================================================================================================
Each of this army personnel immediately stood up from their seats, and slung their assault rifles on their backs, without any slings. They walked swiftly toward the open end of the cargo door, then pulled a steel rope from the reel that was attached to the ceiling of the plane near the cargo door. They then hooked the steel ropes in place to attach them to the armor on their bodies. Some of these soldiers as well as Raymond then jumped using the existing steel rope, breaking through the glass ceiling here, making it shattered.
Each of them then landed steadily on the floor, not far from where Hardy had been tied up. Every one of these soldiers was immediately on alert with their assault rifles, except for Raymond who kept it slung over his back, and looks normal. Raymond's attention was immediately drawn to Hardy who was tied to a chair with a slightly irritated expression on his face, Raymond then walked over to Hardy. Seeing Hardy's expression, Raymond immediately realized that the thing that had made all of this had left or something. Raymond said to his unit
"Free the others who are tied except Hardy"
Hearing this, giving one of his comrades an astonished expression
“Understood sir”
He then turned towards his other comrades to inform them. Raymond walked over to Hardy who was tied to a chair with an astonished expression
"Before I untie you, can you tell me what the hell happened to you?"
Still having an irritated expression, Hardy replied
“No need to get into it, what we need to deal with now is one of the observation subjects that came to this place, Erdyn Zherjhyl”
Raymond looked surprised, he then looked around for a moment and then looked back at Hardy
"Don't tell me he came here alone and beat up all of you?"
Hardy replied
"Why do you think I look upset?"
Raymond appeared to already expected this, he then answered briefly
"Good grief…"
Raymond then untied Hardy, which turned out to be tighter than it looked, so Hardy looked a little in pain when Raymond untied the rope. Raymond said
"I and all of my units will try to find him, as part of the Security Protocol"
Just about to act, Raymond was stopped by Hardy's words
“I don't think it's necessary”
Raymond looked at Hardy again with a curious expression. Hardy continued talking
“He said if we want to deal with him next, meet him in person”
Raymond looked surprised
“How dare he say that? All these things don't bother him in the least?”
Hardy looked a little lethargic
"I don't know, he even looked interested…"
Hardy looked at Raymond with a serious expression
"It's best not to provoke anyone who is the subject of our observation. Trust me, treating them like enemies is a very bad idea, and putting them as enemies is the last thing you want to do…”
Hardy said as if he perfectly understood what he was talking about, making Raymond look slightly surprised.
Hardy then gave details about what had just happened, and there was also no surveillance camera recording the incident because Erdyn used some sort of electric current interruption device. Raymond still appeared to have a hard time believing it
"Too bad the footage doesn't exist, so I can't see you getting beat up"
Hardy grinned
“Sorry to disappoint you”
Raymond smiled, but soon his expression turned serious
“Is it okay to just tell him like that?”
Hardy's expression changed in astonishment
"Of course, anyway sooner or later we will also meet him, so let's just say this incident is a bonus to speed up our work"
Raymond crossed his arms and looks astonished by Hardy's words.
Elsewhere, Erdyn is now sitting alone on the edge on top of a building, he then takes out his smartphone which he tried to use earlier to download files from the computer at Hardy and his team's quarters. Erdyn tried to open the files he can get, only to find that all of these files were corrupted, due to the computer's automatic security defense mechanisms. For some reason, Erdyn's expression showed that he had expected it. Erdyn then took out an emblem from the inside pocket of his overcoat, this emblem was the one he had taken from Hardy earlier. There was an emblem with an unknown symbol on it, and a word was written on its surface. Seeing this, Erdyn's expression turned confused and curious
“This word, what does it mean?”
Not long after, there was a ringing sound from Erdyn's smartphone, Erdyn then picked it up. The voice that sounded was a woman's voice
"What did you find there?"
Erdyn's expression was flat
"You ask that, while I also do not know the answer"
The woman on the phone answered
“Hahaha, not as usual? Is something bothering you?”
The woman on the phone chuckled, making Erdyn's expression turn astonished

“There is something that bothers me, about the true purpose of what they do, which even they also do not know”
The woman on the phone was silent for a moment
"Do you know? This reminds me of one of my favorite fairy tales when I was little, guess which one?”
Erdyn replied
"How can I know? You have told me too many fairy tales"
The woman answered
"Let me tell you again, do you want to hear it?"
Erdyn then relaxed his sit, bent his left leg, and used his left knee to support the elbow of his left hand
"That's okay, after all, my business is finished ... it seems"
The woman on the phone answered
"Okay then!"
She replied in a happy and excited tone, making Erdyn's expression return to the astonishment
“Once upon a time, there was a group of people from a hidden village. Somehow, they knew that "some kind of disaster" was coming. They begin to travel together in search of an answer, and found a legend about “the valley of monsters”, the place where the monsters exist. They then continue on a journey to prove the truth of the legend. It turns out the legend was true, they then recklessly entered the place, with the aim of capturing some of the monsters and making them tools to help them.
After that, how surprised they were when they found out that this place turned out to be a very beautiful forest valley of beautiful mountains, far from their thoughts. Not only that, but they were also amazed at how surprisingly this place was so peaceful, the monsters appeared to coexist with each other. But unfortunately, this place was very dangerous for them, the monsters could attack them anytime and put them in danger. At first, they were scared and almost gave up wading through this beautiful but very dangerous place, but they finally managed to survive. Even so, after much consideration, they decided to discourage their intention. The reason is:
In the world of monsters, there is an unwritten law that monsters, normally don't interfere with other monsters. The smaller the difference in strength between them, the less likely they would clash with each other. If anyone tried to interfere with that, the monsters might end up fighting each other and bringing about the destruction of the world. End of story…”
Erdyn appeared to be still listening with an astonished facial expression. This woman then said
“I always think about the ending of this fairy tale, how about the other way around? what if the monsters actually cooperate, and manage to bring peace? We will never know the result”
Hearing this, Erdyn's expression became even more astonished, he then replied
"Then? Who's the monster?”
Elsewhere, it appears that Erdyn's interlocutor is a woman with long hair, wearing a white dress and barefoot, also sitting on the edge of the top of a building, and looking at the beautiful night view of the city in front of her. Her legs moved rhythmically on purpose like she was playing. Her face was not visible, but this woman then smiled.
Back to where Hardy and Raymond were, they and their comrades work hand in hand to clean up the mess in their surveillance area. Some of them work together to move things, while others tidy up the place. The part where there is the main computer, appears on all the screens now that all the video recordings here are paused, only showing what was last recorded in the form like a photograph. The images on this screen are unclear and blurry, because they suddenly just stop, showing the silhouettes of dozens of subjects who are being watched. Hardy walked up to a male technician who is trying to fix this computer
"Has the cause been found?"
This technician, who had been repairing the computer, turned his attention to Hardy
“The cause turned out to be the computer's security system, it appears that Erdyn tried to hack this computer to retrieve the data, so that the computer's security mechanism was activated, and caused a freeze. I'm still trying to fix it"
Hardy gave the technician a nod. Hardy crossed his arms, then glanced at the monitor screens, watching them closely.
On one of these groups of computer screens, the picture is very blurry and hazy, showing a silhouette of a man with a white body, whereas another screen near this screen shows a blurred image of this person's face who looks like he has a mouth with rows of sharp skull teeth, from the mouth to the right and left cheek.
On the other set of screens, there was a blurred image of a person who from the silhouette, this person was a female. She is carrying some kind of double-edged sword in her right hand, some kind of curved double-edged sword in her left hand, and some sort of assault rifle that was slung on her back.
On the other set of screens, there was a blurry image of a person who looked like he was wearing some kind of black heavy armor all over his body and some kind of protective helmet around his head.
Unfortunately, the other groups of monitor screens appear too hazy and blurry to even just see what is being recorded.
Change over to another set of screens, showing one of the screens with the clearest image because of the least amount of blur. Recorded by the drone camera, the image on this screen shows the atmosphere at night. Kenshubo Takeru and Suga Hisoka look shabby as if they are in a fight, in an alert stance ready to attack with their katana, with Asanuma and Nellson beside them, who are also in an alert stance to fight, measuring 3 meters tall. It appeared that Ken is wearing his school uniform, while Suga is wearing his Yokai Controller Association overcoat which is white colored with ankle length and black stripe pattern, a black shirt tucked into his black trousers, a black belt, and black boots. They are together against someone in front of them. Next to this screen which unfortunately has a fairly blurry and hazy image showing a silhouette of the person Ken and Suga are against, he appears to have a black shadow of some kind of large creature behind him, measuring 5 meters tall. It’s not clear “who” Ken and Suga are facing. There is a description on one of these screens
“Current subject priority level: -Confidential-
Number of main subjects supervised: -Confidential-
Confirmed current subjects: 6 (3 humans, 3 non-humans)
Current categories (enemy / non-enemy): -Confidential-
Confirmed current subjects danger level possibility as an enemy: Beyond S (Grave danger)
(Warning, artificial intelligence detects the highest possible danger level and continues to calculate the probability, human considerations please report immediately)”
Before long, Hardy passed in front of this screen and saw it, making his facial expression change in shock
“Beyond S? That’s insane!”
Hardy looked at these screens carefully, trying to understand what was happening. Hardy's expression then turned serious
“Looks like one of them triggers this alert…”
Before long, Hardy appeared to have realized something, his facial expression then showed that he was disturbed to see this
“Or… all of them?”
“Warning, artificial intelligence detects the highest possible danger level and continues to calculate the probability, human considerations please report immediately”
It appeared that the computer system recovered partially, and started repeating this warning message in a fairly loud voice, much to the surprise of Hardy, Raymond, and everyone here.
“Warning, artificial intelligence detects the highest possible danger level and continues to calculate the probability, human considerations please report immediately”
This warning message keeps repeating, making everyone here now pay attention to this set of screens.
