"Miss Aina! Are you okay!?"
Aina felt crushed when she heard Exce''s voice.
"E-Eh… Somehow I think..."
Aina tried to get up, but the damage done by Zhaviest left her wobbling on her feet. Exce lent her shoulder to Aina. Aina silently entrusted her body to Exce.
As she was being guided by Exce back behind the demon lines, Aina turned her head and looked back. She saw Suzuki''s figure, with an imposing stance facing against the flock of angels.
(Suzuki…)
She was angry at her own inability to join Suzuki, who stood on the front lines farther than anyone else in the Demon Lord''s army. However, under the present conditions, she was but a liability to Suzuki. There was no choice but to retreat.
Exce brought Aina to the position where the Thunder-Lance Charge was deployed. Nephira, themander of the Thunder-Lance Charge, somehow managed to maintain her posture by using her thunder spear as a walking cane.
"C-Can you move your body? Kiru?"
"I almost lost my self-consciousness because of Womanly-Suzuki''s cuteness but… one way or another, I''m fine!"
"All right! We will breach the enemy camp and protect Suzuki while trying not to look directly or closely at him!"
Then, after taking deep breaths and regting her breathing,
"Charge!!"
Nephira''s voice echoed across the Miremia ins. After a short dy, the raging battle cries of the demons followed.
Aina felt a chill down her spine when she heard the voices of Thunder-Lance Charge soldiers rushing toward her, shaking the earth.
(What vigor and sense of intimidation! This is the Thunder-Lance Charge, the special attack force directly under the control of the Demon Lord''s Army!)
The vanguard demons, led by Nephira, began to advance, closing the distance between them and therge army of floating angels.
On the other hand, Zhaviest''s side was nning to advance toward the Imperial Capital in the disorganized state they were in. Heaven and Earth, divided into two, the flock of angels marched forward in response to the demons'' charge.
How many casualties will there be between demons and humansbined? If the mes of war were to spread inside the Imperial Capital, more than a hundred thousand lives might be lost.
As Aina looked over both sides of the conflict, the three monsters she had seen with Leelou resurfaced in her mind.
Wouldn''t demons, angels, and even humans, everyone, be falling today? Feeling such anxiety, Aina closed her eyes. However, at that moment.
"Wait!"
Aina looked up when she heard Suzuki''s voice. Suzuki was facing the demons, holding one hand in the air as if to stop their march.
(Im-impossible! Geez…)
In this situation, there was no way to avoid a sh between the two armies. Contrary to the despondent Aina, who had given up all hope, Suzuki raised his voice.
"Can you hear me? Serphiano!"
<em ss="chakra-text css-0"><strong>"Y-Yes! I can hear you! That outfit, it is totally adobs— KYUTE!!"</strong></em>
"If that''s the case, I''m d! Can you project my image onto the crystal?"
Then Serphiano, inside the giant crystal, had a puzzled look on her face.
<em ss="chakra-text css-0"><strong>"O-Of course I can. It is possible if I use my magical power. But… If I do that, I won''t be able to give any orders to the demons…"</strong></em>
"I beg you, Serphiano! Focus all your giant crystals on me! Please!"
<em ss="chakra-text css-0"><strong>"Ah… Cute…! Even at a time like this, you''re a—dorable…!"</strong></em>
"Serphiano! Please hurry!"
<em ss="chakra-text css-0"><strong>"D-Dreadful! But cute—! ''DreadfullyCute''!"</strong></em>
After a short dy, Serphiano''s reflection in the giant crystal disappeared, and Suzuki''s entire body was projected in its ce. All the angels and demons looked up towards the giant crystals that Serphiano had ced at regr intervals tomand orders to all the demons.
(Suzuki… What in the, hell are you…?)
Still in his holy garment, Suzuki took a deep breath, then showed his chest a little. Then he crossed his outstretched arms in front of his chest. Aina swallowed hard.
(T-That gesture, could it be!)
Suzuki slowly opened his mouth.
"Pritis''s 48 Gestures—Twenty-Seventh Gesture, ''<em ss="chakra-text css-0">Push-Up Breast (Tit Persuasion)</em>''!"
Aina immediately looked around——— and then shuddered.
The floating angels had stopped moving all at once. Furthermore, the demon lord''s army, including the thundernce charge, were also wavering on their feet.
Suzuki''s pritis had left the battlefield in a state of nkness for a moment. However,
"Don''t you dare to stop mongrels! Get in there, angel troops! You want to be obliterated?!"
At Zhaviest''s cry, the angels resumed their march towards the Imperial Capital as if they had just remembered. From the sky toward thend, a flock of angels poured in like a thick cloudy miasma.
(N-Not good! They won''t stop, after all!)
Aina looked at Suzuki in despair. Suzuki was hunched over with a glint of light shining in his eye.
(I-It is not over yet! That was a series of consecutive pritis starting from Push-up Breast (Tit Persuasion)! In other words…!)
Aina couldn''t help but be surprised.
(My own certain death flow!)
Aina''s special signature move, which she had practiced over and over again. But now, with Suzuki in front of her eyes, Aina''s eyes reflected an even more refined gesture.
<em ss="chakra-text css-0">While still maintaining the position of the Push-up Breast (Tit Persuasion), lowering his hips enough, and bending over to create a smooth back-and-forth r-rocking</em>. He continued by gently outlining a heart in front of his chest with his fingers.
Aina''s eyes widened greatly at the sight of this wless gesture.
(I see, INDEED! That''s Pritis''s 48 Gestures—Forty-Seventh Gesture…!)
"—— Love Shot!"
Suzuki muttered. At the same time, from all the giant crystals installed at regr intervals, a tidal wave of peach-colored shockwaves generated… Aina had such a hallucination.
