I always felt like I'd seen this person somewhere before.
Cocolia's little girl from back then? No, she just looked a bit like her. Could she be a relative?
Her mother? Or perhaps her older sister?
"She's very capable." Old Yang did not stint on his praise. Even though they belonged to different organizations, he was still glad that humanity had produced someone like her. However, he wanted to confirm something. "Is she connected to Cocolia?"
If she was one of Cocolia's people, that would be troublesome.
Because that would mean Cocolia might have joined forces with Otto, and his Herrscher of Reason Core was still in their hands.
"How perceptive, Welt Yang." Otto praised him in the same tone. "She does have some connection to Cocolia, but you needn't be nervous."
"Cocolia will not become the Alliance Leader of Anti-Entropy."
Otto spoke with complete confidence.
"..." Welt Yang frowned. It sounded as though Otto intended to help his side, but those were merely the devil's honeyed words, with traps hidden beneath them. "Are you planning to interfere in Anti-Entropy's affairs?"
Old Yang worried that his conflict with Cocolia would become Otto's excuse to meddle in Anti-Entropy.
"No, no, no. I have no interest whatsoever in your Anti-Entropy's internal affairs."
Otto shook his head. He had no interest in Anti-Entropy's internal mess. Nearly all of its capable executors were already in his hands. Still, Otto recalled an interesting little girl he had met before and wondered whether she was still following Cocolia.
"By the way, Welt Yang, do you know Iserin Levius?"
Otto still remembered her name.
"Who?"
Old Yang was somewhat puzzled. It was an unfamiliar name, though he seemed to have seen it in some academic journal.
"No wonder you can't beat Cocolia." Otto could not help sighing.
