Kyuuzaki and Dr. Snow walk to the room where One sees that he is still sleeping. Dr. Snow informs Kyuuzaki that General Alcaeus sent their plane here, and now it’s on the runway on the island. He thanks Dr. Snow, and he heads off to his plane. He heads off the runaway and sees that their plane isn’t damaged at all. The door suddenly opens, and a soldier walks down to their plane. The soldier informs him that he has just arrived and now he is now just waiting for him to come. Kyuuzaki smiles, and they separate as the soldier walks to his original post while Kyuuzaki goes inside the plane. He has a gut feeling that something might be off, so he starts investigating his own plane. He begins to check every single chair, Corner, and Crevice of the room. He also searches in the places no one would look for, and he finds nothing. He deploys his little drone that can detect an anomaly signal while he goes to the cockpit. He checks if their system is okay and everything is running okay. The small drone went to his room and One’s room to scan if everything is clear.

So Hikaru’s shard is purple. I wonder what kind of element that is? The drones go back to his pocket and inform him that everything is clear, so he goes to his room. He lies down on his bed and looks at the ceiling.

So Hikaru has black like substance powers. Also, when One pokes that black stuff, nothing comes out. It’s just pure darkness, and it doesn't make sense why no sound or light is coming through. Does he have a dark rune or something? Does that even exist? Kyuuzaki scratches his head.

But ‘Darkness’ doesn’t make sense because if he had a new rune that is dark, would he be corrupted by it? Kyuuzaki continues to ponder, and he thinks about how he can meet Hikaru without anyone knowing. Also, he is worried that he doesn’t know where the other shards are.

One wakes up and Dr. Snow is right beside her, then she calls Kyuuzaki. They discuss their current matter on what they will do next.

“One, I apologize, but I'll temporarily do solo missions for now. Since you are still injured, I don't want you to get worse.”

“That's alright for me since my arms and ribs are still broken.” One looks at the ceiling and looks back at Kyuuzaki.

“Do you want to transfer to your designated Doctor?” Kyuuzaki smirks.

“So you finally know about that, huh…” Kyuuzaki scratches his head and smiles. One nods, and he requests Kyuuzaki to get his phone.

“Thank you.” One dials the phone, and Kyuuzaki leaves the room, and he heads to the cafeteria.

“Good Afternoon Dr. Hyacinth.”

 A woman picks up the phone with an annoyed tone. “What a strange time for you to call. What do you want?”

One sighs and explains what happened to him. “You are pushing yourself again!!! Fine, you can go tonight or tomorrow morning, it's up to you.” The woman hangs up.

One sighs as he puts the phone on a table beside him. He calls Dr. Snow to inform that he wants to leave tonight but She isn’t there. So he just stares at the ceiling and closes his eyes.

Dr. Snow walks around her base, and she signs the papers that some nurses request as she stroll around. She walks to the cafeteria and she sees Kyuuzaki eating. She sits down in front of him and crosses her arms.

“I finally found you.”

“Hello, Dr Snow. Do you need something?”

“So you have discovered something important, haven't you?” 

“What do you mean by that?” Kyuuzaki continues to eat his dinner.

She shakes her head and smiles. “Go to a private room thirty minutes from now, since I have to take care of one. He is probably done with his call.” She walks away, leaving a special card that has directions on it.

Were my questions too obvious? Well, she might be able to help, and hopefully she can be trusted. He sighs and continues eating his dinner.

***

One waves weakly to Dr. Snow and she checks up on him. She asks how he is while checking his blood pressure.

“So are you going to transfer?”

“Yeah, I will, and is it ok if it's tonight?”

“Yes, but you will arrive there probably at midnight.” One has given it a thought and he decided to go tomorrow morning.

“Well, I'll be back again, so rest up alright?” 

“Sure.” One closes his eyes while Dr. Snow leaves the room to meet Kyuuzaki.

Dr. Snow arrives at the private room, and she sees him sitting on a chair with his feet up on a table.

“Hello Kyuuzaki, let's continue our conversation earlier. What have you discovered?”

“Why do you care, and why would I trust you? Don't give the reason because you saved my life blah blah blah. Give me a valid reason why?” Kyuuzaki crosses his arms as he looks at her.

“The answer is you don't have to trust me, but I might be able to help you. Besides, I've been wondering if there are other elements out there that we don't know. The you ask questions about the elements earlier was too obvious that you're trying to find something or you know something. So spill it out and tell me what you have discovered.” Dr. Snow stands in front of the door.

Kyuuzaki gives it a thought and decides to say what he discovered. “I have found a weird element on my last mission. It consists of black substance, and I can't figure out what it is.”

“Describe it to me.”

“Whatever we did to the substance, there was no reflection of light, sound, or visual perception. Although you can put a stick on the place and pull it back like nothing happened.” Kyuuzaki tries his best to describe it.

Dr. Snow sighs. “It's a Void Rune.”

“ A Void rune huh…” Kyuuzaki starts thinking more about what she said. “Why did you say there were only six elements?”

“We only said that in public because the higher ranks said so, and most government officials know about how many there are currently. Void Rune is just one of them, and there are still four of them.”

“Do you know where to find these shards?” Kyuuzaki clasped his hand.

“There you go asking a question that is obvious.” Dr. Snow puts a small machine at the door and it casts a soundproof barrier.

“Look, I'm just curious, that is all.”Kyuuzaki scratches his head while Dr. Snow sighs and she decides to fully help him from now on.

“Someone can wield these runes, can they? Don't play dumb with me, it won't work.”

“Yes there is.”

“Then what is the plan here? To give these shards to that person and gain that power?” Dr. Snow taps her foot.

Kyuzaki looks at the ceiling to avoid her gaze since his plans are blown..

“I'm gonna give you some valuable info: All current facilities have the three void shards.”

“Why separate them?”

“It's too dangerous because we tried everything…. We have studied and experimented and nothing happened. The best case scenario is to separate it.”

“What do you know about this?”

“It's obviously not a complete object and it's a foreign object. What I can say is it can give someone a huge amount of physical and mental toll on someone. It can also be the darkness itself.” Dr. Snow shivers at what she remembers.

“What do you mean by darkness itself?” 

“When we encountered these mysterious shards, it felt alive, and this was not the case on the other runes. This includes the other runes that I didn't speak of.”

“Alive? Also what are the other four runes that you have seen?”

“The other runes are: Light, Dark, Time, and space.”Can you give me a moment to process all of this…” Kyuuzaki gets off his chair and walks around the room.

“Sure, no problem, and I'm also risking my life here at this point.”

Kyuzaki looked down and processed everything, and gave it a thought.

Since there are three void shards in each facility and there are six known facilities that I have personally seen. The math doesn’t add up, that means one of the facilities has no shards at all. Hold on.. Perhaps two in this case because Kyuuzaki has to have two at this point, but where is the final shard?

Those two probably did something about this because it doesn’t make sense. Anyways, I am getting off track. There should be four facilities that have the void shard.

“So where is it in this facility, and is it possible to take them?” Doctor shakes her head and looks down.

“You can't take them, unfortunately, because we have to inform the other doctors and General Alcaeus to access this place.” She points down at the floor.

Why him specifically, that’s odd, and it seems to be she is signalling that it’s on the deeper parts of island phlox.  He nods and smiles.

“Are you gonna steal them?”

“I don't want to lose my position just because of a couple of shards. Also, you mentioned the other four runes.”

“The Time, Space, Dark and Light runes?”

“Yes”

“For the other runes it should have the same concept as the void rune. It’s inside a facility with three shards in them. Although I have some information about them, and it’s about the time rune. It’s weird that it’s also here with the void rune. Other than that, I have no info about where or which planet it’s in.”

“Planet Shimo and Luminae huh…” Kyuuzaki looks up and realizes something since there are only three planets in their system. The numbers don't make sense once again. He brushes it off since finding the void shards is the priority.

“Thanks.” He manages to extract some info but he still doesn’t trust her fully.

“Please be careful in the future. Also let's head out. One might need help or something. Also, let's pretend that we talked about your powers and that stuff.”

“Sure.”

Kyuuzaki and the doctor start to have a conversation about his abilities. He jokes around that he will blitz the trials in a day and harness it as soon as possible. They arrive at the clinic After a couple of minutes.

“Kyuzaki I'm gonna leave tomorrow morning, and would you like to report everything that happened here to the general?”

“Leaving already? Also, sure I will report everything.”

“I will be meeting my doctor at Island vrontí tomorrow morning.” One lies down again on the bed.

“Also, I'll head out and train again to see you.” Kyuuzaki leaves the room to go to the training facility.

“Is he ok? He looks gloomy.” One rises from his bed and drinks water.

“Don't worry about him. He said he wanted to blitz the trials, but I said he can't do that because his body may not handle it.” Dr. Snow shakes her head and fixes her glasses.

“Of course he would do that, and how is he able to control his abilities?” 

“He is learning fast, but sometimes he is stating obvious things.” One laughs and lies down again.

“Just bear with him, He doesn't know how to rest. Once he gets attached to something, he won't let that go until it's solved. He is strong but he also has flaws, you know?”
