107 – Chapter 35. Civil War – 4
– 108 –
Earth Sphere is a weapon made with a minor copy of Sidewinder.
The manastones that go into the sidewinder cannot be created with modern technology, so the latest magic formula is hammered into a manastone of a similar type, and the performance was better than expected.
The role of this weapon is ‘tracking high-speed objects’, and the pursuit magic and active evasion magic formula for him are engraved.
The destructive power was weaker than the sidewinder because the magic had developed a lot more than in the past, but the speed and tracking performance were rather better.
That meant that you might have an advantage over a sidewinder when fighting fast enemy fighters.
A blast of Earthspheres fired from more than 10 helicopters fell on the enemy fighter squadrons.
After one engagement, the fighters scattered around without even counterattacking as they were still loaded with weapons.
In the meantime, two fighter jets hit by the Earth Sphere fell to the ground, blowing smoke from their tails.
I couldn’t help but be happy.
The fighter that was protecting us was turning and returning from afar, but it was far away, and we could not expect any support from the ground.
Because it was a battle that took the lives of me and my friends, I decided to develop a countermeasure prepared in advance.
“From Seraph 1 to all the troops. Expand the fighter-response formation! We will take the lead.”
「Larger!」
Helicopters began to line up according to my instructions.
Then he turned his nose to where the enemy fighter squadron was.
It was the helicopter that Zermia and I were on at the forefront.
After the turn, the enemy fighter squadron began to fly.
The number is about a dozen.
Seeing the magical powers in the armaments on their wings, I checked the location of the allies on the map the spirit had floated.
Okay. Everyone is well gathered behind me.
Helicopters that lined up behind me and Chermia’s helicopters began to load the Earth Sphere again.
We at the forefront and the two helicopters behind us turned all the power of the wind spirits towards the defense.
The three helicopters with their defenses raised to the maximum were arranged in a narrow triangular shape, and we met the enemy as a single large arrow.
The magic and rockets fired from the fighter were pouring out.
Despite the attack that flew in front of her, Chermia calmly moved the helicopter and let out several attacks.
Of course, most of the attacks were unilaterally beaten, but they were already prepared.
“Everyone come out!”
[[Yes!]]
The spirits of my direct subordinates, protruding from the pendant in my hand, started to reinforce the shield.
Front, left, right, up, down.
When the attack from all directions was over, smoke was coming out of the right wing where the armament was mounted.
But I persevered.
Helicopters right behind them also seemed to have blocked them from attacking behind them.
There was little damage.
I was able to further reduce the number of enemy fighters by counterattacking with the Earth Sphere.
Before I came here, I had done quite a few simulations of fighting a fighter squadron, so the response was smooth.
Helicopters that spread sideways in unison threw Earth spheres at the tails of the fighters passing behind, and then started lowering the altitude all at once.
I was able to block it the first time, but it was difficult the second time.
Leave the rest to the battles between fighters.
We have to hide out of sight until a decision is made.
Reinforcements are also coming, and the specs of the fighters themselves aren’t too far behind, so if you keep fighting, you’ll win.
However, there will be a loss of precious fighters and valuable pilots.

Pilot proficiency will vary considerably, so they may run away after only taking a lot of damage.
When she summoned her spirits again, Chermia turned her head slightly.
“Are you going?”
“Yes.”
“…… Go safely.”
Chermia was staring at her in front of her as if nothing had happened, but her voice was filled with concern.
I raised her right hand and saluted playfully.
“Rager.”
When I came down to the ground and took out the main body, some of my friends were surprised, and the kids who had already been together for several months began to explain.
The first helicopter relic found around this time last year.
Those who first found out that it was a silver helicopter in front of them were even more surprised.
Wave one hand at them and then climbed onto the body.
[[Captain. Jumping into a fighter plane…….]]
“Crazy?”

Put on the seat belt and start the engine.
[[No, it would be fun.]]
“Hmm.”
The rotor turns.
“By the way, is the stomach fighting well? Reconnaissance magic.”
[[Larger.]]
A map is displayed in the corner of the front window.
Allied and enemy fighters were intersecting dizzyingly. It was literally a dog fight.

Pull the lever to start takeoff.
Suddenly, she turned her head and looked around to see her friends saluting.
Just hide quickly.
Cermia knows how to lead it well.
After returning to them, he immediately increased his altitude.
Toward the battlefield in the air, where fighters and magic fly in a mess.
The Crown Prince’s fighter jet is the Holy King International, and as promised by the pope in the past, there is a prohibition on it.
In other words, even if I fire a random attack, it ends at a level where I get caught up a bit.
It was a really useful feature while fighting tangled up like now.
The fighters kept going down.
Most of them were Crown Prince’s fighters, and the pilots who escaped in an emergency were slowly descending with their parachutes out.
Be careful not to get caught up in them, and grasp the location of the enemies.
Just then, two enemy fighters were approaching from afar.
It’s a helicopter jumping into a fighter board.
Even like me, I wouldn’t miss this easy prey.
Besides, if it was a silver helicopter, wouldn’t it be on the wanted list of demons?
When I widened my field of vision, not two, but three or four were approaching this way.
The positions have been adjusted so that they can gather as much as possible.
Jeing-
A dark blue light beam from afar passed past the body.
I’m sorry, but unlike other helicopters, my body is very strong, so even if I attack properly, it won’t work.
Four fighters fly from the front.
It was more than half of the remaining ones.
All but the one that just attacked seemed to draw out terrifying magic.
It seems to be preparing for a strong attack.
In that case, it would be polite to prepare a big one for me too.
The power of fire was drawn from the huge magic stone mounted on the body.
The fire spirit sent magical energy to the Hellfire armament.
And mix my magic to control fire.
Following my memories of the Shinma War, I never used Hellfire ‘mod’ in the past.
It was a function that was basically installed in my body, but there was no reason to use it.
Because a much more sophisticated and powerful attack was possible.
The fire moved according to my will.
The dark red flames held by both wings ran through the sky free from oppression.
Two feet per unit. A total of eight fireballs attacked the demon fighters.
They were still gathering their magical power, and they quickly fired magic, probably bewildered by the attack.
It was a round sphere-shaped magic, but its speed was slow, so it was easy to avoid it by raising the altitude a little.
On the contrary, none of those who were directly hit by the Hellfire did not survive.
To be honest, the spread-chaser-like attack could not escape even if it rolled sideways with rolling, or even maneuvered the cobra.
Kwagwaang-!
A dark red flower of fire bloomed in the sky.
Just mixing Hellfire with real Hellfire doubles its power, but since it was hit twice by that, there was no way the mass-produced fighter could survive.
It was not moderately damaged and crashed, but fragments of shattered fighter jets burned and oxidized.
I saw other demon fighters trying to approach this direction turning.
“Sidewinder.”
[[Aye Sir!]]
Now was the time to attack because the speed was slow.
As soon as the loading was completed, I fired two sidewinders without hesitation.
At the same time, they approached the last one fighting the Crown Prince fighter.
The distance is enough to see each other’s faces.
Laughing at the man with a surprised expression on his human face, he pulled the lever of the chain gun.
Unfortunately, it was blocked by the enemy fighter’s shield, but the Crown Prince’s fighter succeeded in attacking from the rear and was finally able to shoot down all the enemies.
Some of the helicopter units were sent to transport the pilots of the Crown Prince who lost their fighters.
There were not many wounded, and there were some who did not come back to life due to a fatal attack.
Once I entered the airport of the city I just passed by for the transportation of pilots and communication with the Holy Kingdom.
On the runway, the Crown Prince’s soldiers were inspecting.
They were carrying stretchers to escort the wounded pilots.
While the convoy was in full swing, a slender man who looked like a captain approached.
“Hello. This is Major Rekoff, whom I communicated with earlier.”
“This is Selmeyer Helicopter Unit Captain Erif Cruel.”
After shaking hands with the major, he smiled softly.
“You should withdraw your statement that you will be disappointed.”
“Yes. I will withdraw.”
The major laughed out loud and cleared his throat after coughing as if he was conscious of the gaze around him.
He handed over the communicator that his subordinate was holding.
“Communication with the Holy Kingdom Army has been established. It is said that there is an attack in the city in front of this place.”
“If the right to air is lost, it will be difficult to access.”
The major said something into the communicator and nodded.
“They just look like they came from a different direction. They say they are fighting happily over the city right now.”
“Oh. Then you’re going to have to wait a little bit.”
“Well. The enemy ground forces on the southern front are not formidable, so the upper part is hoping that the helicopter units will soon join the Holy Kingdom Army.”
“Well.”
If there was a dogfight going on at the current junction, even if you got there, you almost had to hide.
However, I had to conserve my power because I didn’t know when a vampire would pop out, and if I join too late, the damage of my allies increases.
It would be best to head back a little south and join the Holy Kingdom’s forces directly.
You can move with the ground forces and only come out from the rear when necessary and remove the tanks.
After conveying the meaning, the major nodded.
“We will dispatch an escort unit as before.”
“Yes. Thank you.”
We parted after saluting.
After lunchtime was over, I had a meal with tasteless battle food, and then boarded the helicopter of Cermia.
“Guys. Let’s go.”
“Okay.”
“Can you arrive today?”
“Then. It will be about an hour.”
The fighter jets that were running fast along the runway took off through the wind.
The fighters with a large turn turned southeast.
We also flew up with them.
It will be quite spectacular to see dozens of weapons deployed in the cold winter sky.
Fortunately, I was able to reach the garrison of the Holy Kingdom Army without encountering demons.
“It seems there.”
I saw a flag with four colored circles symbolizing the Holy Kingdom.
It was nice to see a few helicopters lined up on one side of the vacant lot.
It was mostly for transport.
“This is Locke A. I will return after completing my mission.”
“This is Seraph 1. Thank you for the escort.”
After breaking up with the Crown Prince’s fighters, he was moving to land on an empty lot with helicopters, and he saw a familiar face.
“Huh?”
In the vacant lot used as a heliport, a saint was waving her hand toward this side.
