-1445- We will achieve victory

"I am Rorelai Arneet of the S128 Special Task Force. Can everyone hear my voice?"

As this voice resonated in the ears of all the Sky Wizards in the airspace, everyone paused momentarily and widened their eyes.

"Rozen?"

Kanata Age was both surprised and delighted.

"Oh my..."

Chloe Sevegny was initially stunned, but soon, as if she had guessed something, a smile appeared on her face.

"Se... Senpai...!?"

Yuri Flostre was utterly shocked.

"Is this Rozen-senpai's voice?"

"It's him, right?"

"It's Rozen-sama...!"

The Sky Wizards, who had been forming the defensive line, exchanged glances and then displayed expressions of uncertainty and disbelief.

In this situation, Rozen's voice continued to transmit through the communication crystals in each wizard's ears.

"I know you all have many questions, but the situation is urgent, so I won't explain further. All you need to remember is one thing."

Rozen's voice rang out clearly.

"From now on, I will be commanding your battle."

Indeed.

From this point forward, Rozen would be commanding everyone in battle.

"Do as I say."

Rozen spoke concisely.

"In that way, we will achieve victory."

There were no excessive words.

There was no unnecessary explanation.

Rozen simply conveyed his intent to everyone.

That was, we can achieve victory.

And so...

"Oooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh——!"

In the sky filled with Armored Beetles, the Sky Wizards, who had been desperately resisting and preparing to give it their all, all cheered loudly.

Their voices surged to the heavens and echoed across the sky.

In that instant, everyone present became incredibly excited, with their eyes burning with intense determination.

The Sky Wizards, who had been at a disadvantage, suddenly saw their morale rise to unprecedented heights in just a moment.

"This guy, he finally decided not to just sit back and watch."

Kanata smirked, with battle intent burning in his eyes, unlike ever before.

"Indeed."

Chloe was still smiling, but the magic energy around her began to shift.

"Senpai... is going to command...?"

Yuri hadn't fully processed the sudden situation, or perhaps she understood but was simply astonished and couldn't believe Rozen was going to take command.

However, one thing was undeniable: Rozen's voice stirred an incredible surge of energy in everyone's hearts.

"Oooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh——!"

The shouts of the wizards continued to reverberate, as their rising morale soared endlessly.

...

"What... what's going on!?"

"Such... such overwhelming morale...!"

"What is this...?"

Watching the scene of the exhilarated wizards displayed on the projection screen, Misora Whitale, Lecty Eisenach, and Rico Flamel were all dumbfounded.

Rozen, as if bathing in the waves of cheers, had a sparkle in his eyes, and a smirk curled on his lips.

Inside the command center, the staff members also seemed to ignite with energy, becoming full of motivation.

These scenes nearly left Misora, Lecty, and Rico speechless.

But...

"Don't be surprised; this is the renown of the Hero of Humanity."

Freon Flamel gazed at Rozen's back as if looking at an unreachable being, speaking as she did.

"As second-year pre-cadets who only entered last year, you may not have witnessed it, but those who are more senior than you have all seen the miracles this man has created."

This was indisputable, something even Freon could not argue against.

"He was once invincible in the ranking battles, leading his squad to one spectacular aerial battle after another. In just one year, he created countless brilliant moments that are deeply engraved in the hearts of everyone in Mistgun."

"He once dominated the frontlines, undefeated, even when he was still a pre-cadet. He managed to overpower the strongest from floating cities worldwide, secured the highest leadership in the frontline fortress floating city, and led everyone to annihilate the Armored Beetles' army that nearly brought the frontlines to collapse, without causing any casualties."

"We at Mistgun regard him as a hero."

"Even the council members of Vibel view him with respect."

"Though he retired from the frontlines a year ago to join the Alchemist Division, bringing significant technological advancements to humanity and earning the title Mage King, perhaps you haven't seen how his figure in the sky was the spiritual pillar for the Sky Wizards fighting alongside him."

"Countless people admire him."

"Countless people worship him."

"Frankly speaking, nearly everyone here has entered the battlefield following his lead. His figure in the sky is the ultimate goal and aspiration of all."

"So, when he announced his withdrawal from the frontlines to join the Alchemist Division, not only did Mistgun experience several large-scale demonstrations, but even the council members of Vibel were alarmed and traveled far to persuade him to stay."

"Now, he has once again appeared on the battlefield. Even just letting people hear his voice is enough to raise the morale of those who admire him to the peak."

"You've never seen this side of him, have you?"

Freon turned to look at Misora, Lecty, and Rico.

"If that's the case, then open your eyes and see."

"Watch the greatest hero of humanity, the one called the last hope, as he commands on the battlefield."

"And then, carve this moment into your hearts and witness it thoroughly."

Freon's words led Misora, Lecty, and Rico to look at Rozen.

As they watched Rozen bathed in the cheers, their gazes began to change.

Thus, Rozen began to issue commands.

...

What followed was a breathtaking reversal.

The command that officially initiated this aerial battle was a simple one.

"Dismantle the defensive line! Everyone, scatter!"

When Rozen gave this command, the wizards forming the frontmost defensive line scattered without hesitation.

Even though this defensive line was the only one leading to Mistgun, and once gone, the Armored Beetles' army would be able to reach Mistgun without hindrance, and the wizards should have fought to the death to prevent the collapse of this line, yet now, under Rozen's single command, all the wizards scattered without hesitation.

"Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz——!"

Without the barrier holding them back, the Armored Beetles' army swiftly passed through the dispersed defensive line, surging like a black tide towards Mistgun's location.

Watching as humanity's enemies advanced toward Mistgun, none of the wizards wavered.

Simply because Rozen's voice continued to resonate.

"D473 team! Proceed to coordinates 55.43.79!"

"C383 team! Proceed to coordinates 72.12.17!"

"B250 team! Proceed to coordinates 26.24.77!"

"A197 team! Proceed to coordinates 84.03.46!"

Under Rozen's orderly commands, all teams arrived at their respective coordinates, scattering around.

Soon, all the wizards formed a strange formation.
