Chapter 1252

What do you do?
Take it down.
The cannon is building energy. At any moment, it's going to fire again. There's also no telling where it'll turn when it does. It may go for Niki's taunting, but it could also blast Summer and Taiga to the side, or Eva and Amara nearby. Luna is still in the hall behind you as well. As she isn't a fighter herself, that would be the most devastating of all. Delphi flies above and is unlikely to be attacked, but if that happens, that may be too much for even her. You need to act.
You lunge forward into a sprint. With this power flowing through you, it feels as if your running speed has nearly doubled. The gap closes quickly--more than you expected. You reach down and clutch the handle of your sword with two hands. However, as you near the cannon, the golem beings its shield down like a massive wall of metal. You don't stop. Instead, you leap at the challenge and thrust the point of your magic sword straight into the center. Not only does it slide right through, but the sheer might of the magical power explodes from the point of impact. Cracks of pink energy cobweb out from the middle, and after a brief pause, the shield shatters into pieces. You then slide swiftly beneath its legs.
"Ah. I see," Delphi mutters. Seeing the magic at play, she lets Eva back down and flies through the air towards the only ALICE not trapped in some way. One is currently being bound with rope by Summer and Taiga. The other is still stuck on the floor by your Entangle. The third has been suddenly tossed around, but she's still ready to fight, and even has her spear.
Speaking of which, the tip of said spear nearly skewers Delphi out of the air! It hits the wall with a clank and falls back to the ground, while Delphi counterattacks with her magic bands. They just barely grab the ALICE's ankle as she tries to jump away, and she's pulled down hard back to the ground.
As you near the woman, she floats away into the counter of the room. You hit the control panel with your foot as you turn, ignoring her for now, before using it as leverage to pounce right back at the golem's behind. You're like a pink blur as you dash forwards. Then, after throwing yourself through the air, you finally land one final blow. It not only skewers the main sphere of the cannon, but the shock bursts out through the front. The excess energy that was built up, however, detonates. The explosion sends you flying back against the wall. You hit hard, though thanks to Amara's Bless, it's far less bad. You roll down over the control panel and to the ground, just barely on your feet.
You look up to see that the explosion not only shattered the golem to pieces, but each sphere has been cracked. Some are just broken, others are basically ashes. Either way, none are moving.
With a deep breath, you whip your sword to the side and the pink fire fizzles away into smoke. You sheathe the blade, and turn a rather stern expression towards the radiant woman now cowering in the corner.
The flustered Eva tries frantically to button her blouse back up, Niki takes a deep breath, and Amara is on her knees. Summer and Taiga bind the two remaining ALICEs, one with a shorter length of rope they find and another with metal cuffs from a nearby drawer. Delphi lays back over the panels behind you. And lastly, Luna makes her way into the room, peeking in first to make certain it's safe.
"You're good, Luna. Come on in," you say.
"... I apologize that I was not much help."
"Don't say that. You're not a fighter, and you don't need to be. You're just as important as anyone else. Like Eva over there might need your skills if her buttons were lost."
"M-My buttons aren't lost, my hands are just a little shaky!" Eva exclaims.
"But you." Your eyes return to the woman. "Answer Niki's original question or else."
