Before the sun completely rose, dyeing the dark sky in golden yellow, the surrounding ta Energy stirred as batches of tagen took off from the ground up to the sky. Even from afar, one could see the tagen of the three Factions going to the sa destination; the Moon that was about to be hidden.
Leading the charge was none other than the Alliance Head, Nysia aboard her Ultimate tagen, Sanguine Aegis. Drones with caras were all released to continue broadcasting the Operation. It was even improved so that it could follow us outside the World of ta's atmosphere.
Even if they beca alerted with what we're going to do, they would surely face us head-on. They still have the nurical advantage after all.
Following behind Nysia was the Alliance Guardian, Liam, aboard his Ultimate tagen, Majestic Mammoth and the Alliance Matriarch, Lyra aboard her Ultimate tagen, Moonlit Nightmother.
They're the three legendary Mythic-rank of days old. With Julian out of the picture and Lucas being only revealed recently, the three of them held the highest prestige.
Although my na was also well-known, it's not actually because of my strength or being one of the new Mythic-ranks. It was because of my status as Nysia's husband.
I didn't have any broadcasted battle after all. No matter which world, people wanted to see it from their own eyes before they totally believed sothing.
Apart from the Pilots under or those who've worked with , the citizens had no idea of my prowess.
With the three figureheads leading the charge, the cheering continued and beca even more ear-tearing.
However, that's not the end of it, under their eyes, more Ultimate tagen followed after the three.
The three Heroes with their Ultimate tagens positioned themselves behind the three. Kazeyoshi's Crescent Hurricane, Amry's Crimson Valkyrie and Matthew's Silent Behemoth vibrantly shone as they showcased their own abilities.
Kazeyoshi and Amry's relationship continued to improve and they even shared a room last night. Whether they did it or not, that's not my place to pry. Matthew, on the other hand, hadn't even thought about things like that. When I told him that Leianne beca my Companion, he went and congratulated her by contacting her communicator.
I guess Leianne's guess about him being extrely loyal was true. According to Matthew, from what I managed to co up with in his short sentences or replies, Leianne made sure that he wouldn't be given missions that went against his moral code.
In any case, it's not like I'm feeling guilty from taking Leianne as my Companion, I'm just curious if he held so hidden feelings towards her. However, throughout our conversation, I picked up that there's soone back on Earth that he ntioned through his short sentences. It was another rogue Hero from their country.
To not be late to the party, I also started my take-off to follow after them using my own Ultimate tagen, the White Knight.
Although it was supposed to be retrofitted to complent my ability, Energy Control, the Researchers were baffled on what kind of features they would add to it. In the end, they settled on using more regenium and upgrading its engine to accommodate higher Energy Output which led to the 600% maximum output. It's also a light armored type giving it the speed even faster than Kazeyoshi's Crescent Hurricane when he's not fully utilizing his Aerokinesis.
Flying past the Heroes, I settled myself next to Nysia's Sanguine Aegis. Upon seeing , Nysia's communication channel opened and showed the joyful expression she currently had. Totally unlike how she carried herself in front of the City's residents earlier.
To complete our lineup, another Ultimate tagen showed up along with a group of Specialized tagen following closely behind.
The Ultimate tagen was what I was using before. The Black Mist.
With Leianne's consent, I passed the Ultimate tagen for Erin to use. When I passed it to her, the girl was too overjoyed that she jumped into my embrace and showered with kisses. That's how fond she was about that tagen that truly fitted her abilities.
And obviously, the group of Specialized tagens was being piloted by my Transcendent Companions; Yuko, Zerina, Irja and Avelin. My new Companions last night who hadn't reached Transcendence yet; Leianne, Lunaria, Elise and Dannae, placed themselves among the Aegis Battalion and the Core Pilots. They'll be leading them alongside Lexie.
The other three who were unfamiliar with tagens and found the few hours not enough to familiarize themselves with it; Reinys, Noelle and Caila, chose to stay behind.
However, because I want them to experience what will happen, I had them ride with . At the mont, the three were behind , admiring the clear and bright interior of the White Knight's cockpit.
Old Man Reol also joined using the repaired Ultimate Darkgen from the Dark World Transcendent Avelin killed.
Unlike the view from yesterday where the Darkgens were like rain pouring down from the sky, it now looked like it was reversed as the sky in the World of ta beca filled with flying tagen.
Although I only ca up with the plan to attack yesterday, Liam and Lyra followed through and managed to assemble their Faction's Core Pilots. Elise also went to Eldur and the Order of the Light Cradle's headquarters located in it, gathering every Rank S and above Pilots.
Even if I have Dannae's gun, it's specifically for the Transcendents, we still need the Core Pilots to clean up the regular Darkgens and Specialized Darkgens that would be able to survive it.
Apart from the denizens of the World of ta, Krond, along with a group of Pentacoms would also join us once we're out of the World of ta's atmosphere. They would be coming from their settlent and the Mothership that were steered away.

"Attack!" Without any other instruction, Nysia shouted through the open communication channel the signal.
At the mont, we're floating above the moon, looking down at the defenses set up by the Dark World.
Apart from the defense chanisms they set up that were all derived from the World of ta and Anzeans' technology, they also have various Formations such as traps and Energy Barriers set up across the Moon's surface.
Looking down from below, most of their Mortal Ranks were already manning up the defensive weapons installed and started firing at us.
Upon seeing that, Nysia commanded every Core Pilot whose specialty was long-range attacks to return fire.
Among my Companions, Irja, inside a purple Specialized tagen stepped up and led the attacks by aiming the two cannons atop its shoulder downwards. In less than a second, colorful rounds of energy bullets rained down the defensive weapons she aid at.
Following her example, the long-ranged tagens channeled their abilities to their tagens, a wide array of Energy and Physical attacks flooded the surface of the moon. In less than a minute, the Energy Barrier that was weakening their attacks broke like glass.
Perhaps if it was still being seen at the surface, they'll notice that the moon hovering above the world's surface was now being bombarded resulting in nurous colorful explosions.
After today, the moon that illuminates their dark night will not be the sa anymore.
"Daisuke. I can't spot any Transcendents. Are they hiding?" When her face once again appeared on the screen, Nysia had her brows furrowed. Being the one at the forefront, she's keeping her eye out on the enemies' movents and not seeing any of our supposed enemies puzzled her.
Well, I'm the sa. I wouldn't be able to fire the gun if they didn't show themselves.
Fortunately, I already picked up where the Portal was. Given that it still continued to ooze out Dark Energy which spread throughout the surface of the moon, it was easy to spot. Moreover, it was in the middle of the stronghold they built.
"Most likely but with here, hiding is useless. They're inside a Concealnt Formation, Nysia. Follow and I'll show you. Also tell the others to spread out, once we started, so would surely be able to escape."
By hiding at this mont, they're most likely thinking of ambushing us. For them to bring out that kind of Formation that was too hard to detect even for a Rank 1 Transcendent at their later stages, they surely prepared themselves for this occasion.
Too bad for them, I am a living Energy Fluctuation Detector. As long as it entered the range of my senses, I will be able to pick up the irregularities.
"Daisuke. How did you detect them?" Curious at my answer, Reinys wondered.
As soon as we left the atmosphere of the world, all three of them plastered their eyes at the boundless expanse of outer space. And when I steered the tagen to the moon, they also started observing what was being shown on my screen.
"You all know my ability right? My Transcendent Senses and Adaptability detected a faint fluctuation of energy right there." I pointed to a seemingly empty space behind the enormous dod structure that was housing the Portal.
The Portal should be the place they had to secure, however, aside from those Darkgens taking off to engage the tagens above, it looked too defenseless.
Now, I don't know if they're baiting us to attack it or they're just too confident of their Concealnt Formation.
Either way, bait or not, we needed to land there and close that Portal.
And although I am already sowhat confident with just us two, I also called Erin to join us which made the girl increasingly excited. She couldn't wait to test the prowess of her tagen after all.
Before leaving our current position, I looked around to check on the current state of the battlefield.
Due to the continuous bombardnts of the long-ranged tagens, those manning the defense installnts started shooting back to provide cover fire for those brave Darkgens who flew out of the Moon to stop the long-ranged tagen.
However, before they could even launch a counterattack, the Aegis Battalion led by Lexie and my four Companions blocked them.
With every burst of Energy, their abilities would be unleashed. Especially Lunaria, being this close to the Moon, her ability was in full effect that if previously she was having a hard ti against 15 Specialized Darkgens, she's cutting them down as easily as slicing a cake.
Leaving that part to the Aegis Battalion, Yuko then brought Avelin and Zerina with her as they plunged down to the moon's surface. With their Pillar Guardians appearing at their side, they ordered them to neutralize the defense chanisms and formations, aiding those fighting above
Upon seeing three Specialized tagens landing without any problem, the Core Pilots who were still hesitating followed suit.
Copying what the Darkbugs did yesterday, Specialized tagens continuously dropped down, gradually changing the battlefield from space to the surface of the moon.
