'That probably would've looked better if Gemi was awake, with the twins and all...'
Cole felt like saying this out loud, but he wasn't that rude or dense. He's no Defense-type Mechanica or a Harem protagonist.
Mini then gestured to Cole to follow him, again.
The people around them still didn't notice them so Cole just decided that it was probably Mini's ability or something.
But who knows, it could be that they were ordered to pretend as if the twins were just air. And they are "Gemini" which is an airy sign.
A few seconds and they reached a quite sizable room made out of tinted black glass in the middle of the entire floor.
It's walls went up all the way to the ceiling but it had floating screens with motivational quotes or posters and deadlines and important dates listed on them.
There screens slowly rotated around the glass wall but there was one screen that filled up an entire section.
What Cole could see on the screen was...
『Available Missions:

Other so-called missions, were constantly being swiped off the screen and then replaced with a new one.
Cole noticed that the difficulty was rated with four-pointed stars, with the black ones representing higher difficulty than the white ones.
He also observed the... interesting mission details but continued following Mini.
When they neared the room, he noticed the golden plate on the wall, right next to the door.
It simply read 'Gemini Office' and was then followed by the usual symbol.
The door slid to the side and when Cole entered, he saw that it was quite different from what he imagined.
The design and furniture was obviously from the〈Times Zone〉, along with all the game covers, magazines, and manga that were sprawled on the floor at the back of the room.
'...Nice to know they like it, too.'
Cole thought as he set Gemi down on a black sofa on the right side of the room.
He wondered why there were two sofas in a single room but decided to stop it at that.
He sat on the other sofa while Mini started turning around on one of the swivel chairs located at the back.
"... May we start having a talk or something?"
"We may but we have to wait for Gemi to wake up first."
Just as Mini said that, Gemi started waking up and sat up. She rubbed her eyes for a bit before looking around.
"... Oh... We're back in the office already?"
Gemi then hopped off the sofa and then sat down on her swivel chair.
"Okay, what are your demands?"
"?"
Mini got straight to the point without beating around the bush but Cole wasn't fully informed about anything so he didn't exactly get what he was trying to say.
Despite this, he maintained his usual cold face in front of people he wasn't close with ever since coming here in the first place.
"...What do you mean?"
This time Gemi responded.
"Well, you're one of the candidates for the position of 〈Libra〉, Head of Department 7. It's a lot of work but Lucille said that you would be able to handle it and that you should be very compatible with them."
Cole started to get the pictures and felt like beating up both that Crux guy and Lucille for not telling him the full details and for causing the situation in the first place.
But there was one last thing he didn't understand.
"Compatible with who?"
"Libra, the〈Zodiac Spirit〉Wait, did Crux not explain anything to you at all?"
Cole shook his head and he looked as if he didn't care about it at all because of his nonchalant and cold face.
""*sigh*...""
The twins sighed at the same time, with obvious disappointment in their voices.
"Eh?"
They then instantly appeared behind Cole and lifted him up by his arms.
Or at least tried to, their heights were drastically different and so we're their weights.
"...Just follow."
Gemi just said to which Cole did obey to.
This had started the encounter that Cole would loath, yet treasure to this day.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
