Project 3A: Let's Give Them Genji Armor

Waha. Am I invincible now?

This helmet's so hard.

I could take on anything now.

Good, good. You all look stunning.

But, I have to ask...

Why aren't you wearing the armor too, Master? I was looking forward to heading out to battle in matching outfits!

？！

Now I am Ushi-woe-is-maru...

But the pity party can come later. Now, it is time for battle!

It's been too long since I've led subordinates into a battlefield. I can't wait to get in there and start taking heads!

Idiot student! That would ruin this entire plan!

Mentor!?

The whole point of this strategy is to let the Con deal the finishing blows, remember?

This is exactly why Benkei didn't want you to come here. Nor did I!

I swear, every time there's even a hint of conflict, it's nonstop decapitation talk with you...

Uhh, wh-what are you doing here, Mentor?

Frankly, I'm here as your chaperone.

I've never met anyone who struggles with basic instructions like "leave them with a shred of hope" as much as you.

A shred, huh? So instead of a clean cut, just leave their heads dangling by a shred of skin the Con can easily cut through to finish the job!

... ...

Huh? What is it, Mentor? Is that not what you meant?

No, you moron! Did you not hear a word I just said!?

So you two are mentor and student, huh? That's so nice. And you obviously get along very well.

Not as well as we do, though.

How is this getting along? Hmph.

...All right, let's see what we've got here.

Huh?

This is what I've been asked to do. There's a reason I'm such a great mentor, you know!

Now then...

...Hmm!?

What in the world are these creatures?

Are you sure they're alive? Could it be they're... Hm? Hmm?

I wonder... Hmm... They almost remind me of my favorite sweet dumplings...

Thanks.

Our goal here is actually to make sure they DON'T get eaten, though.

Of course. Forgive me.

Okay, let's forget about figuring out what they are then, at least for now. Hmm, I guess I can lend my assistance...

Are you ready, Shana-oh? I'm going to help out a little, too!

Nnn, that's going to put a crimp in my style...

But all right, if we're going to do this, let's do it! Also, I come with a message from Lady Raikou!

Now that you are wearing Genji armor, you are all essentially Genji warriors.

Be sure to fight accordingly, with honor and valor.

And on that note, allow me to say this in her place:

Genji, advance!

Genji, advance!
