Kivotos Warlord Development Manual

"For example, a junior or younger sister who is very close to Rin-chan wants a gift for her birthday but is too embarrassed to tell you directly, so she simply makes a big fuss to attract your attention and make you take the initiative to ask her what she wants."

"Rin-chan should be able to understand this situation, right?"

Lin pushed his glasses silently and complained with a cold look in his eyes.

"If my sister showed such bad behavior of not wanting to communicate normally with others, shouldn't I just beat her up until she started talking properly..."

Chapter 104: Entertainment before the Main Show

"Come to think of it, Jiang Shang, who was described as an elder sister by the president, also did the same thing when dealing with those problem students, right?"

This answer, full of the authority of an elder sister, made the president shake his head in confusion.

"Don't be like this..."

"This is just a way to get attention. In fact, what Gehenna Academy is doing now is not much different from this kind of thing..."

"They probably just want more people to know that they have the ability to make a big fuss, so that everyone can respect their opinions and not underestimate their right to speak just because of the upcoming peace agreement like the Treaty of Eden."

"So Gehenna Academy doesn't really want to fight with other academies..."

"But President, if Senior Jiang Shang came to the Federal Student Union, she could do a better job with her abilities, right?"

"Then why would she refuse such an invitation that suits her so well?" Lin tilted her head in confusion.

"If I knew this, we wouldn't be scolded..."

"Maybe Egami-san has some unfinished business at Gehenna Academy. After all, she is a workaholic that even Liyin admires..."

At this point, the president saw that Lin looked confused, and a faint smile suddenly appeared on his lips.

"Rin-chan, there is one thing you must remember. Regulations and rules are the basic procedures to ensure the operation of the Federation, but they can never be used as a bond to maintain the Federation.

"Although the struggles between the various academies seem complicated, everyone is essentially no different from children in kindergarten."

"Gehenna is a straightforward child. She doesn't like Trinity who always puts on airs and dislikes her, so we have to be careful not to let them fight because of this conflict. Millennium is a good child who likes to learn, but we also have to worry about whether she will hurt herself and others because of her strong curiosity."

"There are also Hong Dong, Shan Hai Jing, Bai Gui Ye Xi, Abydos, etc. They are either lazy, playful, self-absorbed, or physically weak."

"Protecting these children so that they can live healthily and happily every day is the meaning of the existence of the Federal Student Union."

"Come to think of it, Egami-san is really good at this aspect!~"

"When she encountered the accidental injury of the Millennium Academy, she almost risked her own death to prevent the impending war between the two academies, and finally successfully prevented a century-long war that could have affected the entire Kivotos."

"But before shaking hands with Trinity Academy and making peace, he suddenly started jumping up and down and talking about how great he is and hoped that others would take him seriously."

"With this kind of sensible and spoiled appearance, don't you think she has turned Gehenna Academy into a very cute child?"

Seeing the president's eyes shining, Rin sighed helplessly.

My seniors' brain circuits seem to be getting more and more abnormal...

"No, now I just think this cute kid is really capable of beating up all the other kids in the class..."

"Forget it... What do you think we should do now..."

Seeing that his equally cute junior was in a state of giving up on thinking, the president raised his slender eyebrows slightly, leaned back in his chair and put on a leisurely smile.

"In fact, these situations are not that complicated. We just need to respond according to their ideas."

"Regarding the declaration of war by Gehenna Academy, let the General Affairs Office send a letter to inquire normally, and let everyone in the Federation pay attention to the reactions of other academies at this time. Such a good opportunity to observe is rare."

"But sometimes paying too much attention to children who are having tantrums can make things worse, so just let them rage for a while, and when Jiang Shang is ready to communicate properly, you can find out what they want."

"As for the exchange invitation from Gehenna Academy to SRT Special Academy..."

"They have already accepted many exchange students from other schools, so why not change it to an exchange student program where both sides can learn from each other?"

"With the power of the Federation Student Union there, both us and other schools will relax a little, and Jiang Shang will probably be able to feel the goodwill from the Federation."

"By the way, as for the Treaty of Eden, I remember that it should be about to enter the process of bilateral agreement, right?"

"Then the Federal Student Union should not intervene too much except to urge both parties to complete the agreement as soon as possible. We just need to keep an eye on them and make sure they don't encounter any new accidents. As for the specific content of the treaty, let them negotiate it themselves."

"After all, if the Federal Student Union gets too involved in this situation, it will cause resentment and vigilance from the two university campuses, which is not the result we want."

"But there is only one thing: we must make sure that the final agreement is a true peace treaty, not just some superficial work that is optional."

"Nagisa is fine, but that guy Makoto... forget it..."

"Anyway, the affairs of Gehenna Academy are all handled by Jiang Shang, so nothing will go wrong with her around."

"As for Jiang Shang's invitation to transfer..."

"Alas... the Federal Student Union really needs her abilities..."

"Perhaps we still need to get to know each other for a while, so let's put this matter aside for now..."

After seeing the president lying on the table with a troubled look on his face, Lin also put down the tablet in his hand and subconsciously broke into a relaxed smile on his face.

It must be said that every time she witnessed these complicated and headache-inducing things quickly become simple and clear in the hands of the president, she would realize that the gap between people is really too big...

Although everyone is exposed to the same things every day, he and his colleagues in the "General Office" are unable to do what the president does, to quickly find the core points of various problems from the perspective of the entire Kivotos and directly provide targeted solutions.

It seems that as long as the president is here, there is nothing that cannot be solved in the entire Kivotos...

However, the ones who received the most care were the students in each department of the "Federation Student Union". Although they had so many conflicts, it did not affect the flow of various affairs between them at all...

I heard that Senior Jiang Shang also performed similarly at Gehenna Academy, so those Gehenna students who almost lost her would have such great hostility towards the "Federation Student Union"...

If it were her, she would have been trembling in her heart just thinking about what might happen after losing her senior...

Thinking of this, Lin quickly shook his head, forcibly dispelling this horrible thought from his mind.

However, just as she bowed slightly and was about to return to the "General Affairs Office" to handle these matters according to the president's instructions, her eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of the funny photo of Xuefeng with a dark circle under one eye, and she subconsciously tilted her head slightly.

"By the way, President, why did Senior Jiang Shang take the photo with a dark circle under his eyes? Does it have any special meaning?"

"Ah... maybe she was in a hurry to get out and do something while she was halfway through putting on her makeup..."

"When Rin-chan is busy, doesn't she sometimes come to work wearing her socks from the day before?"

"Why would the seniors pay attention to this kind of thing!!!"

"It is also the seniors' responsibility to carefully observe the work pressure of the juniors!~"

……

at the same time.

Trinity Academy Autonomous Region, unknown area.

Arius Branch, ruins of the old sanctuary.

Amid the desolate ruins of the temple, a red-skinned woman in a white dress gently raised a folding fan and placed it against her pointed chin.

Above her bright red cheeks was a huge porous crown that looked like white bone. In each hole was a red eyeball glowing with a fierce light, and the densely packed eyes made people feel cold in their hearts.

At this moment, the eyeballs in the crowns were staring at the puppet opposite, who was wearing a gray-blue suit and looked no different from a normal adult male.

However, the part above the puppet's neck had two cracked wooden heads with strange symbols carved on them, as if they were conjoined twins, and every time the puppet moved, the whole body would squeak.

"Beatrice, I have prepared everything you need. When will my research subject be in place?"

The puppet in a suit asked the question slowly in an unknown way. While he was speaking, he gently placed the black suitcase in front of the red woman named Beatrice.

"Don't be impatient, Master, is this the improved aura-destroying bomb?"

"The only kill record is still jumping around like an annoying monkey outside. What gives you and Golconda such strong confidence?"

Beatrice on the other side had no intention of touching the suitcase. Instead, she stared at the other's lifeless wooden face with the densely packed red eyeballs on her crown.

After hearing the other party's doubts, the master continued to explain in a leisurely tone as if he didn't care at all.

"The mystery of the research object has completely disappeared. This is an indisputable fact. She is now a redefined and reinterpreted existence..."

"It is a wonderful image painted with the sublime as its brush and paint, the only existence in the world that can be described as perfect..."

Perhaps because he was too excited, the master's body shook noticeably while he was speaking. Fine dust fell through the cracks in the wood carvings, causing Beatrice to move aside with disgust on her face.

"I don't understand your strange metaphors. Anyway, you want to say that it was just an accident, right?"

"Your understanding is correct. The experimental subject is indeed an accident that should not appear in this world."

"That's good. I hope you won't let any new accidents happen in my next plan."

Having said this, Beatrice, with more than a dozen eyes on her crown moving at the same time, looked at the suitcase, and then tapped her palms lightly with her fan, making a "pa pa" sound.

Then, the black-hatted girl who had fought a battle with Xuefeng on the viaduct walked into the temple with her head lowered. She silently picked up the suitcase and stood about ten meters away from Beatrice, looking like she was waiting for the next order.

"Now that we have received the transaction object, we must also show our sincerity to our partners."

"Saori, go and capture Yukikaze Egami and hand her over to the master."

"Speaking of which, Gehenna and the students of Holy Trinity should be willing to fight for her now, right? Then we can treat this unexpected accident as a sideshow before the main show begins."

"By the way, you should have heard what the master said just now, right?"

"That child might be able to be sacrificed in place of Atsuko. Don't say I didn't give you a chance, okay?"

Hearing Beatrice's arrogant tone that sounded like alms, the black-hatted girl named Saori bowed slightly, as if to thank her.

However, after standing up, Saori asked again respectfully in a low voice with hesitation between her brows.

"Madam, the last person attacked by this kind of bomb was Jiang Shang Xuefeng, right?"

"This doesn't seem to be related to your mission, so what do you want to know?"

All the eyes on Beatrice's tiara suddenly turned towards Saori, as if examining its prey.

"No...I'm so sorry..."

"I'm just worried that I'll fail again in the next operation, so I want to confirm whether I need to make more preparations..."

These words, which were obviously filled with nervousness and embarrassment, seemed to make Beatrice feel much better, and the dozen eyes on the crown turned to the master opposite again.

"This is your business. Do what you should do while my sympathy is still there."

"Yes, I understand."

Saori lowered her body again, then backed away from the temple ruins carrying the suitcase.

At this time, the master craftsman who had been silent for a long time turned the wooden head towards Beatrice and asked with obvious doubt in his tone.

"I cannot understand your promise. Arius' royal bloodline is an indispensable part of your plan, and my research subject cannot theoretically replace the role of the contractor. This is an untenable agreement."

Beatrice, who was about to turn around and leave, turned back slightly and looked at his wooden face after hearing the master's question.

"Master, that's not an agreement..."

"After all, kids always need some encouragement before they do bad things, don't they?"

As she spoke, Beatrice suddenly broke into a terrifying smile, then turned gracefully and walked into the shadow of the temple ruins.

The master who stood still stared at the other person's gradually receding back and reminded her in an emotionless voice.

"When Golconda gave me the bomb, he mentioned that due to some kind of interference beyond my knowledge, the story described in the script has taken a new path."

"While the story is still moving in the direction we want it to, we are not really the main characters on the stage."

"So... please be respectful of everything that is happening..."

Chapter 105: The Beginning of the Battle of Tiehui Mountain

The remote suburbs of the Gehenna Autonomous Region.

East side of Tiehuishan Refinery.

Canal Forest, AM 05:00

The gathering point for the "Fishing Department", "Folklore Investigation Department", and "War Research Department".

The rising sun awakens the sleeping birds in the woods. After one or two crisp chirps, the whole forest seems to be full of vitality.

The morning sun slowly rose from the edge of the horizon, and its molten golden light illuminated the dim forest camp. Even the 75mm gun barrel covered with morning dew seemed to be coated with a layer of dazzling gold.
