Chapter 208.2. Karen’s New Workplace

-Karen’s POV-

Despite considering herself ordinary, Karen evaluates herself as having a charming and adorable personality, which she rates quite highly.

“Oh, by the way, I heard you forgot your lunch, right, Lug-chan? I brought a bento box, and there’s too much, so would you like to eat together?”

Furthermore, Karen has mastered the ultimate secret technique of the Katou family.

Namely, Rolled Omelette, Nikujaga, and Karaage. She captures people’s hearts through the stomach with these 3 great secret techniques.

Could Polini be the guardian or mentor of the young Lug?

If Karen has lunch with Lug, perhaps Polini will accompany them.

Surreptitiously observing Polini’s actions out of the corner of her eye, Karen presents herself as a kind and gentle senior to Lug.

Karen is tired of her kunoichi life.

At 15 years old, she wants to marry a wealthy person.

She desires wealth and support.

She knows that chances like this don’t come often in life, so she wants to make a preemptive move before Christmas.

She’s too young?

The understanding of how important it is to have a good start in life is lost on her.

“Well, discuss it with Lug-chan. Now, let me guide you to my workplace.”

However, Polini doesn’t seem to care and enters the research institute without hesitation.

“Darn it, didn’t work out.”

Karen clicks her tongue. There might still be other wealthy people in this research institute.

Those who held shares at the time of establishment could be extremely wealthy!

First, she will showcase her homemade rolled omelet from the lunchbox to attract the attention of eligible men.

Thinking to herself, “I’m like Diaochan”, Karen is a meek and obedient girl who is good at cooking. Gramma said men always like that kind of girl.

“Oh, man, this is so delicious! From tomorrow on, you better make mine too! Yum yum!”

Somehow, the bratty kid munches on a rice ball.

“Huh? …Why did you do that?! I made it round so anyone could share it!”

Without her noticing, the bratty kid took the lunchbox from Karen’s bag and ate it. She’s making a mess with rice grains around her mouth, devouring the rolled omelet in one bite.

“Y-You dare eat someone else’s lunch without permission! You brat, where do you get your audacity from?!”

“What belongs to the underclassman belongs to the upperclassman, and what belongs to the upperclassman belongs to Lug-chan, right? Gugyaaa!”

“We’re almost like classmates!”

Growling at the bratty kid while biting them with an iron claw, Karen shouts in anger.

The bratty kid squirms and struggles, but Karen won’t let go.

What’s wrong with this kid’s head?!

“You guys, aren’t you coming? Countess Takano is already waiting for you.”

Sighing at the two who don’t follow, Polini returns and informs them.

Hearing those words, the two instantly stop their comedy act and tremble uncontrollably.

“Hyaah! We’ll do it immediately! No, I mean, please spare us!”

“Aba-baba, if she’s there, let me know! Let’s go immediately! Follow me, underclassman!”

With a burst of energy, Lug dashes forward and rushes into the building. Karen nods and follows along.

Thinking about the Countess waiting for them, their bodies tremble with fear.

The bratty kid seems to feel the same way, her eyes glistening like she’s peering into an abyss.

Feeling both fear and fascination in those captivating eyes, their souls become entangled in a spider’s web, like a beautiful butterfly’s fate of being ensnared and killed.

Of course, the beautiful butterfly refers to Karen.

The building’s interior had cream-colored walls, and the corridors were illuminated by magical light. A reception desk was located next to an entrance gate where armed security guards were stationed.

“Here is your entry card. Please follow me as we head to the same location as Lug.”

“Yes, understood.”

Karen covered her mouth with a clenched fist as she swayed her body. She portrayed herself as a timid and meek girl.

She intended to use the excuse that her earlier roughness was just an act for a comedy routine.

Unbeknownst to her, the commotion she had caused had already been witnessed by others. She would later be rumored to wear a mask of innocence.

Unaware of what was to come, Karen stopped running and walked slowly.

The devil disguised as that girl may be frightening, but her plans were also important.

Observing Karen’s demeanor, Polini chuckled amusingly.

Karen, who was standing beside him, hunched her back and performed her nervous act. The brat named Lug had already run ahead, and although she couldn’t see her, she passed through several security gates and finally arrived.

“This place is where the latest technology is being researched, so please be careful about information leaks. Also, please don’t lose your ID card. It would be quite troublesome to handle afterward.”

“Yes, I promise I won’t lose it!”

Upon hearing the unsettling words, Karen straightened her spine and vigorously nodded her head up and down.

The increasingly calming tone of Polini’s voice only heightened her fear, so she vowed to keep her ID card with her at all times.

As the thick, metallic automatic doors opened, they revealed a spacious room with a girl sitting on a chair.

“Hello, Karen-san!”

“Countess Takano, it’s been a while.”

With silvery gray hair gently flowing and her ice-blue eyes sparkling with innocence, the girl greeted them with a lovely smile. Also careful not to stiffen her face, Karen returned the greeting.

She nervously approached, wondering why she was assigned to the magical tool research facility.
