The Infinite World of Weapon Girls

puff--

The already weakened Xia Shi was wounded by a sword once more. Although not fatal, the horrifying blood gushed out again.

The greatsword of halogen steel broke in two and crashed heavily to the ground, the dull thud jolting the girl awake.

At the same moment, she saw the face of the girl lying in her arms. Her eyes closed, and her serene and beautiful smile was like an arrow piercing her heart, almost suffocating her… Her fingers tightened, and she finally hugged Xia Shi even tighter.

Tina suddenly awoke and realized what she had forgotten.

Correct!

The girl's eyes brimmed with a mixture of hatred for the enemy and regret for Xia Shi as she pressed her head against the chest of the girl in her arms.

It seems like nothing was done.

In reality, Tina's supercomputer was operating at overcapacity as if its restrictions had been lifted. Her consciousness was like an all-pervasive, all-encompassing net, spreading across the entire Japanese territory. The so-called cutting-edge firewall of the Defense Agency was, in Tina's mind, the most ridiculous of building block walls.

"Final...bombardment...!"

…………

Humans hate sudden fear because they cannot learn self-redemption.

Yeonju felt lost and desperate after being suddenly harmed, isolated, and abandoned by humans.

Tina ruthlessly used an RPG to send the biker gang to their deaths; the fearful looks in the eyes of the cursed children at that moment are something she can never forget.

But Yeonju was redeemed by Tina, thus rediscovering the meaning of friendship and overcoming her fear.

Where is Tina?

Enju trusted Tina because Tina had redeemed her, and Asako trusted her because her harmonious relationship with the facilitator aligned with her 'beliefs'... Thus, when many of the cursed children could not accept Tina, it was Enju and Asako who helped Tina emerge from the shadows, just as she expressed her gratitude by tightly grasping Asako's hand that day.

What about Xia Shi...?

The only person who could redeem her did not choose to forgive her.

Therefore, Xia Shi used his actions to make Tina understand his feelings for her.

And so, from that moment on, Xia Shi would never be forgotten in someone's life, or even in their soul.

…………

A satellite cannon, smoothly orbiting in space, suddenly had its command forcibly altered by some domineering force, then inexplicably changed direction, fired with extreme precision, and burst forth.

The deafening roar vanished instantly in the ultra-high vacuum of space, leaving only the fiery tail, its rays comparable to the blazing sun, leaving an indelible, scorching mark even in space.

The satellite cannon pierced through the atmosphere, reaching the Earth's surface. Its scorching energy descended upon the land, illuminating the eternal, dark night with a light that seemed to light up the heavens and the earth.

At the same time, the long-dormant celestial ladder—the linear electromagnetic projection device—also erupted with a pure white beam so dazzling it was almost blinding, piercing through the constellation Scorpio.

[With Asako and Natsume remembering them, Mitsuhiro and Shoken could be considered to have died a worthy death.]

[Sorry for writing such a depressing plot again. What follows is all about everyday life! Please support me, thank you~]

[There was an oversight: Asako didn't die. Tina left behind blank rounds. Blank rounds at close range, and not being colored bullets, wouldn't cause much damage to the Cursed Child. This has been corrected in the previous text.]

【Ta73 has woken up! It's awake! It's awake! Everything is alright~】

Four days passed serenely since Scorpio was destroyed.

When Rentaro fought Hiruko Kagetane, his identity as a product of the 'New Human Creation Project' immediately attracted the attention of the Holy Emperor. As the hero who destroyed Scorpio, he became very popular for a time.

Including Kikunojo Tendo's surprise, Takuto Howaki's resentment and jealousy, Kisara Tendo and Enju Aihara's affections, and Nari no Onoko's three gains, I guess they were all thinking... that losing that hand was such a damn good deal!

[Note for those who haven't seen Black Bullet: As mentioned earlier, the Sky Ladder wasn't equipped with armor-piercing rounds, so Rentaro pulled out his own right "Super-Garlic Prosthetic" and used it as a projectile.]

Given the heavy casualties among the other police officers involved in the operation, and to express gratitude for saving Tokyo, the Holy Emperor even personally visited the remaining assistants to bestow special honors upon them.

St. Tokyo Hospital.

Fourth floor.

A robust doctor with short, graying hair, who looked old but still had a lot of energy, was walking briskly, followed by five or six nurses who were walking hurriedly and could not keep up with the script.

The dean brought news that the Holy Emperor would soon be making his personal visit, which made the old doctor in charge of a certain young girl extremely anxious.

His goal this time is a 403-star ward.

At the entrance of ward 403, a man leaned against the wall, smoking silently. He wore bright yellow glasses and a strangely flamboyant black trench coat.

"Damn it, when will these guys ever stop...?"

The man's previously listless and unfocused gaze shifted slightly as he glanced at the attending physician, who had arrived with such a formidable presence, and he immediately became alarmed.

"Ah!!"

The man suddenly turned around and blocked the doorway of the ward, making a highly threatening gesture as the medical team rushed forward, a prelude to a brawl.

"Young man! This is the last time I'm warning you!!"

The doctor stopped abruptly, looking like he was about to explode with anger, pointing his finger angrily.

"Listen up, you old bastard! This is the last time I'm warning you! ... If there's a next time, it won't be you saving others, it'll be others saving you!!" The man was even more aggressive.

"You, you—!!"

The old doctor has practiced medicine for forty years and has personally experienced the Gastrea plague. He's seen all sorts of medical disputes, but this is the first time he's encountered anything like this.

A patient in urgent need of resuscitation was brought in, and then a guy claiming to be a relative jumped out and blocked the door, not leaving its side for a moment.

Since reasoning and persuasion are ineffective

The hospital's response was to first gather all fifty of its security guards to try and get rid of the guy.

As a result, the fifty security guards ended up occupying all the inpatient wards on the third floor.

When one plan failed, another was devised. The hospital called the police, and twenty well-trained officers even threatened them with guns... except that they are still lying on beds on the fifth floor.

The hospital staff, assuming the police were hesitant to actually use firearms on innocent people, hired Tokyo's largest yakuza gang the following day, granting them special permission to use rocket launchers to threaten the victims.

...The situation was exactly the same as the previous two times, perhaps even worse, because that very day, the biggest gang became the third largest, and they even vowed to fight this lousy hospital to the death.

This mysterious man blocked the road for four days. I ask you, which patient in need of emergency care could endure four days?

This isn't kinship; it's murder! They might even frame the hospital later and collect a hefty compensation. I've seen this kind of thing before, but this is the first time I've seen someone so outspoken.

"Then there's no need to discuss it further..."

Thinking of this, the old doctor stretched out his hand and beckoned. From the corner of the corridor behind him, more than a dozen riot police officers rushed out. Dressed in black riot police uniforms and carrying silenced submachine guns, they swarmed towards him.

Click, click, click—they all aimed at the man in front of the ward.

The man in the black trench coat, or more precisely, J, twisted his right wrist with his left hand and sneered, "So your hospital isn't planning to stay open, is it?"

The old doctor had witnessed J's methods firsthand, and couldn't help but feel intimidated despite his outward bravado:

"In a moment, His Majesty the Holy Emperor will personally arrive to inspect the young girl's condition. If she dies due to lack of timely care... we have ample evidence to prove that you were the one who orchestrated it!"

"The Holy Emperor?"

Like the ripples on a lake caused by falling autumn leaves, a pleasant, girlish voice came from behind the crowd.

"Let's all go back."

Wherever the Holy Emperor went, it was as if he was showered with holy light. This pure blue girl was like a fairy in a painting, walking gracefully. Although she was only fifteen or sixteen years old, she possessed both noble dignity and lovely elegance.

Those around were filled with fear and trepidation, and without uttering a word, they all retreated.

"Mr. J, I've heard a little about the situation here. I'm sure there must be some unspeakable difficulties involved, right?"

There was nothing particularly difficult about it. J had just happened to know Tina's basic information in the Closers world. How could an intelligent robot from a high-tech dimension be treated in a regular hospital? Besides, J felt that his recovery drink was more reliable than a hospital.

Tina's prolonged coma was largely due to the lingering effects of overloading the computer.

J estimated that if he told the old doctor that the girl was fine and would be lively again after being locked in the refrigerator for a few days... he would probably call a mental hospital doctor instead of the armed police next time.

Seeing that J remained silent, the Holy Emperor chuckled and said, "May I go in? I'm all alone... I just want to see Tina; I really hope she's alright."

J thought for a moment, then stepped aside and pushed open the door:

"Go in, but whatever you see, don't be surprised."

The private, five-star hospital room features white walls, a long table, and a large, sun-drenched window. Its simple furnishings are pleasing to the eye. Within the spacious forty square meters, there is only a single luxurious bed by the window.

The above is considered normal.

When J opened the door, what appeared before her eyes was an unimaginable mountain of refrigerators.

The 40-square-meter space was crammed with more than 30 refrigerators, all with the word "cold" written in large letters on their doors. The top few looked like they were about to fall over – just like an abandoned classroom with desks and chairs stacked high in an haphazard fashion.

A girl sitting on a small individual refrigerator is carefully taking stock of her inventory: 16 pink and blue units, 14 white units, and only a handful of purple units…

Hearing the creak of the door opening, the girl turned her head to look.

It was the stunned and bewildered Holy Emperor, and J

It seems J didn't expect Tina to wake up at this moment, and that as soon as she did, she would throw all the refrigerator inventory out of the imaginary space and begin taking stock.

...Don't ask why we don't just take inventory in the imaginary space, throw all the refrigerators out, count them one by one, and throw them back. That's the romance of a humanoid weapon!

"Uh... um... we opened the door the wrong way."

Before the Holy Emperor could react, J slammed the door shut, then silently counted to three before carefully and slowly reopening it.

See, that's much more normal now!

When the door was opened again, the Holy Emperor looked straight ahead and saw a girl who had even changed into a white hospital gown, lying quietly and obediently on the white hospital bed.

The contrast is incredible!

"Those refrigerators...what were they...?"

The Holy Emperor suddenly became incoherent. As a well-mannered noblewoman who went to bed at 22 p.m. and woke up at 7 a.m. every day, and who never cultivated immortality, she shouldn't be hallucinating.

“It must be an illusion!” J explained. “...So many refrigerators could disappear in an instant, except for those space magic in fantasy worlds, there’s no way that could do that! Instead of this, didn’t you want to see Tina? Go, go quickly.”
