You Have a New Job (Continued)

A minute later, he wrote his comments and signed the report, then returned it to Yae Sakura.

"Alright, it seems you've gotten used to the duties of S-Rank Valkyrie. You're doing a great job, not much worse than Rita."

Rita is very useful, especially in non-combat situations.

Yae Sakura is very useful now, both in combat and in non-combat situations.

This is undoubtedly good news.

Yae Sakura lowered her head shyly.

"Everyone has taken good care of me, and I still have a lot to learn. In short, I'm glad I didn't cause Mr. Otto any trouble."

"You really need to be more confident. Even the meticulous Durandal has given you high praise. You are definitely more outstanding than you think."

"No way..."

The fox-eared shrine maiden couldn't resist the praise. Her pure and refined temperament was replaced by the shyness and joy of an ordinary young girl, which only made her more stunning and moving.

Otto smiled silently.

'With Kallen's big mouth, she could probably make you blush like this hundreds of times a day, right? No wonder she managed to hook you up.'

Otto was certainly a little jealous of Kallen's choice, but Otto felt more intense sadness and regret—if it weren't for that tragedy back then, Kallen would have returned to the Far East, rescued this pure and lovely priestess, and then lived happily ever after.

Let Kallen continue her life and allow her to perpetuate her happiness.

Just thinking about that scene gave Otto endless motivation.

"Mr. Otto, are you alright? Why did you suddenly space out?"

"Oh, it's nothing. Let's talk about something else. Anqi, the Thousand-Person Ruler, still nowhere to be found?"

Otto turned to Amber and asked.

Amber bowed her head respectfully and said:

"Your Excellency, I'm sorry, we haven't found any relevant clues so far."

"Hmm... not that surprising. Sue, like my old friend, is Fusion Warrior who transcends humanity. Not to mention his illusion abilities, he doesn't even need to rely on human supplies; he can sustain his life solely on Honkai Energy. If someone like that doesn't want to show himself, there's nothing Schicksal can do about it."

Otto rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.

If the Thousand-Person Ruler is Anqi, then she'll be quite difficult to control. That child, without any guidance, uncovered K423's true background, even persuading K423 to bravely accept reality and helping her undergo a spiritual transformation. She's too intelligent, her talent and wit are so high that even Durandal praised her highly; she's really hard to manage.

Moreover, there's Sue's involvement. Otto dares not underestimate this unfathomable senior; it's hard to imagine what changes he can bring to Anqi, but he'll most likely make Anqi even more difficult to deal with.

How can we ensure that this Thousand-Person Ruler becomes an asset to the plan, rather than a variable that disrupts the game?

"Deeply sentimental... vengeful... clear about gratitude and resentment... World Serpent?"

Otto sorted out the clues, pondered deeply, and vaguely saw a direction.

I'm going on a business trip tomorrow.

I got a last-minute assignment; I have to go on a business trip tomorrow and get up early. I'll see if I have time to write during the day while I'm on the road. I need to get some rest early tonight. Sorry, goodnight.
