## Character

### Appearance

Luka has short, messy white hair and yellow eyes with horizontal pupils. His ears are sheeplike; a pair of round off-black horns are just above them. He also wears a black beret.

Luka's clothing consists of a white short-sleeved button-down shirt tucked into a pair of off-black shorts with suspenders. His tail can be seen poking out from behind the latter. Around his neck, he wears a white cravat and a golden bell to which a black bow is tied. He also wears an off-black cape with deep blue lining and a white collar, as well as a thin black band around his right thigh, white knee-high socks, and black and white shoes.

The Book of Succession floats in front of Luka. It is a somewhat thick black tome with elaborate designs around the edges of its covers, and a crescent moon on its front.

## Story

### Luka

Luka is the Guardian of Aries, the first zodiac and also the successor of Sheeple. He is the youngest among the Guardians, however he is the leader of 12 Conference, which discuss the future of Universe’s peace and entropy. As the youngest yet the wisest among all, he serves his duty within his power to summon and gain wisdom from his ancestors.
Luka is docile and loves peace. He has a significant intelligence and sense to feel upcoming jeopardy.
However, his basic athletic features are under the average, thus gets injured easily by falling off.
Due to his naïve characteristic like other Sheeples, without a help from his ancestor, he might have been deluded by others well.
However, it seems that he does not think he is so naïve.
Sheeples are said to be returning to the ‘Root of Soul’ after their mortal life and stay with their descendants.
A power to borrow wisdom with their ancestors is known to be abled due to this trait.
Luka, who is especially serving as the Guardian, is able to contact with ancestors at any time by summoning ‘Root of Soul’ in the form of ‘Book of Succession’.
Perhaps their averaged short life term of 30 years is the side effect of their trait.
As Elves shown their valor by fighting at the frontline of the Astral War, Sheeples led the war to humane victory with their wisdom. Their activity on field was highly appraised by all the other beings who wished peace upon Universe. As a result, Sheeples are acknowledged as a mascot of peace all along the Universe from then and now on.

### Daydreaming

After putting on his glasses, Luka read the words on the Book. Worrying about the 12 Conference and the future of Universe, Luka suddenly began to think about other Guardians.
“Hehe~ Definitely Elaine and Lana is the most beautiful and kind among Guardians~ Maybe they have a crush on me.”
Scribbling, as Luka was soaked by his happy daydream, the ‘Book of Succession’ next to him started to write down words.
“Oh, Ancestor, wait for a second! Let me grab my glasses…"
'Delusion, Free. However, do it alone.'
Luka clicked his tongue after reading the Book.
“Tsk… Alright, alright. It just came out of my mouth naturally. Don’t be so hard."
“By the way… I think I’m stuck in the doghouse with the Judge and the Scorpion… I was saying somethings to them as they were having some.. ‘Disagreement’ before, but I think I was little bit too much at the last Conference. Those eyes man… Maybe I’ll get assassinated with Iris’s cookies in agony.”
Luka blurred his words.
“I’m… not ready to die yet…"
The Book answered Luka, flirting its pages.
'Luka, Too much worries. Iris Cookie, Danger, Agree.'
“I heard that Miya held a surprise showcase to celebrate the Valhalla’s 100th anniversary and it was super awesome. I missed it playing with you!"
'Luka, Ancestor, Bored. Shiritori, Fun. Play, Duty. Revolt, Bad.'
“Ah, just shut it. The researcher, doesn’t she literately ‘Always’ stays in her room? I wonder how she knew and went to see the showcase. Indeed she’s the president of MISO(‘Miya the Sophisticate’).”
'The Being, History Itself. Action, Unable to predict.'
With a disappointment, Luka began to think of other Guardians.
“I heard those twins fought and got awkward again. Their attitude literally changes day after day. Well, it is a fact that Celestials and Demons are like water and oil so… Hmm, Maybe the Machine next door… I found her doing some strange things to the younger twin lately. Isn’t she driving a wedge between them? It’s odd… Maybe it’s time for a Sheeple to step in.”
'Conjecture, 100 Percent. Reason, Necessary. Stepping in, Waste. Guardian, Respect.'
“Alright. By the way, why are you keep nagging at me these days? I didn’t do anything wrong recently.”
'…'
“Hello..?“
'…'
“Are you there..?"
'…'
Luka’s eyes began to fill with tears.
The Book hurriedly wrote with nervous letters.
'Luka, Joke. Sorry. Luka, Precious.'
“Stop... Stop talking to me anymore. I’ll go see Ares after work…"

### Luka, the Leader of the Twelve Guardians

Twelve guardians of the constellations have gathered here to discuss the order and the future of the universe itself.
As their leader, I am currently leading the conference.
"Everyone, please be quiet. The next topic is 'A Discussion about Kalpa' as suggested by Lady Alcyone. Please stand up and make your satement, Lady Alcyone."
"As you heard from the sheep kid, this topic is about Kalpa."
I restrain myself as a leader, despite the words 'sheep kid' angering me.
"It is true that the power she holds saved us all."
"However, don't you think that her power could be misused by someone lusting for it, now that most of the universe has been revived?"
"Why do you think that the power could be used wrongly?"
Lynn asks sharply, pushing up her glasses.
"What if I started a war against your Sagittarius, and then used Kalpa's power to only return my soldiers to life? How is that? Wouldn't it be fun? You wouldn't know how great this power is, because you have been blinded by peace."
Although I feel sorry for Lady Kalpa, it is true that her power that defies natural order could influence the peace of the universe.
"It sounds as if you want to begin a war. How about we find a way to restrain you first, rather than Kalpa?"
It seems as if there would be a fight between the opposing guardians. My ancestors were right in that I was needed to get the conference going.
"Everyone, stop! Ares, help me instead of just standing around!" I held my head between my arms, frustrated, as I looked for Ares to help me.
