When I entered the principal's office, the principal (father) seemed to be talking to Yulia Shinozaki in some way. When your father saw me enter the principal's office, he said this at the opening.

"Contact those guys right away. He said he had someone he wanted me to meet."

"... does that mean convening administrators?

"That's right. Antarctic example location, as soon as possible."

Antarctica. A place where nations once sought out 'ruins' to sleep beneath it, setting the stage for intense combat. I used to stand there too... as a pawn to just kill without being informed of the importance there.

If you can, I want to go with you. But I really can't figure out what my body is talking about.

That's where many of my former colleagues sleep. And the land that killed so many enemies with my hands. More than a decade later, I still just think about that place and my hands and feet tremble and I can't wait to be scared.

... Must be useless for me to follow.

"Okay.... treat it as an emergency call and explain the situation to all of you to some extent, okay?

"Oh, I'll take care of that area"

Aside from the regular cleaning of Antarctic ruins (...), the convening of nine [site] administrators who rarely meet face to face. Emergency authority granted to each site administrator, which is only used in the event of such a serious incident.

But this time this is... an event that certainly deserves it.

"Is it okay that Shinozaki is with you this time?

"... Yes. I'm coming with you."

She...... Shinozaki has often acted with her father since mixed with "Yuki Kurono" (...).

"As soon as we decide, we fly. Get ready for this guy."

"Okay. I'll make sure you have the right size for her."

"... please, Dr. Meliá"

Shinozaki...... no, now Kurono Kagenob's sister "Yuki Kurono" said so and bowed her head to me small.

"Yeah... but don't be impotent, okay? That place has a lot of dangerous stuff."

"Yes, I've heard a lot about it."

Shinozaki's atmosphere was a lot different than before.

The face remains the girl of the miserable, but the expression and language seem to be getting a lot more grown up. She couldn't even have a decent everyday conversation, but she's calm and talking to people.

The change will be due to the influence of "Yuki Kurono" fused with her. But it seems that the memory is only fragmented. Memories linger on her that she was nineteen. Two years before the 'case' in Antarctica.

"I have a lot to be sure of. Maybe there's something I can do because I'm who I am now."

◇ ◇ ◇

"Sa, it's cold......!? You look so thick......!! This is Antarctica......!?

I was held by Kurono Kagenob (brother) and came to Antarctica.

He is dressed in thick cold clothes for polar purposes and wears a deep hood to avoid freezing, but it is still cold. It's an extremely cold world.

"What, you don't remember? Yuki must have been here before."

"Yeah... because my memory as Yuki Kurono seems to be only fragmented"

Mixed with Yuki Kurono, I, Yulia Shinozaki, replied so. The area is bright white icebergs and just vast ice fields. It's an unfamiliar landscape to take a closer look at.

But as I looked around, I noticed a lot of discomfort.

"Brother, someone from the other side... looks like they're coming"

I still don't see any figures around. However, I can hear 'voice' in my alien [communicator of will]. The number of voices is eight.

"Oh, that's them. Don't you remember when I said it was okay?"

"... yeah"

◇ ◇ ◇

I waited awhile to rendezvous with several people.

"Is this the girl with the example of (...) mixed with Yuki Kurono?

"Oh. I don't know why, but I'm taking over his memory"

A white man in a white suit is talking to your brother somehow. He's like a foreigner, so what's the word... is that it? I get it!?

"Is that it? Do you understand the words? Hey, why??

They all talk in piecemeal terms and even though none of them are words I've ever heard... I know what they mean.

When I was confused by the situation, I was surrounded by tall men if I realized. To a man like a gray-haired bear, like an old Marine with a cigar, a man in sharp Chinese clothes with eyes.

"Hmm, I don't feel that intimidation... do you remember? I don't believe in Russia."

"Apparently, he's not even taking over that alien..."

"Kukuk, where the hell did you get that memory of me? The main body should have been in this Antarctic all along. It's weird."

"Hiccup!? Wow!?

All of a sudden I'm surrounded by long men and I get the usual screams. I hid behind your brother reflexively. People look back like big bears with gray hair.

"Hey, Chrono. What the hell is going on here?

"... I don't know. But if you let me see you in person, you might find out something."

"... how do you know what it is?

Now a beautiful pink-haired woman who was a little far away spoke to me. I feel intimidated from this person as well, although not as many as three men just now.

I'm not welcome by these people.

If you think of what "Yuki Kurono (I)" did then (...), then naturally it's also... I think it's just better if you can't point it at killing. Still, I'm scared.

But I can't be frightened all the time either. I'm not here to hide and tremble in the shadows of men.

"Wow, I'm a [Communicator]! So..."

"I see, even if you can't have a conversation with her, you mean you might know what it is to have a conversation of mind between yourself (...)"

Before I finished, the guy in the white suit who was quietly talking to your brother earlier, he guessed what he was going to say.

But this guy never has a friendly atmosphere either. I'm not going to be on the surface obviously, but I'm throwing a slightly mixed glance of hostility and vigilance over here.

"Kukukuk, are we called to think of that?"

"I wouldn't put it that way, Yu (woo). You just want a clue."

A green-haired woman in a large open chest dress looked at this one and smiled. This man is also a very beautiful woman. But you never turn a blind eye to me.

And Kurono Kagenob (brother) said gently bowing his head toward the eight people gathered there.

"I'm sorry for the trouble, but please"

"What, it's worth a try"

"Oh, never mind. After all, it has to do with all of us."

A man in an Arabic-style costume and a man in a black suit wave gently laughing.

"... please"

A little late, I'll bow my head with you. Yes, these people have us… no, because they have me personally attached to them.

◇ ◇ ◇

We went down a great hole called the 'Great Cavity' in Antarctica.

There's a place to go.

This place, called the 'Great Cavity', is a huge hole in the ice field, dozens of kilometres wide and about 2,000 meters deep.

Something seems to be emitting heat deep in the ground, and even in the extreme cold land of Antarctica, it won't freeze around here alone. The reason for that fever is unknown, but traces of a great old civilization have been found here.

An unidentified civilization that found many strange things of unknown principle and possibly went far beyond modern times. Below this is the 'ruin'.

A hidden place where an information blockade has been imposed because of its specificity and only the top levels of the world know its existence. During the Genius War, each force was to contend over it. Does that mean there's something that important?

"Yuki Kurono" said he had been in that fight too... but I don't remember that now.

We walk, slowly down the cavity. As I went down, it got warmer and warmer, and I didn't need cold clothes.

"If we get this far, you don't need that."

"Yeah. I'm leaving you here"

I was wondering that nobody wore a cold suit except me, but that seemed to mean because I have the strange tools that were in the basement here......

I meant that your brother is devising ways not to feel cold because of his alien powers, but if others want to do it, they have a number of ways.

I was surprised every time I heard the story, but I've come to understand very well that we shouldn't measure these people in common sense.

As we talked occasionally, we gradually proceeded to the central part of the cavity.

As we approached the center, the atmosphere changed just now. The floor became white stone-like material from which I could feel the warmth.

We kept going and approached a place with lots of strange statues (...) likes.

"These guys are creepy whenever you look at them. I just cleaned it."

"Hey, does' Fae (Variant) 'go like this, Chrono"

"Oh. These guys are turning around. Don't worry, I'm not moving."

We creep between the statues as if they were alive and move on to the back.

"... almost, where she (...) is. Are you ready for this?

"Yes."

A woman with green hair...... Mr. Sino speaks to me.

I nod and walk away.

I'm ahead of you...... me. Yuki Kurono's "Body".

Nature and body tension, cold sweat.

To be honest, I'm scared.

But I, I have to know.

Why did I do that (...)?

Memories of Yuki Kurono brought to me, Yulia Shinozaki, from somewhere.

But the important part is mostly missing.

It's the first time I've heard of it since I was shown footage.

The destruction I saw in the recording footage.

The Concurrent Extinction of the World's Major Cities at the End of the Genius War.

That is definitely the power of my [Gravity Operator, the Gravity Operator].

The use of that power, it's impossible.

... I don't even know how I did it.

But I did do what I did.

I have to make sure for myself. I walk away thinking so.

And I arrived in front of one woman.

There did stand my figure in my memory...... "Yuki Kurono".

That's me keeping my time frozen for ten years.

... in an instant, me shortly after I mowed hundreds of millions (...) of lives.

"It's time to move it. Ready?"

"... yeah"

"I don't know what's gonna happen. Be careful. It's dangerous. If so, don't do it right now."

"I know."

Move only a little bit of "Yuki Kurono (I)" time parked by Kagenobu Kurono (brother). In the meantime, enter 'me' and explore memories.

Hopefully, we may find something that can change this ruinous situation. But if it fails......

"I just hope it won't be a reproduction of the ruin of ten years ago,"

Pottori, and the man in that white suit, Mr. Richter, was heard.

"At that time... Chrono"

"Oh. I'll stop it as soon as it's in danger"

And time moves slowly.

The frozen expression of "Yuki Kurono" gradually revives him.

"Coming."

At the same time everything around began to vibrate. This feeling…….

"Oh, it's been a long time since I've been so scared..."

"Such power... I feel nothing but heartfelt, helpless..."

"Kukuk, [root system] is a really bullshit force, let's hope nothing happens"

- I remember this feeling very well. It feels like I was using Gravity Operator, the one who operates gravity.

"Not yet, do it"

As such, I... went inside "Yuki Kurono".
