Use Your Official Title at Work

Mo Si had brought Etemon and other Digimon to find a nice spot nestled between mountains and rivers yesterday, intending to build houses there, but unexpectedly encountered the returning Sleipmon today.

"Just you? Where is Satsuma?"

Mo Si looked left and right, not seeing Captain Satsuma's figure around Sleipmon.

Sleipmon said, "He is waiting for us elsewhere."

"Waiting for us? You're taking me away?" Mo Si didn't understand.

"Yes."

Sleipmon nodded, then solemnly announced, "Angewomon, Yggdrasil has appointed you as the Digital World's diplomat stationed in the human world."

Eh?

Mo Si was stunned for a moment.

A diplomat?

Hey, hey, hey, I just arrived in the Digital World a day ago, haven't done anything yet, haven't even laid the house foundations, and you're making me go back?

Damn it!

Yggdrasil, you little punk, what are you trying to do?

Right in front of Sleipmon, Mo Si didn't dare to complain out loud to Yggdrasil, and could only mutter to herself inwardly.

Yet the sudden appointment still made her a bit surprised, while also arousing some curiosity as she asked, "Why does Yggdrasil value me so much?"

An insignificant nobody like her who wasn't even an Ultimate should normally be unknown to a big shot like Yggdrasil.

How did she suddenly get asked to be a diplomat?

Sleipmon said, "Actually, I am a Royal Knight."

"Oh." Mo Si gave a cold, flat response.

She had known about Sleipmon being a Royal Knight many years ago.

"Hmm? Aren't you surprised?" Sleipmon asked in puzzlement.

This was, after all, the first time it had revealed its identity in front of Angewomon.

Mo Si feigned surprise: "...Ah? You're actually the legendary Royal Knight!"

Her acting was slightly exaggerated, luckily with a mask covering her eyes, which also blocked most of the flaws in her performance.

This was why some people suddenly improved at acting after covering their eyes; the eyes were the window to expressing emotions, and after covering the window, the emotions that should be expressed by the actor would be replaced by the audience's imagination.

Imagination was flawless!

Thus arose the illusion of good acting.

Sleipmon didn't spot any flaws, imagining Mo Si's surprised look in its mind, which made it feel a little proud.

The name of the Royal Knight represented justice and glory, enough to make every Digimon who was a Royal Knight proud of it.

In the Digital World, very few Digimon had seen a Royal Knight with their own eyes, with most only hearing their name without ever seeing the person, making the Royal Knights a legend of the Digital World.

Sleipmon steadied its mind and continued, "I was ordered by Yggdrasil to incarnate as Kudamon and head to the human world to observe humans, and to promote the peaceful development of the two worlds.

" Ashamed to say, I have been carrying out this mission for many years, yet the progress has remained mediocre, until your appearance changed all of this.

"In just two days, you surpassed my years of results!"

At this point, a bit more admiration crept into Sleipmon's tone.

Mo Si wanted to speak but stopped, stopped and then wanted to speak again.

In the end, she still said nothing.

Sleipmon continued, "Therefore, Yggdrasil has appointed you as the diplomat representing our Digital World to negotiate with the human world."

In short, you're the brat who told Yggdrasil about my business?

Mo Si stared fixedly at Sleipmon, saying nothing.

Sleipmon asked, "Is there a problem?"

Mo Si said, "There is."

Sleipmon asked, "What problem?"

Mo Si asked, "Can I refuse?"

Refuse?

This was such a glorious mission, why refuse?

If it were any other Royal Knight, they would probably have given a cold "No" directly.

Sleipmon's own temperament was relatively gentle, and it admired the Angewomon before it, figuring she must have a deep meaning behind this move.

Even so, Sleipmon was still utterly baffled.

It had no choice but to advise: "I can understand that you have your own plans, but Yggdrasil is the god of the Digital World; to refuse is to go against the will of god. My suggestion is... think about it again."

This was the will of god, and the consequence of defying an imperial decree went without saying.

In ancient times, that meant wiping out nine generations of one's family.

Mo Si lowered her head and fell silent.

She wasn't weighing the pros and cons, but simply because Angewomon was saying in her mind, Obey the will of god; if you reach the conditions for Ultimate Evolution in the future, the possibility of evolving into Ophanimon might grow larger.

Seeing Mo Si stay silent for a long time, Sleipmon spoke again, "You are not fighting alone; both I and DATS will assist you in your work."

Coming to this point, refusing any further would be impolite.

Coupled with the acting cultivation method-reaping what you sow, whatever was being done now would be reflected in future evolution, hence obeying the will of god would increase the probability of eventually evolving into Ophanimon.

Thinking up to here, Mo Si reached a decision: "I'll make this clear first, I don't know the first thing about being a diplomat."

Seeing her agree, Sleipmon smiled and said, "At least you understand more than we do. Just go do what you want to do."

"..."

Mo Si was silent for a moment, then asked, "Right, what about Kurata?"

This was a serious topic, and Sleipmon answered solemnly, "Yggdrasil has judged Kurata as a major enemy hindering the development of the two worlds, and has dispatched Royal Knights to hunt down Kurata everywhere in the Digital World. If he is in the Digital World, he absolutely has nowhere to run."

Oh, then it was fine.

In the original work, Kurata's biggest trump card was Belphemon. As one of the Seven Great Demon Lords, Belphemon was naturally powerful, even absorbing Tokyo's electricity to enhance itself.

Yet even so, it was still defeated by Marcus Damon and ShineGreymon: Burst Mode.

Meanwhile, the combination of Marcus Damon and ShineGreymon: Burst Mode hit a wall when facing the Royal Knights, and if not for the joint help of Thomas H. Norstein, Yoshino Fujieda, and others, they wouldn't even have been able to get past a single Royal Knight-Craniummon.

Right now, Royal Knights including Craniummon hunting Kurata down in the Digital World was no different from a cat playing with a mouse.

Kurata, just wait to die!

-Hopefully Kurata would just die like this in the Digital World.

Thinking this, Mo Si pointed in the distance at Etemon, Goblimon, Mushroomon, Otamamon, Gekomon, Kunemon, and other Digimon who were building houses.

"I want them to go to the human world with me."

When going out, your imposing presence is something you create yourself.

She had to bring some underlings along to prop up the facade.

Sleipmon nodded: "No problem."

Mo Si thought for a moment and added, "There is one more thing."

"...Speak." Even with Sleipmon's good temper, it was somewhat speechless.

Why were there so many matters?

Mo Si said, "As a diplomat, I also need an assistant."

Sleipmon felt this made sense, so it asked, "Do you have a candidate in mind?"

"BanchoLeomon."

Ultimate Digimon were rare, and non-Machine, non-Cyborg Ultimates were even rarer.

In this Digital World, there was one and only one BanchoLeomon, who was the partner of Marcus Damon's father-Suguru Daimon.

Mo Si's true purpose in wanting to see BanchoLeomon was actually Suguru Daimon.

Because Suguru Daimon was not only the first human to master the Digisoul, but also the creator of the Digivice, helping the protagonist trio achieve the conditions for Ultimate Evolution in the original story.

Now, Mo Si also hoped Suguru Daimon could help her cultivate!
