposed to escape and itself would soon follow them. That is how the parasites nature. And they cant do anything now.

... If they knew that Spica wasn't the only victim, then they would imdiately ask the

captain to turn around and move back. They would undoubtedly have tried to stop the catastrophe that had struck Pearl & Hers Base.

However, neither Antares nor Sargas had the sa vision as Tatsuya or Minoru.

Perhaps they would have noticed the death-spreading magic of Minoru if they concentrated their magical perceptions in the direction behind them, but all their attention was directed west - towards Midway.

But disaster awaited them not only from behind.

About 8 minutes after re-deploying from the Virginia.

Tatsuya encountered the enemy about 100 kiloters west of the Pearl and Hers Atoll.

Fighters rging with darkness flew by. If these were ordinary aircraft, then the distance over which they flew would be considered abnormal approach.

They were not displayed on the air-car radar. It looks like the adversary also had an excellent stealth system.

Masking the electromagnetic waves of the air-car also worked with visible light, but it didn't provide perfect transparency. From the point of view of an outside observer, the car was visible as flying in a kind of smokescreen, depending on the weather and light.

For example, in the current clear night sky it should have been seen as a kind of foggy cloud of ultramarine color. If the pilots were sufficiently big-eyed, then with such an approach, they should have noticed sothing.

Tatsuya turned on a radio transmitter he borrowed from the Virginia. It showed the frequencies used by the USNA Navy. Tatsuya found the frequency at which the pilots spoke to each other.

"UFO?"

From the speaker phrases with the word "UFO" were heard. Tatsuya inclined his head ntally, but then realized that it was a question of the air-car driven by him. Shrouded in fog and not emitting heat waves (more precisely, it emitted infrared rays, but their

frequency coincided with the frequency of the atmospheric air temperature), the air-car could really be called a UFO - an Unidentified Flying Object.

However, this wasn't the case when one could happily admire. If the aircraft of the Arican army associated the car with the expression "UFO
