Capture completepositive
The Springloaded helicopter’s landing skids grew outwards like living things They struck the transport plane like a scorpion capturing its prey and supplied the lift needed to avoid a crash
At the same time the revolver railgun finished firing all 6 of its bullets Machina stopped firing and
I will repeat my warning Disarm yourself and surrender
Her tone remained plain
Ange and Lucia were already regaining their strength and the plane’s engine had stopped It was impossible to fight or flee However
Enju was unharmed Or rather her hole-filled body and mummified right arm had easily regenerated And she cutely stuck out her tongue
Ange could not believe her own face could look so hateful
Then she heard a sound like chains being pulled out
Machina had opened a hole in the cockpit and pulled out the entire Gatling gun attached directly below The magazine rattled from the several hundred shots still remaining
At the same time she reached a hand behind her
I will shoot you down again
Golden threads wrapped around and pulled off the helicopter’s rotor
It abandoned its job of providing propulsion and become the simple and deadly weapon that was four rapidly-rotating metal panels measuring more than 7 meters long
As the two connected aircraft slowly descended Machina jumped into the cargo bay with the Gatling gun in one hand and the rotor in the other
Waahh
She sent the rotor toward Enju’s face
She switched from the scientific railgun revolver to a much more primitive weapon that tore apart the narrow transport plane’s entrance and was swung toward Enju
But that was not going to break the golden thread shield that had withstood the sublight bullets She could still protect herself However
The repeated blows from the heavy metal panels kept her from moving so she could not prevent Machina from aiming the Gatling gun at her
Machina did not hesitate to pull the trigger
That machinegun was meant for use against an army or a tank but it fired on a girl who stood less than 140cm tall And at close enough range that even the flames bursting from the muzzle reached her Gwah ow oww wait I said wait
Of course she was not just a girl
Enju’s body was filled with holes and transformed into shreds of flesh but only an angel’s flames could kill a demon The holes would instantly regenerate and the process would repeat
Ibekusa give us a turn
Ange and Lucia had hopped into the cargo bay too
An angel and a demon could do a lot more against a demon than a human from FeTUS They would be more suitable opponents for the demon girl but
Negative FeTUS will capture this unit
Machina held out a hand to stop them
And it was true she had saved the other two so they did not interfere
Ah ha ha Capture me I don’t think it’ll be that easy
Enju cackled and Machina clearly frowned for once
The demon girl knew FeTUS techniques and had all the traits of a demon so it was true FeTUS had the greatest disadvantage against her Enough so that everything Machina could use against her would be burned away in a ball of fire At the very least capturing her for research would not be possible with her current techniques
I will capture you I will use you for that experiment
Machina abandoned the Gatling gun and returned the rotor to the helicopter
Enju regenerated while forcing out all the bullets fired into her But before she could stand up a golden magic circle spread out at her feet
Analyzing molecular sinusoid within target space Confirming presence of particle fluctuationpositive
Machina held her hand out toward the opened circle with the coldness of someone dissecting a frog in an experiment
The reaction has begunJiyuuni
Thank you for your cooperation
The circle containing the target emitted a pale and still light
But that was all The cold light of activation was a standard effect but there was no other visible change
There was no sound smell wind or anything else
Anti-Metatron Tool Dimensional Transferactivate
Not that anyone could detect anyway
If you divided all elements down into their smallest units like molecules atoms and leptons it was said you would end up returning to unobservable quantum fluctuation in the same dimensional space The movement of all matter came from that fluctuation So if you could interfere with that unobservable realm you could essentially influence another dimension
In this case it was unclear if that other dimension was higher or lower than the third but
At the very least it became possible to control the molecular movements in the specified space
Not even FeTUS had proven this and it was still a theory in the experimental phase
This was a method obtained during Machina’s training with Ange
By analyzing the phase difference between the unobservable angel flames and Metatron’s standard flames she could predict the sine wave of the unobservable fluctuation
By applying that she could then control any molecular movement Theoretically she could apply a phase transition to a vacuum and create a new three-dimensional universe
Of course the equations for that were still unknown and there was no need to work them out later
She was doing the same thing Ange had She was applying the formula for the non-fluctuating elements within the angel wings that could not be physically interfered with
Enju realized there was something wrong with the space around her so she turned her body around
But no matter how much she tried to flee her body would not move In fact
I’m frozen Wah wahh
Her body had filled in the holes but it was too numb to even stand up Her body felt terribly cold and frostbite visibly spread across the newly-healed skin
The osmotic pressure of her cells must have changed because the liquid burst from them while half of it froze and half of it vaporized The vaporized portion froze in midair and sparkled there
What is this Ah it’s so cold
Ange and Lucia noticed the change as they watched The temperature in the cargo bay was dropping and fog was forming
Even though the engine was still spewing flames from its newly-created holes
I see Even an immortal demon requires water and osmotic pressure to maintain the fluidity of their flesh so extremely low temperatures will cause the cells to necrotize She can’t create the cells needed to heal her wounds Wh-what does that mean
As a demon Lucia seemed to understand the principle behind it And
Capture complete
Machina calmly summed it up
What would happen if that space underwent a phase transition that eliminated the elemental fluctuation The effect was not as great as the complexity of the formulas would suggest but one result was the elimination of molecular friction The concept of heat would infinitely vanish from that space
Ghgwaahh
Enju screamed as she realized she had been closed in a room at absolute zero She clawed at her chest because the moisture of the oxygen in her lungs had frozen
No matter how much they hurt her Machina lacked the power to kill this lifeform
But she could leave her with an eternally unmoving body
At some point humans had reached the point that they could threaten demons so Lucia gulped
You’re taking Metatron too lightly
Even Ange felt a cold sweat
Machina had called this an anti-Metatron tool so it was meant to resist angels not demons
She could predict what its effect would be A temperature of less than -300 degrees could easily be negated with their flames but the problem was the creation of a space without any heat whatsoever That would block all heat energy physical or otherwise That would likely negate Metatron or even a flame that contained all the energy of the sun
At the moment I have no intention of using this against you
Machina maintained a passive hostility
More importantlyshe looked to Enju That immortal lifeform could regenerate but she could not recover
She should be useful in revealing Kurosaki Do you mind if FeTUS holds onto her
