When I Fell Madly in Love With the Heroine, the World Changed. ～the Strongest Gamer in the World Bec

“Is that a paternal inheritance?”

Rhode looks at Reina, who flew away before he could give the order, and looks at Sieg with a dry smile.

He recalls the image of Sieg, with whom he once fought in the EU war.

“Oh, I am so embarrassed. I’ll call her back immediately!”

“Oh, I don’t mind. it’s understandable she want to try her own exclusive KOG. But…”

—Gillian has been defeated? What the hell is going on? Are the enemy of the Holy Knight class? But my sister is now alone.

“Seig, this way.”

“? …Ha!”

Rhode, who is sitting in a throne-like command chair, calls Sieg close.

“I ask you to keep this secret from the others. Once you have found and secured my sister, contact me alone and wait by that mountain.”

“? …Yes, sir.”

Sieg then also takes off on the KOG.

He receives a request from Rhode to rescue Yumir, who is alone in enemy territory.

***

The Princess escapes KOG and runs away with her back to him.

Reina stands in between them and does not let Kenya pursue yumir.

“I know you can hear me, who are you? I don’t think you are just a resistance fighter.”

Reina tries calling in over the comms in open chat.

—Why, Reyna is on the battlefield. No. She’s an Empire soldier, of exceptional ability. It’s only natural, I guess.

“No reply? …….”

— Should I reveal myself? No, not just yet. I can’t give up my status as an Empire soldier just yet.

“Fine. If you don’t want to talk, that’s alright as well. Then.”

Reina charges at Kenya with her sword at the ready.

“By force, that figure! I will expose it!”

The sword that is swung down has a clear hostility and intent to kill.

— Faster! Even faster than in the training. This beautiful silver and cherry blossom colors, after all, this is –Reina’s exclusive KOG! Aphrodite!

In the world of KOG, there are special KOG, which ace-class only pilots can have.

But the appearance of the new KOG, called the ‘Takemikazuchi’ has changed Kenya’s perception.

They are more expensive than normal KOG and their performance varies greatly.

In particular, Reina’s Aphrodite is a very well-balanced type.

In contrast to Kenya’s melee specialization, it has a high standard in all aspects of attack and defense.

In the Squad game, it was the most frequently used KOG.

In a simulator with the same specs on it, Kenya would never fall behind Reina.

However, the other party had recently improved its capabilities remarkably, and was also an advanced, specialized KOG.

It was not an opponent that could be easily dealt with by cutting corners.

“Kuk!”

Kenya was struck by a sword, and he was forced to back away.

Sweat beads on his forehead, and he feels the frustration of being beaten at this rate.

That’s how serious her killing intent is.

—So this is you’re on the battlefield…

However.

—I can’t defeat Reina, or there’ll be no point for me to be fighting.

“You’ve been fooling around since a while ago! Fight!”

Kenya continues to defend himself, dodging and receiving attacks.

But that’s not enough. She will catch up to him one day.

She is that strong, and in Kenya’s opinion, she has already exceeded the level of a holy knight and is certainly stronger than Gillian.

—I’m sorry if I hurt you, Reina.

Immediately afterwards, Kenya reverses.

“!!!?”

Kenya slashes back.

A real blow, a real serious one, which he has never shown to Reina, even during training.

His aim was to neutralize her, but she was not someone whom he could do tricks such as not hurting.

It was an all-out effort because he trusted Reina.

Just as masters train with seriousness, if you don’t trust your opponent’s strength, you could kill them with a blow.

Even if I were to die, I would never kill Reina.

Even so, Reina would surely be able to take it.

That’s why I’m going to seriously neutralize her.

Kenya repeatedly attacks onslaught and damages Reina’s KOG.

He aims at the limbs of Reina’s KOG with a stormy series of gunfire and sword fights.

“Ggh!”

— Strong! It seems you were toying with me earlier. It’s frustrating, but this opponent is stronger than me!

Reina, at once taking a distance.

In the cockpit, she is out of breath and sweating.

Reina breathes heavily on her shoulders after just a little attack and defense, losing both energy and strength.

The pressure of putting her life on the line used more physical strength than she could have imagined.

“Hahaha, this series of blows. It’s just like Kenya-kun. ……”

At that moment, Reyna receives a transmission.

“Reina-kun, can you hear me?”

“Rhode-sama? Yes, I can hear you.”

The contact was made by Rhode.

He was on the battlefield with a huge tank that doubled as a command center in the rear.

“Disengage immediately, you can’t win. This is the one who defeated Gillian, the head of the Holy Knights. You have to run away and retreat to this side.”

“…… understood.”

From Reina’s distressed transmission, Rhode instantly understood that the opponent was the one who had defeated Gillian.

But she also understood that it wouldn’t be easy to escape or win on her own.

So she runs away.

But if I show my back easily, I will be pierced in a split second.

— Even running away from this enemy… is difficult for me…

Reina took a step back slowly.

However, the KOG in front of her did not move.

I thought it was a trap, but there is no need for an opponent who is clearly superior to me to play such tricks.

—Why.

The KOG did not move at all, even though she took one step further away and even though she flew away in the air to escape.

While staring straight at me.

“I don’t know. But I survived ……. If I had continued to fight like that, I would definitely have died.”

Reina returns to the military base, which is also the mother ship, where Rhode is waiting for her.

The moment she gets out of the cockpit and stands on the ground, she falls to her knees on the ground because she has no strength in her knees.

“I can’t believe how worn out I am. ……”

The fatigue of a girl who had even been prepared for death had drained her strength beyond imagination.

After a short rest and refueling, she returned to the command center, still laughing at her knees but able to recover to some extent.

“Where is Rhode-sama?”

Raina asks a nearby soldier as she enters the command center.

“we were informed he’s going out for a while.”

“I see. But Where on earth?”

After waiting for a while, Rhode and Sieg enter the command center.

“You’re back, welcome back, Reina. I’m glad you’re okay.”

“Yes, thank you for the evacuation order. Is Yumir-sama safe?”

“…… No, She was struck by the Resistance and died.”

“! …… I see, I am sorry.”

—I should have escorted her properly. No, in front of that other person, that’s impossible…

“No, you are not to blame. You fought well. This is the guy who beat Gillian. Hey, Seig.”

“Yes, yes! Welcome back, Raina.”

Seig is also back in the control room, and is surprised when Rhode suddenly calls his name.

For some reason, his appearance seemed different from usual, but Reina did not particularly care, thinking that her father was also nervous on the battlefield for the first time in a long time.

—He’s a scary man… I never thought… he’d do something like that. –Seig.

***

A little while ago

“Rhode-sama, we have secured Yumir-sama. She is now resting in the nearby mountains for the time being and seems to be very tired.”

“Hmm, kill the bastard quickly, Sieg. Bring that rude bastard before me! ‘Hmm, kill the bastard quickly, Sieg. Bring that rude bastard before me! I’ll make it worse than death. I’ll rip off all his limbs and blind him so he can’t kill himself, and I’ll keep him for the rest of his life!’ -Yumir curses.

Sieg sits the exhausted Yumir down and waits there.

Gillian is strong as Holy Knights.

Although he is a recently elected youngster, he is still a chief holy knight. He shouldn’t be defeated so easily.

And yet, what is the result?

He was cut down in two along with his KOG with a single Sword strike.

With such overwhelmingly difference.

— Has the level of the chief holy knight fallen too low? Gillian is certainly a higher class of Holy Knight, but is it due to the fact that he hasn’t had any hard-fought battles in recent years?

Knights grow in war.

They only grow by winning battles in which their lives are at stake.

Sieg has experienced this to the point of disgust, but recently there have been few battles that could be called battles.

As Sieg ponders this, a KOG descends from the sky.

The KOG was a one dedicated to the royal family, decorated in the same way as Yumir’s KOG.

“Rhode-sama.”

The KOG kneels and the pilot comes down from inside.

“Rhode! You’ve come!”

Yumir looks up happily at the kind looking blonde boy.

“Sieg, did anyone see you?”

“No, all of Yumir-sama’s guards are engaged with the Resistance, it’s just me.”

“Yes, that’s good to know.”

A firefight unfolds below.

All of Yumir’s personal guards were engaged with the Resistance led by Isshin, and their hands were tied.

“What was good about that? Rhode. Tell me so I can understand.”

“No, you don’t need to. For the people who are going to die.”

“What?”

PANG.

A gunshot rang out, the dry sound drowned out by the sounds of the battle unfolding below, echoing through the fields and mountains.

Yumir’s chest was pierced by a bullet that Rhode pulled out of his chest.

“W-whhy …… Rh…”

“Goodbye, sister. You.”

The fresh blood splashed out, and Yumir collapsed on the spot without any strength.

“I always despised you with all my heart.”
