Berserked Licht "kills" Tsukina
Tsukina is a childhood friend of Licht Bach and Sakai Tokikaze.[1] According to Tokikaze, 300 years ago, a pregnant Tsukina had tried to stop Licht's berserk state and the fight between the Sakai brothers. However, Tsukina failed to do so and received a fatal wound from Licht.[2] Though, Tsukina's body was recovered, and her brain was kept alive for 300 years; they were able to resuscitate her. Once Tsukina was revived, she stole one of the Special Service's Ballots and ran away.
Tsukina about to taken into the Abyss
Tsukina first appeared in the beginning of Chapter 1, as she is getting absorbed into the Abyss. Before Tsukina is taken, she requested that Hina finds a Legendary Red Baron of her choosing and lives together with that Baron. Tsukina also gives Hina a Ballot before she is taken into the Abyss. It was later revealed by Licht that Firenda was the cause of Tsukina's count reduced to zero and died. This was so she could set up Hina's meeting with Licht and the conflicts between them and the Special Service in the future[3].
Story Events[]
Special Service Arc[]
Although Tsukina is already dead by the time Licht and his group were "invited" by the Special Service, when Hina is investigating the main base Maskiert Stadt, she discovered Tsukina's laboratory and tried to enter it. As Hina entered the laboratory, a hologram of a pregnant Tsukina appeared in front of Hina. It is said to be recorded not long before she was "killed" by Licht 300 years ago. Tsukina told Hina not to give the new drugs she created to any of the Special Service's members. Tsukina explains that she created this drug in an attempt to solve the resource shortage crisis. If humanity ate the drug, they would no longer died from salvation. Also, the resource shortage would be solved. However, this drug can also give anyone supernatural powers that can even surpass the original seven Red Barons. Tsukina also said that she noticed Firenda was oddly interested at creating this new drug, which terrified her. Due to feeling fear that Firenda might intend to use the drug for her secret plans, Tsukina decided to lock her laboratory under the Ballot's power. This was so nobody but Hina would be allowed to enter the lab.
As Hina is wondering how the Special Service already obtained those drugs before her, Tsukina said that by the time she entered the lab and she already knew about the drugs, it would mean that someone at Special Service has the ability to shapeshift. That person must have transformed into Hina before to obtain those drugs. Because of Tsukina's words, it led Hina to realizing Nikola must be a traitor among Herz Vaalheit's group. She later discovers his true identity as being Firenda in disguise.
