Nogi Wakaba wa Yuusha de Aru: Chapter 2

2015-09-12T08:49:43Z

746939454:

The days of peace continue.

I used to think training everyday was pretty hard, and being at school with just the ■■ of us was kinda boring, but once you get used to it you realize it's not actually that bad.

Still, we don't know how much longer we can enjoy this period of peace.

With things as they are, I'm kinda worried about ■■

She's the most fragile out of the Shikoku heroes.

But Wakaba doesn't seem to notice it.

Wakaba is strong.

Because she's strong, she might not understand people's weaknesses.

It can't be helped.

I suppose I'll have to look after her.

Just leave it to Tama.

Hero record Sep 2018 AD

Doi Tamako record.

Chapter 2: Flower bud

August 31st 2018 AD, at the Marugame castle.

Across the window, the summer's blue sky could be seen.

Shikoku's sky looked exactly the same even after the attack. Rather, the city, passing vehicles and people, the whistling of cicadas and the beauty of the Edo sea. None of it seemed different.

After the invasion, a special tree by the name "Shinju" appeared in Shikoku, and a giant wall made of plant tissue surrounded the island. It is said that Shinju was the incarnation of the local gods, and the wall was a barrier it put up to stop the Vertex.

People are safe as long as they're inside this barrier. Peace was granted inside the confines of this tiny space...Some people started calling Shikoku "The Ark". After this disaster, comparable to great flood from the myth would pass, the world would once again be returned to the people; or so Wakaba thought was their reasoning.

(However...Things were clearly different from before...)

At the moment, the number of people passing by in town grew fewer; among them those wearing a hat or holding an umbrella stood out.

It was no countermeasure against the summer sun.

"Sky fear syndrome"

Some of the people who were present during the attack three years ago were still in a state of shock, and started feared looking up at the sky. The phenomenon was referred to as the "Sky fear syndrome". Severe cases were unable to even step outside a building.

Even now, the scars left by the Vertex's attack on the people's hearts still had not healed.

[Wa~kaba-chan]

At that moment, Hinata occupied Wakaba's entire field of vision. She looked down on her with reproachful eyes.

Wakaba was using her lap as pillow while Hinata cleaned her ears.

[There you go making that stern face again. Excess stress and strain are bad for your body. If you're gonna be like that...EI!]

[?!]

Hinata moved the cotton swab in a circular motion inside Wakaba's ear. Overwhelmed by the pleasant feeling, Wakaba felt the strength draining out of her body.

The serious look from before completely disappeared from her face; her expression changed to that of a baby being lulled to sleep by his mother.

She's had Hinata clean her ears for her for a long time and by now, she could even be called a pro at Wakaba ear-cleaning.

[There we go, all done]

As she said that, she pulled the swab out. Wakaba, feeling a tiny bit of regret that it's over, got up as well.

[Now then, it's about time to get in contact with "Nagano". Please go on ahead]

[Right]

Wakaba picked up the sword next to her, and headed for the broadcasting room.

The Marugame castle was remodeled and used as a school for Wakaba and the others. The exterior design was mostly left intact while the inside sections were slightly modified.

Only 6 students attended that school, 5 "heroes" and a single "Miko".

Heroes are endowed with the power of the local gods in order to fight off the Vertex. Wakaba was one such Hero, who awakened to her power during the invasion three years ago.

There are currently 5 heroes in Shikoku, all of which are attending this school.

A Miko is an oracle who can hear the voice of the gods. Thanks to that ability, Hinata was able to save numerous people during the attack.

Although it says "hearing the voice of the gods", it is not through common speech, but rather in the form of symbols and suggestive hints that instructions are transmitted to her.

Both the Heroes and the Miko are young girls.

Only the purest of girls are able to come in contact with the gods who detest impurity.

Wakaba was also chosen as a temporary leader for the Shikoku heroes.

She made her way into the broadcasting room, pressed the radio switch and started it up.

After a bit of static noise cleared, the calm voice of a young girl could be heard from the radio.

[...Shiratori here, speaking from Nagano. Now starting up the hero communication]

[Nogi from Kagawa here. I'll be in your care]

An area in the east southern part of the Suwa Lake in Nagano prefecture was similar to Shikoku, a place protected by a barrier where people could live. Shiratori was the only hero in charge of protecting it.

[Shiratori-san, how's the situation there?]

[Not fantastic; not that it has ever been since that day three years ago]

[...No kidding]

Wakaba strived not to sound too gloomy.

Originally, a larger area with the Suwa lake at the center was a safe zone, but due to the repeated attacks that followed during the three years, land was lost and only a portion in the east southern area of the lake could be maintained.

[For now, Maintaining the status-quo wou-...bzzzzzt......ity]

Shiratori's voice was cut.

[Sorry, It appears there was some noise]

[Right; As I was saying, maintaining the status-quo should be our priority for now. This line of communication has been getting more and more unstable lately]

[Yeah...]

[I wonder how much longer we'll be able to use it...]

As she thought about it, Wakaba felt slightly depressed. In order not to show it, she quickly changed the subject.

[Speaking of which, Shiratori-san. Isn't it about time we settled our score...]

[Yes, I myself was thinking the exact same thing. Today is the day we put an end to it...]

Shiratori gave a bold response.

<nowiki>[[</nowiki>Which of the two is superior, Udon or Soba!!]]

Both voices spoke at the same time.

[Udon is obviously superior, there is no room for comparison]

[Exactly, no comparison is needed. Soba is clearly better]

[...What foolishness. Have you even tasted Kagawa's Udon before? That mysterious feel to it, that glittering whiteness, that excquisite deliciousness that you can never get enough of...Something like Soba could never compare]

[fufufu, and have YOU ever eaten Nagano's Soba, Nogi-san? That elegant fragrance, that rich feeling of it going down your throat, that perfect combination of soup and noodles...It is superior to Udon in every way]

As the two listened to eachother's words, they replied back.

[...Well, Not only does Soba win in the taste departement, it is also good for your health. Soba contains Rutin which helps prevent atherosclerosis and various lifestyle diseases. In other words, a perfectly healthy meal]

[Hah, and here I was wondering what you were gonna say next. If we're talking about non-taste related things, then Udon is the easiest to digest out of all types of noodles. Even in the case of those suffering from exhaustion or some type of disease reducing their bodily functionalities, it can provide them with the necessary energy quickly. This here is extremely vital for a warrior. Udon could even be described as the supreme nutrient for battle.]

[....]

[....]

The two go deep in thought, planning their next rebuttal.

At that moment, the sound of the chime echoed throughout the building. Although it was summer break, the chime always rang at the exact time.

[Out of time, huh. Looks like Soba was spared]

[That is my line, Udon is the one that managed to escape with its life...The new semester starts tomorrow, so it would be best if we left communication until after classes were over]

[A fair point. Well then, until tomorrow. I pray for your safety and good luck at Nagano]

[May you be safe at Shikoku as well]

Wakaba hung up.

Her light exchanges with Shiratori were very dear to her. Since she could not leave Shikoku, this was the closest thing to the "outside" she had left. It let her feel safe knowing there was a friend out there fighting as well.

The next day.

August has ended, and the new semester started.

Even during summer break, Wakaba and the others kept coming to school for their training, so it didn't exactly feel like a "new semester" to them. The heroes and the Miko were the final hope of mankind against the Vertex, there was absolutely no way they would miss their daily training.

As usual, the earliest to arrive is Wakaba, she lightly cleaned up the classroom and prepared the chalk for the blackboard and such.

[Morning'!! Ah, You're here first again Wakaba. Just when Tama finally thought she'd be the first to make it!]

The next to arrive was Doi Tamako. She was also a Hero just like Wakaba. Tamako with her short figure entered the classroom.

And, as if hiding behind her, Iyojima Anzu followed in her steps. well, technically speaking, since she was taller than Tamako she wasn't hiding in the slightest.

It simply looked that way, because of her calm demanor compared to Tamako's lively personality. Anzu was also one of the heroes.

[Good morning, Doi, Iyojima]

[Wakaba!! Tomorrow Tama will definitely get here first!]

Tamako pointed at Wakaba, as she made her declaration. For some reason, she burned with competitive spirit towards Wakaba. Wakaba thought pleasently of her tiny posture.

[Tamacchi, you shouldn't pick up a fight first thing in the morning~]

Anzu called out to her in an attempt to appease her. Tamako then turned around and looked at her with scornful eyes.

[A~N~ZU~. What the hell is "Tamacchi"?! Tama is older than you. Call me Tamacchi-senpai!]

[I like Tamacchi better...]

Anzu let out a bitter smile.

Tamako and Wakaba were both in their second year of middle school, while Anzu was a year below. School years were all mixed up since all the heroes from Shikoku gathered in here. Tamako and Anzu were like siblings...however people's opinions often split on which was the older and which was the younger sister.

Next to arrive was Hinata.

[Good morning, everyone]

Her calm voice and graceful expression, her elegant demeanor made you doubt she was the same age as the others.

As Tamako turned around to face Hinata, she glanced at her posture -her upper half in particular- and back to her child-like body, then said in her frustration.

[Kuh...Look at you exposing those devilish lumps once again! Prepare to receive your punishment!!]

[Wait...Tamacchi-san, please stop fondling my breasts!]

[I'm not fondling them! I'm trying to tear them off!]

Tamako started massaging Hinata's bountiful chest.

Wakaba and Anzu quickly pulled the rabid Tamako away from Hinata.

[LET ME GO! Tama needs to punish those demonic things]

[Calm yourself, Doi!]

[That's right. You're still growing Tamacchi-senpai!]

[Uwaa~n! Now even Anzu is looking down on me!]

In the midst of the commotion, Koori Chikage entered the classroom. She was also a hero and 3rd year middle schooler.

[.....]

Chikage looked toward the group, then averted her eyes out of disinterest as she made her way to her seat. She wasn't very talkative and seemed to avoid interacting with other people.

Finally, right before the final chime rang, Takashima Yuuna made it to the classroom. She also was a 2nd year and a hero.

[Good morning~! Takashima Yuuna has arrived. Thank god, I'm not late!]

Yuuna exchanged greetings with everyone in the classroom, and headed for her seat beside Chikage.

[Good morning...Takashima-san]

[Morning, Gun-chan!]*

[You were...late today]

[Yeah, I was watching this martial arts program on TV yesterday, and tried mimicing and practicing the moves as I watched. I got too excited and couldn't sleep. HA! CHOP! ROUNDHOUSE KICK!]

Yuuna swinged her arm down and did a 360° kick.

[Takashima-san...You shouldn't raise your leg so high...Your underwear would be visible]

[Ah! ehehe...]

Yuuna held her skirt down while blushing.

The silent Chikage, could often be seen talking only to Yuuna. Chikage was older, but just like Tamako and Anzu they heeded no attention to the age difference and treated each other as equals.

Yuuna had a very likable personality, and got along with everyone in the class. Even Chikage who tended to build walls around herself could not turn her down.

The morning classes had started.

Although the only students at this school were heroes and a Miko, subjects were no different than a normal one. In addition, they received special training to fight off the Vertex.

As a first order of their training on this new semester, they were shown visual recordings of the battle the JDF fought against the Vertex three years ago.

In the footage, rifles and tank canons were fired at the Vertex that appeared in the city, but not only did it not hurt them, it didn't even seem to have any effect. The Vertex swarmed the tanks like ants, ate through the steel shells and devoured the people inside as if they were a meal for them.

Normal weapons were useless against the Vertex, only those that the Heroes wielded could inflict damage upon them.

Wakaba's weapon was a sword she obtained from the shrine in Izumo, three years ago. From a scientific analysis of the material, it looked no more than a sword made after the Heian period. However, the moment Wakaba shows the will to fight and takes it in her hand, the sword gets filled with divine energy.

A certain Miko called the power flowing through Wakaba's sword "Ikutachi".

The other heroes also each had a special weapon.

At the end of the footage, the homeroom teacher said.

[Only heroes have the ability to stand against the Vertex. Your power is needed.]

Wakaba and the others had seen the recordings and listened to those words numerous times before.

What exactly are Vertex?

Why is mankind being attacked?

The details were still unclear.

One thing was for certain, the fact that the Vertex were the enemy of mankind, and that the local gods were lending their powers in order to protect the people.

[In that case...Why don't those gods go fight them...]

Chikage mumbled while watching.

Tamako was the one to answer her.

[Maybe they did fight them. Remember, before the attack an earthquake or natural disaster would occur. I think that was the result of the gods going at it]

[....]

Chikage looked unsatisfied as she went silent.

Next up was combat training. Hinata alone was taken to a different place for her Miko training.

[Aah~; The sight of Wakaba-chan engrossed in her training...her sparkling sweat and flustered skin...I want to add it all to my Wakaba-chan collection...]

Hinata always says while looking disappointed, but she of course wouldn't disobey orders for such a selfish reason.

The training menu was varied, from exercises to build up stamina to basic teachings of martial arts and even zen meditation to strengthen the mind.

Ever since that day 3 years ago, Wakaba and the others haven't fought any Vertex, but eventually, in order to take the world back from them the battle can not be avoided. There was also a high possibility Shikoku would be attacked soon. Preparations for a fight were of the utmost necessity.

Morning period has ended, and it was time for lunch break. The 6 always headed to the cafeteria together.

Wakaba was the one who suggested they always ate lunch together this way; It could be a great help in improving their teamwork.

Chikage and Tamako slightly objected at first. Chikage preferred eating alone, while Tamako didn't want rules applied to her mealtime as well. But when Yuuna said "Meals always taste better when eaten together!", Tamako let out a better smile while Chikage said "If Takashima-san says so..." and both ended up agreeing.

There were adults as well in the cafeteria. The teachers in charge of the girls' education, and members of the organisation given full authority by the government to deal with the Vertex, "Taisha". "Taisha" was written with the characters for "Great Shrine"<ref>different from the yuyuyu/wasuyu taisha that's written as amnesty but their pronunication are same.</ref>, and has been publicly active ever since the start of the invasion.

Each of the girls served herself and they all gathered at a single table. They were not charged for their food.

Although it was a self-serve format, they all ended up with Udon on their plates; the toppings differed however.

[The meal after training tastes the best!]

Yuuna said with a carefree smile, as she slurped her Udon.

Chikage looked at her pleasantly.

[Hey, Anzu. Watch your manners]

Anzu was reading a book while eating, Tamako then snatched it away from her.

[Aah! But I was just getting to the good part...]

Anzu let out a sad voice. The book she was reading was a Shoujo novel aimed at mid-high schoolers. She loved reading and always had a book stuffed in her pocket.

[No buts. Finish your meal, then you can have it back]

[Fi~ne...]

Anzu gave up and went back to her Udon.

[...Still, why do we have to go through training every single say]

Tamako said grumbling.

[It's because only heroes have a chance against the Vertex...]

[I know that, Hinata. But normal middle school girls usually hang out with their friends...Or fall in love or something. That's the kind of life they should be leading, no?]

Tamako sighed to herself.

[This is an extreme emergency situation. Having our freedom slightly limitted can't be helped.]

Tamako crossed her arms, not convinced by Wakaba's answer.

[Hmmm....]

[If we refuse to cooperate, mankind will meet its doom. We have to become the spears that prot-]

[I know! I am fully aware, but still]

Tamako raise her voice, then immediately looked down and mumbled.

[...I'm sorry...]

[Tamacchi-senpai...]

Anzu grabbed the edge of Tamako's uniform and looked up to her. Her eyes, filled with anxiety.

The scene went completely silent.

Wakaba understood what Tamako was going through. She wasn't speaking out of selfishness nor discontent. She was feeling anxious. The battle against Vertex was full of danger. If it came down to it, it was uncertain if they could even survive...Rather, the probability of them losing their lives in the process was higher. Three years ago, if Hinata weren't present during the time of the battle, Wakaba might have died then and there.

(Doi probably fears for Iyojima's safety more than her own's...)

Wakaba thought as she looked at Tamako.

Iyojima Anzu wasn't particularly good at sports, and had the worst results when it came to martial arts training. In battle, she would be the highest candidate to lose her life.

The one who broke the heavy silence was Yuuna.

[Thanks for the food! It was great as always!]

She put the bowl, completely empty on the table; Yuuna then joined her hands and looked around at everyone at the table.

[What's with the long faces, everyone?]

[...Takashima...Haven't you been listening?]

[Eh, ahh...Sorry Wakaba-chan! the Udon was so good that I completely lost track of my surroundings...]

Everyone then let out a sigh.

[Eeeh?! what was that for?!]

Yuuna looked around at everyone.

[Everything is gonna be fine. We're all strong to begin with, if we all do our best we'll definitely succeed!]

She said with a smile.

After lunch, walking alone in the corridor, Wakaba whispered to Hinata.

[Perhaps...I'm not fit to be the leader]

[What makes you say that?]

[I tend to force my thoughts on everyone else, which usually causes opposition to arise disrupting the balance of the group. Someone like Takashima is much more suited for the role than I...]

[EI!]

Hinata held Wakaba in her arms, interrupting her words.

[Hi-Hinata?!]

[What are you whining about, that's so unlike you Wakaba-chan. You're doing a perfectly fine job being leader]

[...]

Hinata's words echoed through her heart. She didn't know if that were really the case.

After school, Wakaba headed to the broadcasting room. She was waiting for Shiratori to pick up, but there was no answer no matter how much she called Nagano.

As the sun went down, the call finally went through.

[Sorry....bzzzt...-san. I had som....bzzt....ake care of]

There was a lot of static. The line was unstable.

[Don't sweat it, did something happen over there?]

[This afternoon, there was a battle against the Vertex]

[...How's the damage?]

[There were no problems...bzzzt...The enemy was driven back. there were no casualities]

[I see...]

Wakaba let out a sigh of relief after hearing the noise-filled report. She only spoke to Shiratori through this radio, but she was a dear and irreplaceable friend to her. She truly was thankful that both she and Nagano were safe.

[How's the situation at Shikoku?]

[Same as always, so far no attacks. We spent the day training and attending classes]

[I s....bzzzt.....I'm relieved]

Wakaba told Shiratori about what happened during lunch today. The uneasiness everyone's feeling and the nature of her relationship with the others...She thought Shiratori might provide her with some useful advice.

[I see...I also used to have the same worries at first, but you eventually stop thinking about such things.....bzzzt.....Reality is much more heavy than thoughts, and forces us to make certain decisions]

Shiratori sounded as if those words were meant for her as well.

The days passed by without any major changes.

Wakaba and the others went to classes and received their Hero and Miko training as usual.

Once in a while, someone would display a hint of discomfort or uneasiness, but it had no impact on their daily lives.

The noise-filled calls to Nagano also continued.

[We're getting nowhere constantly arguing about Udon and Soba...bzzzt...Let's talk about a different specialty today]

[very well, we here at Marugame in Kagawa, have Honetsukitori, a dish that'll have anyone who tasted it once get addicted to it.]

[Fufufu, Nagano has Shinshuumiso whose name resounds throughout all of Japan...!]

Training at school is the same as always.

Contact with Nagano was also kept regularly.

However, there were days where the line would be so unstable, or completely unusable. The amount of static also increased which made the interchange harder and harder.

A few weeks later, the situation at Nagano became decisive.

[I'm sorry, The line....bzzzt....bad......bzzzt....]

The noise was rather high that day; from the way she spoke, a slight hint of exhaustion could be felt from Shiratori's voice.

[What's wrong? Did something happen?]

[...No, I just had to fight a rather persistent Vertex...bzzzt....ack seems to have damaged the radio...bzzzt.....might not be able to talk for a while.....bzzzzt....I'm sure you also have your fair share of worries, but do your best....bzzzt.....everything will be okay. I also thought it was an impossible task at first.....bzzzt....was able to keep on going for two more years....bzzzzt..........]

[Shiratori-san?! Can you hear me?!!]

After a long wave of noise

[...Nogi-san, the rest is in your hands]

Those were the final words before the line completely shut.

Wakaba gazed at the sea from the inner keep of the Marugame castle.

The sun was setting at the edge of the horizon. Its color changed from a crimson red to a dark purple.

[Wakaba-chan, this is where you've been]

Hinata hurried to her side.

[I've been looking for you. They said you haven't gone home yet even though it's this late...Have you been talking to Shiratori-san?]

[...The call was interrupted. I tried calling back many times, but it seems the line itself became unusable...]

[....]

Hinata was at a loss for words.

She could easily imagine what Wakaba meant by that.

[It's over...for Nagano]

Wakaba said nothing, she silently gave a nod.

She held her sword so strongly that her hand hurt.

The Vertex took yet another precious thing from Wakaba.

Suddenly, Wakaba's phone made a ringing noise, like an alarm.

The distant waves in the sea, the boats crossing the water, the cicadas' cries, the leaves swaying in the wind...All came to a stop.

Standing next to Wakaba, Hinata also seemed to be frozen in place.

[...?!]

Wakaba immediately looked at her phone. Displayed on the screen were the words "Forestization warning".

Forestization...A phenomenon that occurred the moment a Vertex stepped inside the barrier.

Wakaba learned about it in class.

Ever since Shinju put up the wall around Shikoku, it would occur in order to protect the people inside.

[They finally came...The Vertex...]

After destroying Nagano, it was now Shikoku's turn as the final shelter of mankind.

The sight in front of Wakaba's eyes was rapidly changing. The land, buildings, cars and people were covered by gigantic tree roots and ivies extending all the way to edge of the sea.

(Shiratori-san, people from Nagano...Your pain, sorrow, anger...I'll definitely make the Vertex pay the price for them. Everything is worthy of reward, that is the way of life of the Nogi.)

Wakaba drew her sword, and pointed it beyond the sea.

[I have taken over the duty of protecting mankind from Nagano. We, heroes of Shikoku will intercept the enemy atop this Marugame castle!!]

Chapter 2 - end.

This afternoon,

I peered over the Seto Inland Sea from Marugame Castle.

Each time I stand here, I renew my vow.

I swear to take back the world stolen from us.

We as heroes are the weapons to achieve that goal.

Small may our numbers be, but we must fulfill our duty.

Hero Record Aug 2018 AD

Nogi Wakaba's Record

July 30, 2018

Nogi Wakaba stood at the Kagawa Prefecture Marugame Castle atop the inner citadel stone walls, overlooking the Seto Inland Sea.

In her hand was a sword. Ever since before she could remember, Wakaba had been training in iai, and thus the weight of that sword felt quite familiar to her body.

The midsummer sunlight poured down from above, causing sweat to seep from her skin.

Cicadas were chirping busily around her.

She closed her eyes.

She still vividly remembered-- the despair and anger from that day.

* * *

July 30, 2015

Nogi Wakaba, a fifth grader at the time, was taking refuge at a shrine's kagura-den in Shimane Prefecture.

She was on a field trip from Kagawa to Shimane when an intense earthquake occurred. Earthquakes kept happening intermittently after that, and so the teachers decided it was an emergency situation and evactuated the students to the shrine, which was the shelter in the area. The number of people in the shelter, which included nearby residents, was quite high.

Wakaba's school was holding a field trip in the middle of summer break due to the number of lesson days, but it was completely unexpected that they would get caught in an emergency situation like this.

As class president, Wakaba took a roll call of her classmates and informed their homeroom teacher that all were present and accounted for. According to what she heard from the teachers, apparently, the earthquakes weren't happening just in Shimane, but everywhere throughout the country. Fissures and tsunamis were happening as a result, and damage was happening throughout Japan...

However, Wakaba's classmates seemed to actually find it exciting how this turn of events happened during their field trip. Friends were talking amongst each other and those with smartphones were checking news sites.

"You think we'll have to stay here until tomorrow?"

"Wha? But we're finally on a field trip and everything."

"Anyone have cards?"

A group of three girls was chatting amongst themselves. Wakaba looked towards them.

(I should probably warn them... no, there's no need to go that far. Letting them chat like this might actually help soften their anxiety.)

As she had that thought in mind,

"...Ah, Nogi-san's glaring at us."

"Are we being too noisy?"

"Let's quiet it down before she gets angry at us."

The girls who had been talking softened tehir voices.

(Ah... I wasn't particularly mad or anything ...Does my face really look that scary...?)

"Wah-kah-bah chan!"

Wakaba turned around as the voice called to her to see a camera flash before her eyes. It was her classmate and childhood friend, Uesato Hinata with a smartphone at the ready.

"Mmm... Wakaba-chan... you're so picturesque with that listless look on your face. The shrine building in the background is great too. That's one more picture in my treasured Wakaba-chan image collection."

"Hi~na~ta~... Don't collect photos of me! Delete it!"

"No! This image collection is my lifework!"

Hinata boldly declared something incomprehensible.

"Please don't make such a scary face. Your forehead's gonna get wrinkly, you know! Squishy squishy."

"... Could you please not press on people's foreheads with your fingers?"

"I'm just trying to loosen you up. It's because of that strict face of yours that classmates get scared of you just like what happened now."

"You... you saw that?"

Wakaba's face heated up in embarrassment.

"Now, now, Wakaba-chan, it's because you're always so serious. Ever since first grade, you've been an honor student and class president. Our classmates have this image of you being an 'iron woman'."

"Uggh..."

She was aware of it herself, but it was still a shock to hear it again.

"But... You just gotta shatter that image yourself!"

Hinata grinned and took Wakaba by the hand as she lead her back to that same group of female classmates.

"H-hey, wait!?"

"Good evening!"

Hinata ignored Wakaba's confusion as she called out to the girls. The girls were just as confused.

"Sorry about that. The truth is that Wakaba-chan wanted to join in on your conversation."

"H-Hinata, what are you--!?"

"What are you being so embarrassed about? You see, she wasn't thinking of giving you girls a warning. She was actually having a cute little inner struggle of how to join in on the conversation."

"Wha? That's not--"

When Wakaba tried to deny the story, Hinata covered Wakaba's mouth.

"Mmm! Mmm!"

The three girls were confused for a second--

But eventually that confusion seemed to blow away and they smiled.

"Hmm, that kinda changes my image of Nogi-san."

"Well, she always seems precise, and she's quite the honor student, after all"

"Yeah, yeah. I thought she was a scarier, stricter person!"

"I see what you mean-- Oh, and Wakaba-chan's unsociable, so she's at a disadvantage in that regard, I think."

It was a bizarre progression of events, but Wakaba and Hinata joined the group of three girls and talked with them. Hinata spoke with them as familiarly as one would speak with years-long friends.

She had the sociability to get along with anyone, which Wakaba lacked. Because of Wakaba's overly-serious nature, she felt a little disconnected with the rest of the class.

"But she's a super cute girl on the inside. I, Uesato Hinata, can attest to that. So please get along with her, okay?"

"C-c-c-c-cute...? What are you talking about!?"

Despite Wakaba glaring at her, Hinata didn't shy away and just said 'now now'.

"Ahahah, that's so funny. Don't worry. We're already friends with Nogi-san now."

The girls smiled and said that as they saw Wakaba and Hinata's interactions.

After they had talked for a while, Wakaba went outside the kagura-den. Though it was already evening, the July heat was still substantial, so she wanted to feel a little bit of the evening breeze.

From time immemorial, a shrine's torii was said to be a boundary to an outer world. Back in the age before people had forgotten religious piety, a shrine was treated as another world. Wakaba did not know that shrines held that meaning, but she was able to feel the place's tranquility.

When she looked up at the sky, she could see the twinkling of countless stars.

"So this is where you were, Wakaba-chan. It's getting late. Aren't you going to sleep?"

Hinata had gone outside as well and she stood beside Wakaba.

"Well, a problem could arise while we're sleeping for all we now. I thought I'd stay awake just in case."

"The teachers should be the ones to stay awake, though."

"I'm class president, so it's my duty."

"Haah~... Really, Wakaba-chan. I don't know if you're just being way too serious or what."

Hinata smiled slightly in resignation.

"So I'll stay awake with you."

"... You don't need to accompany me, you know?"

"No, it's because I'm your childhood friend. I'll always be with you."

When Hinata answered in such a clear tone of voice, Wakaba had no more forceful words to say.

"... Hinata."

"What is it?"

"Thanks for what you did back there. If you weren't around, I would've ended up distancing myself from our classmates again."

"No, no, I just don't like it when people misunderstand you, Wakaba-chan."

Hinata spoke as if she had only done the natural thing to do.

But Wakaba wasn't satisfied with just that.

"A reward for everything. That's the Nogi way of life."

That was a commandment that Wakaba's grandmother often spoke of. Wakaba loved her grandmother dearly, and so she treasured those words of hers.

"So I want to reward you for your friendship, Hinata. If there's anything you want me to do for you, then just ask.

"Well, if you insist... hmm, then how about you help me grow my treasured image collection by wearing... some sort of cosplay? ... While we're at it, how about something a little extreme..."

Hinata muttered something improper.

Perhaps Wakaba spoke too soon... she was starting to regret her decision a little.

"Well, I'll take my time to think of what I should have you do, Wakaba-chan. Anyway, for now, it'd be great for you to be more at ease when you talk to people in class. If you do, then everyone else will start to understand you and get along with you better. If you ever get nervous about talking to someone, I'll help you out just like I did now."

Hinata's words slowly sank into Wakaba's body.

(I can get along with everyone better... huh?)

Wakaba was a little detached from the class, but perhaps she herself had been unconsciously distancing herself from her classmates. Perhaps if she actually tried talking to people like they did now, it would be simple to get along with everyone.

"Ah, but then if you get really popular, you might not care about me anymore, Wakaba-chan. You'll toss me out like a woman of the past [TN: basically an ex-girlfriend, but I don't think Wakaba caught that part], won't you... yoyoyo."

"Wh-what are you talking about!? Of course I wouldn't do that! No matter what happens, you're my best friend!"

As Wakaba struggled to put together words, Hinata smiled strangely.

"It was just a joke. Oh, Wakaba-chan--"

Suddenly, the ground shook intensely.

(This... is on a completely different scale than the other tremors...!)

The tremors made it difficult to even stand. Wakaba kept her stance lowered to prevent herself from falling down. Beside her, Hinata let out a small shriek as her rear fell to the ground.

After a few dozen seconds, the tremors settled.

"That was a huge tremor, huh... Hinata, you okay?"

Wakaba held her hand out to Hinata.

But without taking her hand, Hinata just muttered with a ghostly pale look on her face.

"I'm scared..."

"Huh?"

Hinata's body was trembling slightly.

"Wa-Wakaba-chan... s... something really, really scarey is..."

She looked up to the sky as she spoke.

Thinking there was something up there, Wakaba looked up as well.

On her first look, what she saw was an ordinary starry sky.

But she was mistaken.

The countless stars in the sky squirmed as if they were drifting about on the surface of water.

At first, Wakaba thought the star-like objects were birds or something.

But their movements were irregular and it would be strange for so many birds to be flying in the sky so late at night.

And then several of those stars got bigger and bigger--

Despair fell from the sky.

One of the star-like objects fell onto the roof of the kagura-den. It definitely was not a bird at all. Its entire body was an almost unnatural white, its size far more gigantic than a human, with an ominous mouth-like organ. It appeared to be like a deep sea animal that had evolved far differently than terrestrial animals, or possibly an invertebrate that was born under imperfect conditions. In any case, it was clearly different from any living being known to mankind, and therefore, the simplest name to call it was-- a "monster".

And it wasn't alone. Two, three... several came falling from the sky in quick succession, tearing apart the kagura-den's roof and walls with their teeth and breaking in.

"What... are those things...?"

Wakaba stood stock still at the bizarre sight unraveling before her.

On unsteady feet-- Hinata stood up. A strange light imbued her eyes and hex-like words leaked from her mouth.

"--...----......----......----"

The moment Wakaba tried to ask what was wrong, people darted out from inside the kagura-den, screaming.

"Kyaaaaaaaah!!"

"Wh-wha-what are those monsters!?"

(Khh!)

Wakaba immediately rushed to the kagura-den. Hinata grabbed her by the hand.

"I'm going too."

The strange light had disappeared from Hinata's eyes, and instead, they displayed an intense will. Her tone of voice was firm as well.

Wakaba began to wonder what was with her bizarre state just a few seconds ago...? There was no time to think about that. All that mattered now was to protect their classmates for now.

Wakaba and Hinata rushed into the kagura-den. And what they saw-- was people being eaten.

The bizarre white creatures were eating the people who were too slow to escape with their mouth-like organs. Their mouths became stained red by blood and beneath their giant bodies were pieces of half-eaten people. Including the completely disfigured remains of students from Wakaba's school.

"Ah... ahh..."

A groan leaked out of Wakaba's mouth.

She couldn't believe the scene unfurling before her eyes. It felt too unreal. The friends she had been enjoyed talking to less than an hour ago were now reduced to unspeakable remains.

"Waaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!!)

Wakaba rushed towards the bizarre creatures. She was driven by rage for her murdered friends and the sense of duty to prevent any further death. As she ran, she picked up a fragment of wood that had probably broken off when the roof was destroyed, and pierced the fragment's pointed end into one of the monsters.

But... for some reason, there was no feedback.

The white giant flung Wakaba away like a bug. Her small body fell onto an altar inside the shrine. The altar broke, sending a shock and pain through Wakaba's entire body.

"Ugh... gh..."

Her body wouldn't move.

She moved just her head and saw the bizarre creatures looking her way.

The people who were quick enough to react had already fled the building, but some of the children in Wakaba's grade were paralyzed with fear.

(Run... away...)

Wakaba tried to yell that, but she could hardly even muster a whisper. The children who were too slow to run away, and Wakaba herself were all being cornered by the monsters.

But then, Hinata's voice rang out.

"Wakaba-chan, please reach out your right hand! It should be there!"

(My hand...?)

Wakaba reached out her right hand as told.

She felt it touch something.

A sword.

A sword and scabbard rusted from the passing years had been inside the broken altar.

(Why... why would a sword be here...?)

Wakaba grasped the grip and pulled it in.

Throb. Blood suddenly started pounding through her entire body.

She felt like she was on fire.

She felt like she was drowning.

And at the same time-- an unknown strength welled up inside of her as if to reconstruct her body into something else entirely.

In ancient times, there was a king of the gods of the land whose name was 《Musuu no Buki (無数の武器/Infinite Weapons)》.

He and his fellow gods tried to protect the children of their country.

Among the king's sacred treasures was a sword from the underworld.

Simple. Yet beautiful. A weapon unmatched in murderous power.

Its name-- 《Ikutachi (生大刀/The Life Force Blade)》

When she snapped back to her senses, Wakaba was standing up with that very sword in hand. She could've sworn the blade was rusted, but before she had realized it, the blade was tinged with a vibrant, almost living, brilliance.

Wakaba sheathed the sword, brought her left foot forward, and held the grip,

and stared at the enemy. She had trained in iai since childhood. Her accumulated experience moved her body naturally.

The white monster's giant body approached.

As Wakaba drew it from its sheath, her sword was light itself.

The being that entered its range was instantly split in two.

As Wakaba resheathed the sword, the split monster let out a hard-to-describe cry and vanished.

And then one by one, Wakaba cut down the onslaught of bizarre creatures, each with a single stroke of her sword. It was a mysterious sensation. The sword was easy to handle, as if it were but an extension of her arm, and her body moved as swiftly as the wind.

In the blink of an eye, all the monsters in the kagura-den were eradicated.

"Wakaba-chan! Those strange things are overflowing outside too!"

Hinata screamed that as she ran towards Wakaba.

Before they had realized it, tremendous numbers of the monsters had the kagura-den surrounded outside. The people who tried to escape began to despair at their loss of escape routes.

As Wakaba left the kagura-den, she gripped her sword.

No matter how many dozens of enemies there were, she would not falter--

"... Wh-what...?"

Something unusual happened with the monsters.

Several of them lumped together in the same place and conglomerated like clay, changing form into something even more gigantic...

Some changed into a form like a centipede.

Some changed into a form like a body surface with an arrow.

Some changed into a form like the edge of a section of body tissue, stiffening and rising up.

(... They're... evolving...?)

Perhaps they had learned that they individually could not defeat Nogi Wakaba. The means they had chosen to oppose an existence stronger than themselves was to "evolve".

The biological evolution was to begin with the simplest single celled organism, take several of those single celled organisms together to create a colony, and from colonies, complex multi-cellular organisms would arise.

What the white monsters were undergoing was truly biological evolution itself, except at an abnormal speed.

It took billions and billions of years for life on earth to evolve from single-celled organisms to multi-cellular organisms. And yet it took these monsters mere minutes.

In a certain sense, those monsters could perhaps be said to surpass all life on earth. They were beings like "gods" or "demons"--

One of the creatures that had conglomerated and increased in size shot out the arrow that its body had produced. The arrow pierced through all the people in its trajectory, wrecking the kagura-den at the end of its path. With just one strike, a third of the kagura-den crumbled to the ground.

Meanwhile, the number of the smaller monsters grew and grew, repeating the cycle of conglomerating and changing form, giving birth to countless numbers of the large monsters.

All thoughts of winning disappeared completely from Wakaba's mind. How could she win against countless numbers of enemies with unthinkable destructive force?

Right as her entire body threatened to collapse out of despair--

What supported her was her best friend.

"Please don't give up, Wakaba-chan."

"... Hinata..."

"I won't let you and everyone die, Wakaba-chan."

Hinata spoke with a resolute, and somehow confident tone.

Hinata turned to everyone there and shouted.

"Everyone follow me! I'll guide you to a safe place!"

Hinata then walked forth at an unfaltering pace. Her visage was calm and collected, so much so that it was hard to believe she was a mere 10-year-old girl.

"Hinata, where are you...?"

"Wakaba-chan, I need you to be the outrider."

The current aura about her suggested she would not take no for an answer.

"... Okay."

There was no time for hesitation. Wakaba had no choice but to trust her friend.

"Come with us if you want to live!"

With Wakaba and Hinata at the lead, other people followed, though confused. Wakaba cut down any enemies that stood in Hinata's way.

The group lead by the two reached the shrine's honden. The honden was surrounded by gates and walls, and for some reason, not a single one of the white monsters had appeared within.

"They cannot enter here."

Hinata spoke with relief in her face, as if a weight had been taken off of her shoulders.

The people who had followed Wakaba and Hinata didn't look like they could believe it, but they still sat down as if they had lost their strength.

"How... did you know this place was safe?"

Wakaba asked Hinata.

Hinata tilted her head a little to the side as if in thought as she answered.

"Hmm... a hunch, I guess."

"A-a hunch...?"

Wakaba smiled wryly. Hinata sounded a little too confident back there for just a hunch... but it was quite like Hinata to do something like that.

"But it's not like we can stay here forever, can we?"

"Right..."

Such a cramped place could only serve as temporary shelter.

"It's okay. I know a safe route from here, too."

"Another hunch, huh?"

"Yes."

Hinata nodded with a smile. Her unwavering tone of voice sounded mysteriously trustworthy to Wakaba. Perhaps Hinata had been endowed with some sort of power in the same way Wakaba had been endowed with the power to fight.

Wakaba looked at her sword-- if something were to happen, she had the power to fight.

After a short break, Wakaba and Hinata left the honden with the refugees. They proceeded under Hinata's guidance and for some reason they came across next to none of the white monsters, and when they did, Wakaba was able to eliminate them.

The group headed southeast. They walked for days and days. And yet the sun never rose during all that time. It was as if the entire world was suffering from a nightmare from which it could not awaken.

Wakaba saw every building was in ruins. The town was half submerged in water. Countless corpses that had likely been eaten by those monsters. A gigantic fire blazed endlessly beyond the horizon. Darkness and grotesque white shapes covered the sky, filling the atmosphere with the stench of death.

Wakaba was understood--

--Ahh, they've stolen our world from us.

How long have they walked?

Wakaba and the rest of the refugees reached the ocean. On the other side was the homeland, Shikoku. The Great Bridge that connected Honshu and Shikoku remained intact in all its original majesty, as if to guide the people across.

* * *

Three years later-- Nogi Wakaba was now a second year in middle school.

"Wah-kah-bah- chan~"

Wakaba snapped back to once she heard a voice from behind her.

When she turned around, she heard the sound of a camera shutter.

It was Uesato Hinata smiling with a smartphone at the ready.

"Got a picture... of a beautiful girl holding a sword while gazing at the ocean. One more for the treasured Wakaba-chan image collection."

"Hi-na-tah....!"

Wakaba reached for Hinata's smartphone, but Hinata nimbly pocketed it before she could grab it.

"Heh heh heh. Now you can't reach for it, can you?"

Hinata spoke triumphantly.

(Khh... One day I'll delete Hinata's incomprehensible image collection for sure.)

Wakaba and Hinata's relationship still hasn't changed. The two of them are best of friends.

Suddenly, Hinata put on a serious expression and turned to the sea.

"You came here again today, huh."

"... Yeah."

Three years ago on that day.

The bizarrely-shaped white monsters they saw that day-- which later came to be called "Vertexes"-- appeared all over the world and trampled humanity.

Apparently, an extremely limited number of regions-- such as parts of Nagano and Shikoku-- were able to escape the invasion. However, other areas no longer belonged to mankind, but could now be said to be under the control of the Vertexes.

In the midst of such an abnormal situation, an extraordinarily small number of girls demonstrated unique powers. Wakaba and Hinata were two of such girls. It was due to those powers that the two of them were able to save many of the people sheltered at the shrine.

However.

Many lives were lost then.

The people who could not escape from the kagura-den and were killed by the Vertexes.

Most of them were students in Wakaba's grade who came for the field trip. The classmates Wakaba made friends with that night were killed as well.

--Don't worry. We're already friends with Nogi-san now.

Wakaba still could not forget their words and their smiles.

The students who survived took a huge shock to see their friends slaughtered before their eyes. The aftereffects caused a hindrance to their daily lives. Many were still undergoing counseling.

"... Vertexes killed my friends. They stole the lives of countless innocents."

That was an unforgivable, grave sin.

A reward for everything... That's the Nogi way of life.

"I swear I'll give the Vertexes their just reward. And I'll take back the world they stole from us."

"Yes. I'll be there with you too, Wakaba-chan."

AD 2018--

They were granted their roles.

Nogi Wakaba is a "hero", one who wields divine power.

Uesato Hinata is a "priestess", one who hears divine voice.

The days of peace continue.

I used to think training everyday was pretty hard, and being at school with just the ■■ of us was kinda boring, but once you get used to it you realize it's not actually that bad.

Still, we don't know how much longer we can enjoy this period of peace.

With things as they are, I'm kinda worried about ■■

She's the most fragile out of the Shikoku heroes.

But Wakaba doesn't seem to notice it.

Wakaba is strong.

Because she's strong, she might not understand people's weaknesses.

It can't be helped.

I suppose I'll have to look after her.

Just leave it to Tama.

Hero record Sep 2018 AD

Doi Tamako record.

Chapter 2: Flower bud

August 31st 2018 AD, at the Marugame castle.

Across the window, the summer's blue sky could be seen.

Shikoku's sky looked exactly the same even after the attack. Rather, the city, passing vehicles and people, the whistling of cicadas and the beauty of the Edo sea. None of it seemed different.

After the invasion, a special tree by the name "Shinju" appeared in Shikoku, and a giant wall made of plant tissue surrounded the island. It is said that Shinju was the incarnation of the local gods, and the wall was a barrier it put up to stop the Vertex.

People are safe as long as they're inside this barrier. Peace was granted inside the confines of this tiny space...Some people started calling Shikoku "The Ark". After this disaster, comparable to great flood from the myth would pass, the world would once again be returned to the people; or so Wakaba thought was their reasoning.

(However...Things were clearly different from before...)

At the moment, the number of people passing by in town grew fewer; among them those wearing a hat or holding an umbrella stood out.

It was no countermeasure against the summer sun.

"Sky fear syndrome"

Some of the people who were present during the attack three years ago were still in a state of shock, and started feared looking up at the sky. The phenomenon was referred to as the "Sky fear syndrome". Severe cases were unable to even step outside a building.

Even now, the scars left by the Vertex's attack on the people's hearts still had not healed.

[Wa~kaba-chan]

At that moment, Hinata occupied Wakaba's entire field of vision. She looked down on her with reproachful eyes.

Wakaba was using her lap as pillow while Hinata cleaned her ears.

[There you go making that stern face again. Excess stress and strain are bad for your body. If you're gonna be like that...EI!]

[?!]

Hinata moved the cotton swab in a circular motion inside Wakaba's ear. Overwhelmed by the pleasant feeling, Wakaba felt the strength draining out of her body.

The serious look from before completely disappeared from her face; her expression changed to that of a baby being lulled to sleep by his mother.

She's had Hinata clean her ears for her for a long time and by now, she could even be called a pro at Wakaba ear-cleaning.

[There we go, all done]

As she said that, she pulled the swab out. Wakaba, feeling a tiny bit of regret that it's over, got up as well.

[Now then, it's about time to get in contact with "Nagano". Please go on ahead]

[Right]

Wakaba picked up the sword next to her, and headed for the broadcasting room.

The Marugame castle was remodeled and used as a school for Wakaba and the others. The exterior design was mostly left intact while the inside sections were slightly modified.

Only 6 students attended that school, 5 "heroes" and a single "Miko".

Heroes are endowed with the power of the local gods in order to fight off the Vertex. Wakaba was one such Hero, who awakened to her power during the invasion three years ago.

There are currently 5 heroes in Shikoku, all of which are attending this school.

A Miko is an oracle who can hear the voice of the gods. Thanks to that ability, Hinata was able to save numerous people during the attack.

Although it says "hearing the voice of the gods", it is not through common speech, but rather in the form of symbols and suggestive hints that instructions are transmitted to her.

Both the Heroes and the Miko are young girls.

Only the purest of girls are able to come in contact with the gods who detest impurity.

Wakaba was also chosen as a temporary leader for the Shikoku heroes.

She made her way into the broadcasting room, pressed the radio switch and started it up.

After a bit of static noise cleared, the calm voice of a young girl could be heard from the radio.

[...Shiratori here, speaking from Nagano. Now starting up the hero communication]

[Nogi from Kagawa here. I'll be in your care]

An area in the east southern part of the Suwa Lake in Nagano prefecture was similar to Shikoku, a place protected by a barrier where people could live. Shiratori was the only hero in charge of protecting it.

[Shiratori-san, how's the situation there?]

[Not fantastic; not that it has ever been since that day three years ago]

[...No kidding]

Wakaba strived not to sound too gloomy.

Originally, a larger area with the Suwa lake at the center was a safe zone, but due to the repeated attacks that followed during the three years, land was lost and only a portion in the east southern area of the lake could be maintained.

[For now, Maintaining the status-quo wou-...bzzzzzt......ity]

Shiratori's voice was cut.

[Sorry, It appears there was some noise]

[Right; As I was saying, maintaining the status-quo should be our priority for now. This line of communication has been getting more and more unstable lately]

[Yeah...]

[I wonder how much longer we'll be able to use it...]

As she thought about it, Wakaba felt slightly depressed. In order not to show it, she quickly changed the subject.

[Speaking of which, Shiratori-san. Isn't it about time we settled our score...]

[Yes, I myself was thinking the exact same thing. Today is the day we put an end to it...]

Shiratori gave a bold response.

[[Which of the two is superior, Udon or Soba!!]]

Both voices spoke at the same time.

[Udon is obviously superior, there is no room for comparison]

[Exactly, no comparison is needed. Soba is clearly better]

[...What foolishness. Have you even tasted Kagawa's Udon before? That mysterious feel to it, that glittering whiteness, that excquisite deliciousness that you can never get enough of...Something like Soba could never compare]

[fufufu, and have YOU ever eaten Nagano's Soba, Nogi-san? That elegant fragrance, that rich feeling of it going down your throat, that perfect combination of soup and noodles...It is superior to Udon in every way]

As the two listened to eachother's words, they replied back.

[...Well, Not only does Soba win in the taste departement, it is also good for your health. Soba contains Rutin which helps prevent atherosclerosis and various lifestyle diseases. In other words, a perfectly healthy meal]

[Hah, and here I was wondering what you were gonna say next. If we're talking about non-taste related things, then Udon is the easiest to digest out of all types of noodles. Even in the case of those suffering from exhaustion or some type of disease reducing their bodily functionalities, it can provide them with the necessary energy quickly. This here is extremely vital for a warrior. Udon could even be described as the supreme nutrient for battle.]

[....]

[....]

The two go deep in thought, planning their next rebuttal.

At that moment, the sound of the chime echoed throughout the building. Although it was summer break, the chime always rang at the exact time.

[Out of time, huh. Looks like Soba was spared]

[That is my line, Udon is the one that managed to escape with its life...The new semester starts tomorrow, so it would be best if we left communication until after classes were over]

[A fair point. Well then, until tomorrow. I pray for your safety and good luck at Nagano]

[May you be safe at Shikoku as well]

Wakaba hung up.

Her light exchanges with Shiratori were very dear to her. Since she could not leave Shikoku, this was the closest thing to the "outside" she had left. It let her feel safe knowing there was a friend out there fighting as well.

The next day.

August has ended, and the new semester started.

Even during summer break, Wakaba and the others kept coming to school for their training, so it didn't exactly feel like a "new semester" to them. The heroes and the Miko were the final hope of mankind against the Vertex, there was absolutely no way they would miss their daily training.

As usual, the earliest to arrive is Wakaba, she lightly cleaned up the classroom and prepared the chalk for the blackboard and such.

[Morning'!! Ah, You're here first again Wakaba. Just when Tama finally thought she'd be the first to make it!]

The next to arrive was Doi Tamako. She was also a Hero just like Wakaba. Tamako with her short figure entered the classroom.

And, as if hiding behind her, Iyojima Anzu followed in her steps. well, technically speaking, since she was taller than Tamako she wasn't hiding in the slightest.

It simply looked that way, because of her calm demanor compared to Tamako's lively personality. Anzu was also one of the heroes.

[Good morning, Doi, Iyojima]

[Wakaba!! Tomorrow Tama will definitely get here first!]

Tamako pointed at Wakaba, as she made her declaration. For some reason, she burned with competitive spirit towards Wakaba. Wakaba thought pleasently of her tiny posture.

[Tamacchi, you shouldn't pick up a fight first thing in the morning~]

Anzu called out to her in an attempt to appease her. Tamako then turned around and looked at her with scornful eyes.

[A~N~ZU~. What the hell is "Tamacchi"?! Tama is older than you. Call me Tamacchi-senpai!]

[I like Tamacchi better...]

Anzu let out a bitter smile.

Tamako and Wakaba were both in their second year of middle school, while Anzu was a year below. School years were all mixed up since all the heroes from Shikoku gathered in here. Tamako and Anzu were like siblings...however people's opinions often split on which was the older and which was the younger sister.

Next to arrive was Hinata.

[Good morning, everyone]

Her calm voice and graceful expression, her elegant demeanor made you doubt she was the same age as the others.

As Tamako turned around to face Hinata, she glanced at her posture -her upper half in particular- and back to her child-like body, then said in her frustration.

[Kuh...Look at you exposing those devilish lumps once again! Prepare to receive your punishment!!]

[Wait...Tamacchi-san, please stop fondling my breasts!]

[I'm not fondling them! I'm trying to tear them off!]

Tamako started massaging Hinata's bountiful chest.

Wakaba and Anzu quickly pulled the rabid Tamako away from Hinata.

[LET ME GO! Tama needs to punish those demonic things]

[Calm yourself, Doi!]

[That's right. You're still growing Tamacchi-senpai!]

[Uwaa~n! Now even Anzu is looking down on me!]

In the midst of the commotion, Koori Chikage entered the classroom. She was also a hero and 3rd year middle schooler.

[.....]

Chikage looked toward the group, then averted her eyes out of disinterest as she made her way to her seat. She wasn't very talkative and seemed to avoid interacting with other people.

Finally, right before the final chime rang, Takashima Yuuna made it to the classroom. She also was a 2nd year and a hero.

[Good morning~! Takashima Yuuna has arrived. Thank god, I'm not late!]

Yuuna exchanged greetings with everyone in the classroom, and headed for her seat beside Chikage.

[Good morning...Takashima-san]

[Morning, Gun-chan!]*

[You were...late today]

[Yeah, I was watching this martial arts program on TV yesterday, and tried mimicing and practicing the moves as I watched. I got too excited and couldn't sleep. HA! CHOP! ROUNDHOUSE KICK!]

Yuuna swinged her arm down and did a 360° kick.

[Takashima-san...You shouldn't raise your leg so high...Your underwear would be visible]

[Ah! ehehe...]

Yuuna held her skirt down while blushing.

The silent Chikage, could often be seen talking only to Yuuna. Chikage was older, but just like Tamako and Anzu they heeded no attention to the age difference and treated each other as equals.

Yuuna had a very likable personality, and got along with everyone in the class. Even Chikage who tended to build walls around herself could not turn her down.

The morning classes had started.

Although the only students at this school were heroes and a Miko, subjects were no different than a normal one. In addition, they received special training to fight off the Vertex.

As a first order of their training on this new semester, they were shown visual recordings of the battle the JDF fought against the Vertex three years ago.

In the footage, rifles and tank canons were fired at the Vertex that appeared in the city, but not only did it not hurt them, it didn't even seem to have any effect. The Vertex swarmed the tanks like ants, ate through the steel shells and devoured the people inside as if they were a meal for them.

Normal weapons were useless against the Vertex, only those that the Heroes wielded could inflict damage upon them.

Wakaba's weapon was a sword she obtained from the shrine in Izumo, three years ago. From a scientific analysis of the material, it looked no more than a sword made after the Heian period. However, the moment Wakaba shows the will to fight and takes it in her hand, the sword gets filled with divine energy.

A certain Miko called the power flowing through Wakaba's sword "Ikutachi".

The other heroes also each had a special weapon.

At the end of the footage, the homeroom teacher said.

[Only heroes have the ability to stand against the Vertex. Your power is needed.]

Wakaba and the others had seen the recordings and listened to those words numerous times before.

What exactly are Vertex?

Why is mankind being attacked?

The details were still unclear.

One thing was for certain, the fact that the Vertex were the enemy of mankind, and that the local gods were lending their powers in order to protect the people.

[In that case...Why don't those gods go fight them...]

Chikage mumbled while watching.

Tamako was the one to answer her.

[Maybe they did fight them. Remember, before the attack an earthquake or natural disaster would occur. I think that was the result of the gods going at it]

[....]

Chikage looked unsatisfied as she went silent.

Next up was combat training. Hinata alone was taken to a different place for her Miko training.

[Aah~; The sight of Wakaba-chan engrossed in her training...her sparkling sweat and flustered skin...I want to add it all to my Wakaba-chan collection...]

Hinata always says while looking disappointed, but she of course wouldn't disobey orders for such a selfish reason.

The training menu was varied, from exercises to build up stamina to basic teachings of martial arts and even zen meditation to strengthen the mind.

Ever since that day 3 years ago, Wakaba and the others haven't fought any Vertex, but eventually, in order to take the world back from them the battle can not be avoided. There was also a high possibility Shikoku would be attacked soon. Preparations for a fight were of the utmost necessity.

Morning period has ended, and it was time for lunch break. The 6 always headed to the cafeteria together.

Wakaba was the one who suggested they always ate lunch together this way; It could be a great help in improving their teamwork.

Chikage and Tamako slightly objected at first. Chikage preferred eating alone, while Tamako didn't want rules applied to her mealtime as well. But when Yuuna said "Meals always taste better when eaten together!", Tamako let out a better smile while Chikage said "If Takashima-san says so..." and both ended up agreeing.

There were adults as well in the cafeteria. The teachers in charge of the girls' education, and members of the organisation given full authority by the government to deal with the Vertex, "Taisha". "Taisha" was written with the characters for "Great Shrine", and has been publicly active ever since the start of the invasion.

Each of the girls served herself and they all gathered at a single table. They were not charged for their food.

Although it was a self-serve format, they all ended up with Udon on their plates; the toppings differed however.

[The meal after training tastes the best!]

Yuuna said with a carefree smile, as she slurped her Udon.

Chikage looked at her pleasantly.

[Hey, Anzu. Watch your manners]

Anzu was reading a book while eating, Tamako then snatched it away from her.

[Aah! But I was just getting to the good part...]

Anzu let out a sad voice. The book she was reading was a Shoujo novel aimed at mid-high schoolers. She loved reading and always had a book stuffed in her pocket.

[No buts. Finish your meal, then you can have it back]

[Fi~ne...]

Anzu gave up and went back to her Udon.

[...Still, why do we have to go through training every single say]

Tamako said grumbling.

[It's because only heroes have a chance against the Vertex...]

[I know that, Hinata. But normal middle school girls usually hang out with their friends...Or fall in love or something. That's the kind of life they should be leading, no?]

Tamako sighed to herself.

[This is an extreme emergency situation. Having our freedom slightly limitted can't be helped.]

Tamako crossed her arms, not convinced by Wakaba's answer.

[Hmmm....]

[If we refuse to cooperate, mankind will meet its doom. We have to become the spears that prot-]

[I know! I am fully aware, but still]

Tamako raise her voice, then immediately looked down and mumbled.

[...I'm sorry...]

[Tamacchi-senpai...]

Anzu grabbed the edge of Tamako's uniform and looked up to her. Her eyes, filled with anxiety.

The scene went completely silent.

Wakaba understood what Tamako was going through. She wasn't speaking out of selfishness nor discontent. She was feeling anxious. The battle against Vertex was full of danger. If it came down to it, it was uncertain if they could even survive...Rather, the probability of them losing their lives in the process was higher. Three years ago, if Hinata weren't present during the time of the battle, Wakaba might have died then and there.

(Doi probably fears for Iyojima's safety more than her own's...)

Wakaba thought as she looked at Tamako.

Iyojima Anzu wasn't particularly good at sports, and had the worst results when it came to martial arts training. In battle, she would be the highest candidate to lose her life.

The one who broke the heavy silence was Yuuna.

[Thanks for the food! It was great as always!]

She put the bowl, completely empty on the table; Yuuna then joined her hands and looked around at everyone at the table.

[What's with the long faces, everyone?]

[...Takashima...Haven't you been listening?]

[Eh, ahh...Sorry Wakaba-chan! the Udon was so good that I completely lost track of my surroundings...]

Everyone then let out a sigh.

[Eeeh?! what was that for?!]

Yuuna looked around at everyone.

[Everything is gonna be fine. We're all strong to begin with, if we all do our best we'll definitely succeed!]

She said with a smile.

After lunch, walking alone in the corridor, Wakaba whispered to Hinata.

[Perhaps...I'm not fit to be the leader]

[What makes you say that?]

[I tend to force my thoughts on everyone else, which usually causes opposition to arise disrupting the balance of the group. Someone like Takashima is much more suited for the role than I...]

[EI!]

Hinata held Wakaba in her arms, interrupting her words.

[Hi-Hinata?!]

[What are you whining about, that's so unlike you Wakaba-chan. You're doing a perfectly fine job being leader]

[...]

Hinata's words echoed through her heart. She didn't know if that were really the case.

After school, Wakaba headed to the broadcasting room. She was waiting for Shiratori to pick up, but there was no answer no matter how much she called Nagano.

As the sun went down, the call finally went through.

[Sorry....bzzzt...-san. I had som....bzzt....ake care of]

There was a lot of static. The line was unstable.

[Don't sweat it, did something happen over there?]

[This afternoon, there was a battle against the Vertex]

[...How's the damage?]

[There were no problems...bzzzt...The enemy was driven back. there were no casualities]

[I see...]

Wakaba let out a sigh of relief after hearing the noise-filled report. She only spoke to Shiratori through this radio, but she was a dear and irreplaceable friend to her. She truly was thankful that both she and Nagano were safe.

[How's the situation at Shikoku?]

[Same as always, so far no attacks. We spent the day training and attending classes]

[I s....bzzzt.....I'm relieved]

Wakaba told Shiratori about what happened during lunch today. The uneasiness everyone's feeling and the nature of her relationship with the others...She thought Shiratori might provide her with some useful advice.

[I see...I also used to have the same worries at first, but you eventually stop thinking about such things.....bzzzt.....Reality is much more heavy than thoughts, and forces us to make certain decisions]

Shiratori sounded as if those words were meant for her as well.

The days passed by without any major changes.

Wakaba and the others went to classes and received their Hero and Miko training as usual.

Once in a while, someone would display a hint of discomfort or uneasiness, but it had no impact on their daily lives.

The noise-filled calls to Nagano also continued.

[We're getting nowhere constantly arguing about Udon and Soba...bzzzt...Let's talk about a different specialty today]

[very well, we here at Marugame in Kagawa, have Honetsukitori, a dish that'll have anyone who tasted it once get addicted to it.]

[Fufufu, Nagano has Shinshuumiso whose name resounds throughout all of Japan...!]

Training at school is the same as always.

Contact with Nagano was also kept regularly.

However, there were days where the line would be so unstable, or completely unusable. The amount of static also increased which made the interchange harder and harder.

A few weeks later, the situation at Nagano became decisive.

[I'm sorry, The line....bzzzt....bad......bzzzt....]

The noise was rather high that day; from the way she spoke, a slight hint of exhaustion could be felt from Shiratori's voice.

[What's wrong? Did something happen?]

[...No, I just had to fight a rather persistent Vertex...bzzzt....ack seems to have damaged the radio...bzzzt.....might not be able to talk for a while.....bzzzzt....I'm sure you also have your fair share of worries, but do your best....bzzzt.....everything will be okay. I also thought it was an impossible task at first.....bzzzt....was able to keep on going for two more years....bzzzzt..........]

[Shiratori-san?! Can you hear me?!!]

After a long wave of noise

[...Nogi-san, the rest is in your hands]

Those were the final words before the line completely shut.

Wakaba gazed at the sea from the inner keep of the Marugame castle.

The sun was setting at the edge of the horizon. Its color changed from a crimson red to a dark purple.

[Wakaba-chan, this is where you've been]

Hinata hurried to her side.

[I've been looking for you. They said you haven't gone home yet even though it's this late...Have you been talking to Shiratori-san?]

[...The call was interrupted. I tried calling back many times, but it seems the line itself became unusable...]

[....]

Hinata was at a loss for words.

She could easily imagine what Wakaba meant by that.

[It's over...for Nagano]

Wakaba said nothing, she silently gave a nod.

She held her sword so strongly that her hand hurt.

The Vertex took yet another precious thing from Wakaba.

Suddenly, Wakaba's phone made a ringing noise, like an alarm.

The distant waves in the sea, the boats crossing the water, the cicadas' cries, the leaves swaying in the wind...All came to a stop.

Standing next to Wakaba, Hinata also seemed to be frozen in place.

[...?!]

Wakaba immediately looked at her phone. Displayed on the screen were the words "Forestization warning".

Forestization...A phenomenon that occurred the moment a Vertex stepped inside the barrier.

Wakaba learned about it in class.

Ever since Shinju put up the wall around Shikoku, it would occur in order to protect the people inside.

[They finally came...The Vertex...]

After destroying Nagano, it was now Shikoku's turn as the final shelter of mankind.

The sight in front of Wakaba's eyes was rapidly changing. The land, buildings, cars and people were covered by gigantic tree roots and ivies extending all the way to edge of the sea.

(Shiratori-san, people from Nagano...Your pain, sorrow, anger...I'll definitely make the Vertex pay the price for them. Everything is worthy of reward, that is the way of life of the Nogi.)

Wakaba drew her sword, and pointed it beyond the sea.

[I have taken over the duty of protecting mankind from Nagano. We, heroes of Shikoku will intercept the enemy atop this Marugame castle!!]

Chapter 2 - end.

==TL Note==

*The character for Koori (郡), Chikage's last name can also be pronounced Gun.
