Millennium Tension

[Permission confirmed. Eol issued permission to--]

A sudden confirmation popped out of the holographic screen on the panel. It was clear what was written there. The permission for the meeting had been granted to Aizen's smart-pen.

"See? Even Eol knows me and wants to see me. Now, your job is done. You can go back to your work, Neilie. Thank you for the short tour, hahaha..." Aizen laughed with a smug expression. He purposely annoyed the tour guide.

"You, what did you just do? Even Eol granted your request…" Neilie was astonished as she watched the confirmation appear on the smart-pen in Aizen's hand and the holographic screen on the wall panel.

"Hehe, as you said earlier, general matters for the high society and confidential matters for the public. It is difficult for you to understand us." Ana drew closer to Aizen's side. She was present to create a little distance between the tour guide and her Aizen. Neilie's task was over.

"Ahem, what are you saying, young master. I will still be on duty to guide you on your tour for another hour. So, how can I just leave you, dear guests. Let me accompany you to the fourth and fifth level areas." Neilie changed the instant she cleared her throat.

She shamelessly requested to go along as she also wanted to visit areas she had never visited even to date. A chance came unexpectedly, and she needed to make the most of it.

"No, no, that's okay. I know you already want to go back to your job, so we won't bother you anymore. Eol will be on our Aizen-sama smart-pen as our tour guide." Axel wagged her index finger with a light smile. She came to Aizen's side along with Yifei and Lian.

"Ah, not really. My presence is not only for the guide but also for the companion on tour. Yes, that is, my presence is to present the interaction and visualization of what can make your tour amazing." Neilie quickly came up with an excuse that sounded plausible but was somewhat inconsequential.

"Hmm? Is that so? I don't think you've been to the level four area, let alone level five. So, what do you want to do by coming with us to areas outside of your access rights, Neilie?" Aizen still wanted to play a little with this silly woman.

"Ahem, yes, I am a good guide. I answer what you ask and lead to what you want. Besides, there is much more. If you want to go west, then I will not point you in any other direction. My one wish is to see a top tier lab for artificial human manufacture like myself." Neilie put her hand over her upper chest.

"Eh? Aren't the level four areas only for artificial humans at tier 9 and 10? You're not produced at the EO Technology Center but at the Elden Manufacturing Laboratory." Lian declared mercilessly. It was an invisible critical hit that struck the tour guide.

"Ah, ugh... That's right, but! I also want to see the lab where artificial human girls like you were born. I want to know, want to know why tier 8 to tier 9 is too far apart, not to mention tier 10. Please let me come there with you." Neilie became a little sulk and whimper. She asked to be invited even though she didn't allow Aizen to come to the mentioned areas a moment ago.

"Hmm? You just want to know? Okay, let me tell you a little about the moment when my sisters and I were born. When we woke up, we were already in a tube filled with fluid--" Yifei shared a little story for the sulking girl. She did so after getting Aizen's permission.

For the next two minutes, Yifei finally finished telling how she was born to serve her master with her sisters. However, the short story represented Alpha and Yifei themselves. Neilie just didn't know.

"So, like that. Now, you already know about how Tier 10 Artificial Humans were born by their master's wish. So, we will excuse ourselves first. Bye-bye, Neilie." Yifei waved her hand and smiled mischievously.

After that, she immediately caught up with her group as soon as the mechanical gate opened with the advanced security system level.

As for Neilie, she was left behind without courtesy. Aizen didn't invite her to come along and instead threw her away after she was unnecessary!?

"Uhh! How dare they, so evil, meanie. What can I know from that story? They didn't ask me and dumped me. Hmph! Is this what it feels like to be given false hopes and end up disappointed?" Neilie stomped her feet on the floor in annoyance. She could only see the mechanical gate to the level four area closed.

After she was left alone and content to swear with a series of nonsensical words to blow off some steam, she could only leave there to get back to her original job. Somehow, today made her so annoyed and wanted to be angry, and it was thanks to the group of the young master earlier.

"Aizen, Aizen, hmm... Let me take a look at the data on you, hehe..." Neilie giggled but a bit creepy voice as she accessed the Intelligence Agency network using her smart-pen.

It was a bit unfortunate. Neilie ended up not much different from the man with the thick mustache in the showroom a few hours ago. However, something was a little different from her response… She was somewhat suspicious about that annoying young master's background.

Well, no matter what, she also couldn't find out any more in-depth information than what was shown on her hologram screen with only her permissions. She shook her head and put the thought aside. One thing she knew, the earlier young master was not an ordinary upper-class person.

"Wow, it's savage to just dump the girl you gave me hope. That's false hope." Ana could not help but giggle with amusement. She said it was not aimed at any particular person, but for all of them.

"Well, she is so silly and real. I admire the ability of this world to mass-manufacture artificial humans. They are no different from real humans." Aizen slightly smiled while shaking his head.

His brief time as the young master and his girlfriends annoying the tour guide was quite entertaining. They played the role of the bullies.

"Eits, it's just as ordinary as human beings in general. They are only given the blessing of excellence in memory, talent, and abilities set with prime bodies. If you want, we can multiply our auxiliary units." Axel immediately added with a small rebuttal.

"Um, ahh, our high-class auxiliary units are exactly like humans if we ignore things like spirit and soul. Their insides are also partially made of advanced machines with the same mechanisms as the original bodies. Broadly speaking, auxiliary units win for many things, but from the perspective of life, then artificial humans win." Aizen swiftly turned the topic of conversation into a conclusion.

"Oh yeah? Hmm, maybe we need to go to the level five area first and learn how to make Tier 10 artificial humans and their resources. That way, we can make our auxiliary unit even more perfect for serving us in our little world, hehe..." Ana covered her mouth with grace. She made a straightforward statement that she thought was a good thing.

"Hmm, we can do that. Our goal is to the deep underground floor which has almost no information to be found." Aizen also had the same opinion. He agreed right away with Ana's proposal.

At that time, Ana looked at the surveillance cameras. The ones that were always watching them and spying on their movements, including their conversation. Instantly, she grinned as she put her hand on her cheek. "Nee, you overheard our conversation, Eol? Bad you, eavesdropping on our master's conversation with his girlfriends. We will come directly to the exclusive room that you prepared for us. We allow you to entertain us, hehe..."

Ana said that with an expression like a villain. Even so, Aizen only left Ana with what she wanted without forbidding her at all.

Despite that, the surveillance cameras suddenly ceased, no longer focused on Aizen and his girls. Eol didn't want to admit it, but he also didn't want to further support this dangerous group's existence.

All the security systems were returned to pay attention only to their surroundings and treat Aizen's group like ordinary people passing by.

"Heh." Ana sneered lightly. Then, she went to the exclusive elevator with her group. One of the easiest accesses that could take them to a level five area and the only elevator could take them deep underground from this building.

While Aizen and his girls were taking the elevator down to the level four area, in the blue room in the level five area, Eol looked a little confused and complicated. He asked in wonder whether his guests had noticed the exclusive room that had been prepared for them.

Eol didn't know why, but his core system warned him not to act rashly. He could make them angry. If he did that, then he could only perish with the capital city of this world at that time. Therefore, he must act with more caution and care.
