At this kind of time, she wished that she would have ability like Jean where she could separate herself into hundreds of avatars and settle all of this at the same time.

She could create an avatar.

But doing so would take away some of her energy.

She is unlike those people with almost an unlimited reserve of energy in her body that she could uses haphazardly.

She still had to ration and conserve her energy

Splitting herself like that not only would split her attention, it would also split her strength.

She could not create thing from nothing. The energy of the avatar had to be taken from the original. The original lose some of energy

This is usually not a big deal. Since the original body could absorb more energies.

But, there is this limit of how many avatars she could split from her original core of energy. Unless she possesses certain methods, it would be a disadvantageous action for her.

And since she is the head of the Shadow Guards, there is many people that would want to kill her.

Sasha would not be surprised if there is some people that could reverse-engineer the ability of an avatar so that the damage toward the avatar could be transferred into the real body

Some people did not have to worry about this like Death Monarch who could create avatars from Laws.

Just to defeat the avatar of Death Monarch is already incredible enough.

The same could be said for Jean Time Avatar. Jean avatar is created from the manipulation of time.

This is even more ingenuous. And Jean also could manipulate time and not an easy opponent to beat unless you are one level above him.

His mastery of time itself would prove him to be a formidable enemy.  As for Hikigaya, his specialty is always creating illusion.

Who knows? Maybe when you thought you were fighting him when actually you are fighting against smokes and wind

Hikigaya avatar is mostly in the form of mist.

While in that form he could not attack with full power it had the ability to easily dissipate meaning that his true body would rarely ever be in danger.

He is not a coward. He just doesn't like troublesome thing.

Haish, she sighed again inwardly.

She should take a vacation after this.

'Ah' she thought to herself. Should she said something to the Ministry of Welfare to establish some mandatory leave like before the Fall? Five work day and two leave day?

Then she shakes her head.

'I am sure I still had to work' she thought to herself. If she works in an office that would make sense.

But, the work she does is very secretive and it is not like she could just take a break on many things.

If it is small matter maybe she could ignore it for a day or two but the problems of the Shadow Guards are rarely small things.

If she got intel that someone is about to create some superweapon in some secret base, could she just ignore it and said to her subordinate

”Hey, sorry but I will be taking two days leave. Hope that the world would not suffer any calamity in these two days!” Before slamming the door of her office

She could not just ignore it, right?

Most of the thing she deals with is very dangerous and as such, while there is an opportunity for rest, when such intel come to her desk, she needs to track, analyze and also research it

If there is a superweapon that is about to be built, she needs to know who build it? For what purpose?

Who is the supplier?

Where is it? Who is the accomplice?

Would it benefit Pandemonium or not?

That and more

But while her job is stressful there is a few things she likes about her job. At least she doesn't have a boss that keep hounding her.

And at times, she does have time to relax.

She remembers the rest she had at the Grand Canyon. Of course the Grand Canyon is full of monsters down below, but with people of her level as long as she just wanted to enjoy the sunset it would not be a problem

Of course, by enjoying the sunset means she was with someone. A spy. Like her.

Haish…. her life is after all full of darkness and death,

Every once in a while she had to vent out and air out some of her frustration.

'Tch' she clicked her tongue

She resolved that after this problem settled, she needs to train a successor so that she would not be working these hard all the time

She then focusses again her thought and annoyance is slowly rising up in her heart. How much longer?
