Imitations
The arena thundered with cheers as the three Silhouettes withdrew from the field.
「Bit underwhelming, huh.」
The grumble from Hyoue earned a wry smile from Bardo. He felt the same.
「Guess that was the rabbit bracket. There better be a beast bracket coming.」
「There is. Those guys, over there.」
「The Barbaroi, huh. We’ll need to start thinking up countermeasures.」
Kou recalled the data he’d received from Prometheus.
Fully mechanized cyborgs—piloting units known as Spurious Silhouettes, or as the Barbaroi called them, Teutates.
「Not much point overthinking it. They don’t even look like Silhouettes. Two whole sizes bigger.」
「So, just big targets.」
「Not exactly. They’re fast, well-armored… and there’s more. Their weapons are similar to Aberration Silhouettes—hell, they also have multiple arms like your Quattro Silhouettes.」
「What…?!」
Kou reeled at Bardo’s words, more than he’d expected to.
「Four arms?! That’s impossible. The Fennel OS can’t operate four—?」
「Four arms?! Come on, that’s not feasible!」
「And yet, they move. Somehow.」
Prometheus’s voice echoed in Kou’s mind.
