You Have a New Job (Continued)
"Me? If I can't chase it, then, could I set a trap to lure it in?"
"Smart, excellent! Well then, I'll leave it to you. I want to see your proposal in two hours."
"Huh? Huh!! Ran!"
The door to the archbishop's office was closed.
Yae Sakura stood stiffly at the door, not reacting for a long time.
"Ahem! Lady Sakura?"
"Rita... what should I do? This is so important, I... I don't know!"
"You've already admitted it's a trap. The next step is to figure out what to use as bait in the trap and how to trap the Herrscher of Erosion. That's all you need to do. Don't worry, Rita will do everything she can to help you."
Rita took the hand of the next archbishop and led her with a smile to another meeting room.
Yes, it is now confirmed that Lord Otto intends to pass the leadership to Lady Yae Sakura.
Such a deadly event as the Herrscher of Erosion was orchestrated by Yae Sakura.
If this succeeds, coupled with her various contributions during the Herrscher of Rock incident, Yae Sakura's reputation will directly surpass Durandal's. After all, while Durandal also has high reputation, she hasn't actually fought Herrscher in a proper battle!
If this isn't training a successor, then what are we doing?
Of course, Rita's attentiveness was not for such a vain purpose; the most important thing was to defeat the Herrscher, which was the most pressing matter at the moment.
However, the absent-minded and stressed-out Yae Sakura is really quite adorable.
"A solution has arrived?"
"Please take a look, Lord Otto."
Yae Sakura said somewhat nervously.
Otto chuckled inwardly, but maintained a serious expression as he picked up the document and flipped through it.
"So, the bait you chose was the secret meeting between the Archbishop of Schicksal and the Anti-Entropy Executors?"
"Yes. As a newly born Herrscher, from its perspective, I think its strongest desires are twofold: one is to destroy humanity, and the other is the survival instinct. Regardless of which one it is, Schicksal, Anti-Entropy, and World Serpent are all problems it must face. Therefore, it must be concerned about our movements."
"The fact that the top leaders of the two organizations suddenly held a secret meeting clearly indicates that their biggest threats are about to make a big move, so naturally they will become anxious and pay close attention?"
"Hmm, I think this should have a high chance of drawing it out."
Yae Sakura looked at Otto nervously.
Otto stroked his chin, nodded, and smiled:
"That's interesting."
"Do you think this is feasible?"
"But that's not enough."
Otto turned to the side and jokingly tossed Yae Sakura's proposal into the trash can, indicating his disapproval.
Yae Sakura stared at him blankly for a long time before sitting down dejectedly.
"Mr. Otto must have a well-thought-out plan. Please just tell me directly. I'm really not good at this kind of thing."
"Being an archbishop doesn't require being good at everything. You just need to find people who are good at things to help you. The most important thing is strength, and then the ability to judge people. Besides, to come up with such a daring plan as using me, the archbishop, along with the Anti-Entropy executor, as bait, who dares to say you're not smart?"
Otto looked at Yae Sakura with relief.
He then explained:
"Your plan is good, but you've overlooked one thing."
"What?"
"The Herrscher of Erosion possesses extremely strong mobility and destructive capabilities, so any action taken against it must be decisive and effective. Otherwise, realizing its presence has been discovered, it will take extreme measures and may destroy this prosperous technological age in one fell swoop. We only have one chance. Whether it's bait or a trap, it cannot be a 'very likely' but must be a 'certain' solution. Understand?"
What do you mean?
Otto smiled without saying a word, simply placing a cell phone in front of Yae Sakura.
Above it was an encrypted message Otto sent to Cocolia.
The information was sent out long before Yae Sakura had finalized the plan.
