Because the specific information would not be known until they arrived at the local area, they decided not to disclose it widely until they got the exact information.
"That being said, isn't it possible that information can now be sent with just a click of a button? Is it because the locals look down upon it?"
"That includes you."
It is not impossible to understand what the sharp-tongued Mist said.
Even if the higher-ups officially admit that they are facilitators, the thoughts of everyone in the human army are beyond their control.
As a special guerrilla force under the direct control of the Supreme Commander, it is already difficult to deal with them. It might be annoying if they also bring along suspicious people like "Magician".
"I don't know about this kind of thing."
"you……"
"Okay, okay, I have to get my words back."
Misty reacted to Theon's attitude, and Anna interrupted to continue her explanation.
"Here, we want to confirm two things. The first is to confirm whether you intend to fight with people other than people; the second is to confirm that there is anything that needs attention from people other than people in the ball country."
Anna raised two fingers to briefly indicate the topic.
The first question was pretty straightforward, but for Theon, keeping it simple was fine.
"The answer to the first question is 'it depends on the other party'. Although I will basically obey orders, as a facilitator I also have a certain degree of veto power. Since I don't know the true identity of the other party yet, it's hard to say anything now. But if it feels inconvenient for me, I will exercise my veto power."
Mist looked dissatisfied with Theon's answer, but he didn't complain.
In other words, the principle that human armies cannot issue strong orders to their collaborators will be firmly adhered to even if they are opponents of Theon.
"What's the inconvenience to you?"
"If the other party is not your friend, it would be too dangerous to take action, and there are... situations where you shouldn't take action."
"Shouldn't we take action? Isn't it too dangerous?"
"It's something else. However, there are too many tricks to explain. In short, it won't taste good without it."
Not trying to avoid it, but it’s really hard to explain.
Perhaps sensing this from Xion's appearance, Aki and the others did not seem to continue their pursuit.
"Secondly, what I want to say is that if it is the central region, you should not be so worried."
"This statement seems to have some profound meaning."
"As far as I know, there are no such powerful people in the central region... To be honest, if someone asks me to do anything near Kyoto, I will do my best to stop them."
In this country, whether good or bad, all kinds of people live unknown lives. In a sense, it doesn't matter if it is a world of demons.
There is a reason why the number of invaders is small.
Among them, Kyoto has many shrines and temples, and was the capital of the era when Onmyoji and conjurers were most active. It is the area with the highest concentration of foreigners and related personnel in the world.
"...Is Mitsuki's mansion also in Kyoto?"
"Well, isn't it great? This is a great place with the world's highest level of defense facilities."
That's not the problem. Xiaojing seemed to be able to hear her inner thoughts, but she didn't touch them.
"There are many good guys and bad guys in the ball country. ... Their true identities are not yet known, so there is no room for any reminders or comments."
"That's true."
"...However, I am a little worried about launching an attack on the human army at this time."
"what happened?"
Not to mention Anna, even Ajit and Mist had it written on their faces in a simple and understandable way, saying they didn't understand the meaning.
Theon looked around at these people and spoke again.
"Miranda and the others are the same. People living here should stay away from human society and not interfere with human society. This is basic."
If they could live longer, they would have been living in the Earth Country hundreds of years ago, but they have always hidden their existence and implemented their stance of not interfering with human society.
If this were not the case, before the invaders appeared at the end of the Old Calendar and the existence of the [other world] was discovered ten years ago, humans should have discovered existences other than humans.
Why did they appear here?
And why are they enemies of the human army?
Theon couldn't imagine why.
"Anyway, I don't have enough information...but I want to tell you an iron rule for outsiders."
"...Are there any ironclad rules?"
"It's not difficult, just two things."
Facing Ajid who looked serious, Xion raised two fingers.
"One thing, don't be bound by what you see. Even if it looks like a child, it might actually be a monster over ten meters long."
In particular, monsters from the Earth Kingdom often transform into other forms to deceive humans. Being looked down upon because of appearance is very dangerous.
"There are two points. You cannot be bound by human common sense... Those of you who have read my fighting methods should know that magic can easily surpass human imagination. Please give up "I can't do it" and "it should be no problem" etc. idea.
Even as a "magic user", Theon would have a hard time guessing his trump card when he meets an opponent other than a human for the first time.
In principle, it is necessary to be mentally prepared that "nothing will be surprising".
"Unlike the invaders who fight on instinct, the aliens have the same intelligence as humans... If you don't want to die, please be as vigilant as possible."
He saw that Xion's expression naturally turned serious, and he probably sensed his sincerity.
Xiaojing and the others said nothing, just nodded heavily.
There were no particular problems with the voyage from the Bay Area, and "Mist" arrived at the human military base facing the Suruga Bay of the ball country without incident.
After successfully entering the port, Ajit and Misty immediately went to the base control room to pay tribute to the head of the base's central local branch.
"Mistrudin"'s participation in the battle was a decision made by his superiors, or Christopher, personally, as he had heard beforehand.
This is not what Ajid and the others wanted, so they should not apologize, but they should express sincerity to the local leaders who were forcibly disrupted their plans.
Although there are still several days before the operation is carried out, there is hope to obtain intelligence on the outline of the operation and the target persons as soon as possible.
"Well, you're here."
As soon as they entered the command room, a burly middle-aged man greeted Xiaojing and the others.
Although the eyes staring straight at him are not malicious, they seem to be judging something, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
"I am the special guerrilla force, commander Ajit Mijian."
"I'm Misty Arnold, also deputy commander."
He saluted as a demonstration and reported his name at the same time. The man also reported that he was the head of the branch.
Just a simple handshake and conversation.
"I heard it was a special guerrilla unit with monsters. I was still wondering what kind of weirdo would come. I didn't expect it to be such a serious unit leader, so I felt relieved."
(…Do people around you comment like this?)
The branch chief in front of him was not sarcastic. It seemed that he was really relieved after seeing Ajid and Mist.
Indeed, in the eyes of ordinary soldiers, there is nothing that can be done about the special guerrilla force directly under the direct control of superiors that wanders around with the suspicious character Xion. It is a suspicious force with unknown origins.
However, they have a headache when they think about people around them judging themselves like this.
"I heard that... even the thirteenth technical class has to take care of... Although he is the head of a famous family, he is still very hard at a young age."
"No, they are doing a great job, but they feel the pain of their shortcomings every day."
In fact, from the beginning of "Mist" to now, Ajit has been relying on the people around him.
Needless to say, with the help of Xion's power and knowledge, the feud with Xion due to sensor problems and attempted assassination can also be said to have been resolved with the actions of the Thirteenth Skill Squad.
Although he holds the important position of captain, Aki has not taken any action yet.
"Stop the gossip, let's get to the point."
Under the instruction of the branch head, a monitor switched to a certain screen.
"Is this... a wolf?"
What appeared on the screen was a wolf-like beast with silvery gray fur.
Even so, its size is not that of an ordinary wolf. Judging from the size of the surrounding trees, it should be medium-sized.
"This guy is the target of this crusade."
