Kisara: Have you lost your mind!? Do you know what will happen in case they will realize something is wrong and trace it back to you?

Primis: We will worry them when that happens.

Kisara: That's not reassuring at all!

Taking the seat across her, Primis motioned Asaka to take another chair next to him and spoke.

Primis: Anyway, let's come to point.

Realizing that Primis had no intention of continuing that topic, Kisara sighed and became serious.

Primis: Our main priority right now is to increase our rank and reach a top in Tokyo Area.

Kisara: It will be hard and take time. After all, you are just at 774,487. Many take years to even reach 100,000 thresholds.

Primis: Sorry but we don't have that luxury of time. In the next two months, we will be in thousands or hundreds or may be even two-digit.

Kisara: H......…HUH!!!!!!!!

Standing up, Kisara was looking at Primis like he made a biggest joke ever.

Kisara: Are you sure you are not in some kind of illusion?

Primis: Whether its illusion or reality, you will know in two months.

Sitting down, Kisara could only sigh. Since she had agreed to join Primis, she also had to go along with it.

Primis: Now that you have Promoter in your Corporation, you better complete all the paperwork by today and open the company from tomorrow onwards.

Kisara: *sigh* Alright, I will try to do so.

Hearing this Primis decided to leave.

Kisara: By the way...…

Primis: Hmmm?

Kisara: Don't you think we are moving too fast?

She asked in worried tone. Well, she was not wrong since it always needed time for a company to stabilize themselves in the market, gain allies, corporation of other companies before slowly slowly rising the top. By rising too fast, the company won't have a solid foundation.

Primis: I know.

Saying this, he left with Asaka. After all, as long as he's here, the company won't fall.

--- Police Station ---

Primis: As expected, more than half of these companies have taken the achievement and money of small corporation to increase their reputation.

Said Primis while going through a computer. Around him laid bodies of many police officers along their staff. They only had a single mark of bullet in the very middle of their forehead.

[Even though Police Headquarters know about it, they still decided to keep a blind eye on it.]

'Primis: They are useless.'

[Can't deny that.]

Primis: Asaka, have you note down the names of all these companies?

Asaka: Yes, Dad.

While he was hacking into their database and looking at the confidential data, he told Asaka to write the names of some specific companies in a notebook.

Ophis: They really didn't want the Civil officers to steal their glory.

Scáthach: What glory. They are more than willing to let their people die instead of asking help from the Security Corporation.

Ophis: True. If it isn't the law that Civil Officer must be present during Gastrea incident, then they would have definitely taken the matter in their own hands.

Scáthach: Pathetic.

Asaka: Here, Dad.

After confirming that she had written the names of all of them without missing a single one, Asaka gave it to Primis.

Primis: Good.

Said Primis as he used one of his hands to pat her head gently. Asaka narrowed her eyes as a smile appeared on her face hearing her dad praise.

'Primis: These companies on purpose hire the Promoters of small Security Corporations. In case Promoters succeed in solving the matter, they find an excuse and don't pay them for their work or give less than the amount they agreed on. And if they fail, then they put all blame on Promoter and their Corporation for their incompetence and demand compensation.'

[They are the very definition of corruption.]

While looking at the names, the corner of Primis curled up a little as a chilling smile appeared on his face.

'Primis: Don't worry. Soon all these companies will bankrupt.'

 [Haha. I can't wait for that.]

Next, Primis erased all his traces from the computer and decided to leave.

Asaka: Dad, won't they find a clue about you when they will check the bullet inside these dead bodies head?

Primis: They won't.

'Primis: After all, before coming here, I did some investigation and found a corrupted ammunition manufacturing company. There is specific bullet that only this company make. I used those very bullets to kill these people. Hence, the investigation will lead police to that company instead of me.'

Primis: It's almost morning. Let's leave since Kisara would be done with all the paperwork by now.

Asaka: Um.

--- Tendo Civil Security Agency –-

CLICK!!

Opening the door, Primis walked inside the room and saw Kisara sleeping with her head resting on the desk.

Walking over to her, he placed a box of sandwich which he bought on the way at the table and picked up the documents that were neatly arranged at the side.

Giving a brief glance to all of them, he nodded her head.

Primis: Everything is done correctly except.......

Using his power, Primis erased his name from the documents before picking up a pen and writing another name.

Ophis: New name?

Primis: Since Seitenshi already know my name as "Erste Herrscher". I better come up with a new one. And this name matches with my current appearance and the title that Gai and Funeral Parlor gave me in previous world.

Scáthach: Der Scharfrichter. Huh. I see. If we translate it then it means "The Executioner".

Primis: Yes. Der Scharfrichter. That will be my name.

[Can't you come up with a simple name? Like Hitman.]

'Primis: Hitman is a title not a name.'

[*sigh* I mean use easy one.]

'Primis: Whatever.'

Replied Primis nonchalantly as he decided to submit the papers so that this "Tendo Civil Security Agency" can officially start.

Primis: Wait for me.

He said as the space wrapped and Primis disappeared from his spot.

Asaka: Woah. Dad is really something. Can I also be able to do that in future?

Scáthach: Yes. But for that you need to train and become stronger.

Asaka: I will and with Teacher help it won't be long before I will be able to enter "Stairway to Heavens".

Hearing this, Scáthach smiled.

Ophis: Asaka, its time for your shot.

Asaka: Oh. Ok, Mom.

Sitting on the chair, Asaka pulled her sleeve back and struck out her arm. Ophis took out a piston out of nowhere, placed it on her arm and pressed it.

Asaka frail body gave a twitch as her arm sucked up the transparent purple liquid.

Scáthach was looking at her student while deep in thought.

'Scáthach: Its normal thing for Initiators to get a shot of corrosion-inhibiting medication once a day. If they neglected to do so then the corrosion percentage in their body would increase, and in the end, it will go over 50% and they would turn into a Gastrea.'

Narrowing her eyes, she continued.

'Scáthach: But just like I said in normal Scenario. Since Lord already have the Antidote for Gastrea virus, I thought he would give it to my student. But I was wrong. Lord has no such intention. He, on the contrary, wants her daughter to be able control her virus.'

Removing her hand from Asaka's arm, Ophis put the piston away.

'Ophis: Still, how could it be easy for 9 years old girl to accomplish something that even the Humans of this word failed to accomplish. It will take time. However, that's what Asaka didn't have since her corrosion rate had reached 49.61% by then.'

Ophis started remembering what happened in previous month.

'Ophis: That's when that Human, Ouma Haruka came into equation again. Primis only sent her a single corrosion-inhibiting medication. Yet, in just a mere one week, she successfully created a better version of it.'

'Scáthach: The newer version not only prevent my student corrosion to go over 50% but she also only needs to take one shot every week instead of every day.'

'Ophis: After taking the shot, for next one week, no matter how many Gastrea Asaka fought and killed, her corrosion remained at 50% and didn't increase even my 0.01%.'

'Scáthach: That woman is truly a genius among geniuses. No wonder Lord wants her.'

At this time, space wrapped and Primis returned. Looking at Asaka, he realized that she had taken her medication.

As he started Patting her head a bit, a sound came from Kisara laptop.

TRING!!

This woke her up a little as she raised her and checked the mail she received. In her half-sleepy state, she read that IISO had accepted her application and her corporation could officially start working from today. In the end, it mentioned the President of the company and the Promoter affiliated with it.

Kisara: D.e..r...... S-S-Schar..fricht…er...

Saying this, she lowered her head and fell asleep again. However, in the next second, she jumped out of her seat.

Kisara: Der Scharfrichter!!! Whose that!?

Primis: Me.

Kisara: Huh?

At this time, she turned her head and saw other people present in the room.

Kisara: Herrscher, when do you came? And what do mean its your name? I clearly remember to fill correct name.

Primis: I changed it.

Kisara: Why!?

Primis: Because of some reason I can't use that name.

Kisara: What reason?

Primis: I wonder.

Kisara: ............…

Seeing that Primis had no intention of continue the topic, she sighed. At this moment, she noticed the box of sandwich on her desk.

Kisara: Is this...for me?

Primis: Yes. Since you have been working overnight, you must be hungry.

Kisara: ............Thank you.

She said in a mosquito voice as a tint of red appeared on her face.

Primis saw that but remained silent.

.

.

.

.

An hour later.

Kisara: I am full.

Leaning back on her chair, Kisara touched her stomach in satisfaction.

Primis: Since you are finished, let's move to our work.

Kisara: Sure.

She started hurriedly typing on her laptop and found many requests. Though before she could select one, Primis gave a notebook to her which had the names of companies.

Primis: See if these companies had put some requests.

Kisara: Let me see.

As she started matching them, she found that most of these companies had put more than one request, and they were specially asking for small Security Corporations.

Kisara: This…

Primis: How is it?

Kisara: Almost all of them have put the request but the compensation is low.

Primis: How low?

Kisara: Even the smallest request should have the compensation of 30,000 yen. However, they are only giving 10,000 yen.

Primis: Only one-third huh.

Kisara: Um. As for biggest request, normally it should be 500,000 yen but they are paying 100,000 yen.

Primis: Hmm. If you count every single one of them, how many requests are there?

Kisara: Ummmmm............there are 279 requests altogether.

Primis: Accept all of them.

Kisara: Wha---

Primis: One more thing. Before accepting, send these companies the message that they have to pay 10x the prices they offered. Means for 10,000 yen request they must 100,000 yen and for 100,000 yen request they must pay 1,000,000 yen. And they must pay all of it in advance.

Kisara: What are you saying!? There is no way anyone would accept this!

Primis: That's true. However, at the end, write in bold capital letter that if we fail to finish all of them within next 24-hours then we will pay 10x the agreed amount.

Kisara: Do you mean......

Primis: For the request we are asking for 100,000 yen, we will pay 1,000,000 yen on failure. And for 1,000,000-yen request, we will pay 10,000,000 yen on failure.

Kisara: I don't have that much money!

Primis: I don't either.

Kisara: Then----

Primis: In the first place, why do you think we have to pay them?

Kisara: Isn't it obvious? It's impossible to complete all 279 requests in a day.

At this moment a mysterious smile appeared on Primis face as he spoke.

Primis: That's exactly what their thought will be.

Kisara: Huh?

Asaka: Dad, do you mean that they will accept this because they will think it's impossible for us to accomplish this feast?

Primis: Yes.

Kisara: ............…How sure are you that they will accept?

Primis: 100%.

'Primis: They are greedy dogs after all. There is no way they will let go of free money.'
