"If I could have one more chance to tell him how sorry I'm... I wouldn't miss it for the world" he used the back of his hand to wipe the tears off his cheeks.

"Which is why..."

*

"Live Hiro and find the truth... I believe you will and I will always love you, stay strong Hiro"

*

His dad's dying wish rang in his head once again.

"... i shall honor his last wishes and find out the truth" he said with serious looks.

'The truth? Haruto's last wish?' Anzai thought puzzled.

Operation Base 

Kaede was the only one left in the base, she heard the conservation between Hiro and Anzai.

"The truth?" She said puzzled as her eyes turned hard.

"General Haruto last words?" She said faintly. 'What's this feeling' she thought with shaky eyes, a feeling that General Haruto might know the mystery of the virus spread, it was the only thing she could relate by Hiro's words, there was no other way to see it.

***

'The truth' Anzai thought deeply, a memory of when Haruto called after years they haven't spoken, it was so sudden, they lost contact but somehow Haruto managed to trace him. They didn't talk much, he just asked how he was doing and his fiancée, he could still remember the sound of his voice, it sounded worried like something was on his mind and Anzai asked him if everything was okay.

'Could Haruto know something that we don't' his eyes drift to Hiro. 'About the virus... or could it be about the X file?' His eyes shakes.

'No it couldn't be, it can't be related that was a long time ago, there's no way it can be it' he thought for certain. 'The truth, why would Haruto tell Hiro something like that? What's the mystery behind it'

Hiro sluggishly rise to his feet.

"I'm going in first, sir" he said dully before walking back to his tent leaving Anazi in a puzzled state.

'Haruto' Anazi thought deeply. 'What did you know that you couldn't tell me' his eyes shakes.

*

At sunrise, the bird Chirping sound became loud, at the sound Hiro was awake. He sat up abruptly inside his tent.

"Dammit I woke up late, I hope General Anazi isn't angry" he said unzipping his tent, stepping out.

He was just on a shirt and military pants similar to that of Anzai's attire.

He caught sight of Anzai standing at the far east side, not covered in trees.

He slowly approach there.

"Sorry sir i wasn't up early" he said.

"Your blood weapon" Anazi began not facing him, he had his back turned.

"Lemme see it"

Hiro did as he was told, bring out the shrieked black stick from his waist pouch, at a press it increases in length.

That moment Anzai turns to him.

"Make it shift" he adds sternly.

Hiro knew what he meant.

Hiro too a deep breath, focusing his blood flow to the sticks.

Anzai watches as his blood veins flowed into the stick, it covered in a dark blue aura swirling around, it then shifts, he wasn't holding unto anymore but rather a sword, not just any sword, from tip to handle, it is approximately five to six feet long, the body smooth, silver in color, the edge of the blade slightly slanted, the handle dark red in color, the edges of the handle extended, in a curve style, the center of the sword had a small round wheel embodied in it, spinning with an automatic start-up sound, powered by his blood.

"Amazing this is the power of Kimura Hiro's blood weapon" Hachiro said adjusting his glasses, he has never seen it up close before.

"With that sword he was able to slay two Alpha" Touka said with shaky eyes as her head replayed the event.

"Kimura Hiro is surely something else" Kaede said with curious eyes, her mind still lingering to last night.

"Sp3: level 3" Kashi said with shaky eyes. 'Kimura Hiro's level' he thought.

Mount Sefuri 

Anazi watches Hiro's sword intensely, the dark blue aura surrounding around it, funny he felt a familiar feeling to it and it made him more curious.

"General Anzai" Hiro called to his attention.

Anzai broke out of his trance facing Hiro.

'Why is he like this today? He looks spaced out, its unlike him' Hiro thought puzzled, or was it about what they talked last night? Was he feeling bad about it? He couldn't tell but he knew something was bothering him, but he couldn't tell what.

"In your two battles how did you kill the Alpha?"

"Well it was mostly by my sword absorbing the raw energy the Alpha shoots from its mouth, i never tried it with my sword bare" Hiro said.

"I see so now you don't know if your sword without the raw energy can make the cut?"

"Yes sir," Hiro replied his face dropping in the process.

"So if you were in a situation where you can't absorb raw energy, what do you do then?"

Hiro's lips pressed in a thin line as his grip on his sword tightens.

The silence was all the answer he needed.

"Your sword" Anzai began with a stretched out hand.

Hiro gave it to Anzai, but the moment his hand made contact with it, it shifts back to the stick.

'It shifted' Anzai thought with puzzled eyes.

Hiro was stunned by this.

"I didn't know the sword could do that" he said surprised.

"It appears so" Anazi said observing the now black stick.

"In your hands its a weapon that can slay Alpha but in others its a stick" he adds rotating the stick around his hand weightlessly, with one plunge he sent the stick to a tree, the tip duck into the tree branch, hard.

"How many techniques do you have for your sword, i heard you guys came up with it to increase the intensity of you attacks against the Kaijus" he said.

"Um none" Hiro said, he has never thought of any techniques, non made use of any Ten wrote down for him.

"So you just basically swing the sword around hoping to get a hit then".

Hiro gulps hard, Anazi words were true.

Anzai sighs.

"Judging from your silence it seems like it then".

"But..." Hiro was about to protest but he shut his mouth close.

"Kimura Hiro you're basically in Sp3: level 3" Anzai began in a serious tone.

Hiro froze at his words.

"Sp3? But I thought I was in an unknown stage, how come?"

Anzai placed his hand behind his back in an upright position.

"More studies were made on the virus and it turns out we got it all wrong, it wasn't the stages that was changing but the levels, the virus has sub levels and you're currently in the highest one which made you able to kill the Alpha's because you rank more than them" he explained turning to Hiro blood weapon.

"The rest are at lower levels, Sp3: level 0" he walks up to the stick.

Hiro was stunned by the info.

"But I still can't wrap my head around the fact..." he said taking out the stick from the tree branch.

"...that in spite of all these, the Alpha still shows an upper hand when you're against them" he states facing Hiro.

Who sweated at his words.

"It could only mean that the current level you're in, you haven't still grasp the full potential of it, all you have just displayed are raw powers just like the Kaijus... hopefully the Kaiju's are mindless beast's but with their animalistic urge despite the levels they are in they are able to manipulate it without question" he said throwing the stick at Hiro.

He caught it in a swift motion with both hands as it shifts back to sword.

"Are you saying because they are less human they are more powerful than us even at an lower level" Hiro said gulping.

"Yes Hiro, but by far the Alpha's have encounter are Sp3: level 1 and Sp3: level 2, any level higher than that is something to be considered monstrous, they have abandoned humanity, they attack solely on impulse and animalistic thoughts... which is why Hiro your level is just for show" Anzai said darkly.

Hiros body trembled at his words.

"Amazing..  General Anzai is able to deduce all that by himself" Kashi said amazed.

"General Anzai has always been able to see the pattern, he has always been able to detect weakness from a mere glance" Tori said sternly.

"And right now with his look on Hiro" he adds for certain.

"He's able to see many weakness on Hiro"

"Ho...even with the strongest level he's still at liability but as General Anzai mentioned earlier, the Kaiju's are still able to overcome them by strength because of their animalistic nature is he trying to say that Hiro and the others should abandon their humanity to be able to fight the Kaijus at the same level of strength?" Kaede reasoned puzzled.

"And there you're wrong Kaede-sama" Yukio spoke up.

Their attention drifts to him.

"General Anzai  is just trying to let them know what they are up against".

Hachiro adjusted his glasses.

"Soldiers against fierce beasts" he said for certain.

"Bio-genetics against their opposite" Yukio corrected.
