Prologue - No turning back now
Part 1
There is a country known as Japan. It is an island nation in Asia that was once had the second largest economy in the world. However--since 30 years ago teenagers from around the world began being summoned to alternate worlds seriously threatening its economic power. Those teenagers summoned to alternate worlds obtained technology and magical abilities that mankind's cutting-edge science and technology cannot hope to compete with.
Countries around the world were forced to carry out a policy reform.
However, to this new wave of change it was evident that Japan was half a step too slow compared to the international community.
There was no consistent policy reform and always played the fence to the international community. This carelessness of Japan forced them to pay a price.
However, under strong domestic public opinion pressure the Japanese Government have no choice but to amend its Constitution. Promote ting the status of the self-defense forces to a national army, then through COCOON planed the self governed region and constructed Babel, and so on. After barely being able keep up with the other advanced countries Japan was somehow able to get back on par.
Therefore......
"Even though we have come this far, why....."
The 108th Prime Minister of Japan - Shinya Sasagawa cautiously groans.
It's the middle of the night in the Prime Minister's official residence. Its more accurate to say, it's the top floor Prime Minister's Office.
Japan is currently facing a critical situation related to the survival of the nation.
The secret research on cultivated high-dimensional being cells were at the present time stolen by an unknown party.
At present, all technology and abilities concerning alternate worlds without exception fall under the jurisdiction of the COCOON.
Once the research on the cells of a high-dimensional beings is exposed, undoubtedly COCOON will regard this as a betrayal by Japanese Government -- that is the betrayal of the world.
"When that moment comes Cocoon and new United Nations will draft a resolution to remove Japan as a permanent member state......If that happens it might be impossible that the Japanese name on a country could disappear off the world map."
Sasagawa's speculation is not alarmist talk.
There was once a country that betrayed COCOON. Today not just the name was removed off the map, the country disappeared completely from the Earth.
Having said that, as a reward for setting up the self governed region as well as setting up Babel, COCOON allows new permanent members of the United Nations to conduct a minor amount of research on alternate world technology and abilities. The various countries are limited to the level of research that is not enough to threaten COCOON's position. COCOON typically turns a blind eye to these studies.
Unfortunately Japan is the world's leading technology and research power.
And by chance obtained a high-dimensional being's cells.
The Japanese Government saw this chance not as a misfortune but rather it is as God-given luck, and begun to research the taboo--(P cells> or <Phoenix cells>.
Now the (P cells> have been lost to JPN Babel school of COCOON -- Hikami Kyoya's hands.
"The former Government unexpectedly left such a terrible mess, I really don't know if they had head screwed on."
Sasagawa spits out his bitter feelings.
In fact, <Phoenix cell> research was not one of Sasagawa's directives.
There were several research projects that the prior Prime Minister approved that Sasagawa was not informed of. And until a few days after the laboratory being broken into and the (P cells> went missing Sasagawa did not even know of the existence research project.
But no matter how reluctant, Sasagawa still will take responsibility.
After all, he is Japan's Prime Minister and thereupon inherited the country's past politics.
"-Prime Minister."
A light knock could be heard, his secretary quietly walked into Sasagawa's office.
