The Insertia Tower is located at the Central Section, the center of the School City. This tower acts as the core of everything in this city.
This tower is being run by the City President and the main faction that oversees all the schools of this city, the Central Section Operatives.
At the top of this tower, the Administrative Officer is looking at the new info that she got from the Sensei.
"A mysterious passage that only Monokami Kiryo of the Freelancers can enter. How curious..." She said, her eyes focused at the image of the girl in question.
She is Ishida Miho. The Administrative Officer of the Central Section Operatives, and is also the one who acts as the stand-in for the City President.
She is a serious looking person, wearing a strict white military uniform with some hints of a school uniform features in it. Besides her is a flintlock-like weapon with some futuristic design with it. She have a long black lustrous hair and sharp bluish eyes.
She is a serious person, and have little to no humor at all. Her attitude to most things is to deal with it as quickly as possible, and further the agenda of the city to further benefit the students within.
"It seems like Monokami-san is the only one who can do this then. I should ask Sensei to plan an operation with her in mind." She stated.
It is simple what they wanted in this. They wanted the new untapped resources and many more discoveries within the new world. Just by that alone, they can advance their magical knowledge and might also require new resources not found on their world.
"It is a shame that only her can get inside it. Now she is the only one we can rely on."
Her hands types something on the holographic keyboards, inputting texts until she is done with the new documents. This document contains all the plans and suggestions she have for the upcoming "Operation".
The document is called the "Pandora Plan". The document is being passed by the heavily encrypted and advance networks, the receivers are those from the higher executives, leaders of factions from law enforcements, and the leader of the Mithra Club.
'I hope someone from the higher executive got chosen by that guy!' She thought, looking at the image captured about the mysterious guy.
She thinks that the guy must have control over that door. The guy looks confident enough and his gaze is mysterious, so she didn't know what he is thinking about. They can only hope that Kiryo can move the plan forward until that mysterious guy got comfortable enough to let the others from this city to get inside.
~~o~~
Said guy is currently sitting on the chair behind the reception table. His head leaning on the table with his arm in a lazy manner.
He is waiting for Kiryo to come back. He didn't know when, but he really hopes she comes back.
He needs a source of income, and the best way to have that is to hunt for monsters. There are no one going to his guild to commission a quest, so it's the only way to acquire money.
He can't hunt those. He didn't have the experience and it is dangerous. He is literally a normal human, and is the most weakest person in this world. Even normal civilians here can beat him up without being able to fight back due to them having more robust body and the existence of magic.
So he is waiting for Kiryo and hopefully ask her to hunt some of those monsters.
As he is waiting, he heard the mysterious door slowly opening. He quickly stood up and look there to welcome her, before stopping, surprised at the person he sees there.
Instead of Kiryo, he saw another girl emerging from the other side of that door. She is a blonde haired girl and she is wearing a deep blue jacket, a jacket that seems to be appropriate on cold regions. Her half-lidded ocean-colored eyes glances at him in curiosity. Her face looks bored, though she looks so cute.
'Wait... isn't this Elio!?' He thought in realization.
Elio, the Blue Evoker. She is the one who bonded with the Water Spirit and have the full power to command water. She is one of the basic characters that a player can get from the game Spiritverse, a pixelated mobile gacha game about a group of people fighting the evil forces and saving the Queen's Kingdom.
The girl in front of him looks a lot cuter than the one from the illustration. Just like Elio from the game, this one wore a deep blue jacket and a bored looking expression.
The game is not that popular, but because he likes playing games a lot so he knows every characters from the Spiritverse.
'What the... what happened to my connection to Kiryo?' He felt a sense of foreboding, nervous that his connection to her is gone.
"What is this place?" Elio asked with a cute voice.
This is the first time he heard her voice. The game Spiritverse didn't have any voicelines, so it is surprising to hear it. Her voice is like that of a noble girl who acts mighty but is sweet on the inside.
He really didn't know much about her background because the game Spiritverse didn't expands on that. It just shows an array of characters and they go fight the evil forces without any story with it.
'Wait... if this is like what happened to Kiryo, then I have to persuade her to join my guild. If she didn't, she won't be able to go outside!'
He coughs, taking her attention to him.
"Good morning Ms. Elio. Welcome to my guild."
"How did you know my name?"
He smiled mysteriously. "I have my ways."
She looks at him for a bit with a raised eyebrow before looking around. She goes on the nearby chair and sits on it before glancing at him once again, the door closing behind her.
"Oh. Then are you a part of the evil forces?"
"Nope." He simply answered.
The girl nodded. "Good. Then, I think I will join."
He widened his eyes at the quick acceptance of the girl.
"Wow... you won't ask for any clarifications?"
"Of course. I am one of the heroes of light, so it is my duty to help civilians like you in your problems." She said with a shrug.
'That's... surprising...' He thought in shock.
The game of Spiritverse didn't have much of a narrative, so he didn't know how the people there acts. It can't be just too simple, isn't it?
Apparently, it is simple. The people there seems to be capable of learning whether a person is part of the evil forces or not.
"Okay. Then please wait as I take the relevant stuffs to finalize you joining my guild."
He quickly stood up and goes to his room to take the documents and spare empty Guild Cards on it.
~~o~~
A few moments later....
"Here is your Guild Card. Please don't lose it because it will be hard to replace it." 'And it's expensive.' Is the one that he didn't continue to say.
Elio nodded before looking at the card.

While she is busy like that, the door slowly opens once more, making the two of them distracted and point their attention to it.
On the mysterious door emerges Kiryo, who peeks out her head and looks around for a bit. Her gaze sticks to the figure of Elio for a bit before she stops and enters the room.
Along with her are many bags that she is carrying.
"Good morning William-sama." She greeted with a bow before turning her gaze at Elio for a bit. "May I know who she is?" She asked with a tilt of her head.
"She's Elio. She's from another world that I just recruited before you came back."
"I see." She turned to Elio who is also looking at her in curiosity. "It is nice to meet you, Elio-san."
"Un..." Elio just nodded on her way.
Then Elio looks at her card for a brief moment before finally pocketing it on her jacket.
"By the way, what's with all of those?"
His eyes is directed at the many bags that she is currently carrying.
"This? These are all the resources I need for this operation." She easily answered as she put the stuff on the ground and opens it one by one.
Inside, there are many things within. Some crates full of ammo and other ordinances, and some laptops and other futuristic machineries.
"Due to the absence of any technology, I was given all of these equipments to begin installing it on this room. I hope this is fine?"
He can understand that. Battle on School City are done using modern warfare with a side of magic. So they need central commands and other logistics just so the frontliners can work on the field.
Though he is curious. This girl is one of the Frontline fighters. If she is going to do the comms, then who would go on the field?
It seems like the wolf eared girl already anticipated it as she continues on her explanation.
"The higher executives have requested for your cooperation. If you are willing to cooperate, then I will work with you with the best of my capabilities." She said to him.
".... That means...?"
"Your going to act as the comm support while I go out on the field."
He blinks, then stares at her for moment. His mind trying to process what she just said.
"W-wait what!?"
He yelled in surprised.
Elio is just looking on the side, curious about the conversation of the two.
