Chapter 4: Gilver Vergil

Sparda Company was located 20 minutes away from I.S Academy by a car. It was a fortress-like 50 feet factory with heavily trained armed guards wandering around like guarding a POW camp waiting to be freed by their enemy. There, thousands of state-in-the-art weapons, armors, vehicles, and medicines were innovating themselves by the hands of brilliant scientists all over the world whom were carefully handpicked by the owner of company himself. Creations from this company were sold all over the world. However, just and only in Japan, it got it's 'special service' fro it's permit to open this company in this country. The 'special service' would be, of course, I.S development. A joint venture development together straight with I.S Academy directly by the founder of Sparda's company also the head of I.S security, Gilver Vergil had done a lot of remarkable remarks for both of the academy and I.S itself.

Inside a large private room located on the top floor with a fiery adjacent the entrance, Gilver was staring on his half-filled vodka. He had his head pressed on wrist that he rested on a cushion leather sofa imported from USA which faced the window. It's been a week he didn't get a proper sleep since his first independent project of making a personal I.S. And when it meant by 'independent', he meant it. Though it's against Alaska Treaty and if he's got busted, the I.S Academy'd cover him up as he's one of them now remembering his position as the head of R&D in the Academy itself. This big project of his was kept confidential. Nobody knew nor heard any word of this, including Chifuyu. This I.S he made, was different from any I.S before. The concept was almost like the 5th generation I.S in which they carried a fold-out armor inside but with another 'additions'.

The project was big and had sapped himself. The circle below his eyes became darker when it combined with the trouble given by Phantom Task. That group of terrorist had already crossed path with I.S Academy for a long time like a cat and a dog before he enrolled into one of the side. And he didn't think that the former famous first gen. I.S champion and the guardian of I.S Academy, Chifuyu Orimura could play longer in holding their position. Phantom Task became more and more aggressive every time commencing an attack. He didn't want to see that I.S Academy collapsed together with innocents inside it. Soon, very soon they needed to switch their position from defence to offence, the trick'd be put into by the I.S of his.

Perhaps, by doing this, he could atone his sins and granted forgiveness.

From Kat and him.

The project he made was completed today. At last, he had contributed something big to change the tide of battle. Until he had seen what does this creation of his capable of in the field, then he could count himself succeed. The prototype was ready for a trial-run. Test date's tomorrow, 10 A.M at I.S Academy. 10 subjects, all of them were cadet rep. Whom represented their respective nationality, or in other words: Elites.

As it's name suggested, they were I.S pilots with skills above the normals and rivalled Chifuyu's defence squads and got sponsored with a personal I.S. Personally, he didn't give a shit about elites or not to pilot his I.S. If he had enough time, he'd throw a test-party for all I.S pilot-or even it's necessary, he'd pick the civilians for the test too to see who'd suit his taste better.

Ah yes, besides strenght and skills, Gilver had his own standard psychological requirements to use his creation.

Again, too bad he didn't have enough time to do that part.

Worse is, most of the list were contained of spoiled brats whom he eagered to give good slaps in their butt just like punishing a little child. Although Gilver got Chifuyu dealt with them already, fixing a bad habit surely took a long time. He sighed remembering morality judgment is a must for him. He couldn't tell how he did this, but Gilver was born with a gift to see evil inside humans. Of course, humans couldn't get away with it as it was already their nature. For some people, they had this worse... 'nature'. He didn't want his creations-his arts of eradicating livings used by hands of them. To prevent this happening, Gilver always created 'shield'-like weapons and threw the 'sword' away. However, the situation he's gotten into didn't allow him to play the defence anymore. To finish what's started, he had to do exactly how his opponent against him. It's just like an old Chinese saying:

If you want to catch a tiger, you must enter it's den first.

Was it the gist of him? He had that catchphrase this morning when watching a stock exchange. He hardly saw any correspondence remembering the phrase. Chinese idioms were rich in meaning that came directly from wises. Some of them were easy to understand just by hearing it once while some of them needed age of searching the meaning hidden in the universe. The meaning was not for him to understand now. Maybe.

Not much known about Gilver Vergil. Nationality, origin, parents? Don't expect anything from him recalling his status as an orphan. However, there was a horrible secret lied behind his high-calm attitude. Something he kept secretful-so secret as though it could kill both the curiosity and the cat when they uncovered it out from him. Maintaining formal relations, only talk when necessary, and walked away from the scene whenever if the topic's off from business had successfully kept the people off from his boundaries. But no matter how cold his attitude was, his reaction drew curious from other to dig up. Some even put gossips on him once. Scandals. And they were really nasty that he had to snap back to the source to clean up their mess in which it really irritated him as a lot of time uselessly wasted in the court instead of developing a new defence system for the Academy as he was a man of time.

He stood up from his seat reaching for a tidy stack of hard files on work desk. Sorting it through until he found a report copied for Chifuyu for investigation purpose. Opening page by page, the report he made was about yesterday's man whom triggered an I.S active. This case freaked all staffs in I.S Academy and had already reached the government. Just another matter of time until the news hit the students before going global in a short time.

Subject got 3 kinds of chromosomes inside DNA.

Giver's eyes locked on that sentence. Humans only got X and Y. But this one? He eyed on another sentence. That previous sentence energized hum up although the alcohol effect still remained.

Based on the I.S DNA test taken in XX-XX-20XX XX:XX:XX, I.S no.137 type Uchigane gave a very good response of subject's Y chromosome in which, the most dominant chromosome the subject has.

Fascinating. The report he continued reading was really fascinating. It's a discovery in mankind's history ever! There were a lot of people out there whom has the Y chromosome as a dominant DNA and retained both the form of a man, including the reproduction organ. But he, of all males whom shared this dominant hand, could trigger an I.S? Not to mention the sync. Rate is 100% too meaning that he could freely moved the I.S just like moving his own body. This case never happened before. Even Ichika Orimura couldn't sync perfectly with it for the first time of the trigger occurrence.

Flipping over page by pages skim reading all information, he reached the medical examination result.

Multiple blunt traumas were detected inside subject's brain leading to the case of amnesia. Several vital organs were critically injured. Cause of injury were delivered by sharp objects and critical blunt force traumas detected from an I.S causing subject's ribs were totally destroyed during the contact, internal bleedings were inevitable. Subject also carried several projectiles inside his body and the operation of carrying the projectiles out was carried successfully in Tokyo Military Hospital in xx-xx-20xx on xx:xx:xx by a surgery team lead by AKIRA.

Judging from the size of the projectiles, they were identified as 7.62mm assault rifle rounds, 9mm semi-auto, and a .50cal took place inside subject's kidney.

The Dr. Declared that subject was dead in xx:xx:xx.

By the order given by the Security Chief of I.S Academy himself, GILVER VERGIL, under the Authorization Act No.5, subject was transported into Cell A13 in order to be monitored by GILVER VERGIL himself.

In the next morning, subject suddenly showing tissue reparation progress. Internal wounds were closed by themselves as a result of regeneration symptom. Neither signs of augmentations nor nanomachines are detected inside the host. Subject will be held for a meantime until further investigations carried on, or a conclusion is made by the councils.

1st interrogation will be lead by CHIFUYU ORIMURA in xx-xx-20xx, xx:xx:xx for 2 hours or less time limit.

xx-xx-20xx

Security Chief,

GILVER VERGIL

"What are you, actually?"

He let the word escaped and the files off. Remembering the first time Gilver met him, the man was somewhat... 'unreadable'. Suddenly, Gilver thought of something. Turning on his laptop for a data of his I.S, he began working on it. That man was special. He could tell it. Something was challenging him to gamble for this man by putting all his assets-and his life for him.

Ever since the I.S was created, the balance of the society became one sided. Women, as they was the only being that could use that war machine, began looking down on men. They treated men like their slaves for those who were born with physical appearance that didn't suit their taste. Sometimes, Gilver saw them treated men like a dog in a walk. Or lower that it. Men whom were powerless only could obey and played their games all their life. Those who tried to oppose, usually got arrested by a cop as they were protecting the potential 'assets' for the I.S. This situation made him sick and reminded him of France's aristocrats: Bitching and behaving like one until Declaration Des troits el'homme et du citoyen put them on a leash and delivered the judgement in a revolution. Although the sign of balance restoration came from a teen named Ichika Orimura, Gilver's disappointed as Ichika threw it away. He's not realized his position as a chosen and if he did, he would throw it eventually. That could be told from his first impression on him.

If one of the girls on the list could pilot his I.S, then Gilver'd be damned for having his best creation that could eradicate a continent fell in the wrong hands. Somehow, he felt like he could trust this stranger with his I.S, also his hope of balance restoration while dealing with Phantom Task at the same time. The table's finally set, players on their chair, cars already dealt, the bet's on. And he had a good set to begin with. All he needed now was the river to show up and the showdown began.

Soon, very soon enough.

To kill the remaining time, Gilver pulled a piece of a family photo from his wallet. He decided to reminiscence a bit. There were a pair of married couple and their children inside the picture. The mother was a beautiful long-wavy scarlet, the father's face couldn't be seen as there was a burnt mark left on the picture.

The children were twins.

One with the white hair, was Gilver himself.

On the other hand, the one with a black hair,

Was Dante.

And the subject awfully looked like him.
