「So this is my Identification Card...」
Val held up a thin card that was black in color in his hand. The information it had listed were the general things found. It just had the basic few such as name, race, Zone, and a rank assigned to it.
"Don't lose it. Unlike your temporary member card, you'll need that if you ever want to visit a Zone. Unregistered ID's will die or be blown away on the spot by the barriers that surround each Zone."
Along with the registry of Val as a tempory member for the Mission, Gemi had suggested him to make an ID. She had also had Felicia sign up as one.
When the clerk handling the registration heard that his race was a Dragon, she fully recommended the idea. Apparently, it was due to Dragons being a very powerful existence and that one of the major bloodlines was one of the organization's backers.
They wouldn't intensely monitor him or anything. It was just to keep him in the database.
He asked the clerk if it was possible to get ones for his family as well and as long as they had a human-like appearance, it was fine.
Monsters that had intelligence could also register for one but they needed a bodyguard since they could be killed because they were a foreign being or something. Due to that reason, no monster is allowed to enter the〈Avant Zone〉
Any other one is fine. If they wanted to go to the〈Times Zone〉, they could just say that because of their ability they wound up as such. They could get killed if they went to the〈Huaxia Zone〉but intelligent monsters there were actually treated quite well.
A lot of humans from the other Zones haven't gone and registered for one mostly out of fear of the unknown and an event that happened at the very start of the〈Collapse.〉
"So other people can even access Zones they wouldn't normally be able to with that card?"
It was Felicia's first time hearing such information. She had usually just teleported straight past the barriers. Gemi had offered that she should register one along with Eva but she decided to do so at a later time.
"No, they'll have to submit an application form to be approved by the Justice Department and the Foreign Relations Department."
"This is to ensure that they don't have a criminal record and to check if they're mentally stable, we conduct a test on them in the Medical Department."
After saying that to Felicia, Gemi turned to Val.
"And Vale."
That was the nickname that Gemi decided to give Val. Mainly because she just thought of Val already being taken and at the same time thought that Valerion was too long to say and she didn't want to have to keep on calling him Mr. Dragon.
「Yeah?」
"You're pretty lucky. Since you're a Dragon, you won't have to wear an〈Entrance Collar〉"
「What's that?」
"This is my first time hearing of this as well."
"It's something that a Visitor wears so they can be permitted entrance to the Zone. It only works for the Zone that you applied to go to though."
Mechanica's could freely cross through any Zone so they wouldn't need something like a Collar. It was basically something that allowed them access.
But a few species could also enter the other Zones but they couldn't freely use their powers and wreak havoc or whatever.
Val could cross over to the〈Huaxia Zone〉because Dragons existed there, although a different kind. He could also cross over to the〈Times Zone〉but only one of his abilities would be considered an actual〈ESP〉by the Zone.
It was hypothesized that he could technically cross over to the〈Avant Zone〉since it might consider him another alien species. But he still wouldn't be able to freely use his magic powers since that doesn't exist in the〈Avant Zone〉
His lightning magic might work though.
But then what makes a Mechanica so special again?
They can use whichever power they have freely in whichever Zone.
By the time Gemi had finished explaining this, they had already gone back to Cole's office.
Cole and Mini were already there and were sorting the items they brought on the table. There also seemed to be some clothes they brought in as well but they didn't know what was in it because they were still packaged.
"Ah, you're already finished?"
"We finished up quite quickly. Registering the items didn't take too long. How about you three?"
"We also got an ID for Vale."
"Vale? Mr. Dragon, can I call you Rion?"
「Sure.」
Val didn't mind the different nicknames he had. He also thought that it was troublesome to keep on saying his name over and over again. HIs father's name was a lot more troublesome. Gemi went to sit beside Mini while Felicia went over to Cole.
Val went to the office chair and started carelessly spinning around.
"What are these things?"
"Bombs. We either start a terrorist attack and divert everyone's attention. The disturbance would definitely bring the attention of the overseer of the Tournament. Val will deal with him while we split into two groups and kidnap the ones planning to instigate a war."
After Cole said this, Mini stepped in and started to explain their plan.
"So, our plan is to infiltrate the tournament and probably accidentally destroy it in the process because face it. You know it's gonna end that way."
"As for how to arrive at the Tournament and to enter, Cole, explain."
Cole stopped checking the bombs and stood up and picked up the packages of clothes.
"We'll disguise Felicia as a rich traveling young miss of an affluent family. Mini had already sent a message about receiving a family seal for the duration of the mission and many were happy to oblige."
"Me, Mini will act as her bodyguard while Gemi shall pretend to be her maid. As for Val, he can either pretend to be a tamed beast or be a bodyguard along with us. It depends on him."
As Cole said such, he brought out the clothes in each package. A few were obviously made with extreme care and were extremely beautiful. The bodyguard costumes were black in color and had red accents. The servant outfit was a plain light green.
「Being in dragon form is a lot more relaxing so I'll take that. I'll just decrease my size a bit.」
Val stopped spinning in the swivel chair and rested leaned his head back. He was really carefree. Most Dragons in the〈Fantasia Zone〉were like that. A few were overly serious.
Cole had expected such and had only prepared two sets of bodyguard uniforms. Gemi was fine with being a servant girl. She could easily pretend to be someone from an affluent family but she also thought that Felicia was more suited for the role.
"Eh?"
Felicia's eyes turned into dots as she heard this. She had thought she would just transport them to the Zone. She couldn't transport them straight into the Tournament venue since she didn't know where exactly it was and it was still some weeks away.
When Vla, Gemi, and Mini saw the blank expression on Felicia's face, they all ended up thinking of the same thing.
'Ulterior motive detected.'
'I have a feeling that this dude has an ulterior motive.'
'Does Col want to see Felicia dressed up that much?'
But although they thought that, when considering the party compostion, she was the only option.
"W-wait a second, are you sure about this? And why me?"
Felicia finally snapped out of her daze and started to vehemently question Cole's decision. She stood up and was frantically moving her hands around.
"Because Felicia looks the most Asian out of us. Although the〈Huaxia Zone〉also has a variety of colors. Black hair is valued more since all the prestigious clans and the emperors have had black hair."
'Well my mother is Zhonghuan/Chinese but the twins look pretty Asian too!'
As she thought to herself, she glanced towards the twins for a second. And then, as if being struck with a great idea, she pointed at Gemi.
"Then can't it be Gemi or something?"
"Eh, me?"
'I'm too lazy for that.'
Even if she was offered a million gold bars, she wouldn't do that. Wair, on second thought, seh probably would. But she inside that soemthing like that probably wouldn't happen.
"Longer hair is appreciated by society there."
"Extensions!"
"Blue hair."
"Dye it then!"
"Too much trouble. She's also too young."
It was as if she didn't hear the things Cole said the first time he explained why she was chosen. The audience just stared at the spectacle happening before them. The back and forth exchange continued for a while before Felicia said this.
"You just want to see me all dressed up, right?"
Cole paused for a bit. He hadn't thought of that. He had simply focused on formulating a plan for the upcoming mission. After thinking for a while, he responded with.
"While I would enjoy such a sight, that's just a bonus."
"You--"
"Felicia."
"!"
Not letting Felicia finishe her sentence, Cole sclosed the distance before them and put both of his hands on her shoulders and grasped them tightly.
'Ara, ara.'
'Ara, ara.'
'Ara, ara.'
The audience couldn't but help and think such. But they were all wise enough not to say anything out loud that could ruin the atmosphere. Felicia's cheeks blushed slightly due to the intimate position they were in.
Since she had already gotten used to Cole's face, she usually forgot on how much of a beauty he was.
Spotless white skin and long eyelashes that were slanted upwards that gave him a fierce yet noble look. Natural double eyelids, shimmering silver hair. And other stuff that author is too lazy to describe because this isn't a romance novel.
"I'm relying on you."
"Kuh!"
He said with a serious voice. When Felicia heard his words, she couldn't help but let out a cry. She liked the feeling of being relied on but not too much or else that would just be a pian in the butt.
"And you can freely visit all the tourist spots on the way. It just happens that they all happen to be on the same route."
As soon as he said that, Felicia immediately seemed to transform and no longer held any qualms about having to act like a fancy young miss.
With that, no one else seemed to hold anymore objections about the plan.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
