(Elaria POV)
Why won't that stupid monster die?!
The most irritating part is that it actually knows how to learn and adapt to all of the things we're throwing at it! Aren't monsters supposed to have set attack patterns that you can exploit?!
Look! Right now it's not even trying to attack or defend itself and simply avoiding all of our attacks!! Which monster does that?! That's so unfair!!
Even when I had my ships start firing off their energy weapons, it only worked for a while before it started avoiding them even before they were fired! This little bastard!!
Ugh! Just watching my ships miss their shots is so painful… If only I could direct those weapons and fire them myself, I'm sure I could hit that little freak…
Wait… That's it!
I rushed out of the room and looked for the one person who could help me.
"Onii-samaaaaaaa!!"
"Oh? What's wrong, Elaria?"
Ahaaaaan~~ I found the bartender version of Onii-sama in the courtyard and he's still wearing that really wonderful outfit!
I don't think anyone would mind if I just take Onii-sama back to his room and just… Oops, better not get distracted here.
"Onii-sama! I left something back out in space! Could you teleport me to one of my ships that's totally not doing anything suspicious that you shouldn't know about right now?"
"Of… Course? Just think about where you need to go and I'll teleport you there."
As expected of the current Onii-sama! He wouldn't even question me and just help me with what I need!
"You're the best, Onii-sama! I love you!!"
"Ahaha~ Here you go."
With just those words, I found myself on the deck of the flagship of the Onii-sama Space Navy.
The people on board were surprised to see me literally appear out of thin air but I was quick to take charge of the situation.
"Cease fire and let me see the targeting map right now!"
As expected of the people I trained, they responded to my orders perfectly and the ships within the fleet stopped firing at my command. They even had my cloak and peak cap ready for me to wear too!
What How? How else am I supposed to be dressed when commanding a fleet of ships?! This is the standard!
Oh, just saying, I also have an Admiral uniform for Onii-sama made~
The Admiral I placed in charge also escorted me to the war table that showed me a three dimensional grid of the battlezone where the monster was.
"How long more before the Stars of Death are in position?!"
"Ten… Ten more minutes!"
"How much time before that thing breaks through our lines?!"
"Five minutes!"
"Tch… Give me a link to all the main weapon systems to this map! I will direct each individual fire and you will all fire exactly on my command!!"
There was a chorus of affirmatives and I set myself to start directing every single gun that was in the fleet. My hands flew across the interface, marking out every target as I took note of the tentacled bastard getting closer and closer towards us.
After inputting the final command, I slammed my palm on the table, "All ships, fire at designated targets at the designated time!"
With less than a second after those words left my lips, the ships of the fleet fired their weapons together in perfect time according to my relayed orders.
I took out the tablet I had brought along with me and watched as the stupid tentacled batard continued to avoid my sisters' attacks to rush towards us.
The first energy beam shot towards it was avoided as it shifted itself to the side, something I was already expecting.
The second beam was also avoided as the damnable thing rolled further to dodge it, only to have the third beam graze its side.
So surprised it was by that small damage that the fourth beam hit it directly in its chest, blasting the tentacled freak rolling back and having part of its body slashed apart by sister Eris.
It was in the middle of reforming itself when a kinetic shell hit it in the centre again, blasting it even further back and allowing sister Manami to burn even more of its body away.
The next beam then hit a corner of its body, causing it to start spinning wildly within the vacuum of space.
Sister Lian Li was already prepared with a rift that had sucked the first bastard in the first place but before this one could reach it, it stopped spinning suddenly and shifted its gaze towards the rift, closing it up like it was never there.
Not surprising considering it had already recognised sister Lian Li as the largest threat out of all of us so there were several eyes that were constantly trained on her.
But because all of its attention was fixated on closing up that rift, the next few kinetic shells and energy beams scored direct hits on its body, sending the entire monster flying even further.
Hmph! That's what you get for forgoing defence in trying to reach your destination faster! Bet you thought we could no longer hit you anymore huh?! I'll let you know that predicting your movements is much easier than playing chess with Onii-sama! I can read you like an open book!
It tried to recover the distance it lost and the next few shots barely grazed it as it weaved through the kinetic shells and energy beams that were fired from my ships next.
Too bad I had already predicted this and the stupid beast got itself caught mid evasion as several energy blasts hit it while it was trying to avoid another attack.
Without giving it a chance to recover, dozens of kinetic shells exploded in its face and blasted it far away, far enough that my sisters had to rush back to continue their attack on the damned beast.
The monster tried to regain its second wind but each and every one of its moves had been predicted by me and countered perfectly.
Simply by constantly giving it the idea that they were just lucky shots, it would be forced back before it started advancing again. Then another hit followed by several others would force it back again, this time just a little further than the first time it was hit.
Just like that, it was given the illusion that it was making progress when in reality it was not and in fact, it was losing ground too.
That was when the best news I've had all day came.
"Supreme Admiral! All three Stars of Death are in position and ready to fire on command!"
Perfect! Fire at my command!!!
