Japan, above Tengu City.

This city looks like any other city, but to some people, this city is quite different.

"Squeak..."

The heavy mechanical door opened, and then a girl in uniform with red twintails strode in. She had a lollipop in her mouth, and her eyes were sharp and serious.

"What's wrong? Lingyin? What's the matter?"

This girl, who looks to be only a junior high school student, is named Kotori Itsuka. She is the commander of the battleship "Flaxives". This battleship belongs to an organization called "Ratatosk", which is the same as

, was established to deal with those elves. However, compared to the former who tried to eliminate the elves through force, Ratatosk's purpose was more moderate. They did not advocate being hostile to the elves. On the contrary, Ratatosk

Sk takes the principle of communicating with elves and coexisting peacefully.

Although some people may think that it is too childish for a teenage girl to be the commander of a battleship, the Itsuka Kotori in front of him showed an unexpectedly serious aura.

"Ah, it's Qin Li, I'm sorry to ask you to make a trip despite your busy schedule."

Hearing Wuhe Kotori's words, a woman turned her head from her seat. She was a woman with a beautiful face, but the dark circles under her eyes made it seem like this woman had not slept for a long, long time. Of course,

Itsuka Kotori was obviously used to this, so he didn't pay special attention to it, but nodded to the woman named Reine in front of him.

"I rushed here as soon as I received your report. What's going on? Is there anything new?"

"Ah, that's it..."

As he spoke, Lingyin stretched out his hand to type on the keyboard. Soon, lines of information began to appear on the battleship's large screen.

"Not long ago, the British dem agency updated information about elves. I thought you might want to take a look at this."

"Elf information?"

Hearing this, Itsuka Kotori frowned.

"show me."

"OK."

Lingyin nodded, and then opened the information in front of him again. Soon, the picture appeared on the big screen.

"This is………"

"This is the record recorded when Hermit appeared in the UK a few days ago."

"Hermit... isn't that a very docile and timid elf?"

Looking at the magicians on the screen who were approaching the target location, Itsuka Kotori frowned and hummed softly.

"What's wrong? Could it be that these idiots from the dem club finally pissed off the most docile princess?"

"In fact, it would be nice if it were just that simple."

As he spoke, Lingyin sighed. Sensing Lingyin's abnormality, Itsuka Kotori glanced at her curiously, but before Itsuka Kotori could say anything else, the dem in charge of recording came on the screen.

The voice of the magician.

"Find the target and prepare to attack...wait, what's going on?!"

Along with the dem magician's surprised voice, the scene in front of him quickly zoomed in to the location where the space shock broke out, and the next moment, when he saw the scene on the screen, Itsuka Kotori's eyes widened in surprise.

In the center of the space earthquake, a petite elf codenamed "Hermit" was standing with a knight in silver armor. The two seemed to be talking. And then, Wuhe Kotori saw the knight turning his head and looking at

The magicians saw the knight raising his hands as if he was planning to do something, but the next moment, the magicians on the screen launched an attack on the two enemies.

Soon, with the sound of gunfire, the figures of the knight and the hermit were shrouded in smoke and dust. Seeing this scene, Wuhe Kotori couldn't help but hum.

"The dem people are still so messy...Really, it's because of this that there is no progress on our side..."

However, before Wuhe Qinli's words could finish, suddenly, a surprising scene happened.

At the next moment, the magicians who were attacking the elves on the screen suddenly trembled, and then they lost control and fell directly to the ground. And the magician responsible for recording did not

Exception, very soon, the camera on the screen in front of me faced the ground, and then quickly fell down.

"boom!"

"Wow..."

Hearing the sound of falling coming from the screen, Wuhe Kotori couldn't help but scream.

"This is really tragic...are they okay?"

"No."

Faced with Wuhe Kotori's inquiry, Lingyin shook her head, and then called up another piece of information.

"The attacking magicians were tested after recovery. Because they were protected by random fields, their bodies did not suffer much damage."

"That's good."

Looking at the information in front of him, Itsuka Kotori also breathed a sigh of relief. Although he said he didn't like the fighting style of the dem club, Kotori Itsuka hadn't gone to the point of cursing the other party to death. But...

"What's going on? Who is that knight? Is it the one who attacked the magicians?"

"According to our judgment, the other party is probably another elf."

"Two elves appear at the same time?"

Hearing this, Itsuka Kotori was finally shocked.

"This is something that has never happened before! Has any fluctuation in this elf's spiritual power been recorded?"

"No."

Lingyin shook his head, and then opened another file again. Soon, chaotic spiritual power fluctuation signals appeared in front of Wuhe Qinli.

"According to the records of dem club, after this elf appeared, all the spiritual power fluctuation observation devices were interfered with. Because of this, they were not able to track the whereabouts of these two elves. Until the interference of the spiritual power observation device

After disappearing, I judged that the two elves should have returned to the neighborhood."

"There are actually such elves..."

Hearing this, Itsuka Kotori also looked solemn. As a commander, she certainly knew the characteristics of elves. But this was the first time she had seen such a strange and powerful elf, let alone two elves appearing in the world at the same time.

Disappearance... This thing is really strange. But then again...

"Do you know how the other side defeated those magicians?"

Itsuka Kotori is not surprised that the elves have enough means to defeat the magicians. After all, even if the magicians have power beyond ordinary people and the army, the power of the elves is far superior to them. But the problem is that in the picture just now,

Itsuka Kotori did not see any signs of attack. The magicians fainted as if they had a sudden illness, and there was no sign of external interference at all.

Of course, Itsuka Kotori has already ruled out that this is the work of the hermit, because according to the previous intelligence, the power controlled by the hermit should be ice, and it is unlikely to cause such an effect anyway.

"The current situation is unknown. According to dem's examination results, none of these magicians suffered any physical injuries, but they seemed to have been greatly stimulated and frightened mentally."

"Fear...? You can't tell me that those magicians were frightened and fainted, right?"

"…………"

Faced with Wuhe Kotori's unbelievable rhetorical question, Lingyin nodded silently.

"...What is going on? Could it be that that elf can invade other people's minds? If that's the case, then it would be troublesome... But having said that, what's the level and code name of that elf?"

"The code name is knight, and the comprehensive danger level is A."

"Knight...well, he is indeed a knight who fits this title very well."

Recalling the gesture of the knight protecting the hermit on the screen, Itsuka Kotori nodded. Reiin sighed.

"...Haven't you found it yet? Kotori?"

"………What?"

"here."

As he spoke, Lingyin flipped the screen back to when the two elves appeared, and then enlarged the screen.

"Didn't you notice? This elf... Judging from the size, he should be a male."

"……………Why?"
