Ultrawoman Elea

Episode 11-3.5: Will of The Herrscher

"WHAT?! YOU LET HIM OUT?!"

Yelled Himeko in a cracked voice after hearing that one of her audacious knights got dispatched without authorization from the leaders, almost leaving her with a heart attack.

"I'm sorry! We got a confirmed Judgement-Type Honkai, Benares, coming to our Southwest of Hyperion! Y/N is trying to lure it away...!"

"You fool! He's not in good condition to be in the operation zone!"

"But, ma'am... the enemy was advancing very quickly. If Y/N hadn't decided to take action, we would all have died!"

"What do you mean?"

"Come in, Helios! I'm luring the dragon away from our battleship. It's my choice!"

"Y/N... Y/N! Y/N!"

Himeko almost dropped her communication device to the ground and immediately put on the comms.

"Y/N! Y/N, are you there, Y/N?! Answer me, Y/N!"

"I'm alright! I'm trying to lure the dragon out! It's not after the Hyperion! It's after me!"

Y/N replied in his rather distressed tone. He was luring Benares into the sky. He looked back and saw the dragon soaring in desperation as she got closer.

"Are you out of your mind, boy?! You would have been safer in Hyperion!"

"It's not about that! It's trying to hunt me down! It's after being with strong Honkai Energy! That's me!"

"You already know what will happen to Hyperion if I remain there... No matter how strong its defenses are, the Honkai will keep assaulting it with no sweat..."

Himeko could not hide the admiration in her voice.

"Y/N... you are doing this for us? You're insane...! How can you even survive up there?"

"Gonna try my best to keep her away from our mothership... I see she brought forth multiple small Honkai Beasts along..."

Himeko, Theresa, and The Captain stare at each other, trying to recollect their thoughts about their audacious knight.

Juggler peered back to the big window while tapping his comms in a bemusing expression.

"Y/N, bring that dragon to us."

Theresa jolted in shock.

"H-Huh? Captain? Do you want him to lure the dragon to Helios? Why...?"

As Himeko looked through the window, she suddenly had a realization.

"Wait, you're trying to attack that dragon?!"

Juggler glared at the two with a smile.

"I won't let his audacity die in vain."

The two could not say anything after the Captain's words.

"Lure that dragon to the Helios, Y/N."

"Rog— I mean Echo."

The comms ended there. Juggler stared at his Commander while walking out from the bridge.

He had everything according to his plan.

"Himeko. Follow me. Prepare for the worst. Theresa, stay on the bridge."

"Echo, Captain! Be safe out there."

"Echo, Captain! On my way!"

Himeko immediately followed after her Captain, wondering what they would do.
