There was only one logical conclusion that she could come up with, especially since the ash they found was arranged in a pattern that suggested that a previous battle happened here not long ago. Other extradimensional beings must have fought and defeated these monsters here. However, this conjecture didn't answer two important questions: Who did this and where are the people that should inhabit this area? Nanoha didn't have much time to think about it before more creatures crept on her, breaking through the walls of nearby buildings. A couple Smash Impacts (i.e.: using Raising Heart as a mana fueled club) later and Nanoha cleared the area around her once more. Right in time for Tenshi to deliver their first solid clue on this investigation. "Is that what we are supposed to look for? If that's the case, leave it to me," Nanoha said as she took high to skies, stopping once she had a clear sight of the whole operation area. "Raising Heart, please, calculate the target's positions based on the last Area Search," she said as a magic circle appeared below her feet. "Targets acquired, Master." "Thank you, Raising Heart." "Here we go, Accel Shooter: Vanishing Shift..." Nanoha said as several magical bullets appeared in the air around her. Each of them locked on the location of the electronic devices that were emitting the same signals as the mobile phone that Tenshi brought earlier. "Shoot!" she called, unleashing the barrage of homing attacks. Hopefully, this would end this engagement in one fell swoop.
