Story Puerto Rico.png
Puerto Rico
"ATTENTION~! GILLMEN, I WANT YOU TO HEAR MY VOICE NO!"
Kicking off and leaping like a bullet, Puerto Rico let out a loud voice that almost ruptured my eardrums. No wonder she's a politician, her well-trained voice echoed in every corner of the hall.
Story Puerto Rico.png
Puerto Rico
"This is a place to dream of a prosperous future for all, and for the realization of peace, as such I will not tolerate any further mischief in the Underwater Temple no! I have no more patience, and I'd even use the Buddha's face as a punching bag! Do you understand!?"
Story Monster.png
Gillmen
"Gulp gulp...?"
Puerto Rico's rather unintelligible statement has left the gillmen perplexed. For a diversion, it's a great success ―― Meanwhile, we sneaked across the shadows and approach the altar.
Story Puerto Rico.png
Puerto Rico
"You! You there! What do you think politics is?"
Story Monster.png
Gillman
"Gulpgulp, gulp...?"
Story Puerto Rico.png
Puerto Rico
"Yes! You don't know no! Because politics is a system for supporting and improving people's lives no! In other words, the main premise is to think hard about life, which has no right answers――"
Story Puerto Rico.png
Puerto Rico
"Which means, it's normal not to find the answer no! Saying 'I don't know' is the right answer no!"
Story Puerto Rico.png
Puerto Rico
"However, we won't give up ―― and it doesn't mean that politics are useless no! Hey, don't you think so too?"
Story Monster.png
Gillman
"Gulp, gulp――"
Story Puerto Rico.png
Puerto Rico
Yes, it's you! In this society, in this world, everyone is a protagonist! Everyone can't be someone else, and everyone is allowed to live in their very own fascinating stories!"
Story Puerto Rico.png
Puerto Rico
"We are never Gods ―― meaning, we are not the writers no! But, we are characters in the same story as you, and we are trying to make the story come alive together no! Please understand that, support us, and refrain from behaving in a way that ruins the story..."
Puerto Rico's narrative is fluent, as she is probably used to giving such speeches on a regular basis.
The content is mostly fluff and therefore difficult to understand however ―― Perhaps because the gillmen were able to have a conversation with her, they got distracted thinking about the meaning of what she said.
Story Putra.png
Putra
"Queensway! Sorry, I came late to save you...!"
So with little effort, we made it to the altar without anyone interrupting us. The nearby gillmen gulped and hurriedly pointed their weapons at us ―― but it was too late for them.
Story Yakutsk.png
Yakutsk
"Conductor! Everyone is safe, everyone is alive! They are only briefly restrained and can be released in five seconds!"
Quickly and precisely, Yakutsk took action and reported back. True to her word, she pulled out a utility knife and cut the ropes that bound the limbs of the three unconscious people.
Story Putra.png
Putra
"Phew♪ That's an Eisengradian soldier alright, they're the best in the world when it comes to efficient, micro movements!"
Story Putra.png
Putra
"And also, we Flamarinian soldiers are the best in the world when it comes to rough, macro movemeeeeents!"
Shouting innocently in high spirits, Putra swung her long spear with her hand mightily. The gillmen who were trying to approach us were blown away comically.
Story Putra.png
Putra
"Howzzat!? Brilliant, daring, and amusing, amirite? That's who! We! are! The Flamarinians! YAAHOOOOOOOOO~☆"
Story Yakutsk.png
Yakutsk
"I'll cover you, Putra! Conductor, please take care of Queensway and the other two!"
Yakutsk, still judging the situation accurately, swungs her whip and took out the enemies that Putra had missed. The two are always the complete opposites in terms of character and behaviour, but that's why they are so strong when they are in sync with each other.
Story Yakutsk.png
Yakutsk
"Look, if you're scared, just shut your eyes♪"
Story Putra.png
Putra
"Mhm mhm, or get into your bed and go to sleep! SLEEEP TIIIIGHT☆"
Yakutsk swung her whip and accurately struck both eyes of her enemies, blinding their vision, while Putra smashed those who left an opening with her spear. In no time at all, the girls were surrounded by corpses of fallen enemies.
Story Yakutsk.png
Yakutsk
"Hmmhmm♪ How's that? This is the Eisengrad Army's fighting technique! 'Check with the whip, kill with the gun' ―― it makes sense, only this time it's not the gun, but Putra's spear!"
Story Putra.png
Putra
"Ahaha! Yakky-tan, you're so precise♪ But I love that about you~! We have something each other doesn't have, so we can be best friends and fill in both our missing pieces!"
Story Yakutsk.png
Yakutsk
"Aiyeeh, stop talking nonsense and concentrate already! Idiot!"
Story Queensway.png
Queensway
"――It's not fair for the two of you to just sneakily become 'best friends'. I'm going to tell Miss Vivienne and the others later, so be fair about everything please."
Story Putra.png
Putra
"Ngahh, Queensway, you're awake? Uwaaah, finally...♪"
Story Queensway.png
Queensway
"Hmhmm. I mean, I've been conscious for a while now. I'm sorry for worrying you, but I couldn't move around in this situation――"
Story Monster.png
Gillman
"GULP GULP!"
Story Queensway.png
Queensway
"――Oopsie. Let's continue our conversation after we've properly completed our mission, shall we?"
With Queensway's hand firmly on the hilt of her sword, she made a sudden strike ―― The determined-looking gillman who was approaching her was cut down with a brilliant slash.
Story Queensway.png
Queensway
"A knight is a blade that protects what is important. As long as I am standing here, I will not let even a finger touch Conductor and everyone else."
Naypyidaw
"Queensway, here!"
Naypyidaw woke up of course, and pulled out a beautiful sword that looked like a work of art from within the sheath it was wearing ―― She threw it towards Queensway.
Story Queensway.png
Queensway
"Whoops there? I just said 'a blade' ―― And you handed me an additional sword after that?"
Queensway received the sword in a perfect motion and brushed back her long, almost dishevelled black hair. At the same time, in a fluid gesture, she naturally pulled the sword she received from its sheath.
Story Queensway.png
Queensway
"Hmhmm. Well, whatever it is, the blade has a specific role to play. Protect what you love and defeat what is evil――"
Queensway naturally manipulates her own sword and the newly received sword. She may be unfamiliar with two swords, but there is no hesitation or disorder in her swordsmanship. She always knows exactly what she needs to do.
Story Queensway.png
Queensway
"Stubborn and single-minded! Fair and square! Royal road, easy land! Because I wield my sword in justice, there is nothing in this world that I cannot cut!"
Story Queensway.png
Queensway
"――That, is what a St. Irish soldier is! Phew, I've finally caught up with you two's conversation♪"
Story Yakutsk.png
Yakutsk
"No uh, this isn't obligatory, you don't have to go out of your way to match your statements with ours."
Story Putra.png
Putra
"Heh, we were just shouting along."
Story Queensway.png
Queensway
"Hmhmm. It's fine - We are the SSS created by the give nations working hand in hand, let's get in line♪"
Story Naypyidaw.png
Naypyidaw
"Sorry, Queensway. I'm glad you're having fun, but... I wanted you to pass the sword I threw at you to my elder sister."
Story Queensway.png
Queensway
"Hmm. Elder sister... You mean Her Majesty Puerto Rico, right?"
Suddenly regaining her composure, Queensway looked around the battlefield somewhat hurriedly. Beyond the large number of gillmen still present―― She saw Puerto Rico, alone and acting as a decoy, being surrounded by the enemy and having difficulties.
Story Queensway.png
Queensway
"Oh? That actually looks bad huh...?"
Story Naypyidaw.png
Naypyidaw
"Yeah, so throw her the weapon quickly! It's pretty hard for me to do that with my arm strength, so I'll leave it to you!"
Story Dr. Gloria.png
Dr. Gloria
"But Do-Doctor wants you to help her please! Lady Puerto Rico was in jail because of Doctor ―― and they confiscated her weapon no!"
Story Queensway.png
Queensway
"Oh? Aren't you from the Doggan Gang's...?"
Story Dr. Gloria.png
Dr. Gloria
"Don't worry about Doctor now! QUICKLY! She's unarmed and outnumbered like that and no matter how strong Lady Puerto Rico is she's going to die if you don't no!"
Doctor looked worried as she said this, but in fact, Puerto Rico seemed to be able to fight quite well even with her bare fists.
Story Puerto Rico.png
Puerto Rico
"Hmhmm♪ if you think that I'm not good at battles because I'm a politician, you're wrong no!"
She appears to basically be on the run, but whenever an enemy carelessly thrusted a weapon at her, she narrowly avoided them ―― She can even lure their attacks with her hair, then grab their weapons and stab them back at her opponents.
Story Queensway.png
Queensway
"That's fantastic. That is a move to expect from someone who knows how to use a sword, and I'd like to do so someday."
Story Queensway.png
Queensway
"But well, let's leave all unnecessary thoughts behind for now! I will grant the wish of an innocent child and offer my own assistance!"
Queensway roared her battle cry and did as she was asked, throwing her sword and charging into the crowd of enemies herself.
She has no hesitation whatsoever. Unlike the rational Yakutsk and the emotional Putra, she is a St. Irish soldier that goes straight for justice directly.
Story Putra.png
Putra
"Us too!"
Story Yakutsk.png
Yakutsk
"Yeah, of course!"
Queensway took up position in the middle, while Putra and Yakutsk charged in on both wings. No one could stop any longer ―― I was so impressed by the strength of the SSS members I was leading, and their growth, that I almost cried.
They are strong, beautiful and brilliant, and I am truly proud of them.
Story Dr. Gloria.png
Dr. Gloria
"............"
Only Dr. Gloria bit her lower lip, she stared at me with her expression complicated. As for what she is carrying, I am still only able to grasp a small portion of it.
The problems are piling up and the situation is ongoing. But it will be all right. With everyone in the SSS, who are like miracles themselves―― We can overcome any difficulty.
Story Naypyidaw.png
Naypyidaw
"Hmhmm. Look like we're near the end, a big circle. The enemy doesn't seem to be able to read the room and is trying to make a last stand."
What is he thinking as well? ―― Naypyidaw, the court mage who I didn't notice where or what he was doing until now, closed one eye playfully and muttered.
Beyond Naypyidaw's line of sight ―― A location slightly away from the altar where we are, the gillmen that were dressed in ritual costumes were chanting in frightening voices.
Immediately afterwards, their whole bodies bursted like water balloons, and their splattered blood drew patterns on the ground. It was a magic circle marked in blood ―― From their centre, something like a writhing tentacle grew outwards.
Story Naypyidaw.png
Naypyidaw
"Hmm. I guess it's an evil god, a powerful monster that sometimes arises from underwater ruins. As soon as they appear, they release a large amount of Phantom Mist, so as soon as we find them - we get rid of them."
Story Naypyidaw.png
Naypyidaw
"The sea is huge. It's hard to get around and we tend to be late in dealing with them. We'll reflect on it and make the most of it next time ―― It's part of the nature of the sea to filter out any malice and monsters, melt them down and clean them up."
Story Naypyidaw.png
Naypyidaw
"'Don't say things you don't understand, bro, let's defeat the evil god! There's no way we'll just stand here if we're just unilaterally helped by the SSS, right?'"
They plays two roles, using different tones and speaking to themselves in a strange 'soliloquy'... Naypyidaw held up their uniquely shaped staff and faced the giant evil god rising from the magic circle.
Story Naypyidaw.png
Naypyidaw
"Well, well. Good grief, I'm going to enjoy working overtime today... Myselves are the hardest workers in Flamarine."
