Chapter 14: 14

14 – A Knight in Another World

“Kenya, you stay here and stop the KOG, if it appears.”

“Understood.”

Basically, Isshin and his men will take over the transport ship.

In close combat, the highly skilled Isshin. can never be defeated by a simple transport security team.

However, if the KOG appears, the war situation will change drastically.

That’s what Kenya is for. That’s what KOG is for.

***

“It’s begun. ”

He feels his heartbeat. It’s beating so fast and understands that he is now on the battlefield.

I never thought I would be taking a life, though.

“Gunshots…. Are people dying?”

I don’t really feel it.

But I hear gunshots.

In other words, people are dying.

Maybe it is someone I shook hands with today. Perhaps it is Isshin-san.

My heart is stirring with some understanding of that fact.

“You didn’t even have to come here Kaguya…”

Kaguya was not on board but participated in the operation.

She was piloting the ship and doing miscellaneous tasks.

She should be in the cockpit now.

I wanted this.

I thought, I’d be fine, but it seems, I was too naive.

“Don’t you dare! You losers!.”

Right then, one KOG landed on the transport ship.

Then Kenya has only one thing to do.

“Operation, begin!”

He connects to Isshin over the radio and reports on the start of the operation.

–Am I going to kill people now, …… really?

I have not lost my resolve.

Protect Kaguya, defeat the opponent.

I have not lost that determination.

Even now, I don’t think it was a mistake to join the resistance.

But do I even have a reason to kill people here?

Do I have a reason to kill Empire people?

But if I don’t do it, Isshin-san and the others, Kaguya’s loved ones will die.

That’s why I have to go to …

He repeats such answerless questions to himself.

Kenya, who lived in modern Japan, comes to the battlefield and kills people in a matter of days.

He can’t really feel the deed.

Even so, if he doesn’t do it now, the people that Kaguya wants to protect will die.

So I fought, I convinced myself that it was enough for now, and I forced myself to accept it.

–The only thing that helps is that I can’t see their faces.

The only thing that saved me was that I could fight through the KOG.

Because even if I’m not prepared, this is no different from anything that I have been doing.

Kenya then flew through the air and landed on a billboard.

“What?　Don’t tell me you guys also have the KOG!”

The people facing Kenya were official pilot who had properly graduated from the Military Academy.

They are genuine soldiers who are distinctly different from students.

However.

“What the!　This guy’s moving!　Don’t tell me he’s an ace-class!”

The KOG soldier of the Empire was dumbfounded, who instantly closed the gap and tried to attack Kenya.

“Don’t underestimate me!”

The enemy pulls out his sword and attacks.

However, it is easily caught and swept away by the sword drawn by Kenya.

“No way… this guy… how!”

My heart is still shaking, but my body moved on its own only with KOG.

Before I could even think about it, my body fought back on its own.

“Holy knight class?”

Then, with a returning sword, he strikes back with a single blow.

The cut surface creaked and the KOG exploded.

If there had been someone inside, or rather someone who definitely should have been there.

“… did I kill him?”

Kenya looks at the wreckage of the explosion.

He feels discomfort that he did not feel anything when he looked at the wreckage, where not even a shadow of a human being could be seen.

But the only fact gnawed firmly into Kenya’s heart.

“Operation’s over!　We are returning home!”

With the defeat of the escort KOG, the transport surrendered easily.

“Well done, Kenya.”

“…. Yes.”

–You don’t sound fine, is this your first kill?.. Then, that happens…

Isshin understood over the radio that Kenya. Whose voice was very faint.

I understand he shouldn’t leave him as it is now, but we don’t have time to spare right now.

“Activate all on-board KOGs!　Sail to your destination!”

Ten KOGs then flew into the sky.

Kenya flew to his destination, following behind him.

They will fly to the base, but not straight away, but will take a detour and take some time to get back from the mountains.

“….Shall we go back too?”

“Yeah!　Good work. Dad.”

The rest of Isshin, and his troops, under Kaguya’s direction, also returned to their bases.

The operation was then over.

***

At the same time, Headmaster’s Office, Military Training School No. 13, Empire.

“Still, why is Rod-sama here in the Military Training School?”

“If you say that, then why are you here too? You are a KOG pilot in the rank of head of the Holy Knights, who is also called the God of War.”

The two played chess across the desk.

The Asgar Empire has different ranks of pilots.

Starting with apprentices – in other words, students – then to knights are the common KOG pilots.

Above them is the unit commander, who is called the Knight Commander.

This is the basic rank.

However, a different title was given to pilots. Who are so broken, and can change the war situation, called ace-class pilots.

That is the holy knight.

As holy knights who protect the empire, they are respected and held in awe.

In the 13 training schools around the world, there may or may not be one per year at the level of a gem.

Further, up the ladder are the chiefs of the Holy Knights, of which there have only been a handful in history.

Sieg Sylphid, who was known as the best spear of the Empire, was one of those chief holy knights.

This was the result of a talented Holy Knight who grew up on the battlefield, crawling under the line of death.

He was called the chief holy knight of the strongest rank in the empire.

“You’re a strong, though. I play it for fun, but…”

“But only on the board. It’s a far cry from real warfare.”

“But you like it, don’t you?”

“Yeah, it’s good for exercising my brain.”

“Hahaha. It’s a bit of a challenge, isn’t it, to be the best in the Empire?”

The two chess players, not that Zeke is cutting corners because Rod is royalty.

The second prince, Rod, is just too strong. He is called the genius of warfare and the devil’s brain of the imperial family.

“But I’m more envious of you guys who can ride KOGs. Because over there it’s quite boring.”

“A competent commander is sometimes more valuable than ten thousand men.”

“Yes, but only by giving orders and from a safe zone, at least I don’t have to get my hands dirty. Well, if I go to the front, I’ll be dead in an instant.”

“You’re joking….”

“So why are you here?”

“hmmm, … I’m here for…?”

Seeing Zeke not wanting to talk any further, Rod understood, and he didn’t get angry, instead decided to change the subject.

“My purpose, you see. I’m looking for. A strong pilot, a rough gemstone.”

“A strong… pilot?　So you’ve been all over the world?”

“Yes, for a purpose. All over the world, I thought. But I finally found it.”

“Oh, can I ask you about that, ……?”

“Hmm, I can’t talk about that.”

Zeke is given the short end of the stick.

He’s a boy not even half his age, but it’s as if he’s talking to the Emperor.

“It’s as if I’m talking to the Emperor. Even though you are not much older than my daughter.”

“Zeke, do you know how to make a man grow up?”

“? … it’s not by age, is it?”

“The best way to make one grow up.”

And Rod moves the chess pieces.

“Throw them in hell… Checkmate.”

Then a soldier walks into the room.

“Excuse me!　General Sieg I have an urgent announcement…”

The soldier glances at Rod.

“It doesn’t matter, just keep talking.”

“Ten KOGs have been seized by the transports due to arrive today. They are probably Japanese, of the third class.”

“What?　There was a KOG on watch on board, wasn’t there?”

“There was one KOG. The escort was defeated. From the video footage, it appears that the enemy is at least of the Holy Knight class.”

The warlord frowned at the report.

Terrorist acts themselves are not that unusual.

However, it was the first time someone had used the KOG and moreover, surpassed the skill of a regularly trained Imperial pilot.

The image was fleeting, but it was clear that the pilot was undoubtedly a first-class skilled pilot.

“It’s been a long time since the Empire has suffered so much damage from a terrorist attack. Shall I do my duty as a member of the Imperial Family?”

Then Zeke, stood up.

“Rod-sama himself?”

“It’s also my responsibility to level the Special Zone, and besides, I have some things on my mind.”

“Yes, sir.”

Zeke, stands up and looks at Rod as he leaves the room.

“That’s the same age as my daughter. … If the Emperor’s Majesty collapses, the next Rod-sama would be a safe bet.”

Rod’s father.

The 98th Emperor of the Asgard Empire, Asgard Olgode, is ill.

He has been on the sickbed for a year now, since last year, and the war of aggression against the world has been temporarily suspended because of his illness.

The emperor has already been told that he won’t live much longer.

The Empire, it has now turned into a battle for the heir to the throne.

The emperor had three children.

First Prince Asgard Odin.

First Princess Asgard Ymir.

And the youngest, Asgard Rod.

Of the three, he is the most feared of all the three, by the world.

Called the Devil’s Brain, his near-future-sighted strategy led him to victory in every battle in which he appeared.

The Empire, which divided the world into three parts, the Asian Union, and the European Union.

It was he who had taken the lands of the EU and turned half the world into the Asgar Empire.

“A genius of warfare, I see… He’s terrifying.”
