Monthly Bushiroad Short Novels: Cardfight!! Vanguard

2014 Issue | June: Fight, Our Metalborg!

"The spiral fist that penetrates the evil! Eat this! SPIRAL PUNCH!"

Today, in a corner of "Star Gate", the "Dimensional Robos" fought hard to stop the rampage of monsters.

"Gwooooorgh!"

The critical fist of "Daibattles" defeated the monster, whose scream signified the end of the fight. Watching the fall of the monster's enormous body which produced a thundering sound as it fell to the ground, the evacuated citizens cheered loudly. However---

"Again, they stole the prey!"

There were those who didn't feel happy about this situation and hit the ground with their fists grudgefully. They were "Ur Buster" and "Scissorion". Similar to the Dimensional Robos, they are mechanical lifeforms who fight to protect the peace of Cray. They are the "Metalborgs".

"There, we'd have no reason to transform into these bodies!"

Scissorion hit his fists together in front of his chest. As if to respond to his words, Ur Buster hit the ground again with his fist. Yet, they don't have time to spare for their agonies.

"Yesyes, stop chatting rubbish during work, you two! Mr Ur, please go 30km off to north west, Scissorin, please go 5 km to the south!"

"Don't call me Scissorin!"

The cheerful voice comes from the communication device as if to quench the anger of the pair. Behind the voice one could hear rumbles from the main operators. That's because they have missions accumulated like mountains from rocks.

"If you don't go fast, they will steal the prey again."

"Tttch, I know. Scissorion, I'll rely on you on that task. "

"Just giv'it to me! This time we'll work faster than those hypocrites!"

Knocking each other's fist heartened, the metallic giants left the scene.

Why did they refuse to fight together with the Dimensional Robos and even hate the latter, even though both of them are protectors of peace? It's a story started from the time they didn't call themselves the Metalborgs.

Dimensional Robos. This is the general name for heroes who come from a distant dimension.

"Yunbot, how is the progress of the repairing of Road D152?"

"Not a problem. It'll be normal by tomorrow morning."

However, in addition to Dimensional Robos, there are many other travellers confirmed. They, the "Metalworkers", are among these travellers.

"Okay. What's the next task?"

"Road J21, right? I'll go there quickly."

"Please report to me once you've finished working."

As their appearances implied, they were no battle robots. They are mechanical lifeforms with bodies of heavy machines, responsible for the restoration of roads and repair works of houses.

"I wonder why we have escalated works to do recently."

Because of the common enemy, the Dimensional Robos formed a pact with some of the monsters. The nation should be far from wars when compared to before the pact was forged. Yet, the Metalborgs have increased workloads.

"Hmm, I probably know the reason."

As if responding to the sentence, a sound of explosion reached them from afar. As they turned their heads to the origin of the sound, they saw sparse black smoke.

"It's increasing. These Dimensional Robos."

"They make a street messy whenever they repel the monsters. Luckily no'body' has been harmed by far."
