It was a big fuss in the morning about the lizard meat I had prepared.
I was still sleepy.
“Meat~♪!”
“Eh!? What happened~?”
What’s happening? Amazing, amazing!
I never thought that the credit for my hunt would be stolen by a guy who “just found” the edible meat placed in the shade.
I woke up and explained what the meat was and how I obtained it.
“Kyaaa~♪! As expected~♪♪”
I reveled in the sense of superiority as the women praised me, ignoring the resentful glares of the man who just found the meat.
I proceeded to grill the lizard meat.
As it sizzled, the other men joined the women in cheering.
Meat after a long time.
Someone’s throat audibly gulped.
“It’s three slices per person~. There’s no more than that, so don’t fight~.”
“Yeees~♪♪”
“Oh, oh, oh~. Give it to me quickly~?”
A fight over meat was out of the question.
I told them to line up, but they were reluctant.
Eager to eat, they thrust out washed wooden plates that served as their dishes.
“Line up obediently~?!”
After I somehow managed to distribute it to everyone, I enjoyed my three slices of meat and observed my surroundings.
To attract the opposite sex.
To get more meat.
There was a lot of movement.
Gambling with meat as chips was fine, but they needed to hurry before the meat got tough.
Attracting the opposite sex… women, and maybe even having sex.
If your child is a daughter, I’ll welcome her, but a son will be put to labor♪
It was the second day of island life.
The island survey progressed.
“Meat~~”
“Where are the monsters~~”
Eating the meat.
The men, motivated, worked hard.
It resulted in the women showing off their survival and outdoor skills to each other.
And they found the entrance to a labyrinth/dungeon on the island.
“That’s mine!!”
“Don’t fight~.”
The first floor of the labyrinth was a floor filled with uncertain goblins and kobolds.
Goblin materials were, of course, unpalatable.
Kobold materials were popular, edible if you thought of them as dog meat.
As soon as we encountered goblins right after entering, we started searching for the stairs to the second floor.
We are currently exploring the second floor.
Based on our experience of descending the first and second floors, the floors are not that wide.
They are smaller than my artificial labyrinth (which fits inside the Royal Capital).
On the second floor, there are two or three evolved or stronger individuals of the species from the first floor, acting in groups.
It also served as training for the Otherworlders.
“Look, here comes the next one~.”
“Ooooooh!”
“Go for it! We’ll support you~!”
“Whoooa! Watch my success~☆!”
Island life was starting to get on track.
I wanted to become stronger before Brain and the Izul army found us.
***
Magical Kingdom Izul.
Grand Dome.
Conference Room.
“Those who waste cost (magic consumption, ink for spell formulas, personnel expenses, offerings, etc.) will face death.”
“W-wait for ussss!”
“…”
The Great Sage, revered as a god, unleashed heavenly punishment (lightning strikes) on the incompetent former sages who had let the abducted individuals from another world escape, leaving no ashes.
“What’s the situation?”
“Yes!”
The sages who escaped the heavenly punishment reported on the war situation with the neighboring country across the sea.
“Fools!”
“Gyaaah!”
Two more former sages emerged.
The Great Sage was silent for a while, stating that he didn’t want them on the ground.
A few days later, a platoon of biological weapons appeared from the sky.
“Th-this is a biological weapon…”
The sages waiting in the dome cautiously addressed the biological weapons one by one.
They decided to send them to the front lines immediately.
Biological weapons.
Beings created by the Great Sage as a contingency force in outer space.
They had never descended to the ground before.
The sages used magic sense to gauge the power of the biological weapons.
The result was that they possessed more magic power than the sages themselves.
Despite their youthful appearance, their physical strength was also found to be immense.
“With this…♪”
“We can win against the numerical superiority of the enemy machines [Alexy]♪”
The sages left the dome management to their subordinates and proceeded to the war zone with the biological weapons. From their dome, they watched from a vantage point.
For sages, exposing themselves to enemy soldiers only provides information and offers no benefit; it is a pure loss.
Therefore, they took refuge in the safe dome and watched from above.
They hacked into the long-range magic images of each ship in the Maritime Fleet.
Battleship [Alexy]
Biological Weapon [Alexy]
Battleship [Alexy]
← [Alexy]
Battleship [Alexy]

The Brain sub-units, while remaining vigilant, executed Kamikaze attacks as the biological weapons’ forms were captured.
“Xxx~~ XXX”
The biological weapons, emitting sounds of unknown language or origin, wielded magic.
“Attack magic, ugh.”
“What’s wrong? All units, be alert, gegege.”
“Aaaah, gagaga.”
The magic circuits became unstable.
Distracted by the sudden situation and the control of their machines, they became easy targets for the Maritime Fleet.
“Uooooooh!♪♪”
The enemy machines suddenly started behaving erratically. It was clear that the helper individuals (biological weapons) brought by the sages had done something.
They could be shot down before they crashed = overwhelming victory.
“All ships! Follow me—!”
The commanders of each ship responded to the order of the Commander-in-Chief of the flagship.
“We can win♪ We can win♪ Increase speed~~♪”
“Aye aye, sir♪ Increasing speed~~”
They even had the luxury to joke around.
The Brain sub-units, facing the abnormal state of their machines, sent an emergency communication to the machines in the airspace that had not yet been attacked.
“Immediately withdraw from this airspace. Sink the battleships from the coast.”
This was the order for long-range cannon fire.
“Understood.”
“Evacuate immediately. I repeat.”
The modified [Alexy] series, unable to fly, fired as soon as they were within range of the Izul Maritime Fleet. They fired repeatedly until their cannons were on the verge of melting from heat.
“Hold fire.”
The impact information was shared from observer units, and enemy battleships were sunk.
It was now outside the range where the biological weapon’s machine-disrupting ability, their trump card, could be effective.
“Gyaaaah.”
“XXX sunk! XXX is in distress… Ahhh, XXX has sunk!”
“Reverse course! Withdraw from the enemy’s effective range! Quickly—”
DOKAAAN!
It hit the bridge directly. The Izul Maritime Fleet awoke from the illusion of victory and, in utter confusion, reversed course, executing a tactical retreat from the battlefield. The sages, who had been watching from the safety of the rear, turned pale. They contacted the Commander-in-Chief of the Maritime Fleet.
“Do not retreat!? Turn back immediately and defeat the enemy!!”
Swallowing the words that he had no other options, the Commander-in-Chief tried to force the sages to change their minds and focus on offense.
Finally, using the lives of their family and acquaintances as a shield.
“Emergency communication to all ships! Stop the tactical retreat—! Change course for the enemy homeland—!!”
“Captain—!?”
Everyone on the bridge exclaimed, asking if they had misheard the order.
However, the order was not a mistake, and they trembled with fear.
“I don’t want to die. I don’t want to die, so I’ll just tremble like this…”
“If only I could pretend I didn’t hear the Captain’s order—”
Gat!
“Gua?!”
“It’s an order!!”
He struck the helmsman on the back of the head and warned the others who were trembling. Obey the order, or the next blow will not be with a fist.
“Understood, Captain!!”
“I don’t want to die. Better to die a few minutes later… I’ll bet on surviving even a little longer.”
The other commanders also sensed the sudden change in the Captain, the Commander-in-Chief.
Praying that it wouldn’t be their turn next.
“Order understood.”
They responded one after another.
Meanwhile, Rayos and the others were having a fun conversation about what to make with the kobold meat.
“Chikushou—!”
DODODON!!!
The biological weapons sank into the sea. As they surfaced, the support device, Back Weapon, rained down on them.
“Guhah.”
“Mogureaa.”
“Hiii.”
Izul suffered immense damage. Shalsal lost units.
Since they were in mass-production form, it was not a crippling blow.
A reinforcement unit would arrive tomorrow or the day after.
In contrast, Izul was suffering from a shortage of personnel and battleships.
The number of powerful sages had also decreased, causing significant problems in managing the army.
The Brain sub-units were not so lenient as to overlook this.
Finally, they began their invasion of the Izul sea area.
“Be wary of defensive forces.”
“Our numbers are greater.”
“We will bomb the enemy’s homeland in one go.”
“Advance. Advance.”
The flight-specialized [Alexy] units made their debut.
The battleship-transformed [Alexy] units discreetly transported long-range artillery-type [Alexy] units from the sea.
