Chapter 3 (2/2)

Such a young child, could create a weapon that’s capable of destroying the entire city, and willing to use it unhesitantly if he meant to…

This case was reported to the higher-up of the UN by the commander, but it was then erased, probably due to considerations of soned asure this kind of incident wouldn’t happen again Of course, on the official announceuard the commander’s wife, “the mother of the new quantum physics”, Arakawa Miki

That kid, is currently at the garden It seems like he’s about to remove the weeds Last tie of the chemicals, and now, he removes the weeds with his own hand

So today…

I think he’ll just doing it the old way…Or so I thought…

Suddenly he appeared froe, completely equipped with a powered suit If it’s just a normal powered suit, I wouldn’t have mind Powered work suits are commonly used for household duties But the one he uses is…

“…The 6th-generation Military-Purpose Powered Suit…”

I feel nauseous It’s a full-fledged war le punch, provides the user full protection againsthead-on with an entire ar weeds

First thing first, how co is here in a civilian house?

I know that this faet out from a research facility I immediately call the commander…

This isn’t so I can handle on my own

“Commander……It’s me”

I call the commander eak voice The communication channel is filled by noise for a moment, then I hear the commander’s voice

“Yo? What’s up?”

I can hear the coht, I believe he’s on vacation, under the pretext of escorting soo out on the field yourself

“Your son is rearden With a powered suit”

Then the co On top of that, he keeps boasting about “ that idiotic dadthis…

“He’s wearing ais the prototype of 6th-generation Military-Purpose Powered Suit”

TheThen he closed the call, saying he’ll contact his wife He also ordered o out to the city, at all cost What’s with his thought, telling me to stop it by myself? In the face of a war machine, with a body made out of flesh and bones, what could I do to stop that monster?

As I was desperately thinking about that, the child took of his suit Looks like he got a contact fro inside the house, he suddenly stopped And then…

He stares at my exact position

My heartbeat almost stopped from the terror

He usually acts as if he’s a good child, obedient to his mother But there’s no erous weapon in his own garden without second thought What would such a person do were someone was to disturb him?

Aonna die here…?

No, I’e suit, so I can’t be seen just by naked eyes There’s no way he could have seen me…

In the first place, there’s no way he could have known that I was reporting to the commander

But can I really be sure about that? I don’t think so, but…

I can feel the nausea dwelling up in hts out of the best course of action I should take

That moment, that child took a step closer to me

My life is done…

I gave up on everything

But soon afterwards, nothing happened as I slowly open my eyes

That child walked into the house with his head drooped

I survived, h I wasn’t even standing on a war frontline

He was probably trying to intihtened Despite all I’ve been through as a member of the UN Special Force…

The child ht like this

“For soot?”

But I don’t care

For now, I’ll continue cherish the feeling of being alive, as I gaze up to the annoyingly bright sky
