“Yeah? I’m number one, that is, the strongest unit?”
“That’s right. The whole corps is you.”
“I knew it.”

My head is more complicated than ever, but Eve laughed when she heard this story. And what’s even worse is that I’m not stupid and I don’t know anything.“What’s the matter? In the first place, I had no intention of avoiding a fight.”
“I think this game system was designed to start with this junction, Eve, and make you the strongest.”
I sighed as I looked at the imposing Eve. Even if you repeat the cycle, you won’t be able to change the already designed system.
The game has caused not only the participants, but also the entire faction to which the participants belong, to be engulfed in great chaos.
And now, he’s spurring and competing with everyone, including Eve, to find the ultimate winner.
“That purpose, our real enemy. Talkative.”
[Not yet]
“Ha. There are variables. When does that happen?”
I’m bored and I’m going crazy Well, if it’s true that the series repeats itself, then the person who is more frustrated than anyone else is the observer.
“It doesn’t matter. Whatever the system, I will continue to grow and eat as I am now, because that is my essence.”
“I know that.”
A bitter laugh came out. The ideal solution would be to convince Eve to stop the invasion and erosion.
But that’s impossible. For Eve, growth and evolution, gluttony and war are like breathing. Blocking it, which is the significance of her own existence, is like telling Eve to just quietly commit suicide.
[Then, what plans do you have for both Eve and the world?]
“You have no choice but to strike a balance.”
After a while, I clenched my teeth and shook my head. Either way, if the end of the game is doom, there is only one answer. Not ending the game.
This game will never end in its final state.
[Then the necessary conditions for that are]
“Balance. Neither side can attack the other hastily. In my opinion, three powers: the Union, the Federation, and Eve.”
I brought up a hypothesis that I had thought about in advance, just in case.
The three forces, the Federation, the existing human force, and the Eve, which were united by the attack of the corps centered on the existing anti-confederation forces, check and balance each other.
“It’s an emergency call! Come together!”
However, as if the game system did not enter the final chapter for nothing, variables began to pop up here and there.
“…what do you mean? The Federation is going to all-out war. Casaras? Who are they?”
“They are aliens who have had power in this universe for a long time.”
The executive of the Federation that summoned the Hunters explained something to us in a trembling voice. It was hard to believe, but at the same time it was easy to believe.
The existence of an extraterrestrial civilization was certainly surprising, but after all, the Federation was also an alien from our point of view, as Earthlings.
“I don’t know why they suddenly attacked us. But in less than a day, the number of fronts grew to dozens. There are many places that need urgent support!”
The executive explaining it even stomped his feet. I heard that his hometown is also under attack, and that’s probably why.
“You’ve all done a great job here. So our headquarters has decided to send some of you to places that are in urgent need of assistance right now. Please lend me your strength once again.”
He eventually bowed his head to us. Apart from his sad story, we looked into each other’s eyes and fell into silence for a while.
I came here voluntarily, and I was in a position where I had to give up, but it’s not easy to voluntarily enter a dangerous battlefield.
“I’ll go.”
At that time, the first person to raise a hand was Cha Ji-yeon, a woman with light blue hair. It seemed that she had already made up her mind.
“it’s okay?”
“Huh? Ugh…”

Me and Eve went to see Cha Ji-yeon separately. It was because her expression was speechless.As she sat alone, her eyes fluttered violently. That day, it looked worse than the day he told me that he was having a hard time.
“Did the player do it by any chance?”
“Huh?!”
When I asked her just in case, her body trembled in surprise. If this was the case, it was impossible to hide it no matter how much he tried to hide it.
I shut my mouth in sorrow. She couldn’t understand the feeling of having to be dragged around forcibly against her will.
“I, I…”
Eventually she burst into tears, got up from her seat, and ran away to another place.
“It’s such a heavy burden.”
“Well, I have a different opinion.”
I simply assumed that she was under extreme stress due to her non-voluntary actions. However, Eve, who was watching quietly, shook her head, saying that was not the case.
“Anyway, he’s a guy who wanted to protect people and die on the battlefield. There’s no way he could have been hit like that by simply moving the battlefield.”
“What are you talking about?”
“Rather, the opposite of what I had hoped for happened…and I can only think of it like that.”
Eve presented the results of analyzing Cha Ji-yeon’s psychological state with her own abilities. My face hardened. If it’s a player’s instruction that goes against her will, who was exhausted and struggling, then no.
“Did you give the order to survive on the battlefield? Why?”
“I don’t know about that. I don’t know if I’ll find out if I watch closely.”
I remembered what her player was. He has high self-esteem, is cold-hearted, and thoroughly uses his units as long-term horses.
When war between units on Earth became impossible with the advent of the Guardian Alliance, they even sold them as mercenaries without hesitation.
“Like you said, I think we need to know what the situation is now.”
Exactly what kind of alien civilization called Kasaras were terrified by the people of the League, and how did they suddenly start a war like this?
And…if they have anything to do with the game. First off, the timing was perfect. If the game system reacts in surprise, I think it should be this size.

“…to be honest, most of their skills are better than ours.”
Inside the ship we were rushed to leave, an official of the Federation gave us a brief explanation.
As I listened to that explanation, I looked at Cha Ji-yeon’s reaction. She was still sitting there blankly, as if her soul had gone out somewhere.
“The particularly annoying part is that all of them above the warrior rank have special superpowers. Uh, just like you guys. Maybe they’ll ask the Earth Guardians Coalition for extra help.”
“Then why did they attack you?”
“Yeah, that’s still good for me.”
At Eve’s cold question, he scratched his head and put on an embarrassed expression. As you can see from his appearance, information is not being properly shared now. Or, that information was intentionally blocked.
‘…The situation has suddenly changed, but in this case, it can be used sufficiently.’
In any case, it was the same situation where those who were trying to win were hit hard on the brakes.
Eve decided that the situation was not bad for her. Now is the time to switch to an offensive against the Alliance by loading new tactics and systems, so if the Alliance falls into chaos, it is to your advantage.
I also had complicated thoughts. Clearly, the observer was constantly conveying the suggestion that a variable was needed to twist the future, and that the variable had to develop sufficient strength.
Judging from the changes in the system that started at the same time as the war started, the war between the League and the alien civilization called Kasaras was highly likely to be a ‘original scheduled’ battle.
“We’ve got one more piece of information now. Top secret information that they might be targeting allied planets like Rakum, from which we just left. Right now, the entire Alliance’s reserve fleet is launching as well. To protect them,”
“…Then why the hell are they targeting them?”
Lieutenant Levik gave us another piece of information with a stiff face.
‘Of course, there must be some of them involved in the game.’
I came up with the most sensible idea. As if there was a thick fog, there were many hidden worlds that could not be caught even with the advanced detection technology of the Federation.
It was entirely the role of the game that those worlds were connected together. The power brought about by the union of completely different worlds that have developed differently.
If that’s what the aliens covet, it seemed like a good enough motive. Right now, both the Federation and the Federation are beginning to build up their strength in that way in a new era.
‘…Then the Earth is also dangerous, isn’t it?’
“ah.”
At that moment, Eve’s hive-conscious muttering words opened my eyes.
