“The midterm exam will be held at academies across the country in the next week.“

“Taebum is right. And the day after the exam is over, the day we put our second plan into action.“

As Natasha nodded, there was the sound of iron armor clashing,

Azur looked at the PPT slide with a very nervous expression.

“The detailed strategy has already been established and everyone is already aware of it. As it is a large-scale operation in which all executives are involved in the operation. Let’s start the briefing again.“

Taebum adjusted his glasses and tapped on the keyboard of his laptop.

This time, a PPT material with a very neat style appeared.

This time, he explained the plan he had made thoroughly and with real intention.

Due to the nature of the academy, in order to accommodate the schedules of students training during summer vacation.

Midterm exams are held in early March, which is particularly early compared to other schools.

And the day when all the exams are over and the prom is held.

On that day, the directors of the academies scattered across the country gathered in one place and held a regular meeting.

A total of four prestigious academies that produce the most graduates.

Then, attack the Central Academy and the other three academies, which store a large amount of nectar according to the number of graduates.

It was an operation aimed at taking advantage of the gap in which the board chairs were away and the level of alertness had dropped significantly.

“Do you have any questions?“

“Taebum, shouldn’t we just steal the products manufactured by the management bureau? With the power you have as director, it would be easy.“

“Sister Natasha… As I explained before, nectar is an item that is treated with special care even within the management bureau. And the management and handling of nectar is still handled by an external organization. Still to be included…“

“It’s annoying… I have to work overtime that day too… Can’t I just not go? About one of me…“

Natasha whined and fell down on the table.

The director sighed and was adjusting his glasses.

“I know that Sister Natasha is tired of repeated gate sweeps, but as the heresy interrogator pointed out during the Yangjae Station incident. We must do our best too.“

“Aw… I’m a loser… Ha… Okay. Taebum, then where should I go?“

“Let’s see…First of all, a total of four locations were selected…Central Academy…“

The moment the word ‘Central Academy’ came out.

Azur swallowed his saliva and averted his gaze.

‘This is where the Heretic Inquisitor is… If I go… I’ll get caught…’

“How about Sister Xiao going? Since you will already be familiar with the school’s location and security level, it will be much more advantageous.“

“Taebum, doesn’t that mean that Xiao’s face is all sold? No matter how much I plan to drop out soon, it still seems too harsh to make me do that…“

“First, let’s listen to Sister Xiao’s opinion.“

“…“

Xiao had his mouth closed and his chin resting.

Although he was clearly attending a meeting, it was as if his mind was occupied somewhere else.

“Sister Xiao?“

“Uh…ah…sorry, I have something to think about for a moment.“

“Sister Xiao asked me if I would like to take charge of Central Academy. You know that place better than any of us…“

“I refuse. Some circumstances came up.“

She shook her head resolutely,

Everyone looked surprised.

But Taebeom looked away as if he had expected it to some extent…

Headed to Azur.

“Then what about Sister Azur? Since you are a graduate of Central Academy…“

“Ah…no!! It’s not!! I’m not a graduate!!!“

Azur stood up and screamed without realizing it,

He quickly covered his mouth with his hand and turned his head.

“It’s strange, Taebeom. Xiao too, Azur too. Something is strange.“

“I agree with Sister Natasha’s opinion…sigh…Then I will take over Central Academy…“

“No, Taebeom. I’ll go.“

“Um…?“

Natasha immediately took off her helmet and placed it on the table.

With beautiful long green hair.

His extremely tired expression was shining solemnly.

Although there were deep dark circles,

There were red veins in both eyes due to fatigue.

Her will seemed strong.

“Central Academy is close to my house, so I can sleep for about 10 more minutes.“

“Ah…that was the reason…“

Taebum nodded in understanding and turned the page to the next slide.

“The detailed plan has been sent to your mobile phone. After you choose the academy you like, please reply to me.“

“Most people would have relaxed after the exam, and everyone, including the Academy Chairman, would be away. The raid will proceed very smoothly.“

“And…there’s one more thing.“

Taebum spread his reddish arms and pointed at the screen.

There, a horribly twisted monster appeared.

“Um…what is that…?“

“This is one of the relics the high priest left me. Simply administering it can turn an ordinary awakened person into a level 4 monster.“

“Ah…Taebeom, so did you capture the pilgrims who were to receive the holy relics? What kind of believer was that monster created as an offering?“

Natasha looked at him curiously,

Taebum shook his head with a sad expression.

“As written in the script, we sent church members to search the area near Gwanghwamun, but…two of our church members were stuck in a trash can. Unfortunately, it may not be the truly accurate product the script had hoped for…“

He flipped through a few slides and played a video.

In the video, a huge monster appeared, horribly distorted in black light.

I could see church members doing their best to subdue it.

Quad deuk—!

「Kwaaah!!!!」

“Oh my… Anyway, the plan went more smoothly than I expected. If it was a girl of similar size and age as written in the script… I gave the relic to a believer I met by chance. Such an amazing beast was born.“

“Is that monster…safe? It seems that the Plaga parasites I saw that day were not well controlled.“

“Oh, don’t worry. As written in the script, the only school where monsters will be deployed is Central Academy. The plan was to first seize Nectar with the monster, then dispatch the heroes there, and then attack the remaining three locations at the same time while attracting attention.“

“I see… Wait, I have to go with that monster?“

Taebum put his hand over his mouth with a wry smile,

Natasha patted the table and looked at him as if she was offended.

“Ah…don’t worry. That monster is very good at following kind people. So, I was actually planning to have a monster accompany Sister Natasha where she was deployed. I’m sure…I’m sure the believer who turned into that monster will listen carefully to what you say.“

“Taebum, I’m sure you’re not planning anything strange. Remember that the Heresy Inquisitor is watching you.“

“Um…of course. Well… then a lot of time has passed. Shall we disperse soon?“

He handed Natasha a small teddy bear.

It was a brown-colored doll that was quite old and broken.

Natasha looked at Taebeom with an expression of confusion.

“What is this, Taebum? It’s a bit disappointing for a gift. At least if it’s new, I can donate it to an orphanage.“

“Ah, you will be able to control monsters with that. I guess they said the high priest had placed a blessing on that doll.“

“Ahh…! If that’s the case, it’s completely understandable. Thank you for taking care of me, Taebeom.“

“Not much to say. Sister Natasha.“

‘…Something is strange…’

Azur crossed his arms and watched the two.

Sometimes, I get this feeling when my senses are sharply activated.

This was especially true if it was something that smelled bad.

An unknown and terrible energy rose from Taebeom’s back.

And that dark darkness only briefly passed through Azur’s eyes.

She continued to stare meaningfully at Taebeom,

When our eyes met, he was smiling kindly and adjusting the buttons on his shirt.

“Ha…yes, if you even encountered Seojin at the academy…he would really be an enemy…“

Xiao looked at the operation plan with a distressed expression and muttered,

Azur clicked the record button and immediately stood up.

“Then I’ll go in first. Because I’m busy with work.“

“Please come in, Sister Azur.“

“Sister Natasha, don’t push yourself too hard. Because I’m worried that I might collapse.“

“Thank you for your concern, Azur.“

“Don’t be mistaken. If you fall, the executive position will become vacant again. Then, this denomination as a whole becomes more difficult.“

She giggled and took out a bottle of Bacchus and handed it to Natasha.

He immediately closed the conference room door and left.

‘You said there is definitely a traitor… I have a strong suspicion, but there is no physical evidence… ah…’

Azur scratched his head and sighed.

So I walked down the basement hallway.

—–

Beep..beep beep..beep beep beep..

Tiriring~♪

With the sound of the front door slowly opening.

Xiao appeared in the room.

“Seojin… I’ve been there…”

Clap flop—!

She immediately jumped on the bed and fell down,

He held the doll in his arms and started stroking it slowly.

“It was a really eventful day today… I almost ran into you as an enemy, just like you said… whew…”

Xiao looked at the little doll as if it were Han Seo-jin.

He was stroking and kissing her forehead very lovingly.

“It almost makes me want to fool around with you. “I didn’t aim my sword as you had hoped…I think that’s praiseworthy…”

“This woman is really…“

Azur clicked the mouse and looked at the screen on the laptop.

Another request from the Inquisitor.

He wants to monitor Xiao’s whereabouts through the camera hidden in the doll.

Of course, Azur also willingly accepted this job,

Let alone the blasphemous acts of a heretic or a traitor.

Hugging a doll like that, like a teenage girl in love,

He was immersed in an obscene delusion, daring to call the Heresy Inquisitor’s name.

“Ha…I’m still a little jealous, the interrogator made a doll like that…I’ve been a good person, so I’ll ask him to do something for me…“

I have worked hard to become his eyes and ears like this,

To be honest, I feel like I would be blown away if I received even a brief compliment from him.

Still, she was a little disappointed to be satisfied with that.

“No…no…you can’t cross the line…He is a precious being…“

“Ugh… Seojin… you hugged me so roughly… Ugh… isn’t this a public place… If you did something like this in the student council room… members of the club would come in…”

“…Ehyo. That’s it, that’s it.“

Xiao hugged the doll tightly and closed his eyes, taking a shallow breath.

Azur covered the laptop screen to protect her privacy.

Of course, I was a little tempted by her strange sounds coming through the earphones.

Right now, we are carrying out our highest priority mission.

No matter what happens, you have to focus on your work…

Tiring-!

“Aww…some stupid bitch is texting me at this hour…”

The name of the Inquisitor appeared on the screen.

“Shi…Interrogator’s text…!“

She quickly turned on her phone and checked the screen.

The message contains a greeting asking how he is doing, and a cute cat emoticon as a bonus.

And if you tell me the location of the office where Azur works,

The message was that he would send her chicken so that she could have a late-night snack with her subordinates.

“Ah…no…! Thank you for your consideration, but… we dare heretic interrogator…”

“Sister Azur, you like chicken too, right? Just call the address. “Isn’t everyone gathered together now to prepare for the attack that will take place in a few days?”

‘What…what…you already know…?! I haven’t even sent the recording yet…!

Azur was horrified and immediately sent him the report and recording.

Editing and revising are not yet complete, but

I felt guilty because I felt like I wasted his precious time for no reason.

“That’s right, Interrogator. Ah…I haven’t even submitted the report yet, but you knew…! I’ll send it to you right away!”

“I already know all the important plans, so let’s see… The price of chicken has gone up a lot these days. I will order the most expensive one and send it to you. “Thank you for your hard work even at this late hour.”

“Ah…no! I’m just being loyal to the Heresy Inquisitor…! If you send me some chicken, I will share it with my team members…! thank you..!”

Ding dong♪

Not long after the reply to the text message arrived.

Immediately the doorbell started ringing.

‘What… what… are you… already…?!’

“Sister Azur! There are chicken boxes in front of the door!“

“That…that was sent by the interrogator…! Uh… hurry and bring everything…!“

Church members hurriedly brought inside the boxes of warm chicken that had been placed outside.

The most expensive and popular one from a famous brand.

It seemed like they even provided plenty of cheese balls and side dishes.

‘It’s crazy… When I worked at the company, my boss… no, not even the high priest treated me this well…!’

Azur picked up a piece of hot, freshly fried, steaming golden chicken.

He spoke very confidently to his subordinates.

“Now, do you see this chicken? I told you how hard this body is working and how hard we are working. You bought me so much to eat…!“

“This…heresy interrogator…?! Poetry…you even know how to taste it…!“

“Ahh…! Worship!!! To the Inquisitor who gave me the God of Chi!!!“

“He is a god…! The best boss in the world…!“

In this way, the church members happily shared the chicken,

They expressed their gratitude to the interrogator who took such good care of them.

Azur was thrilled by the beautiful taste of the chicken.

He mumbled as he bit down on both cheeks full of cheese balls.

“Interrogator…I will be loyal to you!!!“

“Respect!!!“

“I respect you!!! I will eat well!!!“

It was good to follow in his footsteps.

In this way, the loyalty and morale of the church members and Azur skyrocketed.

I was able to trust him once again.

It was just a few boxes of chicken.

To be recognized and rewarded like this.

Because it was my first time in my life.

‘Ugh…heretic interrogator…you’re the best…’

So she and her subordinates,

I was having a good time.
