The ancient dragons' breath and beam attacks from the defense satellites were fired into the dimensional rift. The ancient dragons' breath served to crush the monsters that emerged. And the beams from the defense satellites were used to attack the other side of the rift. The ancient dragons probably weren't aware of it, but the roles were being divided up well and the pace at which the monsters were spawning had slowed down.
"Have they reached the end of the monsters, or have they only been temporarily cut off by the beam attack...? Either way, if this situation continues..." (Mile)
However, before Mile had finished speaking, one of the three beams suddenly disappeared.
"Eh……"
[One of the three attacking satellites exploded. It must have been too old. And it seems that they prioritized joining the attack over having a sufficient safety margin...] (Nano)
"...They were on board, weren't they?" (Mile)
[Yes?] (Nano)
"My subordinates were on board, weren't they? For this day. The Scavengers have spent countless eternities protecting the human race and this world..." (Mile)
[Yes……] (Nano)
And then the other beam suddenly disappeared again.
"Ah……"
[The beam weapon appears to have been damaged. The satellite itself appears to be safe, it seems.] (Nano)
"That's good... But, it seems only one unit is operational. That means... eh?" (Mile)
A point of light pierces the thick clouds and headed towards the earth—And then it plunged into the dimensional rift and exploded.
[This is the satellite whose beam weapon was damaged earlier. Having lost its weapon and become useless, it seems that it has lost its reason for existence, and so it has used the last of its weapons.
His final weapon, a loyalty to the Creator and the Administrator...] (Nano)
"Eh……. Eh..." (Mile)
She didn't understand what the Nanomachines was saying...
Then, points of light sliced through the clouds and rained down from the sky one after another.
[These are the satellites that arrived in the sky above us and were working to repair their weapons. They are all fine creatures, deeply loyal to the Creator and the Administrator...] (Nano)
The Nanomachiness seemed a little sad. One after another, the satellites entered the cracks. Followed by the sound of an explosion—However, the dimensional rift showed no signs of disappearing.
"...Let's do that..." (Mile)
[Yes?] (Nano)
"I won't let the deaths of the Scavengers go to waste..." (Mile)
Mile gritted her teeth.
"I was stupid... Indeed, the sunlight that passes through thick clouds does not have enough energy. In that case, all I had to do was focus the light before it penetrated the clouds... ...Nanomachiness! I command you... Nanomachiness in this battlefield can immediately respond to the use of magic by friendly forces! Any Nanomachiness outside the battlefield, rise with full power! ...As many as you can, as high as you can!!" (Mile)
The Nanomachiness in this area were necessary for fighting monsters. Therefore, using his level 7 authority, Mile ordered the Nanomachiness, who were not directly involved in the battle here, to rise up.
Up, up, up...
The efficiency of magic usage outside of the battlefield would likely drop significantly temporarily, but that's not important. Now they just put everything into this battle!
"Nanomachiness, split into five groups, and the first three groups went through the clouds into outer space! The fourth and fifth move under the clouds! Then, the first group, form a giant reflector (solar system) and reflect the light towards the lens formed by the second group! The second group, form a lens to concentrate the sunlight! The third group, at the focus of the light focused by the second group, refract the light beam so that it travels in a straight line without diverging again! The fourth group, receive the beam of light that had penetrated the clouds and disperse it, sweeping through the swarm of monsters. The fifth group, reflect some of the beams that the fourth group spread out, and target high-ranking monsters where allies are in danger!" (Mile)
Yes, it was the ultimate magic that combined all the knowledge Misato Kurihara had gained in her previous life—the solar system, focused magic, homing lasers, sprayer rays, and reflective satellite cannons.
"If the sunlight is blocked by clouds, then we can focus it above the clouds. This will allow a powerful beam to reach the ground without being significantly attenuated by clouds. Why didn't I notice something so simple...?" (Mile)
[Mile-sama, preparations for launch are complete!] (Nano)
"All right! Sunshine Destroyer, Fire!!" (Mile)
A huge reflective field formed in outer space, far above the battlefield. The sunlight was then reflected and focused onto a giant lens, also in space, formed by a force field. At the focus of the concentrated light, the beam was parallelized so as not to spread, easily penetrating the thick clouds, and below the clouds, it was diffused by the optical prism field formed by the fourth group of Nanomachiness, and dozens of beams of light swept across the ground. The fifth group received some of those beams and reflected them, sniping at larger targets and monsters caught in the middle of a melee.
"Right, not only have we cut off the rear guard, but we've almost completely annihilated all the monsters above B-rank. We now have the upper hand. Now all that's left is to destroy the dimensional rift! ...But the diffusion ray cannon (spray gun) to wipe out monsters over a wide area, won't have any effect on what's on the other side of the dimensional tunnel... Diffusion magic cannon... No, a diffusion ray cannon (spray gun) may defeat the monster, but it won't destroy the dimensional rift! We need to focus all the beams here and aim for the central core of the rift! Nanomachiness, the diffusion ray cannon (spray gun) team joins up with the satellite reflection cannon (sniper) team, and reflect the focused beam from the second stage lens without diffusing it, slam it into the dimensional rift, and fire at full force! Cut the other world to shreds and destroy the system that's creating the dimensional rift!" (Mile)
Mile shouted instructions to the Nanomachiness verbally, not in her head. This was not the time to worry about such things. Mile squeezed all of her knowledge into this one attack.
"Destroy the dimensional rift! This name is fitting for a vicious weapon that does not simply destroy matter, but tears apart and destroys dimensional space itself, the space-time continuum—Death Raptor, prepare to fire!" (Mile)
Of course, since Mile loved old space operas, she knew that the original story was "Disrupter."
"Shoot!" (Mile)
All the energy sent from the sky was dumped into the dimensional rift (tunnel).
"Spin it around, spin it around!!" (Mile)
And then the Nanomachiness waved the beams. It was unclear what structure the tunnel that formed the dimensional rift had, but the beam was reflected when it hit the tunnel wall, and continued on to the other side, hitting the walls of the tunnel multiple times. Presumably, space-time discontinuities were impermeable to electromagnetic waves—If this were to happen, the beam would fly wildly in all directions after passing through the tunnel. While slicing through and destroying everything around it...
"Let's gooooooo!!" (Mile)
The Sunshine Destroyer—the new name was the Death Raptor—was merely a verbal command given to the Nanomachiness by Mile, and there was absolutely no burden on Mile herself. And the Nanomachiness wasn't going to break down easily, and even if they did, there were plenty to replace them. So this attack could continue indefinitely, until the star in this system burned out...
With no followers, the monsters' numbers rapidly decreased and they no longer posed a major threat, and it looked like the remaining enemies were being wiped out. And then…….
Bang!
The dimensional rift—closed.
"...Did we do it...?"
Even though there were still monsters remaining, several Hunters and soldiers stopped moving and muttered in shock.
"You idiot, don't let your guard down! If you come all the way here and die, you'll be laughed at!"
And there were veterans who pointed this out and followed up.
However, even though they continued fighting, everyone shared the same thoughts.
(...it's over. ...We won...) (Everyone)
However, they didn't really feel like they had won. Although they were being optimistic, they never really thought they would make it out alive. Perhaps that was the kind of people they were.
"One more push, without dying or getting hurt, let's proceed carefully and safely!"
"Oooooohhhh!!" (Everyone)
