Fairy Festival

What makes X worried is the Safety Department. The Safety Department Netzach is not too reliable. If this state of affairs continues, it is really difficult to imagine any positive changes.

However, of course, Netzach calls herself 'Working as a waste', and X can only understand that the Corporation intended to arrange her like that. In daily work, she has to devote more energy to the Safety Department, in charge of Safety Department employee employment matters.

Anyway, of course, Netzach doesn't want to be held responsible for the employee's death. Then X, as the Manager, can only be held responsible for the employee's death... So guilty it's okay for her to shoulder the responsibility alone.

"Okay, Netzach, can you calm down a bit now? Let's talk about the report to the situation department later. It's almost time for work, is there any task that I need to complete today?

X looked at Netzach hanging from the ceiling like a green caterpillar, sighing.

She doesn't even understand how Netzach still isn't being fired. At least X, this Manager herself, has a 50% probability every day because the left foot is the first to enter the office and is expelled, the remaining 50% probability is because the work is not completed.

X doesn't want to be a bad person, the kind of person who can't find a pursuit, can't find a goal, feels empty, is scared, and also sad.

At least now X is clear about what she has to do, she must perform well as the manager, meeting the Energy Quota daily, and actively contributing to the Corporation's Development. Over the past few days, she neither expresses hatred nor affection for her role. Her feelings are distant from disgust, and she isn't considering immediate resignation.

"Manager, you have enthusiasm... You must know that employees will encounter fatal incidents as usual."

"Many of them know that because of this, they have lost their lives or their minds…"

Netzach spoke secretly, still in that downbeat tone, the rope tied tightly around her body did not affect her, hanging from the ceiling was not a bad punishment.

That appearance just now was probably just to give her some face and act for X to see.

Netzach's green-black pupils stare at the camera as if looking at X, even across the screen, it's as if it's close to her ear in the gentle drizzle.

"Of course, I think losing your reason is worse than losing your life. In that case, can you do everything well, Manager? Complete today's work without employees panicking."

"Good good good, I know, I won't be like you, complaining about the unfortunate life every day without thinking about a single change. Netzach—— See for yourself how you drowned in this addictive potion...."

X then turned off the screen.

"Huh, what is she? I'm so angry. Angela, has Netzach never received any complaints or accusations from employees?

X complained that even though taunting the generals was a very despicable thing, it was clear that X always fell for the bait.

[Manager, your naive behavior will harm the Corporation's image. Every Department Dean is also an AI well arranged by the Corporation, you have no right to change...]

"But Angela, she bullies me!"

[You can't count on every Dean to follow your wishes, well... Do you need another cup of coffee, or should we say a glass of hot milk?]

"Okay, give me a glass of sweet milk, I also want a sandwich and cookies."

After roughly understanding the meaning of the AI Secretary's words, X can only give up this kind of useless complaint. After all, an employee's complaint within the Corporation can be said to be unthinkable. You can complain, but there will not be any changes.

Regarding this, X estimates that Lobotomy Corporation AI is truly unique, at least in terms of personality, it is truly unique.

So is the designer crazy? X feels that since she took on the position of Manager, every day she has to scold the designer.

Why can there be this kind of AI? Is this reasonable?

Only sweet cow's milk and filled biscuits could calm her mood a little.

In the screen where the employees have moved, those Abnormalities in the Containment Unit are also ready to move... After the suppressor is turned down, these Abnormalities that were originally dormant will start working again, their activity means work has officially commenced.

New Abnormalities [F-04-83] is a plump humanoid individual, similar in appearance to the fairy tale 'Little Fairy' and is surrounded by many smaller individuals

Looks so friendly... Roughly?

At least this one compared to [ Beauty and the Beast ] is a bit more normal, Cognition Filter [F-04-83] is a humanoid elf with light green skin, Although it doesn't quite meet the standard of beauty, there's nothing scary about it, there's still something vaguely adorable about it.

It has four fat arms, two thighs, Then two pairs of giant insect wings similar to those of a butterfly or a moth, there are two pointed ears on the head and two arms like.

It's ugly, but that doesn't mean it can be ignored. The first part of the Manager's handbook is not to despise any Abnormalities.

[ The simulations have started ——]

[Day 3—— Feast in a fairy tale ]

[ Today, you successfully contained a batch of Z-class Abnormality with the lowest risk factor, it was placed in the Information Department Containment unit ]

[You mobilized employees to carry out Instinct work on [F-04-83], the work resulted in excellent results. Employees are full of energy after coming out, there is a faint green light flashing around, after detection, this is [F-04-83] using its special ability to treat employees' injuries ]

[You discovered an employee đie in the hallway, his body fell in front [ One Sin and Hundreds of Good Deeds ] Containment unit ]

[You mobilized employees to carry out Insight work on [F-04-83], the work resulted in excellent results. Employees are full of energy after coming out, there is a faint green light flashing around, after detection, this is [F-04-83] using its special ability to treat employees' injuries ]

[You discovered that an employee died in the hallway, his body fell in front of [Beauty and the Beast ] Containment unit]

[Information from the Information Department Dean is in a crazy attack, you don't care about this]

[You mobilized employees to carry out Attachment work on [F-04-83], the work resulted in excellent results. Employees are full of energy after coming out, there is a faint green light flashing around, after detection, this is [F-04-83] using its special ability to treat employees' injuries ]

[You discovered that an employee died in the hallway, his body fell in front of [Beauty and the Beast ] Containment unit]

[Information from the Information Department Dean is in a crazy attack, you don't care about this]

[After going through many tests, you discover that [F-04-83] Abnormalities will give the employee something similar to a blessing unless the employee has a [Bad] result, then they will not receive it. Employees who hold this blessing will be eaten up when doing work on other Abnormalities. ]

[ Simulation continues OR simulation stops ]

[ Stop ]

It's possible that the simulation is too long and will have the same option. At least X felt that there was no need to continue the simulation. Looking down at the results, she could already guess what it was after so many experiences.

It will probably still be her who gets punished because of her poor job performance. As a mature Manager, X could already predict how the AI Secretary would find an excuse to punish herself, or if the other Deans would react when the job ended catastrophically.

Whether being punished by Dean or being punished by the AI Secretary, it's not the result X expected. If she already knew the outcome, then there was no need to continue watching, she simply wanted to avoid those situations.

Although there will be no reward option after the [Stop] simulation, it doesn't matter whether there is or not, what matters is information and intelligence... Of course, the main reason is that X herself feels that after simulating too many times... she will feel uncomfortable.

It's like suddenly feeling a little angry, my chest feels uncomfortable, or... It was difficult to react. If there was nothing forced, she did not expect to see the results of the so-called simulation, which increased her sense of insecurity.

It's hard to get used to the feeling of having a Secretary AI by her side, now having to perceive other types of conflicting emotions, creating a strong disconnection, as if she was no longer herself.....

Why... she feel like herself reflected on the screen is not like herself?

X tried to focus her attention, focusing her attention on work, but that feeling of disharmony not only did not disappear but also became more and more severe.

Manager's work is very convenient for X, just like an ordinary instinct to adjust the [flow rate] at the right moment. Also, she can switch back and forth between multiple screens, with no need to practice, and she can still do it as usual.

But.....X doesn't remember clearly that she's done something similar, but fortunately, after entering the working state, X doesn't bother with these things anymore, she doesn't have the energy to get hung up on the minutiae.

"Yesod, let your employee do Instinct work for [F-04-83], only do Instinct work, watch out for them, don't let your employee go to another Department to help manage Abnormalities work."

"Any employee taking over the work without authorization is strictly prohibited! In charge of management [F-04-83] Abnormalities employees are prohibited from going to other Containment units, work handover must be approved by Dean."

"Malkuth, today let the employee do Insight work for [One Sin and Hundreds of Good Deeds]. Although Attachment work is more effective, the employee also needs to practice other abilities."

"Netzach, even though there is beer in the lounge, you are only allowed to drink one can! Don't let me see you like a drunk man lying in the break room. Even if today's work is easy, you can't be so undisciplined. Come to the Manager's room after work to find me!"

Because only 3 Abnormalities were given, and placed separately in 3 Departments, leaving it to all Department Deans to manage there was nothing special to worry about. By clearly understanding the following characteristics of Abnormalities, the possibility of an unexpected event occurring is infinitely zero.

[F-04-83] Abnormalities is ZAYIN, Abnormalities of this level show almost no aggression, also don't have any thoughts about attacking or harming employees.

They will not cause any major harm to the employee, and can even have a positive impact on the employee under the right circumstances... But they still cannot be underestimated.

After working for [F-04-83] for some time, an intelligence base also came out, so Abnormalities were officially identified as [Fairy Festival], which is an almost harmless Abnormality, extremely welcomed by employees.

Based on what Yesod said, 'Fairy's blessing' has even become a means of showing off among employees, only those employees who perform well will be 'favored' by the fairy, receiving 'Fairy's blessing'.

An employee who receives the little fairy's blessing is unable to go to another Containment unit to carry out work. As long as the employee has the slightest intention of going to other places, he or she will... be eaten.

At first, X thought that the other two had other rules that were not discovered by her. But [One Sin and Hundreds of Good Deeds] and [Beauty and the Beast] also cause mental damage to employees, not physical damage... No matter what happens, it has nothing to do with them.

After using the stupidest method to eliminate it, the person behind it can only be a little fairy, the so-called [Fairy Festival] has the true meaning - Looking for a feast for the fairies.

Although it was a bit unexpected, X was not surprised, because this was not a fairy tale world. Moreover, it is almost impossible for there to be no return, purely for goodwill and good help...

"Angela, the coffee is cold, please make me another cup."

X pushed the cooled coffee aside and asked the Secretary to pour it into the ice-cold ice tray.

Even though she knew the nature of 'Fairy's blessing', it had quite a positive impact on the employee, so X had no intention of telling the truth just like that.

"Information Department employees, next please continue to take care of the little fairy, [Fairy Festival] likes people who are 1000% enthusiastic about their work!"

"Thanks for everyone's efforts, we just need to work again for a while and then we can finish work! After work, you can go to the Safety Department to get two cans of beer cans for free."

X does a simple announcement via the broadcast, even though it's just a small thank-you note, it can very well lift employee morale.

For Dean, Manager may not be considered anything, not even an honorific, but for employees, it is probably very special, like an idol, or perhaps a spiritual leader.

Wings of the World's status in the hearts of employees can be compared to what X thinks is higher. Each of them feels very proud to join Wings of the World, considering it a kind of glory.

Hm, no matter how you say it, employees will develop their values and tricks no matter what.

X briefly looked away from the screen, pressed down [Pause], lowered her head, and took a sip of coffee, this time without extra sugar added, but X didn't dislike the taste.

Sugar is just used in moderation, the main subject is still coffee, and a little gentleness of coffee will be better.
