El-Fighter: The Brave New Fighter (Book I)
71. MIRA headquarters building

V-FIGHTER and Rigel, Dullart and DECA-I entered the building simultaneously. V-FIGHTER was very amazed to see the condition of the building is still well maintained even though it was no longer used about 5 years ago. While activating the worker robots that are there, Rigel explained that sometimes he and other former El-Fighters visit this building to avoid being abandoned or used by other irresponsible people

“ I'm really not sure if this deserves to be named after an abandoned building “ Tazuya said

“ Even though it has no longer functioned or functioned since the death of my friends.I still come here to clean or sleep in this place ! Yes, this is for the sake of no bad people who use this place for things that are not important “ Rigel explained while activating the robot workers created by Dennias who used to care for the building

“ What's up ! How are you ! “ Welcome the robots with their cheerful tones

“ Hey heeeeeee~ how are my friends~ it's been a long time I didn't meet you guys~ “ Welcome DECA-I with her cheerful tone

Tazuya watched Inuya who was behind them while watching the atmosphere inside the MIRA building with a confused expression. Tazuya approached Inuya and Langsug asked what he saw that made him look confused while paying attention to the situation in this building

“ Inuya ! What's up ? “

“ Ah ? “

“ Any problem ? “ Ask Tazuya

“ T-no ! “ Said Inuya who immediately made himself look normal again as usual

“ I've seen you wander around this place like a confused person loh~ what is it ? “ Tazuya once again asked Inuya

“ Anuu..entah Tazuya ! The moment I entered this building, I felt suddenly becoming unsettled ! Bu-not ! I feel. It seems that I have seen and entered this building before ! “ Said Inuya who is still confused

“ Hah ? Seriously ? Maybe it's just your feeling ! You yourself also said you never went to an abandoned building alone before meeting us ‘kan ?” Tazuya asked who did not believe what Inuya had said

“ Iyaaa~ only..honest...I seem to have seen this building ! But.where yaaa..” Said Inuya who was still confused

“ Hey you guys ! Let's go with Mr. Rigel on the top floor ! “ Call Ataru to Tazuya and Inuya

“ Ah yes ! Come on Tazuya ! “ Invite Inuya who again behaves himself as before

“ Hmmmmm “ Tazuya said nothing and followed the others to go upstairs

Tazuya and the others entered the meeting room that Nigulas and the others often used to conduct meetings with other El-Fighters. When Tazuya and Inuya entered the room, they were amazed by the atmosphere of the room there which was still neat and some of the technology there could still function properly

“ Kereeeeeeeen ! “ Praise Jubei who directly sits on the sofa of the room

“ It looks like you have a big cost to build this building yes “ Ataru said

“ Mr Rigel! Do you remember some people who helped you and other El-Fighters in making donations and other assistance ? “ Ask Ryuga

“ Sure~ one of them is the richest person in Neo-Asia ! Also-“

“ Ah ! “

( BRUGS! )

“ Inuya ! “ Call Tazuya

“ Wh-why is he ?! “ Tanya Dullart who was shocked to see Inuya suddenly sat down with a heavy breath

While restraining his uneasiness upon entering MIRA building, Inuya suddenly unintentionally saw Rigel's vision as a young child, which shocked him and sat on the floor with a quick breath as if he was attacked by something he did not know. This made Tazuya and the others directly approach him and ask his condition

“ Inuya ! What's up ?! “ Tanya Tazuya who directly approached her

“ Ah ? I'm.i'm...Mr. Rigel..you..” Said Inuya who was still confused by what had just happened

“ You're okay ? “ Ask Rigel who directly approached Inuya

“ Yes ! I'm okay ! “

“ Tazuya ! Take the bottled water for him that was on the meeting table ! “ Rigel orders to Tazuya

“ Okay ! “

Inuya was still confused as to what he had just seen. When Rigel asked again, Inuya said that he was fine and probably just a little dizzy because he thought about the Math task of Mother Morgana

“ You made us anxious Namidashi ! “ Said Ryuga

“ You look like you were attacked by the witchcraft of someone ! Is that true ?! “ Tanya Jubei with her panicked tone

“ No no ! There is no such thing as a santet here ! Haduu ! Don't tell me anything weird ! “ Gerutu Inuya who is annoyed with the words Jubei

“ Hey ! I'm worried you know ! “ Jubei replies with a shout towards Inuya

“ Now drink you ! “ Tazuya said while giving a drinking bottle to Inuya

“ You are sure you are okay Nak Inuya ? “ Ask Rigel to Inuya

“ Ya~ I am fine “ Inuya replied in a slow tone while drinking the water Tazuya gave

“ Sure ? “

“ Y-ya ! I'm fine ! I just had a lot of thoughts because of the assignment from Mom Morgana at school “ Gumam Inuya

“ Aaaah so yes ! I can't believe you're being a smart kid worried about your value” said Tazuya, who believes Inuya's words

“ Yaaa ! That's ! Was it wrong of me to be a good student in class ? “ Asked Inuya with his sarcastic tone as usual

Ataru suddenly sensed the arrival of Oxtoroo and Sampson through his future vision and directly warned him to the others. Hearing the warning from Ataru Rigel finally tells the others to be in their respective positions

“ Ah ! They will be here soon ! “ Said Ataru who got a vision of the future about the arrival of Oxtoroo and Sampson

“ Oh ! Alright ! Everyone let's prepare in their respective positions according to my direction now ! “ Rigel told them all

“ Ready ! “

“ Tazuya...Inuya..follow me ! “

“ Yes Mr Rigel ! “ Said Tazuya and Inuya simultaneously to accompany him to welcome Oxtoroo and Sampson

Not long after, Oxtoroo and Sampson finally reached the MIRA building with their teleportation medals. When they reached MIRA building, Rigel immediately greeted them at the front door of MIRA building along with Tazuya and Inuya who were behind them

(Yahoooooooooooooooo)

“ Is here ? “ Ask Sampson

“ It looks like so ! “ Said Oxtroo

“ Finally you guys are coming too ! “ Welcome Rigel with the two Thetoid youths

“ Is it true that you sent us that message ? “ Ask Oxtoroo in a serious tone

“ That's right ! Who else sent that message besides me anyway ! I purposely wrote it down in the language of my planet so that you could know that I was the one who gave you the message ! “ Tell Rigel

“ So “ Say Oxtoroo briefly

“ Where are your silver-haired girlfriends ? “ Ask Tazuya who is aware that Swift Polly did not come along with them

“ Swift Polly arrested and punished for the failure of this mission ! I heard you guys are trying to do peaceful ways ‘kan ? I here have the same desire as all of you ! This is not only for the future of your people, but also for the sake of freeing Swift Polly, and also our people ! “ Clearly Oxtoroo with his firm tone

“ I can understand what all of you are saying ! It turns out that what Ataru Kurenai said is true.you are really serious about the current condition of your people ! “ Tell Rigel

“ So... “

“ We want to know what everything is about you guys ! Maybe with this.we can find the best way to persuade Dullart to come back with you.by telling him everything in your Galaxy ! “ Clearly Rigel while staring at them with a serious look at the two of them

“ Good ! I agree to seven ! “ Said Oxtoroo

“ Nice ! Now come with me ! “ Invite Rigel to go upstairs where others are waiting for him in the meeting room

“ Come Sampson ! “ Take Oxtoroo

*****

Oxtoroo and Sampson finally enter the meeting room together with Rigel who leads them. Upon entering the room, the situation became somewhat tense with each other as they were still of enemy status. But Rigel asks all not too tense with each other because here they just want to talk not to fight

“ They are here ! “ Whispers Jubei to Ryuga who starts to get anxious to see Oxtoroo and Sampson enter MIRA's meeting room

“ Don't worry ! And don't panic ! “ Ryuga said as he calmed the unsettled Jubei at the sight of the arrival of Oxtoroo and Sampson

“ Please sit here ! “ Rigel invites them all to sit at the meeting table

(Everyone in the room was silent)

“ Aaah..you don't need to be awkward like that ! We are just here to talk and understand each other ! Come on.please sit down ! “ Said Rigel who again asked them all to sit at the meeting table

Not long after, Dullart finally showed himself again in front of Oxtoroo and Sampson and they sat facing each other. Before starting, Dullart also realized that Swift Polly did not come with them. And Dullart was very surprised when he heard the explanation from Oxtoroo about what had just happened with the Thetoid woman

“ Young Master ! “ Call Oxtoroo and Sampson simultaneously

“ Oxtoroo ? The sampson ? Where's Swift Polly ? “ Tanya Dullart with her usual casual tone

“ Rough Polly brought her back to the Mothership ! He said that all the failures of our mission due to his too soft fault with you guys “ explained Oxtoroo

“ Rough Polly ? I had expected that there was indeed something fishy on this side when the five of them started to get involved ! “ Dullart said as he sat facing them

“ Come on ! We're talking now ! “ Take Dullart

They were all silent for a moment and Rigel asked the two Thetoids to talk about their mission given by their superiors and their relationship with Morsdantaque

“ Because there are no Elite Soldiers Morsdantaque here.I think now is the right time to talk about everything related to the Theta military ! Especially in missions and plans to colonize the planet ! “ Clear Rigel

“...”

“Now talk ! “

“ Where should I start ? “ Ask Oxtoroo

“ Anything ! Which obviously has something to do with what you're doing right now ! “ Said Rigel to Oxtoroo

“ Good ! At first I was here because Emperor Zozo ordered me to find Young Master and study this planet ! Yes.that's right he had said if he was interested in this planet ! But His Majesty is not so sure if he wants to rule this planet or not ! When talking about his intentions...Prince Morsdantaque is not yet on the parent ship “ Oxtoroo explained

“ But how could he know about this..if at that time Morsdantaque was not with you guys ?! “ Ask Tazuya

“ If in my opinion..it must be His Majesty himself who said it..beliau himself is his father “ Sampson explained.

“ Since His Majesty died.I can see if the elite soldiers started acting as they pleased with the reason to help smooth our mission ! Also.I can see it if the five soldiers know about the plan from his superiors for the sake of usurping the imperial throne ! “ Clear Oxtoroo

“ I'm sure they helped Morsdan to get rid of me and also they purposely helped you guys to kill me here ! “ Clear Dullart

“ So...they actually want to carry out both missions simultaneously ? “ Ask Jubei who is somewhat confused by their topic of conversation

“ Can be said so ! “ Sampson said

Ataru then left the meeting room because he felt something strange about the meeting and he went to look for an empty room in MIRA building. Without realizing it, Tazuya kept glancing at him, which made him wonder why Ataru left the room

“ Excuse me ! I want to take a toilet for a while “ said Ataru who immediately left the meeting room

“ Please ! “

“ What makes Morsdantaque feared by everyone ? “ Tazuya asked as he glanced at Ataru who came out of the meeting room

“ Morsdantaque takes experts on almost everything in the Theta military ! He is not a spoiled prince you think can only laze on the throne ! Morsdantaque was very active in the military while Gretue was active in diplomatic affairs in the Theta galaxy ! While Dullart, is required to be able to do so because I am the heir to the imperial throne “ Oxtoroo explained about the role of the three princes of the Theta galaxy

“ I think he is really not satisfied will be in position only in the military part ! That's because in the tradition of the new Emperor's appointment, it's the youngest son who should be the successor to the throne of the Empire “ Dullart explained

“ Mr. Rigel, I briefly permit “ said Tazuya who also left the MIRA meeting room

Feeling suspicious of what Ataru is doing and feeling that the reason for going out is absurd considering that spirits cannot pee like humans, Tazuya decides to follow where Ataru is going

“ Where did he go ? “ Tazuya wonders to himself

(Tazuya was silent for a moment while paying attention to his surroundings and the Meeting Room)

“ Hmmm...I don't think it's wrong if I look around what the contents of this old building room are like up close ? Is it possible that Ataru accidentally saw a ghost that made him decide to perform an eviction ritual in this building ? I can see Ataru does not want this meeting to be chaotic because it was attacked by the ghosts of” Tazuya told himself with a smile

Tazuya looked around the area around the second floor of the MIRA building and checked from one room to another to look for Ataru. Tazuya entered one room and another and was completely amazed by what he saw around him

“ Cool ! Pull ! Mr. Rigel is really good at cleaning up somewhere ! “ Praise Tazuya

Tazuya then saw a locked room. Tazuya tried to open the door with a kunai, but he realized if he did it would be caught by Rigel and decided not to do it.Tazuya saw a bookshelf and approached the shelf to look for something there

(SRAAK )

“ Ah ! Secret room ? Hooo it turns out this is another access to the locked room earlier ! Hmmmm ? “

It turned out that behind the bookshelf there was a work changing room owned by Nigulas the Alpha El-Fighter Stage 3 and Tazuya could see if the locked room was the door of the workspace. Tazuya saw a mural of Nigula and a painting that was most likely Nigulas itself. Tazuya who noticed the painting could see if it was most likely made by his father because Tazuya could get to know what Hideyoshi's painting style was like and he could also see if Nigulas's murals were very similar to Inuya's

“ Woah ! What father made this ?! Very cool if you ever get a commission from ah ! “ Tazuya was surprised to see his mural of Nigulas similar to Inuya

“ It...what like this face of Alpha El-Fighter before ? “ Tazuya wonders while paying attention to the mural of Nigulas which is similar to Inuya

Tazuya recalled Inuya's words when they were in the 1st grade of Junior High. Inuya tells Tazuya that he really dislikes being said to be similar to someone known as “Fighter who wants to unite people on earth with his irrational action”. When Tazuya asked who the person in question was, Inuya admitted he did not know who but others said that the name of a person similar to him “ should not be mentioned and should be forgotten in the history of”

(Flashback On)

“ So so yes ? Ayolaah they're just kidding ! Don't take it too far ! “ Tazuya said

“ But it sucks ! I heard it so many times that I wanted to slice my ear with a knife ! They said that a person similar to me was a powerful and terrifying Fighter who intended to unite the people in a very irrational way ! “ Obviously Inuya with annoyance while pacing in front of Tazuya

“ Eeeeh do you know who they mean ? “ Ask Tazuya

“ Uuuumm...ti-no ? Every time I ask who the person is referring to.and they say if the person's name should not be mentioned and should be forgotten by the history of “ Inuya replied who was confused by the person's name.

“ Hmmm...just why you are upset..seems like the person they mean has terrible intentions that make people in this world afraid “ Sahut Tazuya.

“ May “

Tazuya then remembered himself asking Rigel about Nigulas. Rigel said that Nigulas died 15 years ago on May 6, 2100

“ Mr Rigel “

“ Yes ? “ Reply Rigel who is relaxing in the guest room when he finishes training them

“ Ummm...may I know what kind of Alpha my predecessor who is also your close friend ? “ Ask Tazuya

“ Hooo...you mean Nigulas ? Okeee if you ask about him.I can explain that he is quite opinionated with himself...for the physical he is definitely very handsome “ Rigel explained with a smile as he described what Nigulas was like

“ When did he die ? “

“ 15 Years ago.6 May 2100..he died on a mission to stop Wendigo controlled by the leader of Atraco “ Rigel said.

(Flashback Off)

“ 6 May ? Inuya was born on April 1 ! So there was no way he was the reincarnation of Lord Nigulas ! “ Thought Tazuya

“ Ah ! Ataru ! “ Tazuya who was reminded of his original intention to look for Ataru finally appeared and he finally rushed out of the workspace owned by Nigulas and continued his search

At the same time that Tazuya was exploring every room on the 2nd floor, Ataru was seen performing a ritual to see the big predictions that would come when they held talks with Oxtoroo and Sampson. Ataru opened an hourglass and sprinkled it over Tidjbreker and immediately a red light began to come out of the pocket watch. When Ataru saw, the results of his prediction ritual brought up something that surprised him

“ Oh No ! “ Murmured Ataru
