A few hours had passed since Naomi returned to the base.

She was inside the meeting room alone, looking at footage that was sent by the Military just a few minutes earlier.

The footage was a 30-minutes long video. It was sent directly from her father in the Military with a warning that said, ‘Don’t show this to anyone yet,’ which piqued Naomi's curiosity.

But still, it was a warning from his father, someone who put her above anyone else. If he said it was dangerous, then it should be dangerous. At least dangerous enough that someone like his father, an Esper known for his precise control over his ability, warned her about it.

However, Tetsuma failed to see one thing from his daughter. It was that she enjoyed something new.

“This is interesting.”

Naomi muttered as she closed her holo phone, putting it on the table. She had finished watching the footage and smiled slightly.

“While it is a shame that the Stealth Squad in the United States were taken out, they are formidable to be able to send this footage first. Thankfully I asked Chi to send her subordinates to the United States and act separately from the Military. We will be able to collect more information this way.”

The last part of the footage was about the Stealth Squad in the United States was ambushed by five people, all wearing similar white suits, and Naomi somehow thought their faces were familiar. Only, they were all younger from the face that she was familiar with.

Hanz and the others had moved right after they were being briefed by Chi. Even Stephen, Selena, Doni, and Ao's siblings went to the United States to do some missions.

Apparently, Melaine asked Chi to move Stephen and the others to destroy something in the United States that was connected to the Esper Association.

The information about that had also been sent to Naomi’s holo phone, and she approved the mission because it would chip the Esper Association’s power if that something were to be destroyed.

“Now then. It should have arrived just about now.”

Naomi stood up and put the holo phone in her pants pocket. She then walked out of the meeting room, looking at the empty hallway.

Almost everyone in the base was outside to guard the perimeter, especially when the situation had escalated rather quickly with Avos’ movement and her declaration.

It was such a rare sight. Usually, Naomi would see someone chatting on the side and got flustered when they saw her. So Naomi felt a little bit out of place when her base was empty. She understood, though. The emptiness of the base was a sign that everyone took the War seriously.

She walked down the hallway and arrived at the lobby. There, a few people were pushing a weapon tray that was full of rifles and ammunition.

They brought those weapons outside from a special elevator that was hidden in the first room before the entrance. The people who pushed the card nodded briefly when they saw Naomi. As a good leader, Naomi answered them with a nod too and a word to appreciate them.

“Good work.”

She proceeded to the entrance that also served as an exit and left the base.

Once she was outside, she looked at the sky. The full moon was shining brightly, basking the night with its blue light.

“A blue moon,” Naomi muttered, then she looked around.

The Underground base was connected to Akasa Inc’s main building. It was built right beside the underground area of Akasa Inc.'s building, and the entrance to the Underground base was still in the area of Akasa Inc.

That was why, once she was outside, she found the combatants that Melaine recruited from who-know-where and the security guard from Akasa Inc. walking around in patrol.

They were coordinated and commanded by Hyun-Woo, who was in charge of defense.

Hyun-Woo was wearing a full-body combat suit made from a mix of carbon and some advanced metallurgy that Akasa Inc created.

The suit could stop a bullet, and it was even fire-proof and slash-proof. It was a perfect combat suit that was even more advanced than the one in the Avos School, which was the standard suit used by the PD of the Esper Association.

However, such a combat suit, of course, had a disadvantage. And in this case, the cost and time spent to create one suit were equivalent to the cost and time to create ten standard combat suits. So only a few handfuls of suits were managed to be manufactured in time. Ten in total.

Five suits were given to Selena and Stephen’s team, except for Stephen who chose to depend on his body because it was sturdier than the suit.

Four suits were given to Hyun-Woo, Rekka, Bel, and Chi. Melaine didn’t need the suit as she could dodge any attack even though she wore a dress. And the last suit was given to Mischa.

Originally, the combat suit was Naomi’s, but she refused to wear it because she had Telekinesis Barrier already around her body. So she held the last suit to be given to Mischa later, which she predicted would arrive in just a few minutes.

Hyun-Woo was working to create another layer of barrier around Akasa Inc.’s building and the Underground base. The barrier he created this time was detecting any intruder who entered the barrier without wearing a designated item.

Naomi had already told Hyun-Woo her idea if anyone asked what that item was. She decided it would be any item with the Moon of Akasha’s logo, which was a crescent moon. A simple thing, but it served as identification nonetheless.

A few people saw Naomi, but she asked them to continue their work. She only waited for the island to arrive while sitting on a box of weapons while looking at the sky.

Finally, after a few minutes, a big cloud approached as it flew slowly in the sky. Some people were suspicious of the cloud, but they were immediately calmed down by Rekka and Chi. Both people had proud smiles, as if knowing about the island was a big deal in the organization.

“Don’t worry! It’s friendly!” Rekka shouted.

At that moment, Naomi used her Telekinesis to disperse the cloud away, revealing the small island inside. At the edge, Naomi noticed Mischa waving her hand while shouting.

“Naomi!!!”

Naomi smiled as she heard the call.

‘Truly, it seems that I can’t get away from Mischa for too long. I said that I would leave her behind on the island, but now I brought the island here, to the base within a few hours after I told her that.’

Naomi thought as she stood up, waving back at Mischa.

“Welcome, Mischa!”
