━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Under the leadership of their grand elder, the top-level fighters of the Nightingale clan were swiftly dispatched to take care of the home minister of Carmen. None of them knew, however, that the home minister had already contacted the president by this time, and the two were somberly discussing how to deal with the 'conspiracy' of the Gray Wolfe. "To be honest, I still believe that the internal turmoil within the Gray Wolfe is real." The president…

573 Brave, or Foolish? ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Sam and Noelle's strategy for 'success' in Carmen was actually quite straightforward and uncomplicated, which was probably a good thing. After all, many of their predecessors with complex and sophisticated plans had failed spectacularly in the past. Survive. Not taking Jasper and Ginny's 'alliance' into account, the possibility of generating profits from Carmen was really too low, and there was no reason for any of them to expect…

572 Easy Way Out ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ It didn't take long for the leader of the Nightingale clan to pick up the phone, but in response to the home minister's enthusiastic greeting, he could only awkwardly maintain his silence. Normally, he would have been more than ecstatic to cooperate directly with the home minister, but… 'Shit, with the elders already breathing down my neck now that both of my recent plans have backfired, am I really in a position to take another…

571 Opportunity ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Although the quality and source of the video were quite questionable, the audio included remained loud and clear. And with a certain organization fanning the flames, it quickly spread throughout Carmen like an uncontrollable wildfire. Naturally, while some people were quick to praise the police chief who brought the criminals to justice as the protector of the public and an ideal heroine, most were fully focused on being outraged at the…

570 Revelation ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ When the people of Carmen first heard about the White Deer Corporation spreading its wings over their country, their expectations were actually quite low. It wasn't that they looked down on the White Deer, though. With Emilia's current level of popularity in Carmen, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that at least one in every ten in a random crowd here would turn out to be one of her fans. And even if the corporation was technically being…

569 Change of Pace ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ "Hi, baby! Did you miss me?!" To her credit, the gray-haired girl was only slightly taken aback by the childish face on the other side of the screen before she shook her head in amusement. Fortunately, no one else could snoop in on their conversation, or they would definitely label her as a pervert who liked to be called baby by girls much younger than herself. Just knowing that 'the thought didn't bother her as much as it should'…

568 Mother-Daughter Relationship?! ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Meanwhile, Emilia and her 'manager' finally arrived at the freshly acquired hotel about twenty miles away from the port town, and after dragging the 'little girl' to her assigned room, the older woman could only reluctantly stop trying to hammer the importance of staying within the sights of 'adults' all the time into her mascot's astonishingly thick skull. 'Speaking of which…' The manager stared at the shorter girl…

567 Strings Attached ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ In contrast to what most people would expect, Carmen's administrative systems were actually quite efficient in doing what they were actually designed for, and it only took around an hour from the initial report by the police chief of the port town for the higher-ups to become fully aware of the situation. An emergency video conference was called almost immediately, and everyone 'invited' could only join in a panic. "What…

566 Credibility ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Furious as she was at her charge, Emilia's 'manager' had only been able to force herself to calm down and contain her anger to the best of her ability. But when someone took the initiative to present their face for a good smacking so she could vent her anger, who was she to refuse? Under the stunned gaze of both the chief of police and Emilia, the lady stomped over to the delirious kidnapper like a woman on a mission before smacking her…

565 Adorably Infuriating ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Watching the expressions of the police chief alternate between disbelief and understanding, Emilia couldn't help but hum thoughtfully. 'Should I help her justify it, or will she be able to do it on her own?' Just as the crimson-haired girl was wondering so, however, the chief of police already seemed to have come to a decision as she nodded. "You did a good job, uh, Emi." With the speed at which the lady justified a teenager…
