If you want peace (4)

Dimensional Genesis.

It was a world covered in piercing skyscrapers.

Is the area similar to Seoul?

It was a narrow space to be called a world, so it felt like the area was piled up.

In terms of pure size, it would be more appropriate to call it an ‘island’ rather than a world.

“Wow. This is Genesis.”

As I was looking at the forest of buildings, Skadi, who had come with me, looked around.

His sparkling purple eyes were full of curiosity.

“Is this your first time coming?”

“Yeah. This is a level where only high-ranking public officials can come.”

It is where all the classified information of the Human Alliance is produced and stored.

In terms of Earth, it must be a place similar to the Pentagon’s Secret Service.

It was a bit surprising that Skadi, a second-class professor, couldn’t come, but it was true that it was a difficult world to visit.

“By the way.”

Skadi glanced back with open eyes.

“Why did he follow you?”

Skadi’s gaze turned to Adeline, who passed through the warp gate.

Changing into the plain clothes she bought in Rhodes, she followed me with my briefcase.

“I came as an assistant.”

“Assistant…? Could it be that you chose him as an assistant?”

“Yes.”

Capable of parallel processing using the sympathetic nervous system, she was a person of invaluable value as a teaching assistant.

There was no reason not to choose me as an assistant since I struggled with paperwork every day.

“If it’s something like that, it’s natural to choose it, but…”

Skadi’s gaze turned to Adeline.

Adeline’s eyes met and she blinked, then smirked.

A twin wick lit up in Skadi’s eyes.

“That’s…!”

“Professor~Professor Skadi is bullying me~”

“Hey!”

ha···.

Are you on a business trip or just for fun?

It is the specifications that draw attention to these things.

I didn’t want to deal with him anymore, so I moved to the skyscraper in Centralpolis first.

“Oh, what if I go alone?”

“It doesn’t look good when you’re trembling.”

“Can’t help it? I thought you two were coming. What?”

Did you think we could even go on a date?

Unfortunately, I have no intention of enjoying it.

The purpose of my coming here was only to participate in the consortium to exterminate the demons.

“Is this Professor Yujin Kang?”

“It was true that he was coming.”

As I was walking down the wide hallway, there were quite a few people recognizing me.

Who I was, what I did, and for what purpose I came here.

Rumors seem to have spread more than I thought, but the eyes looking at me were not as good as I thought.

There is no particular reason, and it is all because of my rank and experience.

“The 5th star professor is the general manager of the consortium…”

“I admit the ball, but…”

As is the case with public offices, there is a strong tendency to focus on the immediate position rather than the achievements of a person.

It was the same on Earth, but it would be no different here.

Where people live is all the same.

“Funny. I killed Diablo, killed Omen, and protected Helios. What does rank matter?”

“People are like that. It’s even worse in a high-level secret department like this.”

Anyway, it’s an evaluation that has nothing to do with me.

I didn’t pay much attention, but the grunting voice didn’t stop, wondering if it was Skadi.

Sometimes, when I hear loud gossip, I even open my ax eyes and stare.

I’m fine but why are you doing this?

“Please stop. There will be an inspection.”

As we approached the entrance to Central Police, a guard stopped us.

A simple inspection of the clothes and bags followed, and the pass sign floated, and the guard once again stopped me from passing.

“Face coverings are prohibited inside Central Police.”

“·······.”

Was there such a thing I didn’t hear

I tried to make a reservation for a visit, but the guard was stubborn.

can’t help it

I didn’t want to wear it as much as possible, but the situation didn’t allow it.

I snapped my fingers on the spot.

Just-!

The traditional attire disappears with black flames, and suits and coats take their place.

I straightened my tie and clothes, took off my bowler hat, and looked at the guard.

“Is it done now?”

“…Saturday, you can pass.”

After passing the checkpoint, I headed to the lecture room assigned to me first.

The full-scale schedule starts tomorrow, so it doesn’t matter if you go to the lodging later.

Until then, I had other things to do.

“I have some business to do. Let’s go to the inn first.”

“Huh? I’m not going with you?”

“It’s a personal business.”

Skadi inflated his cheek sullenly.

“Do I follow? No, do I follow?”

“No. You go to the inn too.”

“·······.”

And Adeline sulks too.

It looked like there were two blowfish.

But what can I do? I have a personal matter.

Skadi’s tail hung limply.

“Can you come back soon?”

“Yes.”

“Appointment?”

“Yes.”

Only then did Skadi laugh and headed to the inn, taking Adeline, who was standing there nailed to the nail.

Adeline, who was being dragged by the back of the back, waved her hand.

“Then let’s go.”

I fixed my fedora.

Now it’s personal time.

*

Central polis middle layer.

S4-3 lecture room.

The lecture room allotted to me was large enough to be used alone.

There, I opened the documents I brought as preparation materials and checked the magic power inside.

‘Did the Circle’s magical power increase significantly?’

Linking Karina’s Dragon Heart and Circle worked well.

In the process of converting enormous demonic energy into magical power and dealing with it, the Circle also went through a period of growth.

The amount of mana that rose to the 5th circle drew 5 vivid rings centered on the heart.

The amount of mana has almost doubled, and the circulation efficiency has become much cleaner.

“It’s nice to have this body.”

At this rapid pace of growth, the body in his lifetime would not have been able to withstand it.

If one part of the body is broken, it is probably broken firmly.

However, the new body obtained through the resurrection was able to handle rapid growth and change without difficulty.

Instead of feeling sick, his whole body was full of vitality due to the increased amount of magic power.

Indeed, it could not have been a blessed body.

“…Is stage 4 still close?”

Mind Control Level 4, ‘Conquest’.

Beyond compulsion and mental assault, it is the ability to disrupt the structure of consciousness and submit to my will.

With the power to break the spirit of the beast and change the structure, it is possible to change the target of their ‘fanaticism’ from the command object to me during the ‘conquest’ stage.

In other words, if until now it was mental interference, now the monsters will move for me on their own.

And since the freed mind can concentrate magic and even extract it in the form of crystals, it could be said to be a really useful ability.

It’s powerful, but it consumes a lot of mana as well.

I had to find out how much of it was possible with the magic of the 5th circle from now on.

charleuk-

Papers fly up and spread out in a wide circle around the lecture hall.

Numerous formulas and spells that were there were shining, and like pulsating blood streams, they began to surround them in all directions.

This is a simple simulation system of the ‘sympathetic nervous system’ I wrote.

Through this, you will be able to see how far I can spread the fourth level of mind control.

If so, the ‘breadth of capabilities’ that can be demonstrated in future consortiums will be further expanded.

chijik-

Magical power was stirred, and light rose from all sides.

*

The meeting room on the upper floor of Centralpolis.

Dozens of people sitting around a round table are glaring at the data in front of them, wrinkling their faces.

Among them, a middle-aged man in a military uniform bowed his upper body.

The corps commander of the Allied Third Corps said in a tone that he did not understand.

“To entrust one professor with the general manager of the consortium. It is an incomprehensible decision, this.”

Appointing Yujin Kang as the general manager.

That was the decision of the three generations of the consortium and the Helios Council of Elders.

A special strategy team that may play a pivotal role in the ongoing war.

It was clear that the head of the consortium to which the armed group belonged was a position of great honor.

Normally, it would have been led by the Minister of Central Police or the 3rd family.

This time, it was unusual for a new professor named ‘Kang Yujin’ to be in charge.

Since that position was left to a single professor, it was natural for complaints to pour in here and there.

“I admit his career, but I don’t know the intention of placing a fifth-star professor who is only half a year old above the ministers.”

“There is an order to work, Lord Claire.”

Despite the intense fire from the ministers, Claire remained silent.

Just as he was wearing sunglasses, he was eating candy with his legs crossed on the table.

As the complaints that lasted for five minutes gradually faded, Claire finally opened her mouth.

“Robotic body kit. Sympathetic nervous system. Whose technology is this?”

“·······.”

“Professor Yujin Kang’s technique. Is there anyone here who is more knowledgeable about those two techniques than him?”

“that’s···.”

“Isn’t it? It can’t be. So I’m going to leave it to someone I know well, but is that wrong?”

It is a theory.

There was nothing wrong with Claire’s words.

However, the world does not always go according to the theory.

“This is a disregard for established procedures and conventions, Lord Claire.”

“Procedures and customs…”

The sunken eyes beneath the sunglasses gave off a cool light.

This guy’s procedures and customs are the problem.

All they do is fight over achievements, but progress on the agenda is sluggish and does not produce proper results.

Even now is not normal, even in the midst of a war that has lasted for hundreds of years.

Because of this evil, it was not able to respond properly to the ‘Abyss’ of the ghosts.

If the work had been done properly, even if the countermeasures came out, it would have come out a long time ago.

Claire hated witch beasts, but thought that witch beasts would be better for such trouble.

At least those guys don’t have anything to do with something like this.

“It is right to abolish the old evil. This agenda was decided with the approval of the three families and the council of elders, so please be aware of it.”

“I will make a formal protest later, Prince Claire.”

“Either way.”

Claire glared at them and immediately left the conference room with her bag.

“This is why I’m not on the front lines…”

I felt like my bones were pounding when I was talking to those old people.

As they ascended to high positions and their powers and customs hardened, they could not but be very irritating to the 3rd generation family.

“Hmm… It’s all self-inflicted. Let’s see if it comes out like that even after this explodes.”

Claire fidgeted with the papers and gave a sinister laugh.

“Let’s see. Has Professor Yujin Kang arrived…?”

It was stamped that the entry had already arrived.

If so, what she will do from now on has been decided.

Claire looked around and checked the stack of papers in her bag.

“Professor Lafless would be furious if he found out, but…”

Inside her bag, the documents that Lafless had secretly brought from the underground development building were dormant.

I just left the papers behind, took out only the important old papers and hid them in my bosom.

No matter how big they are, they won’t be able to dare to dig into Chief Deneb’s arms.

With a grin, she walked towards Jungang-dong where Yujin Kang was.

“Uh. Claire. Where are you going?”

As she came to Jungang-dong, a guard stopped her.

“Delivery is going.”

“Delivery…?”

“I’m going to give you this.”

Claire showed the papers in the bag.

The detailed schedule of the consortium that will continue from tomorrow.

Delivering this was the superficial reason she revealed.

“Even if you order someone else to do this…”

“Ah, what are you complaining about I’m doing?”

“Oh no!”

As expected, the response is quick as it is a place with many positions.

After checking the papers, the guard saw Claire.

“That’s it… the costume check…”

“Why. You want me to look inside my clothes?”

When I said this while lowering my sunglasses, the guard became contemplative and retreated.

“No! You can go!”

“Draw~”

Claire, who passed the checkpoint waving her hand, sighed.

It also doesn’t suit me.

At this age, I really didn’t have any hardships.

Now that it’s like this, let’s talk to the professor about a drink later.

Looking at it, it seemed like he would like soup…

“Lecture room? Did you go here as soon as you arrived? This person is also a real workaholic. He is a workaholic.”

It is possible to rest for a day, but there is no poisonous species like this.

Heading to the research building, Claire lightly knocked in front of the lecture room assigned to Yujin Kang.

smart-

“Enter.”

The answer did not wait.

Perhaps it was because it was her habit to just open and enter, Claire, without hesitation, turned the doorknob and entered the dorm.

And when she witnessed the view inside, her shoulders trembled.

“… ee, what is this?”

Papers are spread all over the place.

Hundreds of sheets of paper are spread out in a circle around the lecture hall.

The paper full of formulas occasionally glowed, and the entangled flow of magical power intermittently lit up the dark lecture hall.

Schematics and graphs, the magic circle between them.

Facing the sight of numbers and letters flowing like blood, Claire opened her mouth bewildered.

“…Cranial nerves?”

It resembled a cranial nerve, a synapse of neurons.

Claire instinctively noticed.

This is the schematic diagram of the sympathetic nervous system prepared by Yujin Kang.

“It’s amazing…”

No matter what those kkondaes said at the meeting, anyone who sees this will have no choice but to admit it.

That it was never wrong to put him in the general manager.

“Knock is waiting for an answer.”

Kang Yoo-jin, who opened her eyes, savagely lashed out at Claire.

When the swaying phosphorescence of magical power went out and the lights in the lecture hall returned, Claire smiled awkwardly and scratched her head.

“This, I’m in the way. I’m sorry?”

“… Tsk. That’s it.”

Perhaps because his concentration was broken, he looked quite uneasy.

Embarrassed, Claire scratched her cheek and held out the folder she was holding.

“This is the detailed schedule for the consortium.”

Kang Yoo-jin quickly scanned the handed over documents.

Kang Yoo-jin’s calm reading of the words had the magic to shake the woman’s heart, but Claire’s expression, wearing sunglasses, did not move at all.

“Thank you. Are you here for this?”

“Actually, this is an excuse. This is the purpose.”

Claire looked around and took out another bundle of papers from her arms.

Then, before Kang Yu-jin could react, he slipped it between the file folders.

“Read it by yourself? Don’t say I gave it to you.”

“What is this.”

“Oh, I know when I see it.”

Claire, grinning like a mischievous child, hurriedly left the lecture room as if her work was over.

“You really shouldn’t say I gave it to you!”

“So what is this-“

“Then stop!”

Then he ran away as if he were running away.

Kang Yoo-jin sighed as he saw Claire disappearing, and had no choice but to open the folder she had given him.

“Well?”

However, the shape is a bit odd.

On the old magic paper, there was a ‘black’ mark on the cover.

Black Grade File.

It meant top secret.

“·······.”

There must be a reason why you brought this.

He wasn’t the type to weigh this and that in the face of things like this.

A gloved hand unfolded and held up a classified file.

And.

“This···.”

Confidential files revealed through cover.

A secret that had been buried for a long time was formed on Yujin Kang’s retina.

The name written on the cover was like this.
