Qualidea Code

This is where you were?

It's time already?

Yes.

We're sorry to keep you waiting.

Don't worry.

So, this is the list of students who'll be transferred inside.

Please confirm it.

Thank you.

In addition to the wounded,

I built the list around individuals with the least aptitude.

Those of high rank or who have shown remarkable growth,

the ones with the special power known as "World,"

have been placed on hold, as you directed.

Everything looks fine.

Please proceed with this.

Understood.

Transferring people to the inside, huh?

Yes. I hope they'll at least have a chance to rest.

They are valuable assets in sustaining our world.

We will not let a single one go to waste.

Good work.

Finish the rest of the work as usual.

Then, if you'll excuse me.

How can she talk about them like they're perishable goods?

I know. Don't glare at her like that.

All you can do is do your best.

It's all to protect them.

You're right.

They are the last hope we have left.

Third Hospital

Icchan isn't coming?

That's right. I can't believe this.

I messaged him and he totally snapped at me.

He's so unreasonable. I don't get it.

I swear, Icchan, you're such a troublemaker...

Announcement of Inside Transfers

Oh, right... Icchan...

Tokyo Third Surgical Hospital

Thanks for coming all the way out here, Suzaku-san.

Don't get the wrong idea.

This isn't a friendly hospital visit.

I'm only here to see the face of an inept amateur who's getting transferred inside.

It's not even a bad injury, really...

This might be good timing, though.

Okuni-san said my ability probably won't mature any further.

Probably not.

If you got hurt in such an easy battle and slowed everyone down,

you're not cut out for Tokyo's esteemed battle program.

I guess not.

Well, just do whatever you can.

That applies whether you're inside or on the front line.

You'll be going back to your parents, right?

Yeah.

They said it was too bad, but they know I tried my best.

Any parent would be glad to have their child come home.

Have you prepared a gift for them?

No, nothing special...

I've been stuck in here.

The Simple Etiquette Series Easily Mistaken Homecoming Etiquette

Don't get the wrong idea!

A book I read last week just happened to still be in here!

It really is hard to understand you when Cana-chan-senpai isn't around.

Okay, we've arrived on site.

No apparent problems around Umihotaru.

Can we go back now?

Um... Go ahead with your usual patrol rounds for now, okay?

For real?

This is really wearing me out, though, so...

Can I look at you on video while we talk?

This job is so boring.

Ugh, there they are.

Not fair. So not fair.

Everything okay?

No problem.

They don't look like tough enemies.

I guess we'll just wipe them up quickly!

Today at 0900,

a giant Unknown appeared in the waters in front of Umihotaru on the Aqua Line.

It's a new type,

larger than the Triton-class that was previously classified as the largest.

Administration has tentatively named it a "Leviathan-class."

Interception and elimination of the target is top priority.

The Tokyo School's patrol unit engaged it upon its appearance,

but could not pierce the Leviathan-class's armor,

and the unit's commander made the decision to retreat.

Umihotaru and the Aqua Line are currently under the enemy's control.

They got taken over?!

It's likely the Unknown's goal is to occupy Umihotaru as a bridgehead.

It's imperative that we counterattack ASAP.

It's unusual for Suza-kun to retreat, though.

Was it that tough?

Well...

The unit's commander today wasn't Icchan.

Huh? Why not?

Isn't the head or subhead always supposed to be present on regular patrols?

What's the deal?

The members of the patrol unit were high in rank.

They could handle ordinary patrol or enemy interception with no problems.

And that was their decision.

I see. You blame your subordinates.

It's always your subordinates who are at fault.

That's way too irresponsible!

Listen, with power comes responsibility,

and with power comes responsibility!

Which means?

Which means...

Power means responsibility, and responsibility means power!

That means true power is power!

Indeed. Hime is always right.

Well, putting aside power number one and power number two...

The Aqua Line is a key point in our defense.

What are we gonna do if it's occupied?

B-But Icchan had a good reason...

Stop it, Canaria.

What? Did you have a tummy ache?

It wasn't that!

Everyone's just been doing routine work lately,

so even I think...

He was able to do something he needed to do as the Tokyo head.

What would you have done, Kasumi-kun?

Well, I'm not the head.

That's not what I mean!

This is hilarious. Onii's the one she's yelling at.

Shut up.

But you know...

It was tough enough that the high-ranked members retreated, right?

Isn't it bad if something like that is still out there?

That's right! So what's important right now isn't who's to blame!

We all know who's to blame, though.

You are ruthless.

Yeah, well...

Tomorrow at dawn, all three schools will strike it together.

This isn't like the enemies we've seen before.

Think about what you can do, and what you should do.

You'll be entrusted with selecting and contacting members of your respective schools.

I'll upload the data from the earlier battle to the integrated data link,

so the representatives from each city should check it.
