Book One: Alpha World

Epsu 16.We're Alpha Team

I chose to walk from the teleportation room to the AB25 building while reminiscing about the three years that passed. It was three years after the incident that grandfather expressed his annoyance and anger at me who he considered as Sin's killer. In fact, the knife just passed in his head and stabbed right in his neck. But since then grandfather will always consider me the wind then, not even infrequently he kicked me out violently for no apparent reason, but everyone also knows I'm still considered the killer because there's no clear evidence of who the killer is. Maybe with the trip this time I can also find the killer. I didn't feel like I was at the door of my room and I slowly opened it with my blue clock.

‘Click’

“You're home Lian?” Rais and the others were sitting on a couch and then greeting me at a glance before finally each busy themselves with his information ball, the latest social media we know, almost the same as social media on the surface. I sat on the sofa, staring at all my roommates, slowly making everyone look at me in wonder.

“You why Lian? Your mother is better, isn't she?” Ask Gina.

“I.iya mama is better, t..but,.there is something I want to talk to you about.”

“You mean?” Asuza. Everyone looked at me astonished again. I immediately explained the incident that happened in as much detail as possible. Starting from my problems with grandfather, the mission to find the sword Mirabilis from the grandmother to the possibility of dealing with the Red Eye troops and the Rebel Union party. At first everyone was surprised when asked to follow the impossible mission. But after I explained the three conditions from mama, their faces changed in surprise and somewhat relieved.

“We will be trained in the place of the Rankers?!” Rais's eyes rounded while clenching his hands. I'll be long sh-sh soon.

“This is a secret mission, let alone Ranker is a secret Alpha. But this is how I also want to ask, about only the six of us or want to be added?”

“Hmmm, good thing we add again, we need a lot of ability.” Asuza issued his opinion. I nodded in affirming Asuza's words.

“For users ‘natural energy’ we have Rais with ice element and Asuza with fire element, what need to be added?” Ella asked.

“Maybe can be added Cera, animal element user?” Kapi gave a suggestion.

We all agreed. The discussion continued longer. An hour later we spent choosing candidate participants and selecting one by one who could roughly accompany us. Four people were elected and plus our names six I sent to papa and mama to be checked and registered in Alpha Council. I'll immediately type a message through the information ball.

I divided the task into five parts, corresponding to Alpha which was divided into five districts. The Crown King's district team, which takes care of strategy, rules and activities during our mission, consists of me and Gina. The green pen district team, taking care of the health problems of all team members and part of the information affairs, consists of Rheda and Dea. The Tekno-Pin district team, takes care of all electronic devices and processes all the data and I leave it to Ella. Timu Emas team, take care of our weapons, consisting of Rais, Asuza, and Cera.The end of our most important district, the Lower Hand district team, because it regulates every consumption, and daily needs needed, consisting of Kapi and Sian.

“What better I call Cera, Dea, Rheda, and Sian now? Chances are they are not busy.” Ella offered herself. I nodded, it was better. Ella immediately stepped out.

“Now we wait for an answer from my parents, they will provide clarity on when we will go to the location of the dome guard.” I reopened the information ball, trying to see some data regarding the Mirabilis sword.

A short video lasting about five minutes, I was interested, aired when the legendary sword was tested and will be handed over to the grandfather who was then the commander of the Golden Wood district. A young man in full armor with his head protection was seen holding a long box containing a cloth-covered Mirabilis sword, the same box that grandmother had shown yesterday. He walked slowly towards my grandfather who was with some of his troops, then he was seen slowly drawing out the sword Mirabilis. The sword of the magic fusion of the research of the Golden Pen district, the most advanced technology of the techno-Pin district, and the beautiful forging and sculpture of the Lower Hand district now looks its original form.

The sword with a length of one and a half meters, two inches thick and eight inches wide was giving off a white glow like a lantern. The legendary sword is the only one in Alpha World. The young man who carried him now posed raising his sword overhead, ready to swing his sword down.

‘Syuuut’ The sword is now swung slowly. The crowd's claps sounded soft, some people whispering about how light the sword was. Not yet had the sword-bearer's youth moved yet another huge crack was seen on the ground where he swung the sword. The crack was deep once, probably already over five hundred meters. Thin yet deep, so amazing. Even the sword-bearer youth glared at his eyes, staring in disbelief. The applause grew louder. The sword-bearer youth lowered his body, saluting the entire audience.

The sword is now attempting to break a block of tunsten metal, one of the strongest and hardest metals in the world, with a density 19.3 times denser than water, 71 times denser than lead. Some onlookers shook their heads while whispering to the friend next to him, the sword could not do it. One swing of the sword, and the metal was split with the ground beneath it at once.

The final trial was to test in a fight, a fight against twenty top-tier Rankers. The result in an instant with the Mirabilis sword in the hands of the armored youth was not only to injure the Rankers, the sword had even accidentally split their bodies. Everyone was speechless, even the Golden Wood troops were seen trembling with a small object before them.

Me and my new friends, Cera, Dea, Rheda, and Sian immediately turned a blind eye. What a horrible sight. The camera is now taking a look at Grandpa's face. He looked agitated and immediately called out his right hand and whispered something. I'm sure Grandpa told me to hide it. The video stopped.

“What....Is it true that powerful thing we can take?” Dea asked with trembling lips. I'm nodding. Rejection after rejection began to emerge.

“We can't Lian, we're too weak.” Rais also began to think about this life-betting mission.

“What did your parents say, we only need the two strongest Rankers. Impossible! Look!” Sian pointed to the video he had seen just now. ”Even twenty high-level rankers lost!”

“Your parents can't think seriously about Lian! I know, even when this discussion your parents are joking more, right? Your parents don't understand Lian, don't know the situation is this complicated! This stuff will be very difficult for us to get, Lian, plus our very strong enemy, I can't imagine having to meet the enemy!”

I was silent to all forms of protest from my friends. Most of them did refuse this mission.Did I never get to trust grandfather, my mind raged back. I bowed my head, and suddenly my knees went limp. I fell down.

My head wondered what grandfather needed that sword for again. Is there a mush too strong for him and an Alpha?
