Editing Absolute Duo:Volume 4 Chapter 3 (section)

===Part 2===
“This is the thing you wanted…….?”

The Caucasian teenager---<<K>>, narrowed up his sharp eyes and directed it to a certain '''''object'''''.

The lean old man--<<Equipment Smith>> standing in front of <<K>> who was the one that called him, lifted the sides of his mouth and nodded.

“Correct. These are the external weapons for your <<Unit>> to wear…………but, I still need more time to complete it”

It will take 2 weeks including the testing phase-----those were the days the old man estimated.

He could then see the completion of the <<Unit>>.

However, it was still far from completion as the <<{{Furigana|Ell.Libel|God’s Destruction soldier}}>>

Then, what was the part needed for completion?

The answer was already made up in the old man’s mind and the step to reach there was already made; to add on, the next step was also decided.

“By the way, <<K>>-kun. What kind of business does Japan have with us? Don’t tell me, they were curious about this incomplete machine and wanted to see it”

The <<Equipment Smith>> sat down the chair while saying that.

“Just as you guessed………it’s a warning from the Board of Directors”

The organization <<K>> and the <<Equipment Smith>> was affiliated-----Gogmagog, was an illegal organization that does not exist in the public. 


That’s why, they have to restrain on strategies and actions that might bright the existence of the organization to light; even if those actions were seen by someone, if those were just small matters then, it could be buried into the darkness.

But however, the attack that was commenced 2 weeks ago----the <<Selection>> was a plan too large in scale.

Kouryou academy normally does not attract public eyes but, adding on with the frequent sounds of explosions, a part of the facility got burned and that turned into a giant bon fire, temporarily illuminating the dark night. It was only normal for this unusual incident to attract eyes since the academy was not on a far away and isolated island, even though it was surrounded by the sea.

However, even though the attack caused a commotion that might appear in the news; it was forgotten in the public world after a few days since----this incident occurred from a gas explosion and there was no one injured at all.

Another reason why the incident was forgotten was because a famous business company was found causing illegal transactions the next day.

The information manipulation was performed by, the Dawn Organization by the front, and Gogmagog at the back.

Even though their motives were in agreement, it was in a sense ironic that both the organizations were joining forces to conceal the attack.

“They said [It’s true that we told you to let us know on how amazing the <<Unit>> is. However, don’t burden it with dangers of exposing the organization’s existence to light]. Because of that, they warned us to avoid personal actions from now on” 

“Fuhahaha, what a laugh. So it means that I am sitting on a rocking chair huh. Those useless bunches, even though I have been blessing them with the <<Power>> I made”

Just like what the old man---Edward said, the organization’s force expanded a lot in these 10 years thanks to the many weapons that he invented.

The board still gave Edward a warning even though they put his achievements into thought.

It was a decision made by combining all the concealed troubles made by the old man’s personal actions, including the attack towards Kouryou academy.

“Changing topics. There is one errand I want you to do------“

“Is it okay?”

<<K>>’s words include the external meanings of “You will be ignoring the board’s warning if you make any moves”.

“I don’t care. I don’t plan on being tied up by boredom in the first place anyway. That’s was why I threw away my old haunts”

“………..understood.  Please tell me the contents” 

Edward nodded and talked about his business.

The contents were simple but at the very least, <<K>> was going to be accompanied with danger.

“Can I give this matter to you, <<K>>-kun?”

“Obeying the <<Equipment Smith>>-dono’s orders------is the mission given to me”

“Okay then, I am counting on you. However, please don’t answer any questions. Tell them to ask me directly during the banquet”

“Noted”

As the old man’s next move, the devil’s servant took off.

In order to blow away the seed the devil planted.





After a while-----the <<Equipment Smith>> that was left alone in the room, mumbled to himself.

“Take a close look at this, Tsukumo, Bristol…………I have reached this far…..i have finally done it…….”

Dark happiness was filling the old man’s heart while he was staring at the external equipment which was close to completion.

It was normal.

That’s because the dream that can be said to be deep-rooted in him for many years was going to be reality.

There were times when he was laughed for being absurd.

There were also times when he was discarded from the gaps of his real intentions.

But even so, he came this far.

The wish he wanted for his whole life was about to be achieved.

Delight and several emotions swirled in his heart, and shook his heart and body.

The emotions that mixed together soon turned to madness and poured out like raging rapids from Edward as a loud laugh.

“Fu-Haha……..fuhahahaha!! Ha----haha!! Ha---hahahaha!!”

The devil laughed in the darkness.

He could not bear it any longer…………
