Just as Horza thought that the Culture would be content with that, the screen lit up once more. Every one of those flat cards, and the Hub, of the exploded Orbital blazed once with an icy, sparkling brilliance as though a million tiny white stars were shining through each shattered piece. The light faded, and those four hundred expanses of flat worlds with their center Hub were gone, replaced by a grid of diced shapes, each exploding away from the others as well as from the rest of the disintegrating Orbital.
Those pieces flashed, too, bursting slowly with a billion pinpricks of light which, when they faded, left debris almost too small to make out.
Vavatch was now a swollen and spiraled disc of flashing, glittering splinters, expanding very slowly against the distant stars like a ring of bright dust. The glinting, sparkling center made it look like some huge, lidless and unblinking eye.
The screen flashed one final time. No single points of light could be made out this time. It was as though the whole now vague but bloated image of the shattered circular world glowed with some internal heat, making a torus-shaped cloud out of it, a halo of white light with a fading iris at its center. Then the show was over, and only the sun lit up the slowly blooming nimbus of the annihilated world.
At this point, if I was a Guild Godship, I would just go home. A single woman has just taken out three entire Godships by herself and she’s not even carrying a visible weapon. I dont care what the guilds do to me, it cant be worse that having “whoever that woman is” just unmaking my entire being with a rock in her forehead.
I loved this comic for many reasons, but I never thought including a cross section of a ship would be one of them

This comic has had quite a couple of absolute peak peages but this one is absolutely up there.
The Foot of Maybe
I can do that but I don’t wanna
There’s a guy on sub-level 5D on the can and he couldn’t choose a worse time to do so
or the best, depending on how he reacts

No Layla Brimstone this strip, sad.
Nothing? Are you certain? Not even… high interest debt?
There is an extremely high chance that anyone who knows anything about my debt will be dead in a few minutes, so… Yeah I’m sure
Is it an orbital dropkick if it starts from the ground?
How about an orbital rising kick?
SEMARU, SHOCKER
JIGOKU NO GUNDAN
WARERA WO NERAU KUROI KAGE
SEKAI NO HEIWA WO MAMORU TAME
GO, GO, LET’S GO! KAGAYAKU MACHINE
RIDER… JUMP!
RIDER… KICK!
KAMEN RIDER, KAMEN RIDER
RIDER, RIDER
Mouth of kala being her theme when she does insane shit is my favorite part of this
Thats pretty awesome, but it still seems like we are looking at Kill 6 Thousand Demons.
See, Rogue, this is how that kick is done.
THAT STILL ONLY COUNTS AS ONE!
….not that we’re keeping count or anything….
Royalty
Did you hear something? I’m sure I heard something…
Metal! No snappy title= needed!
Whose ship was that? Incubus?
The kick was easy, the real technique was keeping the jacket from coming off
nbd just inazuma kicking a battleship in half
The Maybe Kick
If the ships are made of buoyant god bone, will each half just sort of drift aimlessly, cluttering up the sky and running into other ships?
RIDER KIIIIIICK
It continues to be so fucking peak for the rest of the comic.
Hmph. It is always a pleasure to behold fellow royalty executing such supreme techniques with as much grace and efficiency.
