    Chapter 6 Episode 56 – Jonber 2

    Kwaaang—!!

    When Lot began to join in in earnest, the situation quickly turned over.

    The security guards who had formed a formation and were blocking the advance of the Holy Insignia were swept away by the beam of light fired by Lot, creating a gap. It was trampled by other sacred insignias that took advantage of the gap.

    “Special Forces! Follow me!”

    At least the special forces led by Bailey succeeded in cutting off the head of one of the sacred insignias through excellent coordination, but the cost was their lives.

    The formation has collapsed, and victory or defeat is now determined by individual capabilities. Naturally, it was impossible for the guards to gain an advantage over the Sacred Insignia, whose skills were equivalent to those of senior knights. In the end, there was only a massacre to confirm defeat.

    Lot must have realized that he was no longer needed, so he approached me with calm steps.

    In his hand was a fancy sword with various decorations, and a security guard who barely escaped with his life.

    “Nice to meet you. Brother Director of Management, is that correct?”

    Lot greets me with a friendly smile.

    I knew it intuitively as soon as I saw that expression.

    This guy is not human.

    It is not a metaphorical expression. From a biological standpoint, I was strongly convinced that Lot was not human.

    I don’t know the basis. It’s just that, having seen and observed countless people, I feel that Lot was not human.

    “Now. Any more than this is just unnecessary killing. Victory or defeat has already been decided. Please release the Virgin Mary quickly.”

    “I don’t know what you’re talking about. The Virgin Mary, I have never met the Virgin Mary.”

    “Now that you know everything, don’t act like a fool. Or do you really want to open your mouth if you make this poor sister suffer in front of her eyes?”

    Lot stepped on the arm of a security guard who was lying on the floor.

    “Uuuu… !”

    Her body trembles with a crunching sound. But unfortunately, I didn’t even blink.

    “You won’t get what you want from me by doing things like that, you pseudo-mobster.”

    “Then I would be very grateful if you could tell me what to do.”

    “What should I do? Just pack up and get out. Then, I will tell you by telegraph in a month.”

    “Ah. Because I don’t have enough patience for that. I wish you could tell me right now.”

    “There is no way.”

    “Ha… . I see.”

    Lot sighed, squatted down, and grabbed the security guard by the neck.

    “Now. Let’s pray to the boss to save us.”

    “… Fuck you, you pseudo-mobster.”

    “Huh. Sister, don’t you think your life is a waste?”

    “If my life was a waste, I wouldn’t be working here. I guess he wears his head as a decoration?”

    “Ahahahahahahaha… !”

    Wood-duk!

    “I’ve often heard this from Our Lady, but it’s really interesting. The management office is.”

    “Okay. If you had a good tour, why don’t you go home happily now?”

    “Unfortunately, the Virgin Mary who was to lead me did not return.”

    “Well, the Virgin Mary is not here. I’ve never seen it before.”

    “… … Hmm, ah… ! That’s what it meant. Then, have you ever seen the Queen, other than the Virgin Mary?”

    Lot, as if he finally understood what I meant, changed his title from Virgin to Queen.

    “Okay. I’ve seen the queen of monsters before. I actually brought him here.”

    “Ahahaha. okay. I didn’t expect you to know the queen’s identity, but should I say she’s the director of the management department? You are truly amazing.”

    “Please give me lots of compliments. Unfortunately, the queen you are looking for is not here.”

    “… … What do you mean by that? Are you locked up somewhere else?”

    “No. It’s true that they kidnapped him in the first place, but he ran away. So I don’t know where it went.”

    “That makes no sense. The Queen can give me orders anytime and anywhere. If you ran away, you would definitely find me.”

    Eat.

    I burst out laughing without realizing it.

    Patricia left the bureau on her own with all four limbs intact. However, the fact that Lot was not contacted means that Lot was not particularly needed.

    “That’s right… . It’s pitiful. He must have been loyal for a long time. To be thrown away in vain like this.”

    “Such slander does not work on me.”

    “There was no intention to frame me. It’s just a simple guess. Your queen walked away on her own feet and limbs intact. However, he disappeared without contacting you at all. I don’t know what the reason is, but I could have given an order to wait a moment, but the fact that I didn’t even do that… . Really just abandoned or forgotten—”

    Kwaang—!

    “Ah, write. It hurts.”

    My right hand flew off. The heat from the rays was so great that the hand was torn open and burned at the same time, so there was no bleeding.

    “Would you please stop making me angry with such ridiculous lies?”

    “I’m already mad, what.”

    “Me? no. It was just a slightly drastic measure to silence you.”

    “Look. Earlier, he was acting disgusted by saying things like “brother, brother,” but now he says it’s you. You’re upset.”

    Crunch –. Grumpy—.

    “Wow, all my teeth are going to break.”

    “It looks like your life is not a waste. If you want to die that much… .”

    “Kill me? If I kill you, you will never be able to meet your queen.”

    “That’s something I’ll take care of.”

    “Really? Then, why don’t you go around the entire empire looking for the queen who might be somewhere? Well, that guy could go to another continent. At least it’s not in the northern or southern continents, so I’ll find it soon.”

    “Then… . Are you saying you know where the Queen is?”

    “Why are you curious about that? He said he was going to kill me. Does anything change just because I know? Ah, if you knew, you wouldn’t kill me? Then I guess I should say that I know. Because I don’t want to die. Tsk tsk tsk.”

    “Such arrogance… . On the subject of humans… .”

    Lot raised his fist. It was spewing out a vicious, deadly force as if it was going to hit me in the face at any moment.

    ‘Research takes more time than I thought. I’ll have to try to make time for the next retry somehow.’

    Still, I found out quite a lot about Patricia, so it has its own benefits.

    It raised its head and exposed its neck as if to kill it. But Lot was looking at the sky, not at me, and as I looked up at the sky,

    A human figure was falling.

    Lot pushed me and stepped back. And the woman landed in a striking pose between the two of us. He was holding a sword in one hand and was wearing clothes suitable for active use.

    “Director, I’m here to report on my return from vacation.”

    It was a familiar voice. A voice that seems somewhat strict but loose, and that sounds sharp but has a few screws missing.

    “Kaira. Didn’t I send you a message telling me not to return?”

    The owner of that voice was Kaira, the head of the human resources department, who had returned from a long vacation.

    “I wasn’t able to receive it because I was busy. Instead, I brought some friends. It doesn’t matter, right?”

    “Friend?”

    One by one, women fall from the sky. Everyone had familiar faces.

    And the last two women to land.

    Philia and Liza.

    “Huh… . When did those gentlemen come again?”

    Kyra, who had left home, returned leading the knights stationed on the Eastern Continent.

    “Gentlemen! From now on, we will protect the management bureau. Implement!”

    “””Do it!”””

    At Liza’s loud command, the knights all drew their swords.

    The Eastern Continent Knights arrived, and with Kyra’s help, I headed to Olivia’s laboratory.

    “Director, it’s been a while since I’ve seen you, so I have a lot to say, but right now there’s something I want to ask you first.”

    “It’s a coincidence. There are so many things I want to ask too. Say it first.”

    “What the hell is that face… . What happened while I was gone?”

    “Ah. This had to end up in Ryuka’s mouth for some reason.”

    “… … .”

    Kaira was speechless. Because she also knew how hot Ryuka’s saliva was.

    “Now it’s my turn. Kyra… . No, should I say Julia?”

    “Call me Kaira.”

    Julia, the daughter of the Prime Minister and Philia’s student, joined the Management Bureau while hiding her identity. Her identity was Kyra. In fact, since they suspected Kyra as the most likely suspect, there was no particular twist. I never thought I would find out this way.

    “Why did you hide the fact that you are Mr. Young’s daughter?”

    “Because I just wanted to be myself here.”

    “… Well, it’s worth it.”

    Not only is she the daughter of the Imperial Chancellor, but she is also Philia’s disciple. In many ways, people around me can’t treat me like I do now.

    ‘But again, the management bureau staff are all crazy… Maybe we got along well.’

    “How much have you learned about swords?”

    “From the age of 8 until adulthood.”

    “I learned it for a very long time.”

    Judging by the fact that Lot has stepped down, isn’t his skill level quite high?

    I can’t believe I’ve been hiding this from a subject with such power. I felt a little offended.

    Even if I knew anyway, I wouldn’t have been able to use it as a combatant since I didn’t join the management bureau as a member of the security department.

    After talking about various things, we arrived at the laboratory. As soon as I entered, I could see materials scattered around in a mess and Olivia running around frantically.

    “Olivia. How much is left?”

    “Huh? Ah, Mr. Gu, Director. We are testing the last sample now.”

    “So, how long does it take.”

    ” Well, it will probably be finished by tomorrow morning… .”

    “I don’t mean to rush you, but can’t you finish it sooner? If this continues, we might all die.”

    “Errrr… ! Well, that’s the urge… !”

    I went to a random chair and sat down. There was no bleeding, but since one of my hands was blown off, the pain made my head ache.

    “Olivia. I need to free that guy.”

    “Huh? Well, if that guy… . Do you mean Omega?”

    “Okay. Omega, he.”

    “Are you serious? Is it really that dangerous?”

    “That’s right. It’s a dangerous situation. You have to risk your life to survive. Once the research is over, you can do anything after that, so you should use whatever you can.”

    “Ugh… . Well, there will be a cage inside there with OC-Omega written on it. You can release it by pressing the red button, but it cannot be controlled, so you must release it on the spot… !”

    “Kaira. Please. My hands are like this, I can’t drag it.”

    Scribble. As she was waving her missing right hand, Kyra frowned.

    “If it’s dangerous, don’t run away… .”

    “It wasn’t a situation like that. Well, it doesn’t matter because I’m not dying.”

    “… okay. I’ll come back, so don’t come out of here.”

    “Okay. If I go out anyway, it will only be a distraction, so what can I do if I go out?”

    Kaira entered the test specimen storage room and soon came out, dragging a fairly large cage about 3 meters high.

    OC-Ω written in large letters. It is the final masterpiece among the artificial life forms and creatures created by Olivia.

    “Director, you know that this isn’t really my job, right?”

    “Cancer. I know. So I’m really sorry.”

    “Once everything is finished, you have to pay a special allowance. Just like they do to pixies.”

    Does that mean you should also give yourself the same compensation that you give to heroines?

    “Do you want to receive it even though my face looks like this?”

    “It doesn’t matter.”

    “Well, in that case. When it’s all over, as much as you want.”

    Sigh. Kyra looked at me and smiled.
