Mountain

[u/FireOfDoom32]

Kafka looked toward the middle of Lake Kawaguchi, where the shot had come from. Located there was a tiny uninhabited island known as Unoshima. A long rift appeared in the leaden rain clouds that covered the sky, and a single ray of light was illuminating Unoshima. Ashiro was standing there, on that island. The enormous barrel of her cannon reflected that light, glinting in the sun.

Kafka wanted to cry out, “Mina!”

When extended, the line of fire connecting Unoshima and the park went straight to the mountains, so even if Ashiro’s killing shot had missed, there would have been little damage to the town. Even if the chunks of kaiju flesh scattered, the damage to civilian homes would be minimal. After carefully considering everything, she had instructed them to bring the kaiju here.

That’s the kaiju-neutralization pros for you, Kafka thought proudly. Japan Defense Force Third Division!

Ashiro fired a second shot. It blew a hole right through the kaiju’s thick body, and the shell made it all the way to the mountains in the distance. The power of the attack was even greater than what she’d unleashed a little while ago against the ichthyoid kaiju in the lake. Kafka belatedly realized that Ashiro had been holding her full power in reserve
