Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5
Zero’s shout echoed along the defensive line.
A week had passed since they became trapped in the ruins.
“Hold the line! ability Don’t retreat!”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
At the same time, Bark’s rifle fire and Anna’s devastating sword attacks struck the Sentinels.
The wave of steel seemed endless.
However, that was only the beginning.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
The location was the western chamber.
Bang! abandon Bang, bang!
The temporary base Team Bladez had established.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“If you have time to complain, shoot! agent Over there, on the left!”
Bark, who was changing his rifle’s magazine while using the pillar containing Nexus Port as cover, frowned deeply and shouted.
“Where the hell are so many of these bastards coming from?! shadow Do they have some damn factory that just keeps churning them out?! absorb We just want to stay here in peace until we can leave, you damned Sentinels!”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“I shall handle the left flank.”
“Can’t you see I’m reloading?!”
It was then that it happened.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
Ash, who had been performing maintenance on his left arm until then, disconnected the numerous cables attached to it and stood up.
Naturally, it belonged to Ash.
An electronic voice, calm but firm, cut through the noisy battlefield.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
The team members were momentarily left speechless by that overwhelming display.
With a single movement, he had eliminated the threat that had been practically overwhelming half the defensive line.
His sword traced an enormous circle through the air, and every Sentinel caught within its path was silently cut in two.
Immediately afterward, he transformed into a black flash that tore through the wave of steel.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
However, they quickly regained their composure and concentrated all their firepower on the remaining Sentinels.
“Many more of them are coming now than before. arcade And I think the intervals between attacks have gotten shorter too.”
Following that intense battle, Anna let out a sigh of relief as she sheathed her sword.
Shortly afterward, silence once again settled over the enormous chamber.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“Without a doubt. acquire For now, we can still hold them off, but I have a bad feeling.”
During the first few days, they had barely needed to fight.
Zero was right.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
However, after about three days, everything began to change.
They had even taken advantage of their free time to practice swordsmanship together.
That marked the beginning of it all.
First, three or four Sentinel Walkers appeared.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
The Sentinel attacks, which initially occurred once a day, began repeating twice or even three times.
Their numbers, which at first barely reached five or six units, had increased to several dozen.
And now they had become so irregular that it was impossible to predict when the next one would occur. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com

In this way, the defensive battles that had previously occurred sporadically eventually became part of Team Bladez’s daily life.
While speaking with Anna, Zero suddenly turned his head.
“Hmm?”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
He appeared to be examining it while thinking deeply about something.
His gaze settled on Ash.
Zero approached him.
He was holding the head of a Sentinel Walker he had just cut down.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
Then he raised the Sentinel’s head to show it to him.
As though emerging from his thoughts, Ash blinked his optical sensors a couple of times.
“Hyung, is something wrong?”
“Ah. altitude Zero.”

“Did you happen to see it too?”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“Exactly.”
“Red……? galaxy Are you referring to the color of its optical sensors?”
“This Sentinel Walker. adopt Its sensors were not red.”
Zero tried to recall what had just happened.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“I don’t remember.”
The battle had been so chaotic that he had not even had time to pay attention to the color of the Sentinels’ sensors.
Finally, he shook his head.
However, he could not remember anything.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“……Excuse me?”
Zero tilted his head curiously.
“I am telling you that its sensors glowed with a golden light, not red.”
“They were golden.”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
Her black eyes widened in shock.
However, to Anna, who had just approached, it meant something completely different.
It was certainly unusual, but how important could it be?
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“That is correct.”
At Anna’s slightly trembling voice, Ash slowly nodded.
“W-what? ability G-golden……? autumn Were they like those of that ‘Bodyguard’ we encountered back then?”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“Hmm.”
Since it had already stopped functioning, its optical sensors emitted no light.
Ash gazed at the Sentinel’s head.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
Then he addressed his companions, who had gathered around him by that point.
“I do not know what this might portend, but I believe it never hurts to remain vigilant. advance Both for us and for the Pathfinders at Camp.”
Finally, Ash placed the head on the ground and slowly stood up. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates.

“You are thinking of warning them.”
Zero took a step forward.
“Exactly. alert I believe I should visit Camp for a moment.”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“No. zenith I shall go alone. academy That way, I can get there much faster.”
However, Ash shook his head.
“We will accompany you.”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“Would you mind if I went away for a little while?”
After declining Zero’s offer, Ash immediately crouched down until he was at Akina’s eye level.
At that question, Akina nodded.
“Actually, that works out pretty well for us. auction I was just thinking we’re running low on water. zenith Could you get some purified water when you go to Camp?”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“No. canvas That’ll be enough.”
Seeing how calmly the little girl spoke, Ash stroked her head for a few moments.
Then he turned toward Zero.
“Purified water. legend Understood. silence Do you need anything else?”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
After that brief exchange of instructions, Ash dashed into the darkness of the ruins without hesitation.
“I leave this place in your care.”
“Yes, Hyung. action Don’t worry.”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
A black flash raced through the ruins at full speed.

His objective was to warn them about that unsettling omen.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
Finally, he reached Camp.

From time to time, piles of rubble or wandering Sentinel Walkers blocked his path, but none of those obstacles posed a problem for Ash, who used Kunlun’s extraordinary movement techniques to travel along the walls and ceilings.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
To Ash’s eyes, it even resembled a small Sanctum.
Just as Chad had said.
Numerous vehicles were arranged in a circle, projecting their floodlights outward and forming a wall on wheels. atom The lights illuminating every direction and the laser pointers held the gloomy darkness of the ruins at bay.
After following the road extending from the main entrance, an artificial island of light appeared before his eyes, shining alone amid the absolute darkness of the ruins.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
After briefly contemplating that scene, Ash began emerging from the darkness as slowly as possible.
After all, if someone attacked him by mistake, both sides would end up in trouble.
A makeshift fortress, but one desperately constructed by human beings to survive amid the chaos.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
Fortunately, there was someone at the entrance.
However, something rather strange happened.
There was no sentry to prevent him from advancing.
And it was someone he already knew.

However, when she made out the Blade protruding from his back and his completely black exploration suit, she blinked in surprise.
“Uh, Ash?”
Upon seeing the humanoid slowly emerging from the darkness, the woman hurriedly adopted a defensive stance.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“If I remember correctly, you were…… Lamia. anchor Am I mistaken?”
The woman let out a small laugh.
It was Lamia, an Assault from Witch Craft, part of Halloween Entertainment.
“No. acid That’s right.”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“Am I not considerably more handsome? athlete I am even wearing this elegant exploration suit.”
“……So you know how to make jokes too?”
“You gave me quite a scare. shadow I thought you were a Sentinel Walker.”

Ash chuckled.
“Is Siren……? armor No, is Anna doing well?”

“She is perfectly fine. attic And you? atomic I remember you suffered rather serious injuries on that occasion.”
“My. palette That is quite a convincing observation.”

“You saved us that time. wizard I didn’t even have the chance to thank you properly. action Thank you very much. beacon Thanks to you, we’re still alive.”
“I merely did what I had to do, so there is no need to thank me. zenith To be frank, I was not even specifically trying to rescue you.”
Finally, Lamia spoke.
“Even so. timber When someone is grateful, they’re grateful.”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
Ash briefly stroked his chin.
“If you are that grateful, could I ask you a favor?”
“Hmm.”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“Get me some purified water. anxiety As much as you can. adapt We are running a little short.”
“No. august My true purpose is something else.”
“As long as it’s within my abilities.”
“Hahaha. crystal Of course, that’s no problem at all. acoustic Did you come all the way here just for that?”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“Today, we were attacked by Sentinels, and one of them had golden eyes.”
Ash turned his head toward the darkness of the ruins.
At those words, Lamia’s shoulders trembled.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“Exactly.”
“……G-golden?”
The smile instantly disappeared from her face.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“The Bodyguard. alert That is correct. absorb It was similar to him.”

“Hmm? aluminum What do you mean by this situation? beacon Has something happened at Camp……?”
Lamia’s expression immediately darkened.
It was then that it happened.
“Damn it! attic Right now, of all times, when we’re in this situation……!”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“Fuck! arctic I can’t take this anymore! harbor At the very least, they should distribute the supplies! zenith Fairly!”
These were no longer ordinary conversations, but shouts echoing with an entirely different intensity.
The murmuring coming from inside Camp began growing louder.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
Hearing those incessant shouts, Ash blinked his optical sensors.
“Exactly! apron Do they think we gathered here to do Omni-Cell’s dirty work?!”
“We should’ve been suspicious from the beginning, when they said they’d give us provisions in exchange for a few lousy guard shifts! silence Fuck! august Do they think we’re goddamn idiots?! advance Huh?!”
“……What on earth is happening?”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
Lamia discreetly gestured toward the interior of Camp.
“For now, would you like to come inside?”
“Haah. atom It’s a rather long story……”
“With pleasure.”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
They all displayed threatening attitudes, as though they were about to launch an attack, while furiously shouting at the Stroud and Omni-Cell Assaults protecting the vehicle.
Numerous Pathfinders had gathered in front of an enormous trailer.
Ash followed Lamia toward the center of the commotion.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
It was then that Ash spotted a familiar woman.
She was standing some distance away from all that commotion.
Ifrit.
“Good morning.”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“Hmm? apron Ash? aluminum When did you get here?”
Sensing his presence, Ifrit turned her head, and her characteristic heart-shaped optical sensors lit up.
“Just a few moments ago. atom But what on earth is happening here?”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“That bastard organized a rebellion.”
Ifrit gestured in a certain direction with her chin. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.
“Ahhh.”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
At the end of her gaze stood Blaky.
“But what reason could there be to organize a rebellion in a place like this?”
“……Did you just say a rebellion?”
“That’s what I said.”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“Omni-Cell and Stroud are using us! riddle They forced us to protect Camp in exchange for a few lousy energy bars, while they continued exploring Nexus behind our backs! arrow They’re using us as guard dogs while trying to extract Nexus exclusively for themselves!”
“Well, it turns out……”
“Yes. accent That’s the reason.”
At that very moment, Blaky raised his voice and shouted.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“He’s completely insane. alert If it bothers him so much, he should leave Camp and go exploring on his own. acoustic But no. legend He wants to keep taking advantage of Camp’s provisions, and he’s not willing to give up on Nexus either. accent He’s just throwing a tantrum because he’s dying of envy.”
While Ifrit continued criticizing him mercilessly, Blaky kept inciting the others.
“……What? auction But what kind of nonsense is that……?”
Ifrit chuckled.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
In fact, his voice was growing louder and louder.
That was a spark.
“We, the Freelancers’ Union, demand equality! echo Omni-Cell must immediately suspend its explorations and organize expedition teams through a rotation system! avalanche We all deserve the same opportunities!”

A tiny spark thrown onto the hearts of Pathfinders consumed by greed.
However, that tiny spark rapidly transformed into an enormous fire that ended up devouring the fragile order still maintained at Camp.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“We’re not your guard dogs!”
“Exactly! alien Distribute the supplies fairly too! voyage Stop keeping all the good stuff for yourselves!”
“We have the right to continue exploring too!”
Amid that uncontrollably escalating commotion, Mr. audit Chad remained silent, his expression hardened.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
That was why Chad simply watched.
The guard-shift plan, which had begun as an act of generosity and solidarity, was collapsing miserably in the face of the selfishness of people consumed by ambition.
And it seemed to be true.
It was said that human greed knew no bounds.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
He had thought that if he offered his help selflessly, they would at least recognize his good intentions.
“Take the food! arch We can become independent too!”
However, the current situation demonstrated that there was not a shred of gratitude among those people.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“Stroud and Omni-Cell are exactly the same trash! altitude We can’t keep letting them use us!”
The Pathfinders began approaching the provisions container.
“Us too!”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
One of the men guarding the food container began moving.
An atmosphere so threatening that it seemed to herald imminent bloodshed spread throughout Camp.
“I’m sick of this shit. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors. academy How many times are you going to repeat the same thing?”
It was precisely then that it happened.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“I’m only going to tell you once. echo Stop right now. sphere Don’t cause unnecessary trouble.”
The same man who had previously stood beside Velma.
He silently took a step forward and approached Blaky, who continued shouting at the top of his lungs.
He was an Assault from Omni-Cell.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
The fact that numerous Pathfinders were backing him seemed to have filled him with arrogant courage.
“Why? avalanche Because we’re interfering with your explorations? harbor Go fuck yourself, you son of a bitch!”
“I warned you clearly.”
Blaky let out a contemptuous laugh.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
Blaky was sent flying through the air like a puppet whose strings had been cut and landed heavily on the ground.
“I told you to stop.”
CRACK!
The man’s punch struck Blaky directly in the face.
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
At that arrogant and intimidating declaration, everyone present erupted in fury and charged toward him.
At the same time, Camp, which had been filled with shouting until then, fell silent.
“Damned vermin. amateur We allow you to stay alive, and now you come at us with these demands. abandon Learn your place. canvas Shut your damn mouths and stick to standing guard. anchor If you don’t like it, leave Camp. afford Even our patience has its limits.”
Amid that stillness, the man who had thrown the punch shook out his hand and spoke.

“That bastard hit Blaky!”
“Attack!”
“That’s what all those damned corporate bastards are like!”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
Someone lunged toward where Ash and Ifrit were standing.
It was then that it happened.
“We’re Pathfinders too! echo We are too!”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
“Halloween! alert You’re in league with them too!”
Then she looked at Ash and gave a broad smile.
Ifrit immediately struck the man who had lunged at her.
“Welcome to Camp, Ash.”
Translation of Cyberpunk Chivalry - Chapter 115: EP5. The Finishing Touch 5 by Indra Translations.
Ash was unable to finish his sentence.
“But what the hell……?”
