On July 1st of the year 499, the 8 Great Patriarchs made a worldwide announcement.
"I, the most powerful of the 8 Great Patriarchs, pronounce in this place the preparation of the "Final War" which will begin on January 1st of the year 500.
This war will be a giant battle royale across the continent, with the aim of defining the strongest or most devious survivors of this world to take our places and thus become the new Great Patriarchs.

It is following this more than astonishing announcement that Yùichi MATO decided to do everything to become one of the new Great Patriarchs.

Unfortunately for him, his road will be long and full of pitfalls before he can hope to become one of them.

But before all, he will have to learn to know himself and his inner strength.

EARTH SURVIVAL

"These are the other seven. And our goal is to become the next Great Patriarchs and given your reactions earlier, we agreed to include you in our plans, so that we can have the best possible chance of getting closer to that title. But for that, we have to explain you all the specifics, that we have found, about this war, the rules about the chip and the next ones that will come soon." 


Well, I have to admit that a lot of questions just popped into my mind. But one in particular caught my attention: Why the two of us? 


What do we have more than the others that they choose us and above all, they really trust them so much that they think they have a chance to win this war. 


I admit that my goal is also to win this war, but it would be utopian to believe that I could win it. There are almost 20 billion of us on this planet, which is only 1/20,000,000,000 chances that I will come out alive. 


So to expect 10 of us to make it out alive is just absurd.
