More than six thousand feet, the high altitude brings thin air and icy temperatures. In addition, it is located at the southernmost point of the entire planet, and the white snow is rolled in with a bone-chilling cold feeling.
This place should be a desolate and desolate place. If the water is clear, there will be no fish. If the water is too pure and white, it can no longer accommodate life.
However, the silver-gray metal plates build a flat cylinder building in this deserted place, and the warm lights emitted by the life support device clearly prove the flavor of human civilization in this uninhabited land.
"Well, today is also a day of heavy snow."
In a warm building, a man enjoying the heating leaned against the wall, completely ignoring the cold touch coming from the place where his shoulders were in contact with the wall. While talking to himself, he looked out with his black eyes.
On the wall beside him, his eyes seemed to see through the metal plate, locked on the outside world where the wind and snow were constantly blowing.
Only those who have personally experienced a snowstorm in Antarctica will understand what a despairing sight it is. The visibility is less than one meter, and the gray color is mixed with dirty white.
Fortunately, it was just an ordinary snowstorm today, the visibility was pretty good, and I could vaguely see the blue sky.
What's even more fortunate is that the man is in an absolutely safe area separated from this cold wall and does not need to experience the bone-chilling cold.
Unfortunately, just because he was hiding inside the safe wall, he did not have the opportunity to enjoy the snowy scenery. All he could see was the cold wall panels. He could know the weather outside today entirely because the smart terminal in his hand was displaying the information outside the museum.
weather.
He is wearing a white top and black trousers underneath. The color combination is simple and the cut is close to the body. The collar is decorated with a logo composed of the letter g and the letter o. This is this place - the Human Security Agency.
The symbol of [Chaldea] is the so-called Chaldea [Master Uniform].
The man's name is Yagi Yussai.
Just like the association brought by this name with black hair and black eyes, he is an Oriental, to be precise, a Japanese. He comes from an island country in the Far East. He was selected because of a certain [qualification] and became this person about half a year ago.
A member of Chaldea, receiving training.
He is easily over 1.8 meters tall. Among Japanese whose average height is not outstanding, he stands out from the crowd.
He has black hair, black eyes, and yellow skin, and he always has a smile on his lips. Is this expression a feeling of self-confidence from the bottom of his heart? Or does it mean that he is too relaxed and makes people feel frivolous? That is not known.
Now, he is concentrating on enjoying the rare leisure time, and the comfort of being lazy at work is written in the corners of his brows and eyes.
Suddenly, the sound of clattering footsteps sounded from the corridor, and his eardrums caught the sound, causing him to divert his attention. This clattering sound, which could only be made by the heels of women's high heels, immediately attracted his attention.
attention.
"Ah...Yagi-senpai..."
Seemingly noticing him, the purple-haired girl who hurried over slowed down her pace, and the rattling sound in the corridor immediately weakened. Sure enough, the sound that disturbed her peaceful rest was definitely made by her.
"Yo, Matthew."
He greeted her familiarly.
Based on everyone's ability and simulated battle results, Chaldea divided the 47 elites scheduled to be selected into groups. The seemingly weak girl in front of him now is one of the famous members of Group A, Matthew Kirilet.
.
She is a girl with a petite figure and short hair that is closer to pink and purple than silver. For some reason, she always has a sense of humility similar to inferiority. Although she is an elite in Group A, she does not think highly of herself at all.
, on the contrary, she gave people a timid feeling. It can be said that Yagi Xuezhai had a very deep impression on her.
Matthew's height is much shorter than Yagi Yussai's. Standing in front of him, he only reaches his chest. Petite girls always tend to arouse others' desire to protect. Especially cute girls. They are gray.
A jacket spliced with white, a black shirt and a red tie underneath. This layered color combination made her already slim figure even more feminine.
What puzzles Yagi is why Matthew is so inconspicuous. Generally speaking, such a cute girl should be the one who is admired by boys? But he has never been to a normal place.
school, I don’t know what’s going on specifically...
By the way, Yagi Yukisai is a member of Team B.
Even the leader of Group B is still lower than Group A. He always depends on the faces of those [Elites], not to mention the [Magicians], who always take honor, something that cannot be eaten, too seriously.
, making him look like a [caste] in the feudal era. Matthew's attitude of talking to him without any pretense was a blessing to him.
"What's wrong? I rarely see you so panicked."
Seeing the panic in her eyebrows, Yagi Xuezhai kept a relaxed smile and asked her.
He and Matthew had met many times, but they didn't talk much, and he couldn't say they knew each other well. However, in his impression, Matthew always kept his head down, and looked like a good girl who didn't talk much.
It will overlook her and give people the feeling of being inconspicuous and unshakable, like a pebble.
By the way, there will be a very important meeting next. Chaldea’s combat objectives and content will be explained at this meeting.
It's a pity that Yagi Xuezai didn't prepare to go in advance. He would rather stay in the corridor and watch the fake snow scene in the terminal than face the arrogant female director - he always felt that she would scold him head-on.
A meal.
In other words, Yagi Xuezhai is very free now, and when people are bored, they always want to find something to do.
Sensing his tendency to help, Matthew gave him a slight nod of respect:
"Yes, because Fufu disappeared. I'm looking for it."
A rather cute strange name came out of Matthew's mouth.
Fufu sounds like the name of a pet. In fact, it is indeed not a human being. According to Matthew's description, it is a creature that is similar to a squirrel and a bit like a dog, with long ears that are a bit like a rabbit.
, in short, it is a furry and soft creature.
This little thing seems to be living freely in Chaldea, but except for Matthew, few people have seen it, and the same goes for Yagi Yuzhai. He accepted it as Matthew's [Quirk].
It's normal, magicians have their own quirks to a greater or lesser extent! After all, they are a collection of [weirds]! Even if Matthew is a girl who likes to imagine pets out of thin air and caress the imaginary pets...
…Isn’t this even cuter?
"Then, shall I help you search together?"
He came over to talk to me clearly.
"Well, aren't there going to be meetings later?"
Matthew vaguely showed a hint of rejection. She always did this, with a humble attitude, and kept a distance from everyone on the premise of not causing trouble to others.
"Isn't it because of the meeting that we have to find Fufu quickly? Mr. Matthew from [Group A]."
He classified himself within the scope of "us" without any trace, and at the same time pointed out Matthew's identity. The identity of "Group A" was emphasized, making Matthew lower his head silently.
As an elite member of Group A, Matthew cannot miss the upcoming battle meeting. Even if Yagi Yuksai doesn't go, it will be fine, but if Matthew of Group A doesn't go, the problem will be much more serious.
Seeing his persistence, Matthew nodded weakly without expressing any objection. The two of them walked side by side in the corridor of Chaldea, speeding up their pace and searching.
