Tongi, Marco

マルコー・トーニ

His real name is Marco Togni. He serves as an agent of Section 2 and acts as Angelica's handler. After being suspended from military service due to an injury to his left eye, Marco was recommended by his friend Dr. Bianchi to become the handler of Angelica, the first child assassin of Section 2. While caring for Angelica, Marco told her stories about "The Prince of the Land of Pasta," a fictional prince who ate only pasta. He spent a great deal of time searching for ideas for the story. This fascinated his girlfriend at the time, Patricia, who later wrote and published the storybook "The Prince of the Land of Pasta"; Marco bought a copy and read it to Angelica. As time passed, Marco witnessed Section 2 develop into an effective combat unit and observed Angelica's tremendous potential as an assassin. Sadly, Angelica was also the first girl to experience the side effects of the conditioning process, particularly long-term memory loss. Disgusted by the many setbacks that followed, Marco felt that any further effort was in vain and had no desire to continue, adopting an impersonal and critical approach to Angelica's training.
