“Oh, just thinking about it… ”
I calmly admitted that my true feelings had come out.
-… Master, are you doing this on purpose?
‘of course.’
For some reason, it seemed like Maria was giving me a disrespectful look, but I just ignored it.
It was natural, but I didn’t make the stupid mistake of confusing what was really on my mind with what I was actually saying. It’s not like I’m in any pain, so I can’t possibly make that mistake.
I just did this because I wanted to skip the annoying hassle and get the job done quickly.
‘And I couldn’t come up with a good answer because of Dean Graham’s high-handed manner in which he spoke.’
-In the end, you said you did it because you didn’t like it!
‘That’s right.’
But so what can a dean do?
Is there anything else I can do other than make a grim face and look like I chewed shit?
Who is turning a blind eye to whose mistakes are the first to come up with Telos at the Academy? He still seems to think he is the head of the agency, but it is a ridiculous way of thinking.
I didn’t attach any meaning to the title of agent in the first place, and Janey has now given up on it.
‘Still, it looks like you went through a lot of trouble.’
I glanced at Dean Graham, who was clearly looking very angry.
The man with the hard and blunt image I saw at the Academy was no longer there. What should I say now? He looked more like a rough mercenary than a soldier.
There is a saying that when a person is put in a difficult situation, they show their bottom. Dean Graham, who was a solemn soldier, had gone somewhere, and here was a serious man who was looking at me with a straight face for making a joke.
‘The dean who said he was useful for dripping is dead.’
-Ajae drip… ?
‘It taught me how to distinguish between people who are not taking EDP-427.’
-… What does uncle drip have to do with that? I have no idea what you’re talking about.
I left the oblivious Maria to worry and continued with my thoughts.
Maybe it was just the effect of the medicine that made him seem like a cold-hearted soldier during his academy days. It may be that we are now free from the effects of EDP-427.
It wasn’t a bad story to me.
No, it was actually good news.
The fact that his emotions are so easily shaken means that Dean Graham is in an unstable state.
‘It makes it easier to investigate Telos’ whereabouts.’
The only reason I didn’t blow Dean Graham’s pot as soon as I saw him was to find out Telos’ whereabouts.
If he is storing Telos in a secret location known only to himself, he must not be killed here.
However, you cannot go down there and say you will make him your superior again.
Not only was there no way I could just hand over Telos to Dean Graham’s army game, but time was too precious.
For that reason, the current situation was a confrontation with Dean Graham.
“What did you say just now?”
“Ugh… Even my clothes were all burned.”
Tsk.
I deliberately ignored Dean Graham’s words and shook the dust off my body.
The heat generated by this ability was so strong that, unless it was a hero suit specially made in the world of Namhira, I would always throw away my clothes when I used my ability in earnest.
As I watched Dean Graham’s face becoming more and more distorted like a demon, I felt like if I scratched him any further, he would pull the trigger without even asking.
He took out some extra clothes from his inventory and put them on.
“Unexpectedly, the Danube border area is quite large, so I was confused about where the refugee detention facility was, but thanks to the pillar of fire created by a unique entity, I was able to easily find it.”
I was surprised when suddenly a mutant who used fire like me appeared. If he were not careful, Dean Graham could have been reduced to ashes before even seeing Telos.
I was so shocked that I ran with all my might, and just in case, I used the Heavenly Bow Fireball as my special ability like when I dealt with Tuma.
It takes advantage of the fact that if you mix a special ability with the Negongsim method, the firepower of the special ability increases dramatically. He’s also a mutant who can control fire, so wouldn’t he be immune to fire? In that case, all you had to do was heat it to a temperature so high that it couldn’t withstand it.
When I use this method, my blood vessels also get hot.
In fact, I don’t know if the mutant was struck by a supernatural ability or simply died from the shock of being kicked by me, but he was stuck to the wall like a sticky rice cake…
“… How on earth did they pull clothes out of thin air? And, you found me?”
Dean Graham looked at me warily. He also noticed that there was something strange about the current situation. Even though I saved the facility from an unusual mutant, my attitude was never favorable to him.
“I’m sure the only ability you had was handling fire. What is that ability that took out the clothes? What is the purpose of coming here?”
“Well… Maybe I wasn’t the type of person who was smarter than I thought.”
After putting on all my clothes, I scratched my head.
“Why did I come all the way here to meet this disgusting man? I want to see again the face of my superior, who is weaker than me and who did not treat me well when I was an agent. Can you guess anything?”
“… I don’t know where or what I heard, but whatever I heard was probably a completely baseless rumor. I took nothing with me when I left the academy.”
Dean Graham denied it with a hard face. It seemed like he realized that I had come for Telos.
‘Right. Is it there?’
However, unlike his violently negative words, his body’s reaction was honest.
I was observing him using high-speed thinking. And after hearing my story, I could see Dean Graham unconsciously bringing the other hand holding the pistol into his arms. I immediately changed my movements to pretend to wipe away the sweat, but I couldn’t avoid my eyes, which were watching his reaction as time slowed down.
‘that’s interesting. ‘Really?’
-Ahem. Human psychology is simpler than you think! To me, the best artificial intelligence, these simple predictions and analyzes are like four basic arithmetic operations!
Maria sent a proud voice.
‘okay. ‘I’ll admit it this time.’
-This is it! Always acknowledge me! always!
I didn’t make fun of Maria or ignore her either.
That’s because everything I did after discovering the refugee detention facility was according to Maria’s carefully calculated plan.
This operation was carried out by accepting Maria’s opinion while thinking about how to rob Telos from Dean Graham.
An imminent situation where one’s life is threatened by a mutant. Fluctuating emotions due to not taking EDP-427. It is no exaggeration to say that the monster-level strongman who suddenly appears is his former subordinate, and what he is after is his lifeline.
Due to the tight tension and concentration, it was natural for the attention to be naturally drawn to the location of the object, either unconsciously or consciously.
Even in the process, a unique mutant that attacked a refugee detention facility helped create a more dramatic scene, so it was a perfect plan and luck.
If a person does not get upset even in this situation, he or she is probably a test subject at the Moralis Institute who has been modified to have EDP-427 flowing through his or her veins instead of blood.
-The owner has a lot of wild imaginations.
‘There are actually some humans who automatically synthesize alcohol in their bodies, but is this the case?’
He stopped the high-speed accident and calmly spoke to Dean Graham, pretending not to have seen anything.
“Really? But I haven’t told you what you brought yet. It looks like something is stabbing me.”
From observation, it appears that Telos, or an object related to the location where Telos was hidden, is now in Dean Graham’s possession.
In that case, in order to fully obtain it, he had to avoid burning Dean Graham with his supernatural ability.
‘If you have an ampoule containing Telos instead of a safe key, I should be careful about hitting it.’
It was obvious that if I accidentally touched it and damaged it, I would shed bloody tears out of regret.
“That’s… ”
“and.”
I interrupted Dean Graham, who was trying to explain something.
“Although he says he didn’t take anything, the clothes and equipment he’s wearing now seem to be items he used when he was an agent.”
“… … .”
This was not Dean Graham’s attire that I had seen at the Academy. However, I was able to confirm that there were many similarities to the clothes I wore while working as an agent. Should I say it’s a slightly older version of it?
It seemed to be the clothes Dean Graham wore when he was active.
I said, trying to make him look as annoyed as possible.
“A man should keep his word. You brought nothing from the academy? Then, take off all your underwear and get out of here. Then I won’t kill you.”
