After discussing the matter regarding Soulium and many of his proposed theory regarding of it and it's use, Sigurd took a tour of Otto's laboratory, where he saw many bizarre and, well, unsettling experiments in progress.

The tittle, [Mad Scientist], suited Otto quite well.

Then, Sigurd declined Otto's offer to accompany him and decided to go for some fresh air.

After all, even during a sightseeing trip, he didn't want to spend all his time in Otto's dark and eerie laboratory.

It was a rare opportunity to relax his mind without that troublesome little white fluff by his side.

Back on the upper level of the base, under the sunlight, a graceful and elegant maidservant awaited by the door.

"You've been waiting here all this time?"

"It's my duty, Lord Sigurd."

"You've worked hard. Let's find a place to sit. How about going to... Hmmm... How about we go to the strongest Valkryie place?"

"Of course, please, allow me to lead the way."

Rita smiled, her slender fingers wrapped in black lace gloves, and gracefully gestured to the side.

Her delicate figure and the faint fragrance that came with the breeze were truly captivating.

Sigurd couldn't help but take another look.

Upon careful consideration, most of the girls he had met in this world were rather plain.

Kiana was certainly attractive, but her deeds didn't pique Sigurd's interest.

Dr. Einstein and Dr. Tesla—Einstein was a friendly acquaintance, and Tesla was a celebrity; they were both good-looking, but Sigurd treated them with the perspective of an elder or a friend, so he had no particular thoughts about them.

But Rita, standing before him, well, she was quite the sight, and it would be a loss not to look a little longer.

"Lord Sigurd. why have you been staring at Rita?" Rita, with her keen senses, couldn't help but turn and ask.

Sigurd stroked his chin and casually replied, "You're beautiful."

"Thank you for your compliment, Rita felt truly honored."

"I'm just stating the truth. When I was young, you are the type of girl I would like the most."

Rita turned her head back and continued to look ahead, her eyebrows raising slightly, unsure how to respond.

Should she offer herself to the boss?

"Don't misunderstand, I'm just speaking the truth. You are beautiful, obedient, and have a subservient aura, it's no wonder why many other like you."

"Ahaha, are you referring to the Valkyries at headquarters? They're just joking around; Rita is just an ordinary member among the Valkyries."

Rita giggled and quickened her pace.

Sigurd looked up, not at the sky, but thinking about the captains in another world who were eager to see more of such a view—good taste indeed; we seem to have similar preferences!
