As the situation at Diamondz Corps Headquarters got under control by Daimon Police and Jin heading the cleanup, the battle at Mount Workshop finally started to see some results. Even though soldiers from Diamondz or mercenaries hired by Diamondz had started to stop attacking because there were no returns other than absolute control of the front gates of the workshop, they were still stationed there, not allowing any friendlies to go in nor out of Mount Sunn.

It was not until the acting CEO of Diamondz Corps Headquarters finally gave the order to cease and withdraw, enabling the tired soldiers on the battlefield to retreat. Old Flammet and his dear apprentice also have the chance to take a breather from all this commotion as the two of them gave a celebratory punch for holding it out.

The rest of the Mechanoids who were under their control seemed to be elated as well but the only one who was more than happy about this entire situation was actually Jin. This was because the acting Director of Diamondz Corps was none other than the secretary herself who had decided to turn the tables for his Grey Bears when they busted in.

Apparently, Denise said that she had been serving as a partial human cum Mechanoid for more than half a century despite her appearances. Serving both Edmond Diamondz and his father Edmund Diamondz in the process. Considering how she was the most trusted employee in Diamondz Corps, most of the classified information was also under her purview mainly because Edmond Diamondz never wanted to work. All he did was bark orders at her until that she got most of the job done.

This was even more obvious in the past few weeks as she was vital in the coordination of the attack against Mount Sunn right behind the scenes. There was nothing else she could do but accumulate all the pieces of evidence in hopes that one day she could blackmail not only him but also the rest of the board of directors.

And now that Edmond Diamondz is officially out of the picture, she is finally able to wrestle her way to the very top of the Diamondz Corps. Considering how she had been the 'oldest' employee in the upper management, she did not waste time cleaning up the mess that Edmond Diamondz did and with much efficacy as well.

With her partial Mechanoid brain, she was able to throw out orders ten to twenty times faster than the other commanders, activating Security Mechanoids affiliated with the Diamondz within the compound as well in the city. Her true wireless connection to the Diamondz Network enabled her to assess and control all of them and split them into multiple teams for the cleanup.

From security control to reconstruction and cleaning of debris, it was like clockwork to everyone else and reminiscent of the capability that Diamondz Corps used to show in the past before everything was heavily priced, automated and scheduled. All of that could happen because Jin got in contact with her after Yinn's introduction of Denise to him stating that she was the one who could make things work again.

Also, with Jin's current authority, he ensured Denise of the revenge she could get from all the blackmail evidence that she had acquired through the years. Initially sceptical, Denise did not trust Jin a single bit. It was not after that he showed put Archduke on speed dial that the ex-secretary could finally believe that Jin was speaking the truth.

With Dyke's blessing, Denise boldly took charge of the Diamondz Corps and started to show signs of hidden leadership that she never thought she could have. However, all of those were just the beginning as it was pretty obvious to Denise that Jin and Archduke Dyke wants not her just in that position but as a puppet to their schemes too.

Unfortunately for her, that moment of greed to hold the position had unknowingly made her the minion of Jin in this Virtual Simulation and forever becoming his and Dyke's puppet when she signed the contract form. The situation was in chaos and Jin took that as an opportunity to force her to sign it so that she could continue with what she had was fantasised.

That also meant that Jin and the other Grey Bears could finally have a good rest as they had secured the cooperation of a newly minted CEO handling the few largest Mechanoid manufacturing company in this current state of simulation. Of course, not everything was a trail of flowers as Jin knew that there would be many who wished to covert that position even though Denise had been named acting director by the Archduke.

Accidents can happen and if they are not careful, Jin could lose his pawn the week he got it. But for now, they were being escorted to a nearby hotel which Diamondz Corps has ties with and they finally get to rest as the two teams exchanged exciting events that happened to them.

Apparently, Lynn and the others had gotten into the research facility without much incident. With Yinn's directive, they were able to slowly but stealthfully knocked down the guards without too much fuss and trouble. They were some shadow assassinations by Lynn to hasten the pace but most of it was a necessity to avoid any noise. When Tellie and Click heard their stories, their eyes looked uneasily towards Jin as if they had gotten the short end of the stick for this bargain.

This was because Click and Tellie were meant to gather up with the Research Team after creating some ruckus while Jin hold the fort down at the lower floors. But because of what had happened, there was no way they could move up to assist and Yinn had to make do with whatever resources they had.

Page was undoubtedly their trump card as her nanobots could temporarily force information out of the researchers and their access cards, allowing them to move through without much trouble. That was when they saw the infamous Crystal Dragon that appeared in all of the news the entire day.

Even though the chaos had more or less died down at Diamondz Corps, there were a hundred and one things in Jin's mind and they were not getting any lesser the more they discussed among themselves.
