The holographic image displayed a young man who in his early twenties. He had a fair skin with a slightly muscular body with short black hair. His appearance may considered extraordinary which would able to steal the hearts of the people.
"Admiral, please tell me that I'm dreaming right now."
"I know how that feel doctor but you're not the only one with that face."
Both men had a shocked expression, displaying before others.
"Sir, please pi-"
"Ouch! Ouch! It hurt, sir!"
"Whose is it that ask me to pinch him to confirm whether he's dreaming or not."
The admiral was not only pinching the doctor's cheek but also pull it, adding more pain to it. The doctor just follow around as the admiral pull his cheek left and right.
"Alpha, run the matching sequence at once."
[At once, Admiral!]
The AI immediately went on to matching the feature of the patient to the figure that displayed before them.
[The boy's matching with him is…]
The tense was building up as the AI was announcing the result with the person in the archive.
Everyone grabbed onto something firmly awaiting the result that may change the course of their life.

On Raven, Ryuma was busy handling the administration affair until an interruption came in through the automatic doors.
"Greeting, Aniue."
Ryuma lifted his head, allowing the appearance of the visitor to emerge in his sight. The familiar female elf caused his stoic face to change a bit. His dragon's lips was widen a bit allowing the elf to feel familiar feeling from him.
"What's the important issue that you wanted to see me?"
The elf did not hear Ryuma's question because of the works in her mind. Ryuma did not pressure her instead he waited for her mind to calm down.

'The little princess… always busy with work.'
'I wonder who did she takes after?'
Finally, the girl snapped into reality when she noticed the holographic tablet on her hand. She immediately pull the tablet before swipping to the issue.
"Aniue, there's something that require your immediate attention."
"Here."
She swipped the issue from her adjustable tablet toward the larger holographic screen. The archive had been accessed by a certain person who had access to it.
"Horus…"
"Correct, Aniue."
"Horus, is currently cross matching someone."
"I wonder how is he able to open the Level 7 Chrome Archive?"
"I'm the one who gave him the authorisation code."
"But… why?"
"You'll see."
Suddenly, a beeping sound emerged from the desk console. Both sights turn towards the console with a smile on Ryuma's face as if he had anticipated it. He pressed a holographic console using his nail.
"Aniue. Aneue. Good news."
The familiar figure emerged from the holo projector.
"What is it, Horus?"
"It's…"
"Yes?"
"It's…"
Suddenly, Ryuma interrupted the conversation when he made his statement. His stoic face had been displayed despite the fact that he was smiling a moment ago.
"Just tell your sister already, Horus."
"Why aren't you curious, Aniue?"
"I already know about it."
"It's about Father isn't it, Horus?"
Horus nodded unconsciously and rapidly but it did not hide the shocking face from the duo sight. The eyes of Horus were so wide that the eyeballs might popped out from their respective sockets.
"How… did you-"
"Have you forgotten something important about me, dear baby brother?"
"Oh yeah! Excuse me then."
"Horus out."
The communication with Horus ended when Ryuma reminded him of something that require the former's attention.

Then, Susan snapped her fingers figuring out the missing puzzle. The reason why Ryuma had been obsessed with cards containing symbols before.
Ryuma once said that the world will be shaking upon the return of the former rebel of God. Storm will emerge unlike never before in the history of the world.
Recently, the five stars had been born during the period. This was considered a bad omen to majority of the galatic civilisations but to this particular superpower, it was only a sign of the return of their only monarch.
This particular nation might be the first nation in the galactic history to have only one monarch in its entire history.
"Aniue, you don't mean…"
"Yes. Yes. And absolutely yes, Susan."
"Your favourite person in the whole family."
The words "favourite person" sent an unknown anger to the elf maiden. She clicked her tongue in dissaproval but could not voice it out because the person was someone special to the four of them.
"Come on, now."
"You're always the person who receive the most love among us."
"Not even our baby brother, the youngest one gets that much love from him."
"But he's always annoying no matter how many times he return!"
Ryuma noticed something "unusual" appearing on her face which gave him an idea.
"Owh! Looks like someone said that she hated him yet she always blushes around him despite being a family."
"A-Aniue, what are you getting at!"
Her brother just gave a devilish smirk to her despite his habit of making a stoic face around the people.
"Everyone has something they shy about but don't let that weakness overpower you."
"Sometimes, Susan. People just need time to adjust."
"Good night, Susan."
The draconian patted his sister head before he left the office.

Meanwhile, Livius who had just awakened from his sleep was wondering in his medical tank which had being left alone in his own private room.
It felt lonely until the medical robot came in to check on his status. The rapid beeping sound was the result of the machine collecting data from the tank.
'Huh?'
'That's strange. When did they moved me into this nice room.'
Soon, the doctor came in with his companian as the former began to examine him. The strangest thing that Livius felt was that he was being treated like VIP instead of normal treatment like any ordinary people.
The duo went toward him before they gave a gentleman bow in front of the latter.
""Greetings, Father!""
