Comprehensive: Beginning with the Killer Queen

Chapter 421 Flanda, Come Be My Dog
Looking at Roland looking down at her, Flanda was stunned.

Pure oxygen.

As an excellent student who can make bombs by herself, Franda is certainly familiar with this term.

Oxygen, a substance that humans rely on for survival, will become a deadly poison when the concentration exceeds 40%.

After inhaling large amounts of pure oxygen, the initial symptoms are numbness of the body and even loss of the ability to stand.

As Roland said, he gave a fairly proportionate punishment.

His plan was to suffocate the other person, and in return, he would fill the room with pure oxygen.

"Do not……"

Flanda wanted to wail, but suddenly closed her mouth and began to hold her breath.

But this thirst-quenching behavior of drinking poison could not help her at all.

Although she still had some miniature bombs in her hands, in a room filled with a large amount of pure oxygen, a slight fire would turn her into a pile of debris.

The girl stretched out her hands, grabbed the ground and crawled forward, but in this enclosed space created by her own hands, for her now, the distance of dozens of meters seemed like an insurmountable chasm.

There was no time to think about the irony of having become an accomplice in her own murder. Blood was flowing out of her eyes due to the rupture of capillaries, but before she completely lost her eyesight, Flanders turned to the only person in the room who had the ability to save her.

"Please, save me, I don't want to die here..."

"Are you sure? When I punish you, I will still treat you as an equal enemy, so I made a promise."

Looking at Flanda crawling towards him, Roland chuckled, squatted down, and stroked the girl's head.

"But if you beg for my help here, you will lose this identity and become mine completely. Is that okay?"

"It's ok!"

Thinking of her sister who was still waiting for her return at home, Franda completely broke down.

"I still have a younger sister, she's still waiting for me at home, I can't just die here!"

"younger sister?"

Roland blinked and took out his phone to check.

"Fremea Severon, right? I saw in the information that you didn't have much contact with her. I didn't expect you thought so highly of her."

While waiting for ITEM to fall into his trap, Roland also took a quick look at their information.

But compared to Kinuhata Shuai, who was the research target and had a simple experience, or Maiino Shenli, who had traces to follow, Frenda's information was much more mysterious.

It’s not that her whereabouts are untraceable, on the contrary, it’s because Flanda’s interpersonal relationships are too complicated.

She has thousands of acquaintances alone, and the level of contact she has with her only relative, her younger sister, is probably limited to this level. It is simply incomprehensible why she would join the Anbu.

"That's right. After all, the child is only eight years old. If she loses her support in this city, it will indeed make people worry about her future."

Roland sneered and looked at Flanda thoughtfully.

"In that case, Flanda, you are still a good sister. For this reason, if you unfortunately die here, I will reluctantly help you comfort the child."

"No, I don't want to die here!"

The pale-faced girl clutched Roland's legs tightly, crying and shouting.

After Roland easily opened the box of Fremea, who was her weak spot, the last line of defense in Flanda's heart was broken.

"Whatever you want me to do, whether it's using this body to serve you or anything else, as long as it keeps me alive, it's up to you!"

"Even if the price of survival is for you to betray ITEM?"

"Even if it means betraying ITEM!"

"Even if I ask you to kill Mai Ye Shen Li?"

This statement made Flanda's crying stop for a moment.

It can be said that considering the things she has blown up and the lives she has taken, there is no reason to justify the fact that Frenda is an 'evil' girl.

But even someone like Franda has things that she cherishes.

The existence of Mai Ye Shen Li is one of them.

Although she was often scolded and even beaten by the other party, she truly regarded Mai Ye Shenli as her idol.

In daily life, it is common to act cute and coquettishly in front of others or ask for compliments.

Logically speaking, there is no need to hesitate about this choice.

Compared with his own life and his sister's future, this kind of cherishment is nothing.

But that is the best choice under rational conditions.

Even if you betray your companions and confidential information, you will still beg for mercy with all your might. This is completely different from having feelings for your companions.

Making such a decision means that she will completely give up her dignity and become Roland's true property.

Under the silent urging of the increasingly dim vision, Flanda's eyes gradually became desperate.

"Even if...even if I have to kill Mugino, I'm going to live!"

“What a delightful statement.”

Roland's expression became dangerous, and the smile on his face deepened.

He lowered his head and looked at Franda, who had been blinded by the large amount of pure oxygen she inhaled but still helplessly stretched out her hand to him. He leaned down and whispered in her ear.

"In that case, as a reward for your eternal service to me, let me give you eternal peace of mind."

Then, Roland, in a gentle and kind tone, softly delivered the final verdict.

"——Frenda, come and be my dog."

----

"Takitsubo..."

Kinuhata Suai opened her hazy eyes and, with the help of Takitsubo Riko's outstretched hand, she managed to stand up.

During this process, she could clearly hear the 'crackling' sound of her bones cracking.

Even if it would further aggravate his injuries, it was better than just lying on the ground.

"Where's that guy?"

"I went after Flanda who ran away out of fear."

"Is it……"

The girl, who had long known Flanda's character, nodded without being surprised and silently mourned for her.
Kinuhata looked around and soon fixed her sight on Maizono Shenli, who was still twitching but whose voice was getting weaker and weaker.

"What should we do next? Run away before that guy comes back?"

Kinuhata's favorite was in a dilemma.

Although Takitsubo Rikou's ability does not have the conventional combat power, but unlike her lazy appearance, the girl's physical fitness is quite excellent, and even dragging herself will not affect her movements.

But the question now is not whether to run or not, but... can you run away?
In the face of Roland's strange ability, even if he called for support, it was unclear how much help it would have.

Moreover, the other party seemed to be an existence outside the unified council's data. Once exposed, in order to capture Roland who could easily defeat the fourth place, ITEM might be directly turned into a sacrifice to delay time by the upper echelons.

The dilemma they faced was whether to take the immobile Mai Ye Shen Li with them.

As if she could see Kinuhata's distress, Takitsubo Rikou grabbed the corner of her clothes with her lower hand and pulled it hard.

"What's wrong, Takitsubo?"

"Let's... surrender."

Takitsubo Riko, with a tired and pale face, stared closely at Kinuhata Saiai, who was a head shorter than her.

His eyes were as calm as the surface of an ancient well, without any hint of joking.

"what?"

Although everyone knew that Takitsubo Rikou was always drowsy, at the critical moment, her decisiveness even exceeded her companions' expectations.

But...isn't this too unexpected?

This is no longer a question of lack of motivation, but a clear betrayal of the Anbu.

Under Kinuhata Shuai's completely confused gaze, Takitsubo Rikou spoke softly after her breathing had calmed down a little.

"After I woke up just now, I found that I could hardly sense the AIM force field."

"But after using the body crystal again, I confirmed that my ability has not failed." "It's just that the force field I felt before was too huge and blocked my perception."

Although Takitsubo Rikou's words were light, it did not prevent Kinuhata from understanding this horrific fact.

As Roland's AIM stance spread, it even exceeded the perception range of Takitsubo Rikou, who was a powerful person who could see the entire map within the Academy City.

Even though the area where his ability radiates would weaken as the range increased, it was still more than enough to cover their movement distance.

"So, when he said we were surrounded, it wasn't a metaphor, but a statement of fact?"

Juanqi Zuiai scratched her hair in annoyance and sighed deeply.

"This couldn't have been a trap for ITEM from the beginning. I don't see any chance of winning at all."

Takitsubo Rikou pursed her lips slightly and looked towards the passage next to her.

"Besides, even if he doesn't act personally, we can't escape. I can confirm that Roland is not in psychological control."

"Eh?"

Kinuhata's favorite realized it belatedly and widened her eyes, then looked over.

In the next moment, she knew the answer.

Why after helping her up, Takitsubo Rikou decided to give up the mission and resistance and surrender seriously.

"shit."

Kinuhata's favorite muttered in a low voice.

Because so many things happened, she completely forgot that the original enemy of the mission was not Roland, but another person with super powers.

"In the final analysis, this is just your own trouble."

Not far away, the girl with honey-colored hair slightly gathered her hair by her ears and revealed a sly smile.

"However, being able to cooperate like this really saves me a lot of trouble. Sit down."

Are you training a dog?

After kneeling on the ground in sync with Takitsubo Rikou, Kinuhata finally suppressed the urge to complain.

The situation is stronger than people, especially in front of someone who has already controlled you and can read your mind, you have to think carefully.

"Whoosh..."

Shokuhou Misaki walked over with brisk steps.

Although she was somewhat curious as to why the always arrogant Mai Ye Shen Li would become foaming at the mouth now, out of a girl's intuition, she gave up the idea of ​​reading minds.

Shokuhou Misaki was a little unwilling to accept her defeat in the battle with Mugino Shenli.

But playing the role of a princess protected by a hero is also one of her favorite romances.

So, after completing the duties of an accomplice and dealing with the aftermath of the spoils.

With an excited smile, Shokuhou raised her head somewhat proudly, looking at the shadow that was gradually lengthening in front of her, ready to receive Roland's praise.

Then, her expression froze.

Because, it wasn't just Roland who was walking over. There was also a blonde girl hanging in his arms like a koala.

But when it comes to shock, Junqi Zuijia, who was kneeling on the ground, was definitely not any less shocked than her.

Under the current circumstances, she didn't expect Franda to be able to escape unscathed, but as they were both prisoners, the difference in treatment was too great!

Did Flanda betray herself?
Being stared at with eyes full of complicated emotions, even Franda, who had already sold out her ownership from another perspective, felt a little embarrassed and uneasy.

Even though all her injuries had been healed by cell recombination, the painful lesson she had just learned was still fresh in her mind, causing the girl to shrink back and move towards Roland's arms.

"Um, Mr. Roland, this child is..."

Shokuhou Misaki asked Roland in a cautious voice through gritted teeth.

"Um……"

Roland's expression was a little subtle, but he decided to tell the truth.

"In terms of relationship, she can be considered my new dog."

"Eh?"

Shokuhou Misaki's eyes froze.

"Don't you believe it? Flanda, call out."

"Wang!"

"Eh eh eh eh eh?!"

The girl had already prepared herself mentally for the fact that Roland was a scumbag.

But seeing with her own eyes how Frenda had become what she is now, Shokuhou Misaki was still somewhat shocked.

Looking at the serious Roland, Shokuhou sighed helplessly.

After all, Roland had never concealed his true nature from the beginning. This shock was just the contrast caused by his heroic debut in the first place.

No punishment is excessive for an enemy that actively invades with murderous intent.

Moreover, even in terms of status, she had no right to say anything to Roland.

A close accomplice is just an accomplice.

However, with the subtle emotions arising in her heart, Miss Shokuhou still pouted slightly.

"Forget it... Now is not the time to discuss this. Next, are we going to interrogate them?"

Hearing this question, Takitsubo Rikou, who had been staring at Roland quietly, or rather, staring blankly at his pair of true red eyes, also raised her head slightly.

"no need to worry."

Although she seemed to be daydreaming, she did not forget to pay attention to everything around her.

"ITEM is just a tool for the ANBU. Now that he has been captured, leaking the client's information is nothing."

"Ah, this matter doesn't matter. I have already obtained the information about the person I entrusted to me. I will deal with him and his forces later."

Roland moved his body slightly, put down Flanda who was clinging to him, and looked at Takitsubo Riko quietly.

"Compared to this, I want to know, if I want to get ITEM legitimately, what do I need to do?"

Takitsubo Rikou was silent for a while, and she and Kinuhata Saiai looked at each other.

"The first condition is the recognition of a director or chairman,"

"The other option is to gain the obedience of the current leader of ITEM, or... to find a new leader."

Juanqi likes to speak word by word, and answered carefully.

Hearing this answer, Flanda, who was kneeling on the ground obediently and hugging Roland's legs, trembled subconsciously.

"That's too troublesome. Let's go with the first option. It will be easier for you to accept working with your acquaintances."

Roland said affirmatively.

"Don't you need to think about it again?"

Taking a look at Maizono Shenli who was lying on the ground not far away and his life or death was unknown, Shokuhou Misaki frowned slightly.

"Although Mai Ye Shen Li can't move now, her personality is too unstable and her abilities are too dangerous. If she loses control..."

"It doesn't matter. The training has reached the final stage anyway."

"I understand."

Shokuhou Misaki nodded slightly.

With the precedent of Flanda, she did not doubt Roland's methods in this regard.

"Do you need me to do anything?"

Hearing this question, Roland shrugged and said with a smile.

"One secret room will suffice."

"Secret room?"

"Yes, a secret room that no detector can find."
