━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Although the leader of Blue Hydra and his lackeys usually liked to call their eight strongest members 'super weapons', in Emilia's opinion, there really wasn't much 'super' about them at all. Not to mention that none of them had any special abilities, even their strength was not much to look at. This was especially so when compared to the people Emilia usually dealt with. Whether it was Noelle or Dixie, either of them could easily wipe the floor with the…

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Although the boss of the 'Blue Hydra' gang was caught completely off-guard and had his face smashed in by Emilia's knee, the crimson-haired girl was actually able to control her speed and strength pretty well in front of the cameras. After all, while revealing some of her strength would be great at dazzling and inspiring people, too much of it would just leave them stunned and terrified. She ignored the enraged screaming of the now bloody-mouthed gang leader,…

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Although she'd already discovered them, Emilia didn't have to go through the trouble of preparing the rest of the 'crew' for the incoming wave of 'actors', and it wasn't just because she was confident in her ability to handle them. With Penny's 'helpers' having placed appropriate equipment along the way, the manager ended up receiving the details of the 'second team' well in advance, including not only where they would be coming from and their numbers, but…

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ The location of the shoot wasn't that far from one of Carmen's more populous cities, and needless to say, the gang that was able to control that area with an iron fist already had a fierce reputation deeply ingrained into the hearts of most common folk. In its infancy, its members used to refer to themselves as 'Team Hydra', but over time as their ambitions grew, they changed their gang's name to 'Blue Hydra'. Naturally, this not only reflected their desire…

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ "Eh? They really agreed to pay us???" "T-That's right, boss. The woman from the White Deer's side said that as long as we agree to not cause trouble for their team for the next two weeks, they'll pay us the full amount in advance." Although they had long since been confident that the White Deer would give in to their demands sooner or later, none of them had expected them to do so this easily. After all, with their previous track record, shouldn't they have…

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Unaware of her partner's 'rebellious' thoughts, the crimson-haired girl remained focused on the current task at hand, and it didn't take her long to come up with a good solution. Her plan with the gangsters was actually quite simple. With the little credibility her new persona currently had, it was naturally impossible to 'convince' anyone to let her do whatever she wanted in a situation they considered 'unsafe'. In that case, wasn't it a simple matter of…
-
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ It was both the overconfidence of the gangsters as well as the fierce reputation that they had established in the minds of the common folk that made Emilia come up with the idea of using them as a stepping stone. After all, it was only by solving problems that the local government had 'failed' to handle properly that she would be able to win everyone's hearts. And it was only once she succeeded in doing so that she could safely move on to the next step of her…

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Although the higher-ups in the White Deer Corporation were vaguely aware of the true 'intentions' of those at the top, the steps that had to be taken still couldn't be skipped, and the hoops they had to jump through, they had to make the effort to jump through anyway, no matter how pointlessly difficult it seemed. It was impossible for them to still not understand how Noelle handled 'slackers' after so many years, after all. If someone so much as tried to…

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Emilia was naturally pleased to hear about the infighting within the last remaining loyalists on the side of Alexander's father, and did her best to fan the flames as much as she could without being discovered. On one side were those who had been involved in the assassination attempt, including many of the upper echelon of the faction and their subordinates. And on the other side were the ones who still supported Alexander's father, as well as those who were…
-
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Even if the influence that Alexander's father had over the Gray Wolfe Corporation had declined to only a fraction of what it used to be just a few years ago, it still wasn't to be underestimated. While many had switched sides to favor the twins while others tried to fish in troubled waters, there still remained more than a few staunch loyalists who firmly supported him with all their might. And with so many people having heard the unsuppressed gunshots, and…
