Farah's POV
With the arrival of another maid's squad, we can get a vehicle this time.
-So did you find where do you want to go?
I am currently sitting on sister Theresa's lap and answering her.
-Uhm! The maid had found a place that had an abnormal phenomenon. (Farah)
I show sister Theresa the map and point at the "X" mark.
-Huhm?
Sister Theresa looks surprised as she sees the map on the table.
-Do you know this place, sister? (Farah)
Sister Theresa shakes her head.
-I haven't been to this place. But...
-Uhm? (Farah)
-This is a pretty famous place on this planet.
-Can you tell me about it? (Farah)
Sister Theresa scratches her head and looks at me awkwardly.
-Is this place somewhere you can't tell me about? (Farah)
-It's...
Before sister Theresa could finish her sentence, something suddenly pierced through our vehicle from under. That weird thing has a shape of a pincer. It might belong to some kind of gigantic animal.
-What?
The maids guarding near me put out their guns and start shooting at the pincer. But right before they can hit them, the pincer has already been pulled away and disappeared into the ground.
-Ready for the following attack!
It doesn't take long for the pincer to attack us again. This time, it emerges right beside us.
Sister Theresa holds me tightly while paying attention closely to the pincer.
-Desert reaper...We are really unlucky...
-What is that, sister? (Farah)
Sister Theresa clicks her tongue as she watches the pincer disappear from the vehicle again.
The leader maid shouts out loud as she gives the command to the other maids.
-Plan B!
The vehicle immediately dissolves as if made off the water. However, if I pay attention carefully to the material that made this car, I can see they are made of nanomachines.
-Our master and her guest are the first priority!!!
The nanomachine instantly arrives at our side and turns into a safe house.
-This...
Sister Theresa looks quite surprised at the nanomachine technology.
-Tina... I don't think these maids can deal with the reaper.
Well, if she judges from their firepower just now, they are not that monster's enemy. However, I witnessed the maid squad of Hana in the past, and I know how strong they are in the actual fight.
I don't bother explaining everything to sister Theresa and let her witness everything herself. Even though the car has turned into a safe room to protect Theresa and me, it still has a window that allows us to see the situation outside.
As we look through the window, the pincer again appears from under the sand. This time, it successfully pierced through the body of one maid.
-Tina!!!
Sister Theresa tries reaching out to me so she can block my sight. However, I push her hands away and tell her.
-It's okay, sister. She is not dead. (Farah)
-What?
Sister Theresa can detect that something is off at the outside fight.
-Huh?
Even though the pincer pierces through the maid's body, she still moves as if nothing happened. She even has the strength to hold the gun and continue shooting at the pincer.
The monster also puzzles since it finds it weird that its prey can still move. The maid finds her attack useless and decides to self-destruct.
-Code 000.
Her self-destruct creates a terrible explosion and damages the pincer.
-She just exploded!!??
But not far from where the maid just exploded, an identical maid appears. That maid only uses the self-destruct to escape the pincer, but not die for real.
The leader maid once again gives out another command.
-Level 2.
-Yes...
-Roger that.
-Roger!
Their uniform starts to change and start making a lot of metallic sounds. The clothes still remain in the maid's clothes look outside, but many tubes and wires connect to the gun they are holding.
The leader maid points the gun under the sand and shouts out loud.
-Aim at the target!!!
Sister Theresa can't help but comments out loud.
-Can they see the reaper?
At the same time...
-Fireeeeeeee!!!
As they start shooting, many laser rays come out of the gun and fly to the ground.
After a while, I can no longer see any pincer coming from under the ground. At the same time, the maid's uniform return to normal.
-Target exterminated.
