Chapter 3, Episode 2: Glimmers of Hope

Start from the beginning
                                    

*Gunfire* *Explosions* *Enemy forces eliminated*


Aru: (confident expression) Ha! They're retreating. As they should. No one messes with Problem Solver 68 and gets away with it.


Haruka: (long-range comms) A-Aru-sama! I've finished off the enemies on this side...


Aru: Well done Haruka. Efficient as always!


Mutsuki: (long-range comms) Hehe... We're on a roll! The cannon fodder keeps coming and triggers the mines and explosives we set.


Aru: Naturally. The enemy forces were arriving miles away to our position. It gave us ample time to prepare and corner them into our kill zone.


Mutsuki: (long-range comms) Hmm... Now that I see it, there's a lot of smoke over at the other districts. You think that's a good or bad sign?


Aru: Hmm?


[Aru checks towards the direction to the center of the city from them and sees several smoke fires coming from each district...]

Aru: (sweating face)

Aru: (sweating face) ...


Mutsuki: (long-range comms) Those big False Sanctums are moving further into the city. I wonder why haven't they come over here. Did they miss us by chance?


Haruka: (worried face) Aru-sama... What should we do now?


Aru: (Things are looking terrible out there. How come? The ship reached the Ark, so everything should be wrapping up by now. ...! Did something happen to Sensei and the others? Kayoko... are you safe?)


Mutsuki: (long-range comms) Kivotos to Aru~. What's our next plan?


Aru: Huh? Oh, that's obvious. It's time to retreat to higher ground and restock on supplies before trying again. Once we're ready, our next target is heading to the center of the city and help in the defense.


Haruka: (long-range comms) Y-Yes!


Mutsuki: (long-range comms) Okay! Where should we meet up? You're pretty far from us at your sniper position.


Aru: (confident expression) I'll be fine Mutsuki. There's nothing that can deter me at this stage. Take Haruka and meet up back at our temporary hideout in the Gehenna district. I'll meet up as soon as possible.
