Midnight Crystal (Part 61)

Nessa stepped into the XH-01 with an uncertain step. She had been on SH-01 fighters many times before when she had secretly participated in missions in Dead Lands.

But... XH-01 was something else entirely.

Inside it was filled with massive tanks of blue liquid, they were against the walls and the tubes from them went down to somewhere else, it didn't look like they went to the engines and the liquid was for something else.

'Good. Nessa, consider me to be your Operator for this mission. Consider it the greatest privilege you could have, considering you're not even a Phantom.' Refesa said calmly.

Nessa nodded with a great frown at her words. She wasn't going to hold back this time.

''Yeah, I'm not a Phantom, but I can easily defeat Snow Follower and many other monsters that most K1-Phantoms can't do anything against. And... You're not an Operator either." Nessa said confidently.
