The immortal black snake just wants to live simply

Mobius lowered his voice and leaned into Hemo's ear.

"You don't really think that I don't know about the fact that you violated work regulations and contacted Ifrit privately several times when Ifrit was in a low mood."

Homer took a step back.

Obviously the other party stood still, maintaining an expression that was half-smiling but not smiling.

But Helmer could still hear the whispers in his ears.

"I don't care if you violated work regulations. On the contrary, I thank you for allowing Ifrit to study energetically every day."

"...I don't understand why you value Ifrit so much. Is it because of Director Ceria?"

"Have the rumors spread to the Structural Department... Of course not, I can see that Ifrit has [qualifications] that ordinary people don't have."

Mobius looked at Ifrit who was chewing a pen and was stumped by a difficult problem.

"This question requires auxiliary lines..."

He ignored Hummer, went behind Ifrit, held her hand holding the pen, and drew a dotted line.

Helmer felt a little redundant for a while.

While Mobius explained patiently on the surface, he was thinking in his heart:

'Maybe I will have this [qualification] soon~'

……

How can I become Ifrit [an important person]?

Seria provides a sense of security and Hemer is treated with tenderness.

So, what do I do?

How to make her become one of [my] bodies?

Oh~ she is afraid of me.

The fire demon fragment in her body sensed something was wrong~

It's just a wreckage, but you want to escape?

There is no complete memory, only incomplete memories?

I thought about it.

I can use my fear to create an image of [majesty] [requiring obedience] [cold face and kind heart].

A figure similar to a strict father?

Looks like it would be fun.

……

'Mobius and Homer won't quarrel, right? '

After completing the mission, Ceria returned home and took a cold shower to think.

Ceria is aware of Mobius's recent behavior towards Ifrit.

Helmer was quite critical of this, and Seria knew it too.

But in fact, Seria supports Mobius.

She felt that Mobius did the right thing.

If Seria wasn't so busy with her own tasks, she would actually like to tutor Ifrit in her studies.

'Self-improvement is fundamental. '

Without Seria's diligence and studiousness when she was young, there would be no possibility of being the current director of the Rheinland Life Defense Department.

But Ceria also felt that she had to be relaxed and not tense up all the time, causing herself to lose energy.

'Mobius asked me to come over tomorrow and asked me to help with the task of Ifrit and bring some gifts to the child. "

……

"Why have you been letting your experimental subjects study so intensively lately?"

"We want a super soldier, not a beast that obeys instinct, right?"

"...I didn't think too carefully."

"Don't test me, my patience is limited."

"……OK."

Chapter 29 A day at the amusement park for a family of three and an unknown staff member

The next morning, Ifrit couldn't wait to get up and wait for Mobius' arrival.

Yesterday's homework has been completed very carefully, and the homework that was not done the day before yesterday has also been made up.

So today, it's time for Mobius to fulfill his promise.

"Ifrit~ My hard-working Ifrit~ To reward you, I specially brought Seria here~"

Sure enough, Ifrit heard the sound outside the room that made her skin crawl.

Sometimes Ifrit really can't figure out why Mobius occasionally likes to speak in such a strange tone.

The last time she imitated this tone, she was severely criticized by Helmer.

"Don't follow Mobius in this tone of voice, it's too rude."

……

As soon as Mobius entered the door, he saw Ifrit handing him his homework with both hands attentively.

He smiled and accepted it, but did not open the homework.

This made Ifrit feel that Mobius still trusted her.

In fact, Mobius used surveillance yesterday to see Ifrit spending a lot of time completing her homework.

The clarity of the Rhine life surveillance camera allows Mobius to clearly see every word written by Ifrit.

'Properly letting go can give children the illusion that they are trusted, which is conducive to establishing a better relationship. '

'Since Ifrit has completed her homework so carefully, there is no need for me to find fault with her. '

'After all, my purpose is just to make her [obey]. '

……

After Ifrit handed the homework to Mobius, she hugged Ceria directly next to Mobius.

"Ceria, Mobius promised me today that we can go out and play together."

Seria, who was a little overwhelmed by Ifrit's warm embrace, turned to look at Mobius who was watching the fun.

"Oh~ This is a little surprise~ You can enjoy the amusement park~ This was specially chosen by Evely, and she also asked Hemo to go too."

"I have no problem, but Ifrit..."

"It's okay~ I'm the person in charge of Ifrit now~"

Mobius made a casual phone call and called Homer over.

"Ifrit is going to trouble you today~"

Mobius sent them to an amusement park and asked them to get out of the car, but he still stayed in the driver's seat.

"Aren't you going down?"

Seeing that Helmer and Ifrit had already walked to the entrance of the amusement park to buy tickets, Ceria hesitated and asked Mobius specifically.

"I won't go down anymore~ If Ifrit [sees] me around, she will definitely have a hard time~"

Mobius nonchalantly tuned the car radio.

What is being played is a song by the famous idol Sora.

"...It's not good to leave you here alone."

"Are you caring about me? I'm so touched~ 嘤嘤嘤... put your fist down! Don't worry, I have my own way."

Finally, at the urging of Mobius, Ceria reunited with Helmer and Ifrit in the amusement park.

Mobius sat on his seat and gently adjusted his monocle.

……

'Strange, why is this amusement park so deserted? '

Helmer looked around a little uneasily.

It seems that there are only three of them among the tourists, and the rest are staff wearing doll headgear.

'Are the working conditions in this amusement park a bit too harsh? Even the staff have the same body shape. '

Homer asked the hooded front desk clerk why there were so few customers today.

"Don't you know? Someone bought you a day of business at the amusement park, and now the entire amusement park is serving you."

The staff responded in a robotic voice with an obvious voice changer.

'Dr. Mobius is too generous...and, is this amusement park so good at keeping the identities of its staff secret? '

Helmer still had some questions, but when he saw Ifrit running towards the roller coaster, he could only put aside his doubts for the time being and follow him.

"Ifrit, wait for me."

……

Seria is buying snacks for Ifrit and Helmer at a convenience store.

She hesitantly shouted to the staff wearing hoods:

"Mobius?"

"Oh~ You are indeed my partner who has been with me day and night for many years~ You recognized me easily~"

The staff took off their hoods, revealing green hair and the iconic monocle.

"...Is your cloning technology ready for use?"

Ceria asked.

She was certain that there was more than one Mobius in this amusement park.

The staff all gave her the same sense of familiarity.

"Yes~ You know, in order to give Ifrit a perfect childhood memory, I booked the entire playground~ Just to avoid unpleasant conflicts~ After all, both of them are infected .Forget it about Hemo, she is already a mature adult, but I don’t want Ifrit’s young heart to be hurt~”

Mobius handed three ice creams to Ceria and handed the money back.

"I spent a lot of money to book this amusement park. You guys have to have a good time and help me repay the money~"

Ceria looked at the iconic smile on Mobius's face.

'He's quite gentle. '

Mobius did not notice Ceria's inner activities.

In fact, He himself has never been to an amusement park.

Of course, He had memories of going to the amusement park, but he did not experience them personally.

Besides, why would Cosich go to an amusement park?

Those projects were of little interest to Him.

In order to avoid being detected by the Balrog fragments in Ifrit's body, he specially injected a very small amount of will into these clones.

My perception of the outside world has also dropped a lot.

Seria took the ice cream and said a little unnaturally:

"Ifrit doesn't seem to be too afraid of you wearing a hood... Come on, it won't be good to leave you alone to work."

"Oh~ This is not okay~ As a staff member, how can I neglect my duties~ Who doesn't know that my greatest advantage, Mobius, is that I work when I need to work and relax when I need to relax. You can rest assured~"

Mobius gave Ceria some more souvenirs, put on a hood, and pushed Ceria out of the convenience store.
