Connected World's
Prologue
May 27, 2021,
("O God and Goddess, we ask for your revelation, come the traveler to save our world")
Somewhere, in space there is a king in this world. The magic circle was formed shortly after the magician uttered the spell.
From behind the light of the magic circle, a human figure was formed.
5 people who travel from another world are called to the world to save the world from disaster.
Kirisu Tokiwaki, an 18-year-old male 3rd grade Private High School somewhere in Tokyo, is one of the other six summoned to this world.
The five of them are inhabitants of another world summoned by witches to fight against the demons
He helped others they were friends at his school.
Sarashiki Riria, 17-year-old girl in 2nd grade.
Amakuri Suzu, 17.
Amane Rin, 17 years old.
and lastly Shizuku Houki.
From their appearance the five of them were nothing more than ordinary humans who were not even able to bring out any magical abilities.
But that's the reality they have to go through in a world where fantasy and magic exist

June 7, 2022, Pacific Ocean.
The U. S. Carrier Strike Group 8.
"Admiral on the bridge!"
The aircraft carrier bridge where the control center of the aircraft runway on this ship is located, all personnel on the bridge immediately stood up shortly after the highest officer entered the main room
"Continue, gentlemen"
Said Admiral who was then followed by the crew who returned to continue their work.
"Admiral, today's weather seems very sunny isn't it?"
The first-class officer who was assisting in the Navigation section, reported to the Admiral shortly after he sat in his seat.
"Yes, you're right"
Admiral's gaze was fixed on the horizon where in the distance the ship Burke Class Destroyer DDG-489 seemed to approach the anomaly.
'Anomaly'
Amidst the calm of the pacific ocean, an anomaly where some sort of light distortion was formed. The anomaly is not yet known what causes it, the only thing he knows, they are assigned to guard and supervise the zero zone.

West coast region, California. June 8th, 2022
(Retired) Sergeant Major Jonathan Crish
"....."
Counted six months I was out of the Marine Corps, but the habits of the unit still cling to my life.
'Really annoying'
To stare in the morning on a clear day is what I do.
("We started the news this morning, with news flash viewers!")
("Russian forces were repulsed by Ukrainian forces in the Kharkiv region!")
("The heavy defeat of the Russian forces is confirmed by visual satellites and drones which, as you can see today, are, ukrainian forces raise the flag on top of the building where this territory was formerly controlled by Russia")
("We'll soon be connected by our reporters at the forefront for more information")
"......"
The news of the war in Ukraine destroyed my appetite when I was just ready for breakfast.
"That's it"
I thought while enjoying the coffee and toast that had just been made.
("Bwd")
?
Looking at the message on my phone, I slightly raised my eyebrows because what was written there was enough to impress me a bit.
("What's the matter?")
Two words that are quite cute that make me grimace
("Eating")
I responded to the message in the same way.
(".. oh, yes it is")
The message ends there.
Sometimes I think about changing my phone number, but after considering a lot of things, I undo my intentions.
'Surely he must be my new number even if I really change the number'
("Package!")
The sound from the door managed to distract my mind.
"For Jonathan"
Said the courier shortly after handing over the package, or should I say, letter?
"Thank you"
When I went inside, the envelope contained something I really didn't want to read.
'That's right, bro!?'
('Duty call to, Ret. Sgt Maj Jonathan Crish.
The day passed, I who could not escape the call of duty, returned to the place I hated the most in the world.
Parris Island, the Marine training ground where they will undergo the worst 12 weeks of training for cadets.
'This is gonna be so annoying.
I thought as I entered the camp.
....
December 22, 2022
"Copral Jonathan Crish, 27. You will be placed under the second battalion, it seems you are very dislike your call this time, huh?"
"Don't tease me, Miss First Lieutenant Fujiwara"
"fufufu..... Your eyes are blackened, are you sleep deprived?"
"Obviously, marine training is still the same as I know it"
"Fufufu .. You're so funny, oh"
The 26-year-old woman started picking things up from inside her desk drawer.
"Look, I'm gonna be the head of your platoon this time, you'd better do a good job, Corporal Jonathan Crish"
"gh ....."
And so it was, I was put under the leadership of First Lieutenant Fujiwara Sayaka.
The 3-year assignment I received was very suspicious for me, because this is the first time I've heard about a long-term deployment for the marines.
Anyway, why should I be the one called back?
January 7, 2023
My questions were answered about why I was called back, why the area placement contract was 3 years, and why the placement location was not mentioned in the contract or published.
In the Pacific Ocean, two aircraft carrier groups consisting of Carrier Strike Group 8 and Carrier Strike Group 9 appear to be moving toward the anomaly.
In Hovercraft where I was in LAV-25 along with the squad led by first lieutenant Fujiwara Sayaka, I was at the forefront of the anomaly
Needless to say where and what the Marine combat-ready troops are going to do, which I know whatever it is, it's not a good thing for him
In the ocean where 14 Hovercraft carrying Abrams Tanks and IFVs appear to be moving together towards a place they do not know.

Demon Continent.
In a castle that stood gallantly on the plains of the region where the demi-humans and demons lived, the ruler among the people seemed to sit majestically in the throne room.
The Demon Queen Rosella.
He looked still young different from the previous demon lord.
"Miss"
"Is there anything you want, Sophia?"
The woman dressed as a witch went to the throne where the queen was enjoying a warm tea that had just been poured by the maid next to her
"Miss, are you sure you didn't attack the hero?"
"...... hm.... Sophia, what makes you think attacking humans is the best option?"
"then will you let humans invade your place!?"
"....."
Rosella remained silent while drinking her tea, as if she did not budge on the posibility of a human coming to her castle and cutting off her head like the previous demon lord.
Only, this time, he as the ruler of the demons, he did not attack humans even he did nothing. Man should not bother them, or that's what he thinks.
'What's this like?'
He stared at the window where he looked at the clear sky, the demon race that had always been the enemy of humans would still be the target of hatred and for the sake of mortal status, they were proudly fighting the demon race.
'really pathetic'
