Inferior ability user's return from the demonic realm

Hisae and Shima were surprised, angry, and calmly raised their voices as they heard more about this raid from Akira and the others on the couch in the laboratory's reception room.

"I didn't know you could lick me so far... Do you really think the Leopard of the Dark Night wants to interact with an institution? There are no more rules or rules against the capable opponents of the institution for a massive outburst on the public roads beneath them."

The Hisae branch's voice color was calm itself, but thus the depth of its anger can also be seen.

Miho and the others were also silently staring at Sae that day.

"Besides, I don't know why, but Mr. Marion was the target. Fine...... I'll do it for you. Until you feel better."

Hisae branch gives a niggardly and awesome grin.

"Oh, Lord Great Peak."

Shima panicked at Sae's disturbing remarks that day. Shima was also surprised by Akira's report and had it on his mind, but Shima, who was familiar with Hisae's character, felt that things were going to be bigger than necessary.

"Master Big Peak, please calm down. No, of course I think some kind of action is necessary, and I think we should. But it will be an all-out war with China, the great power..."

"They're the ones who've set me up! Plus, this is all flashy! Now if we show a half-baked response, the institution will just be insulted. Sooner or later, other organizations will feel the situation. That would also scratch the name of the institution and, at worst, could affect the separation of the capable from the institution. Shima-chan, I'm going to summon someone who's capable of belonging to the branch. Pay me twice as much as I usually do."

"Oh, Dear Great Peak!

I know what Shima is saying, but Hisae is probably right, Ming Liang thinks. Assuming only the worst, it is understandable that Hisae cannot let go of that risk as branch manager. But if the institution is to fight for real, it won't be intact. Especially if the enemy has super powers like the anti-swallow water encountered today.

Akira and the others have not communicated this important fact to Hisae. Despite the most important information to convey, the reason I didn't convey it was because it could drastically change Yuto's position. Ming Liang doesn't want to do anything against the will of Yu Man, who is also a benefactor.

But Ming Liang, honestly, bothered me. No, it's not supposed to be a troubling matter. Now that Hisae is about to decide to fight the Leopard of Darkness, if you don't tell him, he will make unwanted sacrifices to his people. Myung Liang creased between her brows and now she was just sitting there.

Hisae turned forward and asked about another concern.

"So, Miho, who's Don Du? Are you all right?

"Yes, that's what he said. I'm in the infirmary now. I think I broke my left shoulder, but I need to..."

"... yes"

Hisae narrows her eyes slightly while relieving herself.

He is a boy with a lot of research into the Du Yu people. Up to this point, the Branch Manager himself had heard reports that Miho and the others had once again been raided, which took matters seriously, but also included the contents that there were Don Du Yu people among them, and that they were injured.

The strength of the rank D boy is now being questioned by the agency headquarters. That is not doubted to be as powerful as rank D.

Rather, vice versa.

Isn't that boy capable of crossing paths with his S-class counterparts? That's what it is.

If that were true, the institution would have acquired a hell of a talent.

But questions remain. If you believe that hypothesis, why are all those capable fighters spoiling for Rank D? That's what it is. Something, maybe it has a purpose.

Either way, I'm not talking about a level where you can leave this boy alone if you think of him in terms of risk, who knows nothing about how to behave.

And the situation that the boy was injured. I can think of two things about this.

If the Don Du Yu people had the suspected strength of the institutional headquarters, that this Dark Night Leopard raider included a considerable number of capable men. This is also a big problem if it's true.

The other is that the institutional headquarters assumption was a mistake and simply a lack of strength.

It is easy to imagine that we have targeted the Marion of Rank A and, moreover, have set it up in a situation where Miho is present, bringing together quite a few prepared and capable people. If a Rank D boy was involved there, it could also be taken for granted that he would have been injured. If so, it would be reasonable to assume that this time, it was unexpected for the enemy that it was accompanied by Akira, who was also a strong and experienced Rank B fighter who repelled him.

"Again, I'll check, but you said their purpose was Mr. Marion, didn't you?

"Yes, Yuto said the enemy told him that."

"... why would the enemy bother to do something like that..."

The question of Hisae is also natural. There's no point in telling them. But the enemy will also already know that they have already moved flashly and have left evidence behind. Hisae sums up her thoughts this time before she came to ensure that she achieved her purpose, and now that it is not a big problem even if it is known. Because whether there is this raid or not, the conflict between the institutions and China has already become more serious than ever.

Hisae tries to say something... Then the reception room door is knocked.

Shima turns her face to Hisae branch, tilts her neck and stands up and opens the door.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I was talking to you"

"Blessings!

"Yuto! Are you okay now?!?

There stood a eunuch wearing a bandage wrapped from his left shoulder to his chest and loose like a uniform white shirt on his shoulder. There are gauze, bandages and first aid everywhere else.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Ah! It's been a while, Mr. Kakigaki."

"Huh!? Yep..."

Shima is called out by Yuto, who replies but becomes confused. Because this should be the first time I've seen this boy... Yuto saw Shima's reaction and brought him a voice, "Ah..." and changed the subject in a hurry to delude him.

"Um! Can I come inside, too?

"Yeah, yeah! Absolutely."

Yu Man came in with a firm foothold that didn't make him feel injured. Hisae glances at Yuto for a moment, but soon turns her expression into something soft and speaks to Yuto.

"Don Du! You had a rough time this time... Are you hurt okay? Oh, I'm Hisae Osamu, Branch Manager."

"Yes, I'm Don Du Yu Man. Injuries are no big deal, so I only got pain meds and antibiotics"

"Yes... good for you. Come on, sit here."

Encouraged by the Hisae branch, Yuto sat down on a single-seated couch next to Miho and Hisae branches.

Hisae does not change her expression, but observes Yuto.

(There seems to be a good boy like this...? Not very much, but I don't think you're as capable as Mr. Bartolo says you are. But... what is it? This should be the first time we've had a conversation...... right)

When Hisae looked at Yuto, he was slight in his heart, but he felt uneven in his current perception... and remembered something like discomfort. That was an indescribably strange feeling, as if you were doing something unfaithful that you forgot to convey your gratitude to your benefactor.

When Yuto sat down, he turned his face to Hisae branch.

"Mr. Otema, about this raid... can I tell you what I think of something I'd like to ask you?

"Huh!? Yeah, let me hear it. Sure, you were regarded as being very judgmental. I'd like to refer to that."

Hisae replied as she returned to me, Shima also lowered her back to her original position and stared at Yuto.

Yu Man was looking at everyone here and wondering how to convey the information from Gaston. I don't really want to make myself stand out in front of Hisae, the executives of the institution here.

If the institutions also show information they do not yet know, they will naturally ask where they got it from. I can't say anything about Gaston.

I also don't want to say that I am a Sendo user if possible.

Because if you only want to be explored about yourself, you're afraid of the possibility of even putting an investigation into the Don Du family on that extension line. In the unlikely event that the presence of the Don Du family becomes bright. That's why I signed up for the agency as a natural capability person.

The management properties that the Don Du family has been hiding for thousands of years can each rock the world. Especially not only Demon Cave can be known. The secret art of the Don Du family stretches a powerful bond so that strangers don't reach it, but it's a big problem just to be felt.

If... there was any movement to explore the Dongdu family and take any approach to the Dongdu family's managed properties, the Dongdu family would be crushed with all their might, regardless of the person, organization or outsider.

That is no exception, even if… the World Organisation of Competent Persons is the other party.

Yuto opened his mouth as he shifted his gaze to Miho as well.

"In this case...... no, including the last one, does this Chinese tyranny mean institutions are inevitable in their fight against the Leopard of the Dark Night?

In the inquiry of the Blessed One, Hisae Branch becomes a serious face.

"Well... we can't leave it like this. We were just talking about that earlier... I'm going to give it back together, including the curse."

Yu Man nodded.

"I agree with that idea, too. Rather than that, I think it's a situation where we have to do that already. Because I've done something so far-fetched, and I've come flashy while leaving evidence. This will only scratch the name of the institution if you remain silent, because there is also a risk that the tags of those who do not agree with the institution or of the organization will come off."

Hisae nods small and listens to Yuto.

"I hope so... it's a little uncomfortable"

Hisae looks surprised.

"Is that...?

"Perhaps this raid and curse are also set up by the Leopard of the Dark Night, right?

"Sure, yeah."

"For that... these two ways are too different. When it comes to curses, it's bodies like harassment without leaving evidence. This is not something you can forgive when you think about the victim, but it's something you know very well as a way of doing it. But when it comes to raids...... I don't care if it's cluttered or mundane, I'm not prudent. Is it the same organization that belongs to China that changes the way it does so much? And the raiders left evidence so easy."

……

And Hisae and his brothers do unto what Yuto saith, their faces and their tricks, as they think unto each one.

Marion looked up there.

"That's Yuto. Isn't it simply a difference in priority? I don't know what you're going to do with me, but it was important and urgent to achieve this goal."

"That's true. When you raid us, given their manning, I think it's pretty serious."

Yuto snorts.

"I think Marion and Miho are right. So what, how much is the Chinese government trying to do to make such an order? That's what I mean. It doesn't matter if it's a full-scale war with the World Organisation of Competent Persons, so what's the price to pay for it?

Shima, beside Hisae branch, tilts her neck.

"Sure...... the situation is unusual. There has never been a national organisation that has acted so openly hostile. That's... naturally, because I knew the power of the institution was great. But that's not the only reason. Sometimes that means that the institutional stance is not aware of rights disputes between states. Institutions only achieve the establishment of the status of the capable and the publication of their existence at some point in time, so if they do not attack directly, they will, for the most part, be thorough with bystanders. Yet this time..."

Hisae also thought about what Shima said. Without so much in return, there can be no way for national organisations to set up with institutions. Besides, the state prefers profits. The matter of the curse can be considered typical. But I can't think of the fruits of capturing Marion, even if it's a full-scale dispute with the agency.

Yuto tells Gaston that he will have some time to anticipate the information.

"I thought something was wrong there, too. That's what I thought."

Hisae wanted to hear Yuto's thoughts. I found it interesting that the boy, who was just a man of his abilities, was analyzing the situation so far. They say a lot from HQ, except for that, I get interested in this boy. And I hadn't noticed Hisae at this time, but I even had a sense of trust in this boy's analysis. As if, before, you had received useful opinions.

"Say it, Don Du."

"Yes, isn't that more government involvement in the raid? It's called."

"Huh!?

Both Akira and Shima were surprised by Yuto's flipping opinions, but Hisae received calmly.

"I see... it could be. But then... what about the mastermind? You're not a politician, and even though you're capable of it, you can't tie a girl named Marion anywhere, hostile to an institution, and then you get huge amounts of money and rights."

"Yes... the mastermind is probably the one in the Dark Night Leopard... and when it comes to being able to move this many Dark Night Leopards, the top executives or..."

"So it's the top. The Leopard of the Dark Night org chart has some research on it. They don't have a sequence. The only thing that's just certain is the leader who oversees it. If you think about it... the mysterious leader they said at the time of their death... the creepy guy known as the Count is the most likely mastermind this time. Besides, I keep my mouth shut with the government and do whatever I want"

"Yes... Actually, I heard the real name of the mastermind from the enemy. I didn't even tell Miho and the others. Because from what I heard, I didn't even know who it was, and I couldn't tell if it was right."

"That's true!?

Hisae widened her eyes wide. Both Miho and Marion are astonished, including Akera.

"Yes, I was just being treated earlier, thinking about the strange thing about the Dark Night Leopard movement, and it's not a lie though? And I reconsidered. Ever since I wondered if the reality of the Dark Night Leopard has almost turned into some sort of private soldier... So I hurried here because I thought it would be better to turn to Mr. Otema, the branch manager, for judgment."

What Yuto was saying was a lie. That's what Gaston just told me, not the information we got from the enemy.

"So Don Du, what's his name?!?

Urged by Hisae, and stared at by Miho and Marion, Yuto felt a little guilty that his heart, Miho, had become something to lie about as well. But rethink and look forward.

"The name of the chief, the Count, left behind by the enemy..."

Both Shima and Akera gaze at Yuto.

"Alessandro di Cariostro...... Count"

And to the name of that man, which Yuman saith, all that were there lost their words.
