'Okay… wow.' My thoughts trailed as I watched from my height.
The thousands of troops that surrounded the Outgroup were basic Golems, and while their numbers were a bit worriso, they shouldn't have been too much of a problem for the group.
'They look tired, though. Maybe that's why they look so distraught. It's a good thing I flew here as fast as I could.'
My body was coated in Aether, allowing to achieve the regular feats of Magic without worrying about any dampening effects. Thanks to Light Magic, I was also able to swiftly get here.
I would have teleported, but my Arcanas couldn't directly interfere with the laws of this world. Their frequency was still tuned to that of my old world. To change that, I'd have to improve the Arcana formula.
'That'll take ti and energy…' And while I would eventually have to do that, if I wanted to return ho, now wasn't the ti.
eaglesnovɐ1,сoМ That ant most of the Arcanas in my possession weren't going to be very useful at the mont.
'Not like I need them, though.' A smile crept up on my face.
>WHOOOOOOOOSSSSHHHHHH!!!<
I watched the several hundred Golems floating in the air as they whirred and turned all their focus on . It seed they would be attacking very soon.
'I should also end things fast.' Returning my gaze to the Outgroup, I noticed Ciel was in the middle of imnse concentration.
Perhaps she was gathering enough energy to teleport everyone.
'Fair enough. I'll just help them out until they make their escape.'
"[Grand Safe Haven]"
In a flash, a golden do surrounded the whole group, encasing them in its glow. With it, none of the Golems would be able to penetrate it.
The only issue would be the Automaton, but… it seed its focus was on . Sothing about its platinum body and pristine design made it look familiar to , but I dismissed the thought instantly.
The Golems in the sky were already charging towards .
"[Storm Of Lightning Blades]"
In an instant, I rained down blue-coloured blades that were made with lightning energy. They descended upon the tal Golems, sending them into shock, as well as piercing their most vital points—all in an instant.
>BZZZTTTZZZZ<
I could hear the sounds of their Magic Circuits frying, and watching so many tal puppets dance around added a certain thrill to it.
'And that's a wrap.' I smiled, looking at the enemies that remained.
There were a few thousand left, and then there was the one who appeared to be the leader, which was the Automaton. It really resembled the Gawain I had designed back in my original world, but…
"What is your identity? Depending on your affiliation, I shall not engage." The Automaton finally spoke to , its tone warbling exactly as Gawain's usually did.
I felt like my Gawain's tone was clearer, and this one's pitch was a bit off—less natural than I would have preferred—but they were certainly similar.
"And what would you do if I said I was with them?" I grinned nacingly.
It was possible that the Automaton was stalling for ti until more backup arrived, so I had to remain vigilant. However, this was my first conversation with soone who could be considered an enemy.
Perhaps I could learn one or two things from it.
"Then, I shall eliminate you. Gawain, The Platinum Knight Of Carnage, declares it."
'E-eh…?'
It really was Gawain!
My eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when I heard him introduce himself. So this world had a Gawain too, and while its design was a bit different from mine, it had the sa Aesthetic.
How could I have been mistaken? Well…
"Do you understand now? You realize who you're crossing now, don't you? If you know what's best for you, then introduce your—"
"Sorry, but are there other Gawains like you?" I asked, itching my head a little.
"What?!"
"I an… you're Gawain, The Platinum Knight Of Carnage, right? Are there like… other Gawains with other different titles?"
My major fear was that Jared had managed to mass produce Gawain. If this was only one of the various versions of the Ultimate Automaton, and the others were actually running around causing havoc, then… that would suck.
It would be no wonder this world was like that.
"What in the world are you talking about? I am the Ultimate Automaton, made by Lord Jared himself. How dare you drag a masterpiece like to such a low estate?"
Ah, it seed I was mistaken once again. This really was the Ultimate Automaton. The Gawain I built as a masterpiece.
'But… really?' No, maybe this world's Jared simply programd this Gawain to think that way.
Soone as diabolical as the evil version of myself could simply employ such a strategy to throw his enemies off. Yes, that could indeed be the case.
'Or am I overthinking this?' I glanced at the Outgroup, specifically Neron, for advice.
They knew this world much better than I did. Besides, if anyone could tell more about this reality's Jared, it would be them.
'It's better than just assuming.'
Neron nodded at in confirmation, his eyes depicting absolute seriousness. Once I saw it, I instantly knew that the Automaton must have been telling the truth this whole ti.
It had just been who found it difficult to believe.
'Can you bla , though? I should have already expected this, but… I didn't think it would be to this extent.'
It seed I had worried for nothing—at least, in terms of this battle.
"Gawain, I am on the side of the Outers. In essence, I am your ene—"
Before I could complete my statent, the Automaton lunged at with full veracity. It appeared like he wanted to end himself.
But, well, that would be quite a problem. It wasn't because of anything, other than the simple thing I observed.
The thing that made doubt this thing's authenticity.
'It's too weak!'
