Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely-Chapter 804

Chapter 804: Chapter 730 Shinji Chapter 804 -730 Shinji “You’ve been looking rather radiant lately; I thought you’d have trouble adjusting after the personnel changes.”

Misato Katsuragi eyed the rosy-cheeked, collagen-rich Airi Suzuki with a hint of envy.

The powers at NERV were concentrating rapidly, and as an important member of the operations division, Misato’s own authority was ballooning just as quickly.

She wasn’t just promoted to Major, ranking equally with Airi Suzuki; she was also Tao Yu’s direct supervisor, responsible for the daily life and safety of the Qualified.

For this very reason, she had a mountain of handover tasks, keeping her so busy she hardly got any good sleep at night, to the point of developing dark circles under her eyes.

Now, seeing Airi Suzuki’s skin looking flawless, she felt a bit of teeth-gritting frustration.

Why does she get to sleep peacefully, huh?

We just experienced an Angel Envoy attack!

...

“How could I not?

I actually find life much better now.

Anyway, if something goes wrong, you guys will handle it, and it has little to do with us regular soldiers.”

Airi Suzuki spoke with a languid drawl, letting out a yawn that carried a touch of allure.

In fact, as a double agent, apart from serving Tao Yu, she also had many other missions.

Due to Tao Yu’s exaggerated performance when fighting the Angel Envoy,

the importance of Takigakure Village had risen sharply.

Airi Suzuki, who had been working for the Human Instrumentality Committee, now found herself directly questioned by members of the committee.

They especially inquired about her control over Tao Yu, ordering her to maintain emotional influence at any price.

Any means were permissible.

Of course, she conveyed this immediately back to Tao Yu.

And Tao Yu himself had no good feelings towards SEELE from the original story—holding the Dead Sea Scrolls, toying with human lives, inciting human extinction events more than once!

Such a deranged organization was only temporarily unclear in its trajectory; otherwise, Tao Yu, who was keen on obtaining the true Dead Sea Scrolls, was actually considering making a direct visit!

“Alright, where’s that fellow Minato Namikaze?”

“I’m right here, Misato.”

Tao Yu emerged from the room with a smile and a greeting.

“Airi is quite a piece of work; I’m sure she hasn’t bullied you too much on a regular basis.”

“Yes, is there something you need from me, Misato?”

At the moment, Misato was Tao Yu’s direct supervisor.

“I’ve mentioned before that later, I have to go pick up another Qualified, and you two might become partners.

Do you want to join?”

Misato Katsuragi’s words made Tao Yu pause for a moment, realizing it must be about Shinji Ikari.

He hadn’t expected that despite his stellar performance, that man still decided to bring his son.

It was only due to the Water Angel’s attack that there was a slight delay!

In theory, there really was no reason for it—Gendo Ikari’s neglect of Shinji Ikari for so long; it was hard to know what he was truly thinking.

“As he might be my partner in the future, of course I should go.”

Tao Yu’s response made Misato nod, and after a moment’s hesitation, she finally spoke up,

“He might also have to pilot Unit-01 in the future.”

“It’s okay, if he’s aware of this, it’s actually a good thing.

The pressure to save the world is quite heavy.”

Tao Yu sighed.

Seeing this, Misato was taken aback for a moment, then felt a pang of sorrow for the child and couldn’t help but feel a bit of pity.

“Indeed, this sort of burden shouldn’t fall on those of your age!”

“Alright, alright, if we’re going to pick someone up, let’s head out.”

Airi Suzuki couldn’t help but feel a bit speechless at this—believing such talk.

It’s a good thing you two aren’t living together.

Afterward, she mischievously said,

“You’re his direct supervisor now, and you’re responsible for his safety, so why not just have him stay at your place?”

“Huh?

You know full well what my place is like.”

Misato Katsuragi’s expression turned a bit awkward; she wasn’t the type to keep her room tidy.

“Haha, just let me know when you come around to the idea.

Taking care of this little brat is exhausting…”

“What’s so exhausting about it?

You guys have meal services, right?

You don’t have to cook.”

“Hehe~”

Airi Suzuki gave Misato a subtle look, just smiled and didn’t say anything else…

…

“This car feels a bit old-fashioned…”

Sitting in Misato’s car, Tao Yu felt that the car’s style seemed out of place with the current level of technology.

“This is a good car.”

Misato replied discontentedly, then stepped on the gas and started speeding away.

“Qualified pilots are all about the same age; you should have something in common.”

“I guess…”

Tao Yu thought about whether he had anything in common with Shinji and couldn’t help but fall silent for a moment.

The guy was always with his Walkman, probably liked music, but as for what music in this world and era was like, Tao Yu doubted he could say anything relatable.

Having something in common would be a miracle.

Maybe something Star Lord would like?

“But to make Unit-01 more cooperative, it’s still a good idea to look after him a little bit…”

Tao Yu thought about his own interactions with Unit-01.

Yui Ikari’s spirit may be mostly instinctual now, but that instinctive maternal love was incredibly strong.

If he wanted to hassle it about killing Angels, giving Shinji some perks seemed fair…

Amidst the casual conversation, Misato drove along the highway and arrived at New Tokyo-2.

Unlike the fortified nature of New Tokyo-3, New Tokyo-2 had far more residential qualities.

After the Second Impact raised sea levels and the Chaos attacks rendered Tokyo unusable, New Tokyo-2 emerged accordingly.

Looking at the bustling streets, Misato sighed,

“Originally, as New Tokyo-3 was newly built and ready to welcome residents, but after the recent battles, some of the already settled inhabitants began to relocate…”

The fortress-like setting of New Tokyo-3 wasn’t exactly attracting people.

And then the Angel Envoy attacked.

Although Tao Yu handled the target in Unit-01, the situation was too dire during the previous battle with the UN forces.

Even N2 mines were used, and despite New Tokyo-3’s robust defense installations, no one wanted to live in a war zone.

“There it is, right over there.”

Misato had checked the photo and spotted Shinji standing by the roadside.

Since New Tokyo-3’s monorails were still down following the Angel Envoy’s attack, Misato had to drive for two or three hours to get here and find Shinji Ikari.

But even though he was the son of her boss, Misato herself did not feel any particular obligation in that regard.

She simply rolled down the window and waved to Shinji outside,

New n𝙤vel chapters are published on novelbuddy.cσ๓.

“Shinji-kun, over here.”

Shinji also compared the photo of Misato in his hand and, confirming it was her, got into the car.

At the same time, he curiously looked at Tao Yu sitting in the passenger seat.

Judging by age, Tao Yu was about the same as Shinji, but thanks to that damned Witch’s bonus, he had already innately gained Shinji’s favor.

Even feeling a bit ashamed of himself…
