Chapter 165: Someone Even Spotted a Gundam!

Ruiko Saten suddenly rushed out.

The entire Academy City was under Aleister's surveillance.

Her sudden disappearance was bound to attract attention, wasn't it?

Was Ruiko really okay with this?

Hearing Takumi's concern, Ruiko blinked.

"I left from inside my dormitory." "He probably wouldn't monitor private rooms, right?" "So it should be fine." "Besides, I already filed a leave request with the teacher~." "And I've set up my phone and everything."

Ruiko didn't seem worried at all.

She was just a minor, and not even a powerful esper.

She had also made some preparations.

So she believed she wouldn't be discovered easily.

That's why Ruiko wasn't concerned.

"Really now?" "Let's hope so."

Takumi glanced at her.

Things weren't that simple.

If anything happened in Academy City, that man would likely know.

Ruiko might run into trouble later.

But for now, there probably wouldn't be any immediate issues.

Even if Aleister knew Ruiko had vanished, he might just observe from the shadows.

Not to mention, she had made preparations.

So maybe it wouldn't be noticed.

Takumi didn't dwell on the matter.

Once everyone had gathered, the group began discussing the next steps.

"Let's plan ahead." "Who knows how long the fusion of these two worlds will last." "I've already started monitoring the entire planet." "If any large-scale threats appear, we'll eliminate them immediately."

As Takumi spoke, he waved his hand.

Countless virtual screens filled the space around them.

Live feeds from all over the world, and even from orbit, appeared.

"This really makes things more convenient." "If anything happens, we can respond right away." "Still, we should make some preparations." "Let's spread out." "That way we can support each other as needed."

Zhongli's suggestion made Takumi nod.

"Alright. That works." "Old man, stay here." "I'll leave you a flyer — that way you can move anywhere at any time." "I'll head east." "As for Miori, go wherever you like." "Bronya, same for you." "Akeno, you and Rias head to the other side — Northern Europe."

Takumi quickly began assigning tasks.

Kevin and Qianjie had already gone elsewhere.

They could be coordinated later.

No big issues.

As for the others — mostly regular people — they'd stick together and act freely.

Asuna and the rest were only slightly above average now.

They had no supernatural powers at the moment.

But with Bronya and Chika Fujiwara around, it wouldn't be a problem.

Their abilities were more than enough to handle smaller threats.

Plus, Yuu was with them too.

"I'm fine with that."

Hearing Takumi's instructions, Akeno smiled and nodded.

Going there was fine.

No big deal.

She then released Rias and the others.

Another wave of people emerged outside.

This made Erina take several extra glances.

Especially at the… indecent ones. Meow meow, this was insane.

"Is this the other world?" "There's no magic in the atmosphere."

As soon as she arrived, Rias noticed the difference between this world and theirs.

That alone surprised her.

"Long time no see, Takumi-kun."

Still, Rias didn't dwell on it.

Seeing Takumi made her eyes light up.

She quickly approached to greet him.

It was clear she was happy to see him again.

"Rias, long time no see!" "Next, please head to the other region." "Akeno and I already discussed it." "Akeno, hold onto the spatial bracelet for now." "Everyone gets one." "You can store defeated ingredients in them." "They're valuable items."

Takumi produced a batch of spatial bracelets and distributed them to his allies.

He asked them to collect all defeated ingredients.

"Just treat this mission as a material gathering expedition." "The main goal is to prevent large-scale human casualties in this world." "It'll be a bit tedious." "Take out any threats you find." "I'll also deploy unmanned ships." "If an area is in trouble, I'll have Prometheus take care of it."

"Everyone just needs to deal with the situations they encounter."

That about summed it up.

After finishing his explanation, Takumi opened a spatial portal.

He glanced toward Akeno.

She nodded.

"Understood." "We'll head out first."

With that, Himeko and Rias' group entered the portal.

Then Takumi disappeared as well.

He reappeared in the sky and began deploying several massive Star-Destroyer-class warships.

Their sudden appearance immediately set the internet ablaze.

Everyone was shocked.

What was going on?

Where did those warships come from?

Was this an alien invasion?

First came the strange creatures, now aliens?

The warships that appeared near Sakura were the first to be noticed.

They spread across the internet instantly.

And before long, someone even captured footage of a Gundam!!

This was utterly absurd.

A Gundam had shown up?

Was this still the world they knew?

At the Nakiri household, Senzaemon was dumbfounded as he looked up at the ship in the sky.

"Even the tech is this advanced?"

Good heavens — those were space cruisers, weren't they?

Several ships had been deployed by Takumi, and some immediately left for other locations.

The goal was to suppress any major destruction from the new creatures.

"Takumi isn't just a tech genius." "He can also use all kinds of magic."

Chika Fujiwara had seen Takumi join the group firsthand.

And even witnessed him fly on the spot.

She probably understood Takumi best.

Technology, magic — he had both.

He used anything that could enhance his power.

Because of that, Takumi was truly versatile.

He had offensive, support, and defensive skills.

A textbook all-rounder.

Even in tech, he had no weaknesses.

That was something to envy.

After releasing the warships, Takumi disappeared again.

This time, he arrived in the East.

Although it wasn't his world, the familiar faces below made him feel quite happy.

There was a sense of homecoming.
