'He's coming late on purpose, isn't he?'

"This is crazy. I'm so busy, but he wants to take his time? Ugh..."

When I turned my head slowly, I saw a mountain pile of documents and fatigue recovery pills.

I was already sighing without realizing it. No matter how many competent administrative agents there were, many issues had to be dealt with by maintaining security, so his absence was a big deal.

The problem was sending catalysts and materials to District 5, and there were a few issues to deal with as they hid the distribution process to maintain security.

That was not all. It seemed that the work had doubled without adding a single manager to handle the work that Lee Kiyoung had previously been in charge of.

No, to be exact, it seemed to have increased by 2.5 times.

'I'll have to stay up all night again.'

"Damn it, just wait and see. I will be rewarded. I better be rewarded no matter what."

I wanted to write down a list of what to ask for, but I didn't even have time for that at that moment.

I heard it would take some time, but it was taking longer than I thought.

It was then that the Goddess's Mirror suddenly rang.

[Unnie, I think you should come here for a while? As soon as possible. It's urgent.]

"What is it, Yeon-soo?"

[It's really urgent. I sent you the coordinates. I think you'd better come by using a griffon. Hurry, don't let anyone know. I'm not kidding. You'll probably appreciate it if you come.]

[What is it?]

[I think you should come and see for yourself.]

Ha Yeon-soo was a younger associate who had been very close to me since I worked in the Black Swan.

Lately, the message itself didn't feel strange because we were still communicating every day. However, apart from that, it began to feel increasingly uncomfortable.

That was what caused the unusual emergency network to ring.

The fact that the network of contacts rang could mean nothing else but that an incident broke out. Yet another matter happened in my busy schedule.

The coordinates on the mirror were in the woods not far from Lindel.

[You have to come right now. It's really urgent.]

"I got it. I got it. Damn."

[We can meet at Lindel.]

[No, I can't get to Lindel. It's a bit awkward to tell you by message too.]

"..."

'Is she trying to do something to me?'

Doubts began to rise. I thought she was already my subordinate, but wouldn't human relationships easily collapse in the face of small profits?

'No, she's not that stupid.'

I thought a little bit about it, but the possibility itself was completely ruled out. Yeon-soo knew the ripple effect that would cause. She couldn't do such a reckless thing.

I was certain she'd take more escorts than usual because she had a lot of doubts...

'I trust you, Yeon-soo. We won't end here, right?'

I had no choice but to move immediately. As I opened the door, I saw familiar faces.

"Are you going out, Unnie?"
