Japanese Ground Self Defense Force (JGSDF) Camp Narashino

Master Sergeant Hirohide Hagane sat in the backseat of a humvee that had just peeled left out of Camp Narashino onto the Narita Kaido Highway, midway through explaining the details of their current operation to First Lieutenant Iori Kimitsu, who listened next to him with her arms folded and a grim look on her face

“The goal is to exterminate all of the mutant cleaners. Our main obstacle is slimes.”

First Lieutenant Taito Kaiba cocked his head incredulously upon hearing what their targets would be. Here he’d been wondering what they’d been mobilized for on such short order, and couldn’t help but feel as though the wind had been let out of his sails.

“Something you’d like to say, Kaiba?” Hagane asked.

“It’s just...slimes? They’re sending us in for that?” If all that was required was getting rid of a few slimes, certainly that seemed like work for another team, or even general explorers. “Surely they don’t need to drag us out just to wipe away a few snot bubbles.”

Hagane sighed, gave a brief summary of the report on Falcon Industries’ first encounter, then passed them all tablets displaying the relevant supporting data.

“What the—?” The shock was visible on First Lieutenant Shinobu Sawatari’s face as he watched the footage. The multiheaded cleaner had been blasted into seven pieces by 23-millimeter rounds, but each piece had regenerated into its own copy.

“As you can see,” Hagane began, “our target this time has some unprecedented regenerative abilities.”

So that was what was makingLieutenant Kimitsu so glum, Sawatari realized—she was famously not a fan of cleaners.

“That isn’t all,” Hagane continued. “At fixed intervals, they multiply.”

The cleaners in the footage, who had stopped moving for a moment, suddenly began wriggling again. Then one became two, doubling their total number.

A constantly doubling target within a fixed space. If they failed to contain the situation, and the number of monsters increased unabated—

Each member of Team I was beginning to understand why they’d been mobilized.

“This might become a joint operation with Team Simon too,” Hagane announced, concluding the briefing.

“Team Simon? You mean the DSF?”

“Yes. They’ve been summoned up from the eighteenth floor of Yoyogi.”

“Summoned? But they’re under the direct jurisdiction of the president...”

In other words, their orders must have come from the US president himself.

“But why is America getting involved in an incident in Yokohama at this stage?” Kaiba asked.

“Beats me,” Hagane responded. “But the Chief of Staff, Joint Staff, got called in by the prime minister and director of cabinet intelligence and heard it repeated ad nauseam just how critical the success of this mission was.”

American military bases may not have been too far from Yokohama, but Yokosuka was still a good distance away. No one could quite understand the need for America’s involvement, but in terms of explorer ability, Team Simon was among the best in the world. They would at least be an asset with their skills.

“But judging from the data,” Kaiba began, “howitzers and armor-piercing munitions are going to be—”

“Off-limits,” Hagane replied.

“But hold on.
