Chapter 15: Onizume!

Chapter 15 — Onizume!

Interstellar Gas Planet | XXXX Time.

The strange runaway Gauna was moving strangely ever since it arrived at the Gas Planet.

It devoured.

And devoured.

Again and again.

It did not think.

And thus have no reasons to stop.

Without showing mercy—

The Gauna consumed its own kinds heartlessly.

It broke the taboo of its own race.

And turn different.

Growing more strange, different, and hideous with each passing time.

It continued.

Without halting—

Devouring its own kinds.

And thereby empowering itself.

The Gauna soon devoured all other Gauna that were inhibiting the planet.

Nothing was left.

Maybe except for something that was much more dangerous.

A small Mass Union Ship that existed around the outside of the Gas Planet.

They were the gas-like thing itself.

That Gauna Guardian now looked different from before.

It transformed, evolving.

Its humanoid body was much bigger and muscular, looking beastly and ferecious. Its placenta armour were abnormally dense and hard, having disgusting large veins throbbing hideously on its surface.

The Gauna evolved by consuming its own kind.

It awakened the sealed Gluttony.

And became a powerful Gauna.

It created an unique kind of core that almost have infinite energy by fusing its own Gauna Core with the Particle Reactor that was gained from a Guardian.

The Gauna was now extremely fast, agile, and powerful in terms of strength.

The Type 18 Guardian was like a helplessly sheep when compared to it.

Now that it was so powerful, it now wanted exact its revenge against humanity.

It gluttonous placenta eyes landed upon Sidonia that was faraway.

And decided to start first by devouring Jason Star.

The Knight Of Hope.

....

Jason Star's Daily Log | Sidonia | Day 84.

Toha Heavy Industry | 3:00 PM.

Several days had passed since the elimination of the connected-type Gauna. The daily life of Jason returned to normal. His usual days consisted of spending time in the Toha Heavy Industry, learning knowledge and sometimes also helping them.

And at last, the first prototype of the Guardian Knight was finally completed.

It wasn't the finished product, but just the prototype version used for testing phase. It was also used to see if it can win the rights to produce Type 19 for Sidonia.

"So this is the Guardian Knight...." Kobayashi stared toward the gigantic machine with astonishment.

It was Toha Heavy Industry new project creation—The Guardian Knight!

The Guardian Knight looked entirely different compared to normal Guardian as it was built by combining Sidonia's and Mr. Alien's advance technologies.

The Guardian Knight was built to look more human-like in terms of appearance to achieve the best compatibility between man and machine.

It was large and tall, looking muscular yet also very streamline—A four arm Type 19 Guardian that looked grand and cooler compared to the old type of Guardians.

(A/N: This is gonna be what the finished mass-production Type 19 Guardian will look like, but just add two more arms at the back, connected to the main back thruster. The Type 19 for Jason will be different from the mass-production type.)

Kobayashi was here because she heard from them that the Guardian Knight was mow completed.

She wanted to see it for herself.

Jason and Sasaki stood besides Kobayashi, looking proud and confident about their work.

"Not bad, right? This is the baby we created filled with pure passions!" Sasaki smacked the metallic body of the Guardian Knight.

"Sasaki, don't make your words sound so misleading," Jason interrupted her while rolling his eyes.

"Stop thinking too much about it! You're the one with dirty mind here!" Sasaki grew angry, glaring at him.

Jason clicked his tongue because those words were nonsense.

Kobayashi was surprised to see them now very close with each others. However, it didn't seemed that surprising when considering that the two of them spent a lot of time together while creating the Guardian Knight.

"About the Guardian Knight, explain about its details to me," Kobayashi said curiously.

"Sure, no problem. I remind you not to be too shock, okay?" Sasaki chuckled while handing Kobayashi a smart tablet that contained huge amount of informations.

Kobayashi took it, and started reading very interestedly.

While she was reading, Sasaki and Jason would sometimes provide some explanations that made it easier for her to understand.

The important thing about the Guardian Knight is that it was not too expensive to create. The budget to create one was just slightly higher than a normal Type 18 Guardian.

Kobayashi's eyes lit up, thinking it would be easy to mass-produce the Guardian Knight, and also use much less valuable resources.

The only problem would be about its capabilities and functionality.

However, the moment she finished reading everything about the Guardian Knight, those doubts disappeared, and was instead replaced by pure amazement.

"Do you think we have a chance at winning the competition for the rights of Type 19 against Kunato Development?" Sasaki asked, but her face showed she was extremely confident.

"You have a high chance of winning... No, it's not even a competition, your prototype is already sure to win it," Kobayashi said with hints of excitement.

Sasaki and Jason laughed, feeling happy to hear those words that sounded like a compliment from the commander herself.

Kobayashi soon left satisfied after asking some more questions.

Jason looked at the Type 19 Guardian Knight that stood before him. His heart was pumping rapidly, he was very excited.

He couldn't wait to pilot the Guardian Knight that he helped with to create.

Jason took out the tablet that contained all the information about the Guardian Knight.

Along with its revised and improvised computer program system, the Guardian Knight's main engine, inner and outer structures, and weapon system were transformed entirely by including various data from several past and present pilots, including Jason.

The main engine located at the solar plexus of the Guardian Knight—the Higgs Particle Reactor was further optimized and improved by Sasaki and Mr. Alien.

The engine was now the the Anti-Gauna System: Higgs Particles Fusion Reactor that provided an almost inexhaustible energy for the Guardian Knight. It was also infused with Mr. Alien's new element—Antinium.

The Fusion Reactor was created through the fusion of the particles to produce a different type of particle that was much more superior—like being denser, concentrated, and powerful, allowing its output and performance to reach an unimaginable degree that completely surpassed its previous generations by a whole new realm.

It was a work of art!

The Higgs Particles Collection System was removed and changed into something much better—the Higgs Particles Converter Filter that can actively and passively absorb Higgs Particles from the surroundings in order to help the Fusion Reactor reach the state of almost having inexhaustible energy.

The Higgs Particle Converter Filter can also absorb and store the excess energy that was released from the Fusion Reactor and then compress those excess energy into the energy storage that was built within the Converter Filter which can be used for later uses. It was built just behind the cockpit.

Although the various pipes and hosts were responsible for moving the particles throughout the Guardian's body, it was inefficient and also wasted large spaces, and thus it was thrashed. However, it was instead replaced by a much better alternative.

The High Efficiency Energy Conductive Silver Thread Tissue. Or Silver Thread Tissue for short.

The Silver Thread Tissue was created by using silver materials as the base and then adding flexible, malleable conductive materials to create the flexible and durable thread-like alloys which was termed as Silver Thread Tissue. It was created by also mixing some alchemy and chemistry stuffs into it.

The Silver Thread Tissue not only increase the efficiency usage and make it less prone to malfunctions—but it also increases the Guardian Knight's movement, strength, tensile strength and speed and were much like human muscles, something which those inefficient pipes cannot do. It's also able to absorb the particle energy to further reinforce its physical capabilities.

The Internal Skeletal Frame was now composed of highly compressed alloys made out of Tungsten and Carbon, making it not only durable and slimmer, but also lightweight and have certain flexibility. It provides more spaces since the stuffy pipes were removed, allowing more rooms for weapons and modifications.

The Toha Heavy Industry managed to learn from Mr. Alien's technology to compress alloys into an incomparable degree, causing the molecules to leave no gaps and were glued tightly to each others. Its tensile strength and hardness were superior grade, but it was on the heavier side.

The External Armour Frame was further improved to provide more protection and defensive abilities, now made out of high compressed alloys made out of lead and steel.

The Guardian Knight also experienced some weird modification. It now had a secondary arms that was termed as Option Works. The sub-arms were connected to the main thruster, and was able to wield weapons and move itself to either provide attack or defend, allowing more variations of options against the many placenta arms of Gauna. The hands of the secondary arms can also act as grappling hooks.

The sub-arms weren't too difficult to control as it can move with simple commands, and mostly controlled by Automated System since humans only have two arms. The pilots only needed to get familiar with using it.

The main thruster was revised and improved, making it small and compact now. It was built with a filter that made it difficult to break by not allowing foreign matters or energy get through inside. The main thruster contains four turbines that allowed for extremely fast flying speed which was even faster than a squad of Guardian's performing the palm formation. The thrusters were all built with Silver Thread Tissue, causing its output and speed to become better.

There wasn't only a main thruster on the back, but also small thrusters on the legs, waist, and shoulders to allow for more speed and agile maneuverability.

The internal cockpit changed, receiving various improvements.

It now had three wide panoramic hologram monitors, dual control joysticks, and instrument panels. The panoramic monitors are linked to external sensors and cameras and can multi-task to display other information such as status or even as a video communication system.

It became even more simple to use, as it was innovative.

The Guardian Knight's basic weapon system was now changed to become the Anti-Gauna System that used energy-based weapons.

The Higgs Particle Cannon(Head), Shoulder Mounted Laser Cannon(Shoulder), High-Speed Vibration Energy Blade(Right Arm), and Energy Machine Gun(Left Arm).

There were still some weapons that didn't used energy, but it was just there in case of emergency.

All in all, the Guardian Knight was extremely powerful. It was a massive improvement toward the fighting force of Sidonia that will allow them to fight against more Gauna easier and increase they survival rate.

Jason had heard from Sasaki that in the future she was gonna customized his own personal Type 19 Guardian Knight. It was gonna be more stronger and cooler than normal Guardian Knight.

Hehe, this why Jason loves Sasaki.

'O' Sasaki, Sasaki, you really know to please my heart.'

'As a repayment, I will do my best to stop humanity from getting extinct.'

Jason Star's Daily Log | Day 86.

Command Room | 8:00 PM.

Jason went toward Sidonia's common room after Kobayashi called over for him. He didn't know what she wanted to talk about him.

However, he guessed it must have been due to the fact he was the Guardian Knight's test pilot after willingly volunteering.

And from what he heard today, a planetary missile was gonna be fired toward the Gas Planet in front of Sidonia, so they must wanted him to present there and quickly prepare for the Gauna's attack while using Guardian Knight.

Jason soon arrived at the command bridge, and it was his first time here. It looked like just what he imagined.

A futuristic room that was filled with various kinds of mechanical instruments.

There were only few people present—Kobayashi, Seii, and two masked assistants.

Jason greeted Kobayashi and the others, but only received their nods. They were currently busy with something, so he couldn't help about it.

He now had no choice, but to observe what they were doing silently.

"Planetary Missile, ready to fire!" reported by one of the masked assistant.

"The target is ahead of Sidonia, the Interstellar Gas Planet XXXXX!"

Jason knew what planet that was as it was the place where the last Gauna from connected-type Gauna escaped."

"It's likely that there's gonna be other Gauna inside, but we have no choice other than to destroy the planet, and drive the Gauna away while Sidonia is still faraway from it!"

"Planetary Missile aim confirmed! It's ready to fire!"

"Fire!" Kobayashi commanded solemnly.

A gigantic missile soon left Sidonia and flew toward the space, heading toward the Gas Planet.

Jason was astonished and amazed.

"Planetary Missile impact in three.... two..... one!"

"Planetary Missile entering the planet....! The mantle.... and entering the core..!"

And soon—

BOOOOM!

The Gas Planet trembled and exploded fiercely, the planet quickly crumbling and breaking down from the explosion that was stronger than nuclear attack.

"The Planetary Missile's explosion is successful!"

"Good! Now, check the planet using the sensors to detect every Gauna," Kobayashi quickly ordered.

"Detected an abnormality...!"

"We've detected a Gauna, but there's no other else...! Only a strange Gauna has been spotted!"

On the large main screen, an abnormally large and muscular humanoid Gauna could be seen, its appearance looking extremely fierce and menacing like it was some kind of savage wild beast.

"The Gauna Guardian....?" Jason uttered while looking startled.

The Gauna Guardian now looked entirely different compared to before, looking much more powerful and hideous at the same time.

(Image Here)

Seii quickly noticed Jason's abnormality.

"Jason, is this the Gauna that resembled a Guardian that you mentioned before?"

Jason nodded while sweating slightly, "Indeed, but it looks very different now..."

Kobayashi stared silently at the large main screen, thinking of how they should deal with it.

But suddenly—

Jason's left crimson eyes started to visibly twitch, as it quickly left the sockets, surprising Seii and the two masked assistants.

Mr. Alien didn't cared about them, just looking carefully at the strange Gauna on the screen.

⟨ This...! How is this possible—Nevermind.. ⟩

Mr. Alien then looked at Kobayashi.

⟨ Commander, I suggest to quickly eliminate the Gauna immediately. It's very dangerous if left to grow further. ⟩

"I'm already thinking of how to deal with it by sending a squad," Kobayashi replied quickly, but then confused to see the crimson eyes shaking left and right.

⟨ Don't send out any pilots to deal with it, they will only die a meaningless death and feed the Gauna. You must only send Jason out to eliminate it! Only Jason using the Guardian Knight can defeat that thing! ⟩

Kobayashi was surprised, but could sense that Mr. Alien wasn't lying.

Kobayashi looked at Jason, unsure about his own decision.

"Do you want to fight it alone?"

Jason contemplated for a while before nodding confidently.

He was confident about defeating it while using the Guardian Knight and Mr. Alien's abilities.

In the end, it was more dangerous to let the Gauna Guardian continue growing. It had to be eliminated now. This was also a chance to finally pilot the Guardian Knight while also not having casualties.

"I will not allow that Gauna to destroy Sidonia and cause any casualties."

"Therefore, I will eliminate it by myself."

Jason said confidently and with his eyes very calm, causing Kobayashi to feel relieved, but felt worry about his safety.

She hopes he would come back fine...

Jason immediately boarded the prototype version of the Guardian Knight.

His only mission was to eliminate the runaway of Gauna 488—the Gauna codenamed as [Onizume].

...

Alternative Title: Guardian Knight.

...

Fun Fact: Onizume was Jason's former mecha before the reboot.

For the info dump of the Guardian Knight, I apologize because I don't know how to so it properly.

Take note that Type 19 Guardian Knight, Rokurome, will look vastly different compared to the mass-produced type of Guardian Knight. This will also apply to other talented pilots like Nagate, Hoshijiro, Akai, and Samari who still haven't been introduced. it is better for all humanity to advance, being always alone and selfish won't allow you to survive in this universe. I'm not saying it's bad, but it should just within the bare minimum.

Also, give power stone to make it to the rankings, so more people can see!!

And i've created my P@treon for donation, but its under review :(
