The chapter begins with Ben already asleep in his bed with one hand over his eyes as if he were covering them, and his room is dark and shrouded in silence. Although he doesn't feel cold, his clothes are still on, and after a few seconds of peaceful silence, he drops his right hand to open his eyes and looks at the ceiling of his room with a worried face.
"Why do I seem restless?"
Ben said who is thinking deeply and worrying about something unknown.
From lying down, he sat on his bed and looked at the clock on his watch on the left side of his position.
"I feel something strange today, like something bad will happen."
From sitting down, he stood up to the window of his room and pulled back the curtain.
"It's still early. I want to let my heart and mind go to sleep, so I need some relaxing activity to forget about things for a while."
Ben was fixing the curtain to its original form, then he wore his pants and jacket, which looked like a military man, and put his weapons on the jacket and both sides of his pants.
"It's time for shooting play! The important thing is to be ready at all times, even if there's no reason to bring all of this. A great general should always be ready, haha."
He hurried out of his room until he got to his car and drove it.

In the office and residence house of Prime Minister Saburo Kinoshita

"So Mr. Ben wants to have an appointment with me? That's good! I want to see him tomorrow. Please advise and inform him. I want to see and talk with the great general of Australia."
The prime minister said as he sat on the chair in the meeting office where he lived.
"Okay, Mr. Prime Minister, I will tell it to him. I'm sure he feels the same as yours."
Said of a man who was one of the escorts of our protagonists to their residence, and after that, he bowed his head in respect to the Prime Minister and left the office.
The Prime Minister stood up from his seat and looked at a picture in the office where he lived.
"Masahiro, my dearest friend and my close cousin, your son, Ashura, is now 28 years old, and it's been approximately 20 years since I have not seen him. I want to ask for forgiveness for the life your son has taken, but I promise I will protect him as I promised you. I hope I have the chance to see and talk to him again to change his mind about right and wrong, good and evil. I want a ceasefire."
The Prime Minister said seriously and calmly while observing the view from the window while holding the picture in his right hand.
The scene shifts from the dark sky to a glowing cloud, and below is the mountain range called Mt. Kumotori.

A few hours have passed since the morning of this day.
Timeline of activity of the Nation Proclaimed Group of Rebels led by Ashura Nakano
"All of you, get ready, and we will leave to go to each city of our beloved country! It will be a long journey for us where five people per group will stay in each city, but I know we can do it."
Ashura said to his dark image.
"Brother Ashura, even our group of burners is ready!"
His fellow leader asked.
"That's good, brother Banko. Take a good look at Chotan because he might make another mistake and stay away from his group of children."
"I'll take care of him, brother."
Banko responded to their chief leader, Ashura.
The boy named Chotan was the one who went with Ben to the commercial city.
"Listen carefully. It is the first time we will be doing this activity together."
Ashura, their chief leader, said.
"We understand it, brother, since some people in our country are growing suspicious that we, an aid organization that helps them, and the rebel group are the same. So we need to act according to our plan for us to continue our help to them without impurity that they start to think."
His fellow leader, Banko, said and agreed with what Ashura, their chief leader, stated.
"Yes, that's right. We need to act as victims when our burners group is attacking. We need to help them without a doubt in their hearts since we are not yet ready to attack the capital government."
Ashura, their chief leader, said.
"I understand it, brother, but what about the place we leave behind?"
Banko asked him worriedly.
"I and some people will come here, and I already notified all the chosen people. Please alarm everyone, and we will leave."
"Yes, brother!"
Command of their chief leader, Ashura, was obeyed by fellow leader, Banko.

The group of rebels has approximately 40,000 people, and they are divided into more than a hundred groups that have transport vehicles to reach every city and town in Japan. Everyone will be able to return to their place of refuge for more than a month, and this is because their help is always limited, while more than five thousand will stay in this mountain where they are.
The mountain was formerly one of Japan's great tourist spots, but it ended in the year 2013 because it was sheltered by the chief leader of the group, Ashura Nakano when the change started in Japan. This mountain has become even more isolated because it is more stabilized by this group through reconstruction, and the Government put the place into the most restricted and dangerous destination.
The group of aid organizations that they belong to helps every part of Japan that has not been devastated by the past tsunamis, especially the capital of this country, Tokyo.
On the other hand, the group of burners that they also belong to burned some government establishments, but they made sure that all people inside evacuated before burning it by their threats.
The scene shifts to the resident house of Chief of Staff, Yutaka Fujimori.

Asabu, Minato City, Tokyo.

All the higher officers who have control in the military, including the minister of defense, agreed to have an agenda without the consent of Saburo Kinoshita, their Prime Minister. 
"Thank you so much for participating."
Yutaka Fujimori said as he was happy.
"Just make sure that what you're planning will be a success. We're counting on you."
Boei Eguchi, the defense minister, said with worries.
"Don't worry. I will be the only one at risk if our mission fails, and I will take it for a better one."
Yutaka Fujimori said to them with his strong confidence.
"Just make sure, Fujimori."
Boei Eguchi added.
"I will join forces because I want to see their destruction with my eyes."
Yutaka Fujimori said with excitement.
"Do what you want as long as you are successful, and if not, we will make sure that we will save ourselves by putting the blame all on you."
Boei Eguchi said with his sarcastic face and motion of the body.
"Of course, I can do it. It's time for the change!"
The scene then switches to the present time, where Ben is holding two guns and wearing glasses as if he is playing.

Sutākanpanī no shūtingugan - (Shooting gun of the stars company)
Shinjuku City, Tokyo, Japan.

"How many headshots did I make in this round?
Ben did count every shot in the replica.
"Alright! It's almost perfect! But I think it's enough for now, and it's turning eleven. I'm so lucky because I didn't think they had 18 hours of this shooting company."
From his glasses, he took them off and put the guns in their proper cases, and he left the shooting area. He thanked the owner and handed over his double payment as a tip to his amusement, which pleased the owner.
Ben walked towards the parking lot of his car and was about to start it when he heard and saw the police and military vehicles in order, which was suspicious.

Shinjuku City, Tokyo, Japan.

"Each passerby counted one minute, one minute, one minute, and two minutes and repeated three times. It was a stealth attack tactic, and some of their vehicles had mountain tires."
Ben was suddenly shocked.
"This is not good! I have to stop them!"

"What time is now?"
"It's more than twelve, chief!"
"This is the best time to attack! I'm sure all their tricks on the way will trashed due to our numbers."
"But chief! The other group was separated because it's still a few days before they can return here."
"I know that, so we will make hostages and bait of those we catch here. We are lucky if their trash leader is also here. Start looking for their hideout and attack when you see it! Don't feel pity for children, teenagers, or old age. If they resist, kill them all!"
"Yes, chief!"
The scene shifts to Ben while he is inside his car, and he looks impatient because he is in the strict checkpoint.

July 26, 2029 - 00:29
Checkpoint area, which is three kilometers from the Mountain of Kumotori.
Military personnel blocked all ways to Mt. Kumotori.
---
"Damn! It's been ten minutes! Is the clearance over?! I gave it all to you!
A military man looked at him seriously and hung up the phone.
"Forgive me, general. You can't pass."
"What?! What's not possible! I'm under this country's military-authorized person!"
Ben suddenly felt what the two soldiers wanted to do, so he drove his car forward while the nine soldiers shot at him, but it continued to move forward.
"Damn! Follow the general!"
"He looks like he felt suspicious!"
In the car that Ben drove, he was still calling on the phone, but there was still no signal.
"Damn! Still no signal?! It looks like they planned all this! Is the Prime Minister the one who ordered all of this?!"
Because of Ben's driving skills, he misled those who followed him.

Ashura Nakano was sleeping deep in his bed when he heard a sound that described a nightmare of intruders in the area.
"Alarm?! It is the first time it's sounded! It's not good!"
Suddenly, one of the leaders of a group came in, and he was crying and knelt in front of Ashura, which shocked him.
"Brother!!!"
"What happened?! Speak up, Kisho?!"
"Brother, we are being attacked by many enemy soldiers!"
"What?! No!! Damn you, government dogs! I will not forgive you!
Ashura is so mad leaving his tent room.

Ben went down and observed every direction of activity until he saw the blood on the ground and the place where these areas were engulfed in flames, along with the charred bodies of others on the land.
"No! It's no mercy!"
