老师你下面太紧了拔不出来

"The Head and Sir Daisuke are..."

The same phrases escaped the mouths of the five Elite Members.

Well, of course, anyone would have the same reaction when they heard and saw Nysia\'s reactions to my words. Only I would have the gall to call her by name like that.

Err.. I also kinda blurted it out when I saw her worried face. This girl just worries too much, maybe it will ease up when I finally become a Transcendent like her.

"I told you to hold your position."

Not minding the five and not closing the communication with them, Nysia grumbled to me.

"Err… Circumstances. We would be surrounded if we didn\'t move."

"Haa. You\'ll go back with me later, alright?"

With a sigh, she accepted my reason before asking another question.

"Sure. I\'ll hitchhike there, it would be nice to ride an Ultimate Metagen. I\'ll give you a massage as payment."

I nodded and smiled at her. And I felt that\'s not enough, I teased her to release some tension.

Hearing that, Nysia blushed through the screen. Before she could form a smile, she pouted her lips.

"Don\'t make me smile at this time, idiot. I\'m turning this off. And you five. Never speak of this to anyone else, understand?"

This girl, she purposely let them hear our conversation. That just shows how she wanted our relationship to be known by others but due to circumstances, we couldn\'t yet.

"Y-yes!"

The five Elite Members saluted and stuttered as they acknowledged her order.

"Sir Daisuke… you and the League Head."

Dali asked while the other four looked so eager to hear my answer, the previous tension they had was already gone from their faces.

"Un. It\'s like that, so I don\'t need to repeat what she said, right?"

I nodded and made the tone of my voice turn cold.

"Yes! I see. That\'s why you believe we\'ll survive in an hour."

Well, I let them think like that. For now, with the focus of the enemies turned to her, the Metagens chasing us started to retreat.

Nysia\'s Metagen was known to everyone, be it those who live under the three factions or even the vagrants who lived outside the civilization. No one will mistake that Sanguine Aegis as any other Metagen.

Compared to a normal Metagen, its height reached 15 meters, a reddish-pink giant metal robot with a womanly figure, it\'s almost like how Amry\'s Metagen was built, except the Sanguine Aegis is bigger. Furthermore, it didn\'t have any other weapon attached to it except a huge Morning Star, the spikes on it are made from Pure Regenium just like my sword. One bash from it when it is coated by her ability can easily break the defenses put up by the enemy and mercilessly bash into it ignoring the hardness of any armor.

Her Defense Manipulation can be applied to almost anything but of course, there are certain limitations to it.

Because of her complete trust in me, she told me the skills she got from her ability starting from Armor Control until it evolved up to Defense Manipulation.

Enhance or Reduce Armor at Silver-rank, Armor Empowerment at Gold-rank, Defense Amplification at Diamond-rank, Shield Mimicry at Legend-rank and when she reached Mythic-rank Defense Penetration or Protection.

She told me that every time it evolved, it would enhance the previous skills to keep up with her strength. Using all that Skills along with the Orb of Reinforcement, she became impenetrable. Well, not really impenetrable but she just completely mastered the use of her abilities to suit her combat style.

She\'s still at least a kilometer away but the aura she\'s exuding was enough to make the standard Metagens almost trip on their own feet. When she reached them, every one hit from her weapon, two or three standard Metagens would explode, ignoring the hardness and regeneration property of a regenium.

"Good, good, good. Colluding with and feeding the Darkbugs. Let me sentence you all to death! You even had the gall to…"

When she\'s done, dealing with those who were late at retreating, Nysia\'s voice filled the air. She already saw the Darkgens at the distance and that was enough evidence for her.

Her voice was already bone-chilling but when she added that last sentence, even if she didn\'t complete it, it\'s like the Horror personified to the enemies.

The two Specialized Metagens who were chasing after me also started to fall back. No matter how strong they are or how many they are, they\'ll be scrap metals in front of her.

Not even the three Mythic-ranks of the three factions could put a dent on her Metagen, what more a bunch of standard Metagen and few Specialized Metagen.

With the appearance of Nysia, even the slight danger that I was feeling earlier was already gone.

That guy who seemed to be Rank SSS+ also cowered away as he started his own retreat.

Upon seeing that, I started another communication channel to Nysia. This time, just for the two of us.

"Nysia. That one Metagen who seemed to be their leader. Don\'t let him get away as well as the other Specialized Metagens. Ah. Wait. I\'ll deal with those two."

"Don\'t you need to rest? Leave these small fries to me."

"I\'m your Companion, you know? I won\'t let you do all the work."

"Stubborn."

Err… Am I stubborn? Maybe… I can\'t find a word to retort on that.

"You became silent, stubborn guy. Take care, alright?"

"Yes ma\'am."

Hearing my answer, Nysia giggled and it was about to turn into a laughing fit if she didn\'t stop it by putting a hand on her mouth.

With slight tears due to preventing her laugh, Nysia glared at me.

"Keep this open, stubborn guy. I\'ll go on ahead."

"Be careful too. Don\'t underestimate the Dark World."

"Yes sir!"

With her answer which mimicked how I answered, we failed to contain our laugh anymore. It\'s a rare occurrence so we laugh it out until we become satisfied.

If not for our current situation I would like to flirt with her a bit longer.

Well, that could wait. We still need answers.

With Nysia here, if no other Mythic-rank arrived then we could shut this down. They might sacrifice themselves without spilling any beans to protect who\'s behind them but at least the one Black Market catering to the Darkgens will be closed.

Having decided our course of action, Nysia flew straight to that one specific Metagen who stood proudly earlier while decimating anything she passed through. The speed of that reddish-pink Metagen could rival those light-armored Specialized Metagens which focuses on speed. Without any other Mythic-rank, the Sanguine Aegis was unstoppable.

Shaking my head as I watched her dominate the area, I turned my focus to the golden-winged and silver Metagens.

I don\'t know where the other Metagen is but considering how severely damaged it was earlier, it\'s no wonder that it wouldn\'t be able to go back to this battlefield.

After instructing the 5 Elite Members to hide themselves or make themselves useful by cleaning up those who were only using a Powergen, I left their side again. That\'s already easy, I could only facepalm if they were put to another kind of danger again.

"Should I capture the Pilots, Nysia?"

"Yes. By piloting a Specialized Metagen, they\'re high rank enough to know some things. But if it will put you to danger, just kill them."

"Roger."

Activating my Energy Amplification again, Elusive Steps transported me on top of the two Metagen. Unaware at first, they both looked up and could only see my foot kicking down to pummel one of them. That certain foot was already covered with Energy Explosion.

Choosing one of the two, I targeted the golden-winged Metagen, specifically its shoulder where I could also hit his wings.

Boom! Boom!

Two explosions sounded out upon contact, one on its wing and one on its shoulder. But that\'s just the start.

Inputting more commands to the Purple Haze, it did some human-like flip and kicked once more which the golden-winged Metagen blocked with his Metagen\'s palm.

Boom!

And another explosion.

Only when I landed on the ground did the two manage to react.

They were surprised at Nysia\'s appearance that they forgot about my capabilities; severely damaging their comrade in a blink of an eye.

With those two kicks, the golden-winged Metagen was thrown backwards which left the silver Metagen and me in a faceoff.

Its Pilot is a woman and someone with that thunderbolt ability. This time, she didn\'t call for another thunder cloud. Instead, she just generated new thunders using her Meta Energy.

With the two of them already put at a disadvantage, I dodged multiple times while using everything I could think of, placing my skills and using it at the right moment.

Just like when I sparred with Avelin and Erin which I could only recall through the memories of the Incarnation, the two Metagens have teamed up to deal with me.

Though I could be hit by them occasionally, most of the damage was abated by the Energy Shield which will be returned to them by Energy Explosions or Energy Slash. Air Bullets and Magic Missiles were also put into the equation.

Also, along with the purple smoke that kept on spewing out of the Purple Haze, the damage that I should\'ve received in full was reduced to almost nonexistent or to a minimum damage due to their failing accuracy.

And all of that without them noticing the two Energy Threads attached to their backs.

Err… Maybe they already noticed but they\'re too worked up with their frustrations of not dealing a lot of damage to me which led to them focusing on taking me down instead of cutting off the Energy Threads.

Unfortunately, at this point, it wouldn\'t happen if there were only two of them. If only they still had that ice-blue Metagen with them then I would have no choice but to keep on retreating to bide my time.

10 minutes into our heated battle. The Purple Haze which I controlled jumped away. It already got some dents and some blackened area due to the focused thunderbolts and the golden-winged Metagen\'s physical ability which could create more of those feathers that he could enlarge or sharpen.

Yeah, it\'s already banged up a bit, however, the same couldn\'t be said to them. The two were already sluggish in their movements that even without using any ability I could now dodge them.

And another 5 minutes after that, the two Metagens were now kneeling in front of me with their engines turned off, the Pilots\' Meta Energy reserves were all but depleted.

After determining that the battle is over, I opened my communication channel to talk to the two pilots.

"Surrender now or die here, your choice."

Delivering that declaration through the communication channel, the current situation which started with us being surrounded has now turned to this reversal.

I didn\'t receive any reply, however, a few seconds later, the cockpits of the two Metagen opened which revealed two purple haired women with their hands up in the air, both of them were weakened from the depleted energy. Sisters or twins? Well, I couldn\'t care less any more.

I might\'ve cheated by having Nysia come here but hey, I didn\'t tell her to come when I reported. In any case, nothing wrong with using all available resources, right?
