That was a strange feeling.

There are several human beings named myself, each carrying out a division of labour. However, we shared all the sensations that each of us had gained, and there was no such thing as a delay in information.

"Wide...... more can be done"

As Taro looks over BISHOP's computer space, he replicates a new function into the open space. And when I placed my new self there to monitor it, I decided to jump to the next space.

"More, more"

The total number of airframes that have to be monitored is 324. I had assigned eight functions per one, but Taro wanted to increase them to at least 14. The more functions that control the thrusters and various sensors, the more accurate and agile the fuselage can be. I've never had as many as 4536 control functions run in parallel before, but I felt like I could do it now.

"I hit a bee even though it's big. Look at that."

"This one stopped out of fuel. Can I help you somewhere?

"Bingo!! Sink medium."

"Pretty intense interception. Be careful, all right?

"I dropped another one. Easy."

Talk to ourselves, be evil, laugh at each other. I didn't know if that was necessary or not, but I did anyway.

targets and the intrusive rays that come from them. Move your own machine with propulsion and shield, just aim forward. What I was doing was extremely simple and I had nothing to think about. When I had lunch with someone, it was no different than having a spoon, chewing, swallowing and enjoying a conversation.

"Awesome, cozy place."

We'd be kings here.

"It's good to be out of the way."

There were mares and plums in Taro's eyes, and he seemed to be talking about something, but nothing bothered him. There were two worlds in sight, but the BISHOP world seemed like a better place for Taro. No hunger, no worries, everything was simple there. Reaching a certain goal is all that matters. Other than that, I didn't even exist.

"What's going on with the contents of the function?

"You just have to peek and see"

"The functions you've used are rolling. Before auto-destruction."

Taro glanced at it as he drew the function that was nearby. Inside the thruster control functions were tightly packed with small instructional sentences and variables, updated 120 times faster per second. Each order statement is very simple and whether certain conditions are met or not. Whether to switch on some device or not. Whether to apply any arithmetic to the variable. That's what it was.

"So, what's in the order?

"I don't. Let's see."

"I'm here all the time. You should know better about this place."

Taro tore it apart by force when he turned to the severely luminous text of the order. It was flooded with glowing particles that could not be counted from the inside, filling Taro's vision like a starry sky. Those particles meant nothing, just how the light was distributed was important. The place where many gathered was 1, and the place where few were 0.

It's like a galaxy.

In a beautiful line of information, Taro can be seen by surprise. It would be nice to spend eternity here like this.

"You just have to close your eyes and let yourself go"

Vision blurs and distortions, and intense drowsiness strikes.

"You get a perpetual robbery."

Fold your knees without force and lie down on the ground. I was so well until earlier, and now I was full of fatigue.

"We worked hard. Let's get some rest."

To the fascinating suggestion, Taro slowly closed his eyes.

The one who was beside him disappears as a particle, and one, and another, disappears.

Eventually Taro, who was innumerable, became only alone.

"That's it, end of story"

The glittering particles sink and disappear.

One in that galaxy.

Just one, blue glowing particle.

"... I have to go home"

Open your eyes and force your body to cause you to struggle even to move your fingers.

He had something to do, and even here, where everything was supposed to be done, he couldn't do all that.

"To Earth...... to Earth!!

"Kaha!! Ah, ha!!

Wake up your body and swallow big, tall. Red stained vision reflected the bridge of the pram, with Marr's face right beside him distorting his face worryingly.

"Taylor, did you notice? It's me, you know? Here, wipe your nosebleed."

Gently wipe Taro's face with the towel Marl was holding. The towel quickly stained bright red, and Taro was surprised at the amount.

"Beauty has decided not to forget... that's a great amount. Is nosebleeds this much?

"I don't know. Just lay still because you might get anaemia... and tell me as soon as you feel anything unusual?

"Heck...... was it a little too much to do?

Taro whines to no one. There Xiao Mei rolls at her feet saying, "Maybe so".

"Because in a period of intense tension, we went through a series of massive operations. The function of tiredness in the brain does not exist, except for other areas. Thoughts don't just use the brain, Mr. Taylor."

"Well, yeah. I'll be careful... but I'm sorry I forgot something."

Sleeping blurry on the seat, Taro overlooking the ceiling. The back of my nose hurts and I feel hot.

"Something important... well, come on. You're hungrier than that. Even some pasta...... Aah!!

With a loud voice, Taro wakes his body up frightened.

"Enzio!! What happened to the war? Well, when? Where are we!?

"I think this pasta bastard is just saying too much, Mr. Taylor"

"I didn't say it!! It's true I remembered in pasta though!!

"What's going on, you're all over it. Don't you remember?

To Marl's statement, he said, "Huh?" and Taro floating question marks.

"A truce is currently under consideration for a surrender recommendation, Mr. Taylor. It is on the EAP side that I proposed, and it seems that within the near future the Expeditionary Force will be a flow of disarming. By the way, it's been about two hours since you attacked with a massive warhead weapon."

"You've been losing your mind. I... surrender. You won."

"Yep. It's been tough without you, no more. I managed because Bella was in charge of Lynn's extraordinary command, but if she hadn't, it would have been over."

"Haha, evil no... after all, as in the operation?

"Yeah, you will, Mr. Taylor. After that attack by modified lightning, the fleet flips again. It led to a brawl, a melee between battleships. It was the EAP that controlled this, but it took a lot of sacrifice."

"Seventy-five ships sank in total. Among them… the…"

Finally, Marl, I take my gaze off. When Taro saw what it meant, he returned a small "so-called".

"We've sunk eleven ships altogether... you're halfway there"

Access the hull data with BISHOP and select the battle status item. Eleven columns of fleet lists lined up with letters displayed in red. The list of casualties of war stated 587.

"The second fleet is almost devastated. Mr. Bella, I've focused the damage on my own fleet."

Taro anticipated that he would have thrown his troops first on the front line because of Bella, who was bound by things like responsibility and Faceko. Her people weren't the kind to refuse it, and doing so would have increased the overall morale of the EAP.

"............... Taylor?

Marl looks at me worried about Taro, who was depressed.

"Oh, no. It's okay. We're all ready, and I didn't think we'd win unharmed."

When Taro answered that, he fell on his back to the seat with his hands together. He remained silent for a while, but he remembered the blue particles he had found in his earlier dream.

"... why"

A voice so small that no one can hear you.

"Why do I... want to go back to Earth so badly?

Taro liked his life in the Galactic Empire. There are people who need me, and there are people who need me. Indeed, there is something strong in him called homesickness. But when asked if he wanted to throw them and hit them back to Earth, that was questionable. Taro is not the age at which his parents and brothers really need him, and now even his memory is obscured.

But still, I had a good understanding that I would probably go for the earth.

"It's not on the level of thoughts or anything...... mission or anything like that? What's the motive?

Taro continued to ask himself unanswered, but eventually that was interrupted by a word from Xiaomei.

"Mr. Taylor, the Enzio Expeditionary Force has accepted the offer to surrender. Mr. Lynn, and Admiral Lorenzo."

Taro replies somewhat fed up with Xiaomei's report, "Am I going to join you too?"

"Yes, hello. Everyone loves Taylor. What is it? Basically, I think you should have Little Tokyo and Mr. Takasaki discuss it with them."

When Taro bursts out like that, he hears Lynn's dry laugh "" Ahaha... "" from across the line.

"" The other side said something about it, so please. And it doesn't mean you can't turn in the biggest contributor to victory. ""

"I was just in charge of the planning and execution. Everything from preparation to investment, I have an EAP. Yan. The warhead's got a lightning bolt on it from Enzio, and we're only paying for a control comm device, right?

"" That's right, but it can't be without Mr. Taylor, can it? Money and labor work, but we can't control warheads. "

"Mm-hmm. But you don't really feel it when you're confused. I did it... well, no. Are you connected already?

"" Yes, "Lynn said to Taro's question. Immediately BISHOP will inform you that a new participant has been added to the voice communication.

"Hi. I'm Taylor, representing Rising Sun, and I'm letting you do an alliance with EAP. I don't know..."

Tailang separates once and searches for words.

"Good luck to each other. I know there's a lot to think about, but let's put that behind us."

"" Hmm... this is Lorenzo from the First Expeditionary Fleet of the Enzio Alliance. Got it... but did I lose such a young man? ""

A voice that seeped remorse. When Taro smiled back at it, he decided to get down to business.

"If you hadn't followed me near the planet, you probably would have done it without being able to do anything... er, I also told Lynn earlier, what can I do for you? By authority, you don't have that big of a thing, do you?

"" Hey, what. It's not a bad thing to look at the other guy's face. ""

"Yes?"

"" You are peculiar and brilliant. After the war, I'll give you the status and treatment you deserve. ""

"No, what are you talking about? It wasn't an exclusive war, it was a total defeat, was it? Enzio will be dismantled in ten or nine years."

"" Hehe, I guess. We just lost the meet. I don't understand why that is tied to the victory of war in equal measure. ""

Taro has some anxiety in his confident voice. It was off-target for a bluff, and the intent could not be read.

"Morning, Taylor. I just want to ask you something, okay?

Taro, who was unsure what to answer, has a voice from behind. Looking back, I could see Etta rubbing her eyes like she was asleep. "I'll see you later because I'm busy," Taro replied softly, but Etta lost her words to what she continued to say.

"All the way over there. There's already a house in Katsushika. There's a hidden black ship right around the corner. Like always, don't you have to find it and get rid of it?
