"BIIIITCH!!!"
At the last moment, Eva's scream filled the cockpit. In a last-ditch effort, she fired all laser turrets simultaneously, aiming directly at the incoming attacks—intercepting them mid-shot!
*BOOM!*
The ship shook violently, warning sirens blaring, but surprisingly, the damage was minimal—so much so that we could practically ignore it for now.
Honestly, I was shocked that her stunt had worked in time.
She had less than 100 milliseconds to adjust her aim and fire without charging—that reaction speed was inhuman!
"Hey, bastard captain! Stop daydreaming...!"
"... Ah!"
I snapped back to reality.
Without hesitation, I maneuvered the Range Falcon further away, beyond enemy targeting range. Thankfully, after the initial volley, no follow-up attack came.
Not because they let us go—
But because of their short lapse in focus was punished.
