[Confidential Files]

[Hiruko Kagetane: Formerly a police officer, and a top-ranked IP user (ranked 134th), his account was frozen and his license revoked due to excessive killings. He is a human weapon created under the "New Human Creation Project," with almost all his internal organs replaced by colored mechanical parts. He can generate a repulsive force field for defense, theoretically capable of withstanding attacks from Gastrea Stage IV, making him 'the strongest shield'.]

According to the 'Dark Side' investigation, Hiruko Kagetane has repeatedly obtained top-secret intelligence, suggesting collusion with high-ranking members of Tokyo's ruling class. Furthermore, he has been unusually active in the Tokyo area recently and has been designated an 'A+' dangerous individual by the Emperor…

[Hiruko Kohina: A mantis-type initiator, originally a powerful figure ranked 134th in IP, skilled in using a kodachi, and suspected to be the daughter of Kagetane...]

Besides the basic introduction to their origins, the following pages of this confidential file contain as many as forty or fifty pages of analysis and assessment of Yingyin and Xiaobina's abilities and strength.

J didn't continue reading. Instead, he closed the file and tossed it directly towards Tina. The file spun a few times on the huge gray-white round table before finally sliding down to the girl's feet.

"Aren't you going to take a look?" J asked with a smile, staring at Tina's mouth, which was covered in milk stains.

"We know more than the archives do, what's so interesting about that?"

So with a little push, the highly confidential file was disdainfully slid to the center of the round table.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

This is the Ministry of Defense. The Emperor was deeply impressed by this police duo, who managed to hold out unscathed against Hiruko Kagetane until a group of police officers arrived. He developed a fondness for their talent and invited them to visit the Ministry of Defense.

Of course, it was not just a simple visit. The Holy Emperor must have something to ask of him. Although they arrived at the Ministry of Defense's administrative center building together, the Holy Emperor had to leave temporarily due to some other matters, so he arranged for Tina and J to wait in the VIP room.

So the place where the two of them are now is the VIP lounge.

A massive 30-inch LCD screen hangs horizontally on the pristine, smooth, high walls. The four walls are adorned with numerous original paintings and calligraphy works by renowned artists. The floor is made of expensive, smooth marble and top-quality patterned porcelain. A round table, as translucent as white jade, is surrounded by jade chairs with a pearly luster—each piece a unique work of art.

But the best thing for Tina was that the refrigerator in this VIP room was... completely full of sundaes!

Ordinary sundaes simply couldn't satisfy her appetite, but the sundaes here were made by a top royal sundae master. The fragrant cream, sweet but not cloying, combined with the slight tartness of the not-fully-ripe cherries, elevated the flavor of the cherry sundae. In addition, the refrigerator's intelligent temperature control ensured that each sundae was kept in perfect shape and color when it was taken out... It was so delicious that Tina couldn't stop eating it.

A refrigerator full of sundaes... Did all those people who stayed in the VIP room miss out on this unparalleled delicacy?

What a waste! With that thought in mind, Tina finished her sundae and jumped off the high chair with a small leap.

Her outstretched pink tongue rolled up all the remaining cream on her lips and licked it clean before heading towards the refrigerator.

"Hey, I said..."

J glanced at the dozen or so empty cups piled up in a small pyramid on the table, then shifted his gaze to Tina, who grabbed five or six sundaes from the refrigerator and casually walked back to her seat. J's eye twitched.

"...Only an hour has passed, and half the refrigerator is empty. Is your stomach a bottomless pit...?"

Tina ignored him, sat back down in her chair, stared at the six sundaes on the table in thought, and then reluctantly moved one of them to the empty seat next to her.

He drank five cups by himself and began to seriously enjoy the food.

Although the seat next to the girl was empty, the whole sundae on the table seemed to be being devoured, disappearing quickly bite by bite, creating a bizarre and chilling scene.

It was just an invisible chestnut ball, and J, who was initially startled, is now used to it.

"But is it really that delicious?"

J, who was thirsty and curious, was about to grab a sundae to try, but just as he sat up, Tina's cold voice suddenly rang out: "Where are you going?"

A gaze, calm yet tinged with coldness, then pierced through.

After leaving his seat, J could only lean forward silently and pick up the disliked confidential document from the center of the table. Then he sat back down, whistling softly as he casually flipped through the document.

Tina's gaze lingered on him for two seconds before she swiftly jumped off the high chair, ran to the refrigerator door, retrieved and set a motion-activated bomb from the imaginary space that would explode as soon as the refrigerator door was opened, and then returned satisfied to continue enjoying her sundae.

J: "..."

At this moment

At the only entrance to the VIP lounge, a figure dressed in guard uniform appeared, followed by a group of fully armed self-defense forces.

"The Loli Abuse Maniac," Bao Xie Zhuoren.

This is a long-haired (psychological) psychopath with exaggerated side-swept bangs covering half of his face. His serious expression reveals a sinister nature, and he is clearly not a good person.

At the same time, he was also the captain of the Holy Emperor's guard, with the military rank of junior lieutenant (third lieutenant). He often handled some daily affairs for the Holy Emperor. For example, at this moment, he was very dutiful and came to the door with a gloomy face after suddenly discovering something amiss.

"Oh, what brings Lieutenant Baoxiai here? What, has His Majesty finished with his work?"

J made polite remarks, but didn't move an inch from his chair, clearly showing he wasn't giving him any face.

Zhuo Ren didn't have time to pay attention to these formalities, because he had discovered something more suspicious. He narrowed his eyes and said, "I checked, and your name isn't in the top 1000 IP addresses... Who exactly are you?"

J was taken aback: "I'm ranked 52th, how could you possibly find me in the top 1000?"

"5...52?!"

Previously, Zhuo Ren had been following behind the Holy Emperor. Although he had heard the number 52, he thought that Zhuo Ren had the strength to fight Hiruko Kagetane, so he subconsciously thought he had misheard and mistakenly thought it was 152nd or even 52nd...

Police officers with fewer than 1 members have been instantly killed by Hiruko Kagetane. How could 52 members possibly have such strength?

"Lieutenant Yasuwaki, step back. I need to discuss some matters with you two."

Suddenly, a gentle voice came from the entrance.

The Holy Emperor placed his hands together on his slender waist, his face bearing a friendly smile, and walked gracefully with the air of an aristocrat.

As Bao Xie's gaze swept over the stunningly beautiful Holy Emperor, a burning infatuation flashed across his face. Obeying the Holy Emperor's orders, he led his men out, guarding the entrance. Before leaving, he gave J a vicious glare.

"We meet again, J."

The Holy Emperor casually found a chair on the edge of the round table and sat down, facing the two men.

J glanced around the empty VIP room, except for the three people at the table, and finally his gaze settled on the Holy Emperor. He smiled and said, "You didn't bring a single guard. The Holy Emperor seems to trust us quite a bit?"

"Since J trusts me enough to come to the Ministry of Defense as a guest, I will naturally give you the same level of trust."

The Holy Emperor noticed that J was still clutching the confidential document in his hand and thought: Has he been studying it all along? He is indeed diligent and competent, a smart man.

"So, having reviewed Hiruko Kagetane's information, what are your thoughts, Mr. J?"

“Oh, I don’t have any insight or anything like that…” J smiled. “I’m no match for him at all, but I feel like I can withstand one of his full-force punches.”

In reality, Yingyin could indeed withstand J's full-force punch. However, even with the Emperor's keen insight, he couldn't discern that J was being sarcastic.

“Sometimes IP rankings don’t completely determine strength…” the Holy Emperor said. “Since Mr. J, you and your initiator have the strength to fight Hiruko Kagetane without getting hurt, you must be no worse than any group ranked in the top 2000, right?”

"Yes, what the Holy Emperor said is absolutely right. I also thought that strength should not be determined by ranking."

J's confidence brought a knowing smile to the Emperor's face.

The cute girl next to him, who was lazily lying on the table like a kitten, meticulously licking her cream sundae, quickly caught the Emperor's attention, and he couldn't help but chuckle: "Tina seems to be enjoying her meal."

The reason I knew the name was because the work permit that J had given to the Holy Emperor also recorded the name of the initiator.

Tina sipped the last bit of milk from the bottom of the cup, let out a leisurely burp, and then looked at the Holy Emperor: "Look, I heard you've been advocating for the Gastrea New Law?"

The so-called "New Law of Gastrea" was a bill proposed by the Holy Son to secure the status and rights that the cursed children deserved, just like ordinary people.

Seeing that the usually quiet Initiator Loli had taken the initiative to ask him, the Holy Emperor was a little surprised, but still replied:

"Um……"

However, as if remembering something, the purple light in her eyes dimmed little by little, and she shook her head sadly: "But... there are still many voices in society opposing the cursed children, and some extremists are even going so far as to hold demonstrations to obstruct the implementation of the law... I... I don't know what to do to make society truly accept those poor children..."

“Your Majesty, listen carefully…” Tina ignored the milk stains remaining on her little face and instead addressed the Holy Emperor in a serious tone:

"Your current assistant, 'Tendo Kikunojo,' is a lecherous pervert who outwardly supports you. I won't go into the Tendo family's scandals, but he orchestrated those major protests against the Cursed Children and the Gastrea Law in the Tokyo area... As for me, I'm incredibly strong, and my prices are fair and honest. All you need to do is prepare ten refrigerators' worth of Royal Premium Sundaes for me, and I can take down Tendo Kikunojo. That would reduce the resistance to your new law by at least 50%. And those project managers in charge of the No. 32 megalithic monument who did a shoddy job—they only charge me one refrigerator's worth of Royal Premium Sundaes each..."

The Holy Emperor was utterly astonished by Tina's words.

Suddenly, J, who was sitting to the side, jumped behind Tina, covered the girl's mouth with both hands, and said with a fawning smile:

"Your Majesty, this child has probably eaten too much holy daisy and messed up his brain. Not a single word he said is true. Please don't take it seriously. Kikunojo Tendo is a very good advisor, definitely not some hypocritical and rebellious villain. The No. 32 megalith is also perfectly fine; it absolutely, positively will not collapse..."

The Holy Emperor, not understanding why, nodded blankly.

At this moment, a guard hurried in and whispered to the Holy Emperor that his aide, Tendou Kikunojo, needed to review the agenda for the upcoming commission meeting to be held the next day.

The white-haired beauty nodded in acknowledgment, signaling the guard to leave.

Since there was nothing urgent to discuss at the moment, she left a letter of authorization on the table.

“Mr. J, the fee for this commission could make your security company very wealthy. I hope you won’t refuse.”

Regardless of whether the emperor agreed or not, he stood up and left after giving his instructions.

Perhaps it was intuition; intuition told her that J would definitely agree.

Seeing that everyone had left, J finally let go, but before he knew it, Tina grabbed his arm and bit him hard, leaving a deep gash from which blood quickly seeped out.

"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!!" J pulled his hand back as if he had been electrocuted and screamed desperately.

Seeing Tina staring at him silently, J sucked out the blood seeping from the bite wound while explaining impatiently:

"The plot is something you absolutely cannot spoil for the characters... If the Holy Emperor believed and knew in advance that the giant stone tablet would collapse, do you believe that the Supreme God would make the giant stone tablet collapse right now for you to see?"

Tina remained silent, her expression calm, but she was still slightly annoyed by the disappearance of the dozen or so refrigerators' worth of Royal Premium Sundaes.

"I'm going out for a walk."

After a moment of silence, Tina left a single sentence, jumped off the chair, and headed towards the exit.

J couldn't afford to argue with a child, so he watched Tina leave with a wry smile, then walked to the table and picked up the letter of authorization left by the Holy Emperor.

[Beep - Triggers and automatically accepts the team side quest: Escort]

[Mission Description: Escort the target to the outside of the megalith]

[Task Reward: 500 Reincarnation Points]

[Failure penalty: None]

The contents of the commission letter were largely the same as the side quest that came to mind, except that the reward of 500 reincarnation points for the reincarnation quest had been changed to 50 yen on the commission letter.

Additionally, the last line of the authorization letter states, "[The target to be escorted will meet with J tomorrow evening, so J is requested not to leave the central building without a valid reason until tomorrow evening.]"
