And now for a update on the explosion accident that occurred at a Neucom air base in the Waiapolo mountain range. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
As to the cause, |
|
a joint investigation between Neucom Info and local police remains ongoing. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
The names of those whose deaths have been confirmed |
|
have been released by Neucom Info. |
|
. |
|
The names are as follows: |
|
—NEU-affiliated |
|
maintenance crewmen Robert Sanderson and |
|
George Thomson. |
|
Comm transporter Tadokoro... |
|
...given name currently unknown. |
|
Similarly, comm transporter Stark... |
|
...given name currently unknown. |
|
NEU-affiliated pilot |
|
Fiona C. Fitzgerald. |
|
Similarly, pilot |
|
Kevin Jones. |
|
Uh... ah, oh... yes, yes, is that so? |
|
Ehm, it was in the middle of the news, but |
|
just now, it seems that the satellite relay that had been interrupted before has connected. |
|
. |
|
Well then, |
|
Please watch our hookups from the airport near where a military coup seems to have occurred, and from our special correspondent near the site. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
Reporter |
Yes, this is the airport. |
|
Here, air lines connecting to all sectors have suspended all mail services. |
|
. |
|
There is still no announcement as to the reason. |
|
There are even rumors that in one sector, General Resource’s air superiority has been completely compromised; the airport is showing the extremes of disorder. |
|
. |
|
. |
Reporter |
Everyone. |
|
I’m broadcasting from a location about 50 kilometers away from the Geofront. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
Can you see me? |
|
In the skies above me, countless fighter formations |
|
have caught numerous figures headed for the Geofront area on camera. |
|
. |
(Ouroboros) |
Our rise to action... many people still seem to be misunderstanding. |
|
. |
|
Certainly, the things people are seeing at the present point |
|
are little more than that mutual killing so familiar to mankind, after all. |
|
. |
|
However... that is all we shall say for now. |
|
The forces that the organizations known as General Resource, Neucom, and UPEO and |
|
. |
|
the war they carry out even now, |
|
are the entrances for the revolution we hope for. |
|
...indeed. |
|
For us, the true enemies |
|
The forces that the organizations known as General Resource, Neucom, and UPEO and |
|
. |
|
When this revolution is complete, |
|
what we—no, all mankind will grasp |
|
will not be powers like these at all! |
(Ouroboros) |
We already possess the technology for the purpose of allowing all mankind to exceed its limits, and |
|
. |
|
are preparing it. |
|
—cast aside the flesh! |
|
This is a revolution done to set lives free. |
|
. |
|
And now, we will declare. |
|
Sublimation of all mankind—that is |
|
the one and only truth that will advance our lives into a new generation! |
|
. |
|
This technology is not a dream. |
|
Perhaps we should show you a piece of evidence. |
|
. |
|
—Dision! |
|
This man, due to a General Resource trick 10 years ago, completely lost his flesh. |
|
. |
|
...and yet, as a life in the Electrosphere, |
|
he certainly exists even now. |
|
Indeed, the “Will”, organized by the powers that came to be called by the names of “Life”, “Mind”, and “Consciousness” which we all equally hide from the start, |
|
. |
|
. |
|
made not a limit of the frail existence known as Flesh and such, after all. |
|
. |
|
And this truth we |
|
came to hand down as information from prehistoric times. |
|
We need not look back to history——. |
|
As for the existence of Life without the limit of Flesh, |
|
we transformed in this way. |
|
That is, “the new image of mankind.” |
|
And so, above human history, |
|
Dision was reborn into the first life without flesh. |
|
. |
|
We install him as the Leader of the Beginning, and |
|
put this revolution into action! |
Cynthia |
Did you see the Neucom accident on the news? |
|
Oh, oh... it’s definitely a conspiracy. |
|
Fii is... but that’s why I told her! |
|
Even though I asked, Ouroboros still.... |
|
I told her over and over again, but |
|
she was always stubborn; |
|
nothing but stupid, stupid things! |
|
—because she insisted on a body. |
|
Even though when she died there would be nothing left at all. |
|
I told her, “Undergo Sublimation together with me.” |
|
If only she’d listened to me, |
|
it wouldn’t have come to this! |
|
Those Neucom bastards... |
|
in the end, they are no different from General! |
|
I knew it; the revolution must come about. |
|
This world will come to naught. |
|
Hey... you and I both |
|
will allow Dision’s revolution to be complete, and |
|
we will cast aside the flesh—in the sea of the Electrosphere, |
|
let us obtain man’s new way of living. |
Dision |
It’s been a while. |
|
Back when you were in UPEO, |
|
remember that time I invited you? |
|
—I’m glad you came. |
|
In fact, this revolution was planned starting from around then. |
|
. |
|
It’s because ever since that time, you were already in my hands. |
|
. |
|
You probably knew it, too. |
|
Both UPEO and Neucom |
|
were, after all, badgers from the same lair |
|
—or so I’d put it. |
|
Peacekeeping and such, scientific elites and such, |
|
various such things are discussed ad nauseam, but |
|
they are comrades in their cowardice that have no will to action. |
|
But I am different. |
|
There isn’t a thing I fear. |
|
Heh... heh heh heh! |
|
It seems the world has already taken notice of me, in fact. |
|
Now, I will stare back at world society. |
|
Shouldn’t I sacrifice those bastards who took me for a fool as a blood offering? |
|
. |
|
—exterminate the damned human race, that has clung to the flesh! |
Cynthia |
Thank you. |
|
You believed in me even though I didn’t even explain. |
|
. |
|
Therefore, no matter what may happen, I will look out for you. |
|
. |
Dision |
We will rescue the pilot of “Night Raven”, the ultimate weapon essential to our revolution, from UPEO. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
First, we assault the UPEO base, |
|
eliminating the ground forces. |
|
Your mission is to make it so that the rescue craft can land on the runway. |
|
. |
|
Put up a good fight. |
(Dision) |
You’ve finally come back, Rena. I’d been waiting. |
|
Everything starts from here. |
|
And with Night Raven which was born to transform this world, |
|
. |
|
shall Rena not show her true hidden power? |
|
. |
(Cynthia) |
Changing the world is not fighting as we do here; |
|
Dision... is it not your own form, the Sublimation of humanity? |
|
. |
|
Even without using things like the Night Raven, you should preach the wonders of the Electrosphere by your own devices. |
|
. |
(Dision) |
Nope. You’re wrong. |
|
Power exists to show to people. |
|
Can your present self see my form? |
(Cynthia) |
No. But is is there a point to having a form that can be seen when in flesh? |
|
. |
(Dision) |
What would your present self know!? |
|
Unknowingly bound to this world, |
|
the feeling of one who lost everything in an instant? |
|
Do you really think I even hoped for this form for myself? |
(Cynthia) |
You didn’t want Sublimation...? |
|
—I... I myself betrayed Neucom, |
|
so far as betrayed my one and only sister, |
|
so far as to cast aside everything and participated in this revolution of yours, |
|
and what I hope for... was that form of yours. |
(Dision) |
My form, you say? That you are trying to use me for that itself |
|
. |
|
is little more than a meaningless dream. |
|
One to escape from your reality. |
|
What do you think you will find in the Electrosphere? |
|
From your talk, the world of the Electrosphere |
|
sounds only like you want to say it is Heaven. |
|
If you want to escape to Heaven, |
|
you’re better off chasing after your sister. |
(Cynthia) |
Fii was.... |
|
Fii was always telling me this. |
|
That I should leave dreams to when I sleep. |
|
But thanks to you, I understand. |
|
—it’s a dream that won’t let me sleep at night. |
Cynthia |
Sorry. |
|
Geez... no matter where I go I leave off coming. |
|
. |
|
Even though I thought that this was the place I was thinking of.... |
|
. |
|
I have lost so many things. |
|
Somehow, it seems the idiot wasn’t Fii, but me. |
|
. |
|
—still, I am me. |
|
For myself, and for Fii, |
|
I intend to put an end to this battle. |
|
So, you definitely.... |
|
Therefore, forgive this final selfishness of mine. |
|
—from here on out, we disappear. |
|
And what was the truth of this battle? |
|
For that alone, I will fight until I see it with my own eyes. |
|
That’s my intention. |
|
Therefore, believe in me, please... just because. |
|
—well then. |
