S-Rank Character "Dawn Knight Moon Dream" Preview
After overcoming numerous hardships, the brave girl finally defeated the evil demon king and obtained... from his hands.
"Grandpa! You've told this story countless times!"
"Would you like to hear a new story today, my dear little Theresa?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
(Imagine the tone and scene of Otto's lecture here.)
The camera then focuses on the Lord Bishop telling a story to the still-grown (?) Theresa. He smiles slightly, and as he narrates, the camera shifts to a young girl bathed in light.
Due to an unexpected coincidence, the ill-fated girl gains new powers amidst the pursuit of pleasure by the Bishop of Schicksal and the world's richest man.
(Please imagine a scene from a previous chapter: Before the Schicksal Tour group left, Otto tricked Luming into taking out the armor bracelet, and amidst everyone's puzzled looks, he activated his first transformation.)
(The scene then shifts to a presentation of Magical Girl Luming; imagine the Lord Bishop's tone as he explains.)
Dawn Knight: Moon Dream is an S-Rank Valkyrie armor with both mechanical and supernatural attributes. It represents a brand-new attempt by Schicksal to develop the God-Slaying Armor series, featuring a completely different design style from previous armors and also endowing it with the ability to cope with various emergencies.
Once the captain has unlocked the initial character [Normal Lucky], they can directly unlock this armor by unlocking the newly added branch evolution path, but it will still require spending a certain amount of character fragments.
In addition, participating in the limited-time event [Five-Dimensional Memories] will grant you generous rewards such as Crystals, Ancient Will, Schicksal / Anti-Entropy Imaginary Core, and Time Passes. Furthermore, as the event's story progresses, you will also receive the limited-edition event costume "After Minus" for the Dawn Knight: Luming Battle Damaged Edition, and the Five-Dimensional Medium collaboration costume "Magical Girl Luming: Zero".
(Imagine the player controlling the Magical Girl Luming to beat up the workaholic monster.)
"Eat my Great Fireball! ♪(^∇^*)"
"It's so tingly and numb! (*^-^*)"
"Face the storm!...(* ̄0 ̄)ノ"
"So refreshing and exhilarating! ~( ̄0 ̄)/"
"This incantation is too long and too embarrassing, I don't want to recite it!!! →)╥╥)"
In its first form, the armor's attribute is superpower, and its appearance leans towards the traditional Magical Girl style. It can freely switch between four attack methods: ice, fire, wind, and lightning by clicking the special attack button once. At the same time, it can unleash different styles of magic by clicking the normal attack button, dodge button, and special attack button in different orders and times, experiencing a grand visual feast.
By the way, this armor does not have a conventional Time Fracture device, so it cannot directly trigger evasion skills in combat. Instead, it has a powerful protective device. When facing enemy attacks, the current shield value will be deducted first. Successfully evading enemy attacks will restore the shield value and allow for a counterattack.
"Hehe, you can't hit me! o(*≧▽≦)ツ"
It's worth mentioning that the gem decorations on the Magical Girl Lady's body will change color according to the remaining SP value. When the SP value is below 50, it will be a constantly flashing red, when it is between 50 and 100, it will be a stable yellow, and when it is above 100, it will be a deep blue.
"Oh no! My light is red! o(≧口≦)o"
"Phew, I think I have enough energy left... ( ̄△ ̄;)"
"Hmph, full of energy, I can do whatever I want~"
Be careful, releasing some powerful spells will rapidly deplete Magical Girl Luming's magic power, so please pay attention to your remaining SP during battle.
If you accumulate enough magic to perform a certain number of spells and your SP value is close to full, you can unlock the true form of the God-Slaying Armor Dawn Knight: Moon Dream by holding down the ultimate attack button.
"Grant me the Holy Armor! (*^▽^*)"
(Imagine Luming Lady shouting, stretching her body, and then several pieces of armor appearing from the void and automatically donning onto her.)
Upon entering the second form, Dawn Knight Luming's stats will be greatly enhanced, and her attack style will shift from classical magic to modern firearms and sword fighting. With her powerful combat style and dazzling weapon usage, she will defeat enemies without them even realizing it.
"Come on, it's performance time! ヾ(´・ω・`)ノ"
"Now! The ultimate move— Dragon Ascension Sword! ╰(*°▽°*)╯"
"Want to bet how many bullets I have left in my gun?"
Have you ever seen a humanoid Gundam? (*^-^*)
"Don't stop, Barbatos... Sorry, wrong set Σ( ° △ °|||)!"
When the ultimate dodge is triggered in this form, the acceleration devices in various parts of the armor will increase the speed to the extreme in that instant, allowing the user's speed to far surpass everything around them, achieving an effect close to "time stop".
"THE WORLD! Muda Muda Muda! O(≧口≦)O"
Please note that once you enter the second form, the armor's energy will be consumed rapidly. Therefore, please make the most of the opportunity to enter the second form. If the energy is exhausted, you will directly revert to the first form and remain in red light mode for a long time, unable to recover SP by attacking enemies.
The Dawn Knight: Moon Dream doesn't have a precise finishing move; how much of its power can be unleashed depends entirely on the user's skill. Fortunately, the person who owns it is my great-granddaughter, whom I am very proud of.
My dearest great-granddaughter, you encountered fragments of Saintess from five hundred years ago, shattered the lightning that sought to conquer the world, seized divine power over life and death, controlled the winds that yearned for freedom, separated from the blood-drinking alien beings, engaged in fierce battles with the ancient beasts your mother fought a thousand years ago, and ventured alone into the Quantum Sea to rescue your lost sister for your companions. And now...
More and more friends are gathering around you, and you are constantly gaining more and more power. All of this makes you feel happy, but is this really a good thing?
Too much power will eventually lead to disaster. As the gap between you and those around you widens, when you once again demonstrate the strength to crush everything, will their eyes reveal reassurance for their companions or fear of the monster?
When the ideals that have sustained you through this struggle crumble, will you pick yourself up and be reborn, or... go mad?
Great-grandfather here, I'm really looking forward to it!
Author's Note—
Sorry, the author went home for the weekend, so there will be no update for the main story.
This is my first time trying this type of character teaser, similar to an information preview, releasing teasers of enhanced forms and the appearance of new characters. I personally find it quite interesting.
This also includes some previews of future plot developments. Readers are encouraged to make their own speculations and share their opinions about the new armor in the comments section.
Oh, and there won't be just the armored version of Sachi later on!
