DEM Tiangong City Branch.
On the top floor.
In a luxurious office.
"In the end, are they completely on the opposite side of us?"
His slender and sharp eyes stared at Irene, who was standing in front of him, and he seemed to ask casually.
However, under that smiling expression, what kind of true feelings were there?
Even Irene, who had been with Weiss for many years, couldn't guess.
"Yes!"
It was a straightforward answer.
Irene thought for a while and added.
"However, they just don't want us to capture them. If the elves are willing … "
"Willing?"
Weiss rubbed his eyebrows, and a distressed expression appeared on his face.
"This is not easy to handle."
Irene nodded in agreement.
The impression of the DEM company in the minds of the elves was really bad. In other words, the impression of all humans in the eyes of the elves was very bad.
However —
"Master Weiss, didn't we imprison an elf in Nilu Island?"
That was the second elf confirmed to be in the world.
It was also Irene who led her team to complete the capture.
Today, many of the weapons developed by DEM against elves were also developed through the data obtained from various experiments done on "Material A", which was the second elf.
"For the experiment of reversing elves, if it doesn't work, just use 'Material A'."
Weiss was silent for a while.
"Material A" was the only elf captured by their DEM company. For safety reasons, it was not placed in the branch in Tiangong City.
So when Eight-cloud Ink came to investigate that day, Weiss was not wrong when he told him that "there are no elves here."
Indeed, there were no elves in the Tiangong City branch.
"A naturally occurring reversed elf, such a sample is the most perfect. However, if we can't capture the elves, everything is empty talk. "
"As for 'Material A' …"
As Jean spoke, Wescott turned his chair and looked out of the window.
"How is the experiment?"
Irene quickly checked the small computer on her wrist for a while and then replied, "63% is completed."
Wescott narrowed his sharp eyes.
"Okay, that's it. Irene, inform Nilu Island to push the progress to 70% as soon as possible, and then fly 'Material A' to Japan. "
"Yes, Master Weiss!"
⑧
Time passed unknowingly.
In the blink of an eye, it was already July.
Chocolate and vanilla.
"Huh? Traveling? "
Ashina put down the plate in her hand, gently wiped the sugar residue from Aistel's mouth, and looked at Eight-cloud Ink standing in front of her.
"Yes, we've lived here for a few months. Let's go on a trip!"
Gently holding Ashina's hand, Eight-cloud Ink smiled.
"Traveling …"
Ashina's eyes were filled with anticipation.
On the other side, Kuang San came over.
"Are Mr. and Mrs. Boss going on a trip to Lovelove?"
Kurumi didn't leave after her one-month maid training ended. Instead, she chose to stay.
Ashina and Eight-cloud Ink didn't care about this.
This elf girl had probed Eight-cloud Ink several times, so the two of them understood why Kurumi wanted to stay here.
Time –
Kurumi was an elf of time. However, using the power of time would consume Kurumi's own "time", which was her lifespan.
This was why Kurumi would use her ability to steal other people's time – like storing ammunition, she would store time for a rainy day.
Human's time was always limited. Once she stole too much, the human would soon die.
But Eight-cloud Ink was different.
As a combination of a monster and Elven King, he was 16 years old this year. 16 years later, he would still be 16 years old. 16 years later, he would still be 16 years old …
Thinking about it, it's scary (laughing) …
He would always be 16 years old. He didn't lack time.
Using his worthless "time" to exchange for such an elf girl with a temperament to be a maid in the coffee shop was a good deal for Eight-cloud Ink.
Looking at the grinning Kurumi, Eight-cloud Ink asked, "What? Do you want to go too? "
"Ah, this …"
Kurumi stretched out a finger and gently touched her pink lips. She thought for a while.
"Okay!"
At this time –
Ring ring.
The wind chime at the door rang.
The person who pushed the door open was Mei Jiu, who was wearing the Dragon Gall Temple Women's Academy uniform.
After being attacked by the DEM magicians that day and being saved by Eight-cloud Ink and Ashina, Mei Jiu would come here from time to time.
Although she always felt awkward when facing Eight-cloud Ink, her relationship with Ashina and Kurumi became better.
In addition, she also tried to make a move on Aistel, wanting to pull the holy sword girl into her harem, but she was rejected.
"Oh? Mei Jiu is here? Don't you have class today? "
Eight-cloud Ink looked at Mei Jiu and smiled.
"The class has already ended. Besides, it doesn't matter if I don't go to class."
Mei Jiu wrinkled her cute nose and then glared at Eight-cloud Ink.
"Hey, Mink-chan, did you do something bad to me?"
"Huh? What do you mean? "
Not only Eight-cloud Ink, but even Ashina and Kurumi looked at her in confusion.
Astor was eating the candy cake in small bites, ignoring Mei Jiu who had just entered the school.
"This guy …"
Mei Jiu took out a photo. Without even looking at it, she threw it at Yakumo as if she was throwing a disgusting bug.
After receiving the photo, Eight-cloud Ink, Ashina, and Kurumi looked at it.
It was a very cute girl.
But –
"This girl … why does she look so familiar?"
"A girl?"
Mei Jiu sneered.
"If you don't have Mink-chan's talent, don't pretend to be a girl. That's a guy."
"A guy!?"
After Mei Jiu's reminder, Eight-cloud Ink looked at it again.
"… This is Itsuka Shido?"
"You finally found out?"
Mei Jiu crossed her arms in front of her chest, showing off her amazing bust.
The corner of Asuna's eyes twitched slightly.
"This guy called Itsuka Shido changed his name to Shiori Itsuka and tried to get close to me!"
At this point, Mei Jiu glared at Ba Yun Mo.
"If it wasn't for Mink-chan, that guy wouldn't have been able to tell me everything! It's definitely Mink-chan's fault, right? Do you hate me that much!? "
As she spoke, tears welled up in Mei Jiu's amethyst-like eyes.
"This is really a misunderstanding …"
In an instant, Yakumo figured out the ins and outs of the matter.
This must be Ratatoskr's plan.
As for the mastermind, Eight-cloud Ink couldn't think of a second person apart from that little fox Kotori.
But to have Shido pretend to be Shiori …
Once again, he lowered his head to look at the photo of Shiori Itsuka.
[Well, I remember that I threw the magical girl transformation potion that Eight-senpai gave me … maybe I can find it.]
Yep, Shiori Itsuka … right? It should be interesting, right?
"By the way, when I came in, I heard you guys talking about traveling? Are you guys going on a trip? "
"Yes!"
Ashina walked up and smiled as she held Mei Jiu's hand.
"Okay then!"
Mei Jiu pointed at Eight-cloud Ink.
"As compensation for letting that cockroach-like guy hurt me, I want to go on this trip as well!"
