Chapter 2: Omaeda and Soi Fon

Today, Captain Soi Fon summoned me for an important mission or something, but I bet it's another miscellaneous task.

I don't even want to go.

You'd better be on time. If you're even one second late, you know what'll happen, right?

She always threatens me like that, but there isn't much going on lately. How important could this be?

She can't complain if I'm there ahead of time.

She should actually praise me for being this early.

Huh? Is that Captain Soi Fon over there?

Good timing. Hey, Captain Soi...

Oh, wait. I think she's talking to someone. Maybe it's reports from the Stealth Force.

Here are the items you've requested.

Hm.

Ahh, Lady Yoruichi! So dignified, so beautiful!

Ooh! She's dressed in clothes from the world of the living in this one! She looks wonderful in this outfit too!

Woah.

Here I thought she was getting reports from the Stealth Force, and it turns out to be reports on Lady Yoruichi.

Huh?! Who's there?!

Oh, crap!

Omaeda, were you watching? Were you listening?

Wh-What are you talking about, Captain Soi Fon? I just got here right now.

I didn't see you squealing in joy over Lady Yoruichi's pictures or any... I mean...

You're fine with those being your last words, correct?

Wait, stop! Hold on just a moment! Your weapon! Please put your weapon down!

Ah-Ahhhhhhhh!!!

Oww, that hurt! Captain, that was mean!

So, regarding your new mission.

What? Now you pretend like nothing happened?!

W-Well, I guess that's fine.

What is this important mission you needed me for?

It's an extremely critical and high priority task.

*Gulp*

I assign you the task of renovating our Squad 2 barracks.

Come again?

All costs for the construction will be paid by you.

Huh?! Wait, why?!

In exchange, all decisions regarding the renovation can be made under your sole discretion.

W-Well, I suppose that would be okay then. I can make my own room luxurious.

As long as you complete the basic necessities of this renovation, you can do whatever you like.

Alright! Then I'll do what I want with...

First, you will install a floor heating system in every room on all floors.

What?! Heated floors in every room?!

Make sure every door is automatic, and an air conditioning system is also in place.

What?! Do you even know how much it would cost to do all that?!

I won't have enough to renovate the other areas!

You can do the other stuff next time.

B-But is there really a need to do all that?

Are you telling me that it's okay for Lady Yoruichi to feel uncomfortable when she visits the Squad 2 barracks?!

Wh-Whaaaaaaat?!?

Understood? You will make sure to accomplish all of those things.

C-Can we leave one of those things for next time?

I will not allow a single thing to be missed.

Understood.
