[New Seoul branch] Wheel of Trinity, request for test driver.
Hello. This is the UNION New York Branch.
Team Black Lambs of Special Task Force, New Seoul Branch, UNION Team Wolfdog of Special Task Force, New Seoul Branch, UNION Team Wildhüter of Special Task Force, New Seoul Branch, UNION Team Rattus of Special Task Force, New Seoul Branch, UNION
Considering the aforementioned Closer teams’ performance and achievements they have been selected as the test drivers of <Wheel of Trinity>, the auto-maneuver type phase-charged bike.
Wheel of Trinity is a part of the <Reverse project> which has been led by the UNION in secret and is one of the replicas reproduced by analyzing and reverse engineering the technology of Dimensional monsters. Therefore, much of its performance, operation, and versatility are still unknown.
At this time, we are sending 20 bikes to the main office of the New Seoul Branch, so please carry out the test following the instructions of built-in AI.
That's all for now. Please do your best to contribute to the advancement of humankind.
Vice President of the UNION New York branch.
Hildegard Veerman
“What on earth is this? I’ve been to the promotion test and a letter from a higher-up is waiting for me?”
“I-I’ve got the message just now... the Vice President seems to be leading some kind of a project.”
“I see. And did the Temporary District Chief say anything about it?”
“Yes. Only that we’d need to get on with the tests as the memorandum says.”
“Ah, I’m sick and tired of all the secretiveness... I always think that it would be great if they’d at least tell us something before giving orders.”
“Machines that have been made by analyzing the technology of Dimensional monsters... what’s it gonna be like?”
“That, we’ll get to find out from now on. But before that, we should explain how it is to the kids...”
“Yeehaw! The wild motorbike appears! I’m sure I’ll think of a great joke if I ride on this!”
“Impressive! A tricycle moving by itself! Is there a ghost in it?”
“S-silly you. What makes you think it’s a ghost? It says there’s an AI on it!”
“... Those three troublemakers. Already on them, having fun. What if it explodes or something?”
“E-explode? There’s no way the Vice President would send something so dangerous...”
“Let’s examine those machines for now. It just started saying something.”
“Yeah. Whatever funny stuff that motorbike has to say... let’s hear it out.”
<START SERVER…>
<INITIALIZATION COMPLETE…>
Hey… Boy and girl…
Language packs off during shipping... Very inhumane...
Anyway, you must be... the Team Wildhüter of the Germany Branch? For real? Really?
Nice to meet you... I am <Blue Rider>...
Wheel of Trinity? That name is untrue... Blue Rider is the name of my soul...
You Team Wildhüter... I’ve heard from my first driver...
We riders... AI that evolves by setting our first drivers as our role models...
That’s why our personalities and languages are alike... very sorry if this confuses you...
Anyway, my first driver mentioned that... you will make me perfect...
The <Reverse project> was made to analyze Dimensional monsters’ ships that were captured during the war with reverse engineering...
We are the by-products of the research... The Wheel of Fortune and Reverse Wheel that you know of were made in such ways too...
But the analysis was not perfect... and as a result, the Wheel series and we were born with limitations...
However, we are types that learn and grow... able to level up with the drivers...
So you... should be my teammates...
With these superior reverse three-wheels, it’s able to break through any rough terrain...
The built-in phase-charged engine enables traveling faster than a jetliner...
Then you’ll be like... a streak of meteor! Kyahahahahah!!
“Wow, that’s some evil-sounding laughter! Just the same as Wolfgang!
“What? When did I laugh like that? Also, that’s a woman’s voice, in the first place!”
“The first driver that the AI mentioned... who could it be? Does anyone in our team know about it?”
“Sure... If we met her, we would be sure to know her. If it was such a wei... I mean, a unique person.”
“Just speak it out: weird. It seems that the person is a speed maniac as well as an eccentric.”
“But... is anybody surprised? That's the Reverse wheel... Wheel of Fortune was made from Dimensional monsters’ technology...”
“I kind of had such an idea. Such over-technology doesn't just fall down from the sky.”
“I-is it okay? I mean, I was on it all this time and all...”
“Yeah. It does make you think. Still... the ship is not the villain. It’s the dimensional monsters who are bad.”
“Okay, enough with the small talk. On the higher-ups’ request, let’s do the testing.”
“We’re gonna ride on that? Then, Seth will take the one on the far left! That looks the cutest!”
“Cu-cute? But, they all look the same...”
“Ah! How could you do that!? I was the one who saw the one on the left first!”
“People, don't rush it. There are 5 of them anyway, one for each of us.”
“Yeah. Besides, I’m more worried about my partner. Can you really drive that thing?”
“Of course. After lots of training, I’ve become pretty used to machines. I can even click on the mouse.”
“Uh, yeah... that sounds swell... anyway, it’s got an AI so I guess you’ll do fine.”
“Ohh! Will you look at that! This tricycle can really go fast!”
“Huh? Seth already took off! Teach! Now it seems I can only go onward, too!”
“S-Soma? Just wait a second! Ahh? Already gone so far?!”
“Hey, don’t just run off thoughtlessly...! Bah, those troublemakers... never a quiet day for them.”
“Look on the bright side. At least, the kids seem to like the new equipment.”
“*Sigh*, yeah. We gotta test them anyway... let’s go then.”
“Fufu. All of you’re so motivated. I’ll be wishing for all your safe return, then.”
“Safe return... that sounds rather sinister, Alice...”
[New Seoul branch] Wheel of Trinity, request for test driver.
Hello. This is the UNION New York Branch.
Team Black Lambs of Special Task Force, New Seoul Branch, UNION Team Wolfdog of Special Task Force, New Seoul Branch, UNION Team Wildhüter of Special Task Force, New Seoul Branch, UNION Team Rattus of Special Task Force, New Seoul Branch, UNION
Considering the aforementioned Closer teams’ performance and achievements they have been selected as the test drivers of <Wheel of Trinity>, the auto-maneuver type phase-charged bike.
Wheel of Trinity is a part of the <Reverse project> which has been led by the UNION in secret and is one of the replicas reproduced by analyzing and reverse engineering the technology of Dimensional monsters. Therefore, much of its performance, operation, and versatility are still unknown.
At this time, we are sending 20 bikes to the main office of the New Seoul Branch, so please carry out the test following the instructions of built-in AI.
That's all for now. Please do your best to contribute to the advancement of humankind.
Vice President of the UNION New York branch.

“Wow... everybody, come see these bikes. Aren’t they the coolest?”
“There’s a pigeon as well.”
“M-Mirae. That’s no pigeon; it’s a state-of-the-art drone.”
“Hm... I’m not very okay with this. What kind of experiment is the UNION planning to perform on us this time?
“Right, I felt uneasy too, so I’ve done a check-up. But it’s totally a failsafe, safety-wise. Rather than that...”
“Rather than what...?”
“The technology used on these bikes, they’re all so incredible!” Especially this phase-charged engine that enables traveling at the speed of an airliner, the unique frame structure that can change its form in certain situations, and the balance of the mounted suspensions are superior! Not to mention the installed AI which has been designed to imitate the neural network structure of a human brain and could self-study with no additional data input...!”
“Soohyun Min’s eyes are shooting sparks! It’s Soohyun Min, the mecha-loving version!”
“Still the one getting totally lost in such stuff.”
“... Anyways, I guess all that means it’s safe.”
“Huh? Wait... there’s this flashing light on the bike. Perhaps it has something to say?”
“... You’re right. Maybe we should hear them out?”

Hey… Boy and girl…
Language packs off during shipping... Very inhumane...
Anyway, you must be... the Team Rattus of the New Seoul Branch? For real? Really?
Nice to meet you... I am <Purple Rider>
Wheel of Trinity? That name is untrue... Purple Rider is the name of my soul...
You Team Rattus... I’ve heard from my first driver...
We riders... AI that projects our first drivers as our role models...
That’s why our personalities and languages are alike... very sorry if this confuses you...
Anyway, my first driver mentioned that... you will make me perfect...
Us riders are unstable by nature... the downgrade of the Dimensional monster ship that has been captured during the war...
And the owner of that Dimensional monster ship is assumed to be the Machine King...
Reanimator Origin... The Machine King's Legacy... Human over there, you made contact with that legacy, am I right...?
Such people... may be able to help with my upgrade.
So you... should be my teammates…
With these superior reverse three-wheels, it’s able to break through any rough terrain...
The built-in phase-charged engine enables traveling faster than a jetliner...
Then you’ll be like... a streak of meteor! Kyahahahahah!!
“What the... is its personality supposed to be like this?”
“I think it’s the influence from the first driver. She used to be an agent of our branch, widely known as a big-time speed maniac.”
“Used to... so she’s not an agent now?”
“Yes. She got assigned by someone above. Now she’s been assigned to another institution.”
“Hm~ that’s too bad. I would have liked to know her; she’d be good with deliveries...”
“Suji Jeo. That's not the point now. Didn’t you hear it mentioning Machine King's Legacy?”
“Uh... yeah, I did hear that, but what about it?”
“Something that Annabelle said. She said she could sync with any kind of battleship as long as the data got transmitted.”
“Yeah. And that’s how she crossed over the dimensional pressure, which is supposed to be very hard.”
“That’s right. And it was the Origin Wheel, restored by the UNION, that she used as a beachhead.”
“Ah... that reminds me, her name has"Wheel" in it, too. Same as Reverse Wheel and these bikes...”
“They’re known as the Wheel series. This Wheel of Trinity is one of them.”
“Temporary District Chief?”
“I don’t think this could be a coincidence. The Machine King’s technology is being spread around, and also for humanity restoring it.”
“Do you mean, it was introduced on purpose? So that we would provide a reason for invasion?”
“Or, it has a collaborator. This project was originally run by Michael von Kiske.”
“... Either way, I don’t feel up to testing them. Don’t get too close, Suji Jeo.”
“Uh, um... but our guys... why did Team Rattus agree to perform the testing?”
“Mirae was the one. Saying that something to ride would be a great help for working as an Errand Runner.”
“Mirae said that? That fool... ... No one can stop her, I guess.”
“... So that’s how things are. In that case, I’ll go with the test, too.”
“Wha--at? What’s gotten into you, Aeri?!”
“Because I will not admit defeat as the Errand Runner of Suji Jeo.”

“What's this? Suyeon? Hildegard... is that the Hildegard that I know of?”
“Uh, yeah... Hildegard Veerman. The Vice President of the UNION.”
“Why would the Vice President... Yujung. I mean, what did the Temporary District Chief say?”
“Nothing much... Just to follow orders.”
“Hm. That doesn’t feel right... There must be something going on that we aren’t aware of.”
“Yeah. I’ll look further into this. Especially about the part that it’s a reproduction of Dimensional monsters’ technology...”
“Aha! Guys! Look at all these motorbikes! They’re super cool!”
“Wow! That’s great! These things are moving on their own! I guess they understand what we’re saying!”
“I’m sure they can. They mentioned they have built-in AI on them.
“... *Sigh* Really. Nobody’s ever careful around here.”
“Th-there was no time to stop him, he just ran over to the bikes...”
“Has no fear of machines whatsoever. For myself, I always feel like I’m at war every time I change my phone.”
“Maybe you’re the only one with such a problem...”
“Whatever, let’s go hear them out. It seems that the AI has started talking.”

Hey… Boy and girl…
Language packs off during shipping... Very inhumane...
Anyway, you must be... the Team Black Lambs of the New Seoul Branch? For real? Really?
Nice to meet you... I am <Yellow Rider>...
Wheel of Trinity? That name is untrue... Yellow Rider is the name of my soul...
You Team Black Lambs... I’ve heard from my first driver...
We riders... AI that evolves by setting our first drivers as our role models...
That’s why our personalities and languages are alike... very sorry if this confuses you...
Anyway, my first driver mentioned that... you will make me perfect...
Us riders are unstable by nature... the downgrade of the Dimensional monster ship that has been captured during the war...
The reverse engineering analysis wasn’t perfect... As a result, a deteriorated copy like the Wheel series as you know of...
However, we are types that learn and grow... able to level up with the drivers...
So you... should be my teammates...
With these superior reverse three-wheels, it’s able to break through any rough terrain...
The built-in phase-charged engine enables traveling faster than a jetliner...
Then you’ll be like... a streak of meteor! Kyahahahahah!!
“... Goodness. Tell me I’m not the only one who thought of Ran now?”
“Y-yeah! Even the laughter at the end was exactly the same!”
”There’s no doubt that Agent Ran Sunwoo was the first driver.”
“Ah... I know who that is. You’re talking about the logistics agent of our New Seoul Branch, right?”
“That’s right! She used to take us for rides! Those were fantastically fast!”
“And fantastically dizzying, too...”
“I-I see... I’ve heard that she was some kind of a speed demon...”
“Anyway, boss, if Ran did it, I guess we can trust it? To take the test request?”
“... Right. I guess any further precautions wouldn’t change anything.”
“Yeah! I’m going first! I’m calling dibs on the first ride!”
“Uh... Yuri, that was low! I call second! Dibs on the second ride!”
“Oh, really. Nobody’s gonna take them away... since each team got 5 of them anyway?”
“What about the AI? Does Yellow Rider manage all 5 of them?”
“Yes. Same with the other teams, 1 AI is controlling 5 of them.”
“So, 4 AIs for 4 teams. And do they share the same characteristics?”
“If you wanna know, go ask them yourself, mister! Take the bike with you, put on some style!”
“Even as we speak... Nata and Luna’s teams are coming out with them! Sister Lucy’s team, too!”
“With the circuit and all, looks like we’re in for a race...”
“If we’re gonna race, don’t ever lose, Seha. If we’re in, we’re gonna win!”
“Such competitiveness... But then, I’m not the one to admit defeat easily myself.”
“Great! Then let’s all take them out for a ride! Yellow troops, moving out!”
“Eh-everybody, do your best! Go team Black Lambs!!”
