Ministry of Foreign Affairs staff

***---***

I arrived at the Self-Defense Forces Nerima garrison about fifteen minutes earlier than the scheduled time of 10:00, but the Ministry of Foreign Affairs staff who were assigned to Volzard had already arrived.

There were three staff members, two men and one woman, who would be assigned to the International Development Cooperation Section 4 of the International Cooperation Bureau.

The International Development Cooperation Division prepares plans for loans and grants financial assistance and technical cooperation for other countries, and it seems they negotiate and coordinate with local and international organizations, it also seems that it is further divided into several sections depending on the region.

The members selected this time were members of the newly established section, which was expected to act as a bridge between different worlds.

Miura-san, who was the leader of the three of them, was an honest man in his early 40s, with a square face, silver-rimmed square glasses, and slightly gray hair that was neatly cut and parted in 7:3.

"I'm Miura. I think that I will be working with you in many ways from now on, and I look forward to working with you."

"I'm Kokubu. To you as well, it's nice to meet you."

"I'd like to introduce my subordinates. Kadokura, who has an unnecessarily good physique, was a rugby player when he was a student."

"Nice to meet you, Kokubu-kun."

"You as well."

I shook hands with Kadokura-san, but as I was told, his grip was strong and my hands hurt.

"Then, this is Yamanobe Kana."

"I'm Yamanobe, nice to meet you."

"Ah, I'm Kokubu, it's nice to meet you."

Yamanobe-san has her hair that is a little longer than her shoulders tied back, giving the impression that she is a bit stubborn.

:The three of us will divide the work, listen to the students' requests, investigate the local situation, and proceed with negotiations with the local people. Basically, we plan to have the teachers cooperate with the interpretation, but we may ask some of the students to cooperate with gathering information about the city."

"Yes, some of my classmates are already accustomed to life in Volzard, and some of them have actually started working there. I think those people know more about Volzard than I do."

"Is that so? I thought that Kokubu-kun, who arrived at Volzard first, was the most knowledgeable."

"Since I've been scurrying around here and there, I didn't have enough time to take a leisurely look around the town of Volzard. Even so, I am on good terms with some of the people in town, so I will cooperate as far as necessary."

"I would like to ask for your cooperation. It's true that we are a little perplexed because we have almost no prior knowledge of this country."

"Basically, I will deal with it from Volzard's side, but I can't decide various permissions, so I think I'll have to check with the Lord Klaus-san first."

"That's fine. It's a world where the environment and culture are different, so I'd like to avoid a situation where there's a conflict as much as possible, so I don't have any plans to rush forward."

I thought they had received an explanation in advance, but I explained the procedures for imparting magic power and moving in the shadows again.

The three of them each brought two large carry cases filled with their personal belongings, and a rear car the size of a cart containing equipment.(TN:A rear car is a trailer made for pulling behind a bike.)

"I will have my genus carry the luggage, so please hold on to me empty-handed. It's pitch black inside the shadow space, so please don't let go of my hand."

Before I moved with the three of them, I had Mart and the others carry their luggage.

The three of them looked relieved when they saw Mart and the others carrying their luggage.

Unexpectedly, Miura-san seemed to be the most curious and asked me a question.

"Kokubu-kun, are those Kobolds okay?"

"Yes, they were originally Kobolds, but now they have died and become undead."

"So, are they immortal?"

"No, probably, but after I die, I feel that all my genus will not be able to maintain their existence."

"It means that they will be with you even after you die. Somehow, it's a very nice story."

"I won't know until that time comes, but I feel very happy."

After carrying the luggage, I went to Klaus-san's office ahead of time, and after confirming that there were no other visitors, I guided the three of them to Volzard.

Takagi-san, the counselor, and Beatriche were already there, with Satou-sensei as an interpreter.

(TN:Again, Isekai language is while Japanese is "" .)

Klaus-san, who welcomed them with his arms spread out, was dressed as usual, so if you just look at him, he looked like a veteran adventurer.

The three of them who shook hands with him seemed to be surprised at Klaus-san's appearance and his rough palms.



"Y, yes, thank you very much."

Miura-san and the others probably heard about it from the secretary who was accompanying Vice Minister Shiota, but meeting Klaus-san in person must have been unexpected.

When I first met him, I wondered what kind of bad old man he was.

"Our purpose is to get to know Volzard and to let people know about Japan."



"Thank you very much. I intend to introduce traditional items from Japan as well as advanced items."















"Th, that's, it's common sense in Japan ..."



Miura-san's face changed when he heard Klaus-san's words translated by Satou-sensei.

"Wa, wait a minute. Takagi-kun's words are his personal words, the Japanese Government is truly grateful to Kokubu-kun."



"Th, that's ... We were discussing the specific amount ..."



It's frustrating, but right now I couldn't even find a way to retort.

Beatriche was also holding my arm with a pouting face, but she couldn't seem to find a good counterargument against Klaus-san.









Takagi-san, who heard Klaus-san's words, was still not convinced, and had a slightly dissatisfied expression.

After thinking about it for a while, Takagi-san was about to open his mouth when we suddenly heard a warning bell ringing.

Kan kan kan! Kan kan kan! Kan kan kan!

Klaus-san's expression tightened at once at the warning bell announcing the approach of a monster.

Satou-sensei's face stiffened as he probably heard it when the Orcs approached.

[ Kent-sama, it really got us. It's a griffon. ]

[ What kind of monster is a Griffon? ]

[ A Griffon is a monster with the upper body of an eagle and the lower body of a lion, and is twice as big as Nero. It attacked all at once from the sky, kidnapped one of the garrison guards and flew away. ]
