NOVEL WEB Chapter 22: Slaughter.
—“Well, Gillian. Shall we start the game?”
*Nods!*
More than ten KOGs on the mountain.
They are not strong enough to fight a war, but they are strong enough to destroy the resistance.
They are the Yumir’s personal trops.
An army of private soldiers, the SS, which only the royal family could have.
And at the front stands Gillian, one of the Empire’s proud chief holy knights, even though he is a young man.
Then a loud voice echoes around the area from the KOG in which Yumir rides.
The voice is transmitted by the KOG’s loudspeaker to the slum below.
“Er, Testing 1-2-1-2.”
“What is it?”
“Loudspeaker?”
The inhabitants of the slum below look up.
They listen to the sudden, loud voice.
They are outcasts who failed to become third-class citizens but could not leave Japan behind.
They are Kaguya’s family, and Kenya loves them like family.
“Do you hear me? Livestock living illegally in our country?”
“Is this…”
“Could it be the Empire?”
“I was told to warn you just in case, so I will warn you…”
Yumir gives a warning because Rhod told her to.
“Surrender without resisting, and I’ll spare your life if you become a third-class citizen. I’m counting the time now, so surrender. Failure to surrender will be considered a refusal.”
“Who?”
“What do you mean?”
“Mum… what is happening?”
The voices can be heard all over the slum.
And was it bad luck or good?
This was the slum where Amaterasu had its headquarters.
“Isshin-san!”
“Yeah! Prepare for battle immediately! Contact Kaguya, Kenya-kun as well.”
–This voice, no way. It the royal family! And torture princess Yumiru. The worst of the worst is here.
The resistance led by Isshin has weapons.
There are more people that can operate KOGs, although weak, but still there is a force to intercept them.
“Three, two, one…”
The countdown proceeds, one by one.
There is no warning, only a death sentence.
“Zero! Well then, let’s begin.”
No one can see Yumir’s face in the KOG.
But that face doesn’t think it’s a pity at all.
That face is.
“I’m going to kill everyone ♥”
It was twisted with an expression of ecstasy.
***
“I’ll Drive!”
Kaguya stepped on the accelerator as hard as she could.
It would take about an hour to get there.
“I wonder if they are safe…”
Kenya’s mind was on edge.
He had fought once in an operation.
He had killed a man once.
But it was the first time to be attacked.
Moreover, this time it was a regular army.
There was no guarantee of victory.
If you’re not careful, you could even die in your first battlefield or fight.
“We have to hurry.”
“–Please get to them in time”
Kaguya hurries as fast as she can.
They continue on in silence for a while, and after an hour of frustration, they approach their destination, and what do they see?
“Smoke!! and I hear gunfire.”
Black smoke in the sky, plus the sound of bombs and gunfire.
It shows that the slum has become a battlefield.
The two then headed towards the warehouse where Amaterasu’s stronghold was located.
(Notes: It wasn’t clearly explained how they got there but i suppose it by a car, since they don’t own KOG and so i think ‘飛’ which means flying is meant to driving as fast as flying)
***
“What’s taking them so long?”
Yumir gets out of the KOG and sits at a special desk and chair, drinking tea gracefully.
“Even though they’ re the Resistance, it’s dangerous to charge in unless we know the strength of the force. We’ll have to wait and observe for an hour or so.”
“You’re ever so careful, aren’t you? Boring.”
Yumir’s private army attacks from a distance, waiting to see how the enemy will react.
“But I’ve already seen most of them. Shall we sail out? Yumir-sama.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes. Sorry to keep you waiting. I will protect you, so please move as you wish.”
Yumir gets into the KOG.
The aircraft takes off from the top of the mountain and lands on a slum.
The slum is already ablaze from long-range fire and bombing, but many people were still in the process of evacuating.
Some of them are wearing military uniforms and are directing the evacuation.
‘There’s still a lot of rubbish in there, we have to clean it up.’
Into that slum, a demon descended.
*Shot*
KOG’s Standard Machine Gun.
A shot fired from its shoulder easily ended the life of one of them.
After that shot, the displaced people ran away screaming, running for their lives.
I remember the wars of the past.
They cannot be expected to have the moral courage to save women and children.
Imperial soldiers slaughtering everything in sight.
“Aahh, I can’t stand it. It’s so much fun after all. Ahh, Hunting people! Hmm?”
“I surrender! I will not resist! I’m not going to resist!”
“My, that’s good spirit.”
The soldier’s cheeks relaxed for a moment at that reply.
But he was crushed to death by a huge sword that swung down on him.
“But I don’t understand squeals of pigs. Ahhh!! haha it’s the best. I love this feeling of subjugating life.”
Yumir laughs and admits that she enjoys killing them one at a time.
She kills them slowly.
Her face is like that of a woman who has reached her climax, her cheeks flushed with perfect ahegao expression.
“F**k, F**k! don’t piss me!!!!”
A bazooka is fired at Yumir’s aircraft.
However, the bombardment exploded in mid-air.
“I won’t let you lay a finger on Yumir-sama.”
The Imperial knight, Gillian, is easily shot down.
Yumir’s defence was ironclad and no attack could penetrate from their side.
***
“Isshin! Quickly, us too! Join them and fight!”
“Not yet! If we leave now, we’ll just die like dogs. Take cover! Resist!”
In the command centre, Isshin clenches his fists tightly and oozes blood.
He knows he is under attack, but the other side is a regular army.
And the fact that the Imperial Princess is here means that the Chief Holy Knight class is present.
That is why the members of the resistance ‘Amaterasu’ are committed to evacuation support and minimal interception.
Even so, the damage is enormous, and a large number of soldiers and civilians have lost their lives.
“We are no match for them. Our KOG skill is nothing more than a piece of iron against the skills of our chief knight class.”
“So you want us to just sit back and let them destroy us!”
The soldiers are still running out of patience.
“If we don’t fight here! If we lose what we want to protect! Then we’ve already lost!”
“I know!”
Isshin slams the desk so hard that the object on which he is riding falls to the ground.
Isshin feels irritation and frustration and wants to jump out right now, but he bites down hard enough to make his mouth bleed and endures.
“But not yet. hold still, any minute now. Almost there.”
There is only one person waiting for Isshin.
The boy who will be with his beloved daughter, whom he loves.
His origins are unknown, and he does not know why he is so strong.
He’s a weird boy!
At first glance, he is just a naive and gentle boy, as if from a world that knows nothing of war.
But he has a strong passion in his heart.
He has one unbreakable pillar.
A boy with pure eyes who wants to protect his daughter and everyone here.
“He’s coming!”
I am waiting for the irregulars of this world.
