Episode 08
~ Escape for Tomorrow (Part I) ~
Invitation to the Past
While listening at commander Hayate Yagami's briefing, contract mage Els Tasmin and Hallie Tribeca couldn't help themselves from somehow wondering on what have actually been happening, after all. Contract mage Viktoria Dahlgrün and Sieglinde Eremiah on the other hand decided to carefully listen at commander Hayate Yagami's briefing while taking any important note using their respective devices. Flügel der Freiheit's current leader in which also happen to be Nakajima Gym's assistant director, contract mage Micaiah Chevelle was seen helping both commander Hayate Yagami and investigation agent Lutecia Alpine with their briefing, as she carefully wrote a separate report for comparison to the one that Viktoria and Sieglinde have been writing currently. Einhalt herself in the meantime was trying to carefully listen at commander Hayate Yagami's briefing albeit unfortunately failed from doing so.
"Don't worry, Einhalt-san. I already write some notes about it. We can compare them together with the one that Ave-nii, Rio and Corona has been writing currently…" telepathically reassured Vivio in which currently sat next to her, as she decided to also gave her beloved older girlfriend an equally reassuring smile as well, at the same time. "H-hai, Vivio-san. I only am worrying about Ave-san's condition. Since according to anything that Shamal-sensei has told us, his Linker Core has yet completely recovered. Because of that, Ave-san has been told to refrain himself from performing any advanced projection or even worse creating his Reality Marble, after all…" replied Einhalt back before decided to let an almost inaudible small sigh out as well, in return.
"It could truly becoming quite problematic if Ave-nii decided to cast Unlimited Blade Works with his current condition, Einhalt-san. Although, I personally always know that Ave-nii can be quite reckless while fighting against any powerful opponents, unfortunately…" responded Vivio back telepathically, as she was in reality also worried if her beloved older brother-like adopted uncle, Ave would end up straining himself and his Linker Core because of that. "I think both commander Yagami and your mother has already warned him not to overexert his Linker Core for the time being, Vivio-san. Although, I truly am certain that Ave-san is currently performing a mental algebra with Tink Erbel's help while listening at commander Yagami's briefing…" replied Einhalt back, as Vivio noticed on how her beloved older brother-like adopted uncle was secretly training himself with mental calculation and algebra while simultaneously listening at his beloved older girlfriend's speech as well.
Rio and Corona in which seated next to him were busy taking notes with their respective Devices helping them, as Miura and Xveria were listening at the briefing itself attentively. Vivio and Einhalt also somehow noticed on how both Sein and Chantez Arpinion were attending this briefing as the Church of the Saint King's representatives sent by director "Knight" Carim Gracia and sister Schach Nouera as per-Hayate's request since the entire situation in front of them have now becoming a lot more dire and chaotic after all. Next to Sein and Chantez were Hayate's faithful knights, the Wolkenritter as they have been listening at their meister's briefing attentively while also asking some questions as well occasionally.
"Surely this would be the largest number of commander Yagami's personal army that will be deployed ever since the First Defensive War itself. Don't you think so, Einhalt-san…?" telepathically enquired Vivio while spotting both of her beloved Nanoha-mama and Fate-mama were sitting next to those indomitable "Strikers" that they have been trained five or six years ago. Subaru and Teana were seen exchanging notes and information while Erio and Caro carefully read some additional information in which they have just received from Teana and her aide, Runessa Magnus the day before. "Hai, Vivio-san. Unfortunately Nove-san and Yumina-san were not able to participate since they need to keep on managing Nakajima Gym in our absence. I would say, it has been quite a miracle for us to still somehow manage to represent our Nakajima Gym and fight in some of their tournaments last year. Again it was thanks to how the flow time has been altered and work differently, separating the way our third newborn world's space and time continuum from those Bureau's administrated and non-administrated worlds in which we came from, our Mid-Childa and your mother's earth are included…" telepathically replied Einhalt back while mentioning on how Nove and Yumina would not be able to participate in this upcoming mission itself.
"W-well, according to Ave-nii, this entire anomaly should fix itself automatically when we returned to Mid-Childa. Also, I miss not only Nove-san and Yumina-san but also Fabia-san as well…" responded Vivio back while mentioning on how she wished to wrap this entire mission as quickly as possible before returning home to Mid-Childa together with everyone else afterwards. Einhalt definitely understood this longing, as she also wished that none of these chaotic incidents were spreading even further. Nevertheless, both Vivio and Einhalt were also understand fully on how it would still be a long way to go before they could somehow return back to Mid-Childa, as unless all of those anomalies in which the Third Magic or Heaven's Feel have been creating ceased to exist, this perpetual journey across countless multiple multiverse and possibility would continue on, forever and ever. Because of that, both Vivio and Einhalt have already made up their mind to keep on moving forward and continue this longest journey home without even giving up.
By the time investigator Ginga Nakajima and her assistant as well as younger sister, Cinque Nakajima started to reveal any additional information that they have found during their own private investigation, Einhalt has once again remembered on how eliminating those anomalies in which multiple Heaven's Feel have created in the past would never actually be easy, after all. Together with Vivio, Einhalt has been involved in numerous incidents that multiple different Heaven's Feel created across multiple different multiverses itself. Even before she officially acted as Flügel Team's vice squad leader, Einhalt has already steeled her resolve to prevent any tragedies in which Heaven's Feel has perpetually been creating, after all. Together with the future Flügel Team's squad leader, Vivio Takamachi in which also happen to be her adorable younger girlfriend, Einhalt participated in multiple different version of Holy Grail Wars as an irregular factor before successfully preventing most of those Heaven's Feel from taking place by either prematurely halted the entire ritual itself or completely ensuring the said holy chalice's destruction at the end of the aforementioned ritual itself.
For some reason that was still remain a mystery for her as well as Vivio however, Einhalt noticed on how the entire threat that she has currently been facing already evolved into something else that she never actually encountered before. Unlike the Holy Grail War ritual, Beastly Scourge and Undead Curse in which previously happened during her ancestor, Claus G.S Ingvalt's era approximately six hundred years ago, the entire threat that has becoming a major topic of discussion in this briefing has been entirely new for her. Vivio mentioned on how similar it actually was to every other Heaven's Feel that they have encountered in the past. Nevertheless, Einhalt herself could definitely recognising the threat in which it possessed, as for the very first time in her life she was somehow feel slightly concerned or perhaps even terrified about it.
"This entire incident is definitely happen to be a lot more complicated than what we have all been predicting, Vivio-san. Because of that, it might actually take us quite a while to resolve them as now everything has unfortunately evolved into multifaceted incidents or conflicts after all…" telepathically replied Einhalt back at her younger Sankt Kaiser-girlfriend's respond just now, as she decided to also reminded her on how this entire mission itself would definitely take quite some times for them as well as everyone else to resolve. "I see. For some reason, I know it would take us quite some times before we could finally resolve this problematic mission, Einhalt-san. It might also require us to revisit some past events as well as Ave-nii's old world as well, I believe. Again, commander Yagami has yet officially inform us anything about that, but I could somehow guessing that it might go down into that particular development and direction, unfortunately…" once again responded Vivio back telepathically, as she decided to let her older Hegemon-girlfriend, Einhalt knew about what they might be required to do next.
Visiting past events in different branched version of time and space continuums could be interesting as well as frightening at the same time. Both the genre savvy Vivio and Einhalt were definitely aware of that, as they have once done that when a certain former Magic God named Othinus decided to dismantle the third newborn world's layer of "phases" in order to recreate the "Pure World" from its remain. While experiencing multiple different timelines and possibilities in what seemingly infinite loops together with their companions, Vivio's beloved Ave-nii, Reinforce Eins and Symphogear's attuned Hibiki Tachibana, Einhalt remembered on how the supposedly straightforward "timeline", "phase" and "alternate possibility" never actually existed after all. Even with a smallest alteration that she or someone else's might decide to apply, one particular timeline would be heading towards a different path of outcome, creating a paradox in which existed only within her as well as Vivio's memories, dreams and déjà vu.
Ave has previously told them about the very nature of time and space continuum itself, as both Einhalt and Vivio could somehow learn more over the volatility of such thing in which seemed insignificant for them as well as everyone else in general. Together with Einhalt's cherished protégé, Fūka Reventón and Vivio's rival, Rinne Berlinetta, they arrived at the core of this entire multiple multiverse itself, as the unison-ed Ave and Reinforce Eins decided to investigate certain incident with Olivier Sägebrecht and Claus G.S Ingvalt's help. From the said older young Time Diver Enforcer, Ave J.C Takamachi's investigation in which Olivier and Claus have decided to happily help, Vivio, Einhalt, Fūka and Rinne could finally learn on how such aforementioned outcome has definitely been inevitable since their encounter in which this entire newborn eternal reality itself could facilitate has already becoming an anomaly, a paradox that should never happened in the first place.
Nevertheless both Olivier Sägebrecht and Claus G.S Ingvalt have actually been happy with that, as the second chance in which given to them have indeed becoming a blessing after all. Even if their entire life would end up becoming a paradox itself, Vivio, Einhalt, Fūka, Rinne and Ave have already decided to accept them unconditionally. It was also when both Vivio and Einhalt could somehow remember another past event that took place in their beloved Time Diver Enforcer, Ave J.C Takamachi's old world, as this particular past event has unfortunately been an unpleasant one.
Together with her beloved Nanoha-mama, Vivio was accidentally thrown into Ave's old world. Einhalt and Ave himself were also thrown into this aforementioned world, as the four of them would later on caught in the middle of conflict in which well famously known as a "Scarlet Dawn Incident". Vivio and Einhalt remembered very well on how Ave was actually been testing another Caledfwlch Techniques' humanoid fighting unit prototype, CW-RX-0 Unicorn for its Universal Century Project, as he accidentally activates its mysterious system dubbed as Laplace's Box before teleporting them into his old world or perhaps another alternative version of it.
Vivio's beloved Nanoha-mama that was acting as an OPFOR using a prototype of CW-AEC00X Fortress AEC Armament and CW-AEC02X Strike Cannon AEC Armament has been caught in the middle of this temporal dimensional rift in which CW-RX-0 Unicorn has been accidentally activating together with both Vivio and Einhalt that also has been visiting her (them) as well. A temporal dimensional rift that Unicorn's mysterious Laplace's Box has been creating accidentally threw Vivio, Einhalt, Nanoha and Ave himself into this another world in which almost exactly the same with the aforementioned young Time Diver Enforcer's old world itself, after all. The only thing that might have somehow been different was the existence of multiple individuals in which supposedly only existed within the said world's fictional works known as "Creation" and how their existences have been heavily influencing this world's destiny, at the same time.
According to her younger genre savvy younger girlfriend, Einhalt learnt on how most if not all of those people she encountered after Break The World were originally happen to be just another fictional characters after all. Her younger girlfriend's beloved older brother-like adopted uncle, Ave has told them once on how these newborn eternal realities' formation were originated from multiple alternate multiverses in which some of them have once existed in his old world's fictional works for some strange reason. Supposedly both Vivio and Einhalt were also among those "Creation" as well, although their beloved Time Diver Enforcer, Ave J.C Takamachi has reassured them that they should never let themselves concerned over that. Since in the end, it was never actually important for Ave personally on whether his newfound family, friends, allies and comrade in arms were originally from, as they would always be those very people in which he truly loves and cherishes dearly above anything or anyone else in this countless multiple multiverse itself, after all.
Vivio and Einhalt remembered very well on how some "evil" countries in their beloved Time Diver Enforcer, Ave J.C Takamachi's old world has currently waging a violent war against a certain island nation in which located on the eastern rim of the Pacific Ocean. Known for its hardworking and polite citizens, this certain small but technologically advanced island nation has becoming part of the Far East Defense Line against the encroaching small rogue nation and their "evil" superpower supporters. By the time Vivio, Einhalt, Nanoha and Ave have accidentally arrived in this another alternative version of the said young Time Diver Enforcer's old world, Korean peninsula has completely scorched into cinders as most of its citizens took refuge on other nearby countries, in which this aforementioned certain island nation also happen to be kind enough to accept them.
Einhalt vividly remembered on how she together with Vivio, Nanoha and Ave have arrived on that certain island nation's northern region before witnessing a single outdated intercontinental ballistic missile has currently been aimed at a commercial airline. Einhalt's beloved younger girlfriend, Vivio instinctively sprung into action as she flew right in between the aforementioned intercontinental ballistic missile and commercial airline before shooting the aforementioned outdated ICBM unit down using her strongest (aimed) bombardment attack spell, "Sacred Blazer" afterwards, saving those commercial airline's passengers in process. When a pair of the aforementioned island nation's jet fighters in which outwardly similar to a certain single-engine supersonic multi-role fighter aircraft albeit slightly larger have been scrambled to intercept the aforementioned outdated ICBM unit itself, Vivio, Einhalt, Nanoha and Ave were already agree to escort the commercial airline after they contacted its pilot and co-pilot.
According to Nanoha and of course her beloved genre savvy daughter, Vivio, those jet fighters were derived from United States' single-engine supersonic multi-role fighter aircraft, F-16 Fighting Falcon albeit with better fuselage as well as avionic system since this certain small nation's Self Defense Force need to keep their combative capability especially air superiority up-to-date against its enemies and rival nations after all. It was also when Einhalt learnt the official designated name for those two single-engine supersonic multi-role fighter aircrafts as Mitsubishi F-2 in which also be an equivalent for her (their) third newborn world's third generation Tactical Surface Fighter, Type-94 Shiranui, at the same time.
One of the said Mitsubishi F-2 fighter aircraft's pilots has contacted them and personally thanked Vivio for protecting the said commercial airline just now. Vivio bashfully told those Mitsubishi F-2 fighter aircraft's pilots that she only did what is right and everyone else would also definitely done the same if such situation has arise in front of them and they were more than capable of doing so. Einhalt, Nanoha and Ave were also agree with Vivio's respond at those two Mitsubishi F-2 fighter aircraft's pilots, as they would also definitely done the exact same thing if any civilians life were threatened. Even if Time-Space Administrative Bureau's policy often prohibit any of its operatives or combat mages to actively getting involved in non-administrated world's politic and/ or conflict, Einhalt as well as Vivio, Nanoha and Ave have remembered very well on how their beloved commander Yagami already successfully made an appeal for TSAB's high council to somehow revise their staunch policy for their non-involvement in non-administrated world's politic and/ or conflict.
The revised law and regulation that has been made public approximately one and half month since Ave's arrival in Mid-Childa stated that limited assistance especially the one in which humanitarian in nature was permitted, although any Time-Space Administrative Bureau's operatives, agents and contract mages that seek to actively participating in any non-administrated world's politic and/ or conflict for a noble cause shall never have their previously placed or installed limiter removed in order to minimize any damage that they might inflicted. Despite that particular relation has explicitly designed to prevent any mages with S-ranked and above to utilize their full power, Einhalt personally has definitely pleased on how she would no longer be completely prohibited by it.
Vivio, Nanoha and Ave have also agree on how Time-Space Administrative Bureau's revised article has given them an ability to participate in non-administrated world's politic and conflict, as long as they have done it to protect any innocent people from being victimized by the said world's politic and conflict itself. When Einhalt together with Vivio, Nanoha and Ave have successfully escorted the said commercial airline to the nearby airbase, they were greeted with a mind-blowing and breathtaking view of a gigantic humanoid fighting machine in which three times or even more taller, bigger and cooler than a newest G-Unit prototype, CW-RX-0 Unicorn in which Vivio's beloved Ave-nii has currently been piloting. It was when Einhalt learnt that this imposing humongous humanoid giant robot in metallic jet-black coloured paintjob's name as Gigas Machina and it originally came from another alternative eternal reality together with its sixteen years old pilot, Rui Kanoya through a mysterious GATE that suddenly appeared in Ginza district nine months ago.
According to one of the SDF's (Self Defense Force's) first lieutenant Yōji Itami, multiple different "Creation" have arrived from countless different branches paths in which existed within the aforementioned GATE's limbo, as some of them unlike those marauders that came from the "Special Region" beyond the GATE itself, these "Creation" has agree to help his small country to defend itself. It was from what Nanoha and Vivio has personally told her afterwards, Einhalt learnt the name of this country to be no other than Hinomoto, in which also known by another name in the past, Empire of Japan. Currently Hinomoto was the only country that established political and diplomatic relationship with the Special Region's governing body after its SDF established a military installation, housing facilities and other regular town's amenities for any refugees that fled from the Flame Dragon's attack and their Empire's tyrannical rule after its first prince, Zorzal El Caesar's successful coup four months ago.
From the story that first lieutenant Yōji Itami and ensign Rui Kanoya has been narrating in their first official meeting, Einhalt, Vivio, Nanoha and Ave learnt on how the situation has been deteriorating even after a number of "Creation" together with Yōji Itami's Third Recon Team successfully overthrew Zorzal and later on the previous emperor, Molt Sol Augustus decided to make her youngest child, princess Piña Co Lada as a crown princess and heir for his empire's throne one and half month ago. According to the former crown princess of Holy Ulterstein Kingdom in which now has becoming a mercenary knight that helped Yōji Itami's Third Recon Team on overthrowing Zorzal, the current crown princess Piña Co Lada was definitely young, inexperienced and naïve. Nevertheless, the aforementioned female mercenary knight and inheritor of certain magical Device-like gauntlet, Götz von Berlichingen, Alicetaria February, despite of her inexperienced and naïvety, Piña Co Lada was an excellent leader, as with experiences and knowledge that she accumulate after becoming Saderan Empire's crown princess, she would definitely be able to overcome almost any adversaries without fail.
When Nanoha asked first lieutenant Itami on how the situation has somehow been deteriorating despite their successful attempt of overthrowing Zorzal the tyrannical emperor himself, both Itami and Kanoya decided to explain on how many different countries started to preying over Hinomoto's exclusive access and diplomatic relationship that they have enjoyed with Special Region's Saderan Empire and its neighbouring regions have flourished in these past six months ever since the aforementioned GATE appeared in Ginza district nine months ago. With United States of America failed to have their "once again forceful" invitation accepted by those Special Region's representatives, as well as their attempt to kidnap princess Piña Co Lada and her confidant, Bōzes Co Palesti, daughter of marquis Palesti together with three special guests that Hinomoto's government has invited personally, a nomadic young female magician Lelei La Lalēna, a young elf princess Tuka Luna Marceau and a demi-goddess in Gothic Lolita attire Rory Mercury, they have decided to cowardly pulled their present forces away from the aforementioned island nation itself despite the "Treaty of Mutual Cooperation and Security" that they have signed together initially in 1952 at San Francisco Presidio.
From what she and Vivio learnt afterwards, Ave and Nanoha has completely feel aghast for such cowardly and dishonourable behaviour in which the most powerful superpower country displayed after they tried to kidnap another dimension's dignitaries in the past. According to both Itami and Kanoya, this aforementioned most powerful superpower country that has yet should named for their cowardly betrayal and dishonourable behaviour decided to also isolate Hinomoto from any trade that they previously engaged, shared and enjoyed together in the past. Relying only with their exclusive trade, political and diplomatic relationship with Saderan Empire, as well as help that other "Creation" are more willing to provide, Hinomoto manage to maintain its presence as one of the small yet strong and prominent country in the Pacific region despite of being completely isolated by its former superpower yet coward ally.
When Einhalt decided to ask on whether other countries also had any of these "Creation" visiting them in these past nine months, both Itami and Kanoya were only sheepishly laughed while nodding at her, in return. Vivio in which decided to ask even further would soon learnt on how many other "Creation" in which supposedly more famously known than Hinomoto's exclusive "Creation" were either busy flexing their muscles in their spandex costumes or worse engaged in an internal strife over shallow political ideology that should never be their main focus. Again according to Itami personally, most if not all of those shallow political ideologies has actually never existed in the first place as unfortunately many young generation people in that aforementioned superpower country has been easily manipulated on believing for those political ideologies to be existed, noble and should be defended with their lives. Instead of investigating on whether such ideologies that only led them into an internal strife and chaos was indeed exist or just a manipulative idea that some vile individuals have been concocted, these young generation people blindly fought to defend them even getting injured or killed in the process, sadly.
From what Einhalt, Vivio and Nanoha would later on learnt, those young people in Ave's old world has often acted impulsively based on what they see in social medias and wordpress blogs rather than fact-checking them with other source of information in which happen to be a lot more credible than those biased personal written opinions of morally corrupted bloggers and/ or sensationalist reporters. Ave has personally despised them even before he accepted Olivier Sägebrecht and Ayin Barshem's offer on becoming another Time Diver while inheriting the said Last Saint King (Sankt Kaiser) of the Cradle's gene and blood in the past. What happened here in front of his eyes mirrored any stupidity that any young generation back in his old world has been happily committing for the sake of being cool and awesome, as Ave has vocally expressing his discontent in front of Itami and Kanoya in their meeting back then. That did not surprise Einhalt, Vivio and Nanoha, as they knew exactly on how their beloved new family member has only been expressing his disappointment over what happened since he was in the end incapable of doing anything about it in the past.
Vivio has reassured Ave that no matter what happened to his old world, her beloved Ave-nii will always be her beloved Ave-nii after all. Nanoha at the same time also decided to remind him on he always be her beloved younger brother and he never actually wrong for disappointed at those young generation back in his old world. Einhalt personally has also reassured Ave that no matter what kind of path that he decided to follow after becoming Another Time Diver, she would always be there to support him without fail. Since Einhalt, Vivio and Nanoha have truly love and care about the said young Time Diver Enforcer's wellbeing, safety and happiness after all. It was when Einhalt and Vivio have secretly made up their mind to always keep their eyes at Ave in order to protect him while without fail ensuring his wellbeing, safety and happiness as well, at the same time.
After spending another three months or so in this alternative version of Ave's old world, Einhalt, Vivio, Nanoha and Ave himself decided to also defending Hinomoto from their enemies, namely a certain small rogue nation led by a young but unfortunately deranged dictator and its industrialist superpower supporter that kept on secretly pumping the aforementioned rogue regime itself with cheaply made weapons and provisions, at the same time. According to Ave's explanation, both the aforementioned small rogue nation and its industrialist superpower supporter has long wished for the creation of Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere under their command, as the withdrawal of Hinomoto's most powerful ally definitely boosted their confidence for getting such evil ambition done in no time. Again, Einhalt and Vivio have also learnt from the said young Time Diver Enforcer, Ave J.C Takamachi himself on how his old world's humanity were among the worst of the worst as they always destroy one another for the most trivial things, after all.
By the time Time-Space Administrative Bureau's expeditionary taskforce battalion, Special Duty Section 6 has arrived to retrieve Nanoha, Vivio, Einhalt and Ave, multiple conflicts and open warfare already engulfed the said alternative version of his (Ave's) old world, as alliances between smaller countries and kingdoms were made in order to completely conquer if not destroy Hinomoto, after all. While gathering under multiple banners of religions, ideologies and national prides, these alliances of multiple different selfish nations decided to mount countless direct assaults toward the small island nation of Hinomoto, hoping that they could completely overwhelm it by the sheer of brute force alone. Since Hinomoto's former superpower ally has now completely crippled for having their people and "Creation" fight among each other, the alliance of these evil nations in which later on dubbed as Coalition of Old Governments or COG could easily conquer it before enslaving its population afterwards.
Vivio, Einhalt, Nanoha and Ave heard multiple rumours on how a group of metahuman "Creation" under the banner of Justice League of Avengers tried to fight back and liberate their people's supposedly most powerful superpower country from its conqueror. Sadly however, their struggle were crushed instantly as none of them were powerful enough to fight back against their enemies after engaged in long bickering among themselves. Without any sense of trust, justice and camaraderie among those metahuman "Creation" and their supporters, their struggle instantly end up in vain as most of them were imprisoned and executed by their captors. Vivio and Einhalt remembered very well on how SDF's Third Recon Team and the now empress Piña Co Lada's Rose-Order of Knighthoods have been trying to infiltrate Hinomoto's former superpower ally in order to rescue those metahuman "Creation" from their execution, although they were forced to retreat after only rescuing less than five metahuman "Creation", unfortunately.
Realizing that sooner or later Hinomoto and its current "Creation" allies would soon forced to defend themselves in this senseless war, Time-Space Administrative Bureau's expeditionary taskforce battalion, Special Duty Section 6 under lieutenant colonel Hayate Yagami's command decided to provide their new ally, Hinomoto with assistance of defending its territory. It was when thirty CW-ADX Armour Dine units known as Raptor were deployed under Xveria Nakajima, Thoma Avenir, Lily-Strosek and Isis Egret's command while another additional ten units were loaned to SDF's Third Recon Team to boost their defences as well as combative capabilities.
For the first time ever since their involvement in the First Defensive War's campaign in Naggiar Plains that Vivio and Einhalt witnessed the full-deployment of Time-Space Administrative Bureau's expeditionary taskforce battalion, Special Duty Section 6 in combat. It was also when N2R's members were also deployed for the second time in combat, as under master sergeant Ginga Nakajima's command, the other four Nakajima Sisters other than Ginga and Subaru have been ready to defend their new allies in open warfare against those enemies that in which have already conquered this alternative version of old world's most powerful superpower country, unfortunately.
Alicetaria February and her beloved girlfriend, a caring orthodox magical girl Mamika "Slayer" Kirameki have personally told Vivio and Einhalt on how they were amazed with Special Duty Section 6's actual combat capabilities before expressing their interest to join its parent organization, Time-Space Administrative Bureau if possible. It was when both Vivio and Einhalt have decided to inform Alicetaria and Mamika on how they should try to first apply as Time-Space Administrative Bureau's contract mages first, as hopefully they would be assigned in one of its sub-divisions or even better in Special Duty Section 6 itself. Realizing that Time-Space Administrative Bureau's true power and influence might be able to help Alicetaria in her quest for liberating her own eternal reality or world, she personally decided to submit her contract mage's application form to Hayate while Mamika happily followed her on doing so.
Together with their newfound allies in this alternative version of Ave's old world, Einhalt and Vivio would soon find themselves participating in another fierce open warfare, as this time around their enemies were undeniably corrupted if not outright evil, after all. Einhalt's protégé, Fūka Reventón and her best friend, Rinne Berlinetta were also participating in this conflict as once again the fame that both the said Miracle Rookie and Berlinetta Brand's Brünnhilde previously amassed during both magical martial arts tournaments and real combat situations would have forever terrorized their enemies in which foolish enough to underestimate them. Once again both Fūka and Rinne's fames were skyrocketing, as they single-handedly fought the entire enemy's battalion before defeating them in order to protect Hinomoto's border at the same time.
Unlike Vivio and Einhalt that have met Ave for quite some times beforehand, both Fūka and Rinne were actually just another newcomers in their big Special Duty Section 6's family, as the two of them never actually participated in real combat previously. Fortunately for Fūka and Rinne however, Ave has previously met them when he visited both Nakajima Gym and Frontier Gym for regular exercise as well as practicing his swordsmanship, as his impression about them would always be a positive one after all. Unbeknownst to both Einhalt and Vivio however, it was actually Ave that recommended Fūka and Rinne as another cadets or contract mages for Special Duty Section 6's newly formed sub-division, Flügel der Freiheit in which they would later on known by their call signs, Baselard 01 and Baselard 02 respectively.
In the end, Special Duty Section 6 and their new "Creation" allies could successfully protect Hinomoto from those rogue nations and their industrialist superpower supporter's invasion while mounting a counteroffensive as well, in return. Together with Rui Kanoya, a chosen pilot for super robot Gigas Machina, a young princess, adventurer and wandering knight, Selesia Upitiria in which also happen to be a chosen pilot or harmoniser for Elemental Symphony Machine, Vogelchevalier, a stoic mercenary princess knight Alicetaria February and her beloved younger girlfriend, an orthodox magical girl Mamika "Slayer" Kirameki, Time-Space Administrative Bureau's Special Duty Section 6 have finally able to mount a counteroffensive assault against this aforementioned rogue nation in which currently under the protection of its industrialist superpower nation's supporter while having SDF's Third Recon Team together with N2R Team infiltrating the said rogue nation secretly in order to take its nation's leader out of picture as swiftly as possible.
With Cinque Nakajima leading both SDF's Third Recon Team and N2R to secretly infiltrating the said rogue nation's territory, sergeant first class Shino Kuribayashi could finally fulfilling her mission by successfully removing the aforementioned rogue nation's young deranged leader before escaped back to Hinomoto's soil not long afterwards. With the unpronounced demise of their young deranged leader in which according to first lieutenant Yōji Itami has been comparable to the late mad emperor Zorzal of the Saderan Empire himself, the aforementioned rogue nation that has been terrorizing this alternative version of Ave's old world was finally crumble before completely forgotten from its annals of history, in the end. It was when Time-Space Administrative Bureau's Special Duty Section 6 decided to leave the said world behind, as their presence would only creating another divisions and unhealthy rivalries among other "Creation" instead of benefiting them as well as Hinomoto itself, after all.
It was the last time for Einhalt and Vivio to actually see them until recently they have met both Selesia Upitiria and her beloved boyfriend, the wandering swordsman Charon Seiga during Yggdmillennia's Great Holy Grail War, shortly before they were thrown into another pocket dimension accidentally and encounter four fearsome sorcerers in which belongs to a mysterious organization, Longinus Dreizehn Orden afterwards. No one knew the origin of these Longinus Dreizehn Orden's sorcerers, as their sudden emergence have instantly thrown multiple different multiverse into a state of chaos. Nevertheless, Einhalt and Vivio would never forget the encounter with four of Longinus Dreizehn Orden's sorcerers that they experienced two days ago. It was within a pocket dimension created by those four Longinus Dreizehn Orden's sorcerers that Vivio and Einhalt saw another solid proof or undeniable testament of certain most deadly conflict in their beloved Time Diver Enforcer, Ave J.C Takamachi's old world.
The Battle of Berlin itself was only a perfect stage for Longinus Dreizehn Orden to activate their very own version of the Third Magic or Heaven's Feel. Utilizing those tortured souls of countless soldiers and civilians that met their violent demise during Battle of Berlin, Longinus Dreizehn Orden has successfully recreating their very own vessel for Heaven's Feel itself. The Holy Grail that they have summoned, unlike the one that Vivio and Einhalt have previously dismantled for numerous times already, was definitely crude, devoid to the glorious miracle in which the supposedly one and only god from those monotheistic religions have been blindly worshiped.
"Glaðsheimr is the Bureau's designated name for this holy chalice's vessel that our enemies have successfully summoned in this physical plane…" stated Hayate, as Ginga and Cinque decided to show everyone else a visual recording that Time-Space Administrative Bureau's current collaborator, the third newborn world's 101 Independent Magic-Equipped Battalion manage to capture using their prototype of humanoid fighting machine, the "White Glint". It was when the view of a certain flying golden city with multiple castles in the middle of the said cityscape itself has been projected on the large high-definition hologram screen behind Hayate, as once again the said Special Duty Section 6's commander, lieutenant colonel Hayate Yagami began to continue her speech, shortly afterwards.
"At this very moment, we have two ongoing different cases simultaneously happened right in front of our eyes. Firstly, the Greater Grail's vessel in which Yggdmillennia has successfully kept hidden was stolen, as some of you might not know about it. Secondly, based on the latest report that I personally received from special operative lieutenant Ryūya Ōguro, Glaðsheimr would be arriving in one of the parallel eternal reality in which our mages have accidentally visited in the past…" explained Hayate in her speech before everyone were seen talking among themselves after they heard her explanation clearly just now. "May I ask you a question, commander Yagami…?" asked Nanoha while raising her right hand, as Hayate quickly gave her best friend an approval nod while answering her question, in return. "Certainly, instructor Takamachi. I already suspect that you might want to ask something..." replied Hayate back while giving her best friend, Nanoha an approval to ask a question as well, shortly afterwards.
"Is this parallel eternal reality that it might be visiting happen to be the one that Vivio, Einhalt-chan, Ave-kun and I have visited by accident in the past…? The one that we all get entangled in a conflict among its nations and almost sparked the third final Great War in the process, commander Yagami…?" asked Nanoha while trying to reconfirm her concern over the place that they might soon be visiting in order to pursue Longinus Dreizehn Orden has actually been the parallel alternative version of Ave's old world, after all. It was when as what Nanoha has already feared, Hayate gave her an affirmative nod, acknowledging her question happen to be indeed correct, after all. "From the coordinate that skipper Lucino has informed me yesterday, Glaðsheimr is currently approaching that parallel alternative version of Ave-kun's old world before disappeared into a nearby small fractured dimensional fissure. We have yet determine its exact location, although one thing that is definitely certain, Longinus Dreizehn Orden has decided to use that aforementioned parallel alternative version of Ave-kun's old world as another stage for their Heaven's Feel ritual, after all…" responded Hayate back, as she turned her gaze from Nanoha to Fate in which happens to be seated next to the aforementioned Ace of Aces herself, afterwards.
"Do you think it actually is pretty bad, Hayate…?" telepathically asked Fate, as she was wondering on why her beloved fiancé, Nanoha seems to be extremely concerned about one particular eternal reality or dimension in which Longinus Dreizehn Orden has visited in order to conceal themselves from Time-Space Administrative Bureau's pursuit. "From what Nanoha-chan, Vivio and Einhalt have told me before, these Longinus Dreizehn Orden's sorcerers are truly strong as their strength has rivalled even those heroic spirits in their pure forms or veteran Eclipse Drivers in battle. Ave-kun has yet told me about his own opinion regarding to these new enemies but from what happened to his Linker Core as well as Eins, we should assume that our current situation might actually be quite disadvantageous for us na…" telepathically replied Hayate back while trying to calm her best friend, Fate down by smiling at her as well, at the same time.
"I see. Is Einhalt and Vivio said anything about other survivors that they have rescued two days ago…? One of them seems to be quite unusual for having a powerful, efficient yet volatile Linker Core while her companion is possessing a mana conversion affinity for fire-elemental magic, I believe…" telepathically asked Fate for one more time, as this time around Hayate was only smiling at her before reassuring the aforementioned Ace Enforcer herself that everything would have been included into a consideration. "Vivio and Einhalt have told me briefly about those two in which Lucina and Asada first found in that dimension. I haven't actually asked her but Shamal should have already performing a full health check-up on them. I would enquire her tonight and you are more than welcome to accompany me as well, Fate-chan…" replied Hayate back telepathically while reassuring her best friend, Fate that she would try to follow this matter up with Shamal afterwards.
The whole briefing went on for quite a while, as other Special Duty Section 6's operatives and contract mages decided to use this opportunity to ask Hayate, Lutecia, Ginga and Cinque several questions about their own finding before actually wondered on whether they would stand a chance against these Longinus Dreizehn Orden's sorcerers after all. In the meantime, a young squire from the Church of the Saint King or Heiliger Kaiser Church, Chantez Arpinion decided to telepathically asked Vivio about what she actually thought in regards to these new enemies that seem to be extremely powerful and dangerous instead. "Your Majesty…eeer…I mean…Vivio-chi, what do you think of those enemies that you have encountered two days ago…?" telepathically asked Chantez while secretly gave Vivio a V-sign using her right hand, at the same time. "They are definitely strong and fearsome, Chantez. Since it took Nanoha-mama, Ave-nii and myself to fight two of them before we could actually find a small window of opportunity to retreat. Well, I only hope that with commander Yagami and the rest of our Special Duty Section 6's mages participating in this mission, we could actually defeat them somehow…" replied Vivio back telepathically, as she was also trying to reassure Chantez not to worry about it by smiling at her as well, in return. Unfortunately, Chantez was actually quite perceptive as she noticed on how Vivio has been worrying about what might happened to her as well as everyone else next if they decided to pursue those enemies after all.
Chantez was very well aware on how perceptive Vivio has actually been toward many different things that took place after Break The World occurred one and half year ago. After the injury that she suffered when participating in one of those skirmishes against Autocratic East Europan Imperial Alliance and Chimera Corps, Vivio has decided to act more cautiously than before. Even if the aforementioned injury never actually left any lasting effect on her, Vivio was definitely understand on how actual combat has in reality been different with those tournaments that she participated in the past. Unlike the injury that she suffered when fighting Rinne in Winter Cup, as well as other DSAA's organised tournaments, one single mistake could actually cost Vivio her life, unfortunately.
Chantez in particular remembered very well on how after Vivio was injured in that particular skirmish, her beloved older brother-like adopted uncle, Ave decided to create a replica of certain relic that would enable her supposedly long lost defensive fixed skill, "Armour of the Saint King" or the "Saint's Armour" itself, enhancing the supposedly young Sankt Kaiser-girl's frail defense while creating a strong Anti Magilink Field (AMF) effect similar to Eclipse virus' Zero Effect. This replica of certain relic that has been incorporated into Vivio's faithful Device, Sacred Heart was officially named "Collbrande System" by professor Mariel Atenza and her dearest protégé, corporal Shario Finieno, as it would later on grant Vivio almost an impenetrable defense against her enemies' attacks. Combined with her uncanny reflexes, speed and accuracy, Vivio would soon hailed as The Second Coming of Shutra's Princess Knight in which also well famously known for being the venerable Last Saint King of the Cradle herself, at the same time.
"Well, not many people actually knew that Vivio-chi is actually the descendant of Her Majesty, Olivier Sägebrecht and most if not all the record pertaining her true origin has been marked extremely confidential by Time-Space Administrative Bureau's high councils after all…" muttered Chantez alone under her breath while remembering on how she used to personally pointing out the fact of Vivio's weak physical constitution compared to her magical warrior peers such as Miura, Einhalt, Rio, Fūka and Rinne. Everytime Chantez pointed that harsh reality out while hoping that she would give up on becoming a magical martial artist, Vivio was only smiling at her before acknowledging it. Nevertheless, Vivio would never fail to always tell Chantez on how she loves magical martial arts, especially Strike Arts regardless to any of her innate shortcoming, after all.
Because of that Chantez would forever admire and respect Vivio for her ability of acknowledging any of her shortcomings while improving herself exponentially through a strong determination and effort alone. Even if she might never becoming the strongest magical martial artist like Sieglinde, Einhalt or Rinne, Vivio would always be the strongest Strike Arts practitioner in Chantez's heart, as she would forever dedicating her lifetime service towards the aforementioned young descendant of the Last Saint King of the Cradle herself, first and foremost undoubtedly. By the time Vivio received her Saint's Armour back through Sacred Heart's "Collbrande System", Chantez finally realized that the aforementioned frail young Saint King-girl that she would forever admire and respect has now becoming stronger than ever, befitting the very moniker that she has received, The Second Coming of Shutra's Princess Knight even after the original Shutra's Princess Knight, Olivier Sägebrecht returned to this newly created eternal reality itself.
Nevertheless, Vivio seemed to be actually worrying about those enemies that she has faced two days ago and Chantez definitely realize that. From those speeches that Hayate made just now, Chantez learnt that these new enemies in which happen to be identified as Longinus Dreizehn Orden's sorcerers were indeed dangerous. Now that they have most likely been concealing themselves deep within a certain parallel alternative version of Ave's old world, no one know about what kind of atrocities that they would be committing next. In the end, there are two things that have concerned Vivio's mind at the moment, as she tried to hide them from Chantez only to miserably fail from doing so. It was when Chantez decided to telepathically asked Vivio about those two things that have concerned her life, as she only smiled at Chantez herself before replying back at her question just now, in return.
"I'm worried not only the true strength that our opponents have possessed, but also the fact that we will be visiting Ave-nii's old world albeit the parallel alternative version of it, Chantez…" telepathically replied Vivio back before she decided to give Chantez a reassuring smile of hers in order to make sure that she would not be worrying about her anymore. "That seems to be quite a problem, Vivio-chi. Although sister Chantez still could not understand on how visiting Enforcer Takamachi's old world moreover just a parallel alternative version of it could become somehow distressing for him as well as yourself…?" telepathically responded Chantez back at Vivio's reply just now before she decided to ask her younger friend another question as well, afterwards.
"Ave-nii once told me that his old self has died when he accepted Olivier-san and Ayin-san's offer back then. Even if I never actually asked him for more detail, it seems that he was referring on how his new life and destiny is actually belongs here instead of that unchangeable past, after all. Unfortunately, by revisiting that aforementioned parallel alternative version of Ave-nii's old world, we would inadvertently opening an old memory as well as old wound that he most likely wished to forget. That is why, I truly am concerned on what might happen if we are required to visit that parallel alternative version of Ave-nii's old world in order to fight those fearsome enemies, Chantez. Would everything end up being fine, or we might just make another irreversible mistake instead…?" telepathically answered Vivio back, as she in return decided to provide Chantez with another question to ponder about at the same time. It was from Vivio's answer just a while ago; Chantez learnt that Ave has actually wished to forget every single thing that happened to him in his old life. She never actually knew about it until her younger best friend, Vivio told her about that just now.
"Egh…you give me a difficult question to answer here, Vivio-chi. Too bad that Mica-nee is out there helping commander Yagami with her briefing, since she might be able to answer your question better than myself, after all…" telepathically replied Chantez back while glancing quickly at contract mage Micaiah Chevelle in which currently was seen helping Special Duty Section 6's commander Hayate Yagami with her briefing's speech and presentation. "Eeeeh…? I actually wish to hear Chantez's honest opinion about it. What is the point if you need to still asking Micaiah-san for an advice…?" telepathically protested Vivio while pouting as well at the same time. "Well, if you still want to hear my answer instead, Vivio-chi, let us discuss this during our dinnertime together with Einhalt and everyone else. I think it would actually better that way since we can also plan ourselves better for this mission. At least that's what this Sister Chantez believes…" telepathically replied Chantez back, as she in the end manage to successfully convince Vivio to postpone their discussion for the time being.
While listening at the rest of Hayate's speech, Chantez and Vivio decided to continue their telepathic exchange over several other different topics in which still somehow related to Ave himself, personally. Vivio in which have already knew Ave better decided to let Chantez knew on how her beloved older brother-like adopted uncle has actually been giving a lot of thought and consideration over everything that happened after Break The World changed the very structure of this whole countless multiple multiverse itself. It was also when Chantez learnt that Ave's decision to accept Olivier Sägebrecht and Ayin Barshem's offer happens to be actually correct in front of Vivio's eyes. Especially when his choice would later on saved many other people lives from their supposedly tragic demise, after all.
By the time Chantez and Vivio concluded their friendly telepathic exchange, the aforementioned young apprentice nun and squire Chantez Arpinion herself found Ave's decision as well as disposition towards his newfound life after becoming Time Diver has truly been intriguing. Unlike any claim that he previously made about just being a selfish individual that wished only for something new and exciting, Ave had put everyone's feeling into a consideration when he accepted Olivier Sägebrecht and Ayin Barshem's offer on that fateful night, one and half a year ago. Or at the very least, he undeniably had given those would-soon-be his newfound family, friends, allies, comrade in arms and loved ones' feeling into a consideration, as Ave himself wished only for their happiness above anything else, after all.
"No wonder Vivio-chi and Einhalt love him very much. Since Enforcer Takamachi is an admirable individual that idealist enough to actually becoming a true hero while pragmatic enough to also becoming an efficient hero, after all. Unlike EMIYA and other champion of justices that often let their emotion cloud any judgement that they would about to make, Enforcer Takamachi is surprisingly mature enough to act based on both emotion and logical principle in his mind, as such attribute alone has unmistakably been influenced by Vivio-chi's mother, Nanoha-san, I believe…" muttered Chantez alone in her inner monologue as she gave both Vivio and Ave a quick glance before turning her attention back at commander Hayate Yagami, shortly afterwards. In her mind and heart alone, Chantez has already found an answer for Vivio's question about what might awaits them when they visited this aforementioned parallel alternative version of Ave's old world, as the telepathic conversation that she participated a moment ago has surprisingly enlighten her, after all.
Whether this parallel alternative version of Ave's old world happens to be indeed his real old world or just another alternate eternal reality in which uncannily similar to his own aforementioned old world should never actually mattered for him. Since Enforcer Ave J.C Takamachi that Chantez and everyone else knew and cherished dearly was a young Time Diver Enforcer that truly cared about his newfound family, friends, allies, comrade in arms and loved ones' happiness instead of a selfish and wishful "Creator" that would ironically incapable of loving someone, as what his detractors would baselessly claimed him to be. It was her answer, as Chantez undoubtedly believes that such answer would always be the right one, after all.
ED Theme Song: Désir (Performed By: GARNiDELiA)
"Ghaaaah…! Why this kind of extremely dangerous situation is always happen right in front of me!? Fukou da…!" groaned Tōma Kamijō as he was seen running away from his pursuers while carrying both Index and MOMO using both of his arms at the same time. "See…! I told you that Tōma is good at running away like that. Although I do think that we could just try to defeat them with our combined strength and will…! Don't you agree with me MOMO…?" added Index while letting the other girl, MOMO knew on how Kamijō should actually be more than capable of defeating those pursuers in her opinion. MOMO in which has actually tried to defeat those pursuers beforehand quickly shook her head before responding back at Index's words as well, in return.
"I don't think mister Kamijō would alone be capable of defeating these pursuers, miss Index. Since MOMO knew very well on how strong they are after all…" responded MOMO back while arguing that none of their strength combined would be proven sufficient enough to actually defeat these pursuers, unfortunately. "That's right! MOMO is definitely a lot more perceptive than you, Index, since she could realize the severity of our situation without even trying to fight a hopeless battle against those pursuers…!" added Kamijō before he jumped across multiple metal fences in front of him while desperately trying to get away from his dangerous pursuers at the same time.
"But Tōma! Don't you think we could never actually escape them…? Again, where is Tanpatsu when you need her…? Isn't she supposed to be your reliable girlfriend…? Hey! Tōma!" shouted Index while complaining, as she tried to bite on the unfortunate not-so-ordinary spiky-haired high school boy's right arm at the same time. "Ghaaaah! Can't you stop it Index? I can't carry you around when you keep on moving and trying to bite me at the same time…!" screamed Kamijō as he quickly complained at his faithful companion, Index after she tried to bite him just now. "Ugh, it's very difficult to aim them when mister Kamijō is being restless…" muttered MOMO while unsuccessfully trying to shoot those pursuers down using her Ether-based composite bow, LEGOLAS Mark Fünf, at the same time.
Unfortunately, the entire situation was not getting any better, as their pursuers have been relentlessly trying to outrun them albeit still somehow unable to accomplish it thankfully. Nevertheless, Kamijō's misfortune once again struck him, as he took a wrong turn into a certain narrow alleyway in which ended up being a dead end. "Damn it! Why this kind of cliché misfortune always happens to me! Ghaaaah…! Fukou da…!" screamed Kamijō while lamenting over his own misfortune at the same time. It was also when both Index and MOMO could only letting a small sigh before they decided to get themselves ready afterwards. "It seems Tōma's misfortune has once again give us a lot of trouble. Nevertheless, we would definitely be able to fight or even perhaps defeat our pursuers without fail…! Are you with me, MOMO…?" confidently declared Index right after she complained over Kamijō's misfortune that led them into this particularly unfavourable circumstance, at the same time.
"I-I'm ready at any given time miss Index! Since we don't have any choices here other than to fight and defeat our pursuers after all…" reaffirmed MOMO in her reply back while readying her Ether-base composite bow, LEGOLAS Mark Fünf afterwards. Kamijō in the meantime decided to also done the usual thing by clenching his right fist and snarled at his (their) pursuers at the same time. It was when Kamijō, Index and MOMO saw their pursuers have finally caught up with them, as they were identified as a group of heavily armed individuals in futuristic-looking full body armour plates. Unlike those full body armours in which Academy City's Anti-Skill and Hound Dog's combat personnel often wearing in their mission, these futuristic looking armoured pursuers have definitely reminded Kamijō to a certain famous space opera that he together with his father and mother watched in the past.
Unfortunately however, even Kamijō realized on how these pursuers were real and extremely dangerous unlike how they were often depicted in any fictional works. There were twenty of them; all were seen wearing futuristic looking full body armour plates in white coloured paintjob with only one being an exception. One of these pursuers was wearing silver coloured full body armour, as he or she happens to be the tallest among his or her peers. Armed also with a bigger customized futuristic looking-blaster rifle compared to the one that the other shorter nineteen pursuers were currently armed themselves with, this tallest pursuer decided to aim his or her blaster rifle at Kamijō, Index and MOMO's direction before the rest of the shorter pursuers decided to also did the same as well, not long afterwards.
Kamijō, Index and MOMO were desperately about to retaliate, as they knew very well on how futile it truly is for them to even try to defeat those pursuers, unfortunately. Unlike those opponents from both of the Magic-side and Science-side that Kamijō, Index and MOMO have previously fought, as well as those deranged Yharnam's hunters, these pursuers were somehow similar to Anti-Skill and/ or Hound Dog's combat personnel for being an ordinary human being in which dangerously armed with deadly weapons at the same time. Because of that, Kamijō's prized right hand, the Imagine Breaker would unfortunately never worked on such opponents, as despite armed with futuristic looking armaments, they utilize every mundane method in which ironically proven to be effective on bypassing Imagine Breaker's inherent strength.
Nevertheless, Kamijō understood clearly that he could never afford of giving up here. Especially with both Index and MOMO's safety would definitely be compromised once he decided to give up completely, Kamijō decided to desperately clenching his right fist in a futile attempt of fighting those pursuers, at the same time. "W-what should we do Tōma…? I don't think we could defeat them by ourselves…!" warned Index as she tried to dissuade Kamijō from acting recklessly against their pursuers. "But we don't have choice here, Index-san! Since they would never let us get away alive…!" retorted Kamijō back, as he once again turned his attention back at those pursuers, in return. It was also when MOMO decided to give Kamijō an affirmative nod, as she could somehow understood the entire situation in front of her (them) quite well, after all.
Indeed the entire situation has definitely becoming dire, as Kamijō, Index and MOMO's life were now completely endangered by these mysterious futuristic looking pursuers. Unfortunately for them however, these futuristic looking pursuers were well armed and would never let Kamijō, Index and MOMO getting away. Because of that, the only choice that Kamijō, Index and MOMO had was to fight back against these futuristic looking pursuers. Even if the chance for them to completely defeat these pursuers were extremely slim, Kamijō, Index and MOMO have silently made up their mind to fight back. Especially since MOMO in particular has still yet found the very thing that she was looking for, after all. Kamijō and Index on the other hand has also promised the said 100-Series Observational Realian, MOMO Mizrahi that they would accompany and help her in her quest, as the promise that they made has now became the very foundation of their resolve not to give up easily. Even if their futuristic looking opponents were extremely more powerful than them, Kamijō, Index and MOMO decided to fight back, since only by doing so, they could hope to survive for another day, after all.
Those futuristic looking pursuers were about to continue with their slaughter fest, as a flash of blue lightning suddenly appeared right in front of them before a familiar looking female warrior with long light blue hair materialized from it shortly afterwards. Without letting the currently confused pursuers to regain their composure back, this newcomer quickly swung her faithful Device, Vulnificus in its default "Crusher Form" before slicing five of those pursuers' blaster rifles into half, at the same time. It was also when Kamijō and Index in particular saw a Formula-emulated Mid-Childa magic circle underneath the said newcomer herself, as they quickly identify her as one of their friends and comrades from another world beyond the Eclipse region, Eltria that helped them during the First Defensive War back then.
"Levi! Why are you here…? You haven't call us for quite a while…" asked Kamijō with mixed shocked, relieved and slightly disappointed tone in his voice after he noticed the identity of his (their) saviour. Levi Russel in which also previously known as Material-L, Levi the Slasher or Levi of Lightning was only grinning back at Kamijō before she gave him a victory sign using her left hand and replying at his greeting as well, in return. "We are quite busy with everything that happened in Eltria and ya know, fixing this volatile newborn world's timeline for multiple times is never easy, Tōma…! Regardless, I'm happy that we can see each other again in this wonderful battlefield…!" replied Levi back while happily grinning at Kamijō as well, in return. Kamijō on the other hand could only let a small sigh out, as he listened at Levi's easygoing and cheerful reply just now.
"Levi, please calm yourself down for a little, since you are confusing mister Kamijō with your explanation just now…" reminded a calm familiar voice, as Kamijō, Index and MOMO saw another female figure was hovering on the top of Levi herself while aiming her Device, Luciferion at the remaining futuristic looking pursuers at the same time. Kamijō, Index and MOMO were completely speechless, as they found those pursuers' attacks have been completely negated by a vermilion-coloured magical barrier around her, as once again both Kamijō and Index in particular noticed a Formula-emulated Mid-Childa magic circle also in vermilion colour has been formed underneath her feet. MOMO in the meantime noticed on how this other newcomer has been wearing a combat suit or barrier jacket similar to the one that Levi has currently been wearing albeit in vermilion colour and having a long elegant skirt instead of miniskirt, reminding her to a certain famous Time-Space Administrative Bureau's Ace of Aces' Exceed Mode barrier jacket, after all.
"I know that, Stern! But these enemies will definitely harm Tōma if we don't do something about them quickly…!" protested Levi before she transformed Vulnificus from its "Crusher Form" into a "Slicer Form", at the same time. Stern Starks in which also well famously known as Material-S, Stern the Destructor or Stern of Annihilation was only calmly shook her head before she decided to give her also calm respond at Levi's outburst protest as well, in return. "Dearche has personally told us not to let our presence alert Academy City's Board of Directors since we supposedly not to interfere with any affair in which this newborn world has been facing after Amita and Kyrie fixed its timeline during Frozen Teardrop Incident last year. Because of that, please refrain yourself from inadvertently creating a lot of huge explosion when aiding mister Kamijō and miss Index this time around…" calmly responded Stern back before she decided to also letting Levi knew on how her often brash and impulsive action might ended up alerting Academy City, after all.
"Hai…" pouted Levi back with slightly annoyed expression shown on her face at the same time. It was when both Levi and Stern once again turned their attention back at the remaining futuristic looking pursuers in which now desperately try to defeat them. Kamijō, Index and MOMO were then witnessed an extremely one-sided battle as Levi and Stern single-handedly defeat those remaining futuristic looking pursuers alone by themselves. Even the previously tall and imposing silver armoured pursuer in which seemed to be far stronger than his or her own peers was proven to be completely outmatched by Levi and Stern's combined strength, after all. Because of that, Kamijō, Index and MOMO soon enough could somehow letting a small relieved sigh out when realizing that both Levi and Stern have successfully defeated their futuristic looking pursuers in which previously almost endangering their life.
"So, what brings you two here…?" enquired Kamijō after Stern placed a strong binding spell, Rubellite on those futuristic looking pursuers, completely subduing them at the same time. "Well, Dearche and Pinkette told us on how this newborn world has been facing another dangerous situation. Unfortunately Amita and Yuri are currently busy with other stuff and so Stern and I decided to check it out. However, we never guessed to run into you Tōma and I am happy to see you and Index again tee, he, he…" cheerfully answered Levi back while quickly trying to explain the reason behind her and Stern's sudden arrival in this third newborn world, in return. "We're here as per-Dearche's instruction, mister Kamijō. Since according to her, this newborn world's future would definitely ceased to exist unless we do something about it…" added Stern, as her words has definitely sunk into Kamijō, Index and MOMO's minds, afterwards.
Once again Kamijō, Index and MOMO remember on how volatile this third newborn world's peace actually is, as the ever changing nature of this aforementioned eternal reality itself has becoming the major factor of numerous conflicts and incidents that often revisit them from any supposedly forgotten or even non-existed pasts, unfortunately. Both Levi and Stern's words just now have definitely made Kamijō as well as Index and MOMO understood on how this third newborn world's future would undoubtedly cased to exist unless they have decided to do something about it. Because of that, while initially unsure about what kind of reply that he should be giving Levi and Stern with, Kamijō decided to still respond at their answer as well, in return.
"I still am not understood about this particular threat that would endanger our newborn world. Although just recently, we have actually been fighting mysterious enemies that could transform into hideous beast while strangely claiming themselves as beast hunters as well, at the same. Are these enemies related to the threat that you are referring to, I'm not sure about it Levi, Stern…" responded Kamijō back, as he decided to also letting both Levi and Stern knew over how actually confused he is, at the same time. Both Levi and Stern were only letting a small sigh out, as they turned their attention at Index and MOMO afterwards. "What do you think about it, miss Index and miss…?" asked Stern while trying to remember on whether she has previously met MOMO or not before, in the past.
"MOMO Mizrahi is my name miss Stern and miss Levi. I personally am believe that any of these aforementioned incidents that took place in this third newborn world's past would inadvertently led it towards its own future demise if no one decided to keep an eye on them. Nevertheless, I also unsure over any extend that these incidents have somehow evolved into any dangerous threats that would destroy our eternal reality's future as well, after all. Because of that, I hope you can explain me further about it, miss Stern and miss Levi…" answered MOMO back after she introduced herself at both Stern and Levi just now. "Do you have a more convincing respond Stern…? Since I don't think this Little Pinkette would be happy with any ambiguous answer that you often give…" telepathically asked Levi, as she decided to also using her question to remind Stern on how their new friend, MOMO would love to hear more detailed and accurate explanation from the answer that they give her (them) just a moment ago.
"For now it has only been my own personal speculation alone. However, I'm certain that any of these incidents were also related to the threat that would endanger this third newborn world's existence and future even further, albeit indirectly…" added Stern in her respond at MOMO's enquiry and Levi's suggestion just now. It was also when both MOMO and Levi were only nodding back at Stern, as they have somehow realize the possibility for a more dangerous threat that this particularly newborn eternal reality might be facing not so far in the future. Because of that, even if things have yet spiralled out of control for now, Kamijō, Index and MOMO were fully aware of the impending crisis that might soon befall this entire third newborn world if they failed to act vigilantly and prevent everything from escalating for even further. It was when Kamijō personally decided to once again clench his right fist while making a silent promise and resolve to do whatever he could in order to prevent this looming crisis from escalating even further and end up destroy the third newborn world's itself.
In the end, whether they like it or not, another looming threat that probably could completely destroy this entire third newborn world itself would soon arrived in front of them. Since once again, the very nature of this ever-changing newborn eternal reality itself has also becoming the main reason over how countless threats has never ceased to loom over it's very own existence, unfortunately. Nevertheless, Kamijō, Index and MOMO were also realized on how beautiful, bountiful and precious this newborn eternal reality is, after all. Because of that, no matter how seemingly dangerous the looming threat that Stern and Levi have mentioned just now, they would always do their best to face and overcome it without fail. It was Kamijō, Index and MOMO's resolve, as they were certain that all of their newfound family, friends, allies and comrade in arms would also be doing the same as well, after all.
"So, who are these pursuers anyway…? Why they try to attack Tōma, MOMO and myself…?" innocently asked Index as she was staring at the tallest pursuer in silver coloured body armour at the same time. "They are remnants of a certain twisted timeline's inhabitants that supposedly already ceased from existing. Unfortunately, they would never be the last among their kind, since as along as Creators' malice and unholy twisted-political agenda exist in this countless multiple multiverse itself, such anomalies were also keep on existing as well, without doubt…" answered Stern back before giving Index, Kamijō and MOMO a serious stare as well, in return.
To Be Continued…
