"Well! I'll be keeping an eye on your next game! Dark Elf Cayley will do the commentary! Watch it or bet on it! We're all going to have fun!

With the familiar voice by my side amidst the cheers, the only word that can describe my feelings right now is this.

I'm sleepy.

Repeated day after day, if not all-nighters, close to it, will naturally make you sleep-deprived.

Under the bright sun, under a tent with a white roof at a field day in the sunshine, I lean back in my pipe chair.

The end result of a week of voluntarily taking on other tasks in addition to dungeon conquest.

Even a body bolstered by magic crests is tough.

Since I entered the workforce, I've often heard the phrase "taking care of your health is your responsibility.

You've got a lot of time to prepare for the event, but now that the opening ceremony is over and the event is going on smoothly, you can finally close your eyes for a moment.

There are members sitting in chairs just like me, running the event.

Unfortunately, Suela, Memoria and the other members of the party, who are familiar with the event, are not here because they are not running it, but participating in it.

So you'll be working alone on your day off.

But even if a potion can keep you awake, it doesn't make you any less sleepy.

You rub your fingertips a couple of times around your eyes, and as you open your eyes, the sight you see is subtly captured through your heavy eyelids.

The fantasy employees are surrounded by a huge projection screen with drinks and snacks in their hands.

In the vicinity, food stalls run by employees of various underground facilities are lined up.

Under the tent labeled "Operation", I can see from a distance that the place is quite busy.

Even the testers on the other side of the picture, who showed some initial disapproval at first, seem to be enjoying themselves now.

"It's going well, isn't it?

"Supervisor.

As I was looking at the results of my work, the management quickly appeared behind me without a trace.

The old me would have panicked, but I'm used to it now.

You'll be able to sit up and face Superintendent Evvia without panicking.

"The banquet you planned for us seems to be going well.

It was also because of the assistance of the instructors and supervisors.

You put it together. You should be proud of that.

"Yes.

It all started about a month ago.

With Amelia's advice, I reviewed the event's contents, wrote up a proposal, and brought it to the lab first.

It was what I would call a liaison.

When I went to the lab as a tester, they looked at me suspiciously, but as soon as they saw the contents of my proposal, their eyes changed.

From then on, the conversation in the lab proceeded with a bang, and the proposal was completed with further improvements.

I think that's pretty interesting. A banquet to test demons in a part of the dungeon to be renovated? To add to the excitement, the company will reward testers with a variety of armor for their use. We will have the information of actual battle data of the prototype monster.

I remember walking up to the supervisor with it in hand.

The supervisor looks at the screen as if impressed, and I follow him to the screen.

At the end of the screen is the coliseum.

On a circular stone stage, like in Rome, testers are fighting on a stone stage.

Some are one-on-one, some one-on-one.

If you win, you will receive points and a higher reward than usual.

However, your opponents will be a new type of demon invented by the laboratory and selected from the army held by your instructors and the general.

It's not a simple matter to defeat them.

You have to think carefully about each and every battle, sometimes you have to be bold and fight through it, or you will be easily defeated and injured.

But this is just a party (event).

We've taken all the necessary medical precautions to avoid shirking.

But it's even more popular than I expected.

Since the game is based on some dragon hunting style, it is easy for the testers to become familiar with the game.

It's a great way to train the testers, and it's a great attraction for them to have fun, and it's a great way for our employees to relax and kill three birds with one stone.

You even give them a glimpse of motivational bait. Well thought out.

"This is a banquet (event), it's supposed to be fun,

"Kuku, I bet.

The prize armor is naturally lavish, but the rewards are not the only ones.

I figured that the testers, who are earthlings, would not be interested in armor alone.

So we'll hang the bait.

But I didn't think you'd actually have it all.

"It's cheap compared to a magic sword or a god's potion.

A red carpeted platform has been set up next to the tent labeled "Operation".

You're going to be able to find a lot of prizes, from expensive luxury cars to cheap branded bags, all of which were submitted by me in response to a questionnaire about what the testers currently want.

You'll be able to find out what you want from the testers' point of view, rather than armor such as magic swords.

The company provided me with a questionnaire that asked me to fill out and submit what I wanted without setting a monetary limit.

The testers at the time were skeptical, but the sight of the actual product piled up in front of them was a sight to behold.

Just thinking about how much money this company was getting from this pile of prizes alone was enough to make me feel poor.

I can't help but feel that I am overdoing it, as I know the actual prices.

That's how much the items are all there that are a little too expensive to justify such an easy price tag.

And they won't have all of this in their hands.

Yes, though.

Things are not as they seem.

I watch and listen to the supervisor's words and demeanor and inwardly agree with him.

Watching the supervisor patting the hood of the luxury car as if to tell you that it's already mine, you are convinced that some of the giveaway items in this pile of prizes are not in the hands of the testers.

To the fantasy employees of this company, all of the earth-grown substitutes are unknown to them.

Even a single cake is quite delightful and you are less hesitant to buy it.

It's quite a show. It's also been fun for us.

"It's better than anything else.

In addition, in this event the torso is also out of the company's official gambling.

With a tablet in the hands of the employees who are watching the game without fighting, bets will be placed on whether the tester will win or the monster will win.

There are also bets on how many minutes it will take to beat the monster.

Personally, I'd prefer to see things work out the way I want them to.

"Hm, do you worry about the feckless ones?

"Don't say that, they just don't stand in line to be abandoned.

While the testers and employees have fun, my purpose is being fulfilled.

The purpose of this event is not only to improve our testers' abilities, but also to have fun.

This event is intended to interact with other testers.

Not so much a drinking vacation, but a batonication.

A sense of solidarity in battle.

The arena has several rules, one of which is that fixed parties are forbidden.

This has two purposes: to disrupt betting expectations and to encourage interaction.

It was a gamble to see if it would work, but it seems to have worked.

"Looks like it.

The prospect has turned out to be a good one.

Through the screen, above the arena, Kaido and a man from another party were running away from the giant bull as fast as they could.

He was a member of the party that got into a fight with Kaido the other day.

I don't know what the cause and effect was, but they didn't seem to be arguing.

Instead

"'Help me!

"Hey! Stop running around! I bet on you guys to win!

"Run, run! I'm costing you guys a month's living for your victory!

"Stop! At this rate, you'll be confirmed to stay in the lab!

They are playing a full-blown roar.

The initially acrimonious atmosphere is replaced by the good fortune of Kaido's rescue of the man, and gradually the bickering ceases.

They help each other in a pinch.

And now they get along? The fleeing figure is running away as fast as he can without kicking his opponent off.

The sight of it makes the jealousy fly.

The ogre yells, the dark elf man gets excited, and the lizardman man screams in despair.

That demon is trying to get his hands on a magic sword. The odds are ...... three hundred and fifty times as high. You got greedy, Kaido.

I guess so. He's a Hexenbiest that was meant to protect the deep realm. Even you are not going to be able to defeat it now.

"A few direct hits that would make the mineral tree work at full speed, and when it stops moving, it would be a blow to the vital point.

The lustrous black lustrous fur flicks off Kaido's magic with the force of the lunge, and the white unblemished horns, contrary to the fur, build large cracks spreading across the wall against which they collide.

The only redeeming feature is that the momentum of the lunge is too strong to maneuver, but by the time the battered Kaido and the others are ready, it has completed its turn.

I don't care if it's Instructor Kio and the others seeing this, but I'd prefer to avoid a head-on collision.

If you can see that far, the day isn't far off. I'm going. You're in charge now, so do your best to stay alert.

I understand.

I'm also looking forward to your other project.

The supervisor who came to check on you will disappear just as quickly as he came.

The invisibility of the shifting magic movement is linked to its proficiency.

The smile you gave me on your way out was purely based on your expectations of why I am in the operation.

I'm not sure if the pressure and expectations are the same ......, so I'm going to go on my rounds.

If you are asked to work hard by such a being, you have to work.

I will work as much as is expected of me.

Circulate your magic and shake off your lassitude as you leave.

Don't forget to call out to the nearby steering committee.

If it's an emergency, there's telepathic communication.

If it's in the area I'm using this time, I can be there within five minutes.

But I'm the field supervisor and the supervisor is in charge.

If there's something I can't handle, he'll have no problem handling it.

I'm walking through the event site with no armor and only a mineral tree on my back.

Oh, so Kitamiya and Minami are working together?

On the way there, you can see the familiar faces challenging the seal-like demons on the screen.

There are four of them, and besides Kitamiya and Minami, there are two other women who are wizards as well.

"As I recall, those two...

"You're a member of my party.

"? Oh, it's you.

While I was searching my memory for a face and name to match, I was approached and turned around to see a woman standing with a paper cup in hand.

She was indeed

"Was it Kanzaki, I believe? The name below

"Kei Kanzaki Kei. Kei.

She was the only female party leader among the testers.

She was a wizard herself, but I remember hearing that she had recently converted to an archer.

I wonder what the leader wanted to do with me.

So, what does Ms. Kanzaki want with me? If you want to check the game schedule or something, you should ask the receptionist, not me.

Honestly, there was almost no connection between me and Kanzaki.

I'm already suspected of being two-timed, so I'm one of those guys that the woman Kanzaki wouldn't want to get close to.

I'm embarrassed about loving them, but I have nothing to be ashamed of.

Breaking up with them or something like that would be a problem.

So you can't blame me for my tone of voice.

"I just wanted to ask you something, don't be so alarmed.

What you want to hear?

She must have a strong character, or maybe she has a strong personality, or maybe she has a strong combination of eyes, short hair and height, which must have made her very popular with the same s*x.

The question she would like to ask me is: " How do you guys get along like at a party?

...... How do I get along with you guys like your parties?

What?

After some thought, the words that came out were not life advice, but business advice.

Now our party is about to break up.

And I thought I was in for an unexpected hassle with the additional words that came out.
