A month later.

Imperial capital.

Ayaraku lives as usual, and although she hasn't officially done her own job, she has learned a lot from Gozzi.

Selection, training, training, and so on of assassins.

"Ernie sauce, welcome home!"

Ma Yin ran over with a cheer.

In a month, my cooking skills have improved a lot, although my chest is still so flat.

Occasionally, Leonay would come to Maine and bring her some gifts.

At this point, Ayaro did not prevent the two from contacting.

Anyway, as long as he doesn't talk about the revolutionary army, the two girls want to make friends, and he has no opinion.

......

Early morning.

As the first rays of sunlight peeked out of the window into the room, Ayaro slowly opened her eyes.

Little Lori, who was wearing white pajamas, lay next to her and was sleeping soundly.

At first, the two were separated, but since two weeks ago, Ma Yin insisted on running to Ayaroku's bed.

The reason is that he doesn't accompany me during the day, and he wants to sleep with Ernie chan at night.

Ayaro only nodded in agreement.

"It's good when you're asleep."

patted little Lori's hair, and Ayaluo was ready to go.

I'm going to do a human experiment on an assassin today, and Dr. Fashion is there.

He will also be responsible for this aspect of his future work, so he also needs to learn.

Learning and not talking, even if they weren't invited, Ayaro would go.

Recently, a new group of assassins' children has arrived in the imperial capital, numbering more than 100, which is entrusted to Goz.

Among them are the people Ayaro wants......

Soon.

Imperial capital.

Outskirts.

In a hidden laboratory hidden deep in the forest, Ayaro is led by a signal soldier to this place.

"Aya-kun, you've kept me waiting."

The fashion doctor waited in front of the door, giving the young man enough face.

However, this attitude is inevitably overzealous.

Looked at by his eyes, Aya got goosebumps.

"Dr. Fashion,"

"Let's go talk first."

"It's fine."

Soon, through the dark corridor, the two came to the laboratory under the hidden base.

The new arrivals are all here now.

Some were orphans, some were vagabonds, and some were children of down-and-out nobles.

Regardless of their origins, these children have been turned into experimental materials from the moment they come here.

The first step is drug resistance.

The Empire manages assassins through special potions, increasing the strength of the Assassins with drug dependence, while also making the Assassins absolutely loyal to the Empire.

If you can't even pass the first level, then there's no need to continue cultivating.

This kind of child is completely garbage, just throw it away and feed the dangerous species.

"That's a lot of people."

Ayaraku's gaze swept around the base.

Hundreds of children, ranging in number, were held in various iron cages, ranging from seven or eight years old to eleven or twelve.

Children of this age are suitable for training, and also suitable for being brainwashed into being instruments of the empire.

"Before the experiment begins, let's show Aya-kun the power of this drug."

Gozzi walked over with a smile.

Holding in his hand is a shot of a potion of green solution, a drug developed by Dr. Fashion.

"Drag that death row prisoner here."

"Yes."

As soon as the words ended, two experimenters brought over the prepared living body.

Gozzi then injected a dose of medicine.

"Injecting this drug, the physical strength, resilience, and mental impact of human beings will be strengthened in a short period of time,"

"Even if you are mortally wounded, you have the potential to continue fighting......"

"Aya-kun can try to slash him."

Dr. Fashion explained, handing over a knife by the way.

"Hmm."

Ayaro nodded and began to observe the man on death row in front of her.

He was clearly mentally unsane.

After being injected with the medicine, his eyes became like that of a beast.

First, he cut the flesh of his arm with a knife, and found that the injury was healing quickly, and he survived with the power of the medicine.

What if the hand is broken?

Ayaluo chops off the right hand of the condemned prisoner.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa————"

The man wailed.

The cut of the wound quickly stopped bleeding, and the painful look on the face of the condemned prisoner dissipated in just a few seconds.

Yes, the drug also has a stimulant effect.

"Then I'll explain it later,"

Dr. Fashion waved his hand.

The two experimenters nodded knowingly, dragging the condemned prisoner out of the room, ready to dispose of it.

"The effect of the drug, Aya-kun, you also saw it,"

"This thing works by stimulating the life potential of the human body, in other words, it is to exchange life for the improvement of combat effectiveness, and it has a strong addictive ......"

After listening to the narration, Ayaluo looked at the children in the cage beside her.

Therein is his goal.

"Don't look at the more than 100 people here, it would be nice to have five of them who could survive after all the training."

Gozzi shrugged.

He has been doing this for many years and has a lot of experience.

"That's right,"

"Can I pick two, then?"

"It just so happens that I'm starting to do this myself, so I'll find two to be guinea pigs first."

Ayaro smiled slightly.

"Well, Aya-kun, who do you fancie, just tell me."

Gozzi replied nonchalantly.

The background of these children's information, as well as the physical fitness test, he carefully read them all once beforehand.

Except for a few dozen or so who are qualified, most of the children are very average.

As for the excellent?

None of the excellent ones.

To put it bluntly, this kind of goods can be bought in the slums for a few gold coins.

Since Ayaluo wants to use two experimental materials for one, he also happens to send a favor.

"Thank you so much Mr. Gozzi."

The smile on Ayaraku's face widened.

"The information is here,"

"Aya-kun can say whatever he likes, and the drug resistance test will start right away, so you can inject the test subject yourself."

Dr. Fashion handed over a thick stack of paper on the table.

"Thank you."

Ayaraku reached out and took it, quickly skimming through the names of the children on the paper.

If it was just those two people, he wouldn't need anything else.

It was for them that he took the initiative to ask to be the leader of the assassination team, which was not very popular and time-consuming.

"Let's decide it's the sisters,"

"Red pupils, black pupils, the name is quite cute when you pronounce it."

Ayaraku pulled out two pieces of paper.

"Well, these two children will be Aya-kun's in the future."

Gozzi nodded.

Red Hitomi is one of the dozen or so children he mentioned before who are not bad, and as for Black Hitomi, he is the kind of child whose physical fitness is very average.

Anyway, just send it out, he doesn't feel distressed.

"Thank you so much."

Ayaro followed Gozqi to an iron cage where the two sisters were imprisoned.

The two little girls look like they are about ten years old, not much different from Mayin.

As an older sister, Hitomi has long black hair that is soft and beautiful, and as her name suggests, her beautiful pupils are red, her body is slightly thin, and she wears a tattered gray cloth dress.

Although the situation is not good, Akatomi still grabs her sister's hand and seems to maintain a certain degree of calm.

My sister's black pupils have short black hair, deep black pupils, and a thin figure, more petite than my sister, as if she will fall down when the wind blows.

Unlike her sister, her eyes showed fear of strangers.
