“Then Olivia-sama, I will excuse you. Have a good night and get some rest.”
After bowing in a respectful tone and respectful manner as always, Marin left Olivia’s room.
Even after almost two full nights, the moderation and manners were not disturbed.
But as she had just talked to her face to face, she could clearly see the blood on her face.
Olivia’s confidante, Aquamarine Glass Hill, had seen all the videos that had been sent to her Olivia just the other day on Olivia’s orders.
Loyal, she did not reject Olivia’s orders, and she made sure to watch all of her videos.
Just before her death, Olivia had a toxic conversation with Marin after watching her video to see what effect her video had on her.
In this way, dozens of questions and answers were conducted for her mental evaluation, and it was confirmed that there was nothing wrong with Marin.
If you think about it again, it is truly irrational and inefficient.
Saying that the video is suspicious, rather than analyzing the video, he uses the subordinate as a test subject.
Also, while Marin watched the video and became her experiment bed, Olivia came to this country and for the first time she almost did nothing, waiting tirelessly for her Marin’s experiment to end.
Thanks to her, she flew through the day with a barrel.
It is inefficient in many ways.
It’s wrong in many ways.
In many ways, I wasn’t smart, and it was an absurd and irrational behavior.
But Olivia made that decision as if she had been forced into the hands of a third party of hers. She fell down
And.
Olivia was also aware of that fact.
“… That’s right. Marin is fine. To me, it looks fine.”
Marin watched all the videos that Olivia was suspicious of.
When examining her like that, Olivia couldn’t find anything wrong.
If so, there are two possibilities.
There is no problem with the video Marine watched.
Or, there is a problem with yourself who can’t find something strange in the strange Marine.
If so, the conclusion is clear.
“You mean I have a problem.”
“… To me, something must have happened.”
Olivia sighed, she said, sweeping up her proud long blonde hair.
* ***
Olivia was vaguely aware that something strange had happened to her.
No, that’s strange… It’s too much to say.
She felt a simple sense of incongruity, or a sense of alertness stemming from her intuition as a veteran hero who had many experiences.
Then, in order to relieve her sense of incongruity, she used her subordinates as her test bed.
Using her subordinates as a test bed.
This itself, Olivia herself, thinks it is an absurd and unreasonable decision.
Because if there’s really a problem with the video, she’s taking a competent underling with her.
Although she is a typical tyrant-style boss who doesn’t treat her subordinates as human beings.
But anyway, as she is a competent person, she is a person who knows how to differentiate between efficient and inefficient choices.
And Olivia ‘The invisible hand’She inevitably became even, feeling a transient invisible pressure.
But.
This ‘invisible hand’.
The identity of that ‘special power’ that made her make this inefficient and unreasonable choice.
Someone else, not someone else’s strength or desire――That is his own 『Magic』.
“…”
Talk talk talk talk
Olivia had a screen displayed on her favorite tablet PC, and was tapping her desk with the tip of the tablet pen in her hand.
It is her habit when she feels impatient, and she, who usually doesn’t take more than two minutes to think about something, is now very much cornered to the extent that she clings to one thing for more than 10 minutes and allocates her thoughts.
On the screen of her tablet that she had open, there were a lot of “Scenarios” She had written down just in case.
Among them, the part that Olivia highlighted with a fluorescent color is as follows.
『… Some kind of In case of mental attack, mental control, or something that causes mental confusion.”
『In this case, Olivia will surely realize her own sense of incongruity.』
『As an example of realizing a sense of incongruity――』
One of the things written that way included acts such as the irrational and inefficient use of her subordinates, just like now.
“Whoa…”
Olivia sighs again.
Although she thinks it’s so out of the blue and nonsense.
Olivia was able to intuitively realize that the current situation had flowed according to the scenario written on this tablet.
Even though she doesn’t like it, she realizes that the absurd and unreasonable decision she made to use her subordinate as a test bed, forced by an ‘invisible force’, was because it flowed according to the scenario she had written down.
Not only this page you are looking at now, but dozens of pages back and forth are lined with such memos.
These are all things that Olivia wrote down as ‘insurance’ in case.
She was able and imaginative, and for a very long time remembered all the dangers and accidents that might befall her.
Then, for each critical situation, she pre-assigned a “Scenario” That could avoid the worst.
That is, this memo page opened right now is one of them.
If the threat she imagined doesn’t come forever, that’s fine too. A little of her magic was wasted, but she has nothing else to lose.
But if even one of these comes, then it goes according to the “Scenario” She set in her dictionary… In any case, the crisis can be avoided.
This is the 『Insurance』 She has created for that purpose.
In order to write a 『Scenario』, You must consume the appropriate amount of magic power.
And this 『Insurance Page』, Which consists of dozens of scenarios, was written by her over several years.
Although she was unable to respond at all to things she could never have imagined, such as Rahe’s work.
But at least thanks to this insurance, Olivia was able to run only on the road to success in everything except Rahe.
And this time again.
Before she makes her biggest blunder… Like this again, I try to save her.
“Really… What happened.”
With a sigh, she buried her body deep into the sofa.
At least it seems certain that she is suffering from some kind of mental attack.
Since the scenario was activated in that case, there is no doubt that this is true.
‘The question is who, how, why… I mean.’
HowRegarding, that video must be.
They are inflicting mental attacks through the video.
『When he uses his subordinates as a test bed, he will accurately hand over the cause of the mental attack to his subordinates』Called… Because I wrote the scenario like that.
However, there was no further clue to his own scenario.
It would have been nice if the scenario was written in more detail, but the more conditions were added, the more mana consumed exponentially.
‘Who… Could the culprit be [Mud]?’
The ones who shoot and send this video are the villains of the villain organization [Mud], With which she has a contract.
If so, these would be the prime suspects, but Olivia denied that idea.
It was because he had signed a contract with them using the 『Contract』 Written by applying Olivia’s magic.
The ‘contract’ she created with her magic is an absolute contract the moment she agrees and signs it.
And in her contract with [Mud], There was a clause that made it impossible for her to do any harm to her.
So there’s no way the people responsible for [Mud] Would have done something like this.
Because ‘causing harm’ also includes mental attacks.
It is physically impossible for them to do this.
‘Then there are about ■ possibilities.’
‘First, maybe—’
Olivia continues her thoughts.
Olivia accelerates her thinking.
She is a woman whose self-aggrandizement and self-affirmation are excessively bloated.
It is something close to a mental illness that anyone who is an Awakener suffers from.
All Awakened people have a defect somewhere in their minds, and in Olivia’s case, that mental defect is ‘her desire to show off’.
And she has always tried her best to fulfill her own desires, those desires to show off herself.
Although she is an arrogant and arrogant woman who does not know failure.
She said yes, but she has never been lazy to settle for her talent.
In addition to her talent, as a result of working tirelessly on her own, she has consistently built up achievements to the extent that she will surely achieve her own desires.
In other words, she is both the ultimate talent and the ultimate hard worker.
This fact can be said to be an unfortunate story for Villain 13, who must be somewhere.
‘—Thoughts.’
‘I have to think.’
‘What should I do. Let’s not be quick to judge.’
‘I can’t help what happened. But what you have to do is, calmly think… All I have to do is carefully resolve the current situation.’
She’s not blindly angry at the fact that she’s been victimized.
It’s not that I’m impatient with the fact that I don’t even know when the player was taken away.
As Olivia always did, she was thinking calmly and trying to get through her difficulties.
At the end of her thinking calmly.
Her bright brain will soon come up with the ‘best way’ to break the current situation, which won’t take long…
Number 13 is unfortunate.
Number 13 is truly unfortunate.
If Olivia had been a little more incompetent, if she had been, or if she had been a woman who tried a little less.
If only she was simply an arrogant and lazy woman who relied on talent.
If so, his plan would have gone ahead without any problems.
However, to the extent that he failed to do so, the human number 13 could be said to be truly unfortunate…
