"No, I appreciate your help, but it's not necessary..."
Yholan of course wasn't stupid, as a man he was used to seeing through women's lust, so he wouldn't be so easily deceived, also unlike Miriam who helped him without asking for anything in return, these three weren't its type.
"Is that so? I should consider it more"
"Yes, yes, it is very dangerous here"
"We Will Definitely Protect You"
Yholan's refusal did not affect the trio of sisters, they were used to being rejected often so they kept insisting.
"..."
Yholan's expression sank and she took a step back, likewise Miriam sighed, she knew it was time to be Yholan's shield.
Although she didn't want to do it she had no choice....
"Wow? Are these the last ones?"
But it was at that moment that a voice stopped their actions and the group instantly went into combat mode, the trio of sisters turned around and pointed their weapons, but what they saw left the group stunned.
"What... are you doing... here?..."
Some of the sisters asked in disbelief and how not to do it, since the ones who appeared were the judges, with their respective Wunder and they weren't just any Wunder, they were the most advanced of Deus Ex Machina, Miriam knew this even though her Wunder was a personalized one, in the other timeline sold out en masse.
(Liam....what is he doing here?!)
Miriam could not understand, in the previous timeline this did not happen, this means that the future has deviated so much that it is impossible to know what will happen.
"Cleaning, there are many pilots..."
Responding with a smile, Arthur brought his hands behind his back and as if he noticed his confusion, he began to explain.
"This is recruiting you know, so the pilots have to do their best, but there are a lot of people who have been hiding in the lower levels and waiting without intending to go down further."
Shaking his head Arthur sighed in disappointment.
"This isn't right, so we decided to team up and clean up a bit, plus as judges we're also the enforcer of this draft, so it's better if we assess their strength ourselves."
Clapping his hands, Arthur's smile deepened that he made the girls present gulp, there was no way her smile was so attractive that even Lynne who always remained expressionless had a blush on her cheeks.
"But don't worry, you are the last group and you are on the qualified list, but I don't know because there are many interesting pilots and this list can change, so I suggest you do your best, only then will you qualify without issues..."
*BOOMMMM
Finishing speaking and the first to move was Lynne, she moved quickly and took advantage of the moment that they were still assimilating Arthur's words to attack, her energy cannon hit the target and one of the sisters was hit with success ...
"Come on, hold on, hold on as long as you can"
*BOOMMMM
Joining up with Lynne, Indara and Liben also released their arsenal, only unlike Indara and Lynne, Libe aimed it straight at Miriam.
She had to eliminate this FMC.
Arthur on the other hand continued to smile as the group withdrew from the barrage, no matter how good their defenses are, if they are hit by Lynne's weapons, they will exhaust their magic power and lose.
So they fell back and took cover, fortunately for Miriam and Yholan, the bombardment was concentrated on the trio of sisters, while she was only hit by Libe's bullets, which due to her low power did not affect her...
At the end of shooting, only a cloud of smoke remained, as for the group of prey, they had already escaped, they would be fools if they stayed.
"I'll go for the strongest..."
Lynne only had one target and that was the trio of sisters, for Lynne who had seen Arthur's combat power, only those women represented a threat.
Of course, even they wouldn't do anything to Arthur but he wasn't going to say it.
"Then we'll go for the other two, Liam, what do you say you help Big Sister Lynne?"
Lynne was surprised by her little sister's suggestion and also raised her thumb to her heart, this was a good opportunity to show her 'Feminine' side to Arthur so she was pleased with her little sister, she even thought of giving him a reward since it seemed that Libe had given up on Arthur.
(I can't let Miriam and Liam be together!)
Of course Libe's real thoughts were to get Arthur away from Miriam, since this seemed to be a classic event where the FMC beats the powerful MC.
Of course Libe doesn't think that Arthur can lose, however due to luck points and fate, it's possible that Miriam can still force Arthur to lose.
And like a cliché, Arthur will take an interest in her for beating him being weaker and after she falls in love with her.
Such an event was so predictable that Libe was not going to allow it, even if Arthur's probability of losing is less than 0.0001%.
So Libe was not going to allow any more loss of points, he had to defeat Miriam and thus break his luck points.
So she went to her strategy that has worked so far and that is to use Indara to take down these FMC.
"Hey?"
On the other hand, Indara didn't want to part with Arthur, she showed a cold look towards Libe for dragging her into such shit, for Indara, Miriam wasn't worth it, even as a test, so she was even more upset to leave Arthur alone with that woman.
(I'll explain later! I promise to make it up to you!)
Libe flinched from Indara's intensity and winked.
(You owe me a lot!!)
In the end Indara compromised and decided to follow Libe.
"Hmm no problem"
Arthur had no problem with that, just as he ignored the silent conversation between Indara and Libe, since the Artificial Dungeon itself is his own eyes so he could see all the development between Miriam and Libe, Arthur had already realized the friction that these two women had and I was a little interested in that since there was history and of course, it's fun...
"Don't worry, we'll catch up with you as soon as we're done"
Of course Arthur didn't think so, but he attended to Libe's words, so the group split up.
-------------------------
"Your girlfriend is jealous..."
After fleeing the bombardment, Miriam couldn't help but complain to Yholan, Libe was just as disgusting as she remembered her.
Even if Yholan was with her, she still had no mercy.
"Ahhh... what am I going to do?! What if I misunderstand our relationship?! That must be it, otherwise I wouldn't attack you!"
Yholan on the other hand wasn't even angry that his supposed girlfriend shot him with a gun on the contrary, he held his head regretfully, he really didn't want Libe to take the friendship he had with Miriam the wrong way.
He couldn't deny that Míriam is a good woman, but her love was still Libe who understood him the most, although she is now cold and distant, I blame this on Arthur's Incubus.
Everything was fine until she showed up, that seductive incubus.
"No, no! I must explain it to him!"
Yholan stood up, the best thing to avoid misunderstandings was to speak up front, so Yholan regained his confidence, they trusted that as long as he explained the situation, Libe would understand.
"I do not advise you to go, you will be shot again, I don't think your girlfriend heard you"
"Of course she will! Libe will understand I'm sure!"
Shaking her head, Miriam looked at him pityingly, love is blind and Yholan couldn't see beyond Libe's personality, which was very sad, still.
(Not my problem...)
It was better to get rid of this burden surely Libe would shoot him, even if after this Yholan still clinging to Libe was good, so Miriam would have more time with Arthur therefore she didn't stop Yholan anymore.
"Luck..."
Annoyed by his words, Yholan turned his head and snorted coldly.
"Hmph! I trust her...Ackkk?!"
*Bom
"...!?"
Yholan did not finish speaking before a projectile impacted her body, creating an explosion and a cloud of smoke, Miriam did not react in time to save him and the only thing she could do is use her protective shield since another projectile could shock her....
A few seconds later the cloud of smoke dispersed, there were no traces of Yholan, he was eliminated in a single attack, Miriam clucked at this, there was no mercy for Yholan.
"Tsk...how cruel!"
Miriam wanted to say that she warned him but it was too bad, she was already out, it was still too much even for Libe, at least a man player like Libe should have some self control.
"One less...."
"Hmm?"
But the next words silenced her completely, since the person who shot Yholan was not Libe...
She was the strongest girl in the class...
"Indara Lujan..."
"You follow!"
Indara did not differentiate between men and women, she treated both sexes equally, this was very clear, now she made sense why Yholan was treated rudely.
In front of Indara, except for Arthur, this woman will hit them if they get close.
"Damn, what a waste of time..."
Still that doesn't change anything, Miriam quickly took a battle stance.
(Tsk! Fine, I didn't want to face her, but never mind)
Miriam was not afraid of her, although her first regression was careful with her, in this life it was impossible for Miriam to bend to her.
(This time I don't care if you're Arthur's sister, I'm going to beat you!)
"What good eyes..."
As an intern military warrior, Indara noticed the abnormality in Miriam, this girl who was at the bottom of the class was very different from how she remembered.
"I like her, but that makes her want to do my best"
"You'd better do them, otherwise you're going to lose!"
"Haha I'll finish quickly, Liam is waiting for me..."
Indara ignored Miriam's statement, for her even if her eyes and her aura changed from her, it doesn't matter, Miriam is weaker than her, therefore there was no way to lose.
*Bam
And as a tacit agreement between the two of them, the two of them stopped using long-range weapons and used their lightsaber, at the same time as the thrusters activated.
