There is a saying that a copycat is a genius.

This means that no matter how hard a person plans, whether it will succeed or not is up to heaven. Of course, this does not mean that human efforts are meaningless.

If you have done everything you could, then you have no choice but to wait for heaven’s will, so don’t be too attached.

If you twist it a little, you could say, ‘Even if you try your best, you don’t know whether it will work out or not, so how can you hope for it to work out if it doesn’t?’ It is also related to the saying, ‘Jininsa Daecheonmyeong’, and they both have something in common in that they were said by Gongming, a superstar from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

In other words, even though I tried my best, it was full of things that didn’t work out. So… all the plans I had prepared for the first tribute event were meaningless… Well, it’s nothing.

However, even considering that, I really couldn’t have imagined that ‘she’ would pop up here. Looking back, I can’t say that there was some kind of foreshadowing, but…

▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷

The story goes back about two hours.

The director of the Inspectorate, Baek Yu-go, who calls himself R. The invitation he sent was to call in the masters and companions of each force they had identified.

By designating the Chairman as the Master and me as the Companion, everything went as I had hoped in many ways… but when I told them that the Companion was a bribe, everyone’s reaction was intense.

“No, I know you don’t believe me, but that reaction is a bit too much… .”

“No, it’s also because I believe.”

Yuna looked at me with sharp eyes and said.

“If you think it’s for Saya, I’m sure that whatever you do won’t be strange. Even if it’s obviously crazy.”

“Yeah. Honestly… I have a bad feeling about this… .”

“Hmm~. A bad feeling? What specifically?”

“Huh?”

Suin flinched.

“What exactly is your hunch? How am I going to sacrifice myself? Huh? Tell me, huh? Okay, Miss Suin. What did you imagine when you linked me with the keyword of sexual bribery?”

Suin’s face turned bright red as she became aware of the gazes of those around her. No, isn’t it just Suin’s?

“Why can’t you speak? How dangerous can your imagination be? Can’t Suin answer? Is Yuren’s face red too? If it’s hard to put into words what you imagined, why don’t you draw it? Isn’t that easier?”

Yuren hurriedly hid the notebook he always carried.

Of course, other people might have imagined dangerous things, even if they weren’t as detailed as Suin and Yuren. I sighed.

“I’ll tell you in advance, even if you really are caught and have to sacrifice your body, the possibility of what you’re thinking happening is…absolutely… … … .”

“Junior?!”

“What?!”

I sighed.

“I know it’s not like I don’t know… . Regardless of my will, my body is in danger in many ways. If it were a dirty comic, I know that I would shout ‘I’ve lost a life!’ in about 3 cuts on page 1.”

Even in a coercive, sadistic situation, it is more likely to happen sooner. It is my body, but it is a really depressing condition. I want to ask the goddess of love whether it really had to be like this.

But well… there is a certain joy in being with Senior Saya in my current body. Hehe.

“Seha Yang?”

“Ah, yeah. Sorry, I was distracted for a moment. Anyway, I know what everyone is worried about. So don’t worry. I won’t actually sacrifice my body.”

“Didn’t you say you’d adjust it to your needs first?”

“Yeah. Otherwise, things will get tough right away. Since our forces will look the weakest among them, they might try to destroy it right away as a demonstration case.”

So, this is how we deal with this.

“I will accept the demand for a bribe. But I will not give my body. That is the policy I will follow.”

There was a question mark on everyone’s face. But at least it was better than the obvious anxiety and concern.

“Hey… . Did you think we’d wait without any preparation for something we already knew? Of course we had a plan. We’ll accept their demands, but they’re too busy to do it. They can’t say, “Oh, I couldn’t eat because I was busy, but I want an extension for one night.” ”

A little more relief spread across everyone’s faces. After that, it took a little more time for them to persuade me, but in the end, they let me go with the conclusion that ‘I don’t trust your body, but I trust your bad personality.’

Senior Sayaya was embarrassed because the evaluation was too harsh, but the conclusion did not change in the end because everyone else could be said to be victims.

Yeah, for me, I’m just glad that Saya-senpai doesn’t think of herself as a victim. It’s okay.

While driving to the meeting place, the chairman suddenly spoke.

“So… what are the chances that the plan you prepared will succeed?”

“Huh? What, wasn’t that conversation over?”

“… Let me change the question, Seha. If the plan you have prepared is solid, it doesn’t matter if you are not my companion. Can I go back now and change my companion?”

“… .”

Yeah.

As expected, the chairman is sharp.

“Well… I think each plan has a success rate of about 90%. I prepared three, and if only one works, the probability of them all failing is probably pretty low.”

“But it exists.”

“What… Even that can’t be eliminated unless you become a god.”

“And in that case, you will end up offering your body. That is why you volunteered to be my companion, right?”

“… Hmm, if possible I don’t want to discuss this topic any further… .”

But the chairman wouldn’t just let it go.

“It was a coincidence that you were summoned as my companion, and if things had gone as planned, it would have been more likely for Yuren to be summoned as my companion. What were you planning to do in that case? Surely you wouldn’t say that I was slightly possessed, right?”

“Well, I was going to pretend to be Yuren… No, why are you sighing.”

“… I feel bad for the people who like you.”

“… … … … Um, I think it’s time for us to stop talking about this.”

“Yes. There is no need to talk about it further.”

The chairman surprisingly kept his mouth shut. But this is unsettling in its own way. He has a determined expression on his face…

“Excuse me, Chairman. I’m saying this just in case, but if my plan doesn’t work out… .”

“Oh my? You set up three countermeasures with a 90% success rate, so why worry about failure? It’s a waste of time, so I don’t need to mention it, right?”

No matter how I think about it, it doesn’t look like something I can completely accept… .

But it was too vague to talk about it any more. If the solution worked properly, it wouldn’t matter, but if it didn’t work at all and things got messed up… I wouldn’t know the answer in that case.

“I think I should just talk about the problem you seem to be leaving out in your success rate calculations.”

“What is it?”

The chairman looked at me with a complicated expression and then sighed.

“You… make people weird. Including appearance, personality, and other unknown things. I really don’t know if you took that into account when calculating the success rate.”

“… Is that a compliment? And… Is that a confession that the chairman has ever looked at me and felt strange?”

“Even if you guess and insist on saying it, it makes others feel strange.”

I felt a hint of menace creeping into my smile, so I decided to focus on driving again.

▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷

The place written on the summons was a large hotel in the city center. The suite was the summons location.

The chairman sighed as he parked his car and went inside.

“But it’s funny. When I talk to the inspectors, the most common complaint I hear is about the lack of budget… They rent out hotel suites for this kind of production.”

“Well, we know the answer, but they want to hide their identity for now. It would be bad if it didn’t look like much, right?”

“I really don’t understand the pre-meal caution of bureaucrats… .”

The chairman, who had been called to many different places, sighed.

“Well, even the movies that the chairman likes would lose their steam if the boss was waiting right at the entrance.”

“The protagonist who goes to such a place doesn’t go there to sell out his colleagues.”

As we entered the hotel lobby, an employee who appeared to be at the door desk came and greeted us. Perhaps he had prepared it in advance by showing us our photos.

I followed the Indian route and went through the lobby and took the elevator. I went straight to the top. When I got off the elevator, there was the entrance to the suite room.

Male and female agents, all of whom looked well-trained, were lined up on the left and right. And a woman who looked to be in her thirties with an expressionless face greeted us from the front. A mechanically synthesized voice was heard, as if she was using some kind of device.

“Welcome, Miss Elin Hildebrand. Miss Kang Se-ha.”

“… What kind of joke is this, Unnie Yuju.”

“… … … … What are you talking about?”

“If you thought you could wear a wig, manipulate your face, lie about your height, inflate your breasts, synthesize your voice, and change your perfume without getting caught, then you’re treating me like an idiot.”

“There’s nothing more you can do!”

She, who was called Yuju, sighed.

“So what exactly did you find it with?”

“If you tell me that, I’ll come up with a solution, so there’s no reason for me to tell you, right?”

“… I really hate you… .”

Yuju shook her head and took off her wig as if she was frustrated. Her originally neat short hair was revealed, although it was quite disheveled.

“So… I asked what kind of joke it was?”

“Ah, I got caught from the start, so there’s no atmosphere or anything. I don’t know. Just follow me for now.”

She turned around and walked away with brisk strides.

When we arrived at the reception room, he offered us a seat and sat down across from us.

“What do you want to drink?”

“No, it’s okay.”

Yuju’s gaze flew towards me, so I shook my head to show my denial.

“Okay. Let’s make it brief. That master-slave game you’re playing, the Inspectorate will also participate.”

“… When I asked for help the other day, the director said he couldn’t do it.”

“I’m not really trying to help you right now.”

Yuju decides with a bitter smile.

“Just being prepared to actively participate. After all, it’s the job of the Inspector General to maintain public order.”

“If the director becomes the only master, then security will be secured.”

“Well… I guess you could say that. Wouldn’t it actually make public security more certain than before?”

“This is a really crappy joke. Just thinking about the head of a security organization that can control others at will makes me sick.”

It was probably a bit of an act since he already knew about it, but the chairman’s anger was clear.

Even though he only speaks a little harshly and glares with his elegant eyebrows slightly furrowed, he has the kind of force that would make most people bow down.

Of course, Yoo-joo, who is in front of the chairman, is not an ordinary person.

“That’s right. I personally agree with you, but what can I do? Right now, I’m in a position where I’m completely dominated by both the public and private sectors.”

“… … … … I’m sorry. I know you can’t be sincere, Unnie Yuju. Can you let me meet the director?”

“I’m sorry, but you can’t. That’s… Excuse me, you fat pig… Sorry, he probably doesn’t want to see you alive and stuff.”

Yuju changed the mood by snapping her fingers and said.

“So… This is the main reason I called you here. We don’t intend to kill all the Masters. So if you stop doing weird pranks and behave, we’ll leave you alone and give you some convenience.”

“Even if I stay still, the other masters won’t stay still.”

“I’ll admit to self-defense. As long as you don’t cross the line, it’s okay. Even a violent dog can be cute as long as you don’t mess with people.”

The chairman sighed.

“… So what is it? Should I just say okay and leave? And wait until the director has sorted out all the other masters?”

“I want to say yes… but unfortunately I can’t. It’s okay to go, but leave him behind.”

The spotlight is finally back on me.

I played the role of a slightly off-kilter kid who didn’t understand the situation at all but believed that everything would be fine as long as he trusted the chairman. Of course, I kept that role even after the spotlight returned.

Thoroughly. Even using doublethink.

“?”

“… What does that mean?”

“Proof that you are not being stubborn for no reason. I will send you back tomorrow morning.”

“… … I asked what you meant.”

Yuju pulled out her gun. The gun was pointed at me, not the chairman, and it wasn’t just Yuju’s reaction.

“There are a lot of awakening ability suppression devices here, so I hope you don’t have any unnecessary thoughts, Elin.”

“… You are asking me to show proof that I am not being stubborn for no reason, but you are making demands that I absolutely cannot accept. Aren’t you provoking me to come at you instead? ”

“You determine the priority by checking if they are smart or not. Because you have to deal with guys who have the ability to control others and are stupid quickly.”

“… … … … … … … … … … … … … .”

The chairman’s acting skills… feel too good… .

I think you’re really good at acting like an angry person…

Hey, Chairman… .

The chairman getting really angry is an unexpected development, isn’t it? If the chairman gets really angry and resists, the whole plan will fall apart?

“Excuse me, over there!”

“Huh?”

“Seha Yang?”

As I shouted urgently, Yuju and the chairman’s gaze turned to me.

“Excuse me, I’m not sure, but can I stay here for one night?”

“Yeah.”

“Then I’ll be there! I’ve always wanted to come to a hotel suite.”

“Seha Yang… ?”

He hugged the chairman tightly, who seemed flustered by the sudden reaction.

“Chairman over there! Leave this to me and go back first! Your precious little sister is waiting for you at home! I’m fine!”

“… .”

“At most, it’s just one night, right? What could happen with that? Or are you jealous? Don’t worry! I’m not interested in anyone else but the chairman!”

“… … Seha Yang… .”

The chairman looked at me with a look that was desperately trying to hide his bewilderment. From an angle that only I could see, those eyes were saying this.

‘That’s too many flags… .’

But thanks to that, it seemed like the chairman could no longer hold back his inner anger.

The sight of the chairman biting his lips and enduring the turmoil must have seemed pitiful to Yoo-ju. He threw away his hypocritical attitude so far and revealed his true feelings.

“Listen to your lover. I know it’s frustrating, but everything only makes sense when you’re alive. When you’re dead… you can’t even get revenge.”

“… Sister Yuju… .”

Yuju’s expression and voice returned to normal after that exact moment. And the chairman perfectly acted out his acceptance of the offer, suffering from anger and self-reproach.

As I watched the chairman leave with heavy steps, I reflected on how short-sighted I had been.

It’s not the chairman’s problem. She would never have easily accepted the conditions that Baek Yu-go put forth, but he passed over that part too lightly.

The Chairman is smart and can make cool-headed decisions when necessary, but he is the type of person who steps forward before anyone else when someone needs to make a sacrifice.

Anyone who knows her well would have noticed that it was strange for her to make decisions based solely on cold judgment. Fortunately, she somehow got over it… but it was already bitter to think about how she had been lacking in thought.

I evaluated it as a measure with a success rate of about 90%, but it already feels like the success rate is plummeting… .

Yoo-ju, who was waiting for the chairman to leave the reception room, grabbed my hand and helped me up.

“Let’s go. You… are okay?”

“Yes.”

The moment the chairman disappeared, his expression changed. To be calm, to show no emotion, to the ‘default setting’.

Yuju frowned when she saw my expression and said, “… As expected.”.

But without saying anything more, he took my hand and led me into the reception room.

There is a bedroom there.

“Enter.”

Yuju, speaking bluntly, opened the bedroom door. Inside was a queen-sized bed and a pig.

He is often called a pig because of his height, but that is not an incorrect expression. The only word that can describe him is ‘pig’, as he is 2 meters tall and weighs over 300 kg.

His hands and feet were long and sturdy. However, most of his weight was in his abdomen, and the skin exposed from his extremely obese body was strangely white, adding to the disgustingness.

Not a fat person, but a white ball with arms and legs with a particularly small head attached to it. That was Baek Yu-go’s appearance.

But he was a capable soldier and fighter, and a man with the political acumen to hold the position of head of an organization called the Inspector General for a long time.

Both the Master Skill and the original awakening ability were extremely powerful, but even without that, it was dangerous enough.

And when I saw that sight… I was relieved that what I was most worried about was not there.

The strange traces that were visible to the chairman and to Sajamyeong. The traces of power that were thought to have been left behind by the [Apostle of the Goddess of Madness] were nowhere to be seen.

At least… he’ll act logically. If this guy acted illogically, it would be more painful.

To check this, I took a risk and came all the way here. The next step is to return without being in danger… .

“Then I’m going out, Director. Hurry up and get some sleep.”

“Okay, get some rest.”

The fact that the voice is secretly good is also a subtle part that makes me angry.

Anyway, Yuju brought me to the bed, said goodbye, and turned around to leave. Although she kept it a secret, I could see the anger and guilt in her eyes as she turned around, similar to the chairman’s earlier.

As Yuju left, the pig looked me up and down.

“Yeah. You told me to be strong. It’s my first time seeing you, but your expression is strangely familiar.”

I stayed quiet, as if I didn’t think it was something to be said for an answer.

Default, default. If no orders are given, all humans have the authority to command me.

“Design Dolzji, you?”

“Yes.”

“Who is the owner?”

“I don’t know. I was living in the lab, and one day I came to my senses and was outside, and I was given the status of Kang Se-ha.”

My origin records are falsified.

The chairman noticed it, so the Inspector General must have noticed it. And some of them must have noticed it from this overly beautifully made appearance. Design Dolls. Maybe they’ve even held them.

They say that the initial purpose of design dolls was to be sex dolls.

The Chairman received and protected the design dolls that someone had thrown into the world as a joke, and then took them as his lover.

This is probably the inference they draw. And although it is quite different from reality, there are some parts that are somewhat similar. But you can’t guess that someone is the goddess of love.

So… at this point, Yugoslavia’s interest in me has waned significantly.

“… How many people have experience in the lab?”

“Not sure. I think it will be three digits.”

I looked at him expressionlessly, as if my displeasure was blatant.

Yugo is a pig, not a unicorn. However, he won’t necessarily show interest in Design Dolls who have experienced three digits. Design Dolls don’t have awakening abilities, so there’s no point in committing a crime.

good.

That’s it. Get annoyed.

If possible, let me finish this without having to bring out the countermeasures I prepared.

“Huh. Okay, fine. Come and take my clothes off.”

What’s so good about it, damn it.

If it weren’t for the doublethink, I would have definitely been caught.

Even unicorns are white. Don’t you think you can imitate unicorns a little?

Actually, I thought there was a pretty good chance that he would get sick of it and send it back at this stage, but it didn’t go as planned.

I’ve been told by Saya-senpai, Yuna, and even the chairman to be aware of myself a lot, so could that be the reason? Do I have some kind of mysterious magic? Do I really drive others crazy?

Well, okay.

Let’s see if you’re crazy enough to want to hug me even if half the city is on fire.

The moment I was about to turn on the switch for the first step of the plan I had prepared… … .

“What the hell is that piglet doing here?!”

Suddenly, someone appeared in the empty space of the bedroom.

And the moment I saw that sight, I felt as if I had been resonated with it for a moment.

The copyist is the true master of the universe and the true master of the universe is the great master of the universe.

The world is so unpredictable that even the genius military leader Gongmyeong had to eventually control his mind with such words.

‘She’ suddenly appeared, opened her eyes wide and looked down at Yugo, then frowned at me, who was desperately trying to maintain a blank expression.

“… What the heck, you? Why are you here?”

What could I have done?

All I could do was just quietly lower my head, then carefully raise it again, and say this to her floating in the air.

“Hello, Mom. It’s been a while.”

One of the three knights, the ultimate weapon of this country, and Mia, the mother of Senior Saya, was there.
