Columbia	"I'll cut to the chase."
Columbia	"This case will be solved by me, the Inspector General of the Special Steel Squad."
Queensway	"......"
Columbia	"The newcomers of the subterranean universe of Iris Metro do not have authority to this case. I also ask that the 'representatives' of the Five Countries also stay out of it. Any unauthorized attempts will be mercilessly punished."
Paddington	"......"
Columbia	"Any questions or doubts? Well, I'm the protagonist of the world, so you can't complain about what I do."
Columbia	"It is the role of the protagonist to take into account the opinions of the supporting cast and make the most of them. If I think it's worth considering, I'll listen to them."
Yakutsk	"......"
Vivienne	"...What the hell is wrong with this woman? She just popped out of nowhere."
Putra	"Eeh, you behave like this when you're in a bad mood too, Vivienne?"
Yakutsk	"Yes, that's exactly what I thought right now."
Vivienne	"Eh, for real? Je suis désolé! No grumpy harassment, ever."
Putra	"It doesn't happen very often~ but Vivienne is super scary when she's angry."
Paddington	'Yes, you're a woman of the SSS... Incidentially you wrote yourself as the 'scariest', not 'strongest' in your form."
Vivienne	"You don't know what you're talking about, do you? Also, I'm not irritated, okay?"
Columbia	"Shut up or I'll kill you."
Vivienne	"......"
Columbia	"I said I would listen to your questions and doubts. I didn't give you permission to chit-chat."
Columbia	"That'll be marked as a demerit. If you all think you're heroes who are going to save the world, then act proudly like one."
Columbia	"I don't want to see kiddies getting carried away and make a fuss."
Vivienne	"......"
Columbia	"What? Something wrong in your eyes? Do you have a problem with me? Want to be court-martialed? Have you forgotten that I have the authority to do so?"
Putra	"......"
Paddington	"Well well, this is all so intense... this feeling of saying and acting harshly is so nostalgic, brings tears to my eyes."
Paddington	"Good time to eat something stimulating once in awhile...♪"
Putra	"Are you like a curry alien from a curry planet?"
Columbia	"The existence of such a planet has never been confirmed."
Yakutsk	"Everyone, just chill out for a second."
Yakutsk	"We have a lot of these types in our country. Fussen, for example. It's one of their tactics to try to make the other side angry, so they lose their cool and get the upper hand in negotiations."
Queensway	"Nuh-uh, I think she's simply being rude."
Paddington	"Yes. She's famous in my country, Miss Columbia, yes?"
Conductor	In case you're wondering, Columbia has good reason to be pompous. She is the Inspector General in the upper echelons of the Special Steel Squad, and her rank in the Order of St. Iris is a brigadier-general.
Conductor	Within the SSS, she is considered to be on the same rank as me, the Conductor. As she said herself earlier on, she has the authority to interfere in personnel matters. You all may be angry, but you shouldn't be too careless and try to go against her.
Columbia	"So, I have already been kind enough to tell you all that from the very beginning, haven't I?"
Columbia	"And if you don't understand that, then you ladies are stupid and incompetent."
Yakutsk	"......"
???	"Excuse me from the shadows... Can't you speak a little less antagonistically, President?"
A voice suddenly rang out while everyone was in raptures over Columbia's terrible behaviour. We look around in surprise, but the owner of the voice is nowhere to be seen.
Yakutsk	"What, did I just hear a voice...? An auditory hallucination?"
Putra	"Yakky, behind you, behind you."
Yakutsk	"GYAAAHA!?"
???	"Oh, sorry about that. I have gone into a habit of concealing my presence."
Putra	"Oh, you've let down your guard, Yakky? You're so careless."
Yakutsk	"No, no, I thought I was paying attention!"
Columbia	"Woking."
Columbia calls out in dismay towards the girl that manifested behind Yakutsk like an ooze.
Columbia	"What are you doing here? You're supposed to be my guard, you should always be closest to me."
Woking	"Eeeh~? If I cuddle up to you 24/7, people would think we're best friends, wouldn't they?"
Paddington	"Who are you? I haven't seen you before...?"
Queensway	"If you don't remember, Paddington, then nobody knows, probably?"
Putra	"Yes, yes, Paddington has the best knowledge and memory in the world!"
Paddington	"Ah, no no! I'm always lamenting my lack of one!"
Columbia	"Let me introduce you. This is Woking, who is, on paper, part of the SSS."
Columbia	"But her real function is to protect me, my bodyguard."
Woking	"Or rather, that's my name under which you kept. I'm sure President will be fine no matter what, even if I don't protect you, right?"
Woking	"Then again, I've nowhere else to go."
Conductor	So Woking, you're the survivor of the newly leaked "Messiah Project"?
Queensway	"Messiah Project?"
Conductor	I'm sorry, I can't go into detail here, as it's still military secret. It was a countermeasure to the Phantom Mist, devised before the Mist Train Project was established. The classified project itself is now halted.
Queensway	"Is it something like the Out-Siders...?"
Columbia	"No, something more miserable."
Columbia	"Whatever, we're not here to introduce ourselves. If you really want to know about us, catch up to us and we'd gladly tell you."
Columbia	"The important thing now is that we are the inspectors general."
Yakutsk	"Inspector general... A position that can monitor, and possibly purge any irregularities or wrongdoing within the SSS."
Putra	"I'm learning a lot."
Yakutsk	"No, it's usually written in the handbooks they give you when you join the army."
Putra	"Do you think us Flamarinians read through that stuff?"
Yakutsk	"No, you're one of the more serious Flamarinians. You're more steadfast than you believe yourself to be. I would have thought you would have looked through that stuff."
Putra	"......"
Paddington	"Putra was embarrassed by her honest compliment...♪"
Vivienne	"Cute~♪"
Columbia	"That's why I'm telling you to stop flirting around."
Columbia	"Considering we, the inspector generals are here, this is an emergency. You need to be more tense."
Columbia	"We, the inspectors general, even have the power to dissolve the SSS -- Remember that. I have the authority to disband this unit or dismiss any of its members at my discretion."
Vivienne	"In other words, are you our enemy..?"
Woking	"No, we're allies one way or the other. Please don't misunderstand us here."
Woking	"Sorry about that, my arse of a boss has a bad mouth and temper."
Columbia	"I think you're pretty much the same, you know?"
Columbia	"Fine. I should probably tell you all why we're out here this time. Apparently if I don't explain it to them, they don't feel threatened whatsoever."
Columbia irritably twirled the ends of her hair around her fingers. She explained the situation to us after all this time.
Columbia	"Right now, in this subterranean universe of Iris Metro, the reputation of the SSS is rock-bottom."
Putra	"Eh, you're kidding? We came down here underground and solved a lot of tough cases right away, shouldn't our fame be rising?"
Yakutsk	(I kind of hate myself for recognising that Putra's nonsensical body movements was an imitation of an eel).
Columbia	"Yeah. I've heard about it. I commend you on a job well done."
Columbia	"But, I'm afraid that while you were working hard to solve incidents, there were some troubling developments in the subterranean universe of Iris Metro."
Yakutsk	"Troubling developments...?"
Columbia	"Yes. In this subterranean universe of the Iris Metro, there have been sightings of a different kind of Mist Train. A phony Mist Train, so to speak, has been spotted on this underground world of the Iris Metro."
Columbia	"This 'fake Mist Train', as we call it, is running rampant and causing damage in various parts of the country here."
Columbia	"Well? It's quite an emergency, isn't it?"
Paddington	"Fake Mist Train, could it be...?"
