"...It seems I need to work even harder!"
Chuckling with such a sigh, Aozaki Touko stood up and walked out of the room. The letter in her hand was tossed into the air, then suddenly ignited, burning completely into a ball of flame.
She still had many researches unfinished, especially regarding the creation of the Rozen Maiden, which had now reached a critical point.
She believed that soon, the prototypes of all the Rozen Maiden would be completed… Berlin, the capital of Germany.
The werewolves who had emerged from the primeval forest disembarked from the plane, following a silver-haired, red-eyed man to a fleet of cars that had been waiting for a long time.
Then, under the curious gaze of people at the airport, the motorcade slowly drove towards the city center.
"...Can you explain our mission in detail?"
Looking at the towering buildings outside the window, the Werewolf Leader named Hadon turned his head and said to the man with the strange scent: "At least, give us a general impression, so we don't end up like headless chickens!"
"It shouldn't be difficult for you!"
The Homunculus from Einzbern spoke in an elegant and calm tone: "The place you are going is a pharmaceutical company called 'Umbrella', under Miss Aozaki's banner!"
"The mission content is also very simple, which is to provide security services for Umbrella, and to keep out all unauthorized and ill-intentioned individuals!"
"If you discover a Mage intrusion, you can choose to kill them directly!"
After a brief introduction, he fell silent.
Seeing this, Hart leaned back in his seat, looking at his reflection in the glass window—a face with a fierce aura. Although he looked very unapproachable, at least he didn't appear to be non-human.
Moreover, his appearance did look very intimidating, and as security to scare people, it was absolutely no problem.
"A pharmaceutical company... what kind of medicine can it sell?"
The Werewolf Leader then asked the Homunculus.
"A new type of anti-cancer drug!"
Without showing any impatience, the Homunculus calmly explained, "This is a special medicine developed by Lady Aozaki Touko, and it has a very significant effect on cancer."
"...Cancer... what is that?"
Hearing the unfamiliar term, the Werewolf Leader looked utterly confused.
"Hmm... it's roughly a cellular pathology, uncontrolled, not participating in human coordination, cells that grow without restraint. It's one of the diseases that humans currently cannot solve!"
Listening to the Homunculus's explanation, the Werewolf Leader nodded slightly, "Hmm... I still don't quite understand, but anyway, it's very powerful, right!"
"...Understanding it that way is also fine!"
The Homunculus looked at the Werewolf Leader with a subtle gaze.
"Haha... I really can't keep up with the times~"
The Werewolf Leader chuckled somewhat awkwardly, then lost the desire to speak, silently looking at the scenery outside the window, as if the world outside had suddenly become full of charm.
Just in this quiet atmosphere.
The motorcade stopped in front of a luxurious building... at night.
On the building opposite the Umbrella Corporation,
A woman in a trench coat calmly watched the Umbrella Corporation.
Her mission was to steal the 'anti-cancer drug' formula, and at the same time, confirm that the medicine did not contain any magic components.
"Is this the place... I hope the security isn't too tight!"
The woman named 'Natalia Kaminski' watched the moving watch on her wrist, then quickly and decisively left her black suitcase behind.
She was a hunter who acted for bounties, and the bounty for this mission was ten million US dollars.
Furthermore, it was a bounty offered by multiple forces simultaneously, which meant that if this mission succeeded, she could immediately acquire a huge sum of money, never having to worry about finances again in her life.
— — — — The clock hand moved to twelve o'clock.
"...The surveillance system was hacked into so easily, the security doesn't seem to be very strict!"
Natalia Kaminski jumped down from the ventilation duct, then took a pistol from her waist, advancing towards her destination with increasing vigilance.
The progress so far had been too smooth, which instead gave her a bad premonition.
"That succubus scent of yours... we smelled it before you even came in!"
Suddenly, a cold voice rang out.
Immediately, pairs of glowing green eyes lit up in the dark corridor, and werewolves emerged from the darkness, surrounding Natalia, their bestial killing intent locking onto her.
"...This is terrible!"
"Don't kill me, I surrender."
Natalia gave a bitter smile, then decisively raised her hands in surrender.
Although she was confident in her combat prowess, she didn't think she could defeat a group of werewolves. She wasn't some superhero from a story; she was just an ordinary bounty hunter.
"..."
The Werewolf Leader's gaze was cold. After a moment of silence, he said, "Capture her... then hand her over to Lady Aozaki for judgment!"
As he finished speaking, two werewolves stepped out to restrain Natalia, then took her to the communication room and dialed Einzbern's phone.
