The Humanity Protection Agency.
After the great war between the 5 races, it was an institute made in case anything irregular happens against the other races.
If there is a irregularity in the graves.
If the other 4 races escapes the graves and attacks.
If the great war happens once again.
In preparation for these, infrastructures such as roads, rails and invention of highly destructive weapons. All of these are undertaken by the Humanity Protection Agency (HPA) in the stead of every country in the world. As well as the military force. The citizens are required to join compulsory military service for 2 years, where they will be trained in the HPA.
It is fair to say that nobody in the military is taking it up seriously.
"Aa, what a pain. I'm gonna take a break!"
HPA Training Grounds.
In the edge of it, Saki and Athrun in their running wear were sitting down.
"Our opponent is a machine doll, you know? Punching it will only hurt our own hands while not avoiding its punches would result in a bone fracture in worst cases. No way am I doing it! It's useless, useless I say."
"…"
"Kai, are you listening?"
"No point in complaining since the Genjuu race are similar to it."
In front of Kai is a dragon-like machine doll with 3 meters in height.
If by any chance the Genjuus escaped the graveyard…
Thus the training to oppose them, but as Saki said it 'is just a waste of time' is what most of the rest thinks as well.
Since there is no way we can win against them.
Through the records of the great war, the skin surface of the top within the Genjuus, dragons, did not even take a single scratch from getting hit by a cannon bullet.
"It may seem useless to do this."
In contrast to his words, Kai slipped underneath the dragon doll.
"Hold on, Kai?!" Saki's shout.
If by any chance he is stomped by, all the bones in his body would fracture however so Kai slipped beneath its big feet and stanced.
ARTS, an anti-four species technique that is taught by the HPA.
But even with Kai's strike, nothing happened to the machine dragon.
"… No effect huh."
"What are you doing Kai?! You will die if you get stomped on! Even though it's not permissible for self-training with a Genjuu machine doll without any supervision from the instructors."
"It's useless to do it without the resolve of so."
"….No no, Kai, I think you are born in the wrong era."
Saki who held the water bottle by her lips smiled bitterly.
Half of what she meant was out of admiration while the other was alike the amazement of when one is looking at a rare species of animal in the zoo.
"Don't you think so, Athrun?"
"…Don't.. talk.. to me.. The wounds are resounding."
Behind the bench Saki was seating was an unmoving lad crouching his body.
As he had trained against another machine doll and got kicked in the solar plexus and couldn't stand back up.
"Well, ignoring Athrun, even the instructors said that Kai should've been born in the era of the great war. You could even carve your name down the history instead of Cid."
"I am not such a person. I just didn't want to let my guard down by training."
Kai, who replied naturally while looking up towards the machine dragon.
A hundred years back, there was a person ruling above each of the four species of Akuma, Banshin, Genjuu and Seirei races.
Chief, Boss, Governor, etc. There were different terms to describe the head of each race, but in the human language there was a specific term to describe those 4 individuals who stood on the top.
The four heroes.
The hero of the Akuma, The Dark Empress Vanessa.
The hero of the Banshin, Saint Alfreya
The hero of the Genjuu, Fang King Rath=Ie
The hero of the Seirei, Lord of Spirits Rikugenkyouko
The predicament the four heroes showed due to their unchallenging great strength.
But then appeared one, the hero of humans who would stand against them in the great war.
The hero of humans, The Prophet Cid.
"The Prophet Cid, huh." As Saki who looked up to the ceiling.
"With a shining sword which was out of the world, he then defeated the heroes of the other four species and sealed the four races within the graveyard… Or so was the anecdote left."
"It was a fact that the man called Cid existed a hundred years ago. There is even photo evidence of him."
A man clad in a robe.
Kai had repeated saw the photo of what was said to be that person within documents.
"But you know, Kai. Even the historians are doubting the story of Cid."
Saki shrugged her shoulders.
There were theories that the hero, The Prophet Cid, does not exist.
Firstly, the Shining Sword, did not remain. Secondly, the records of Cid defeating the four heroes also did not remain.
"There was no proof that Cid was the one who defeated the four heroes, since there was no photographic nor videographic records, and no remains of the sword that Cid himself was using."
"…Yeah."
There was no records to proof it.
The same situation as the incident where Kai fell down the Akuma's graveyard.
Unusually, there was not a single photo during the great war era.
It was unnatural that there was no figure of Cid fighting against the four heroes, even if it's a hundred years ago. Hence, few believe of the story.
"And so, even if the person called Cid exists, he probably was not an activist representing humans. How about so, Kai?"
"I too thought of that, but…" as he sweep off the sweat by his front bangs
"Isn't it fine to let that be as so?"
"Well, changing the topic…Hey Athrun, get up."
"…Urgh?!"
Saki who mercilessly stomped on her colleague.
"As I previously talked to you about, what of the celebration for Jeanne's promotion? We really have no more time."
"Huh? Celebrating her promotion with giving a bouquet of flowers would do right?"
Athrun who finally got up then sat on the bench.
"Isn't a cliché like this fine as well."
"No can do. Since it's for Jeanne. Being a scholarship student, she gets bouquets annually for the recognition. Giving her another bouquet now would be meaningless, right Kai? Even you think so?"
"….."
"Hm? Heeeey. Kai??"
Kai who was facing Saki backwards, the communication device in his hand then rang.
"…Jeanne?"
The contact showed in the device was that of his childhood friend. Alike Saki and Athrun, she too is one of the military student and a colleague.
"Hm? What's up with Jeanne?"
"Hmhm? Nothing here on mine, so only Kai's?"
Both of them then stood up. Wanting to know the contents of Jeanne's message they then sneaked a peek on Kai's device.
'To Kai,
You are free tomorrow right? 10 in the morning, in front of the cat statue by the 9th terminal!
But keep this a secret from Saki and Athrun okay?'
"……."
Please give me a moment. Even if you say secret, beside me (Kai) are both of them excitedly sneaking a peek on my device.
"Kai? What did Jeanne say?"
"Even I didn't get contacted. This is rare, a secret from me and Saki… Hey Kai, ain't you in a good relationship with Jeanne."
"….Hold it." He stopped them both, holding out a hand.
"It was my mistake, there what not from Jeanne."
"Oho? Then what was that ringtone what we heard?"
"Making up a lie you usually don't. Is that message something special, dear Kai-kun?"
Saki smirking, and Athrun's ghastly expression. They then approached, hoping to see the contents in the device.
"…Speaking of which."
As Kai grasped the device firmly and turned his back from the two, and dashed away in full force.
"I haven't done my running yet. Gonna go for a 10km run."
"Aaaa, Oi Wait up, damnit!"
"Anyone! Help me catch Kai! He made a grave sin! Keeping secrets and planning something devious with Jeanne!"
"That's a misunderstanding! ….Gah, I just wanted to train seriously"
Jeanne… Please don't use the HPA's com-device for private reasons…
As he screamed so within his heart, he franticly ran away from his two colleagues chasing him down.
