Part 2

“Haah!”

…How much time had passed since then?

We continued to fight the seemingly endless army of mechanical knights.

Among them, Yuuya-san used a special weapon to take down the elite mechanical knights and the red mechanical knights one by one.

I also used my wrapped long sword and defeated the mechanical knights.

However, when Yuuya-san started to defeat the red mechanical knights, this long sword wrapped in bandages started to emit a strange aura.

Actually, this weapon appeared out of nowhere when I manifested my superpower, and I never unpacked it, so I didn’t even know what kind of weapon it was.

Since my superpower is Sword Saint’s Sword Light, I think it’s probably a sword… but still, it was a weapon full of secrets.

This content is taken from freёnovelkiss.com.

Now, this long sword was reacting in a way I’ve never seen before.

What in the world was happening?

As I continued to fight the mechanical knights despite my confusion, I noticed that the seemingly endless army of mechanical knights was visibly dwindling.

“We’re nearing the end! Everyone, keep up the good work!”

Seeing this, Sein-san gave an encouraging speech, and everyone attacked the mechanical knights even more.

“Turn into ashes!”

Akane also continued to shoot flames at maximum power, but even our superpower has its limits.

The reason was… mental fatigue.

Just as the red mechanical knights used the brains of the Awakened, our superpower was closely related to the brain.

When we used our superpowers, our brains worked hard.

That’s why the more we used our superpower, the more we overworked our brains.

In fact, Sein-san seemed to be close to his limit, and he was even bleeding from his nose.

Even so, everyone was desperately fighting because humanity wanted to take back the land.

“Haaaaahhh!”

I also sent out sword light to destroy the mechanical knights, but at that moment, I felt a sudden sense of discomfort.

“Hah…hah…something’s wrong with the way the mechanical knights are moving, isn’t it?”

“Eh? What do you mean?”

I asked Akane while I was catching my breath, but it seemed that Akane didn’t feel any discomfort.

“I don’t know how to put this, but… aren’t the attacks of those machines focused on Yuuya-san?”

That’s right, it felt like the mechanical knights were rushing towards Yuuya-san.

Of course, they were coming towards us as well, but while two or three mechanical knights were attacking us, more than a dozen were attacking Yuuya-san at once.

No matter how you looked at it, it seemed like the mechanical knights were targeting Yuuya-san first and foremost.

“Isn’t that because Yuuya-san is the biggest threat to the mechanical knights? If Yuuya-san is defeated, then we’re finished.”

“…..”

As Akane said, Yuuya-san was showing tremendous strength.

He really was a savior.

Even now, he was wielding his mysterious whip and slaughtering dozens of mechanical knights at once.

“That’s why we’re just going to destroy them so that we can lighten Yuuya-san’s load a little.”

“…I guess so.”

I told myself that I was thinking too much and continued to destroy the mechanical knights with Akane.

“HAAAAAAAAAAAHH!”

In the midst of this, Yuuya-san’s sword finally cut down the last enemy.

The mechanical knight that had been cut to pieces collapsed to the ground, and… soon, silence fell over the battlefield.

And then…

“W-we did it!”

“I-it’s our victory!”

Everyone let out a roar of victory at once.

The long battle with the mechanical knights… was finally over!

I immediately ran over to Yuuya-san, who was taking a breather.

“Yuuya-san!”

“Kazuya! Are you okay?”

Even though he had had the hardest part, Yuuya-san still said kind words to me.

“I’m fine! You took on most of the mechanical knights!”

“No, it was only possible thanks to everyone’s help. If it had been just me, I would have been overwhelmed by the sheer numbers.”

Yuuya-san was being modest like that, but I didn’t think that’s true at all.

Even if we hadn’t been there, I think Yuuya-san would have been able to handle the situation.

Anyway…

“Speaking of those machines… It was kind of creepy how they analyzed Yuuya-san’s movements while they were fighting.”

“Now that you mention it…”

I hope I was imagining things, but it’s still a little creepy.

While I was thinking this, I suddenly saw the remains of the mechanical knight that Yuuya-san had cut down at the end.

That mechanical knight was just an ordinary mechanical knight, but… to my surprise, it had light in its head!

“What… can that thing still move!”

I quickly swung my longsword at the broken mechanical knight.

At that moment, the mechanical knight uttered a garbled voice.

“…Data collection complete…”

“Eh?”

While I was surprised by the unexpected voice, the mechanical knight fell completely silent as I swung my sword down.

…What on earth was that?

What does ‘data collection completed’ mean…?

Yuuya-san opened his mouth apologetically as he looked at me with a difficult expression on his face.

“Sorry, I thought I had defeated it, but it looks like I was a bit careless.”

“N-no, it’s fine…”

“But instead of that, now that we’ve defeated the mechanical knights, are we going to finally defeat the Machine God Mother?”

Yuuya-san said something like that, but I couldn’t get the mechanical knight’s words out of my head.

…Considering the number of mechanical knights this time, it’s safe to say that the Machine God Mother has used almost all of its fighting power in this battle.

That’s why this battle should end with a victory for humanity.

Then why was she collecting data now?

Just as I was thinking that…

“Haaaaaahhh!”

Suddenly, Yuuya-san noticed something and swung the sword in his hand.

The next moment, a terrifying laser shot out from far away!

That laser was more powerful than any of the mechanical knights we had faced before, and if it had landed where we were, we would have been destroyed instantly.

However, Yuuya-san noticed the laser first and slashed it with the sword in his hand.

Once again, thanks to Yuuya-san, we escaped death.

However…

“W-what the hell happened?!”

We just defeated the mechanical knights, so how could there be a laser attack?

Everyone was confused, and Yuuya-san stared into the distance.

“…It seems there are still some left.”

“What? You mean the army of mechanical knights is approaching?!”

I can’t help but ask, but Yuuya-san shakes his head.

“No, it’s not an army─it’s just one.”

“Eh?”

I saw a small figure in the distance.

As it approached, its true identity gradually became clear.

“W-what on earth is that…?”

A sinister-looking figure with a jet-black machine.

It was the first time we had seen such a mechanical knight.

The jet-black mechanical knight floated in the air and looked down at us as we stood guard.

“──I didn’t expect that.”

“!?”

We opened our eyes wide, never expecting it to speak.

However, the jet-black mechanical knight didn’t seem to mind our reaction and continued to speak.

“There was a 99% chance that we would win over humanity. However, due to a single uncertain element, everything was turned upside down. That is─due to the one who transcends time.”

“!”

Did it just say that Yuuya-san was a time-transcending being?

This meant that the Machine God Mother had already realized that Yuuya-san was a being from the past.

When I was surprised by this fact, Yuuya-san opened his mouth softly.

“…Are you the Machine God Mother?”

“Well, yes and no. The one speaking now was Mother, but this machine itself is a separate individual. In other words, I am merely using this machine to temporarily deliver words to all of you.”

…So that means there was another Machine God Mother?

“Then what did you come here to do? Negotiate a peace treaty?”

Yuuya-san asked, and the jet-black mechanical knight replied.

“No. I have come to destroy humanity with this machine.”

“What?”

While Yuuya-san and the others take up fighting positions, the jet-black mechanical knight continues speaking.

“I’m sorry, but due to the battle we just had, most of the analysis has already been completed. Time-transcending being, your attacks are now meaningless.”

“I won’t know that until I try!”

Yuuya-san said as he took out his mysterious spear and threw it at the jet-black mechanical knight.

The power of the spear was tremendous, and it was impossible to follow it with the eye.

However, the jet-black mechanical knight deflected the spear with a laser-type sword.

“What!?”

While Yuuya-san was surprised by the scene, the jet-black mechanical knight continued to speak calmly.

“As I said, I’ve almost finished analyzing you. The weapon used by the time-transcending being is a so-called ‘conceptual weapon.’ Once I know that, I can deal with it as I wish.”

“Conceptual weapon?”

I had no idea what it was, but it seemed that Yuuya-san’s weapon was ineffective against that thing.

However, Yuuya-san did not give up; he grabbed his sword and attacked the mechanical knight.

“Then… until we fight normally!”

Then he surged with all his power and attacked at once.

But… the mechanical knight calmly blocked the attack with his sword.

“Additional information: The exact strength of the conceptual weapon used by the time-transcending being has been determined. The strength of the conceptual counter-energy has been adjusted.”

“As I thought, it seems that the Omni-Sword doesn’t work.”

Yuuya-san muttered as he engaged in a sword fight with the mechanical knight.

However, he immediately swung his sword with tremendous force.

I myself have been swinging a sword for many years, so I know.

Yuuya-san’s sword skills had already reached the highest realm.

That’s why I thought that Yuuya-san would overwhelm the mechanical knight as he was.

“The power of the time-transcending being has already been analyzed. It can be dealt with.”

“What?”

To my surprise, the mechanical knight was able to easily deal with Yuuya-san’s seemingly perfect swordsmanship!

Even Yuuya-san himself was surprised by this, and his eyes widened.

And as the two supreme swordsmen clashed, the mechanical knight unleashed countless laser cannons from his back.

This is… not good!

“Run!”

“Yuuya-san!”

“Kuh!?”

I shouted in panic, but it was too late, and countless lasers rained down on Yuuya-san, who was fighting with his sword.

Yuuya-san managed to push the mechanical knight away, and he dodged and deflected the lasers, but the mechanical knight continued to attack.

What’s more, the more Yuuya-san attacked, the more I could see that the mechanical knight was gradually adapting to his movements and strength.

That thing… It’s analyzing while fighting!

If this continued, Yuuya-san would be in danger.

Even if I go over there, I’ll just be a hindrance.

But I can’t just stand by and watch…!

At that moment, I made up my mind and grabbed my long sword.

“Huh?”

Suddenly, the long sword in my hand began to emit a blinding white light.

As the light grew stronger, the bandages that had never been removed before began to loosen.

“Unidentified release of tremendous energy detected. What exactly is this…”

It seems that even the mechanical knight was surprised by this situation, and it stopped moving for a moment.

Yuuya-san did not let this opportunity pass, and in one swift move, he slipped into the mechanical knight’s chest and raised his sword.

And then…

“Fuhh…!”

He unleashed a terrifyingly silent blow at the mechanical knight.

The mechanical knight could not dodge the attack. A single line ran from his head to his groin.

After a few moments, the mechanical knight fell quietly to its knees.
