Chapter 505 – Hands on Command
“All physical conditions are normal. Thank you for your hard work.”
Marcella’s words towards the day I woke up at the medical device.
I spoke in a colorful and soft gown while being waited on by brainwashed agents from the Korean branch.
“I am not satisfied. We need to increase the number of believers.”
“Yes. However, it is better to refrain from actual combat in the future…”
“I’ve felt it too, so I’m going to refrain.”
“I’m glad you thought so. The queens were also very worried. Oh, Charlotte has reported. Currently, the headquarters is in a state of emergency, and it is said that they are concentrating their efforts on figuring out the identity of the demon king. Also…”
“Also?”
“When the demon king grabbed Irene’s arm and attacked, they said that the demonic energy penetrated her body. Because of that, it is said that not only the headquarters searcher, but also other fake colleagues sensed the energy in Irene’s body.”
“Okay?”
“Yes. However, she said that it was quickly extinguished by the power of Aether.”
Magi remained in Irene’s body and was detected by the explorers and fakes?
That was something I didn’t know.
Hopefully, we can use this to confuse fakes with a very wide detection range.
It means that the cautious behavior so far may become more free.
Marcella also had the same thought, her face slightly reddened.
“There’s a high possibility that the range of movement of the queens will widen…?”
“Okay.”
If I pretend to have contact with Sehwa and other queens, I can arrange meetings with fakes.
Even if the demonic energy flows out of the queens’ bodies, the fakes will think that the demonic energy remains after being attacked by that monster.
The problem is that Magi quickly disappeared…
I’ll have to think about this
“Things are going in a good direction.”
“For now, yes. Did Irene like her by the way?”
“Heard. You’re a shy kid. Also strong Since it’s the same youngest position, I think it would be okay if I gave it to Stella. How about it?”
“I think it’s a good way.”
“I see this as an opportunity as the headquarters is paying attention to me, so call in Charlotte and give me the things I developed.”
“Yes, Demon King.”
**
Formal inspection to show to Command.
After finishing it, the doctor opened the secret passage of the laboratory, which was the headquarters, and Charlotte came out from inside.
“Master.”
Charlotte bowed respectfully toward her own master, her me.
She said I snapped her finger at her.
“Report the status of Command.”
Then, without even making a sound of her footsteps, she came closer to me and opened her mouth.
“Two days later, the analysis team is still trying to figure out the owner day and night. There are no results like this. Oh, and…”
She slurred her words and pulled out her small storage box from her bosom.
Opening it, Charlotte pulled out the tall, thin flask that was well kept inside and held it out to me.
Looking at the red liquid contained in it, I asked.
“Is it blood?”
“Yes. It is Irene’s blood.”
The blood was very fresh. At the same time, a bad feeling lingered around.
Aether’s unique hopeful energy.
“I can feel the power of Aether.”
“She was attacked by her master two days ago, and was extracted from her when she returned with her demonic energy still intact. She brought it because she thought it might be helpful.”
“Can’t you feel Magi?”
“Aither has completely destroyed it. It remained at the time of extraction.”
The power of Aether, which was separated from its owner, still remained in the blood, and it naturally dissipated the demonic energy?
It’s well worth researching.
“Good work. How is Irene?”
“It is normal. Magi was completely erased the same day, and I don’t feel any aftereffects.”
“How was it before it was erased?”
“I complained of discomfort, but that’s all.”
“I get it.”
I nodded and looked at the doctor who was listening intently to our conversation.
Then, the doctor put a hand-sized box next to her in Charlotte’s hand and explained.
“It’s a brainwashing device, and the headquarter’s research journal is on the outside. You can take out the device inside while bringing it to the headquarters. Can you?”
“I think it is possible.”
“Good. Take it out and bring it to Seo-ah. If Seo-ah needs something, she will support it… Among the agents who can’t get out of the headquarters and eat and sleep there, tell them to start with the humans who get less attention because they are in relatively unimportant positions. You probably know it, but I’d better emphasize it one more time.”
“All right.”
“The brainwashing standards are also said to continue to be followed. Seo-ah will know how to use it.”
“Should Agent Aram Choi be on standby?”
“Not yet.”
“Yes, Doctor.”
“Do you have much time left? If there is something you want to study, do it to your heart’s content and go home. Most of the data has been transferred to the new headquarters, but there are still useful things left.”
“Ah…! Thank you…!”
Seeing how happy they are at the word research, it seems that scientists are scientists even if they are brainwashed.
I looked at Marcella next to me and asked.
“You look curious.”
At that, Matana Marcella couldn’t take her eyes off the flask containing Irene’s blood.
The thought of playing with it makes my heart thump.
I handed her flask to Marcella, who was looking at her inquisitively.
“We will analyze this at the new headquarters.”
“Ah yes…!”
@@
There were a lot of surveillance cameras in the headquarters.
All but personal maintenance time was to be spent under the watchful eye of the surveillance team.
The reason why agents who came in through thorough inspections are under such severe surveillance is because the high-ranking officials in the command do not trust them.
‘Pretentious things.’
There are no human beings who can bestow salvation anywhere.
Quieting her seething anger, Han Seo-ah greeted her co-workers and went to her restaurant.
Afterwards, she finished her meal, pretending to have a pleasant conversation with a few agents with whom she used to be like-minded though she wasn’t now.
Currently, all missions have been suspended due to the appearance of a new monster.
That monster is probably… Her master and father, the cult leader.
She must have returned her eyes to make her work easier.
In any case, for this reason, combatants had nothing to do, so they exercised after eating or trained on their own.
The same goes for Han Seo-ah, who infiltrated as a spy. Spending a very ordinary day, waiting for the timing to fulfill the leader’s instructions.
After a simple exercise with her colleagues, she went back to her room,
“Seoah Han, can I talk to you for a moment?”
She stopped when she heard Charlotte Clark’s voice behind her.
Charlotte is a subordinate of the religious leader who has even touched her heart.
Here, with no human beings to trust in her, she was her most trusted ally, her own real ally, along with Aram Choi.
“What is it, doctor?”
To the polite question from Han Seo-ah who turned around, Charlotte answered with her smile.
“I have a few questions for the agents who were in Korea.”
“All right.”
Seo-Ah Han, who shared her bravado with her doctor, entered her private laboratory.
Afterward, the doctor pulled out a familiar rectangular storage box from her drawer and held it out, and she accepted it.
“Is this something you got from the headmaster?”
“Yes. You know how to use it… He told me to start training with the most low-level agents.”
Those who are less watched.
She was also the target she was targeting in the first place.
“Let’s start right away.”
“If you need any help, feel free to tell me.”
Charlotte was in her high-ranking position, so she was relatively mobile compared to regular agents like herself.
She is an existence that can come and go even in an important space. She was a great help.
“I will contact you if necessary.”
“Yes. Which agent do you plan to train first?”
“There is an agent I have been watching. She’s from the feeding team, and I’m going to start with her because she fits her criteria perfectly.”
“Shall we send the agent to the bishop’s room with a separate reason?”
“It’s okay now that we’ve become intimate personally.”
“All right. And collaboration with Agent Aram Choi is still on standby.”
“Has confirmed. Oh, by any chance… May I ask if the headmaster is doing well?”
“How are you? He asked me to tell him that he believes in me.”
At those words, Han Seo-ah’s cold face melted in an instant.
She rejoices, like a child praised by her parents.
Looking at her like that, her glaring smile showed her glaring smile, and her doctor continued her words.
“The checkup date for the command staff is a long time away.”
It was said that there was enough time for her brainwashing.
Knowing what she meant, Seo-ah Han left her lab, telling the doctor that she would know.
Then she headed straight to the dining room, where she approached a sweet woman who was preparing dinner there.
“Hello, Agent Noah.”
A young agent called Noah greeted him.
“Hello, Agent Seo Ah Han. How was your lunch?”
“Lunch is always my favorite. Can I help you?”
“Ah… I can’t just get help until when. Are you okay.”
“I will help you anyway. Instead, I want you to talk to me in my room when it’s over.”
“That’s good. Shall we bring a beer?”
“I have it in my room, so all you have to do is come. What can I help you with?”
“Ah… It’s really fine. The dinner menu is simple, so there is nothing busy. Don’t worry about me, just go to work.”
Noah’s affinity for Han Seo-ah was high.
For this time, she has thoroughly acted as if her hobbies were the same and her heart matched, so it was natural for her.
She had quite a few consumables that garnered less attention from her that had built up her likes in this way.
Among such expendables, Noah, who was put in the position to receive her first education, she should be honored.
She should always be grateful. She to herself, to the gyo, and to the gyoza.
