Introduction

Railien looked keenly at the man in front of him. He looked to be thirty or so. He had sharp eyes that seemed to stare at one's soul. His lips curled up into a smile, making Railien flush. 

"Um... Hello, n... Nice... Nice to meet you too, my name is... Um... Ow... You already know my name! Um it's... It's nice to meet you!"

Railien said, turning her head away to hide her now extremely flushed face. 

"I literally made a fool of myself just now! Oh my, this is so embarrassing!"

She said, making attempts to cover her face. Volt let out a chuckle and moved closer to her. 

"How adorable! You are quite interesting. I see why the boss wants to keep you. As I said before, we are going to have much fun together. I hope you are as hard working as you look, Railien!"

The words from Volt's mouth made Railien turn around to sit on the bed. She lowered her head even more in attempts to cover her reddening face. 

"He clearly wants me to feel even more embarrassed than I already am! Such a dangerous man! I should stay away from him in the future, for my own good!"

" You don't have to be afraid of me, I promise, I don't bite. At least not always! "

He said, letting out a loud laugh that sent shivers down Railien. She clenched on to her clothes. 

"Now on serious matters, I will inform you about everything and anything you need to know about your job. I will also assign people to assist you while you are still adjusting. I hope in the future you can do a great job, Railien. "

As he spoke, his voice became more urgent and firm, causing the flush on Railien's face to disappear gradually until she regained her composure. He explained everything in detail, receiving nods and yeses from Railien, affirming her comprehension of the instructions. 

"This is a watch from the organization. It will be your main communication tool. It will also measure your progress and inform you and the boss about your physical health and improvement. That means no slacking off on the job! "

He said as he handed Railien a black watch as thin as a strap. 

"To use it, just tap on it so that it can recognize you as the owner. "

Railien extended her right hand to receive the watch. She then put it on and taped on it as instructed. Suddenly, a blue light emitted from the watch and sent a holo screen floating above the watch. The holo screen displayed a bunch of codes, then went blank. In the next moment, it displayed all of Railien's information. 

"Now, follow me please. "

He said as he turned and walked towards the door. Railien stood up and followed him out the door. As soon as they walked out, Railien realized that they had mysteriously walked into another room. The room was equipped with computers and projectors. The computers were arranged in four rows and infront of each computer was a person. The people seemed to be immersed in their work, not turning their heads even for the slightest distraction. 

"A while ago, this room was definitely not here,,but just now we..."

Railien said in a low voice as she tilted her head to look at Volt, expecting to get an answer of some sort. Volt didn't respond. Instead, he kept walking, heading towards a room in the corner of the room. Railien said nothing and followed behind. As they were entering the room, Volt paused on his steps. 

"It is more convenient this way, rather than walk out and let everyone stare at you questionably, won't you pick this kind of rout too?"

He said, then continued moving forward. As far as he was concerned, the existence of such a mode of transportation was none of Railien's business, but he figured 'why not give her mysterious answers and see if she would get worked up or something '. 

Contrary to Volt's thoughts, Railien followed behind him quietly, as if he hadn't said anything. Volt smiled. 

"I guess she really is interesting. "

In the room they had walked in, about five people were gathered. As soon as they entered, the people who were initially sitting stood up and greeted Volt in a formal way. 

Volt introduced Railien to the group and assigned her there. It turned out that they were the main team working for Mr. Ron. Railien was placed under the care of one of the members named Luit. He was the team's sniper. Apparently, Railien had to start from long range before she could come closer to the targets. 

"Come on, a pretty girl like you shouldn't cry like this, you will ruin your eyes! "

Railien said as she walked into a half-lit room. In the room, a girl sat tied up on a chair in the center of the room. The girl was drenched in tears. She stopped crying and yelling as soon as Railien walked in. 

From the girl's expression, one could tell how terrified she was. Her body was trembling all over, and she was gasping for air as if she was suffocating.

"P... Ple... Please, please big siz, don't kill me, please! I'll do anything! Anything at all, please!"

The girl said in a weak and trembling voice. She looked at Railien as she got closer and closer to her. She then squatted before the girl, looked her in the eyes and smiled. It was a heart-warming smile that made the girl calm down a bit. 

"Hey, hey, it's alright. I am not gonna hurt you. I just need to borrow some things from you. Technically, my friend here will be the one borrowing. I promise you, you don't have to cry so much. It's going to be over soon! Before you know it, you'll be peacefully resting!"

She said as her lips curled to a grind. 

"No! Please, I am begging you! Don't do this please..."
