Alchemists do not need self-cultivation

He always thought that IISO was like the police's father, and that the police had to do whatever they said. But not only did Isaac not cooperate, he even beat up their people.

"Then what do you suggest we do?"

"We should at least ask for medical expenses."

"Great idea, are you going?"

"This……"

The staff member turned around and said, "If there's nothing else, you can leave now. Don't think so negatively."

The previous staff member was too arrogant and offended all the police officers of the Tiantong Civil Security Company, including Isaac.

Around that time, the Katagiri siblings, along with Akimasa Nagisawa and Midori Fuse, also joined the company.

At Isaac's behest, a group of hot-tempered police officers, led by the Katagiri siblings, beat the man severely and threw him out of the company. He simply didn't trust his subordinates and had no choice but to handle the situation personally.

Just then, his phone rang.

It was a call from headquarters.

"Hey?"

"How's it going?" A deep voice came from the phone.

"I'm so sorry! The retrieval mission failed." The staff member said, bowing deeply at a 90-degree angle, even though the person on the phone wasn't standing in front of him.

"Failed? Have you been in charge of the Tokyo area for too long? Do you need me to transfer you to a lower level so you can relearn things?" The voice was still low, but you could still tell that the person on the phone was very angry.

The subordinates standing to the side broke out in a cold sweat.

"But... this was protected by Rentaro Satomi."

"..."

There was a moment of silence on the phone.

Headquarters wouldn't normally get involved in something as simple as reclaiming an IP ranking in the top 100, and they were unaware that Isaac was involved.

"that……"

"This is not your fault. Remember to report anything to me immediately in the future."

"Yes."

The call ended, and the staff member breathed a sigh of relief. At least they weren't going to be demoted.

At the same time, his opinion of Isaac rose to a new level.

-

Isaac remained in the meeting room.

Just after the IISO people left, a girl with long, black hair reaching her waist walked in.

“Lord Satomi, thank you for your help this time,” Mibu Asaka said gratefully.

She had come from IISO and was very familiar with the situation there; she didn't want to go back and be kept under surveillance.

“It’s nothing, I already promised that old man,” Isaac said.

Mibu Asaka walked up to Isaac, suddenly knelt down, and respectfully took the katana from her waist and placed it in Isaac's hand.

"As agreed, my power is given to you. Use it freely, my master."

Isaac took her katana and said softly, "No, I haven't done anything that would make you loyal, and besides, that old man isn't dead."

"but……"

“Go back and take care of him. He has lost an arm and a leg and needs help.” Isaac smiled and put the katana back on her waist. “You can work as a security guard at the company during your days off.”

After listening to Isaac's words, Mibu Asaka hesitated for a moment, then bowed her head and kowtowed before standing up.

"Mr. Satomi, you are at my beck and call from now on."

The way she looked at Isaac was completely different from before.

After Mibu Asaka left, the reception room fell silent again.

However, not long after, Kisara hurriedly walked in.

"Satomi! So you've been here all along."

"What's wrong, boss? Why are you in such a hurry?" Isaac asked.

Kisara walked up to Isaac and grabbed his arm.

"Come with me to a place."

"where?"

“The dojo of the Tendo school,” Kisara said.

At that moment, Isaac also looked up into Tendo Kishou's eyes. It was a strange look, a mixture of pleasure and hatred.

"What happened?"

Kisara said, "I sent the evidence of the insufficient purity of the No. 32 megalith to Tendo Kazuhiro and invited him to meet at the Tendo-ryu dojo."

Isaac roughly understood what this meant.

Kisara wanted to deal with Tendo and Hikaru, so he sent them evidence of their embezzlement in order to lure them out.

"Boss, have you decided to get rid of your own brother?"

"What are you talking about, Satomi?" Kisara looked at Isaac, his eyes seemingly filled with confusion. "Isn't this my long-cherished wish?"

Isaac stared into her eyes for a long time, then suddenly laughed and said, "Okay, I'll go with you."

"Mm." Kisara smiled happily.

Chapter 327: The role of a villain suits me better.

The Tendou school was originally an extremely secretive school passed down only within the Tendou clan, but after gradually opening up to the public, it also established dojos.

Right in front of Isaac was a bungalow with a high ceiling, a half-destroyed dojo of the Tendou school.

Or it could be the site of a temple.

Isaac and Mugen went inside and sat down.

About a week has passed since the end of the battle, and the No. 32 megalith has been rebuilt, and the originally cold weather has returned to the feeling of summer.

"Boss, do you have air conditioning here?"

"How could there still be something like that in something so broken?" Kisara covered his face and didn't look at Isaac.

The two waited in the dojo.

A short while later, a pale-faced adult man and a woman dressed in office lady attire entered the dojo.

The man was none other than Kazumitsu Tendo, Kisara's half-brother and the Vice Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism.

Kisara's previously downcast face slowly lifted:

"It's been a long time, Brother Kazumitsu."

"Kisara..."

He called out his sister's name with a hint of resentment.

Her long, straight, jet-black hair shimmered in the slanting rays of the setting sun streaming through the window, creating a striking contrast with her porcelain-white skin. Tendo Kisara, dressed in thigh-high socks and a black sailor uniform, stood right before her.

His gaze shifted to Isaac beside Woodcock.

He had heard his grandfather mention before that Rentaro Satomi was no longer the kid he used to be, but had become an extremely dangerous being.

Scorpio and Aldebaran are practically invincible in terms of combat power alone.

He looked at Mu Geng's increasingly grim expression. What did she mean by bringing this dangerous person here? Was she determined to get rid of him?

Kazuhiro took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

"Brother, you kept your promise and didn't tell anyone you were coming here, did you?"

Kazumitsu shrugged and said, "Thanks to you, I haven't left the car and walked in a long time. Did you also bring what we agreed on?"

"You mean this?"

Kisara threw the documents in his hand in front of Kazumitsu.

Kazuhiro picked up the document at his feet and started reading it. He tried to suppress his emotions, but his expression grew increasingly grim.

"Where did you get the document?"

Isaac raised his hand and said, "I went to investigate."

"What!?"

Kazuhiro's eyes were filled with hatred as he looked at Isaac.

"I should have disposed of them all."

"Yes, but your competitor kept a copy."

Competitors?

Kazumitsu suddenly remembered that there was another person who had competed with him for the position of Vice Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism.

"Hashida Asahi?"

"It seems you still remember."

"Hmph, we shouldn't have kept him in the first place," Kazumitsu sneered.

Kisara then spoke up, "During the height of the Third Kanto Campaign, we always found it incredible. How could Aldebaran, which was at most Phase IV, be attached to a megalith? At first, we suspected it was due to geographical conditions and Aldebaran's special abilities, but in the end, we focused on whether there was something wrong with the No. 32 megalith itself. After investigation, we found something suspicious. Wasn't the person in charge of building the No. 32 megalith, which was constructed at the end of the Gastrea War, Kazumitsu-nii?"

Mu narrowed his eyes like a cat hunting its prey, spread his hands with a sadistic intent, and continued speaking:

"Nowadays, to prevent corruption or bid-rigging, public works projects are awarded through open bidding, but the process has become relatively complicated. The construction of megaliths is a project that requires timeliness, so the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism directly coordinates the contractors and directs the construction. Brother, it is not commendable to add a mixture to holmium to make cheap megaliths and embezzle the excess funds."

Kazuhiro's body trembled violently, and his clenched fists shook.

"Of course, mixing will reduce the purity of holmium and decrease the ability of Gastrea to generate magnetic fields that they dislike. As a result, any Gastrea that is strong enough may be able to withstand the weakened magnetic field of the megalith and attach itself to it," Kisara said with a smile.

"Theoretically, that purity is not a problem!" Kazumitsu argued loudly.

"But hasn't this already caused a problem?" Isaac watched He Guang's explanation with boredom. "Do you think you can escape responsibility by bringing this up now?"
