Kibutsuji Foundation was founded by a well-known superhuman family, the Kibutsujis to create an unstoppable army of powerful fighters. Superhumans and mutants across East Asian nations were recruited by the Kibutsuji family in hope to bolster the ranks of the foundation itself.
With an evil frown on his face, the leader of Kibutsuji Foundation stared silently at the city skyline from the glass wall inside his office. From a distance, he could see clearly a supertall skyscraper in the middle of the city.
Nicknamed "The Tower of Obedience", the skyscraper itself reached the height of approximately 4,400 m, the second after 5,000 m tall "The White Scepter" in Shanghai, which serves as the seat of the Lieutenant-Governor of East Asia. It's one of the symbols of Erionian rule over East Asia.
A few seconds later, a group of seven people; six men and one woman, six superhumans and one mutant entered the room. They're known as the Superiors, the strongest of Muzan's loyal fighters in Kibutsuji Foundation and the backbone of his vainglorious achievements.
In truth, Kokushibou, Douma and Kaigaku are members of the Superiors. The other four are Nakime, Hantengu, Gyokko and Enmu.
"Kibutsuji-sama" Kokushibou addressed his master.
Muzan then turned behind. His greatest subordinates were already stood before their master.
...
If there's a majestic Erionian tower like The White Sceptre in Earth, then there's also a similar black tower located in the newly-terraformed Infester colony of Anthulkar (Infester name for Jupiter's volcanic moon, Io).
Aside from their successful occupation of the Earth, the Erionians have competed against their rivals, the Gorgoronians (popularly known as the Infesters by the Erionians and Earthlings) in gaining the dominance over the other parts of Solar System. The largest moons of Jupiter for example, the Erionians secured their control of Ganymede, Callisto and Europa. However, the Infesters managed seize Io before their enemies had the chance to took the opportunity.
Inside a large hallway, General Goriun was speaking with Lord High Commissioner Vodnek over their latest moves.
"Vodnek, how much longer must we wait? We can't just sit here and do nothing like a lifeless rock!" Goriun stated impatiently.
"Patience, Goriun. If we start with a wrong step, then all of our plans will be doomed. That's why we need to wait for the right time before we strike" the ten-eyed Infester replied. His hand was holding a black sceptre with a glowing green crystal at the top end.
Vodnek then glanced at glass wall. The gas giant Jupiter was visible in the yellowish morning sky of Io.
"The Erionian grip over this planetary system has already weakened, they will fall under our dominance soon" Vodnek added.
"Weakened? What do you mean?" Goriun was dumbfounded.
"It was only matter of time before the Earthlings will rebel against their overlords. What the Erionians have done today will become their undoing" Vodnek said.
Goriun only stared silently at Vodnek.
Outside of the tower, a number of Infester spaceship had departed from the space station, moving towards their respective destinations.
...
"Why me?"
Seo-Rin sat in front of the leader Infester Slayer Corps, Kagaya inside his office. Next to the left of him was Yoriichi, the younger twin brother of Kokushibou who holds the position of the chief executive in Kagaya's organisation. And next to right was Amane, Kagaya's wife and secretary of the organisation.
The last thing she thought to herself when she was summoned to Kagaya's office is she got promoted to the position of the chief of Intelligence Division. The previous division chief, Ito Momori resigned for several personal reasons and quitted the organisation. Alexei Aleshin would predicted to be his successor, but shortly after the former's resignation he also quitted to pursue his career as a journalist in CCCP Post. Their resignations were a heavy blow for the Infester Slayer Corps since their reputations are well known by everyone inside and outside of the organisation.
Muzan felt happy after heard the news.
"Chol Seo-rin, I must admit that you're one of the best intelligence officers we've in our organisation, that's why i want you to lead the division" Kagaya said.
"But I don't know if I could lead the division, sir" Seo-rin replied.
"Trust me, I know you can do it" Kagaya smiled.
Seo-rin went silent. If Kagaya had chose her, perhaps she must accept it.
"Do you know why Momori resigned from his position?" Kagaya said again.
Seo-rin don't understand. Why Kagaya was mentioning about that guy?
To be continued...
Fun Fact #5:
1. Gyokko is the only mutant in the Superiors.
2. Ito is a actually an undercover agent of the Dark Tunnel. He revealed his true identity to Kagaya and Yoriichi in his resignation letter, yet the duo only kept this information to themselves.
