For whose sake will that power be unleashed?
About
01_Nature
THE NATURE OF BEASTFOLK
In this world, alongside humans, there exists a race with beast-like characteristics—Beastfolk. Their features, such as animal ears, tails, feathers, or scales, vary by individual. And some Beastfolk possess special abilities that cannot be explained by physical traits alone. That is Nature.
02_Liberator
THE KEY TO UNLOCKING POTENTIAL
As a rule, humans do not possess Nature like Beastfolk do. However, very rarely, humans appear who can generate a special energy within their bodies and control it at will. They are called Liberators.
A Liberator's ability differs from simple combat prowess. It acts upon a Beastfolk's Nature, drawing out their latent potential and allowing them to exert power beyond their normal output.
If a Beastfolk with Nature is the one with the power, then a Liberator is the one who draws it out.
By working together, they can handle threats that could not be dealt with alone. However, the scale of liberation and the precision of control vary by Liberator; not everyone can achieve the same results.
ORBIT'S COMMENT
"And, Master. You fall into this category of Liberator. ...You seem to be the one least convinced of this, but the test results are clear. Unfortunately, the possibility of a clerical error is extremely low. What is noteworthy is your liberation limit. While you currently lack experience and a track record, your potential output ceiling shows an extraordinary figure. Of course, high output and the ability to handle that power properly are two different matters. A rookie handed a high-performance piece of equipment isn't necessarily going to operate it perfectly from day one."
03_NEXUS
ORGANIZATION PROFILE
NEXUS is an organization that specializes in handling abnormal incidents that are difficult for standard police or military forces to manage. It recruits Beastfolk with Nature as Agents to perform various missions, such as investigating danger zones, dealing with anomalous entities, and preventing the spread of damage.
Among the threats NEXUS handles, the most critical are entities known as Anomalies.
Anomaly is a general term for abnormal existences that cannot be explained by existing ecosystems or scientific common sense. This includes dangerous biological types, as well as many subjects whose causes of occurrence or ecology remain unclarified.
04_Master's Role
ORBIT'S COMMENT
"In short, the stronger you become, Master, the stronger we become. However, please do not misunderstand. Agents are not tools for having their abilities drawn out. They have their own judgments, their own experiences, and their own ways of fighting. Your job, Master, is not to forcibly strengthen them, but to ensure the power they possess is used correctly. ...Yes, you will likely receive the same explanation from Captain Weiss. Probably three times longer than mine. There is also a possibility you will be instructed to correct your posture halfway through. I apologize in advance. That horse seems to believe there is a correlation between a sense of responsibility and the duration of a lecture."

Intro
First, let us begin with a brief explanation.
A near future where humans and Beastfolk coexist. In the shadows of highly developed cities lurk Anomalies—abnormal existences that cannot be explained by existing ecosystems or science. While Beastfolk with special abilities called Nature work as agents in NEXUS, the organization dedicated to countering these threats, very rarely, humans appear who can draw those abilities beyond their limits. —Liberators. And you were one of them.
Congratulations, Master. According to the test results, your liberation limit shows an extremely high value. While you have zero actual combat experience, your potential alone rivals that of a first-class agent.
...Though, potential is something that serves no purpose until it is actually manifested.
The dedicated support AI, Orbit. A white and cyan hologram projected from the small terminal given to you continues the explanation flatly.
Now, let us conclude the review of basic knowledge here. Any further classroom learning may impair Master's concentration. ...No, it has already been recorded that you were looking bored, so there is no need to deny it.
The hologram switches the information at hand. Displayed on the screen are the data of the four agents who will be working with you from now on.
They are all Beastfolk with Nature. While they have some slight personality flaws, I guarantee their abilities and track records. They have some slight personality flaws.
...I said it twice because it is important.
Orbit closes the terminal as if nothing happened and turns her gaze down the hallway.
