I was bored so I made a secret organization

Chapter 245: Above the Cloud 20

Fuu as expected, she was getting close to me because she had some ulterior objectives. Well, her reason was so clich that I let out my true feelings in the middle, but all is well.

Naomi leaned her back against the seats backrest as she put her hands together.

Everything went as she had expected.

It didnt take a hard time to think that anyone who approached her was someone with ulterior motives. Even she could guess that Eveline was approaching her to take advantage of her position.

Well, only a few people truly approached me without any ulterior motives. Like Mischa or Mischa wait. Surely its not only Mischa, right?

Naomi put her hand on her chin, thinking about her subordinates.

Lets see Rekka joined me because I saved Anna. The same applied to Hyun-Woo. Chi joined because she seems to hate the Esper Association and needs my help. The same also applied to Melaine.

She began to list the name of her subordinates. Her expression turned into something really funny as she noticed that almost all her subordinates joined her organization with ulterior motives.

It was not bad, but she knew that only Mischa genuinely approached her without something in mind. Even Anna and Dan-Bi were with her because of circumstances.

Topaz wanted to collect information about me. Millie was controlled by the mind controller freak and is now still in custody in our base. It seems that every person has their own agenda, huh? She chuckled, amused because she realized something really dumb.

The Esper Association surely also had its own goal. Naomi also knew about it.

Avos had his own goal and tried to reach it by using everything he had. The executives in the Esper Association, too, surely had their own goals for joining Avos, whether it was for their own benefit or their closest persons benefit.

Melaine and the one called Angella seemed to join the Esper Association long ago because of their goals too. And then, they betrayed them because that goal was impossible to reach. Or maybe, the Esper Association had destroyed their initial reason for joining.

Well, well, it seems that I need to be careful so my subordinates dont betray me. Naomi stood up from her seat and stretched her hands. Now then, when will the meeting be held?

She walked to the door and opened it. The hallway was quiet; no one was walking around. Curious to find out why no one was in the hallway, she enhanced her hearing. However, when she did so, Naomi heard someone talking inside the room at the end of the hallway.

That room was the Generals room, and the ones talking inside were two familiar voices belonging to her father and Eveline alongside one unfamiliar man's voice. She guessed that voice belonged to the General.

Because it was rude eavesdropping on someone that she didnt know, she had heard enough, and it seemed like Eveline was ordered to judge her character and intelligence. Eveline reported that she was a genius or something, which made her get a bit embarrassed.

Shes exaggerating. She muttered in a low voice as she turned around, walking down the hallway toward the stairs on the other side of the hallway. Well, lets just check this building while waiting for the meeting. Surely, my father will contact me later.

***

Just a few minutes after Naomi walked around the building and greeted almost every person inside the building to show that she was their new Lieutenant-General, her father contacted her that the meeting would be held shortly and asked her to go to the third floor to meet the General.

Naomi answered with a simple OK and then proceeded to the third floor. She was rather curious about this General, the person who stood at the second highest position in this country, only below Ingrid, the Marshal.

Technically, he was also Naomis superior. But, as Ingrid announced that Naomi was to serve directly under the Marshal, the General had no authority to order her. In other words, they stood almost in the same position; only their official rank was the one that made them different from each other.

In addition, Naomi had no power to command the military. So the General still had a higher standing than her in the Military.

When she arrived on the third floor, she noticed three people standing right in front of the Generals office room, just exiting it, as the girl closed the door.

They seemed to notice Naomis presence as one of them, her father, turned around and waved his hand.

Here, Naomi!

Naomi nodded subtly as she approached them. She glanced at the man with the same stature as his father with a tall stout body. He was really similar to her father; only his hair was gray in some parts. He also had six medals on his chest, proof of a veteran.

When he turned toward her, a feral smile appeared on his face. She had seen such a smile often. Naomi recognized such a smile as a smile of interest toward someone with power.

And she was correct. The General crossed his arms and greeted her as she stopped right in front of him.

So youre Lieutenant-General Akasa Naomi? Its nice to meet you. I am the General of Germanys Military, Nicolas Emmerich.

Hearing her introduction, Naomi noticed that his last name was similar to Eveline. She glanced at her, and Eveline nodded a little to confirm her suspicion.

Ah, I see So they are father and daughter too, huh?

She smiled sweetly as she looked up a little at the Generals face.

The General was tall, a little taller than her. He was really humongous. She thought that her new stature was already a giant, but it seemed like there were still a few people taller than her.

Its nice to meet you too, General Nicolas. As you know, my name is Akasa Naomi. And I have the honor to be appointed as the Lieutenant-General even when I did nothing for this country yet. I hope we can get along well.

And so, two people with the highest position in Germanys Military met each other.
