Vampires, before I joined this company, I had the image of a black cloak tossed around in the dark of night with canine teeth in my mouth, attacking people.

But that prehistoric image was cast aside a long time ago.

At least none of the vampire acquaintances I've ever had would attack a human being at any point.

In fact, most of them are not vampires like vampires, shall we say?

Weakness to the sun was common, but not fatal.

He walked unconcernedly in front of the cross, and I've heard that garlic is difficult to eat in public simply because of its manners, but it is edible.

I've even gone swimming with them.

A stake through the heart would be fatal to most living things, vampires or not.

These are the vampires I've met.

For example.

"Don't talk so fast and outrageous.

Is that so?

That's right.

"I see.

I'm sure you'll be happy to know that my wife (Memoria) is leisurely sipping her after-dinner coffee next to me.

It's a good thing that you're able to have a good time with them.

The conversation was with a slightly natural Memoria, who tilted her head slightly as she listened back, and finally answered with a rueful smile.

In a story where vampires are the main character, this kind of daily life is not depicted and is always bloody by default, but this place is not related to such an extraordinary life.

I've been in this company since I joined, and my common sense has been shattered. Is it really that easy to be a vampire?

"If you ignore the issue of money, you can become one if you endure three days and three nights of extreme pain?

That's pretty heavy stuff, man. It's definitely not something I would ever say is easy to do. And the way you just said it, we'll do it at the wedding, right?

You're remodeling your body to change your species, so that's about all that's going to happen. The groom will have to endure that as the ceremony goes on, but don't worry, it won't go wrong unless you're very incompatible. ...... I've heard that sometimes people go crazy.

"Hey Memoria, what did I say at the last minute? You may have said it softly, but I heard it. Don't laugh it off. If you're telling the truth, one wrong move, and there's disaster waiting for you.

Trained since I joined the company, my body is far from hard of hearing, and I can't miss the disturbing words.

I can't miss the disturbing words. I chop Memoria in the head, which she doesn't usually show with her sales smile.

Even though I've had the experience of rebuilding my body, one experience is enough for me.

I can't forget the indescribably horrifying sensation I felt when I tried to melt myself back into my body, even if I wanted to forget it.

You're not ready to make a contract with a spirit, but you're also very close to becoming a vampire. Well, I guess that's what it means to stop being a human.

You can either throw away a human being or endure a lot of pain and throw away a human being.

I don't think it is only the coffee's fault that the warm coffee you drink while being confronted with such a choice feels bitter.

I have decided to do it, so I will do it through, but the flavor of an uphill battle awaits me in this coffee.

I think that this is the baptism of taking two wives to a rear-end, and I think about my future plans.

The meeting with my parents or even their parents' meeting ended yesterday, and the issue of marriage has progressed to a practical stage, such as securing a place for the ceremony.

Due to the fact that I want to talk about the wedding a little bit more, I'm not working today and tomorrow.

It's not a bad idea to keep talking to my father-in-law and his family, but I think it would be a waste of time to do so.

I'm wondering what to do, but I can't think of anything to do.

Normally, in my free time, I would hide in dungeons to pass the time.

If you think about it calmly, you don't have any hobbies in mind, and I'm worried that you've become a workaholic because you only think of work first.

I'm worried that I'm a workaholic. What research?

"...... doing research on the brave

"Brave?

I remembered Myitt's job and wondered what she was researching, so I broached the subject, but what I had in mind didn't happen.

Then, as I hesitated for a moment, Myitt's eyes narrowed, and I don't think it was just my imagination.

For a moment, Myitt's previously calm mood turned swift.

You'll be able to see if your question was that bad.

You're going to be able to find out if there's anything you can do to help.

"I see.

I'm not sure if that thought came out on her face or not, but I'm convinced by Meit's words as she explains the reason for the awkward swallowing atmosphere.

Did you think that much in the previous moment?

After all, the enemy's trump card, the study of brave men has been done since long ago. They are the spearheads of our battle against the demon king's army and are the weapons of war. It's strange that you don't study that extraordinary power.

However, he quickly returned to a calm expression and proceeded slowly to tell me the story, but I agreed with him that I was aware of the situation, but I wouldn't listen to it in depth.

I noticed that look, but I agreed that I wouldn't be asking too much.

Not everyone wants to be asked about their work, and not everyone wants to be asked about their relationships.

You listen to what they tell you to flush it down the drain.

Surely, the reason earthlings are summoned from other worlds is to advance the nation's war effort, but why would they need to summon ordinary people living on earth?

I wondered if he couldn't strengthen his own warriors with divine blessings, or why a being not involved in battle could be so capable.

It's a story that could be dismissed as a fantasy, but if it exists in reality, I'd like to know what I can find out.

As I investigated, I found out that there were two general things that are required of a hero. The first is a higher level of magical aptitude, which indicates the limits of a brave man's growth and how well he is growing. And the other was the gift or skill given by the gods when you are summoned from another world. I am mainly studying this God-given skill.

I've heard that skills are a derivative of what you've acquired, but are they different from God's skills?

Skills are the result of a process.

My cries and slashes were born out of kendo and kenjutsu training.

I'm sure you can understand the difference in nuance from the way Meit-san speaks, and I have a vague idea of what she wants to say, but I'll listen again for confirmation.

You'll be able to find out if you're a good candidate for the job. A gift is like an ability given to a brave person by God, unlike a skill. You can think of it as something that was given to you when you realized it wasn't a process.

"I see.

After all, as I imagined, the skills of a brave man are only given and not acquired.

Then the next question is why they are studying such things, which is also somewhat understandable.

Is it an artificial imposition of skills, or is it the creation of a gift?

Yes, that's right. The generation of the gift without the hand of our Lord God, that is my research.

"Surely then, what's the memorandum of ...... for a force multiplier?

Jiro-san, that's enough to talk about work, isn't it? I'm going off topic.

"Oops.

The ability to artificially grant skills would open up a variety of tactics and strategies.

I thought it would make dungeon conquering easier, but this isn't something we'd talk about on holiday.

If I couldn't stop the memoria, I wouldn't have.

Is this the time to worry about the workaholics?

What you did with me, you just talked into your usual habits.

No, thank you for your valuable talk.

I hope you enjoyed it, even if it was only an overview. Suela, can I get some more coffee?

"Yes.

I think it's cute that Memoria is a little lonely and tries to get my attention.

And as if to separate the conversation from the end, Meitte also asks for more coffee.

We should get back to the beginning of the story, but we can't go ahead with it now that we don't have enough members.

I don't have a religious or cultural problem unless I'm a dark elf or a vampire, but I might have to do something about it when I get married.

I would have to wait until after Mr. Gray and Ms. Mille woke up to talk about the details of the arrangements.

Good morning, groom.

"...... good morning

"Good morning, Mr. Gray, Mr. Mirrle.

Mr. Gray and Ms. Mille also woke up at the right time.

There are more of them, so I guess this is the way to go.

"Groom.

"Yes? What's up, Mr. Gray?

"Do you have time after this?

He spoke to me about it before I could say anything else.

In the back of my mind, I thought that this might be the first time Mr. Gray had spoken to me, but when he asked me, I remembered my schedule.

I'll be fine,

Then I want you to come along for a little while.

"Where to?

"to get materials for my daughter's wedding dress.

"Huh?

I thought it would take some time for us to talk about it, but it seems that this is not the case.

I thought it was no problem and replied, but then something unexpected came out.

What is it that you are going to get materials for your wedding dress?

I guess the question was on his face.

Oh, I see. Don't you know your groom? We vampires have a habit of going out to get materials for our partner's wardrobe if he or she agrees to marry us! To show the rest of our relatives how much we love them by the gift! Well, I don't doubt your love for your son-in-law, Memoria, but that doesn't mean there aren't vampires among the old people who look down on people. d*mn it! We recognized your son-in-law yesterday, so it doesn't matter!

That's why Mille explained it to me.

So that's why it's culturally understandable and acceptable for a marriage to have such implications.

It takes time to make the wedding dress, so we need to prepare the materials as soon as possible. Let's go to the dungeon for Memoria! So let's make sure you prove to your son-in-law that he's awesome! Oh, don't worry, I'll make sure to get one for Suela, too!

"Did you know, Memoria?

"No, that's a first.

"Me too.

I asked them if this is normal for Isreal, but they didn't seem to know.

"Of course! I'm not going to tell this to unmarried vampires. It's the truth that's only revealed to them when they decide to get married!

It's a secret that exists in every tribe. In the past, tribes that publicized this have shied away from it, and fewer men and women have gotten married because of it, so it's a secret that's only for married people.

I'm not sure if that's the case or not.

That's what I think.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do.

I was planning to prepare a normal wedding dress, but there is no denying that I would do it.

If that's the case, I understand. What materials do I need?

It's your son-in-law's job to look into it, but it's okay! We don't even tell you to do everything yourself, because we're not going to say anything terrible! My father-in-law, Gray, will help me get the materials and I, my mother-in-law, will help make the costumes!

It's a surprise! You're not sure how to communicate with this taciturn Gray, who is so excited, but wonders if it's right to say it in front of him.

"Well, in that case, we can help you, too, hey, smilasta.

"Yes, you, I hope that Suela and Memoria will make a great bride.

Suela's parents, Mr. Meitte and Ms. Smilasta also join in so that it should not be bothered.

They are of course happy about it.

Thank you!

That's Mr. Mirrle, the proponent of the thing.

We are completely left behind, but we understand our role.

Is it okay to take on the dungeon for now?

Looking for materials for the bride's outfit, thinking it was a game.

It was like an event mission, and thus I was going to take on the dungeon with my two stepfathers.
