Chapter 57
Seeing that Douma pretended not to understand his hints and did not consciously take up the task of obtaining the supernatural business license from the Supernatural Special Agents Division, Mori Ougai could only disappointingly put away the little bit of luck in his heart and take the initiative to attack.
Douma who really didn’t understand: …Why is this old fox staring at me without saying anything?!
"I asked Douma-kun to stay because I wanted to let him handle this matter." Moriowa paused for a moment, and when he didn't see Douma showing any resistance, he continued, "If Douma-kun, who is a transcendent, comes forward, it will be much easier for the Special Powers Division to talk."
After hearing this, Douma finally understood the hidden meaning behind Mori Ogai's words. Not to mention that he was not a real transcendent, Mori Ogai wanted to use his face to make the Supernatural Agent Division compromise. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Mr. Mori wants me to get a supernatural business license."
"That's right." Mori Ogai nodded, put away the smile on his face, and asked Douma's opinion in a serious manner: "I wonder if Douma-kun is willing to take on this mission."
If it were anyone else, Moriogai could give orders directly, but he couldn't be so simple and rough when dealing with Douma-kun. The Transcendents were not someone he could easily order around.
Strictly speaking, Douma-kun's social status in Japan is actually far higher than his.
At this moment, Mori Ogai has realized that it was a huge mistake for him to bring Douma into the port mafia. He can neither beat him nor suppress him. Douma has become a hot potato in his hands, making him restless every day.
Killing is impossible. Deep down, Mori Ougai still loves his country and cannot kill the Transcendent that the Japanese government has been waiting for so long. He can only suppress the surging murderous intent in his heart and try to drive him out of the port mafia, or secretly weaken the power of Douma's side.
Douma, the target, was completely unaware of the conspiracy and trickery that was constantly churning in Mori Ogai's mind.
Douma: Who would target a lazy person who has no ambition and just wants to get by? No one! (bushi)
Douma, whose self-awareness is a little bit biased, is still thinking about the pros and cons of this matter. In the end, he concluded that even if he took on this task and got the supernatural business license from the Supernatural Special Agent Department, it would not benefit him at all. It would just be a waste of his favors and face in the Japanese government.
However, Mori Ogai's words successfully opened the door to a new world for Douma, and his mind was instantly broadened.
Rather than agreeing to Mori Ogai's request and taking on the name of a Transcendent to get a supernatural business license, it would be better for him to contact the Japanese government privately and ask the Supernatural Secret Service to help him find the "book" in the name of a Transcendent.
Why should he go through so much trouble to find the "book" by himself, like looking for a needle in a haystack? It would be better to change the perspective and let the special agent department who finally got the "book" in the original book take the initiative to help find it and hand it to him. Moreover, this is not difficult to do, as long as he admits that he is a transcendent person.
Douma: The pattern opens.jpg
Douma, who had been trying to explain that he was not a transcendent, suddenly changed his mind and half-seriously rejected Mori Ogai's request: "Sorry, I don't like dealing with the authorities. Let's leave this matter to someone else."
Mori Ogai had actually expected Douma's rejection, so he wasn't too disappointed. He was in the mood to give Douma a soothing smile and said sensibly, "It's okay. If Douma-kun doesn't want to, I won't force you."
After dealing with Morio, Douma, who had opened the door to the new world, couldn't wait to say goodbye and leave.
After returning to the building that belonged to him, Douma carefully confirmed that there was no unnecessary surveillance in his office before taking out his mobile phone to convey his request to Shibuzawa Ryuhiko to meet with senior officials of the Japanese government.
Yes, Douma chose to let Shibuzawa Ryuhiko, whose stance was unclear, help him contact the top officials of the Japanese government, rather than the more legitimate but more guarded-against Special Forces Department.
On the other side, the indifference in Shibuzawa Ryuhiko's eyes disappeared instantly after receiving the news. His beautiful and fiery red eyes seemed to be flowing with scorching magma. After thinking for a moment, a mature and sexy voice rang out in the empty and lonely villa: "Do you...trust me, Lord Godson?"
Unlike Shibuzawa Ryuhiko's mistaken trust, Douma actually simply felt that it was safer to deal with his own defeated subordinates rather than the Psychic Special Agent Department, which had who knows how many hidden cards it had.
Douma: Between the two options of unknown and rookie, isn’t it natural for me to choose rookie?
Rookie Shibuzawa Ryuhiko: …
Douma, who has no conscience at all, doesn't care what Shibuzawa Ryuhiko thinks specifically, he just wants to get the result he wants.
And Shibuzawa Ryuhiko did not disappoint Douma's expectations. Almost the next second after receiving Douma's message, he conveyed Douma's request exactly as it was to the people above him.
The people who were in contact with Shibuzawa Ryuhiko, seeing that it was a Transcendent who wanted to meet them in person, did not dare to delay after weighing the pros and cons.
Japan really needs a local transcendent, and with the personal confirmation of "White Kirin" Shibuzawa Ryuhiko, they are 100% sure that Douma is a local transcendent. Naturally, they dare not neglect him, for fear that the meat in their bowl (cut off) Transcendent will defect to other countries in anger.
With this in mind, the Prime Minister, who soon received the news, readily agreed to the request for a meeting.
The reason why they didn't meet Douma in person before, but only sent their special powers to deal with him, was because they were not 100% sure that Douma was really a transcendent at that time.
If Douma is not a true transcendent, then it would be too cheap for them to personally go out and meet an ordinary psychic.
"No matter what, Lord Douma must be kept in Japan." After the Prime Minister responded to the news, he loosened his clenched fists, but his eyes, which had become a little cloudy due to aging, became more determined.
On the other hand, Douma had no idea about the mental activities of the Prime Minister, whom he had never met before. After receiving the news that Shibuzawa Ryuhiko had settled the matter, he put the matter aside for the time being. Anyway, the meeting was scheduled for a few days later, and there was no point in thinking about it more now.
Tongma, who had nothing to do for the moment, stretched out his arms leisurely, and ignored the pile of documents on the table without any reason or reason.

Thinking that he had been too busy recently and hadn't visited the kids for a long time, Douma, whose parental spirit suddenly awakened, decided to go and see how the kids were doing. After all, he had to fulfill his duties as a parent.
So, Yumeno Hisaku and Nakajima Atsushi, who hadn't seen Douma for a few days, welcomed their parents' greetings after a long absence: "How have you been recently? Have you two been good and obedient?"
The sesame dumpling with black skin inside and out, who only pretended to be pitiful in front of Douma, blinked his moist almond eyes innocently and said in a baby voice: "Yes, Kusaku will be good and obedient~"
The really good boy Nakajima Atsushi blushed and said hesitantly, "Yes...Yes, I am good."
If Douma didn't know Nakajima Atsushi's character clearly from his weak tone, he would have thought that the child was lying.
Facing two completely opposite little brats, Douma sighed in his heart. Being too sinister or too innocent is not a good thing. As a parent who is getting balder day by day, he really hopes that the personalities of these two little brats can be neutralized. That would be perfect.
Seeing his boss here, the assistant of the nanny Oda Sakuyuki, who had been in office for some time, naturally understood it as an inspection, and stood up to report: "Kusaku almost lost control three days ago, and I confiscated his cursed doll. Atsushi is very obedient and has studied hard. He is very good."
This wave of reading and writing reports and complaints deeply hurt the innocent Yumeno Hisasaku. His face immediately darkened, his light pink lips were pressed into a straight line, and he glared fiercely at the complainant Seiko Tasakunosuke. But when Douma looked over at him, he turned back into a little angel with a very sweet smile.
Yumeno Hisasaku's amazing face-changing skills amazed the good boy Nakajima Atsushi standing beside him, and he opened his mouth in surprise.
In fact, Douma, who had seen everything, stretched out his hand with amusement and rubbed the furry heads of the two little guys at the same time without distinguishing between them in order.
Although the two children have very different personalities, their past experiences have made them unable to resist being patted on the head by their overconfident parents, and they all look dazed and happy.
Douma stroked the little boy's fluffy head and turned to Oda Sakunosuke and said, "Sorry, Hisasaku's ability can get out of control easily, so I need you to be more careful."
"Ah, I see." Oda Sakunosuke nodded, looking at the two children with a very gentle look, and said sincerely, "They are all very good children."
Maybe it was because his boss asked him to take care of the children, but he seemed to have awakened his fatherly heart ahead of time.
The recent dragon war has affected a wide range of people, and many people have died as a result. At the same time, many children have become orphans with no one to take care of them. In order to prevent those poor children from starving to death on the streets, Oda Sakunosuke had no choice but to take the children home to take care of them.
Then, before he knew it, there were several more children in his family who needed him to raise. This put a lot of pressure on Oda Sakunosuke, who was no longer a killer and whose salary was meager, but he couldn't just leave it alone.
Noticing that Oda Sakunosuke seemed to be in a daze, Douma stretched out his hand and waved it in front of his eyes: "What are you thinking about?"
"No... nothing, I just thought of the children I adopted." Oda Sakunosuke told Douma without hiding the fact that he had adopted orphans.
Douma sincerely sighed, "You are a good person."
Oda Sakunosuke is indeed a rare good man in the academia, as he took all the orphans he picked up home and raised them well when the government didn't care.
Oda Sakunosuke, who was given the good guy card, just smiled and did not answer, thinking that how could he be a good guy when he was a killer with blood on his hands.
Suddenly, Oda Sakunosuke's eyes fixed, and he reached out and took off a locator from Douma's hair. His tone was as calm as ever: "Hmm, looks familiar."
"Dazai Osamu!"
