In this section of the lone depressive corridor, Darcel held a slightly exasperated look while watching the door next to him open. Several people walking by cast odd looks at him, yet they still went on about their day.

Only someone like that boy would be daring enough to wait for a person in this Organization.

Slowly the gray door open and out step was an odd yet enchanting mix of black and white. It was a young woman, around Darcel's teenage age and also quite attractive looking.

What catches eyes the most was her dazzling pure white hair that neatly swayed down to her waist. In an Organization were dark or dull monotonous color was the norm, this girl was a massive contrast.

Her face was cute, spouting enchanting black eyes and an ever-present small smile. Looking down to her body, it was curvaceous but still held a youthful charm as she's still growing.

Her breasts, along with her behind, were at a modest cute size. Her assets carried their own unique attraction to her.

And on top of all, precisely like Darcel, she wore black clothing, which signifies her slight specialty among the commons.

This was a cute girl that could cause several heads to turn back at her. Although for this place, the heads that did turn to her didn't look on in lust or appreciation of her beauty.

Rather, entirely like Darcel once again, their eyes held envy, jealousy, and a small leakage of undisclosed killing intent.

Only one pair of eyes differ from the others. And of course, it was Darcel's already tired eyes when watching the girl step out into the corridor.

Promptly, for the girl as well, akin to having a sixth sense, she turned her head to her left and locked eyes with Darcel's. Black eyes met black eyes, and the girl was the one that gained an even more full smile.

"Once again, the standoffish Darcel can't ever bear to lose to his cute friend! But, he's at least chivalrous enough to wait for me~!" The girl's bright, cheerful voice bounced off the corridor walls.

Not only was her appearance in stark contrast to the rest of the place, but also her light demeanor went against everyone.

And besides people slightly quirking their eyebrows, nobody changed their passing glances towards the girl.

Even Darcel could never hope to achieve the level of energy this girl could somehow muster up. And he didn't bother nor care to try. All he simply did was blinked his eyes before turning around to his left.

Then, without a single word utter, he began walking down the corridor.

For the girl, despite being outright ignored even when Darcel stared into her face. She didn't get mad nor sad and swiftly matched Darcel's paced while walking.

"Just for one day, would it destroy you to just give me a simple hi! I even gave you a decent opener today!" Uncaring about anyone else walking, this girl was as merely as loud and bright as she wanted.

Likewise, with the very atmosphere being oppressive and crushing, that won't break this girl stride a single bit.

And towards talking to Darcel, her wide smile didn't lessen in the slightest.

"Aniela, weren't you the one to say it's enough to cross eyes with me? But since you'll keep pestering me about it, I'll make sure to say hi the next time."

Darcel shrugged his shoulder and cast Aniela a sidelong glance. It was the least he could do for this troublesome girl.

"You said that last time! Hah, no matter. Today we'll just have another memorable day so you for sure won't forget. Oh! By the way, how was your task this morning?"

This question made Darcel wonder, how the hell could she tell it was morning? There were no windows, magic watches, or anything of the sort to know when it's night or day here.

But Darcel didn't bother really questioning it since it was her own made-up logic. Looking over to Aniela, he said, "As per usual. A failed test and then a quick test to see if I live or die. You?"

"Mnh, mnh. I was a bit of the same. After failing to make those weird Doctors lighten up the mood, their test failed, and I had to mess about for my life. Honestly, Darc, I think one day, I can get through to them."

Aniela had a proud and confident smile while stating this. Such a bold, outreaching claim did cause Darcel to raise an eyebrow at her.

"What supposedly makes this day compared to the years we already spent any different?" Unhesitatingly, Aniela pointed her finger at him with a cute teasing smile.

"A natural feeling, of course! There's also the fact you seem a bit more pepper in your step. I can already tell that's a good premonition." Darcel creased his eyebrows though he wasn't really surprised.

Admittedly if his slightest behavior changed, this girl could always pick up on it. Though he had to relent since towards her, Darcel could tell he was the same way.

"Eh, it's just that recurring dream I've been having. Don't look so deep into it. And for that ma-"

"Ah?!? So you basically just confirmed today our fates really will change!" With high excitement, Aniela proclaimed to the whole corridor!

The two during their talk haven't stopped walking. And when Aniela made that loud shout, all the people that were passing by had focused their attention on them.

Seriously, if they had to guess, they would most definitely say these two 'experimenters' have more screw loose than even the deranged ones.

Moreover, her loud shout didn't even cause the two to pause and look around to the commotion they just created. Instead, they kept on walking while Darcel told her,

If you find this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the infringement.

"Say, I guess your brain isn't full of air since I thought the same thing for this specific version of my dream. But don't take it too literally. Even you should be aware of how reality is often...disappointing."

"Heh! That's just your negativity! With my positivity, I'm sure something will happen today! And look, it's already happening. The line is shorter for our fellow workers."

Aniela had pointed out to a decently long line of people in slightly lighter gray clothing. Like it was routine for the duo, they didn't even notice the line until the last second.

The ones on the line paid no attention to the duo and were intent on focusing on their tasks.

"Are you now going to point out every strange little nuance today? Plus, for this Organization, there's probably some messed up reason why there's less on the line today."

Despite pointing out the line, the duo didn't even bother going on it. Much to the ire of their fellow 'workers,' Darcel and Aniela just walked right beside them.

Now in this part of the corridor. There wasn't a single person who dared to walk beside the line. Like loyal subjects, they all were supposed to wait.

Well, nearly all people are supposed to wait…

"You raise a point. But I counter it with another, I mean just look at their expressions today. Some look like they're expecting some good news." Aniela stated, getting Darcel to look over to them.

Truly when he or she isn't talking, Darcel is reminded of this overwhelming depressive atmosphere this place has since no one dared to converse with each other.

Even with all their fair share of glares and looks they get, no one ever decided to step up to them or also make a lowly comment.

Moreover, those people's faces don't necessarily look like they're waiting for good news.

"You sure do have a unique observation. In any case, I wonder what dull tasks we have for us for today." Darcel commented once the duo finally arrived near the end of the line, where they saw a gray counter.

This gray counter was connected to the corridor's back wall, and behind the counter was yet again another cold-looking man wearing a doctor suit.

The only difference for him was the surgical mask he wore that covered his face.

No one dared to go up to him despite having zero people in front of the counter. The line was only about a few feet apart from the counter. Yet, due to a particular duo, the workers at least knew why to stop now.

"Just watch this, Darc." Aniela had suddenly gained a sly smile and tugged on his sleeves. The duo was just a mere couple of feet apart from the end of the line.

"Hm?" Confusion for Darcel soon toon into realization as everyone suddenly felt a dramatic shift in the corridor!

Unfathomable powerful auras burst through the corridor's halls, and the chaotic sound of wind boomed into eardrums.

'Hua!'

And right past the duo, several bursts of winds nearly knocked them flat on their backs!

As for the other workers?

"Ahhh!?!"

Unlucky for them, the whole mass line of people were thrown all over the place, crashing hard into the gray walls.

This was merely the raw, powerful speed of the mysterious Doctors here.

Darcel and Aniela had to shield their eyes, clench their legs and grit their teeth just to stay on top. Their saving grace was at least the Doctors were only using their natural speed and not a single bit of their true power.

"You two. Stop pissing around and follow us now.'" Blaring right next to them, a superior disdainful tone made the duo look slightly up.

All at once, the high intense winds didn't affect them anymore, allowing for control over their bodies now.

"Oh great, if it isn't the high order, Doctor." Darcel's eyes matched this time to a dignified man in a blue Doctor suit. Really, despite this mere cosmetic change, his presence was far higher than someone like Dr.Zhi.

"Ah! If it isn-"

"Follow now."

The high order Doctor crudely cut off Aniela and already set off walking. His direction was precisely where the other Doctors were heading.

Once told what to do, Darcel and Aniela, no matter their varying opinions, made sure to follow orders. This is why they promptly follow directly behind the high order Doctor.

Moreover, without him, they would eventually end up knocked around like the rest of the workers.

"My intuition knows no bound Darc. But what the heck? Any idea on this sudden rush?" Aniela asked while keeping up pace with the high order Doctor.

And for this matter, even with his dream, Darcel had no clue what's going on.

After all, his dream wasn't very telling. "If I were to guess, most likely they got their hands on this extraordinary person. Not much can make these guys move like this."

The duo could only shrug their shoulders and kept on talking while following. Just because some urgent meeting happened didn't mean this would break their stride.

Besides, the duo was convinced they're only coming because their combined unique powers are needed. Even with Aniela's intuition, she also didn't believe the new patient could somehow be related to them.

If only anyone knew the future that lay ahead after this event…

….

"Indeed, patience is a virtue. This woman was starting to become too troublesome to get."

"Countless years wasted will be made up for it now."

"It simply finally feels good to take a step in the right direction."

Numerous chatter like this dripped into Darcel and Aniela's ears once they arrived in a massive spacious gray room. The size of this room could nearly fit hundreds of people!

Moreover, hundreds of Doctors had gathered here!

The high order Doctor had led the duo towards the front of the crowd. It leads them to get to the center of the room where advent anticipation filled this normally depressive place.

"Would you look at this, Darc? It seems like even for these cold guys when they want to build up excitement, they sure can deliver." Aniela remarked, feeling and liking the excitement filling this room.

Looking around, Darcel did notice the usual stoic face of the Doctors shine a bit brighter for today. And looking up even further, Darcel spotted something.

"Aniela, take a look up there."

"Hm? Oh! A falling subject?" Up to where Darcel pointed was what should've been a magical sight.

Four Doctors in this new green suit were currently flying in the air! Though this grand achievement was overshadowed by what they were doing in midair.

Out from their sleeves were several metal chains that they all grip tightly. And on a long gray table, similarly floating in midair, did the chains wrap around a person.

At this point, the person showed slight signs of movement, but the most peculiar action came from their head.

Darcel and Aniela didn't know why, but to them, it seemed like this person was attempting to move their head to look down into the crowd. Furthermore, a minuscule odd feeling swelled a bit in their blood.

"Be prepared! We're coming down now!" One of the four men in the air shouted out, causing the other Doctors to go silent.

Slowly but surely, they descended to the floor. As they near the floor, Darcel and Aniela were finally able to get a good luck at this person.

It was a woman. Though you would have to squint your eyes to notice since this woman had a tragically mutilated appearance.

Her clothes were tattered, and fresh dark blood poured down the table.

Although it wasn't her tragic appearance nor the natural aura, this woman could still exude that caught the duo attention.

It was the simple fact when this woman got into view, her eyes immediately latched onto Darcel and Aniela.
