Crossover Anime: How a Shameless Person Lives

Today is definitely a memorable day.

At least that's the case in Japan.

The Vatican, with over a billion believers worldwide, dispatched Archbishop Maxwell for a friendly visit.

As an archbishop of the Vatican, and in this world with extraordinary abilities, Maxwell's status is absolutely high.

This is equivalent to a king of a different surname who held military power in ancient times.

It is a being capable of deploying an army for war.

Therefore, Chiba City Airport, the location of Maxwell's first visit, had been completely cleared out, and those big shots who could only be seen on television were already waiting there.

High-ranking local political officials, top Self-Defense Force leaders, core members of major established conglomerates, and newly promoted CCC Chief Marute Sai were all present.

Whether it's cooperation, currying favor, seeking protection, or "making friends," they have a million reasons to reach out.

Among these important figures, two groups of people seemed out of place.

……

The first wave was led by Lady Yukinoshita, a local power in Chiba Prefecture.

She wore a minimalist black custom-made suit, without any jewelry or accessories that symbolized her status, and her long hair was neatly tied up.

His eyes showed an unusual hint of tension.

As the head of the Yukinoshita family, which has been entrenched in Chiba Prefecture for over a century, she can maintain a calm demeanor while conversing and cooperating with the Shinomiya Zaibatsu and cabinet ministers.

Because they all operate within the framework of rules called Neon.

But they were facing a papacy with extraordinary power and over a billion followers.

She didn't believe that Japan's unspoken rules could restrain the other party.

Especially at this juncture, Chiba City has just suffered a disaster, and the other party has come by name.

If you say there's no connection, who would believe you?

Everyone could see it, but they tacitly kept quiet about it.

Those higher-ups who knew why they came here would never tell anyone.

Not to mention their Yukinoshita Group, in the eyes of these truly important figures, they were nothing more than lackeys, standing out like chickens among cranes.

She looked up at the empty, cold area on the other side.

Compared to her, the other group was even more of a contrast to the two of them.

Beast Group.

There were no ceremonial guards, no pomp and circumstance, and no official status whatsoever.

They were all dressed in suits, exuding a repressed and irritable aura, completely out of place among the respectful, obsequious, and calculating dignitaries around them.

Especially the girl who was leading them.

"Kasumigaoka Utaha, a second-year high school student at Toyonosaki Academy, is also the secretary of Yoshimura Eto, the vice president of the Beast Group."

Yukinoshita stayed close to her mother, whispering a reminder in a low voice, her gaze fixed on the girl, barely able to contain her envy.

Having grown up in the world of power and business, she knows best what this treatment means.

In her view, this ordinary girl had achieved instant success.

From an outsider's perspective, no matter how much the Beast Group exploits its employees, the group's top executives are always the focus of attention.

Even cabinet ministers are trying their best to win them over.

It's all because of that man.

Don't you see, it was only because Yukino joined the Yukino family that the Shinomiya Zaibatsu and Minister Fujiwara were able to sit down and discuss cooperation "peacefully"?

Not to mention that this girl was actually assigned to receive the archbishop of the Vatican.

This shows just how high a position this high school student named Kasumigaoka Utaha holds within the Beast Group.

At this moment, it wasn't just Yukinoshita and her daughter who had their eyes fixed on Kasumigaoka Utaha.

High-ranking political officials, tycoon leaders, and Self-Defense Force commanders secretly weigh the pros and cons.

Dozens of high-ranking figures, who usually hold sway over the lifeline of Japanese society, all had their eyes, intentionally or unintentionally, drawn to the girl's figure.

……

Shigu Yan'an's expression was solemn, and a calculating glint flashed in her eyes.

He was thinking about how to win over this girl.

The Shinomiya Zaibatsu, which controls most of Japan's economy, actually tried to win over a high-ranking executive of an ordinary local gang?

It sounds ridiculous, but it's true.

To the average person, Kasumigaoka Utaha's position within the Beast Group seems to be merely that of a secretary.

However, according to information gathered by their high-level intelligence network, this girl's status within the Beast Group is extremely special.

All intelligence suggests that she is practically the designated head housekeeper for the group!

In other words, every word she said and every decision she made at the airport today is equivalent to the attitude of the Beast Group and the will of Mercury.

With this level of authority, even if Fujiwara Daichi were here, he would have to speak to her politely.

……

He shared the same idea as many others.

Everyone here is a smart person standing at the top of the country, and they are well aware of the gap between power and strength.

Especially given that the country is not at peace right now.

The gap between strength and power began to widen gradually.

Even so, they wouldn't fawn over each other like lackeys.

The research on parasites, the experiments hidden in the shadows of their respective families.

These high-ranking figures at the top of the country have long been prepared to flee on multiple fronts.

……

Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was on the list of those important figures trying to win over, did not understand the weight she represented.

Standing here alongside these important figures whom I usually only see on television.

She felt her calves twitching and her palms were covered in sweat.

What makes her so special that she deserves to attend with these important figures?

I'm just a 19-year-old high school student, working for the Beast Group!

Even Ms. Takatsuki Sen hadn't told herself that so many important people would be coming!

"Gecko, hasn't Professor Takatsuki Sen arrived yet?" Kasumigaoka Utaha asked the burly man in a suit beside her nervously.

This is a weight she cannot bear!

"Lady Eto said that you should receive her first, as she has important matters to attend to," Yakumo replied calmly.

Completely ignoring the gazes of the important figures present.

For him, there was only one truly important person: the BOSS and Lord Aite.

The others are nothing but clay chickens and earthenware dogs.

"What?!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's voice involuntarily rose a octave, then she lowered it again, "Didn't Takatsuki Sen-sensei say she would be coming?"

"Lord Eto was lying to you." Yamori Yakumo calmly gave a reply that broke Kasumigaoka Utaha's heart.

Kasumigaoka Utaha's pupils trembled slightly, and she froze on the spot.

Only three words echoed in my mind.

"You tricked me..."

……

Those closest to her, such as Shinomiya En-an and Marude Sai, accurately captured her stiff and uncomfortable feeling.

She's naive, inexperienced, and young. Stripped of the Beast Group's filter, she's just an ordinary girl who gets nervous and anxious.

But that's precisely why it's even more dreaded.

Holding power blindly is the most perplexing situation.

She was unaware of the impact her words and attitudes could have on the situation.

This is also the most worthwhile area for breakthrough.

Some people's minds are becoming increasingly active.

In this atmosphere of silent calculation, the roar of engines in the sky suddenly became clear, reverberating throughout the empty helipad.

The Vatican's special plane has arrived!
