Rebirth: The Universe's Hidden Heiress-Chapter 115: Dropping The Fake Persona (3)

Yuka was about to close the live broadcast and continue searching for her classmates with the opticomputer, when the interface flickered and lit up, clearly showing the situation going on here.

On the outskirts of Misty Land, the Alliance Army had reached the battlefield, desperately stopping the space pirates trying to enter the place.

On the battlefield, many mechas had fallen, most of them the Alliance Army members who were ambushed and killed by space pirates.

In the live broadcast, after Kenji knocked down an enemy mecha and dodged an incoming longsword, he unleashed a powerful wave of psychic power in his mental domain.

The next moment, everyone watching from outside and those fighting in the Alliance Army were shocked to see every enemy mecha Kenji had touched freeze in place as if paused.

Enduring the pain from using too much psychic power, Kenji ordered all Alliance Army members, "Attack!"

The space pirates, realizing they couldn’t move their mechas, stood helplessly as targets for the Alliance Army’s attacks. Some, unwilling to die this way, jumped out of their cockpits to escape but were blocked by the impenetrable attacks of the Alliance Army.

The number of space pirates was rapidly diminished.

Even the audience, who had been dissatisfied with the Alliance Army, couldn’t help but be stunned by Kenji’s astounding psychic power.

For a moment, they were speechless, and only live comments flashed across the screen, all expressing shock through meaningless screams or gibberish.

Yuka, watching the live broadcast and aware of Kenji’s strong psychic power, was still surprised to see him immobilize hundreds of enemy mechas with a single move.

Although the Alliance Army had blocked the space pirates from outside, a significant number of space pirates had already entered the place through an initially breached gap and were hunting the students.

Yuka regained her focus and shifted her attention back to other live streams.

Near the center of the map, Donny, Lory, and a few others were doing well, and they had quickly taken down a few scattered space pirates. They were injured in the chaos but managed to survive.

However, those in the middle and outer parts of the map were not so lucky.

Alex and Ayoi, through coordinated efforts, took down five space pirates attacking them. But as they headed towards the periphery, they ran into more space pirates, plunging into another bitter fight.

The situation for Philip and Shawn on the periphery was the worst. Both of the two had sustained significant damage to their mechas’ arms and legs and couldn’t stand up, with space pirates closing in on them. They would face a miserable end without immediate rescue.

Other students were either fighting space pirates with their injured bodies or running desperately through the valleys.

Seeing her classmates on the brink of defeat and none likely to survive, Yuka sighed deeply. She put the opticomputer back into the cockpit, instructing the butler to keep her updated on everyone’s movements for rescue operations, and then determinedly ran towards Shawn and Philip’s location.

She didn’t care about maintaining her "vase" persona anymore.

As the students, exhausted and wounded, fought for their lives, the audience felt deeply for them. They cheered them on while urging the Alliance Army to hasten their rescue.

A cautious comment appeared in the chat:

[Has anyone seen the Chosen One?]

[No.]

[It’s hard to say, but I think she’s probably in big trouble.]

[Nooooooooooo, not her!]

[Is anyone going to save Shawn? The space pirates are about to kill him.]

[Someone’s coming. Someone’s coming to help them!]

[Am I seeing things? Isn’t that the Chosen One, Number 666?]

[Yes, it’s her!]

[What help can she offer? Wasn’t she said to be weak in actual combat?]

The audience’s reactions were a mix of concern and disbelief as Yuka, the Chosen One, raced to the rescue, challenging the perception of her combat skills.

Amid the frenzied screams of the audience, a spiked hammer tore through the air. With one mighty swing, it knocked away the long knife about to pierce Shawn’s cockpit. The 666 mecha appeared fully on the livestream.

The hammer, attached to a chain, continued forward. As it passed the third mecha, Yuka flicked her wrist, and the hammer swiftly changed direction, coiling around the third mecha’s body. The second mecha, its long knife knocked away, reacted by shooting while charging at Yuka.

Yuka dodged the first mecha’s firepower cannon, closed the distance with a leap, and punched the second mecha’s cockpit.

She grabbed its shoulders and executed a judo throw, sending it and its pilot crashing four meters away against a rock. The impact left the pilot unconscious.

As Yuka bent down, she tightened the chain held in her right hand. The third mecha couldn’t withstand Yuka’s strength and was yanked forward, tripping up the charging second mecha in the process.

Yuka picked up the long knife dropped by the second mecha and charged at the two mechas struggling to stand.

She plunged the knife into one’s cockpit and stomped on the other’s.

Shawn and Philip heard two sickening crunches and watched in awe as 666 mecha smashed the first mecha’s cockpit to pieces with a backward swing of the hammer.

It took just twenty-five seconds—Yuka had taken down three mechas in under half a minute!

The live stream fell into a suffocating silence.

After several seconds, screams and gibberish flooded the chat, overwhelming the broadcast.

Roukujou, shaking, thought to himself, ’There’s no mistake, she’s Pinky. Only Pinky wields a chained hammer like that!’

Soon, people began to type complete sentences, though riddled with typos from excitement.

[Is she really the Chosen One? Did they switch the mecha’s pilot?]

[Ahh, my mecha baby, mama loves ya!]

[She’s Pinky, it has to be Pinky! Pinky!]

[Help, I was just telling her not to go and die, but she’s a hidden master! All her past performances were just a facade!]

[I don’t care, I’m so excited, I’m watching the livestream while popping heart pills!]

Yuka was unaware of the frenzy she had sparked among the viewers. After searching through the wreckage of the three mechas, she only found an opticomputer. Handing it over to the butler for a quick unlock, Yuka then tossed the device to Shawn.

"Open the live stream, choose a path with fewer space pirates to get out," Yuka instructed. "The Alliance Army is almost here, just hold on a little longer."

Shawn and Philip were still reeling from the shock of what they had just witnessed. They nodded subconsciously at Yuka’s words, surprisingly docile.

It was only after Yuka had disappeared into the thick fog, her figure no longer visible, that Philip stuttered, "She, she... that was my crush’s voice, right?"

Shawn, whose entire worldview was being reshaped, replied in a daze, "She’s Yuka... right? The one we called ’Vase?’ The girl that was fragile, weak, and good for nothing but her looks?"

’So, who in the world spread such ridiculous, completely false rumors? She just single-handedly took down three space pirates!’ Shawn thought in astonishment and disbelief.
