The Mk V Kai's composite Beam Gun in its right hand immediately switched to charging mode. Massive Beam Energy gathered at the muzzle before it fired a beam sphere at the Amethyst Saint Machine.
The Amethyst Saint Machine's shield in its left hand was destroyed by the beam sphere, and its remaining six funnel cannons counterattacked.
The Mk V Kai's four Wired Control Cannons, together with the Beam Saber on its back switched to Beam Cannon mode, tangled with the enemy's funnel cannons.
The Mk V Kai switched the weapon in its right hand, drew the Beam Saber stored within its left-hand shield, and sliced off its opponent's right-hand Beam Saber. Just as it was about to press its advantage, its opponent drew another Beam Saber.
Using the Synchronous Action Recognition System and Electromagnetic Muscle Module, the Mk V Kai's pilot unleashed the machine's performance in an instant and swiftly circled behind the opponent.
Before the opponent could react, the Mk V Kai drove its sword through its lower back and out through its abdomen.
Another Mk V Kai, piloted by a Newtype, controlled eight funnel cannons and eliminated its opponent a minute before his colleague did.
After eliminating his opponent, the Newtype did not move to help his colleague, because he had faith in him.
Moreover, the Newtype had been the first to eliminate his opponent, so he merely watched his other colleagues fight.
The EWAC Jesta, Reverse Δ, and Mars Jacket team was the last to eliminate its target.
All four Amethyst Saint Machine pilots were killed. Aside from their cockpits, most of the machines remained intact.
After contacting their superiors, they took away the four Amethyst Saint Machines and handed them over to their nation's scientists for study.
