18. Heading out with big tits.
18. Heading out with big tits.
Dana woke up much earlier than usual, put on her uniform perfectly, and spent a long time fussing in front of the mirror. She even applied powder and dabbed on perfume to show off her femininity.
If only her chest and height were just a tiiiiny bit bigger—!
Dana felt that was particularly regrettable today. But what could she do? That's just how she was made.
Of course, if she splashed enough money on it, her chest and height would grow, but since knights are required to insert physical enhancement items into their bodies, she couldn't even dream of such surgery. Even if that weren't the case, if she spent a fortune on breast and height surgery, her immediate senior, Louis, would jump up and down and throw a massive shit-fit. Asking if a knight was some lowly profession that cared about external appearances...
Anyway, for whatever reason, Dana had completely given up on surgery, but who would have known she'd desire it so desperately the moment she saw Kal? Of course, that didn't mean she could actually do it.
Finished with her grooming, Dana finished getting ready for work and stepped out of her dormitory room. The hallway, covered in sepia-toned carpet, was lined with doors identical to hers, only with different numbers. It seemed she was the first one heading to work today.
She repeated her junior's room number over and over.
"2021, 2021...."
Dana walked down the stairs and headed to room 21 on the second floor.
Ah, found it—.
Standing in front of the door, which was naturally shut tight and motionless, she checked the time on her wristwatch and took a deep breath. By now, he should be almost done getting ready for work—.
Knock, knock, knock.
She could have pressed the doorbell, but that might be heard in other rooms.
After waiting for a while with no response, Dana knocked on the door once more. Only then did the door swing open, and someone came out from inside.
"Good mor—!"
—!
Kal, who was shirtless with a towel wrapped around his head, saw his immediate senior who had come by first thing in the morning and asked what brought her here so early.
"Ah, that, uh, that, today, work, first day, so, just, together, go, thought."
Dana couldn't find anywhere to look, her eyes rolling around here and there. Kal just nodded his head casually and said, "Come on in."
"Oh, oh? No, you can wait outside."
"It's fine. If you wait inside for a moment, I'll be done soon."
The Pink-head, worried that if they kept going back and forth like this, someone else might get the wrong idea, eventually went inside.
Unexpectedly, this was her first time ever entering a man's room, so her steps were clumsy.
"Would you like a cup of coffee while you wait?"
"Ah, no. It's okay. Hurry up."
Dana went to the sofa and sat demurely like a new bride. She felt like she was going crazy because his bare upper body from just a moment ago kept flashing before her eyes. Her face and body were burning, and her heart was pounding wildly without restraint.
She had seen plenty of guys' naked bodies while working in the Administration Squad, but Kal's statue-like body felt completely different. His face was fucking handsome, and even his physique was fantastic—!
"I'm finished."
Kal, who came out of the bedroom neatly dressed in his uniform, was truly fantastically handsome. To the point where Dana was momentarily lost for words.
"Ah, oh, really? ...Then let's go quickly. Originally, it's polite for a rookie to leave a bit earlier than the start time."
"Yes, I understand."
And so, the two of them arrived at the office early in the morning and sat at their desks. Dana called an android and ordered a simple coffee errand.
"There's nothing much to worry about. Just this much. ...Oh, and it's best not to touch the Team Leader's desk if you can help it. She handles the cleaning herself. You know what I mean?"
"Ah, yes."
"She's a bit sensitive about that sort of thing."
Dana was reminded of her own past, when she had made a mistake out of excessive enthusiasm a long time ago. To think that time had already passed and the day had come for her to receive a junior. And a fantastically handsome junior at that—!
"But what kind of work do we do?"
"Ah, good question—!"
The Pink-head cleared her throat, "Ahem," and tried to act dignified. Even though it looked a bit funny since she was only about as tall as Kal's shoulder, he didn't show it at all. Who knows, if he burst out laughing, she might jump around asking if he was looking down on her.
"What the Administration Squad does is catch corruption among the Imperial military and nobles, exterminate space pirates, catch heinous criminals, catch deserters..., anyway, we do what the police can't easily handle. We deal with more high-level stuff."
There was an unmistakable sense of pride on Dana's face. Well, once you get a taste of the power to order people around with the flick of a finger, you wouldn't easily forget it. Isn't the reason people want to be knights in the first place all because of that absolute power? Since there's no one who does better than knights in that regard. ...Though it would be a different story on a warship.
Anyway, Dana repeatedly emphasized the unique features of the Administration Squad. It was true that they weren't as popular as the combat or escort units, but that definitely didn't mean it was bad.
"Then why aren't you popular?"
"...W-well."
"Isn't it because there's a lot of annoying work?"
Since he hit the nail on the head so bluntly, Dana was startled and scanned the surroundings. Fortunately, there was no one else listening but herself.
"You'll get scolded if you say things like that in front of the seniors. Got it?"
Kal smirked.
"Yes. I'll be careful."
Dana judged that this handsome junior was a bolder guy than she thought. To think he would call it annoying work without hesitation—
...Honestly, it wasn't wrong, but still, you're supposed to pretend not to know with a bit of tact.
Just then, someone swiped a card key and opened the door with a beep. The person who arrived for work was the Administration Squad Leader, Karen.
As soon as Dana saw the Team Leader, she stood stiffly, saluted vigorously, and shouted loudly. Kal also saluted right next to her.
"Team Leader, you've arrived—!"
"Oh, yeah. Dana, Kal. Good morning."
The Team Leader went straight into her desk as soon as she arrived and started working. Dana put her finger to her lips as if to say, "Don't even breathe," and then went to her own desk.
Soon, Wang-jjiji Ellie and the boaster Louis arrived for work, and the Team Leader announced that there would be a morning meeting.
"We'll have a morning meeting in 10 minutes, so everyone get ready."
"Yes, Team Leader."
Kal was already using the office program Dana had taught him quite skillfully. He hadn't touched it for quite a long time while on the run, but he had been a knight for several years, so this was nothing.
Let's see—.
He roughly scanned the agenda for today's meeting. The content was about corruption in the upper echelons of the Akumansina Planet Headquarters and the frequent appearance of space pirates.
Space pirates were something you dealt with all the time if you were on a remote planet, so that was whatever, but the corruption of the high-ranking officials was a bit interesting. ...In fact, having witnessed countless corruptions of the Empire while acting as a knight, he was curious about the scale of corruption on this remote planet, Akumansina.
Before the meeting time, Dana took Kal to the meeting room and set up the table. The office android must have been in charge of this often, as its coffee-making skills were extraordinary.
Soon, everyone from the Administration Squad gathered in the meeting room, and the meeting began in earnest.
"Alright, let's begin."
Team Leader Karen started by mentioning the corruption issue first. Since the target was a figure in the headquarters, the Administration Squad was handling things quite secretly. However, because the opponent had twisted things around with clever methods, they hadn't easily found the mastermind.
The problem was the trail of that money. Where did that massive amount of money go? That was it. No matter how much they searched the computer records, there was no trace, and they had already been running in circles for months with no results.
Kal had a slight hunch about something, but since he was just a trainee who had started his first day today, he couldn't disturb this sacred meeting time, so he had to keep his mouth shut.
The corruption issue ended roughly like that, and this time, they moved on to the space pirate problem.
"The bastards are too well aware of the headquarters' movements. They are cleverly avoiding us every time. The opinion is that there might be a spy inside."
Then, the good-natured Wang-jjiji cautiously opened her mouth.
"Then shouldn't we conduct a full investigation?"
"Yeah, so a full investigation is scheduled soon. Of course, on the surface, it's for a different reason. ...However, if it were going to be filtered out by this, they wouldn't have planted a spy or made an inside connection in the first place. We'll conduct it, but I don't think the possibility of finding them that way is high."
"Then what do we do?"
"We have to catch the pirates somehow. And interrogate them to extract information. For now, I think that's the best method..."
Everyone nodded as if they agreed.
The pirate issue had no room for further progress here, so it was settled. After the two big agenda items were finished and a few minor items were discussed lightly, the meeting adjourned.
Dana, who was leaving the meeting room, whispered quietly to Kal and asked how it was.
"It was interesting."
"Really? That's a relief... But, ugh, you shouldn't tell the seniors it was interesting. Got it? You'll get scolded if you say that."
"Yes, I'll keep that in mind."
"You can be honest with me. I won't scold you."
The Pink-head Dana spoke as if she were the kindest and best senior in the world.
Not long after they sat down at their respective seats, the emergency light suddenly blared. It was a dispatch signal.
Ah—.
Today's person in charge was Wang-jjiji Ellie. As soon as she saw the signal, she prepared for dispatch and went to the Team Leader. Karen told her to take Kal along while she was at it. Since he needed dispatch experience anyway.
"Kal, get ready for dispatch."
Receiving the dispatch order, Kal, with Dana's help, packed his gear and left the office following Wang-jjiji.
"You don't have to be too nervous. Just do as I say. Got it?"
"Yes, Senior."
The two took the elevator down to the basement and got into the dispatch vehicle. Normally, it would be right for the junior to drive, but there was no way the kind and gentle Ellie would make Kal, who didn't even know the geography here yet, drive.
When they turned on the ignition, the car connected to the headquarters' command and control center.
"Guide us to the dispatch point."
- Understood.
The opaque front windshield brightened, and an arrow direction appeared on it. The car moved smoothly and went straight up to the ground. It passed through the iron-clad security main gate and left the headquarters.
As soon as they passed the main gate, Ellie switched the driving from manual to automatic. Kal, who had been secretly admiring her killer tits, naturally raised his gaze and looked at his senior with a smiling face.
"Usually, dispatches are related to the military. The police usually only solve problems up to civilians. We solve things above that."
Of course, this was all content Kal already knew, but he didn't miss the chance to act like he was hearing it for the first time. ...Acting like a rookie was actually quite fun, now that he was doing it.
"If you have any questions, just ask. Originally, you're supposed to learn everything you can while you're in the probationary period."
Kal momentarily really held back from asking what color her nipples were. Even so, asking about tit color on the first day of work would be a bit of an overstep. That's for after they get closer....
"Yes, I understand. I will ask immediately if I have any questions."
"...Yeah. Kal is energetic and really great. Let's work hard."
"Yes."
Honestly, Ellie was too docile for a 5-year veteran knight. ...Usually, that wouldn't be easy. Kal hadn't judged yet whether that was her innate nature or extreme mental training.
Of course, whichever it was, it meant she was not an ordinary person. If it was the former, it was scary as the former, and if it was the latter, it was scary as the latter.
In Kal's experience, there were quite a few people who hid a terrifying nature behind a mask of a constant, smiling face.
...He was curious about what was hidden behind this Wang-jjiji's mask.
