Episode 19
~ An Esoteric Existence ~
"In my own timeline…I have wandered everywhere…and keep on believing, that hopes will always be there…"
Ilfriede opened her eyes, as she found the incoming roundhouse kick of her opponent's MiG-29 Lastochka was parried away by the incoming azure blue EF-2000 Typhoon senjutsuki armed with a pair of BWS-8 Flugelberte one-handed battle axe before the said female Eishi of the azure blue Typhoon quickly asked her beloved close best friend whether she was sustaining any injury at all. "Ah, you are just exaggerating Helga! There won't be anything bad happening to me since this customized Weiss Wolf definitely strong enough to keep me surviving in this kind of odd…" Ilfriede gave her reply sheepishly meanwhile Helga was only took another deep breath and sighed. It was when Ilfriede's pure white EF-2000 Typhoon "Weiss Wolf" began to deploy four GWS-9 assault guns simultaneously in order to support Helga against the incoming AI-controlled MiG-29 senjutsuki as well as F-16C senjutsuki used by the mysterious terrorists group.
Helga in the meantime was only remain silent as she took another deep breath and sighed. It was when she took another quick glance at Ilfriede's pure white EF-2000 Typhoon before she was only smiling alone as she remembered on how Ilfriede was quite thrilled and hysterically happy after she received the said pure white Typhoon "Weiss Wolf" from her idolized sempai that was also happens to be a vice commander of 44th Tactical Armor Battalion "Cerberus"; first lieutenant Sigelinde von Fahrenhorst. Even though Ilfriede's family crest and namesake Feulner would always associate her with the order of Dragon Knight, the fact she was chosen by Sigelinde to inherit her personal senjutsuki as well as the title of Weiss Wolf definitely made the tomboy Ilfriede very happy. As far as Helga could remember, she was proudly exclaimed the title of Weiss Wolf even after their departure to Alaska's Yukon Base, even though her surviving family as well as her best friends including Helga herself suggested Ilfriede to change her title into Weiss Drache instead, much to Ilfriede's annoyance.
"Well, it seems to be just yesterday for Ilfriede and myself to be just another fresh graduate Eishi from academy that yet have experience eight minutes of death…but before we ever realize…we already full-fledged Eishi now, veterans and specialists in this kind of new combat doctrines in where metallic steel giant reign over the entire battlefield…" once again Helga took another breath and sighed, as she finished her own inner monologue before successfully took down the said MiG-29 Lastochka in front of her. It was when she noticed an incoming transmission from Ilfriede as her younger best friend once again contacted her for some reason.
"Helga! Another group of enemies would be arriving in about ten minutes…eight AI-controlled senjutsuki were detected and all of them are F-16C Fighting Falcons…I hope Luna could handle herself just fine since we will be quite busy for a while…" Ilfriede muttered meanwhile Helga was only nodding back in agreement. She was then remembering on how Ilfriede and herself decided to stay behind in order to stall the incoming enemies meanwhile their best friend second lieutenant Lunateresia von Witzleben retreated to another hangar previously leased to 37th Security Force unit "Astraea" in order to resupplying together with Squad 207's cadets. "Don't worry Ilfriede…we just need to hold them for a bit longer and Luna definitely will come back to us together with those Eishi from Squad 207…I have strong faith for that!" as soon as Helga finished her reply, she saw the incoming eight Fighting Falcons from faraway as they entered the targeting view of her azure blue EF-2000 Typhoon.
Ilfriede in the meantime quickly nodded back in agreement over second lieutenant Helgarose von Falkenmayer's reply, as she was readying her pure white EF-2000 Typhoon senjutsuki of her in order to provide her best friend with formidable as well as tight-knit support defense. It was when the two of them once again face the incoming enemies while proving themselves as Eishi at their calibre that would definitely be able to overcome any enemies and obstacles despite to overwhelming odds of the said situation itself.
In the meantime, nearby the hangar area previously leased to 37th security force unit Astraea…
"Take this! Gigantschlag!" Vita roared, as her AEC armament identified as CW-AEC03X War Hammer were used to smash the incoming three MiG-29 Lastochka senjutsuki simultaneously, meanwhile its AI previously installed at Graf Eisen was only acknowledging Vita's command. "Jawohl!" Graf Eisen answered with his flat-tone digitised male AI-voice as the three unfortunate MiG-29 senjutsuki in front Vita was smashed down into pieces. Surprisingly none of the Eishi that were piloting those three Lastochka were killed although they were squeezed tightly within the now bended and skewed cockpit block of their respective senjutsuki, uninjured but definitely without any possible way to escape.
"Damn it! I'm starting to worry about Hayate! These terrorists will not hesitate to shoot in order to kill! Signum, what should we do?" Vita complained, as she was definitely very pissed off over the entire situation that was currently happening right in front of her and her fellow Wolkenritter members. Signum on the other hand was only remain calm as she took down the incoming F-16C Fighting Falcon with her Laevatein Tempest before replying at Vita's question just before.
"Unfortunately Vita, with the entire forces including ours were scattered in different locations within Alaska's Yukon Base…I am afraid that we could only keep on defending ourselves while hoping our friends together with our master Hayate would be fine…no, I have a strong faith that master Hayate will definitely be fine since Reinforce Zwei is with her…as well as knight Carim and sister Schach…" Signum finished her reply, as Laevatein Tempest changed its form into long sharp metallic whip before the said leader of Wolkenritter herself leaped in order to dissect the incoming four F-16C Fighting Falcons in precise control without killing any Eishi within the said Fighting Falcons' cockpits. "But, I'm still worry and I wish I can do something to be quickly on Hayate's side and fight together with her!" Vita retorted back, as she was seem dissatisfied over Signum's answer just before meanwhile Signum herself was only remain silent since she definitely understood Vita's pained heart as well.
"Vita-aneki! I agree with Signum-danna as we better do our best if we want to help meister as quickly as possible! I don't see anything that would prevent us from neutralizing the incoming enemies in this particular area as quickly as possible…since we have those Eishi from Squad 207 were also helping us!" this time around Agito decided to voice her opinion, as she kept another group of enemies' senjutsuki that were consisting of a pair of F-16C Fighting Falcons and one MiG-29 Lastochka away by using her Brennenkugel "fireball" shooting spell. Vita was only remain silent as soon as Agito's words somehow made her realize that her fellow Wolkenritter as well as the rest of Yagami family members were wishing the same thing as her. It was when the Knight of the Iron Hammer herself closed her eyes for a moment as she tried to calm herself down in order to be able to fulfil her current task on neutralizing the entire area as quickly as possible before flying toward Hayate's location in order to protect and assist her.
"Graf Eisen…please lend me your strength one more time…would it be alright with you?" as Vita made her very own sincerest wish within her heart, Graf Eisen answered affirmatively at her beloved master before the said Knight of the Iron Hammer opened her eyes and leaped at a group of enemies' senjutsuki in front of her. "Jawohl!" Graf Eisen answered, as once again Vita spun her petite figure midair and smashing four MiG-29 Lastochka senjutsuki vertically by using her very own CW-AEC03X War Hammer meanwhile Signum, Agito, Shamal and Zafira were only smiling as soon as they realized Vita finally returned back to focus herself in her current battle instead of worrying too much over other thing that she shouldn't be worrying at the moment. Silently Signum, Agito, Shamal and Zafira were also declaring their own silent promise in order to end this current battle as quickly as possible in order to help Vita on rescuing her/ their beloved master; the Queen of The Night Sky "aka" Hayate Yagami herself.
In the meantime a group of five Type-97 Fubuki senjutsuki and one XFJ-01 Shiranui Second Phase 2 in metallic white paintjob could be seen performing very well against the incoming enemy waves one after another. It was when one particular Fubuki that was armed with PB Blade in "Storm Vanguard" configuration could be seen moving closer to the metallic white Shiranui Second Phase 2 senjutsuki as its Eishi decided to open private communication channel to contact the other Eishi that was currently piloting the said white Shiranui Second Phase 2 senjutsuki near her Fubuki. "Shirogane…it's me, Mitsurugi…can you hear me?" newly commissioned cadet Meiya Mitsurugi asked, as the pilot/ Eishi of the said metallic white Shiranui Second Phase 2 himself that was being identified as first lieutenant Takeru Shirogane quickly replying back at Meiya.
"I can hear you loud and clear Mitsurugi…is there anything important in particular since you seem want to discuss it personally with me?" Takeru asked, as he swiftly took down a pair of MiG-29 Lastochka in front of him. It was when Meiya took a long deep breath and sighed before she gave her reply back at her squad leader that she was secretly falling in love with. "No, there is nothing in particularly confidential that made me contacting you on the private communication channel Shirogane…it just, I was wondering if we are doing the right thing after all…" Meiya finished her reply, as Takeru Shirogane could see the saddened expression of his beloved best friend. It was when Takeru vividly remembered on how the previously annulled loop he was forced to kill Meiya in order to fulfil his destiny as Silver Saviour that would save the original state of the Alternative world in the expense of his beloved friends in which Meiya Mitsurugi was included as well.
It was when Takeru gritted his teeth as he tried to dismiss his vivid memories that was somehow becoming fresher everytime it came into his mind for all the sudden as if the said memories itself was just happening yesterday. However, as he thought for the right answer he would gave Meiya, Takeru started to remember on how his situation at the moment was definitely and fundamentally different from the situation he experienced in his previous annulled loops in his past life. Back then he was just a second lieutenant and of course he was still contributing significantly over the birth of XM3 Operating System (OS) and the completion of 00-unit that would become the final key for Project Alternative IV's success. The price he would need to pay for his achievements however was great, too great as he started to regret his decision and hardened resolve back then. It was when Takeru secretly hope and wish that he could redo the said loop for one more last time, even if his memories would be erased, as he only wish that he would be able to fulfil his destiny as Silver Saviour by saving the world as well as his friends and people he love and cherish dearly.
"I wish I could give you a definite answer for that Meiya…I mean Mitsurugi…unfortunately I personally still searching for the said answer myself…although one thing for certain, even though we weren't doing the right thing, you would not be alone to bear any responsibility from it…since I will be there with you in order to take the said responsibility together…" Takeru finished his reply, as he sourly smiled at Meiya Mitsurugi in front of him.
Meiya on the other hand was only remain silent as she tried to keep on believing over the choice she made as well as convincing herself that she was doing the right thing. In the meantime she was always dedicating herself to the cause for protecting her country Japan as well as people she hold and cherished dearly. It wasn't an easy task for her in reality, as she would always need to come in term with her own past heritage as supreme shogun Yuuhi Koubuin's shadow. So far nobody ever figuring out about the special bond Meiya Mitsurugi was having with supreme shogun Yuuhi Koubuin with the exception of first lieutenant Takeru Shirogane, cadet Sumika Kagami and cadet Kasumi Yashiro. It was when Meiya somehow also felt a bit guilty for hiding such reality from her other best friends, although for the long run as well as for her other best friends' sake, it would be wiser to keep such truth and reality remain hidden after all.
"I see…so, you're still searching for the answer as well…" Meiya muttered back, as she made certain precise movements before her Fubuki's PB Blade gracefully slicing down the incoming F-16C Fighting Falcon in front of her into five pieces. "I'm sorry Mitsurugi…I wish I could be more helpful…" Takeru apologized, as Meiya was only shook her head before smiling gently at the legendary Silver Saviour in front of her or to be exact displayed on the small communication screen in front of her. "Please don't concern yourself with such thought Shirogane, since you are already more than being helpful for me as well as everyone else…perhaps…perhaps this time around, we will be able to break free from the chain that bind ourselves…our fate…" as soon as Meiya finished her reply, both Shirogane and herself somehow remembered over certain event that might be happening in their past life, or perhaps another situation that were proven to be reality outside and without the interference of Arca de Recluse.
…Flashback, at the other possibility of tertiary new world created after Break The World…
"I wish that I could be having a slight more power in order to change things…however unlike my eldest sister, I could never change anything…not even honouring someone that have been staking her very everything in order to protect us Japanese people and the Empire's honour and dignity…" Meiya took another deep breath and sighed, as she was somehow felt frustrated and saddened over her inability to change anything. In the meantime her trusted aide and bodyguard that was happens to be an Imperial Royal Guard Eishi in long black coat was only remain silent as he was still happens to be a good listener over Meiya's complaint.
"I'm sorry Shirogane…I should be stronger since I already made my decision as well as steeling my resolve in order to take eldest sister's place…moreover after our world transformed into another living inferno and merged with several other worlds in the progress as well…" Meiya once again apologized, as she was putting down an ornamental hairpiece she was usually wearing when she need to present herself in front of public and surviving Japanese in Seattle. In the meantime the Imperial Royal Guard Eishi in long black coat that happens to be Takeru Shirogane was only took another deep breath and sighed before he gave his reply over Meiya's complaint and apology just before. "This world have changed into a living hell Meiya…I mean supreme shogun Koubuin, as the aftermath of Operation Babylon somehow merge our living hell world with several other worlds together…" Takeru Shirogane gave his reply as well as explanation with his emotionless flat-voice tone meanwhile Meiya was only remain silent as she stared at her once beloved Takeru Shirogane's eyes in front of her.
Meiya remembered over how the was once cheerful Takeru Shirogane somehow becoming emotionless and cynical after he failed to protect those people he was holding and cherish dearly. It was when such reality somehow hurting her heart even more, as Meiya herself would never expect such grim reality would awaits her and Takeru as well as the rest of humanity not far in the future. In the end mankind might be destined to be doomed after all, as for species that only knew to hurt and destroy each other, punishment in form of extinction from mother nature herself would be proven to be an act of mercy in order to preserve the existence of the whole countless multiple multiverse itself, with humanity as its expense.
It was when Meiya found herself for wanting to cry although she was unable to do so unfortunately. Her tears might already run dry ever since she witnessed her friends left her one after another, as a living proof of the disastrous consequences behind Operation Babylon. "Chizuru, Tama, Yoroi, Ayamine…I'm sorry that I couldn't do anything…here I am…still living my life…a life of a coward and loser that couldn't even protect what I hold and cherish dearly…" Meiya was cursing her very own life, her very own existence, as she remembered on how her closest friends die one by one during Operation Babylon as part of United Nations Space Forces that was participating in deadly orbital drops missions in various BETA hives in her old world. In the meantime, the commencement of Operation Babylon in which mass bombing the remaining BETA hives by using massive amount of G-Bombs proven to be double-edged sword against the meagre number of mankind in Meiya's original world itself.
It was when the horrendous oceanic inversion phenomenon occurred, as many lost their families, friends, as well as homes before resettle themselves on what would be left standing on the dying world itself. Remembering such reality, Meiya could only feel even more ashamed over herself, as surely Takeru as well as Marimo Jinguuji already gone through something worse in comparison to her. Even her eldest sister that was currently missing surely have been gone through something worse unimaginable to Meiya as well, as she could only grit her teeth in frustration and sadness at the moment. Perhaps the existence of emotionless Imperial Royal Guard that was once known as Takeru Shirogane at the moment proven to be the only sanctuary for what left within Meiya herself.
In the end however, thanks to the failed Operation Babylon as well as certain explosion created by time-space oscillation bomb in another dimension, Break The World occurred. Perhaps the current state of this world was far beyond the peaceful perfect world she as well as Takeru always dreaming to happen, although in reality if Meiya would like to admit, at least thanks to Break The World, she would never need to shoulder her burden alone anymore. Takeru would also need not to shoulder his burden alone as well, since new friends and allies from previously another worlds beyond their reach would definitely help them in order to reach for the never ending tomorrow that seem to be a faraway fleeting dream just a while ago prior Break The World.
It was when Meiya made a silent oath as she would keep on living her life to the fullest, shouldering her very own responsibility and destiny in order to protect the remaining humanity from her old world while if possible also returning Takeru Shirogane's smile and cheerfulness that seems already long lost ever since that Day. It was when she took her eldest sister identity and legacy as well, Meiya would definitely see through everything until the very end, even though the said end would be a bitter end instead of the happy ending. Once again, it was her silent oath and promise, as Meiya definitely would fulfil it regardless.
…The end of the flashback, back to the current timeline…
(Insert Song: Never Run Away, Performed By: Yukoh Kusunoki)
"We will be able to move forward and break free from everything that chain our destinies…as we already made our promise in order to see through everything until to the very bitter end, am I right Shirogane?" Meiya asked, as she was trying to keep on smiling although tears started to swell on her eyes, failing her attempt to kept strong image in front of her beloved Takeru Shirogane. "You're right Meiya! This time around we definitely win and break free from our chained destiny, as we will also help our new friends to correct this timeline into the proper one!" Takeru on the other hand was quickly gave his affirmative reply, as he remembered over the fact he wasn't the only one that have been through everything. It was also when Meiya's determination slowly but surely becoming another new foundation that would support his renewed resolve to protect his friends as well as the brave new world he was living in together with his aforementioned friends as well.
"Hey Mitsurugi! Shirogane! How long you two are planning to have romantic date over there? We have been quite in trouble here! Would you two kindly help us?" it was Class-Rep/ Chizuru's voice that could be heard booming across the entire battle zone via her Type-97 Fubuki's open channel as both Takeru and Meiya could see Class-Rep's blue Fubuki unsheathing a pair of combat knives and took down a pair of incoming AI-controlled MiG-29 Lastochka senjutsuki in an instant. "I'm sorry Class-Rep! I was spacing out here…" Takeru apologized as his white Shiranui Second Phase 2 quickly dashed toward Chizuru's Fubuki while in the same time raining the incoming AI-controlled enemies' senjutsuki with metal rain of death from its assault support rifle.
Meiya in the meantime was only smiling alone, as she saw on how despite of numerous ordeals and hardships, her best friends were keep on doing their best in everything. It was when she saw another three Type-97 Fubuki senjutsuki were engaging another group of incoming enemies in solid formation as only experienced as well as well-trained Eishi with strong discipline could perform. Of course Meiya was also skilled and have been proofing herself in numerous battlefields as well as JIVES simulation against any possible given scenarios against the incoming wave after wave of enemies, although sometimes she would always doubting herself over whether the skill she possessed would be good enough to protect those she was hold and cherish dearly or not. In the end however, all doubt and worried seemed to be vanished away from her mind as soon as she found her renewed resolve by watching her never give up best friends that keep on fighting in order to protect her as well as how she would be doing in order to protect them in the same time as well.
Currently Meiya as well as everyone else were redoing their life after countless failed attempt in their previous loop in order to reach never ending tomorrow they always wished and longed to obtain. However this time around, Meiya knew she would definitely be able reach it together with her best friends as well as her beloved Takeru Shirogane, since they would never fight this war alone anymore. Even with Yokohama Base is no longer exist in this new timeline, things already turned out to be better for her as well as the others with the exception of this senseless terrorist attack in Alaska's Yukon Base. It was when she once again glanced at her dearest best friends' senjutsuki as well as her newfound allies from different worlds out there, Meiya welcome the incoming enemies in front of her with her Fubuki's PB Blade. It was the very proof of her resolve in order to fight once again for obtaining never ending tomorrow, as no matter what happened Meiya Mitsurugi would never regret the choice she made at the moment to keep on fighting regardless to what happened.
In the meantime, Lunateresia was just came out from the supply hangar formerly leased to 37th security force unit Astraea after she finished on resupplying her metallic marble green EF-2000 Typhoon that was in "Blast Guard" configuration similar to cadet Mikoto Yoroi's configuration on her metallic cobalt blue Fubuki senjutsuki itself. "Everyone, I'm sorry for taking quite a while for resupplying…I was also finished on activating resupply pods to be released on the area in which our allies need them the most…now, shall we finish these incoming enemies as quickly as possible before rendezvous with our friends and allies…nee…" it was when second lieutenant Lunateresia von Witzleben apologized at everyone for taking quite a while in order to resupply herself meanwhile she was also delivering good news over numerous supply pods would soon reach their beleaguered allies out there.
In the meantime, inside one underground tunnel's branch that would be connected to the command centre of Alaska's Yukon Base…
"Teana-san, are you sure we are moving to the right direction?" private elite first class Erio Mondial asked, as he was following the older female Enforcer Teana Lanster from behind. In the meantime, Erio's girlfriend that was being identified as another private elite first class Caro Ru Lushe was only remain silent as she was listening at Erio's question. "According to the map previously obtained by Cross Mirage…we are currently walking on the right direction…so don't you worry too much Erio…" Teana gave her reply back, as she was also smiling at the younger Erio meanwhile Erio himself quickly nodded back in agreement before he could be seen on readying his CW-AEC02X Strike Cannon AEC armament in metallic red and white colour. "Uhm, Teana-san…I think Erio-kun was just fearing that we would not be arriving on time in order to try to establish contact with outside and asking for reinforcements…" this time around Caro decided to voice her thought that was also supporting Erio's concern just before.
"I already take everything into consideration Caro and I believe we would still be arriving earlier than our…" it was before Teana could finish her sentence, Cross Mirage decided to gave his master warning over unidentified movement that were detected by him. "Sir, a single life signature was detected and currently moving to our direction…contact will be imminent in less than three minutes…" Cross Mirage finished his warning, as Teana quickly thanked her faithful Intelligent Device before readying her own AEC armament that was being identified as CW-AEC09X-2 Oxtongue (Ochstan) Custom. Erio and Caro in the meantime were only nodding in full understanding as they were also readying their respective AEC armaments as well. It was when a tall well-built figure could be seen appearing from the corner of the tunnel's corridor as Teana quickly aiming her Oxtongue Custom before shouted at the said incoming mysterious tall well-built figure.
"Freeze! Identify yourself!" Teana shouted, as soon enough she was feeling quite relieved deep down inside her heart as soon as she saw the said mysterious figure were raising both of his hands. Teana in the meantime was quite certain that both Erio and Caro were also find the entire situation quite relieving after they found out the said mysterious figure happens to be another human being like them and/ or at least understand the very language Teana have been spoken just before. It was when the said mysterious figure walked slowly at Teana, Erio and Caro's direction while replying back at the three of them with an old gentlemanly voice albeit a little bit sly in the same time as well.
"It was quite rude for asking someone else's name without even properly introducing yourself, and it was deeply saddened my heart to come into realization that such rude question came from a beautiful lass like yourself…" as soon as the mysterious tall and well-built man finished his reply, Teana, Erio and Caro finally could see him clearly as soon as he stopped right in front the three of them that was happen to be a middle-age tall gentleman in formal business suit attire together with its necktie and light grey coloured long coat and fedora. Even though Erio and Caro seemed to be oblivious over the mysterious middle-age ojisan in front of them, Teana was definitely well aware over the identity of the said mysterious ojisan in front of her, as she kept on pointing her Oxtongue Custom at him before replying back with cold and flat voice tone.
"I don't think it would be necessary for me to introduce myself to the shady man from Imperial Ministry of Intelligence…am I right, mister Sakon Yoroi?" Teana finished her cold reply, as both Erio and Caro definitely could feel an aura of hostility came out from Teana herself. It was when the mysterious tall and well-built ojisan that being referred as Sakon Yoroi from Imperial Ministry of Intelligence was only shrugging his shoulders before replying back in easygoing and playful voice tone similar to professor Yuuko Kouzuki when she was joking around in her non-serious conversation mode.
"Impressive! Well said deduction that I expect to be no less from professional veteran and independent Enforcer like yourself…Teana Lanster of Time-Space Administration Bureau Navy's special investigation division, although I would like to say that you are as shady or even shadier than myself miss Lanster…too bad, since you're a fine looking lass…as I wouldn't mind to introduce you to my son…eh, wait…my daughter?" Sakon Yoroi finished his reply, as he took off his fedora before bowing slightly at Teana that was seem unfazed as she was still keep on pointing her Oxtongue Custom AEC armament at him. "Teana-san is not a shady person like you ojisan! You're even more dangerous as someone would not supposedly walking around alone by himself in this underground tunnel without any bad intention!" this time around Caro was shouting at the mysterious Sakon Yoroi in front of her for all the sudden, as she couldn't take the idea of him trying to accuse Teana's occupation as an Enforcer to be a shady work.
"Thanks, Caro…" Teana telepathically thanked Caro meanwhile the younger female summoner was only nodding back in understanding before glared intently at Sakon Yoroi in front of her. It was when Sakon Yoroi couldn't help himself from laughing as both Teana and Caro were just remain silent while the latter kept her intent glare at him. "What's so funny!?" this time around Erio decided to ask as he was also aiming his Strike Cannon at Sakon Yoroi, meanwhile the shady ojisan from Imperial Ministry of Intelligence quickly winked at Erio before he gave his reply back, but not before Erio himself could feel a shivered chill all across his back after seeing such crude display of joke (perhaps) from the said mysterious ojisan in front of him. Teana and Caro were remaining unfazed, although the latter gave Erio a quick glance and somehow glaring at Sakon Yoroi even angrier than before.
"Surely I never expect the strong bond of companionship that I always heard before definitely real…Time-Space Administration Bureau surely never stop to surprise me and I started to come into realization on how and what made us mankind in this world fail to achieve victory against BETA in the first place…that's why I am laughing over our stupid existence…mister private elite first class Erio Mondial…" once again Sakon Yoroi's answer was serving as a solid testament over the vast amount of knowledge happens to be stored within the said middle-age man's head as Erio himself was left speechless over the fact that Sakon Yoroi was already knowing his identity in which include his personal information from the entire time.
"Surely, as Caro stated before…you're not happens to be having a little walk in here right…mister Yoroi?" this time around Teana once again asked the mysterious spy ojisan in front of her, meanwhile Sakon Yoroi himself was only smiling back at the younger female Enforcer in front of him before replying back. "I leave everything in your own personal deduction Enforcer Lanster…although I definitely have something that might interest you and everyone else in Time-Space Administration Bureau's Special Duty Section 6…" Sakon Yoroi was once again gave his reply back before he hand down a small microchip toward Teana that was remain unfazed, although she did accepting the said microchip and put it inside her barrier jacket's pocket.
"Now, I shall bid my farewell here…Time-Space Administration Bureau's agents! If our fate happens to be crossing path once again, let us all have a more pleasant encounter instead…adieu!" as soon as Sakon Yoroi finished his sentence and bid his farewell, he threw a tiny smoke bomb and disappeared before Teana, Erio and Caro. "Is he ninja or something?" Erio asked in disbelief meanwhile Teana and Caro were only remain silent before the latter approached her beloved boyfriend and replying back. "Don't worry Erio-kun! Next time this weird ojisan appeared in front of us again, I will definitely protect you from his lecherous wink!" Caro replied back with strong determination shown on her eyes meanwhile Erio could be seen laughing sheepishly before thanked his girlfriend for her unyielding support on his side ever since the day of Lost Property Riot Force 6 a while back in the past.
Teana on the other hand was only remain silent as she took out the small microchip from her barrier jacket's pocket and stared at it intently. "Sir, is there anything that might concern your mind at the moment?" Cross Mirage asked, as Teana was only smiling back before she shook her head gently and replying back at her faithful Intelligent Device. "There is nothing to worry at the moment Cross Mirage, since our current primary objective is to reach command centre within the designated time frame…after that, we can worry about the content of this microchip later on…" Teana gave her reply, meanwhile Cross Mirage quickly replying back in agreement as well. "Likewise I agree with your decision sir…" it was after Cross Mirage finished his reply, Teana nodded back in agreement before she turned her attention at both Erio and Caro that were already waiting for her.
"Sorry to keep you waiting Erio…Caro…shall we get going then?" it was when both Erio and Caro nodded in agreement as they followed Teana in order for resuming their current mission. It was when the terrorist incident that was later on well famously known as Yukon Incident soon will be reaching it climatic conclusion.
Although unknown by Teana, Erio, Caro and the rest of people that were getting involved in the aforementioned incident, a dark web of conspiracy started to trap them within the spiralled endless struggle between life and death. It was when the true face of evil will soon be revealed across the countless multiple multiverse out there and the true final battle would also finally begin.
To Be Continued…
