Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 1138 Demonic power is the grave of the greedy and ambitious
"Ms. Busujima Saeko, the samurai sword in your hand and the spiritual power flowing through your body are both valuable assets in the fight against these demons and monsters. The lives of millions of people in Tokyo depend on your thoughts at this moment. We, as representatives of the National Occult Countermeasures Agency, are willing to do whatever it takes to gain your help."

Having said this, he paused and his eyes became unusually firm.

"The position of Director of the Supernatural Countermeasures Department is vacant, and we can even consider the newly created position of Supernatural Minister in the cabinet. As long as you are willing, the entire island country will be at your disposal to resist this disaster together."

Busujima Saeko smiled gently, with a hint of amusement and indifference in her smile, as if she had already seen through everything.

"Really? It seems that I am really important enough to make you guys make such a fuss."

Although she looked soft and gentle, her deep eyes sparkled with wisdom, revealing that she was not an ordinary woman.

Busujima Saeko knew very well that although the people who came to recruit her were sincere in their words, the motives behind them were not simple.

What they valued was not only the samurai sword in her hand and the spiritual power in her body, but also her key position that could influence the situation.

The power and possibilities she represents.

However, more importantly, Busujima Saeko herself knew very well that she did not have the authority to make decisions.

At this moment, she is merely the maid of Luther, the mysterious and powerful being.

In this identity, all her actions must follow the wishes of her master. It is impossible for a maid to make decisions on behalf of her master in any era and any cultural background.

“This is not something I can decide.”

Busujima Saeko's tone was calm and firm. She bowed slightly and continued in an elegant yet distant manner, "Looking for my master, I am just a maid and have no right to make any decisions for him. Also, I want to advise you that demon power is not a good power. Although it is powerful, it is also full of unknowns and dangers. Be careful of those who get demon power, they will eventually become monsters that they don't even recognize."

After saying this, Busujima Saeko turned and left.

The special envoys did not dare to stop them. After all, the person standing behind Busujima Saeko was that person, and they could not afford to offend him.

"The recruitment failed. Busujima Saeko rejected the conditions we proposed."

Taro Yamamoto reported in a low voice into the tiny microphone on his chest, even though he knew that every word he said would be transmitted to the ears of those bigwigs through the live broadcast equipment on site.

In the monitoring room far away, a group of bigwigs in suits with serious expressions were staring at the screen. There was both disappointment and greed in their eyes.

One of the elders spoke slowly, "God's maids? It seems that their status is not as unattainable as we imagined. However, this is not your fault, Yamamoto."

There was some comfort in the words of this great man, but more of it was admiration for Busujima Saeko's extraordinary calmness and rationality.

At this moment, they finally realized that this young girl was no ordinary person.

She was able to remain rational and calm in the face of such a huge temptation. This level of determination and wisdom is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

"But what does she mean by demonic power?"

The bigwigs began to discuss.

"If we take the literal meaning of demonic power, does it mean the power of demons and monsters?" "Yes, we used scientific methods and conducted in-depth research on the remains of demons and monsters to extract the kind of potion that can give humans supernatural powers."

"Could it be that the supernatural potion we made using the corpses of demons and monsters as ingredients will turn people into monsters?"

"How is this possible? We have conducted countless experiments and verifications, and that medicine is safe!"

A big shot who had been injected with the drug shouted unwillingly, as if trying to convince himself and prove something to everyone present, "We used the most advanced equipment and the most rigorous data analysis. How could such a mistake occur?"

After a group of big shots realized this, they all looked unhappy. You know, they have a lot of supernatural power potions that they gave to their trusted subordinates or even for their own use.

Thinking of this, the faces of these bigwigs turned ugly.

They all knew that after being injected with the drug, the body's functions would reach the limits of the human body, and the person could even remain young and live to be over 180 years old.

This is undoubtedly a huge temptation for them.

However, at this moment, they were told that this so-called "supernatural power" was actually "demon power" that would turn people into monsters?
"Could it be that he wants to deceive us?"

A big shot who was injected with drugs said unwillingly.

He couldn't accept that after all he had done in pursuit of power, he might end up becoming a monster.

"It's hard to say, but she probably has no reason to lie."

The big shots around him subconsciously moved a distance away from him, fearing that he would suddenly turn into a monster and eat them.

"It's foolish to talk about toxicity without considering the dosage. What are you afraid of? I have so little demonic power in my body, how could I turn into a monster? Look at me, I'm still fine now, right?"

The big shot immediately started cursing.

That being said, who knows whether the supernatural world is based on this kind of science?
What if the so-called demonic power would increase over time?
Luther was also setting a trap, because he knew that most of the tycoons and bigwigs would not be able to resist the temptation of supernatural forces, and after they were injected with this potion containing magical powers, the end result was that they would all turn into monsters without exception.

Of course, it doesn't mean that those with powerful demons are doomed. Luther is still very kind. As long as the person who is injected can maintain a sense of justice and do just things, then he can maintain his human form.

But this makes the difficulty much higher than for those with psychic powers, as they don't have such shackles.

Busujima Saeko did not hide what happened today and told Luther everything.

Kasumigaoka Utaha and Hiratsuka Shizuka were both very surprised after listening to the lecture. The director of the Supernatural Countermeasures Agency is even the newly established Supernatural Minister in the cabinet?

Such a position is actually given to them. One can imagine what their current status is.

But because of this, they are more aware of what they should do in their position.

You know, the parents and relatives of Shizuka Hiratsuka and Utaha Kasumigaoka came over, and the two had to meet them.
