Each and Every One of you

 

The sound of silence echoed throughout the plane. Anice was energetically talking a while ago, but she soon got tired and went for a nap. Niina was already drinking beer before the plane took off, and passed out mid-flight. Neito decided to review the intelligence gathered before they arrive in the special region.

[Tsurugi-san, could you pass me the files?]

[Boss…]

[Oh, sorry.] Tsurugi, pass me the files.]

[Understood.]

As Tsurugi passed the files, Neito started reading them.

Special Region: Okinawa

There are two reasons why Okinawa was considered as a “Special Region”.

One: There was an existing evil force besides Metallica that existed in the island.

They were Non-human creatures called “The Santana”. Though lacking Intel on them, they were generally living the sea bed and feed on human souls.

Neito didn’t know if humans have souls, but the population in Okinawa was attacked several times throughout the years. Those who were attacked ended up in a state of coma.

The Santana doesn’t choose which individual to feast on. In other words, whether you are a normal civilian, a Guardian, or a Metallica member, they’ll still come at you. Further Intel has revealed that the stronger the individual is, the more likely they are to come at you. This has been a thorn on Metallica’s side since squads sent over are constantly being ambushed buy the Santana.

As a result, Metallica cannot fully exercise their power in the island of Okinawa.

Two: A strong Guardian is situated in the island. He is identified by the name “Ramone”,

He doesn’t leave the island and is said to get his powers from the sun and sea. Intel has confirmed that his capabilities were real. They identified it as an extension on “Shamanism” to a certain degree. With unlimited energy supply, he is able to exercise dominance over the island.

Ramone’s objective is to protect the people in the island. This of course, includes protecting them from Metallica.

Metallica’s situation is further complicated by the Guardian situated in the island in addition to dealing with the Santana.

Metallica’s usual tactics were to infiltrate, sabotage and overwhelm the enemy in surprise. They were not able to exercise those tactics in the special region.

Because of the reasons mentioned above, Metallica has dubbed Okinawa as a “Special Region”.

[Fuu… This is quite troublesome.]

Neito reevaluated the dangers imposed in the special region.

[That’s not like you… Our mission in Okinawa is just to secure a foothold in the region. I doubt it would be really difficult.]

[Yeah, If that’s the only case.]

[Which means?]

[Tsurugi, I don’t plan on just securing a foothold in the region.]

[…. I understand now. As expected of you. I agree with your idea.]

Why end the mission on just securing a foothold in the region? I’ll crush both Ramone and the Santana. That should spread Metallica’s influence in the nearby areas too. It may be called a special region, but in the end, it’s just an island. If I were to conquer the world, this island should be nothing.

[Tsurugi, do you have battle experience with the Santana?]

[Yes. I fought with them twice.]

[Are they strong?]

[They are certainly strong. I was risking my life when I fought with them.]

[If I were to go on head to head with one of them, do you think I could win?]

[You boss? Please stop joking. You would last for about a minute. Niina would only last ten seconds.]

[That’s quite unexpected… You’re making me scared now. I’m about to cry.]

Of course, they were aiming to conquer Okinawa. What’s scary is scary. He wanted to take a leak.

If that’s how strong the Santana are, Ramone who fought with them was much more impressive then. Neito’s feet started shaking.

[You really are a mysterious person. When an opportunity presents itself, you become a totally different person. Other than that time, you’re the opposite.]

[I can’t help it… When we arrive at the island, can you train me up a bit?]

[Understood.]

[I just can’t get my finger around it.]

[Metallica’s plane regulations are quite normal. How about it? I’m not Niina, but would you care to accompany me for a drink?]

Tsurugi brought out a jar of sake.

[Aa, I’ll join you.]

As they started drinking, Tsurugi kept silent all the time. Neito began to feel sorry for not starting a conversation.

[Nate…Mmnnmnn~]

[What is it….? She’s sleep talking?]

[U­mmm~…Love you… Introduce you…Papa…]

For some reason Anice had a terrifying plan while sleep talking.

[Fu~]

[Now don’t you dare laugh]

[Sorry boss. But this is actually good for you. Someone like Anice-san fell for you. I’m certain why she’s into you]

Neito thought of protesting, it wasn’t like Tsurugi was gay, but he knew there was something people found in him that made them think that way.

[…Each and every one of you…]

Neito didn’t hope too much. The day he would be it would be the day he would die. Until then, he’ll live his life the best he can.

It turns out Maki would be participating in this year’s humanoid construction competition this year and Ikeno was reassigned to the Global Level Management section.

I can’t lose to them…

Neito drank all the sake in his cup all at once, and held out his cup to Tsurugi for another round.
