Prologue - The future cannot be avoided

Part 1

It was an eerily cold silence.

At night the JPN Babel Student Council room was like a silent world.

In the darkness a silhouette of a person is cast because of a single light source.

The superfluous light fills the room from a square liquid crystal display.

It was JPN Babel's student council president also Japans Cocoon representative--Hikami Kyoya personal computer. Real-time updates were constantly appearing on the screen.

It was a current status of the self-governed region established in Japan for the people who had returned from the different worlds.

Top of JPN Babel is Kyoya, who is responsible for co-ordinating all matters in self-governed region.

Therefore Kyoya must compile the various information related to the self-governed region.

Kyoya was watching the monitor and quietly deepened his smile.

Also muttered:

"Moving again, and I believe he......"

Part 2

Hikami Kyoya is examining the gathered intelligence.

He he is primarily looking at a series of events that took place the in evening the day before yesterday to early morning yesterday.

Those are the records of self-governed region -- a huge artificial island that is floating in Tokyo Bay.

That night, Kyoya request some kind of "substance" to be transported to the self-governed region.

The substance has manifestation in this world, a lower dimension - a substance from high-dimensional life form - the Japanese Government under the utmost secrecy, researched and cultured part of its cells.

Kyoya had already obtained them --

or the <Phoenix Cells>. He even has to steal to get them. However, the Japanese government can not condemn Kyoya's act. After all, COCOON is responsible for co-ordination and management of all technology and abilities learned from alternate words. He was named a permanent member of the new United Nations - the G7 - although COCOON assisted in establishing self-governed region and Babel in Japan. The Japanese Government isn't allowed to research or develop different world technology. Therefore the Japan Government's experiment undoubtedly violated the rules set forth by COCOON. Basically the <Phoenix Cells> shouldn't exist. Even if they were stolen, it cannot be made public. "Can't let the cat out of bag, they still have to continue keeping it a secret ... ..." In order to transport the <Phoenix Cells> at any cost, beforehand Kyoya arranged several decoys to be attacked by the enemy. However many decoys were destroyed – furthermore to maintain the utmost secrecy, only a few people knew that they were decoys to begin with.
