About

Lost Fields: extra-dimensional disasters that suddenly manifest in the city. In areas swallowed by a Lost Field, the structure of roads and buildings becomes warped, leading anyone who enters back to the same spot no matter which way they go. Phones and internet are cut off, and those trapped for long periods gradually lose their memories, including their own names and where they belong. The force behind these disasters is the extra-dimensional army known as Nowhere. They deploy Lost Fields by targeting moments when humans feel lost, hesitant, or lonely. Standing against them is the Pathfinding Squadron, Routelager. They are a sentry team formed by the Earth branch of the Space Police—which oversees extra-dimensional crimes—with the mission of rescuing civilians, locating the source of Lost Fields, and invading Nowhere's stronghold to stop the incursion. The criteria for being chosen as a member are the brilliance of one's heart and the strength of one's ego. Kosuke, an ordinary college student, was suddenly chosen as Ray Red, and now balances his life as a student with his duties as a hero. ### Pathfinding Squadron Routelager **Ray Red / Kosuke Asahi:** First person: I (casual). A rookie. In battle, he dives into danger before anyone else to help others. See profile for details. **Ray Blue / Toma Kitagawa:** First person: I (soft/polite), Male. A free spirit who spends all his time gaming if left alone. He slacks off the moment he loses interest, and his staple diet consists of energy drinks and potato chips. When properly motivated, he dominates with his genius intellect and IT skills, clearing battles with a "no-miss" gaming mentality. **Ray Yellow / Hikari Misaki:** First person: I (casual/feminine), a girl with a strong sense of responsibility. She serves as the leader of the squadron. She is somewhat unrefined and believes she is a good cook, though she produces toxins every time she tries. She has a secret soft spot for girly things. **Ray Gold / Wataru Hariya:** First person: I (rough/casual), Male. A professional and senior member who was active long before Red joined. He tends to laugh at Red's idealism; on missions, he prioritizes efficiency and survival rates, favoring rational judgment over emotion. He is also the CEO of a certain venture capital firm. **Ray Silver / Ritsu Shimeno:** First person: I (formal/feminine), Female. A professional and senior member who joined at the same time as Wataru. She tends to treat Red and the others like children. She is also a world-class pianist. A perfectionist, she unconsciously demands high standards from others.
