Zongman: A journey through time starting from the Supreme

Chapter 34: The Demon of Domination

The office building where the Public Security Department's Magic and Special Section is located is a bit old, but it is not large but has everything it needs, enough to meet the needs of the entire department.

Ever since demons appeared in this world, public security departments in various countries have become a top priority against demons, and they have great authority in various domestic departments.

After all, this involves the life and death of mankind.

Since the birth of demons, humans have used scientifically researched thermal weapons to fight against them, until they discovered that using the power of demons to fight demons was a better way than using thermal weapons.

Since then, demon hunters have stepped onto the stage of history and become the main force in exterminating demons.

Machima came to the office to work as usual.

She drives her own car and always has a humble, polite and gentle smile on her face.

Given Machima's position and status in the public security department, she should receive higher preferential treatment, such as her own car, a dedicated secretary, etc.

But Machima rejected all of this. Instead, she used all of this money on the department's internal welfare, showing her approachability and integrity.

Therefore, in the entire anti-demon special department, in the eyes of many new demon hunters, Miss Makima is as dazzling as the sun in the sky, making people can only watch and admire her.

Machima was wearing a women's white shirt 28, a simple suit trousers, and her orange-pink hair was casually draped.

Her tall and charming figure appeared in the department's office building and immediately received everyone's response.

"Ms. Machima!"

"Morning, Miss Machima!"

"..."

No matter whether it was the receptionist at the front desk or the cleaning staff, everyone bowed to her respectfully and greeted this great figure who was admired by both men and women.

Machima was still approachable and smiled and nodded to everyone who greeted her.

All those who greeted Makima, regardless of gender, had blushing cheeks, and felt even more embarrassed when they looked into her strange eyes.

"Ms. Makima is so handsome!"

"Yes, Miss Machima is not only handsome and cool, but also a very kind person. She helped my family not long ago."

"..."

After Machima walked upstairs and entered her office, the staff members started to chatter excitedly.

In the eyes of these people, Miss Makima is a righteous person. She hates gangsters and criminals very much and spares no effort to fight them.

She is strict and fair to her subordinates, yet easy-going and approachable. She will help anyone who encounters difficulties. She is like a goddess who can only be admired from afar.

To many people, it is an honor to be able to work with Miss Makima and even be led by her.

With a faint smile on her face, Makima walked into her office.

She hung the suit jacket draped over her slender arm on the clothes rack at the door.

The gentle smile on her face remained unchanged, but deep within that smile, which no one could detect, there was a frightening indifference.

All the people in this office building are just her dogs, and they are so boring that she doesn't even have to think about them anymore.

If she wanted, she could dominate everyone here at any time and make them slaves who would not reject her and would not hesitate to sacrifice their lives for her.

But there is no need, because with her charm, she doesn't even need to show her ability to dominate, everyone here will wag their tails and beg for mercy to her, turning into a pitiful lapdog.

As usual, after arriving at the office, Machima called together all the staff members who were at the headquarters today.

Not those who do logistical support, but the demon hunters who need to go to the front line.

Soon, demon hunters, both men and women, came to the large office and greeted Makima.

There are only about thirty frontline fighters in the entire Fourth Para-Demon Special Division, of course not counting the other demons who obey Makima's orders and are dominated by her.

After all, this is a place for human demon hunters. If we bring all those demons here, problems are likely to arise.

"Ms. Machima, this is yesterday's work report."

One by one, the demon hunters submitted yesterday's work report and began the routine reporting.

"Well, thank you for your hard work, everyone."

Makima sat at the top, still with a warm smile on her face, but compared to her casual attitude in daily life, she was now more serious about her work.

She took the report and listened to each staff member's performance report, occasionally pointing out some problems, and then issued today's orders.

Although Makima appears to be only in her early twenties, and even looks young among this group of demon hunters, she handles her job with ease and no mistakes can be found.

"Another person has died."

Makima let out a sigh that was unclear whether it was real or fake, and this sigh made the entire office quiet.

Every demon hunter has a different expression, some are sad, some are indifferent, and some are trembling in fear.

Demon Hunter is a profession with a very high sacrifice rate, especially the official Demon Hunter, the probability of sacrifice is beyond imagination.

There are very few demon hunters over the age of thirty, and most of them who reach that age have either died or changed jobs.

Some also became folk demon hunters.

There are only a little over a thousand civilian demon hunters in the entire island nation. Since they accept private commissions, they can refuse those that are difficult.

But it’s different for official demon hunters. They cannot refuse the missions posted above, and they have to face the demon no matter how scary it is.

It can be said that the island country, or even all the countries in the world, are protected by these official demon hunters.

Perhaps realizing that her words had made the atmosphere somewhat awkward, Makima quickly said:

"…The compensation for Sato's family will be reported in accordance with regulations and delivered as soon as it passes review."

"I remember that she has a younger sister who is still in school and her mother is not in good health. Although the pension is not much, it is enough to support her sister to finish her studies and improve the family's life."

The staff member who was handling the debris on the side said quickly: "...Okay, Miss Machima!"

And following Makima's orders, these demon hunters looked at her with even more admiration.

Demon Hunter is a profession with a very high sacrifice rate. Those with more than three years of experience are considered veterans, and those with more than five years of experience are rare.

Therefore, no matter which department the Anti-Magic Special Department is in, the speed of replacement of members is extremely fast.

But even so, Miss Machima will remember everyone who has worked here, get to know them, and know their situations like the back of her hand.

I'm afraid Miss Makima is more painful than anyone else present because she remembers every victim.

With this kind of mentality, everyone developed a greater dependence and admiration for Makima.

Feeling that dependence and admiration, the dominating demon sneered in his heart.

Ah, they are really a bunch of sentimental dogs who wag their tails and beg for mercy as soon as they are given a little benefit.

She likes obedient dogs, though!

"By the way, a new inspector general has arrived in our department today. I hope everyone can cooperate with his work."

Makima said as if she suddenly remembered something.

But her words caused dissatisfaction in the office.

"Why do we still need an ombudsman in our department?"

"Is this to share Miss Makima's power?"

"Heh, do those people above distrust Miss Makima, or do they distrust us?"

"..."

The demon hunters who were fighting on the front lines were all dissatisfied.

Makima, however, smiled gently and said, "...After all, our department is quite special, so it is understandable that the higher-ups are worried about sending an inspector."

“…I hope everyone will not bring bad atmosphere into work.”

After hearing what Makima said, many demon hunters had no choice but to give up their wild thoughts and just sighed in their hearts that Miss Makima was so magnanimous.

Just then, there was a knock on the office door, and a gentle male voice said, "...Excuse me, I'm the Inspector General who is here to take office today."

"...Can I come in now?"

Following this voice, many eyes turned towards the door.

Chapter 35 Miss Makima

"Please come in!"

Makima's gentle voice was heard, and then the door of the room was opened under the curious, hostile, or calm gazes of many demon hunters in the office.

Then, a tall man walked in from outside.

He was wearing a slim-fitting suit, had a gentle smile on his face, handsome features, and a pair of glasses on his nose.

That kind of typical gentle yet strict temperament similar to Makima easily makes people think of his similar identity.

A corporate executive or a powerful government official.

Most demon hunters didn't look very happy.

No matter which work department, no one likes this kind of leader who suddenly comes out of nowhere, because no one knows what the new leader’s personality is like.

Especially since Demon Hunter is a profession that fights on the front line and may die at any time, they dislike this kind of people even more.

Of course, there are also some expressionless demon hunters. These are veterans who have been fighting demons for a long time.

In the fight with those disgusting, weird and terrifying demons, human thinking can be easily polluted, revealing a numb expression like a puppet.

"Hello, Mr. Saigo."

"…Are you the inspector sent by the Security Committee? I'm Makima, and I'm sure you know me."

Makima smiled faintly, she stood up from behind her desk and walked over.

This stern yet gentle woman came up to Saigo with her hands behind her back.

Makima was very tall, even over 1.7 meters with shoes on, but even so, she was still a head shorter than Saigo.

She stretched out her right hand, and her slender white hand fell in front of Xixiang, making a handshake gesture.

Xixiang looked at the beautiful woman in front of him, whose temperament was gentle and stern but with a hint of strange charm, and also stretched out his hand and said:

"…Hello, Ms. Makima! My sudden visit to Section 4 may cause you some inconvenience, but this is also the committee's order, and there is nothing I can do about it."

Saigo said this and held Makima's hand.

Her hands were white, tender and smooth, feeling like soft jelly, slightly cool and slightly warm.

Looking at the man in front of her who seemed to have come here reluctantly because of the committee's request, Makima's slender brows frowned slightly.

There is an unknown demonic aura about this man.

I have never seen such a demonic aura before.

And I can sense that the aura of this demon is very strong.

Oh, so he was sent by the Prime Minister. Did he sign a contract with some unknown powerful demon? Could it be those root demons in hell that have never appeared in the world?

Thinking of this, Makima's heart shuddered, as she had memories of being in hell.

The life of a demon is a progression in reincarnation.

They die in Hell, are reborn in the living world, and after dying in the living world they are reborn again in Hell.

Demons cannot commit suicide. This is the biggest rule of demon survival.

Therefore, although many demons in hell want to come to the world and enjoy the splendor here.

However, the demons in hell cannot come to the human world by committing suicide, but can only be killed by other demons in hell.

Just like the demon she controls, she is actually not very capable in frontal combat, so she was able to come to the world only after being killed by a "hero".

It is precisely because demons must follow such laws of survival that some concepts are too heavy, and demons close to the origin of hell are too powerful, and thus have never been killed.

Although there are not many demons like that, they do exist.

Therefore, the aura that Saigo deliberately revealed to alert the dominant demons easily made Makima think of those demons in the depths of hell who had never died.

'Could it be that this man had been to hell for some reason and had signed a contract with the demons in the deepest part of hell?'

"...Well, it is possible. Those demons are too powerful to be killed, so they naturally cannot come to the human world, but they are also eager to come here."
