Yucas Amili.
For the record, Jonas remembered her, and not because she had the biggest tits of all the character portraits.
It had far more to do with her formidable strength and outstanding performance in the story.
In a midgame story sequence, the protagonist blew up the Wetting Conglomerate's building, only to be surrounded by mechanized troops and gravely wounded.
Jonas's original self sent Miss Esnie to eliminate this thorn in his side. At that point, however, the story had not progressed far enough for the [Black Valkyrie] to be anywhere near recruitable.
By all rights, it should have been certain death-the kind where not even Jesus could save him.
Unfortunately, a protagonist was still a protagonist. Even in that situation, a deus ex machina let him escape with his life.
The Wetting Conglomerate had offended several other major conglomerates and the Peacekeeping Forces over business matters.
To make life difficult for Jonas, the Peacekeeping Forces joined forces with those conglomerates to dispatch a Special Task Force, intercepting the [Black Valkyrie] in Desolate City as she went to kill the protagonist.
What followed was one of the game's most iconic scenes: the showdown in Desolate City.
Yucas Amili led the Special Task Force that intercepted the [Black Valkyrie]. At the time, the [Black Valkyrie] was at the height of her fame, and almost no one believed this newly promoted branch director of the Peacekeeping Forces could stand against Esnie, the [Black Valkyrie].
The reality, however, left everyone stunned.
The newly promoted branch director of the Peacekeeping Forces single-handedly held off Esnie, the [Black Valkyrie], for over three hours, even gaining the upper hand several times during their clashes.
By then, Esnie had already killed no fewer than ten title-class opponents. Some even called her the strongest individual combatant in District 25.
To exchange blows with her without giving an inch, Miss Yucas's true strength had to be T0-tier. She would hold her own even in the late game.

With that thought, Jonas paused, then addressed Eiffel beside him:
"That Yucas... have her come over tomorrow."
"It's about time we settled a score with the Peacekeeping Forces, too."
The Wetting Conglomerate, Alt Branch Building.
The young woman named Yucas Amili stood before the elevator doors, her voluptuous figure reflected in their surface. Even without her Peacekeeping Forces uniform, she still drew attention.
As the youngest branch director in the Peacekeeping Forces, Yucas was unquestionably capable.
Her reputation, by contrast, was far less impressive. Few people had even heard of this branch director.
That was due to her consistently low-key approach. Yucas disliked drawing attention to herself, so few knew just how illustrious the young branch director's record was.
She had single-handedly wiped out a fully armed criminal hideout, personally prevented the firing of a Space-Based Weapon, and escaped unscathed after being surrounded by an entire Tactical Mech Squad.
The Peacekeeping Forces placed great importance on seniority. The title of "youngest" alone showed just how much weight Yucas's position as branch director carried.
It was no exaggeration to say that she was fully qualified to lead the entire Peacekeeping Forces someday.
Even now, many members of the Peacekeeping Forces' leadership thought highly of Miss Yucas.
Of course, they valued more than her combat prowess. They valued her overall capabilities.
Her past missions showed that she possessed not only exceptional fighting ability, but also outstanding mental fortitude.
That was why the Peacekeeping Forces had sent her on this mission.
Indeed, she had not come to offer some supposed "apology." She had come with an objective.
In other words, this was not an ordinary meeting, but a negotiation.
In truth, though, Miss Yucas did not feel particularly nervous.
She had long since heard of Mr. Jonas's infamy.
She had met plenty of conglomerate heirs like him. Without exception, they were all empty suits.
Rumors deserved only a fraction of anyone's trust, especially rumors put out by conglomerates.
Rather than believe Jonas had quelled the unrest in the Alt District himself, she found it more plausible that the Wetting Conglomerate had staged the whole thing in advance.
Of course, she would only know what Mr. Jonas was really like once she met him.
The elevator's floor indicator kept climbing, and the doors slowly opened when it reached the designated floor.
An exceptionally spacious conference room came into view. A man in a black shirt sat at the head of the table, his hands clasped as though he had been waiting for some time.
Behind him, a young woman dressed as a secretary turned her gaze toward Yucas the instant the elevator doors opened.
"Miss Yucas, correct?"
Jonas's voice was fairly gentle. Before she could introduce herself, the man before her spoke:
"A pleasure to meet you. I'm Jonas."
-Once you lost the psychological upper hand in a negotiation, you would unconsciously place yourself in a subordinate position for the rest of it.
Using the room's arrangement to plant psychological suggestions and put her at a disadvantage without her realizing it, then guiding the conversation to seize control of the negotiation...
Yucas took a deep breath. The casual look in her eyes vanished, replaced by seriousness.
She took back her earlier assessment.
-This Mr. Jonas might be a formidable opponent.
