"Don't misunderstand, that sheep is not weak."

The red-haired director, with the initial effects of the alcohol subsiding, regained some of her usual "wise and mighty" demeanor. Even while snuggled in Leon's arms with her eyes closed, she still guessed his thoughts and explained softly,

"At its peak, it was indeed the strongest great demon below the true god, but it was too greedy. Unlike other demons who focused on one or two concepts, it chose seven top-level original sins at once, hoping to leap to become a top-tier demon god.

"Although its talent was exceptional and it actually touched upon seven original sin-level concepts simultaneously, its hierarchy was ultimately lacking, unable to harness all seven original sins at once, which made its individual abilities spread too thin.

"For Anomalous Objects of the same level, their abilities mostly specialize in one or one main and one supplementary. Its seven concepts had almost the same intensity, so it's normal that its upper limit couldn't compare with others. Or, one could say, having such dispersed abilities but still squeezing into the top hundred in the numbering system is already quite a testament to its exceptional talent."

So that's how it was…

After recalling the situation with the Black Goat, a realization flashed through Leon's eyes, but he quickly shook his head.

"But it's still in the top hundred, a higher ranking surely implies a higher difficulty. Director, you have the number 004 and 013, even if I gather all the sheep's… uh... gather all the Black Goat's parts, it's far from comparable."

Hearing Leon's words, the red-haired director couldn't help but open her eyes and give him a brief glance back.

Exactly, an Anomalous Object barely in the top hundred can't compare to number 004, the [Twelve Ant Nests], or number 013, the [Slaughter Blood Hair]. But if it were anyone else, would they think of comparing with me first?

"Not necessarily incomparable."

Without exposing Leon's inadvertently revealed "ambition," she snuggled into the warm embrace behind her, then closed her eyes again, narrating in a serene tone,

"The numbers of Anomalous Objects can change. That number 013 Anomalous Object was originally numbered 116. After it fell into my hands and went through some events, it transformed into the 013 Anomalous Object."

116 became 013? Such significant progress!

Hearing the red-haired director's words, Leon couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, full of curiosity as he asked,

"You actually skipped over a hundred ranks… Director, what did you do?"

What did I do…

The red-haired director shook her head at Leon's question, didn't answer, and instead slightly turned over. She reached into Leon's collar, untied the hair fastened around his neck, and pinched the end of that red hair, lightly touching Leon's fingertip.

[Name: Slaughter Blood Hair-941026 (Slaughter, Crimson)]

[Appearance: A strand of bright red hair, if finely kneaded with the soul, it emanates a faint scent of blood, along with the vengeful curse and insults of an old man.]

[Ability: Slaughter proliferation, Crimson Domain]

[Cost: While you remain sane, you will be ceaselessly cursed by those you have killed.]

[File: After the failed descent of the Crimson Lord, the previous Taurus Director collected its remnants and crafted this growth-type Anomalous Object. For each human killed by the bearer, a new controllable strand of blood hair is added.

"Due to the harsh growth conditions, even after two generations of bearers, totaling 130 years of nurturing, the number of Slaughter Blood Hair barely exceeded ten thousand. The effect it exhibited was not proportional to the precious materials consumed, and it was once considered a complete failure.

"But in the Ophiuchus Eroded Nation incident, the third bearer of the Slaughter Blood Hair, Olivia, was forced to use the Anomalous Object 'Thirteen Ant Nests,' completely destroying the Purification Bureau's Ophiuchus Sub-bureau and the East Carleighwen Kingdom, bringing the blood hair count to one billion two hundred ninety-six million overnight, a figure almost identical to the population of the East Carleighwen Kingdom before its fall.]

[Evaluation: This is the most dangerous and terrifying Anomalous Object you have seen so far. If the bearer wishes, they can slaughter every living creature in the entire capital within five seconds.]

[Contamination Value: Indeterminate, increases with the number of activated blood hair.]

!!! A billion two hundred ninety-six million… people!!!

…

"It seems you already know the answer."

Feeling Leon's body suddenly stiffen and his arms unconsciously loosen, the red-haired director sighed softly, then gently pushed away Leon's arms, leaving behind the long-lost warm embrace. She sat up from the sofa, speaking calmly,

"Do you want to leave the Virgo Bureau?"

Gazing into Leon's eyes, which were filled with unparalleled shock, the red-haired director, her cheeks still slightly flushed with alcohol, gently suggested,

"If you want to work somewhere else, Beverly, the director of the Lion Sub-bureau, is quite familiar with me and very interested in your abilities. I can recommend you there, ensuring similar treatment as here.

"She, except for liking snacks too much, doesn't have anything too outrageous in her past, and is an undeniably good person. You should be able to do well over there…"

"Director."

Interrupting the red-haired director, Leon hesitantly inquired,

"Is the Thirteen Ant Nests... that number 004 Anomalous Object? What is the relationship between the East Carleighwen Kingdom and the Northern Carleighwen Kingdom? What exactly was the Ophiuchus Eroded Nation incident?"

"Regarding these…"

After staring at Leon for a moment, the red-haired director's lips moved slightly, then she turned her head slightly and explained in sequence:
