I’ll Use This Opportunity To Finish The Introductions
Neito got promoted to Core Level 3, and accepted his assignment to the special region.
Raz took a deep breath and Izumi gave a sense of relief.
[Is that so…? Do your best not to get killed kid. Izumi, I’m done here. I’ll be on my way.]
[Yes… sorry for the bother]
In Raz’s position, a promotion to be a squad leader wasn’t such a big thing. He stood up and quickly left the room.
[Komori, could you wait here a bit? I’ll call your subordinates. I’ll use this opportunity to finish the introductions.]
Izumi was well prepared for the situation. Neito felt jitter-ish from the announcement. He commanded people from the G.A Department, but it was because he was the on site officer. The situation just demanded him to take command. It was a first of him to have real subordinates under him. Anice was just Anice, He couldn’t call her a subordinate. Anice was “special”.
Subordinates huh? I wonder who they’ll be… It is both something to worry about and to look forward to.
There was a knock the the Department Chief’s room.
After waiting for Izumi’s response, the first person came in.
[… …! You’re –]
[It has been a long time.]
Neito remembered the one who entered, in other words, the one who would become Neito subordinate.
He had a long glossy black hair, with eyes of an eagle looking its prey. He was tall, and was about 30 years of age. He was with him in the Harrison offensive.
[… … Tsurugi-san?]
[Tsurugi…? I guess that’s good enough.]
He answered in a calm and low voice.
This guy? My subordinate? No, No No. That’s clearly off the roof. Having a subordinate that’s more powerful than the leader is clearly ridiculous.
[Izumi-san… Umm… What does this mea—]
Neito turned to ask Izumi but it was Tsurugi who gave an answer to his question.
[I volunteered to be in this squad. I decided that you are worthy enough to be my superior.]
What the hell is this guy? He’s speaking like a sengoku samurai… If I remember right, He’s just a chivalrous guy…
[Komori, I don’t know the full details, but why not? He’s the man of honor in the Italian mafia, and he came here in order to assist Metallica with his skills, but for some reason, he ended up in the G.A Department]
Izumi explained Tsurugi’s situation. Neito consented.
So that’s why… And I thought it was weird having such a strong guy in the bottom ranks of the G.A Department. He’s part of the Head-Hunting group recruited for Metallica huh? How the hell did this guy end up in the G.A Department? And why the hell is He now under me?
[Umm… Tsurugi-san, Why me?]
Tsurugi gave off a chuckle. He was a well built, rough man.
[I fell in love with you… your “Evil” to be precise… I’ll follow you anywhere… Boss]
[But being assigned to the special region would prove to be troublesome for you…]
[There’s nothing to worry about if I stick to you.]
[Yeah… I guess that’ll do]
[Understood Boss.]
Neito had nothing else to say on the matter. Thinking about it carefully, there’s nothing wrong with Tsurugi accompanying him.
He knew Tsurugi from the Harrison offensive; his battle capabilities, his self control, his decisiveness and his strange loyalty towards him.
There was no disadvantage having him. He pledged his blade to Neito, and if that’s the case, He’ll use him to his max potential.
After his conversation with Tsurugi, a feint knock came at the door. The door opened and a man came in.
[Come In. Komori, I’ll introduce you to the second member of your squad.]
[G’morning]
The guy who entered had a light and bright voice.
It’s not only the voice… His whole vibe is very light and cheerful.
The guy that came in had a light brown hair, wore a slim suit and had a gaudy face. He’s young apparently.
[Oh, This guy will be my superior?]
[He is Niina Kazuma-kun]
[Nice to meet you, I’m assigned to your squad. It I’ll be officially entering this company this April. I don’t have any battle experience, but I graduated college for your information]
Entering the company next year? He must be a new guy.
Neito was just one term ahead of him.
[Y-Yeah…. Nice to meet you too.]
[Eh? That guy is my superior? But this guy looks stronger than him? You serious?]
The man called Niina Kazuma regarded Tsurugi as the squad leader.
That’s entirely acceptable.
[I’ll just say that I’m the squad leader.]
[Whoa… Is this for real? You’re really my life model. Is it true that you defeated Beetle? How much of the story is true Senpai?]
[Well… All of it is true]
[That’s one awesome feat there…]
The air became quiet and still for a moment, just like the time General Raz spoke to Neito a few moment ago.
For once, Neito wasn’t overcome by his feelings.
That battle really does mean a lot to him.
Izumi whispered to Neito in a low voice.
[… It doesn’t look like it, but Niina-kun aced the quiz on the entrance exam… And well, the result would be… You would have to babysit him I guess…]
Neito had no reason to complain on the task given.
[No problem chief. Niina, it must be hard on you to be assigned to the special region off the bat]
[Well, I really don’t want to, but I have no choice.]
Wouldn’t Tsurugi be mad about him and his style?
Neito turned to Tsurugi. He didn’t give a damn. Looking at it closely, Tsurugi only looked at Niina, as if he was trying to protect Neito from any danger.
[Chief Izumi. Is this all of my squad members?]
[Yeah… I had the intention of leaving it so, but…]
As Izumi finished his words, The door opened the same time as they heard a knock from it.
[Naaate! You got promoted! Congratulations!]
A girl came in with a blonde hair. She was one of the world’s elite; with a deadly father who would kill you instantly the moment he finds out you hurt his daughter. She was one of the Untouchables.
[Y-Yeah… Thanks.]
[Good Job! Anice knew that you would become great in the nick of time! It’s okay! I’ll always be with you, even if you change jobs… You’ll never be lonely!]
Anice held Neito’s hand tightly and gave of a big smile.
[Hmm? Are you coming too?]
[Yeah! Are you happy?]
Neito looked at Izumi. He signaled that it wasn’t his idea, and slid his fingers sideways on his throat.
He couldn’t refuse him huh…? The middle management section must be rough for him…
Neito looked at Tsurugi. Tsurugi NE’d and gave a sense of laughter.
/*NE = Nose exhale – The thing you actually do when you find something funny on the internet; blowing out a small amount of air through the nasal passage.*/
Niina was saying something like [Whoa, she’s really cute… You’re really amazing Senpai]
[C’Est la vie] /*Neito doesn’t speak French */
With that, Neito with his 3 subordinates were officially assigned to the special region.
At the end of the day, Neito invited his new subordinates out for a drink. Well, it was something like “deepening our friendship” type of celebration. The 3 of the replied.
[We’ll be in your care from now on]
[Well, I have some private work to do so I’ll be going home first…]
[What? You’re all going? That’s not fair… Who’s paying?]

Hey guys, sorry for no updates on the past week. It’s been a “busy” week. I think I’ll slow down back to 1 chapter a week for THIS month.
I’ll post some additional content whenever possible. Cheers.
And now… for the thing that always ends the chapter…
