Even if I transform, I will never be captured.

“That kind of thing shouldn’t be brought out in this kind of situation. Not only is the environment unsuitable, but it might also cause panic. Let’s consider the public’s perspective.”

"Well……"

Satella pouted in resentment. Although she was still somewhat unconvinced, Satella had to admit that Kihara Tatsuki was right.

"Let me take you back."

Kyoto opened the passenger door for Satella before getting into the driver's seat himself.

After Satella got into the car, he asked, "So, where are you going?"

"Do you know about Cai Manufacturer's?"

"Is there such a place in Academy City?"

Hmm...it seems the secrecy surrounding the honey jelly has been handled quite well.

Satella nodded. "Then take me to XXXXX."

"understood."

Pulling up the handbrake, releasing the clutch, and stepping on the accelerator, the car silently accelerated away from the windowless building and disappeared into the night.

...When the figure completely disappeared into the night, Aleister looked away from the instruments.

“You’ve been led by the nose from beginning to end, Aleister.” A voice echoed in the empty space.

"Does it matter?" Staring at the rows of items laid out on the ground, Aleister's calm voice rang out from somewhere in the space: "I have already gotten what I wanted."

"Negotiation with language, bargaining in a civilized manner... can't you see considerable value in these actions? Then again, perhaps it's all about prioritizing efficiency. A sentiment that a man floating in a glass container would never understand."

Efficiency and value.

This is what distinguishes the two monsters.

The owner of the voice emerged from the darkness.

Long, golden hair.

Her tall, radiant figure and the loose white cloth clothing covering her body made it impossible to accurately determine her gender, but at least from her appearance, she looked like a woman.

A being named [Aiwass] squatted down in front of that row of props. Despite possessing what could be considered supreme power in this era, she played with those props with great interest, like a child.

"What do you think?"

"Its power is insignificant, but it carries another civilization, so it has value and deserves our respect."

This refers not only to these props, but also to Satella herself.

"It's basically the same as my judgment."

It was impossible to tell whether the voice was male or female, old or young, a saint or a sinner; for just a moment, a sense of interest crept in.

"So more than these things, I'm looking forward to what surprises she'll bring me in the future."

"So, what are your plans for this person?"

"Do not worry."

Aleister's reply echoed in this space.

That sound.

I don't know if it's just my imagination, but I feel a little pleased.

"I prepared a big gift for her."

……

……

With a creak and a slight sway, the car came to a stop in front of a tall building.

"arrive."

"Kihara Tatsuki said to Satella."

"Thank you."

After a polite thank you, Satella opened the car door, got out, and checked the time. It had taken about an hour to get from the windowless building in District 7 to the talent housing in District 2.

As for now, it's already 10 PM.

I've been busy until this late without even realizing it.

Nearly two days have passed since the Angel's Fall began, but Satella only managed to sleep for a short while on the way back in the car.

I was always busy before, so I didn't feel it, but now that I have free time, I feel really sleepy.

Go back and get a good night's sleep!

Satie stretched and politely said goodbye to Kishou Danxi before entering the towering research institute.

"Ding--"

After Satella's iris was verified, the institute's doors were opened.

The interior was pitch black, with only a few dim lights maintaining the minimum necessary for the facility to operate.

However, the strangely shaped shadows cast by the lights can evoke unpleasant associations.

For a fleeting moment, Satella, standing at the doorway, felt as if she were standing right next to the jaws of a giant beast, ready to be devoured if she stepped inside.

"...It must be my imagination."

Satella rubbed her face to cheer herself up.

"After all, it's so late, and the scientists have all gone home to rest. Besides, keeping the lights on all the time would consume a lot of electricity."

Thinking about it this way, Satella suddenly realized how rich Misaki Shokuhou was. After all, it would be very expensive to keep such a huge research institute running.

Looking back now, it was really lucky that I was able to latch onto Misaki Shokuhou's coattails right at the beginning of my transmigration. Not only did I enjoy a comfortable material life, but even things like identification were taken care of for me.

Yes, I should spend some quality time with her during this period!

With these thoughts in mind, Satella stepped into the research institute and soon arrived at her residence, located deep within the talent workshop.

Satella turned the doorknob, pushed open the door, and opened her mouth, about to shout "I'm back," when a large plume of steam sprayed down from above.

Satella, who had never expected to be ambushed here, inhaled a large mouthful of vapor.

"Waaah..."

Then Satella's red and purple eyes darted around, and her head started spinning.

In the last moment before she lost consciousness, she saw Misaki Shokuhou holding a rope in one hand and a whip in the other, sneering at her.

This is it!

With these sorrowful thoughts in her heart, Satella suddenly collapsed to the ground with a thud.

"I slept so comfortably!"

Satella woke up from her sleep and instinctively tried to stretch—but she couldn't.

I stretched it out again, but it still wouldn't budge.

Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her beautiful reddish-purple eyes slowly opened in confusion.

"Finally... I'm awake."

The voice rang out in front of her, and Satella wasn't sure if it was her imagination, but she felt that the voice carried a deep resentment.

"Oh, honey shokujo, good morning."

Still somewhat dazed, Satella opened her large, misty eyes and greeted the girl in front of her.

"Hey, Misaki-chan, why are your eyes all red? Did you stay up all night?"

Misaki Shokuhou: "..."

Misaki Shokuhou didn't want to answer; she even had a "mmp" that she wanted to blurt out.

However, considering her elegant image, she still didn't say it.

—But I'm so angry!

Last night, after drugging Satella, she carried the unconscious Satella and painstakingly tied her to a chair.

Don't let Satella's usual light and agile movements fool you; after she passed out, Misaki Shokuhou felt she was a fat pig! Incredibly heavy! Just lifting Satella onto a chair exhausted this exercise-challenged woman.

After being moved to the chair, Satella kept falling down because she was unconscious. Misaki Shokuhou held her down while tying ropes around her, working hard for almost half an hour before finally getting Satella properly tied up.

Although the whole process was very arduous, just thinking about what would happen next made Misaki Shokuhou extremely excited, and all her fatigue disappeared.

More than an hour had passed by then, but Satella still hadn't woken up.

By the way, was my drug really that potent?

Misaki Shokuhou was somewhat skeptical, since the sleeping potion she used could only make someone unconscious for about half an hour.

But it doesn't matter, after all, Satella's sleeping face is also very cute, just looking at that face, Misaki Shokuhou won't feel bored.

Then she just kept looking and looking...

An hour has passed.

Two hours have passed.

……

Six hours have passed.

Misaki Shokuhou is furious!
