The first thing I had to do was clean up the annoying things that clung to my body.

After finishing the preparation, I first hit them at my feet with [Explosion III] and blow myself and the bats away.

Another cloud of smoke billows up, but I step out of the smoke and look up.

The bat-woman is still fluttering around.

Around her were human-sized bats -chiroptera-, I think?

I want to attack her, but is she a little far away? I activate multiple [Fireball II]. The number is 5.

I fire them at the bat-woman in rapid succession.

I hit the surrounding bats, but I couldn't hit the bat-woman at all.

"Look, look, if you don't do something soon, you'll die!"

The bat-woman is always shooting ultrasonic waves one after another, and even if I try to hit her right after they are fired, she is always moving out her small fry to kill any chance I might have.

This fellow must be always attacking one-sidedly from a high place like this.

Surely most people would be stuffed in this situation.

...if they can't fly.

"If you surrender, I'll only spare your life ......!?"

I fly at once with [Flight] and slam my fist into the face of the bat-woman who is talking so proudly.

"But..."

The bat-woman who was hit loses her balance in the air, but she tries to regain it by flapping her wings.

I'm not going to let you do that.

I open the club monster and activate the gimmick.

Change the shears to blades. In short, it's a nipper. For now, let's have her cry goodbye to the lower half of her body.

"You..."

The bat-woman stops flapping her wings just before she is caught and falls.

The shears only cut off part of her ear, but the body was unharmed.

Nicely dodged.

I release my magic too and free fall.

I grab the bat-woman from behind.

"Oh!? Get off..."

She turns her head toward me and opens her mouth, but I don't let her.

I grab her by the back of the head and hold her so she can't turn around.

The bat-woman tries to position herself in the air with me attached to her back...

"Heavy! How much do you weigh with that weapon!?"

I don't know, I think it weighs over 100kg, but I haven't weighed it.

If you can't fly, just fall off.

"Get off me! You're not going to get away with this."

Impact. Roar.

The bat-woman slammed to the ground, her bones crushed and broken under me, spewing blood and vomit.

"Oh, gee..."

I also took a fair amount of damage, but it's not a problem.

It was relatively light thanks to the bat-woman who was under it and acted as a shield.

The wings bent at an unnatural angle... arms? Well, let's just call it an arm.

After grabbing it, I put my foot on her shoulder and ripped it off.

The bat-woman screams and thrashes around.

She's so noisy.

Her screams were so shrill that I had to shove the tip of my shoe in her mouth to shut her up.

But still, it went more easily than I thought it would.

I had prepared a few more moves, but they went to waste.

Well... At least she's still alive.

Let's take her memory. I haven't given her a fatal wound this time, so I think I can do it...

I tried to reach for the bat-woman's head, but suddenly the back of her neck was ripped open in two places, exposing the inside.

No, it's not ripped, it's open.

The inside looked more like the gills of a fish than flesh.

[Cathedral Knight "Etranger" Todo Masataka]

[Stephanie.]

Buckethead, you're doing a great job with the name. Have you practiced it?

And what's Etrunz?

And by the way, she's Japanese, right? Why Stephanie? Is that her real name?

If it's not her real name, she's very brazen. An actress, huh?

Anyway, those two have started to fight.

What should I do?

Well, you know what? I'll just wait and see.

I decided not to get up and just pretend to be knocked out.

The knight of the cathedral attacks the confronting monster, raising the war hammer in his hand.

"--. ----!"

The monster jumped up, flapping the wings of its arms as it spoke.

I, Elisa, watched the battle between the two with bated breath.

The knight of the cathedral carried me to safety and immediately returned to the favela.

I'm sorry for the help you gave me, but I have somewhere I have to go.

I returned to the favela after the cathedral knight so as not to be noticed.

The man was probably headed for the far end of the battlefield.

Since the hidden passageway to get through the city walls is at the far end of the favela, it would be best to follow him.

As we proceeded, keeping a certain distance from him while hiding, I heard a tremendous noise.

I immediately covered my ears and crouched down.

The cathedral knight, perhaps sensing something from the sound, started running in the direction he had heard it.

I hurriedly followed him, and although I heard the sound several times on the way, I covered my ears and let it pass.

After a while, I arrived at a place where I found a mysterious monster and an unforgettable shadow - Roe.

Roe was lying in the wreckage of a nearby house, not moving a muscle.

Due to the distance and the inhibiting tool, it is unclear whether he is alive or dead, but it seems that he has at least some not-so-shallow wounds.

I was tempted to go in and finish him off, but I restrained myself to avoid getting caught up in the battle.

It looked as if he could not move, so I took him out of my sight and turned my gaze toward the cathedral knight who was fighting.

The first move was made by the cathedral knight. He swung his war hammer in his hand to trace the ground.

Instantly, the ground was heaped up. Dirt, stones, and the wreckage of houses hit the monster like a wave.

"'--. --"

That sound echoes through the air, and something like a shock spreads all around.

"Whoa..."

It reached me, who was supposed to be far enough away, and I staggered a little.

But the cathedral knight, who would have been closer in, was not intimidated at all, and moved forward.

When he got close enough, he stopped and held his hammer with both arms and swung it down.

The opponent is in the sky. There was nothing at the end of his swing. However, there was a dull sound and the monster fell.

I had no idea what it had done, but I wondered if it was the ability of the ...... war hammer.

The other side is not so different. Before falling to the ground, it flapped its wings to regain its stance, opened its mouth wide, and roared.

An invisible attack struck the cathedral knight. He moved forward further, shielding himself with one arm.

Somehow, the surrounding objects were cut into pieces, yet not a single scratch was left on his armor.

Some of the cut objects, such as rocks, could not be cut by ordinary means, which showed the severity of the monster's attack.

The armors that were unscathed after being hit by them were also not so lucky....

From the looks of it, both sides seemed to be lacking in decisive moves.

The cathedral knight has not been able to attack the monster effectively. The monster is also unable to attack to break through the cathedral knight's defense.

The battle is likely to continue for a while.

If I were to move, it would have to be now.

I decided to go ahead, bypassing the battle between the two while hiding myself.

I had to somehow join up with my sisters....

There were battles happening all over the place, not just in front of me.

I knew my sisters would not be killed so easily, but I was still worried about them.

I quietly left the place and hurried to the outer wall of the city.
