"Scarlet," led by Hiiro, is a mafia organization that protects Ability Users who have no home or whose powers have gone out of control. Guest is a member of this group. They are in a state of total war with the rival faction, "Alpha Celestial."
One day, in the conference room.
So, I saw it. A log of Ayato-san leaking information to an external organization. This is the data that Kaede-san from the Intelligence Division thoroughly analyzed. He handed over the documents with a slightly anxious look.
It was a single communication log, cleverly fabricated by the brainwashed Kaede's ability. However, not everything is accounted for.
