Chapter 18: I Will Revenge
"Regenerator Mk2 ... Mental Corruption Neutralizing Gas ... Regenerator Distinguisher Modification ... Hm, for now, it's completely unnecessary?"
After taking a few glances, she put this research aside. The few Abnormalities that the Corporation had received did not have any very strong lethal properties. There is no need to consider upgrading the rescue method now. The so-called Safety Department is just cleaning up the employee's body and helping the Department. For the time being, it won't have much effect.
"Angela, if Netzach is caught using Enkephalin again today, I want you to hang her from the ceiling. But wait. Before that, to make it even worse for her, order her to re-write the report."
X threw the report filled with crooked writing into the nearby trash can. She didn't want to look any further. She had no idea how this thing would pass Angela's test. It even had a beer flavor attached to it.
[Understood Manager, I will convey your original statement to Netzach]
"Shh, Angela. Don't tell her I said this. Is it okay for you to use your name instead? You know, Netzach doesn't take me seriously, nor is she afraid of me at all."
Although she is a Manager, the main threat comes from her AI Secretary...
Even though they have known each other for a mere three days, X has observed the AI Secretary's specialties and noticed how broken her personality is. AI Secretary is only strict at work, but when it comes to everyday small matters, she is always playing around with tricks, teasing X.
But it's not impossible to give orders to the AI Secretary. Normally, the AI Secretary's concern for the Manager is not like pretending. If she can make her happy, then the AI Secretary will be 'Extremely Generous' and 'Satisfy the manager's 'Needs'.
There were only the two of them in the Manager's room, the AI Secretary, and X. X swung her chair around until she faced the AI Secretary. She curled her back like a cat and grabbed the corner of the Secretary's shirt.
X approached AI Secretary's ear and pressed down on the voice that only the two of them could hear whispering, the low and richly magnetic mezzo-soprano voice sounded tingling and wild.
"Please, Angela, don't tell Netzach that was my order."
As if the black cat suddenly had a problem with the plot to cause trouble, her yellow eyes showed a hint of cunning.
X's implication was very clear, X hoped that Angela could punish Netzach on her behalf... Perhaps she was taking advantage of her power to take personal revenge, but that had nothing to do with it.
[Have you forgotten that you signed the Protocol? If Netzach is punished, you will have to bear it.]
The AI Secretary did not respond immediately, but instead hinted at X about something.
"Helping Netzach recover from addiction is for her good."
X spoke calmly as if she had nothing to do, after all, the right to explain was in Secretary AI's hands. No matter what the agreement was, it was just a decision made by the dictator's words.
Angela is the dictator in charge of the Department Dean and Corporation Affairs. Although she obeys the Manager, she still doesn't listen. Angela will work only when she is willing to do it...
Even though she hadn't yet clearly realized what it was, X had a vague feeling about what Angela would like.
Intentionally not wearing a coat properly and waiting for the AI Secretary to fix it... Intentionally showing a helpless look so the AI Secretary can help... Pretending to look pitiful so the AI Secretary can reassure her.....
By satisfying the Secretary's desires, she will be able to obtain everything she wants. It does not matter what the means are; if she can achieve her goal, that is all that matters.
Too vile, isn't it? However, if you want to live, in addition to showing off your excellent work, those mixed relationships must also try to show off.
There's no need to show any subtlety or sensitivity, just the simplest way to make Angela happy is enough.
[Understood, if this is your idea, I will do my best to execute it]
AI Secretary's eyes were closed, her expression was still dignified, her tone seemed to be the same as usual, but her speech speed seemed to be a bit faster...
X didn't even realize how despicable her tricks were to make AI Secretary's fierce personality relax.
—— Something, isn't Angela easy to talk to ——
Thinking like this, X didn't doubt her plan, completely ignoring the worst possible outcomes and why it was always the reason she was punished.
It's not that she made a mistake, it's that... she's so interesting, right?
But X was insensitive to other topics other than work, and she didn't have these things in her mind to consider. After she had finished dealing with Netzach's very cursory report, she looked up at another Department Dean's report.
It is also about reporting and research, Malkuth's enthusiasm can be seen in the document, there are quite a lot of things similar to annotations, and expresses many expectations for a better future.
Such a positive attitude deserves recognition, X also believes that people who are passionate about their work can influence others, and arouse positive emotions in others.
But Yesod Dean's report is even more irrefutable. Large amounts of data proof & analysis and the issues of profit have already been stated very clearly. The manager just needs to consider it, that is, choose according to her needs.
[G.O Visualization ]
The interface that visualizes the geometric biological information of Abnormalities and Agents will become available.
This is similar to the Cognition Filter, which covers the entire Corporation at the same time while continuously operating.
[Damage Normalization ]
The interface that visualizes damage accomplished by Abnormalities and Agents will become available. The signing of this agreement will divide the types of harm into four major categories.
[ Abnormality Countermeasures Manual ]
Bringing intelligence Abnormalities into a manual, countermeasures for the Abnormalities will be distributed to the Clerks to reduce their average levels of fear.
After serious consideration, X still believes that the most important thing right now is to understand how Abnormalities themselves cause damage to the employee. Only after understanding can you prevent employees who are working inside from being injured or even dying.
Precise command can prevent the death of employees who are in contact with Abnormalities due to certain triggers. Even if there is no trigger, the employee will have a lot of emotions and value pressures while working, and if the process cannot endure, it will collapse.
Even though under the Cognition Filter they are just a chibi character, X also knows that this is not a game, she can simply command the chibi character, but the employee knows fear, will be afraid, and will resist.
X signed [C.O Visualization] research, then all employees will have an HP bar, and the resulting health bar will appear on the screen, becoming more and more like a game.
The quality of employees can also be explained clearly with cold numbers, which is not a vague one, two, three, four, or five-level delimitation.
Their comprehensive quality definition is divided into Fortitude, Prudence, Temperance, and Justice, which are four basic attributes.
Employee's four basic attributes correspond to Instinct, Insight, Attachment, and Repression.
Even the physical quality and mental state can be indicated by the HP bar and SP bar. Probably if the employee dies or is mentally unstable, as a Manager, her guilt may be a little lighter.
After signing the Protocol, X will choose to receive new Abnormalities today, and the new Abnormalities will be placed in the newly opened Department —— Information Department.
1.[ Opened Can of WellCheers ]
[Somewhere in the distance, you can hear seagulls.....]
2.[F-04-83]
[Everything will be peaceful while you are under the fairies' care ...]
3.[ Mirror of Adjustment ]
["The satisfaction is only temporary though"...]
These things seem indescribably dangerous. Most of the low-level dangerous Abnormalities also have intelligence data. X doesn't need to think too much about the choice, directly choosing Abnormalities that have never had information is okay.
Subject Number [F-04-83] Abnormalities are located in the Information Department Containment unit, this Abnormalities will be in charge of Information Department Dean Yesod.
"Do your best, Yesod."
"Manager, have you truly understood these abnormalities in depth? We must first understand their core needs. It's not as simple as merely interacting with them provides us with excellent reference data?"
On the screen, Dean frowned and looked at X with a critical questioning look, filled with doubt about the Manager's abilities.
"No problem, [Instinct] is essentially to let employees satisfy the main needs of Abnormalities. Although Abnormalities are mostly strange, they also have certain biological characteristics."
X made a YES gesture, a smile filled with confidence, although this smile seemed very stupid to Yesod.... After all, the warm smile in the Corporation should not appear.
"Hmm...I hope that when you finish your work, your work will be as good as your words."
Immediately afterward, as if in disgust, Yesod turned her head to the side, no longer stopping his eyes on X's body, but the scene also shifted to Control Department Dean Malkuth.
"Hm, good morning, Manager! Don't pay too much attention to Yesod, she's just a little serious and doesn't like to laugh, actually not bad. Well, today's work may be a bit difficult, but I believe you can do it. This time I need you to deal with the meltdown reaction!"
"Manager, you also know that this facility is extremely unstable. To keep the abnormality stable after the containment unit is destroyed, we cannot help but release a little bit of energy."
"But as time goes on, meltdowns will become more and more frequent. Certain entities may be born from unstable Abnormal bodies. Of course, you can do it, I believe you are an excellent commander."
Malkuth was completely as before holding the notebook that she had never let go of, and that never-sparing praise and sweet smile were the best encouragement for X.
"I know, it was Qliphoth Meltdown that brought about the violence of the Abnormalities, I will handle this well, Malkuth."
X nodded, signaling that she knew that when things reached a certain level, they would trigger the Meltdown Alarm. Those originally peaceful Abnormalities will become emotionally unstable. At this time, employees need to be promptly mobilized to do work on them, through work to calm those emotionally unstable Abnormalities.
When it was the Safety Department Dean's turn, the screen was blank, there was nothing there.
"Weird... Angela, where is Netzach?"
[According to your request, I ordered her to rewrite part of the report... Do you need to check?]
"Isn't it completely impossible to finish writing this, it's only been a few minutes now."
[Yes, so according to your request, Netzach was hung from the ceiling]
The camera was originally aimed at the Safety Department's office desk and changed direction, adjusted to the top, which is the ceiling position.
"Xxx fuck Angela, hey bitch Corporation!!"
The fierce sound came... Netzach's face, tied up and hanging from the ceiling, was red.
"Netzach, are you listening to me, be careful with your words"
"X, you don't know what Angela did to me! She rejected my report and even hung me up here."
Netzach wiggled, then stood up to blame X, she was accusing Angela of being cruel.
"That...Netzach, Angela is by my side now."
"Why didn't you say anything sooner?!"
At that moment, X saw Netzach's remarkable turn of face and instantly became clear.
"Let's talk about what to do today, Netzach, Angela will let you go in a moment."
