Chapter Index

    The talents of AS pilots, especially those called ace pilots, vary greatly.

    Just because you have talent does not necessarily mean you will become a super ace.

    Depending on how hard he works, Beomjae can also become the best ace pilot.

    Someone, a senior, once said something like that.

    -It is not the strong who survive, but the strong who survive.

    Although he spoke in a voice that seemed quite serious, he said that the environment in which the words were actually communicated could vary in many ways.

    Those who survive are strong.

    That is correct.

    But what if the method of ‘surviving’ is different?

    The one who defeats all the enemies that stand in his way and survives alone must be strong.

    However, if you run away from your enemy and avoid a fight, you may be able to say that you survived, but you cannot be said to be strong.

    The same goes for this war.

    Scorpie Colony.

    Taurus Colony.

    If you’ve been hit by them once, you can get over it without any problems if you keep your anger down and wash away your sadness with tears.

    If you survive with such regrets, you can definitely survive.

    But if they show such weakness in space, they will never let them go.

    I might just survive for a little while.

    You might think that the person who survives is strong, and that just not having to fight the enemy and get killed is strong enough.

    However, while you are relieved that you survived, the enemies will come to attack your heart once more, targeting that moment of inattention.

    ‘Even if we are the same person, the judgments we make as humans are different.’

    They are not the ones who mourn the death of others.

    These are people who are happy to gain weight and fatten their bellies based on that death.

    They say that there is no eternal good or eternal evil in the vast universe, but if you ask who is closer to ‘evil’ at least at this point, it is of course them.

    ‘We have to fight.’

    Sometimes fighting is the way to survive and win.

    Resolving a problem through dialogue is the top priority, but when a problem cannot be resolved through dialogue, there are times when the solution is to use force.

    okay.

    Even if you have a conversation, you need a strong force to get the other person to sit at the conversation table in order to create a space for the conversation.

    Because it takes a lot of strength to sit at the same table, look at eye level, and talk.

    Therefore, now is the time to solidify that strength.

    My role is to help them build up their strength to the point where the enemy does not even dare to think about fighting before they enter the arena of dialogue.

    as soon as.

    “Why are you doing that?”

    [Keuw?!]

    “Only like this, will you be able to surpass me?”

    Prior to actual combat, the goal is to experience practical training that is more authentic than actual combat.

    “The ace pilot has a role as an ace pilot. Especially if it’s someone like you.”

    [Don’t try to deceive me with words!!]

    Lavender shouts loudly and comes running.

    Electricity explodes from Fenrir’s ether claws, with both hands stretched out to the left and right.

    [Because I will win no matter what!]

    The role of an ace pilot.

    Charging towards the opponent’s specialty or commander’s aircraft and neutralizing it – or destroying it.

    “You have a great attitude.”

    Lavender is rushing toward me with all her might to fulfill her role.

    “However, the attack is shallow.”

    Kaaaan!

    I swung my halberd at the Ether Claw flying towards the aircraft I was riding.

    The claw, swung accurately, touches the tip of the halberd’s spear blade made of ether, purple electricity flashes, and the ether explodes.

    “Not enough power to push at speed.”

    [Ugh…!!]

    Fenrir continues to push Claw.

    He infuses ether into the claw that collides with the blade of the spear and tries his best to cut the halberd down.

    [Aren’t you cheating?! How did Fenrir’s claw…!]

    “It’s a highly trained technique.”

    From Lavender’s perspective, it would be absurd.

    Even though I’m a paladin.

    Even if this is a virtual mock battle.

    “Usually, a creation beast’s weapon will break if it is not countered with a weapon from the same creation beast.”

    Even though the weapon on the plane I’m currently riding is a bit unique, it would be ridiculous to take down Fenrir’s claws.

    “Look carefully, the wavelength.”

    [wavelength…?]

    “If it is a weapon made of ether rather than simply mass, it can be countered by attacking in accordance with the wavelength of ether.”

    [……!]

    Did you see lavender?

    A constant etheric resonance is occurring at the tip of Fenrir’s claw and where the blade of my halberd touches.

    “It doesn’t matter if you can’t see it. Because it will look better in real life than it does now.”

    [Ugh…!]

    “But if you can’t see it in a mock battle, you probably won’t see it in a real game either.”

    It was a mock battle, so if it had been a real battle, a stronger ether wave would have erupted than now.

    “Can you see it?”

    [……Once more!!]

    Fenrir takes a big step back.

    It flew upward as if doing somersaults, widening the distance from me.

    [We’re going into blade mode, so respond accordingly!]

    With a clanking and clanking sound, it transforms from a human into the form of a four-legged beast-wolf and begins to run through space.

    Bu-euung!

    The speed was three times that of the humanoid running speed.

    It would be fundamental for an ordinary human being to be unable to handle the speed of sincerity emitted by Chang Se-soo, but-

    [going!!]

    Lavender can do it.

    Her talent lies in her wild nature and intuition, which are clearly different from other ace pilots, almost like an animal.

    in other words.

    Fenrir fights with a beast form, making him the most suitable talent to bring out the original power of the beast of creation.

    ‘I’m a little jealous.’

    It is safe to say that he definitely surpassed me in at least that one talent, his ability to handle beast-type aircraft.

    experience?

    At this point, talent is skill.

    Even if it were to draw out the power of the Genesis Water and make the Genesis Water just use the pilot as bio parts, Lavender would already be doing her part.

    but.

    “It would be a big mistake to think that just because you changed the mode, you will be punished.”

    I swing my halberd sharply at the beast running through space.

    prediction.

    Read the trajectory and swing the halberd wide to intercept.

    Bu-ung.

    The feeling of splitting the air.

    There is no sense that something is being cut.

    [Haha!]

    Lavender’s triumphant laughter bursts out.

    I failed the attack?

    no.

    [Gotcha]

    Phew!!

    I turned around and swung the halberd towards the back of my body.

    [Aaaah!!]

    A precise blow to the cheek of Fenrir, who appeared behind me.

    Unfortunately, the angle was twisted so I was swinging wide with the side of the halberd rather than the blade, but the purple blade attached to Fenrir’s mouth could not reach me.

    “Is Fenrir’s specialty ‘space transference’?”

    [Cheet…!]

    Fenrir, who was blown away by my blow, spins around and takes a stance.

    Although there is no floor, it uses the etheric magnetic field created by electrons as a net to land on all fours and looks up at me.

    [It’s a scam!]

    “Scam?”

    [Did you know?! This technology!!]

    “You’re narrow-minded, Lavender.”

    I couldn’t help but laugh at the shout that reminded me of my past somewhere.

    “How many enemy aircraft do you think have been trying to catch up with me so far?”

    [but…!]

    “Hyperspeed movement, quantization, conservation jump, space jump, wormhole…. The basis of technology is all different, but the fundamentals of situations that occur during battle are all the same.”

    I aimed my halberd at Fenrir.

    “Jump through space and hit the opponent from behind.”

    [Tsk…!]

    “Among Fenrir’s versatile abilities, the two most powerful are etheric lightning and spatial leap.”

    […….]

    Fenrir raises his head again.

    Previously, he was holding the blade on one side, but now the purple blade began to extend out from the side of his mouth to the left and right.

    “Even if the electric shock does not hit, it inflicts cumulative damage if it touches the opponent’s aircraft. The ultra-fast movement…is intended to fool the eye into space jumping. Was I wrong?”

    [under….]

    “The battle of an ace pilot begins with understanding the abilities of the opposing pilot and aircraft. The same goes for information obtained in advance.”

    I know how to use it when fighting Fenrir.

    “If it had come out in a different aircraft, it would have taken me some time to check.”

    [How much?]

    “Well. 1 minute?”

    […….]

    One minute may seem like a very short time, but some people can destroy more than 5 medium cruisers in that 1 minute.

    And that’s just riding on a special plane holding a bazooka.

    “Lavender. Take up arms. The battle is not over yet.”

    [……Damage was done. However, there appears to be no damage.]

    Lavender looks at me in a calm voice.

    [Bug in simulation? Cheat code? …No. That’s impossible now. This is… a legitimate feature within the allowable range.]

    “What do you think?”

    [That… hehe.]

    Lavender grins.

    [I’m not sure, but you have ‘infinite energy’ right now, right?]

    “…….”

    [Do you know what? The instructor said that sometimes silence is the answer.]

    “Does that mean it is now?”

    [Rather, I see that you are answering it as a question, so that is correct. Hehehe.]

    Tsk.

    [Let’s see. The gas itself does not seem to have nearly infinite energy.]

    “…….”

    [It’s a bit difficult to rely on intuition, but it looks like the analysis results came out?]

    analyze.

    [Turn the microphone.]

    […Each unit in Green 04!]

    Hanae’s voice.

    [There is something that replenishes energy from all hostile gases! Only by destroying that ‘nucleus’ can you defeat all Rafales that regenerate infinitely!]

    Hanae, who had passively participated in the battle until now, penetrated the essence of this mock battle.

    [That core…!]
