As the source of the mesmerizing melody drew near, the anticipation reached its zenith. And then, they emerged—figures of indescribable discipline, marching proudly in their resplendent armor. Demigods in stature, they carried with them colossal banners that bore symbols of their might and authority.

With every step, their thunderous aura resonated, commanding reverence and awe from all who beheld them. The weight of their presence bore down upon the onlookers, compelling them to silence and even to kneel in homage.

At the forefront of the procession marched giants clad in imposing black armor, their weapons gleaming with an ominous aura. Beside them walked ordinary humans, though their bearing hinted at nobility, their presence adding to the spectacle of the scene.

Following the imposing black-armored legions and the dignified nobles, golden warriors emerged, their presence exuding an aura of majestic splendor. In stark contrast to the steel-clad soldiers preceding them, these golden figures commanded attention with their resplendent armor and regal bearing. Each step they took resonated with a sense of power and authority, their radiant forms casting an ethereal glow that seemed to illuminate the very air around them.

As the legion of silver knights emerged, standing proudly with their majestic aura, they cast a shadow over even the esteemed Golden Legion. Taller and more imposing, their demeanor bespoke a sense of confidence and assurance. Despite the obscured visages of their helmets, the citizens could discern the warmth of their smiles, a reassuring glimmer amidst the solemnity of the moment. The combined presence of these three transhuman soldiers—the golden, the silver, and the black—was enough to unsettle the Japanese populace, their composure slipping in the face of such overwhelming power.
