"Jaden, who is this?"
When Erina saw Jaden disembark, she noticed a woman with short, sharp-looking hair and professional attire next to him, so she asked with a smile.
"She's called Ikusaba Mukuro..."
Ah, this...
When Ikusaba Mukuro heard Jaden directly state her name, her current mood was as stimulating as riding a bumper car, only to suddenly discover that the track was a roller coaster!
While she couldn't fully comprehend Jaden's mindset of 'I know you're a spy, but I'm not going to bother with you,' she assumed that, to avoid unnecessary trouble, concealing her identity would still be a must...
In fact, because of this assumption, Ikusaba Mukuro had deliberately put on some disguise before disembarking.
But the facts proved-the emperor wasn't worried, but the eunuch was.
She had worried about so many unnecessary things, only to find that the person walking in front of her was empty-headed and hadn't thought about anything...
Honestly, there was no moment that made Ikusaba Mukuro more aware of the difference between herself and this man named Jaden than now.
-Not even when she learned he killed a Tyrannosaur with his bare hands!
She felt like she had never been able to keep up with this man's thoughts...
She even felt like her state of anxiety made her look like a clown!
Thinking this, she sighed inwardly and then gave Erina a deep look.
Nakiri Erina. She knew this woman.
-Poor thing, spending the rest of her life with a man like this must be exhausting.
Ikusaba Mukuro began to pity Erina.
Erina, unaware of Ikusaba Mukuro's thoughts, simply continued listening to Jaden.
"This person is one of the two sisters in the Ultimate Despair group that Togami mentioned before. She's here to be a spy. So, later, remember to prepare a set of appropriate spy gear for her, give her an office, and set up communication equipment so she can better contact Izuru Kamukura's side."
Hmm...
If this was Ikusaba Mukuro's first time meeting Jaden, she would be as shocked as that man named Togami Byakuya over there, who was wide-eyed, slightly agape, completely unable to comprehend what Jaden was saying but didn't know how to speak.
But she was used to it now.
She roughly understood.
-No matter how unreasonable Jaden's actions were, they were reasonable!
Compared to trying to follow this man's train of thought, it was better to pity the Nakiri woman.
Come to think of it, herself at this moment...
Ikusaba Mukuro looked at Erina with this thought, but her idea ended there.
Because when Erina heard Jaden's words, she simply smiled.
"I understand... In that case, let's also assign her a few assistants, so she doesn't get too overworked doing this kind of job alone in an unfamiliar place."
Saying this, Erina even smiled at Ikusaba Mukuro.
"By the way, since you'll be working at Totsuki for this period, please report your food preferences and get a physical examination. After all, Totsuki is the leader in this country's culinary industry, so you can look forward to the employee meals~"
"Also, since you're spying for us, your salary probably won't be consistently deposited into your account-don't worry, every month when Totsuki issues paychecks, I won't forget your share. If you have an ideal income range in mind, remember to compile a report and inform me."
Hiss-
Now Ikusaba Mukuro was beginning to understand why Jaden and Nakiri Erina were a couple.
Because... both of them were not right!?
She had been a mercenary for years, and she thought she had met enough people. Lately, she'd been interacting with the 'Despair Comrades' her sister cultivated, and there was no shortage of mentally unbalanced people among them, but... these two were clearly more unbalanced!
To use the local dialect frequently used by one of her former mercenary companions: You two are definitely messed up!
Was this really a human thought process?
Ikusaba Mukuro was dumbfounded.
After confessing everything, she had considered that she might die, that she might be imprisoned and used as leverage, and that she might endure more unpleasant things...
But the one thing she hadn't considered was being 'recruited' by the other party like an employee interview after being discovered!
Settling in as an enemy spy, with food, housing, an office, subordinates, and a regular salary...
Could one be a spy this way!?
Ikusaba Mukuro's worldview was severely shaken!
At this moment, Kaguya, accompanied by Hayasaka Ai, walked over, looked Ikusaba Mukuro up and down several times, and nodded in satisfaction.
"You must be my big brother's subordinate... well, by extension, you're a Shinomiya family member. Being recognized by Mr. Yuki means your ability is indeed good-when I become the head of the Shinomiya family, remember to report to me. I will surely use your talents!"
Uh...
Being recognized... seems like I've been recognized by the future boss...
However...
Ikusaba Mukuro looked at Shinomiya Kaguya, hesitating to speak...
She didn't know what to say. She wanted to agree, but Jaden spoke up with a question at that moment.
"Speaking of which, how is this person's big brother doing, who was with you? Is your leader not Izuru Kamukura, but that Shinomiya what's-his-name Hikaru?"
Hearing Jaden's question, delivered with a hint of Conqueror's Haki, Ikusaba Mukuro's mouth, which was about to agree, subconsciously spoke the truth:
"I was actually sent by Junko-chan. If we had to say who our leaders are, it would be Izuru Kamukura and Junko-chan-as for the Shinomiya family's eldest son, he was just a tool initially, and now he's been thrown into the dungeon by Junko-chan..."
"I've seen Junko-chan like that since I was little. When she keeps pets, she occasionally tosses them aside because Junko-chan has no patience; she quickly gets bored. She might forget about a pet for a long time, and I have to help feed them during that period. Since I'm here now, the Shinomiya family's eldest son is probably already starved to death."
After blurting out the entire answer, Ikusaba Mukuro realized-she seemed to have said something she shouldn't have!
This was just like before when Jaden questioned her, and she told him everything.
She now somewhat realized... it seemed that all the specialized training she underwent to resist interrogation was rendered ineffective when facing Jaden...
She seemed to be instinctively submissive to this man-if she and another soldier stood opposite this man simultaneously, rather than fighting him, she would probably beat her companion into unconsciousness to escape the situation!
Moreover, when Jaden asked questions, his voice seemed to make her mind wander, and in that state, her instinct made her comply, so she would say both what she should and shouldn't say...
-She had no secrets in front of this man!
She understood this and then looked at Shinomiya Kaguya with some worry.
In her opinion, even if Jaden and Nakiri Erina were not normal people, it was rare enough to have two such eccentrics show up at once.
And Shinomiya Kaguya...
This person should be normal, right?
So, after hearing her words, and realizing her big brother was probably dead, she would surely want to kill her now...
Darn it, I didn't expect to fall here!
Just as Ikusaba Mukuro began to fret again, she saw Shinomiya Kaguya pause, then cover her face with one hand, and slowly begin to laugh!
"Big Brother is dead, huh... That's truly too good... cough cough, I mean, too tragic. But you don't need to worry. I know my big brother; he's always been very annoying. I always thought it wouldn't be strange if he suddenly died one day. So I know this matter is definitely not your fault; it's all because he was too annoying!"
Hmm!?
Ikusaba Mukuro was stunned.
Then, she looked at the exceptionally gentle-smiling Shinomiya Kaguya, then at Jaden and Erina. She understood; she was slowly starting to grasp everything!
Indeed...
-There wasn't a single sane person here!
You people are the Ultimate Despair, aren't you!
