On December 31, 2029, a sudden disruption left Earth's nations, including Japan, unable to communicate with other countries. However, this was more than just a technical failure-it was a national crisis unlike any since the founding of the modern state.

Yes, the world they now found themselves in was a new realm, a fusion of three different dimensions. Long-standing diplomatic relations and power dynamics were completely overturned, and a new order began to take shape. Please note that this work incorporates a wide variety of elements.

What if four of the smartest characters in fiction all joined the same school? Four humans with above-normal intelligence all enter the same school; however, instead of all being placed in the same class, they are all put in a different class. All character ages have been placed at the age to join ANHS. Also, to make sure the story works better, a lot of scenes will have to be changed just to ensure it works better for the story, and I will also be adding new scenes between characters to give them their own unique story. This will also mean that some characters won't be completely the same and will be changed up a little bit for the story.

10 years ago, there was an incident that led to a war that engulfed Kivotos - the Dark Dawn Incident. Thousand upon thousands of Kivotos girls died tragically even with their special capability. All by the hand of the opposite gender. In just a few months. Kivotos had deported ANY person who was male; they claimed it to be the only path to Peace. But is this what "peace" really is? And so, ten years later. The Eisenberg Military Academy (EMA) was formed in secret as a heavily armed student force of the Kaiser. Will this "War to end all war" really end all the wars between males and females in Kivotos? (This is my first Blue Archive Fanfiction where instead of focusing on Sensei or the girl like other generic stories. Why don't we drive a bit into a more controversial topic? A topic that the Blue Archive writer had been ignoring for years since the release of the game.) (All of this is a Head Canon and work of Fiction, it isn't official nor is it tied to any official Blue Archive. This is just a fanmade story made by someone who loves to play the game)

One moment he was admiring the massive steel giants displayed at the naval base museum... the next, a freak aircraft accident turned everything into fire, metal, and darkness. He thought that was the end of his story. But when he opened his eyes, something felt incredibly wrong. No ground beneath him. No body to move. No breath to breathe. Just... waves? "Where am I? And why am I floating? Wait... What the hell am I?!" *Illustration and images are credited to the real owner.

My name is Alex. I've been summoned along with my friends to save the world from a crisis. However, in this story, my best friend Emi is the protagonist, and I'm just a supporting character who stays away from the drama. Contrary to my desire to keep a low profile, Emi always manages to get me into trouble. My abilities are far from amazing. Without anyone knowing that I'm behind their success, I can strengthen those around me and give them the push they need to overcome obstacles. While Emi faces epic battles and challenges, I remain in the shadows.
