Chapter 28: Her Guidance
Wait without calling out to them
The past is already calling out
To the path that can only lead to the present
Three colors were displayed on a twenty centimeter screen.
The colors were divided into three horizontal bands. From bottom to top, they were gray, dark green, and black.
The gray at the very bottom was asphalt, the green on top of it was grass, and the black at the top was the night.
It was an image of the night sky at the end of a runway.
A face was reflected in the glass screen. The face belonged to a girl with short, blonde hair and an orange work jacket who was standing in a small room.
The outside sound reached the small room.
That sound was loud and it had no single source. It simply washed over the entirety of the room.
The girl faced the screen while listening to it and her eyes focused on the bands of color there.
âI have to say goodbye to this country, donât I?â
The girl named Heo muttered to herself with her gaze fixed on that screen.
Not long ago, she had heard a strange voice and the city visible in the screen had gone silent. Before, car headlights had moved back and forth between the dark green and black bands, but that movement was gone.
She knew this was known as a concept space.
She also knew that only UCAT and their enemies could create these spaces.
However, Diana had said Black Sun, her demon, was gone.
âWhat else is there?â
She saw something on the screen moving along the grass from the right and lining up.
They initially looked like blue dogs taking a walk on the grass, but she shook her head to eliminate that illusion. The two blue forms lined up on the green band were in the center of the twenty centimeter screen and their faces were about the same height as the screen.
She could not be sure without any other objects to compare them to, but they were likely the same size as the airplane.
â¦Mechanical dragons.
Her great-grandfather and her real great-grandfather had taken part in their initial development as test pilots and American UCAT had continued to research them after the Concept War. Now, they were American UCATâs greatest weapons.
It had been identical machines that had defeated Black Sun.
American UCAT supposedly owned sixty-eight of them and six of those would escort her through the concept spaceâs skies until her airplane left Tokyo.
She thought about the fact that she was being protected.
ââ¦â
She remained silent.
But then the sound surrounding her changed. It rapidly grew and the entire room shook.
The airplane was preparing for takeoff.
The shaking of the room moved from right to left and the room itself almost seemed to float, but the sound grew even louder and the airplaneâs brakes would not allow it to advance.
The airplane had to build up a lot of power so it could rise into the air and fly forward. To accomplish that, the engineâs roar grew to what sounded like a scream and suddenlyâ¦
ââ¦â
It began to move.
