The people cried out in alarm and wailed continuously.
No one could have predicted that, almost in an instant, the once peaceful and tranquil tourist town would be transformed into a living hell of ruins and flames.
"That is?!"
Erica, sword in hand, stared wide-eyed at the sudden incident. After quickly glancing at everyone, she gritted her teeth and ran towards the rampaging wild boar.
Compared to the android that trespassed into their territory and the handsome young man who seemed to be a war god and was currently quite well-behaved, the wild boar was clearly a greater threat.
We absolutely cannot allow that monster to continue slaughtering people!
"Hey, what exactly is that thing?"
Before Kusanagi Godou could even process what was happening, he saw the androids surrounding him exchange glances, their red eyes seemingly swirling with some kind of data, before nodding in unison and leaping towards the boar.
"Oh, everyone's over now. So what will the outcome be? Hmm, I'll have to see it all the way through. Kid, I had a great time today, so I'll leave my things with you for now. It was just a whim, but I'm quite interested to see what the results will be."
"Ugh?"
Kusanagi Godou turned his head to look, but the handsome young man had long since disappeared, leaving only his incomprehensible words drifting away in the wind.
"What exactly is that guy...?"
"Is this a wild boar?"
A calm voice that suddenly broke in from beside him caught Kusanagi Godou's attention.
"You are……"
The Japanese boy turned his head and saw a cute girl who looked about fourteen years old, wearing a pink light jacket and a short skirt.
Did you come to visit with your parents and then get separated?
Looking at the girl's delicate yet unfamiliar face, Kusanagi Godou thought to himself.
"Yes, it's quite large, but it's nowhere near as big as Gugalan."
The girl seemed completely oblivious to Kusanagi Godou, nodding and commenting to herself as she did so.
Of course, Kusanagi Godou couldn't understand the language the girl was speaking, and probably had no idea that the name she was referring to was a true monster capable of sinking the island in an instant.
"It's dangerous here, you'd better go and take refuge quickly."
Both the girl's age and her nonchalant attitude in the face of this great calamity made Godou uneasy. Moreover, the girl's appearance was more of an oriental style that made boys feel close to her, so Kusanagi Godou still loudly reminded her.
Only then did the girl seem to notice the boy's presence. Her somewhat dim silver eyes glanced at the anxious Kusanagi Godou, and the corners of her mouth suddenly curled up slightly.
Whether it was his imagination or not, Kusanagi Godou felt as if a few silver lights flashed in the girl's eyes.
However, the girl quickly looked away and then walked away as if taking a stroll, disappearing from the boy's sight before Godou could react.
"..."
Enough strange things had happened today, and the boy, who had originally intended to lead the girl to a safe place, was too lazy to continue being surprised.
The focus now is on the actions I should take.
Logically speaking, seeking refuge would be the best option, but Kusanagi Godou knew that it was pointless.
As long as the wild boars are not stopped, taking refuge only delays the time of death. This is not an ordinary natural disaster like an earthquake or flood; the structure of the shelter is simply unable to prevent the wild boars from causing destruction.
Technological means are ineffective against such a monster, a feeling the boy had for some reason.
"...Damn it!"
Thinking of the girl who had just rushed into the inferno of the ruins and those 'androids', Kusanagi Godou didn't know what he was thinking. After roaring, he followed her.
────────────────────────────────
"Haha...that's really something..."
Erica Blantri, her forehead beaded with cold sweat, watched with a wry smile as the enormous black boar, radiating an aura of rage and destruction, approached her step by step.
Only now has she glimpsed a small part of the iceberg of the power of 'God'.
It should be noted that the being before us is merely a divine beast, and is still quite different from a true god.
Even so, the terrifying pressure was enough to almost make the girl unable to breathe.
How ridiculous! Before coming here, I was so confident that I would directly confront the gods. How utterly foolish!
Even so, the girl still stood resolutely in front of the giant beast.
Foolishness or arrogance, now that she's here, Erica will not break the oath she made before coming here, nor her responsibility as a knight.
Although she didn't think she could withstand this behemoth.
"So, do you have any ideas? Since we're guests, shouldn't we at least offer a small gift?"
Forcing a smile, Erica glanced at the dozen or so androids that had gathered behind her.
In reality, Erica didn't hold out much hope.
The term "android" sounds impressive, but in reality, if a real fight broke out, Erica, who possesses the rank of Grand Knight and whose combat power, excluding gods and god-slayers, is actually among the world's top, is confident that she can defeat all of these dozen or so people after a series of maneuvers.
While individual combat strength isn't the most troublesome aspect of the Android Team, even if this group of Androids had other trump cards, Erica found it hard to imagine that they could defeat the Divine Beast.
At this moment, an android suddenly took down the long, white-cloth-wrapped object that it had been carrying on its back.
After it was removed, the white cloth burst open instantly, revealing a black box with gold patterns, shaped like an exquisite coffin, floating among the androids.
The next moment, four androids suddenly inserted their longswords into the box and then swung them violently in different directions.
boom!
With a muffled thud, the box burst open, accompanied by a powerful pressure.
Erica stared wide-eyed at the contents of the box floating in front of her.
It was a golden spear.
This is definitely not an ordinary object; it has reached the level of a divine artifact!
Erica came to this conclusion almost at first glance.
After taking out their spears, the android band didn't stop. Instead, they all aimed their hands at the wild boars that were still rampaging and seemed to be preparing to charge at them.
"Simulation technique activated."
The android leader's emotionless voice rang out, and the vast magical energy was arranged in an orderly fashion. As if in response, the golden spear also began to tremble slightly.
The next second, the spear flew out.
"Roar──"
Seemingly sensing a threat, the boar finally turned its attention to Erica and the others.
Then its eye was pierced by the spear.
"Roar!!!"
The wild boar's agonizing cries shook the heavens, almost simultaneously punctuated by the unanimous chanting of the androids.
"Broken Phantasm".
The violent explosion tore through the air and swept outwards, engulfing the entire wild boar.
The radius is at least fifty meters.
Erica was stunned by what she saw.
There is a legend in the world that as long as one obtains the treasures hidden deep beneath the Atlas Temple, one can easily kill the gods.
She used to scoff at it, but now it seems... there might actually be some basis to it.
Looking at the flames and smoke that had not yet dissipated in mid-air, Erica's originally confident heart was strongly shaken.

"Roar!!!"
As I pondered, the ferocious beast roared once more.
"what?!"
Erica was horrified.
"Having withstood such an attack, yet still..."
You should know that the spear just now exploded after it pierced the wild boar's eye.
Although Erica felt heartbroken and regretful about detonating that divine artifact, its power was indeed terrifying, not to mention that it erupted from inside a wild boar's eye.
Even after reaching this point, they still can't defeat this divine beast?!
Erica felt a sense of despair rising within her.
"Estimation error."
Even then, the android leader's emotionless voice continued.
"Target level upgraded, divine incarnation, odds of victory... zero."
"An incarnation of a god?!"
Erica was startled and before she could fully react, the black behemoth had already broken through the smoke and dust of the explosion and charged towards the group!
Half of the wild boar's head had disappeared by this time, but this only made the beast's appearance even more terrifying. Even Erica was so frightened by it that she took a few steps back.
"The plan has been chosen: a strategic retreat."
"Ugh?"
Erica looked back and saw that all the androids had jumped off the roof and were running away from the wild boars.
"Wait……"
Erica was utterly dumbfounded.
What happened to fighting together?
No, although it wasn't explicitly stated, isn't this the default arrangement? Isn't this supposed to be the classic storyline?
If she had been all alone from beginning to end, Erica wouldn't have minded fighting to the death, but now that she had teammates who had run away, Erica's mentality was starting to falter...
They left so suddenly and without any hesitation, leaving me wondering whether I should go with them...
