【Before Battles】
Knowing that Edward had broken loose from the experimental monster, Copernicus put away his smile to become ferocious.
Copernicus: You scum...dares to defy me...I’ll make you suffer!
Copernicus went to the control panel to press a button; a large amount of electricity was conducted to the black box immediately——
???: AHHH——!
Edward: Stop it!
Painful screams sounded from the box. The flames that covered the stone were therefore put off, resulting in the termination of Edward’s alchemy.
Copernicus: Haha, then you’re unable to use the power of your world again.
【After Battles】
Edward: Humph! Don’t underestimate me. Even without alchemy, I can still beat you smirky bastard!
Edward bent to charge forward; Copernicus then prepared to defend. However——
Copernicus: What!
Eyesight went black. Copernicus was kicked into the stomach hard, lost his balance and fell out of the cart to the railway. Edward picked back up his red cloak on the floor to put it on——
Edward pretended to charge; in fact, he took off the cloak to block Copernicus’s eyesight and seized the chance to kick him off.
After defeating the enemy, Edward finally could spend some time looking around. And that was how he spotted an even more desperate threat.
Edward: “...The sky is cracked...And that’s our world inside the hole!”
Edward: I must stop this train!
With the fact that Copernicus had gone, Edward could trigger his alchemy again. Therefore, he crouched down and put his hands under the car.
One second later, a humongous hand of steel stretched out from the top to stop the train from moving——
Squeak! Sharp noises sounded alongside the force brake of the train. However, the momentum of a high-speed locomotive was not that easy to stop. Seeing the widened gap of the sky, Edward frowned and yelled.
Edward: STOPPPPPP——!
A light shone. Another hand of steel appeared to stop the train together successfully. Nevertheless, the strange hole on the sky was still there. Edward turned around to look at the black box.
Edward: “There should be someone inside...She saved me. And I needa save her.”
Edward had investigated the box thoroughly, but could not find any switch.
Edward: How am I supposed to open it?
???: ...Put your hand on the center of the box…
Edward: Wow——! Lan, Lan Fan! Don’t hang upside down out of nowhere! You scared the hell out of me!
Lan Fan: You’re a chicken.
Lan Fan jumped off from the train top and placed her hand in the center. Amazingly, her hand penetrated through the box.
Next second, the jet-black box gradually became transparent. A pink-haired girl was trapped inside.
Then, Edward and Lan Fan worked together to open it and got her out.
Before long, the girl woke up from a slumber.
Edward: You’re Doya’s friend——Woah!
Cilantro the fragile girl got up and grabbed Edward’s cloak tight with a serious look.
Cilantro: Please, please save Doya and this world!
