You Have a New Job (Continued)

We can't beat them, there's no way to fight them.

Left with no other choice, Bronya had to change the subject.

"Let's get down to business. How's the situation?"

"It was resolved smoothly. I could see it clearly from a great distance. Your little Ninti is truly amazing!"

Kiana gave a thumbs up.

Especially that giant robot, it was so handsome that Kiana could hardly keep her legs together.

Bronya smiled and nodded in relief.

That's right, how could she not be worried when her own people were going to the battlefield? After thinking it over, Kiana's ability was the most suitable for remote observation, and if necessary, she could also drag Mei over to help. So she had no choice but to endure the humiliation of submitting to the Cabbage Worm and shamelessly ask Kiana for help.

As expected, Kiana readily agreed and then took Bronya's place, watching as Ninti and Cocolia resolved the incident safely.

"Thank you, Kiana."

"What kind of relationship do we have? Why are you saying things like that to me!"

"I just contacted the class monitor, and she resolved it smoothly on her end as well. Herrscher appeared in both Europe and America at the same time, but both were resolved quickly, which is unbelievable. Just a few months ago, Herrscher were seen as the most terrifying crisis that could destroy the world."

"What do you mean? You look down on Herrscher? Bronya, you better step up! Don't forget that you're the only one among us who hasn't become Herrscher yet!"

Kiana always manages to capture some really strange angles.

After a moment of silence, Bronya said dryly:

"But why did Bronya become Herrscher?"

"Don't you... feel like you're not fitting in?"

Kiana asked with a sincere expression.

Bronya's weary mind, exhausted from working on paperwork, subconsciously followed this line of thought for a moment.

"To be honest, it's a bit incompatible... wait, why should we conform when it comes to becoming Herrscher? Is it some kind of honor?"

Bronya angrily kicked Kiana in the butt.

Kiana patted her bottom dismissively and said indifferently:

"If it doesn't change, it doesn't change. I didn't say I looked down on you."

"You—never mind, anyway, if there's nothing else, go back first. I'll treat you to something delicious next time. Bronya wants to rest."

Bronya sighed in resignation.

Firstly, I really can't beat the Herrscher of the Void, and secondly, she just helped me, so I'm too embarrassed to criticize her intelligence.

"Wait a minute, I have another question."

"Explain."

"Did the class monitor say when she'll be back?"

Kiana blinked expectantly.

Bronya shook her head in disappointment.

"I just asked, but the class monitor said there's something really important at Great Void Mountain and he can't leave. He might have to wait a while longer."

"Why is it like this? Maybe we should go check it out sometime next time. I've been to Great Void Mountain before, it should be in this direction..."

Kiana moved her eyes, seemingly searching for the location of Great Void Mountain.

The dissatisfaction and expectation on her face made Bronya's heart sink.

"Well..."

After a long while, Bronya sighed deeply and said:

"I also have something I'd like Kiana to pass on to."

"Okay, what's up?"

"Bronya probably won't be going back to school."

"..."

In fact, as early as when Anti-Entropy announced that Bronya was the person in charge of the East Sea Base, St. Freya realized that she could not go back, and Kiana felt the same way.

But when Bronya said it herself, it still brought tears to Kiana's eyes, who was usually optimistic and cheerful.

"Haha, well, I'm going back to eat now. We'll talk about it another time..."

Kiana!

Bronya reached out and grabbed the little white-haired boy who was trying to escape.

Kiana stood frozen in place, too afraid to turn around.

"Bronya has her own responsibilities to bear, just as everyone else has their own burdens. But this is just graduating early. Everyone at St. Freya will still be Bronya's best friends. If anyone is in danger, Bronya will fly over to face it with them without hesitation, just like before, nothing will change... Please pass on these messages for me."

"I don't want to!"

"Kiana..."

"I won't relay the message! If you want to tell everyone something, say it yourself!"

Kiana, unwilling to face this parting, shook off Bronya's hand and plunged into the spatial rift, returning to St. Freya.

Hidden in the online world, the Red Queen watched Kiana's willfulness with a helpless smile—look, she still retains this impulsiveness and willfulness, so we can't say that Anqi is doing a bad job, can we?

Bronya looked at the empty office for a long time, then shook her head helplessly.

"Seriously, it seems I need to find some time to get together with everyone as soon as possible."

[Bronya, I have compiled recommendations for 89 issues raised today. Would you like to proceed with implementation and confirmation now?]

"Okay, let Bronya see them all."

Bronya returned to her desk.

As the highest-ranking officer of the base, Bronya's current job is to receive and approve important documents from both inside and outside the base, then hand them over to the Red Queen for a second review. The Red Queen will provide targeted implementation suggestions for each document based on the current situation of the base, before returning it to Bronya. After Bronya's detailed confirmation and approval, the Red Queen will be responsible for the specific implementation.

It sounds like it's going back and forth, a bit cumbersome, doesn't it?

However, compared to the process of approval from the grassroots level all the way to the highest level, and then from the highest level down to the execution end, it is ten or a hundred times simpler.

Moreover, apart from a few confidential items, most of the work is absolutely transparent from top to bottom. Every piece of data is clear and traceable, and any internal personnel can see the basis for the decision and the implementation process.

"Yes, your opinions are all very pertinent. I think there's no problem with them. Let's implement these methods."

[Okay, please grant authorization, Bronya.]

Bronya followed the standard procedure, registering her palm print, recording video and audio, and completing the base commander's authorization.

Then, she relaxed and leaned back in her chair, letting out a long sigh.

"It's finally over."

[Thank you for your hard work, Bronya, the base commander.]

"It's alright. I thought it would be busier, but it's much easier than I expected. Red Mother Cocolia develop you? I have no idea. Thinking about it, your functions are just too powerful. Not only can you execute decrees, but you can even make suggestions based on the actual situation... Even Bronya would find it hard to imagine how complex this level of mental model must be."

[WARNING: The development information of this system is highly confidential and can only be shared in a completely secure location after authorization from the Cocolia executor. Any unauthorized access to development information will be considered a threat to the Anti-Entropy organization. Please exercise caution and use this system reasonably within the specified guidelines.]

"..."

Bronya decided to ask Cocolia in person next time.

[Additionally, considering Bronya's high intelligence and network technology skills, the Red Queen suggests that you take on some of the research and system maintenance work.]

"Uh... Bronya can try it first, but there's no guarantee of success."

[Received. Starting tomorrow, Red Queen will arrange relevant work for you. Also, Cocolia's executor set up an emergency recording three hours ago, requesting it be played after 9 PM. Would you like to play it now?]

"Mother Cocolia? Okay, go ahead and put it down."

[' Bronya, it's getting late. Hurry up and finish your work and go to bed. Do you still want to grow taller?' — End of playback. Repeat?]

"... No need, I'm going to sleep."

Bronya had a premonition that, given Mother Cocolia's current behavior, similar admonitory voice messages would likely be a daily occurrence from now on.

"Even at this age, Mother Cocolia still treats me like a child..."

Bronya smiled helplessly, but couldn't help wondering what Seele was doing right now.
