Maria, the leader of the Scorpi-Taurus Colony combined forces, could not understand the situation unfolding before her eyes.

“That’s ridiculous.”

I couldn’t believe it.

“This….”

How much power was gathered here?

While other colonies innocently tried to help the Starlight Colony and launched attacks, Maria secretly stepped into the area as a lieutenant general and did her best in the Taurus Colony’s mission.

Resources were stolen from small colonies so that the factories could produce huge quantities.

Based on those resources, all kinds of lethal weapons were researched and manufactured.

In the process, some of Maria’s own knowledge was used.

Although the knowledge was only partial, it was conveyed in an analog manner so as not to fall under the eyes and ears of any one monster.

-Fuck, what are you talking about if you’re not writing a novel?

A technology that is commercialized in the other universe is a technology that makes no sense in this universe, so there was a situation where engineers went on strike as a group after ordering the development of that technology.

At least, Maria was fully prepared for this war.

As much as you know who the other person is.

To the extent that the opponent could possibly become the creator of the creation.

And since there is a possibility that several Creation Beasts will rush in, the Taurus Colony has been prepared to produce as many as possible.

Red Moon?

It can be suppressed.

Even though the red moon has nearly infinite energy, isn’t it just a huge mass of ether that simply emits energy?

Fenrir?

It was a wild animal that had never once become someone’s watchdog in the 200 years of the universal century.

I thought there was no way such a being, a 20-year-old kid who had become a pilot for about half a year, would suddenly show overwhelming destructive power with his master on board.

Yggdrasil?

The existence of Emerald Yggdrasil, the Creation Beast, was clearly a variable, but Yggdrasil only protected its base colony and did not take the lead.

In the first place.

Excluding the window water, there was no need to say how much difference the electricity cost would make.

It was safe to say 100:1, or even 1000:1 if I were to exaggerate.

From the beginning, Maria herself calculated the power cost and made a decision.

He did not underestimate the enemy, nor did he place any weight on the strength of his allies.

A battle involving up to four-digit numbers of battle cruisers was on a scale that could not easily be found even if you looked around the universe.

Even the number of AS aboard each ship is enormous.

These are not just mass-produced aircraft, but the current generation of aircraft that Taurus Colony has put a lot of effort into producing over the past dozen years.

Some of the aircraft were even decided to be manufactured and put into actual test operation long before the Paladins began active service.

however.

Well, it all exploded.

Without any time to make an excuse, it exploded and exploded again.

Scorpie dogs equipped with neo-nutrion engines explode.

After neglecting the safety of the pilot and only increasing the power of the aircraft, the aircraft equipped with android weapons are shot down one after another by opposing fighters.

It explodes on Rafale.

No, that’s not a Rafale.

It’s something else in the shape of Rafale.

It is something with another name, wearing the shell of a Rafale and fighting as if it were a Rafale.

Okay.

Even if Rafale is stronger than expected, there are still a lot of entities cloned based on Paladin’s data.

A virtual personality created based on his battle data.

Cloned objects created based on his biological data.

And there are still war bioroids that were rapidly grown based on his and Paladin’s genes.

No matter how many creations they had, they could not defeat hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands of Paladins.

The same was true for both the simulation and the objective power ratio.

But what does this mean?

“Pseudo-personalities are suppressed by students…!”

Look at the enhanced humans created based on the Paladin’s personality.

Does it explode because the opponent has a specialty?

That is unforgivable.

A Paladin is someone who continuously destroys the opponent’s special skills even while riding a mass-produced aircraft.

With such Paladin data, it is absurd to create such a vain battle.

So what is the problem?

Space cruiser?

Does this mean that bringing thousands of space battleships against AS aircraft is a defeat?

What nonsense is that?

The fact that battleships are the highest peak in the universe is a rule that applies equally no matter where you go in space.

In the first place, isn’t it basic for AS to enter the hangar of a battleship?

Such AS are destroying countless battleships.

The Taurus Colony’s elite warships are being destroyed and broken at random.

That chain explosion was really-

“Ha.”

For Maria, it was so frustrating that she almost laughed.

“That’s ridiculous.”

can not understand.

“This means losing?”

No matter how much I think about it, I can’t understand it.

Was he arrogant?

no.

Didn’t they formulate their fighting force taking into account the fact that the opponent was a creator?

I ran the Taurus colony simulation several times.

The result was 34 wins out of 34 matches.

It was a battle that had no choice but to win.

If he hadn’t been able to win in the first place, he wouldn’t have entered the battle so confidently.

however.

What the hell is this-

[Captain Maria.]

Someone appeared on the front monitor.

An older man with a bald head appeared with his back to the chair.

“, Chairman!!”

[How is the battle going?]

“Well, that’s…!”

[As expected, are we losing?]

“……Yes?”

Maria felt as if all the excuses that came to her mind were flying out of her mind in an instant.

“Just now, what did you say…?”

[After all, no matter how many copies we make, we can’t reach the original.]

“Ui, Chairman…?”

[Ultimately, this means that if we want to take over the hegemony of the universe, we have no choice but to eliminate the original.]

“, Chairman!!”

[You worked hard. Captain Maria. You performed your mission faithfully.]

The chairman continued speaking in a very low voice, as if he were sentencing him to death.

[I thought that if you went to the front, the Paladins would come forward. And that prediction worked 140%. The Paladin goes beyond just stepping forward and goes on a rampage in the middle of the battlefield like that.]

“Chairman, what are you saying now…!”

[If you are smart, you have to be quick to notice.]

The chairman clearly laughed at Maria.

[That means you were a target to summon a paladin, nothing more or less.]

“, Chairman…!”

[Thank you for your hard work, Captain Maria. Thanks to you for stepping forward, I was not wrong in my opinion that we should eliminate the Paladins, even if it meant exchanging all our troops. I will not forget your determination.]

The chairman held up something that looked like a cane and placed his hand on the tip of the cane.

[Goodbye.]

With a clicking sound.

-Enter self-destruct sequence.

With a red sparkle on the front display, the countdown began.

“……!!”

[I wish you good luck.]

“Me, me…! You fooled meㅡㅡㅡ!!”

Maria threw the object she could grab at the chairman, but it only hit the screen.

Kwa—-!!

An explosion occurs in space.

The 11 cloned individuals, each colony’s final aircraft specially produced by the Taurus Colony, spoke of being ‘Genesis Hunters’ and said they would surpass the original.

Kwa—-!!

Rather, they exploded one by one by the Creation Tree and became stardust in the universe.

The opponent had no mercy whatsoever toward the Paladin’s clone, and was completely destroying it as if it were destroying a drone as if there were no humans on it.

And where the explosion follows –

[In accordance with the Paladin removal protocol, the Nuclear Engine self-destructs at the current time.]

Flagship, Pasiphae.

[As of now, the flagship Pasiphae has been replaced by its official name, ‘Pasiphae Missile.’ The location of the bombing is the enemy colony, Starlightㅡ]

As the recorded system message played, Maria knelt down without realizing it.

“Ha, hahaha….”

Suddenly, I burst out laughing.

“For what on earth am I…?”

I abandoned the past, abandoned being a paladin, and chose power, and this is how I became a captain.

“The ending is such a puppet…?”

Beep beep.

[Maria.]

The Paladin’s voice resonates.

A sharp, contemptuous voice, different from the lovely voices the clones whispered.

[you.]

As if to assert.

[Of all the women I have ever hugged, she was the worst.]

He was charging towards Pasiphae with his barrier spread out like a lance.

ah.

“…….”

don’t say

Even if I knew, I wouldn’t say it.

This flagship, this nuclear missile, will soon cause an unprecedented explosion in space and create a huge black hole.

In the first place.

[Disappear, along with the ugly memories of the past—!!]

The moment I heard those words, all thoughts of speaking disappeared.

Kwaaah!

Explosion, explosion, explosion.

The red ‘Signal Lost’ trace appeared from the front to the end of the flagship Pasiphae, but Maria closed her eyes and hoped that the explosion would continue.

And that nuclear explosion hits the original, destroying this entire universe…

[Do you think I will leave it like that?]

“……!!”

A girl’s voice that seems to be laughing at herself.

“This…!”

[She’s still the worst woman.]

“You…! On the topic of AI beasts…!”

[If the chairman behind you is listening, let me make this clear. Just one word.]

The water of creation declares.

[Ether-Nuclear Engine Canceller, operational.]

“……?”

Wi-ing.

The moment when something suddenly seems to stir.

The countdown has stopped.
