Anime, infinite dimension starting from Mahou no Yakumo

"Yes, Lady Mine!"

The little girl Mine, dressed in a black and white maid outfit, is directing them.

With her hands on her hips, she looked like a little adult, her pink ponytails swaying and swinging, exuding quite an air of authority.

"Wow, not bad. I didn't expect you to change so much in just three days."

"Who?"

Mine suddenly frowned her cute little brows, as if she wanted to say, "Can't you see I'm busy?! No slacking off allowed."

Suddenly realizing it was a male voice, and speaking in such a literary style, Mine immediately turned around and threw herself into Mahiro's arms.

"Master, you're back! It's so wonderful! Mine missed you so much these past few days!"

Like a swallow returning to its nest, Mine gave him a passionate hug on the spot, gently rubbing against his firm chest, expressing her longing for him in recent days.

Those rosy cheeks looked especially tempting, making me want to devour them.

The busy maids nearby were all dumbfounded.

I never imagined that the seemingly small but fierce Mine could have such a charming and adorable side. I really want to hold her in my arms and cherish her...

However, what surprised them even more was that their master, the male owner of this mansion, Yotsuba Mahiro, looked so young and handsome.

Completely different from the fat, pig-like nobles I had imagined, she seemed to possess an innate elegance.

"What are you looking at! No slacking off, get to work!"

Mine noticed that everyone around her seemed to be looking at her, so she turned her head, bared her little fangs, and said fiercely.

The maids immediately realized what was happening and replied in unison, "Yes, Lady Mine!"

"Oh my gosh..."

This scene surprised Mahiro.

"I didn't expect Mine to be a junior supervisor now. Tell me how you did it, how do you get these people to listen to you so well?"

He was curious.

But Mine shyly buried her head in his chest and said in a muffled voice, "Actually, it's nothing... It's just that a slave trader happened to pass by a couple of days ago, and I paid to buy them to serve as my subordinates."

"Master, you won't blame Mine for acting on her own, will you?"

Mine timidly raised her head, her previous imposing manner completely gone, replaced by a soft and gentle demeanor.

"Of course not. I handed over all responsibilities to you before I left. You can build this mansion entirely according to your preferences."

Moreover, besides Mine, there are only a dozen or so maids in the mansion at most, which is far from enough.

After all, this mansion is indeed enormous.

We'll need to recruit some guards and such afterwards.

"Thank you, Master!" Mine smiled happily, her eyes narrowing into slits.

"Then what?"

"Then... actually, I wasn't very good at managing it at first, but one day I secretly went out for a walk and met a kind person who taught me a method: to act more stern and ensure that orders were obeyed, so..."

I'm sorry, Master, I didn't listen to you and secretly ran away..."

This girl...

Mahiro smiled helplessly and reached out to touch her hair.

"Mine, you really are an idiot... The reason I don't let you go out isn't because I'm afraid you'll encounter danger, you know?"

Mine nodded slightly, though she kept her head down, as if failing to obey her master was a serious matter to her.

"But speaking of which, Mine, who was the kind person you met...?"

Someone who can teach Mine how to manage subordinates must be extraordinary, right?

However, when this was mentioned, Mine immediately perked up.

"Actually... I met that person by chance at the market in the capital. She was a blonde older sister! Although her clothes seemed a bit out of place in the capital, she turned out to be a kind person!"

For some reason, listening to Mine's description gave me a strange sense of déjà vu.

On the market street, she looked out of place, and she was a blonde older sister...

Leone?

However, it seems like several years have passed since Night Raid was established. How could Leone, who hangs out on the streets, possibly meet Mine by chance?

Is this fate, or something else?

Even so, he didn't dwell on it too much.

After all, he would meet all of these people who launched the night raid one day, so there was no need to feel sentimental about it.

-------------------------------------

Nighttime, inside the tavern.

"Hey, have you heard? Our newly appointed deputy minister is actually a little brat."

A burly, drunk man was holding a wooden bucket cup, drinking and acting crazy.

Those around him kept their distance, especially the women, who quickly hid, afraid of being seen by this man.

It was simply because this person was wearing the uniform of the Imperial Capital Garrison, and it was even the captain's uniform.

"Heh, I bet it's some young master from some wealthy family who parachuted in, right? Sigh, it was supposed to be our turn for this selection, but it looks like we'll have to wait a few more years..."

"No, no, I heard that this kid bribed the minister with a lot of money to buy this position."

"Oh? Really?! In that case... Oh, aren't you going to say something?"

The captains' gazes all fell on the man in the corner of the tavern.

The man was burly and strong, with a long sword at his waist. His muscles were clearly the result of countless battles.

He had an ugly scar in the shape of a cross-shaped dart on his left eye, and his whole body exuded a fierce aura.

His appearance, like his nickname "Ogre the Demon," is not flattering. However, despite his unattractive appearance, Ogre is very strong and can be considered one of the top teams among their captains.

"Hmph... What are you saying? We'll teach that brat a lesson tomorrow and show him that the Imperial Capital Garrison isn't a place just anyone can get into!"

As he spoke, Ouka forced a somewhat tyrannical smile onto his ferocious face.

The cruel aura he exuded excited the other captains, who all toasted Oka, saying that everything depended on him tomorrow.

-------------------------------------

Silent all night.

The following day, Yotsuba Mahiro successfully took office as the deputy head of the Imperial Capital Garrison.

But problems will follow.

Besides having to handle various case files, the team leaders seemed very dissatisfied with him sitting in the position of deputy minister.

Especially that guy with the scarred eye, who went straight up to provoke them.

"Hey kid, you're the new deputy minister? Did you bring your diapers? This is the Imperial Capital Garrison, in charge of the security of the capital. This isn't your place to act like a brat who hasn't been weaned yet. Go home and nurse!"

Oka, standing at two meters tall, looked down at him condescendingly and even spoke rudely to the head of the security force.

The others immediately burst into laughter.

The minister didn't say a word, but simply narrowed his eyes, clearly watching the show.

"Testing my waters? Interesting."

Yotsuba Mahiro has already figured it out.

The minister's meaning was simple: if he couldn't even keep these captains in check, then he wasn't qualified to be the deputy minister of the security force.

"You'll soon find out whether I'm qualified or not."

Yotsuba Mahiro smiled kindly and walked slowly forward.

His voice was so soft that these people simply ignored it.

"Oh? Looks like you've got some skills, kid. You want to fight me? Well then, I'll break one of your legs as a lesson."

Ouka grinned, his smile cruel.

But the next second.

Snapped--

The crisp sound of a slap echoed in the room.

Suddenly, a large smear hit Ouka in the face, sending him flying. He spun 1080 degrees in mid-air before crashing heavily to the ground.

Ouka felt a sharp pain in his face and his head was spinning, but then a sharp pain shot through his leg.

Yotsuba Mayuri stomped on his knee, and a cracking sound of bones was heard, followed by Ouka's painful scream.

"Hmm, your suggestion is good. I'll break one of your legs as punishment."

Yotsuba Mahiro's smile remained unchanged, still as amiable as ever, but the force with which he stepped was no less, probably enough to crush even the bluestone slabs.

If it were an ordinary person, they would probably be crippled by a single stomp, but for a weirdo like Europa, the force was just right.

However, Mahiro found Ouka a bit noisy, so he kicked him, hitting Ouka directly in the chin. With teeth and blood spurting out, Ouka immediately fainted.

"Do any of you have any other complaints about me?"

Yotsuba Mahiro raised his head, his smiling gaze sweeping over the many captains in front of him.

They immediately shook their heads like rattles, cold sweat pouring down their faces.

This kid looks young, but he's really ruthless; he managed to beat Europa to a pulp.

It was thanks to that idiot Euroca that they tested the waters; otherwise, they probably wouldn't have fared much better than Euroca.

"Is it really okay?"

Yotsuba Mahiro asked again.

"Don't let my appearance fool you, I'm actually a very democratic person. My greatest strength is persuading people with virtue and reason. If you have any opinions, you'd better raise them as soon as possible. If something like this happens again in the future, your fate will be much worse than this idiot's."

Upon hearing this, the team captains couldn't help but shudder.

Immediately someone shouted:

"loyalty!"

"We will always be loyal to the Vice Minister!"

Once there is a leader, others will naturally follow.

The room was instantly filled with the captains' hoarse, desperate oaths.

This move surprised and impressed the Minister of the Guard.

He knew very well just how unruly his men were, not to mention that their positions had been suddenly taken away.

The cleanest and most efficient way is to beat them into submission.

However, this method seemed familiar to him.

It was as if he saw Esdeath, that sadistic woman. Although he knew that Yotsuba Mahiro had trained with Esdeath for a period of time and was said to have gained Esdeath's favor.

But could it be that he is favored because of his sadistic personality?

Nevertheless, the minister nodded in satisfaction.

"Very good, now no one questions my ability to pick people, right?"

"Minister, you have a discerning eye. With your leadership, I believe His Majesty will look at our Imperial Capital Garrison in a new light."

"Yes, remember to cooperate obediently with the new vice minister, Yotsuba Mahiro. I'll come over occasionally to check on the work. If anything goes wrong, I won't let you off the hook."

He instructed the captains to introduce the main situation of the security team to Yotsuba Mahiro, while he himself slacked off and left the duty room.

With the deputy minister sharing the workload, his job will indeed become much easier.

However, it was fortunate that I hadn't selected a deputy minister in advance, otherwise I would have missed such a good prospect.

Worth cultivating.

After listening to their brief introduction, Makoto understood the main situation of the current Imperial Capital Garrison, which was largely in line with his expectations.
