Good evening. |
|
Welcome to the General News Today hour. |
|
—I’m Carl Larson. |
Caster |
Good evening. |
|
I’m Ceriese Kristy. |
Caster |
And first, |
|
starting with the topic of the fighter that made an emergency landing at Fort Grace airport.... |
|
. |
Caster |
Yes, to recap. |
|
At twilight yesterday morning, a single fighter suddenly appeared in the skies above General Resource’s Fort Grace airport, and |
|
. |
|
. |
|
minutes later, made an emergency landing on the third runway. |
|
The plane, originally reported to be of unknown affiliation, |
|
after an inquiry by General Resource aerial defense security, |
|
. |
|
has been confirmed to be a fighter affiliated with UPEO’s peacekeeping forces. |
|
The purpose of the landing |
|
is regarded to be the transfer of said plane’s crewman to General Resource; |
|
. |
|
General Resource’s air defense security |
|
is even now inquiring as to the full reasons from the crewman. |
|
. |
Caster |
Now, some of you all might hear this news, and |
|
wonder why it is that until this fighter showed up in the skies above the Fort Grace airport, no-one has ever flown undetected by General Resource’s lookout systems... well, aren’t there people who’d think that way? |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
Caster |
If a fighter simply eludes the lookout systems so simply like this, and can land at a General Resource airport, |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
we could consider that we might be living side by side with terrible danger unwittingly, couldn’t we? |
|
. |
|
. |
Caster |
Yes; exactly as you say. |
|
And because of that, we |
|
sent a request to General Resource headquarters for permission to cover this. |
|
. |
|
Accordingly, we have just gotten none other than the General Resource defense force commander, Mr. Abyssal Dision, to directly answer our question via videophone. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
Caster |
So, without further delay, |
|
please watch it on the VTR. |
Dision |
The reason our lookout systems didn’t work this time |
|
. |
|
is because we and the pilot of the fighter that landed had established contact beforehand, so the landing was planned the whole time; |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
as for General’s defenses, please rest assured that nothing like the problem being reported is coming about. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
I suppose you could say that the fuss this time around came from an image taken by a camera installed at the airport that leaked to some news outlets. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
Now, as for us, |
|
we do consider the fact that an image like this one has been leaked is itself a big problem; |
|
. |
|
we are presently investigating the cause. |
Caster |
—so what that means is, this transfer drama |
|
was actually planned from the beginning? |
Caster |
General Resource |
|
even has a collaborative relationship with UPEO, so it would stand to reason |
|
that this transfer drama was concluded in absolute secrecy, I suppose. |
|
. |
Caster |
According to the words from some relevant persons, |
|
it seems that the crewman is quite the superior talent, doesn’t it? |
|
. |
Caster |
However, if you hear the opinion of another General Resource ace pilot, who has been on the same team as Mr. Dision for many years, Mr. Keith Bryan, |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
it seems that there is a little disagreement somehow. |
Keith |
Huh? That fighter——? |
|
Look, for the most part.... |
|
Is some guy who can just cut it in the UPEO cowards gonna pass for one of our General members?! |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
Well, at some point.... |
|
I’m gonna see their skill or something. |
|
—wait, |
|
do you guys even have permission to cover this? |
Dision |
First, believe my words: |
|
I thank you for accepting my high-handed invitation. |
|
. |
|
The activity you have seen so far |
|
Your skill is too good to leave as a pawn of the depraved UPEO. |
|
. |
|
We are, even now, are trying to advance a time of reformation. |
|
. |
|
It is a time where we should keep our great ideals hidden in our hearts and fight. |
|
. |
|
The world does not work without being changed by means of blood. |
|
. |
|
—I want you to believe in me. |
|
Well, from now on, you |
|
will be assigned to a unit under my direct control. |
|
An Eagle+ and a Sakerfalcon have been prepared for you. |
|
. |
|
Give me as much use of your skill as you like. |
|
I’m expecting it. |
