Colonia Storm Tour

Alice blinked her deep purple eyes at her.

“Elf, that’s why we gave Ratatoskr a chance to reconsider his position back then.”

Lin Haiyuan provided the fundamental reason why they didn't simply crush Ratatosk.

"An elf...yes."

Alice recalled the trouble those humanoid MADMANs could cause, which indeed forced Foehn to give Ratatosk a chance to reconsider his position instead of smashing him into mincemeat.

"That's it. We've covered the important things. What's next? Reminiscing about the past?"

Lin Haiyuan removed his hand from her forehead.

"No, from the moment I came into this world and decided to use the name Alice, it meant that I wanted to abandon the past and start a new journey in life!"

Alice no longer wanted to recall the past, because apart from serving as a source of knowledge, there was nothing left to remember.

"That settles it then. But there's no MO for us to play in this world, though we can play a real-life version of MO. Oh, and there's Date A Live too. Want me to tell you about magicians to pass the time?"

Lin Haiyuan felt that there was nothing to talk about if they didn't reminisce about the past, so the only interesting thing to talk about was magicians.

Alice shook her head and said, "I don't want to hear those right now. I want to whine to you, Lin the Madman."

"Are you trying to be cute with me?"

Lin Haiyuan laughed after hearing this. "Hahaha, you've come to the wrong person if you're trying to act cute with me. Do you think I won't laugh at you?"

"It doesn't matter if you laugh at me, because it's really lonely at the top."

Alice rested her head on her collarbone.

"Is it lonely at the top? What are you trying to express with all those poetic words? Just be straightforward."

Lin Haiyuan asked curiously.

"Doesn't Lin, the madman, feel lonely, having no one to open up to and chat with in his high position?"

Alice's question is a classic one, a problem that every person in a high position will face.

"No, because I think it's normal not to have someone you can open up and chat with. It's best to have someone, but it's not a big deal if you don't. Besides, once you're in that position, it's something you and I have to face. So what we need to do is to be able to live up to the price of loneliness in this career."

As Lin Haiyuan finished speaking, he gently placed his hand on her back and stroked it. His experience with Artemisia reminded him that Alice needed comfort right now.

"I once thought that after I transmigrated and became the protagonist of a novel, I would definitely rule the world and slaughter everyone like you. But now that it's just begun, I already feel lonely sitting in a high position. I guess I'm not cut out to be this kind of commander-type transmigrator."

Alice said self-deprecatingly.

"Everyone needs time to grow. You need more time to grow now. You are essentially a normal person who loves to fantasize, unlike me who is called a madman."

Lin Haiyuan was acutely aware of the difference between himself and normal people.

"Ugh! But I don't want to grow into that kind of lonely, commanding figure. I'd rather live a carefree and lively life, like those traveling magicians in Western fantasy with reliable companions."

Alice rolled her face directly onto her chest.

"You'll get used to it once you've done it long enough, and why would you necessarily feel lonely? You're not the only transmigrator in the entire Fenfeng region, there's me too. I'll gladly listen to anything you want to confide in, so don't worry about anything anymore. Tomorrow, go back to Antarctica and do your job as the supreme commander of the last fortress. With Odin helping you, what are you afraid of?"

Lin Haiyuan pressed down on her head to stop her from rolling around.

"...Can you sleep with me tonight?"

Alice hugged Lin Haiyuan with both arms and legs.

"Do you look like you're willing to let me go? You've practically strapped yourself to me."

Lin Haiyuan glanced at Alice.

"So, do you agree?"

Alice looked up at her with a smile, but the smile gradually turned wicked.

"Don't move around. I'm used to sleeping alone. If you move around, I'll have insomnia."

Lin Hai gave a warning, then kicked off his slippers, hugged Alice, lay down on the bed, and pulled the blanket up.

Yes~~

Alice responded in a sweet voice.

"Holy crap, don't answer with such a sweet voice, okay? I'm getting goosebumps from that 'yes, yes'!"

Lin Haiyuan's lips twitched.

"Ah, I forgot that you, Lin Dafengzi, don't like women's flattering and sweet voices. What a blunder. I should have just answered with a normal 'I know'."

Alice patted her head.

"Come on, be quiet and don't make any noise. I'm definitely going to fight tomorrow, and lack of sleep and energy will be fatal in battle."

After Lin Haiyuan finished speaking, he turned to face Alice and closed his eyes.

"Good night."

After whispering something, Alice shamelessly buried her head in her chest, which was covered by her pajamas.

Lin Haiyuan frowned and then relaxed. He vowed in his heart that he would definitely find a way to refuse to sleep with Alice in the future... No, he should hurry up and return to his original body!

Second update complete. Emmmmm, I was overthinking things, which caused the late release.

Oh, I almost forgot to add the chapter title translation.

Chapter 9 Stormbringer (RYUSA MIX) - 1

Chapter 9: Stormringer (RYUSA MIX) - 1

When the next morning arrived, the sonic ranging radar monitoring Ellington Piridis Island across the sea quickly detected the Magician and Bondsky swarms of DEM over the island.

Then the piercing air raid siren began to sound, and the Ratatosk Magician and the Foehn Magician, who were already prepared, were already in their gear and ready for battle.

"DEM's actions are faster than we expected. Judging from their willingness to launch a large-scale attack, any carrier battle group should already be in position."

Alice's voice came through the built-in communicator.

"The conservative estimate of only one day of peace was indeed correct. Chief Alice, have you returned to the Antarctic underground base?"

Lin Haiyuan has already entered the role of Artemisia.

"I have returned to the Antarctic underground base and am currently in the command center at the Antarctic base. Don't worry about my safety; I am not on the island."

Alice said.

"But this time, Bondskies were everywhere, like locusts devouring rice."

Gardenia frowned as she looked at Bondisky, who was staring at her triangular-headed, worm-like figure.

"Our anti-aircraft fire will take care of those Bondskis. We can focus on dealing with the Magicians. They're coming. Strike!"

Lin Haiyuan spotted from afar that the vanguard consisted of William Hansen G. Emilton and Cormier El Nisha W. Ornovsky White, who had come that night to conduct reconnaissance.

"Okay, Charlotte, come with me and Artemisia! The other DEM magicians can be left to the other team members!"

A gardenia was calling out on the communication channel.

"I see!"

Charlotte followed Youhua Zhizi, carrying a large double-edged sword. Charlotte's task was to team up with Youhua Zhizi to deal with William Hansen or Cormier. Youhua Zhizi might not be able to defeat William Hansen or Cormier by herself, but with Charlotte helping to restrain the enemy, things would be different.

The three of them used the random field to accelerate and sprint into the sky, while William Hansen and Cormier on the other side also rushed into the sky. At that time, the middle and low altitudes would be a battlefield of drones, missiles and other magicians. Elite magicians like them would not easily put the battle environment into chaos.

Ultimately, the two elite magicians stood at the same level, staring at each other, neither launching an immediate attack.

"Why didn't you go?"

Lin Haiyuan turned his sky-blue eyes to look at William Hansen and Cormier, who were reflected in his eyes.

"Tch, who wouldn't want to start a fight the moment they meet? But William is really interested in you; he's been looking for a chance to have a one-on-one match with you."

Komir slung the sickle over his shoulder and said.

"Just as Cormier said, you, who used to use Lancelot, have always been my nemesis, Gawain."

William Hansen smiled and pounded his right hand on his chest armor.

“I’m not using Lancelot now, so I can’t really be considered your nemesis anymore.”

As Lin Haiyuan spoke, he raised the Heroic Spirit War Maiden's spear, and the spear blade quickly formed under the infusion of magic.

“No, Miss Artemisia, you will always be Lancelot to me, even if you are not using Lancelot. You will always be a nemesis that I am willing to defeat.”

William Hansen said, raising the Sword of Victory in his hand in front of him.

"An incomprehensible obsession, but it's all good."

Lin Haiyuan used his Free Domain to gain maximum acceleration and charged forward. It was much better to have Hua Zhizi and Charlotte deal with Cormier than to deal with William Hansen together.

“This is exactly what I’ve been asking for.”

William Hansen smiled slightly, gripped the Sword of Victory, and charged forward.

As Cormier watched William Hansen and Artemisia fight, a dangerous smile crept across his lips as he took the scythe off his shoulder.

"This inexplicable obsession, hey, aren't you guys going to do it?"

As he spoke, Cormier made a provocative gesture toward Gardenia and Charlotte.

"Why do we have to go first?"

"And he even made that provocative gesture."

In response to that provocative gesture, Gardenia and Charlotte laughed and gave Cormier the middle finger.

"Tsk, these two disobedient little girls, just wait and see how I deal with you, I'm coming right now!"

Komir grabbed his sickle and swiftly swung it.

“Watch out, Charlotte, a second blade can extend from the end of her scythe at any time.”

The smile on Hua Zhizi's face vanished instantly.

"I see."

Charlotte looked at Gardenia's serious face and answered, then they all split up and attacked Cormier from the side.

Meanwhile, the battle in the sky below quickly intensified, with the Ratatosk magicians and the Fury Wind magicians clashing with the DEM magicians. Those Bondskis who did not target the magicians also began to maneuver towards the side of the island.

The Shrike Air Defense Nest, placed on the island, launches Shrike air defense drones almost simultaneously from the nest's passageway vertically into the sky, and then, under Odin's control, assigns them to their respective targets.
