Chapter 4 - Beat you to the PUNCH!!

I know I said I was going to go punch her on the face but actually I lied, I'm very sorry, I don't want to go outside after all.

Still, I plan to help but just from the comfort of my home. Why go outside when you can stay home? The people who choose to go outside are the weird ones from my perspective

Watching the Kaijuu angel descending, I activate a [Though acceleration] equivalent skill so I now have enough leeway to come up with a plan.

Reviewing what I know about the so called Endbringers, both what I've seen online and what I've personally gathered, I know that destroying the core might be a bad idea due to the spatial attributes tied around it, to destroy the core, I would need to teleport it to an alternate world or another planet entirely due to the potential destruction it could cause.

Even destroying them might be a bad idea because it might tip off the final boss who I've not made enough preparations to go after yet. And who knows if they don't have more of them lying around? I mean, I myself have a lot of Queen Taratect class spiders lying around you know.

And then they have layers and layers of skin— Does that even classify as skin?— that gets tougher the further you go but for a spatial expert like myself, that is not a problem at all, which is why killing them might be easy but the consequences might make it a Pyrrhic victory and the only pyrrhic I like is pie… a wind blows through my room as if trying to comfort me for my bad pun. Stop it D! I don't want your pity…

Anyway, considering everything, I think the win condition here is the traditional method the capes of this world use. And that is…

'Hit it hard enough so that it goes back whence it came'

But I wouldn't be waiting for the Kaijuu angel to land like the capes do.

'Let he who is without sin cast the first stone'

And since I happen to be the lesser sinner here which is close enough, I'll be casting the first stone, itadakimasu~

I immediately teleport in more of my spider clones on the path of the Kaijuu angel which is before she gets to the earth's stratosphere. I'm not using a lot since I'm not trying to kill her but damage her just enough, so I send in a few hundreds.

These spider clones are different from the usual ones since these guys can use [Spatial Separation] and [Inert Evil Eye] on their threads, it's basically immovable object and unstoppable force added together, sure it cost a lot of energy, but the alternate world project is already yielding good results, so it's okay to splurge a little bit if only for a sure win condition.

Wearing stylized white military get-up, with purplish-pink accents, a captain's hat and white gloves… eh what's that? I'm having too much fun with this? That's not true at all, this is me giving my 100% don't worry about the small stuff baby and besides this was a good chance to make use of this outfit I made years ago for no reason.

 I stand before a bigger sized monitor floating in the air. Everything is in place.

In 30 seconds, the Kaijuu angel will enter my assault zone and the battle will begin in earnest, my spiders are prepared and lurking between cracks in space that are hardly visible to the naked eyes.

I watch as E.T.A approaches.

I exaggeratedly swipe my right index finger forward

'All units! Engage! For the Spiderland!'

Immediately 3 of the Kaijuu angel wings are cut off with no resistance and she immediately comes to a halt, puzzlement is visible on her expression and the way she looks so inhuman is even creepier than the A.I girl who actively codes her facial expressions.

She takes a leap up and tries to dive down from another direction, and she loses her right leg for her efforts.

Come on! Isn't that enough already? You don't have level ups here to heal you, you know? I guess she would have a way to heal overtime though, it seems the core is capable of that.

She also can't locate my spiders' threads since they are invisible and basically cut out of reality. Just go back okay?

She floats up a bit as if trying to confirm something, then floats down, gradually and gradually and gradually and this time I make sure to cut just close enough to the core to send a message.

My message is received loud and clear and she shoots back up to the Thermosphere without a second wasted. Haaaaa, I'm so glad you are at least a little reasonable.

The cut off body parts are immediately teleported to my sub space, why? Because I genuinely believe someone would be stupid enough to do something foolish with it if it gets to earth, these parahumans seems to cause more problems for themselves after all, it's almost like a competition to them. I know I'm stereotyping a bit but you get the point.

'Soldiers, report back to base… we have won the war!'

I declare over the monitor, although I say that, I'm actually not taking my spiders away from there, I left them in their position in case she decides to come back, I do not know how these murder aliens think so I would rather not risk it.

Hmmm, I think this calls for some celebration. Yes, I definitely worked hard so I will reward myself for my hardwork by ordering *pan pan ran*… premium A5 wagyu beef!!… ah I was almost drooling there, hehehehe

Now 'Foodboy' give me your best meat… I think that sounded better in my head, wait but I'm saying all these in my head in the first place… Arrgh, don't think about it, let's just enjoy the beef in peace.

I telekinetically take out 2 can of juice from the fridge, also I would not be drinking alcohol even though I really want to, I mean I eventually caught on you know, drinking with D and then getting recorded on camera was very embarrassing, why didn't The Demon Lord or Vampy ever tell me of my embarrassing moments?

Were they embarrassed by me or they didn't want to hurt my feelings? I think it's the former for Vampy and the latter for The Demon Lord, she can be weirdly kind like that, I think back to nolstagic memories with a small smile on my face.

And besides I only thought alcohol makes me not remember what happened before drinking but it seemed alcohol made me do many things

Sitting in my kotatsu in the room, with my A5 wagyu beef and juice, I take my pad and start up the game I've been trying to beat for 2 days now

Another day, another dollar (read: game)
