-Ch.3 A Message and A Gift-
-Ginsei Private Academy-
Kazuki Muto was about to leave his dorm when the doorbell rang. When he opened the door, he found a small cardboard box on the step. When he picked the box up, he noticed a short note had been attached to it. It read: "Hello Kazuki, this box contains a message and a gift. Do not open unless you are ready to give up your normal life. Regards, LXXIV." Kazuki stared at the note for a few minutes. The box had no return address, but the name 'LXXIV' sounded weirdly familiar. He shrugged and put the small package into his coat pocket. Little did he know that the package would pull him back into the world of Alchemy.
-Later that Night-
Kazuki and Tokiko looked at the box. It seemed harmless enough, but something was making Kazuki nervous. After Tokiko had read the note, Kazuki opened the box. The first thing inside was a letter written on heavy stationary.
"Greetings, Warrior Tokiko and Warrior Kazuki. My name is Kiyo Makanoto. I was here on a recon mission for the AR when I discovered a group of alchemical psychos called the 'New LXE.' They are extremely dangerous, and sent a tarantula homunculus after me. I'm sending this letter as a call to arms. Take the gift and help out humanity, I'm deadly serious about them being dangerous. I warned you about giving up normality."
Both Kazuki and Tokiko were speechless. Under the letter was a hexagon of grey metal. The gift had turned out to be a Kakugane. "This is not happening, it can't be." Kazuki recovered first. He, like Bravo, had believed that the homunculi were gone. The news had also impacted Tokiko.
