“Ah.”

“Why is that?”

“I think it would be a good idea to take Ray too.”

Ray was also one of my followers, and he was a vampire.

It’s not that they’re as good as Sheila and Jang Gun, but it didn’t seem like a bad idea to bring along a solid force like Ray.

“Should I not take the 3rd Platoon?”

“Aren’t these guys’ faces too well-known?”

Lund replied that if it was just a transformation, it wouldn’t be a big problem.

“…How about taking her as a decoy instead?”

“Huh?”

Sylvia began to elaborate.

“Since Mr. Eslock and Miss Laia are famous there, I think it would be enough if Chris approached them while intentionally drawing the enemy’s attention.”

It was classic, but… not bad.

The fact that it has been used frequently since ancient times is proof that it was effective.

“Well, if you look at the members of the 3rd Platoon, that’s true.”

Unless the elders and the second tribe leader come in person, they will not be able to defeat them….

No, just don’t think about it.

I’ve had the feeling that the flag has been flying ever since.

Still, it seemed like the lower tribes would not be able to handle these four: Eslock, Lillian, Laia, and Psylocke.

“If possible, I’d like to capture him alive… but that’d be difficult.”

“Captured? Why?”

“Well, he’s a collaborator who’s been by his side for decades. If he can get his hands on all the information he has, his future activities will definitely be more flexible.”

Oh, so that’s why it’s a 100-year-old mango.

It felt noble from the very beginning. However, it is a bit insignificant now that it is in the form of a wolf.

I was still lying on Lund’s back.

I asked while pressing Lund’s head.

“Lund, wouldn’t that be a bit difficult?”

“Yeah, I guess they care about security too.”

The lower tribes could have been mobilized as a whole to guard the office of Privy Councillor.

Now that I’ve decided to carry out the request… the first priority is to gather information.

Privy Councillor Tom Glaisher is a politician at heart, so he has his own agenda.

If you are attending a special event outside of the city, you could not ask for more.

“Chris, didn’t you say you were taking Youngmin too?”

“Oh, right.”

I quickly took out the terminal while riding on Lund’s back.

“Sylvia, can I just call Ray right away?”

“I think it would be best to give a basic explanation of the request to Mr. Ilseong.”

“….”

“I’ll do that. Chris, call Youngmin first.”

As I slightly averted my gaze, Sylvia took a step back.

After all, there’s no one else but Sylvia!

***

I brought my face close to the terminal screen.

After waiting for a while, Ray’s voice was heard.

“Chris?!”

“Uh, Ray. Is right now okay for you?”

“Now?”

‘No way, no way, no way.’

Surely it won’t work?!

“Where should I go?”

Phew… Thank goodness. It wasn’t something like a prior engagement or anything, so I was really thankful.

“Sylvia will talk to Ilseong. I have a new request this time. I want Ray to help me out.”

“Okay, I got it. I’ll leave right now. Should I go to the hideout first?”

There was something I could tell just by listening to Ray’s voice.

The point is that the motivation is absolutely overwhelming.

It is natural for a servant to want to stay by his master’s side.

However… the relationship between me and Ray is really complicated.

Priest-slave relationship, master-slave relationship, lovers?

The relationships between various personalities were interacting in a complex manner.

“Okay, I’ll be waiting.”

But Ray acted as if none of that mattered.

That must mean you’re sincere to me.

I dropped the call and said something to provoke Ray.

“…I can tell you’ll come running because you like it.”

“Hey, Ray isn’t that frivolous!”

For some reason Lund seemed to be in a bad mood.

“But is it still far?”

“Even though it’s a prototype, it’s still a station master… Let’s wait a little longer.”

Plus, since you’re probably installing it by yourself without any help from others, it’ll probably take a bit longer, right?

“Then, I guess I’ll just wait here for Ray to come.”

I jumped down from Lund’s back.

“Chris, where are you thinking of going?”

In response to Sylvia’s question, I pointed to the pajamas I was wearing.

“Change your clothes. It’s a bit weird to keep wearing pajamas.”

Then Sylvia smiled as if she was proud of me.

“I thought you were going to sleep again.”

“Hey! No matter how much I sleep, that’s not right!”

Besides, sleep isn’t just something you can do in bed.

When I looked at Lund, Lund quickly averted his eyes. Anyway, this is the only time my intuition is good.

When I returned to the room, I saw Sheila and Janggun still on the bed.

Euigeu! These little cuties!

I felt like throwing a tantrum at the boat.

Midas seemed to have decided to give up as he continued to lie down as if he had been shot.

“Chris!”

This time he came up to me like a real puppy and started rubbing his face on my ankles.

“Sheila, can you hold Midas for a minute?”

“Why?”

“Ah, let me change my clothes.”

“Heeelp.”

Midas, who had been rubbing his face against mine, soon began to make soft sounds as soon as his body was lifted by Sheila.

It didn’t take long to change into civilian clothes.

If it’s too much trouble, I can just transform and beat it… but it’s not that bothersome.

“Okay, I’m all dressed up.”

After hearing that, Sheila turned Midas back to me.

“Sheila, General. I need you to take care of Midas.”

“Where are you going?”

“Yeah, something came up for a bit, so I need to gather some information.”

When I spoke with a somewhat serious expression, Sheila seemed to have noticed.

Meanwhile, Janggun said he would follow along, but I patted his head and tried to dissuade him.

“I’ll be back soon. In the meantime, General, take care of Midas with Sheila.”

“…Yes!”

It seemed like he gave up quickly, but it was nice to see him answer with strength.

***

I took the three of them out to the living room.

With the addition of the four of us, Sylvia and Lund, the living room naturally became noisy.

Not long after, Ray joined in.

“Oh, Ray, come on in.”

“Chris, so what’s going on?”

“Wait a minute, where should I start explaining….”

First of all, the 1st and 5th place winners were fooled by false information from the same source.

That information source was successfully secured thanks to Leia’s efforts, and currently, Lina is installing a prototype of a five-layer force field.

Lastly, regarding the illegal requests that were delivered to our Blue Heart office.

Before I could even explain all of this, I got a call from Lina.

“Sylvia, answer the phone for me.”

“Yes.”

While Sylvia talked to Lina on my terminal, I continued explaining to Ray.

“Okay, now you understand everything?!”

“Yeah, so I’m going to act together with the 2nd platoon led by Chris?”

“You could say that.”

You could say that Ray is a member of the honorary 2nd platoon.

Actually, it was a bit ambiguous to treat Lund and Midas as members of the 2nd platoon… I thought that if you include Rayla, there should be at least four people to call it a platoon.

“Chris, Mr. Lund. Let’s get moving.”

Sylvia said after finishing her call with Lina.

“Oh, it’s over?”

“Yes, let’s meet Aima right away.”

“Ray, let’s go together.”

Ray started following me without saying a word.

Originally, we were going to go with just Sylvia and Lund, but since Ray came all the way here, we decided to go as a foursome.

“No, since when has that been there?”

As soon as we left the hideout building, a flying car was waiting for us.

It feels like a luxurious limousine.

“If it were just us, we could have just flown away. But isn’t there Sylvia too?”

Why did Lund care about Sylvia?

“…Isn’t it just that Lund was too lazy to fly?”

“It’s noisy.”

It was so funny to see Lund react as if he had been hit right in the face.

Well, since the chairman called me a flying car, it would be my duty to give it to him!

Sylvia was in the passenger seat, and Ray, Lund, and I were in the backseat.

“Wouldn’t it have been enough for Sylvia to ride in the back too?”

“It’s okay. The passenger seat isn’t bad either.”

Although it is said to be a back seat, the space inside the flying car was spacious enough.

The flying car rose into the air and began to head towards its destination.

We discussed the gargoyles that were perched all over the tall buildings with Ray, or the views of the ground outside the windows.

“Ray.”

“Huh?”

“I’m suddenly curious. What do you think the Sky Whale Suin looks like?”

“Uh… I don’t know about that.”

The general also became my subordinate, so the progress of the transformation into a human being was accelerated.

***

I wondered if it would be possible to make the Sky Whale a member of my clan and turn it into a Sky Whale Merman.

Does it have fins and a body that flutters like a whale?

Suddenly, I started to use my imagination in various ways, but that only lasted for a moment.

Before we knew it, we had arrived at our destination.

“Sylvia, is that the building?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

There was one building that was immediately visible from where the flying car stopped.

“Oh, there it is.”

“Who? Ah….”

Just then, Lina appeared outside the building, waiting for us.

After the flying car found a suitable position and landed on the ground, Lina approached us first.

“Chris!”

“Hello, Lina!”

It was a different feeling from when we met at the bar on the first floor of the hideout building.

“Thank you for your hard work, Lina.”

Lina scratched her head at Sylvia’s words.

You said it wasn’t that hard or anything.

“So where is that Cyclops lady?”

“Follow me.”

Those who got off the flying car in a line followed Lina.

We entered a building and headed straight to the basement.

Some areas there had orange, rather than blue, force fields.

“….”

“Sylvia, is that Aka Aimaji over there?”

The answer came before Sylvia could even nod.

“Yeah, I’m a kid.”

He is a one-eyed person with only one eye. That’s probably why he seems to be even more neurotic and strict.

“I don’t know who you are, but isn’t it too much to try to catch me?”

She pointed to the orange stationery.

I wonder if you understand the 5-stage force field prototype.

“Hi, I’m Chris.”

“…Chris Radomir?”

“Yeah!”

Now, it seems that not only her first name but also Sylvia’s full name, including her last name, has become famous.

“I heard everything about the lady. I also know what the guy who ordered this to happen while recording.”

“….”

Aima waited for my next words.

“So what I’m saying is, we’ll help you. So why don’t you help us too?”

“How can I help you?”

There was absolutely no complaint of dislike or anything.

“Tom Glaisher, the Lord Privy Councillor. I would like to request an investigation into him.”

“…So what do I get?”

“Freedom, and reclaiming or avenging your family?”

After listening to me, Aima said she had one thing she wanted to ask me.

“Why me? It would have been enough to go to another source of information.”

“Because the current situation is the situation?”

I answered honestly.

“Plus, the lady has a base in the northern part of the city. It’s just right.”

He looked at Sylvia as if asking for her understanding, and Sylvia then looked at Lina.

As Lina turned off the prototype of the five-fold force field, Aima gained some degree of freedom.

“How is it? I think these conditions aren’t bad.”

As he said that, he extended his hand to a one-eyed man who was much bigger and taller than him.

“….”

Even in this situation, Aima closed her eyes and thought for a moment.

“Okay, I don’t think there’s any other way.”

“I’ll be counting on you in the future!”

The Cyclops’ heavy hand grabbed my wicked right hand.

We told Aya the main point, shaking her up and down.

What are you trying to do now, and what might be connected to the guys who threatened Aima?

“….”

Aima said with a serious expression that it would take some time to figure out the Privy Councilor’s schedule.

‘So, is this a short break?’

It’s not like I haven’t been able to rest recently, though.
