Another side Hakone

"Minimize the investigation into the city of Tokyo,

The Isual expedition group that traveled to another world and got a base.

The quartet decided to take a quick break on the first day of their move, and that evening.

Through the tearful efforts of Eshley, the food was somehow prepared.

She struggled with a grain called rice, and grasped the use of unknown cooking utensils such as rice cookers, refrigerators, and gas stoves with a manual in hand.

After somehow preparing the country's meals with the help of the simple cooking recipes provided, the next step was to take a bath.

Using a machine called a water heater, you've filled the water with hot water, and now you're going to bathe with us to take care of Nysia.

When the hot water came out of the slender tubes of the shower and the existence of the hair dryer, it brought her more than a little feminine excitement, even though she was a clergyman.

Then, witnessing technology that didn't exist in the other world, Eshley became impatient.

In just a few hours, she had a taste of an unknown technology.

I didn't prepare this for you to welcome you here.

It's nothing special to people here in this part of the world.

We prepared it because we recognized that this technology is commonplace.

After understanding why a brave man from another world was inconvenienced in Isual, he was quick to judge.

She didn't miss the moment when the two men were free to lay down on the futon bedding to prepare for tomorrow and get Nysia ready for bed.

Using her magically-enhanced body and the recovery magic she wore, she tried to sleep as little as possible and read the manual.

Eshley got only two hours of sleep that day.

She fought off the fatigue in her head with the sugar from the fruit of a banana and managed to learn the country's geography and basic public transportation, as well as the concept of paper money and the use of the smartphone provided.

But isn't the most crowded place in the country that place called Tokyo?

And prepare breakfast for the three people who will wake up at sunrise.

Can Eshley honestly go back to the inconvenience of the original world, while appreciating the convenience of this world? And with a hint of trepidation, I greeted the morning of the day.

Ignorant of the hardships of others, the two men wrinkled their brows.

The breakfast menu on the table consisted of toast and soup, salad, scrambled eggs, bacon and sausage, and even fresh juice in a blender.

She knew from the expression on her face that it would be a poor meal for the two aristocrats, though from the point of view of Eshley, it would be a completely sumptuous breakfast, and inwardly she cursed them not to eat it, but when Nysia began to eat it without saying a word, they did not complain.

With unfamiliar cooking utensils, Eschley, who prepared a minimal breakfast to entertain the cutthroat angel and the nobleman, is impatient to see if this will continue every day, but after finishing the meal, Eschley is discussing future plans behind cleaning up.

It was Majesus who questioned Nisia's policy.

He is very much on the side as a researcher and is blind to the development of new magic.

But he tends to be very reluctant to let his own research be hindered by his vices.

So when he does other work, he often seeks efficiency.

He is also very talented and has a strong knowledge of magic.

Rumor has it that he has mastered some of the magic of the gods, Eshley had heard from the information he had gathered before meeting him.

It was foreseeable that he would bite into Nitsia's policies, but unfortunately, she was in the middle of putting away the dishes.

At this point in time, when all the household chores are falling to Eshley, aside from Nitsia, the treatment of Alben and Majesus is becoming more and more recognized as a servant with the status of a saint.

"We have information from our collaborators. Toukyou is rooted in the hands of the demon king, and it's dangerous to step in there. There will come a day when they will step in, but I don't think the time is right.

"With certain information?

"Yes, especially this building

So there is no problem to have a meeting with only high-ranking beings, and the two men begin to confirm the policy to Nisia.

The two men have a good impression of the cutthroat Nysia at the first opportunity.

This is the result of seeking a place to play an active role.

Normally, the situation should have avoided a fight for credit, but Nitsia does not blame the two men for their actions, and gives them more information.

The reasoning behind the danger of Tokyo, and the data to back it up, is that Alben and Majes looks at the object that is held on the desk from a long, thin, porcelain-white finger.

Is this the headquarters of the Demon King's army? So, shouldn't we focus on this area?

"You're a fool, the enemy's stronghold is not so easy to find out. Realize that, you fool.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a landscape as it is, but to be convinced that it is such a thing, and to determine the information in it is quite impressive.

This is a huge building that I have never seen before.

It was taken from a distance and each gave their opinion in front of the substitute.

But the moment their gazes crossed due to the different nature of the knights and wizards' answers, sparks flew.

The name of the building of the base building is 'MAO corporation', but the building itself is welded, the surroundings are well guarded, and if you do anything carelessly, even a baby will know the consequences.

The two of them, while tasting the after-dinner tea made by Eshley, nonchalantly confirm the policy.

And then, as if to say that he's gotten his way, Majesus turns to Alben with a smug grin on his face.

But it's also not a good thing to leave the enemy in the dark when you know where they are.

But the expression on their faces is exactly the same, as if Arben and Majesus were swapping places.

You can find a lot of people who have a headache due to lack of sleep.

Our goal is to find someone who has the makings of a brave man, there is no need to go to the enemy's land and risk it all. We should move to the west and search for them.

"The demon king will not leave a person with the makings of a brave man behind. I suggest that we should search the hunting grounds for the Toukyou and other animals, despite the risks, if you think there is any food left in the hunting grounds after the whole place has been hunted down.

Low risk, low return or high risk, high return?

Majesus and Alben's opinions are in direct conflict.

It's hard to adopt both opinions now that you can't distribute your forces.

Nicia washed the dishes, wiped her hands and walked into the dining room of the inn, wondering what decision she would make.

I see what you two have to say. What do you think, Eshley?

Nitsia waits for the right moment to broach the subject with Eshley.

"Wow, is that me?

"Yes, who else is there?

By nature, an angel is a guide.

She may formulate her own policies, but rarely does she actively tell them what to do.

As a guide, she lets the one who leads think first.

That's about as much grace as she had, she stepped in and asked Eshley the question.

.........

Standing and pondering, Eshley .

Alben and Majesus say with their eyes that it's not funny, of course, but they don't say it with their expressions or their mouths.

The dining room is quiet for a moment, perhaps because they have decided that if they can get approval, there is nothing better than that.

Dear Nissiya, may I ask you a few questions?

"Okay. Say it.

After thinking for a while, she decided that she didn't have much to judge, and decided that it would be better to draw that information from Nysia, who was the only one here who had information that Eshley and the others did not have.

So, how far can you help me with this?

It's not a good idea for a combat action. She has to deceive the eye, so you can only help her with this type of supplementary work on a low basis.

The act of questioning the angels is an act of courage.

However, Eshley has no hesitation in deciding that it is necessary.

First of all, she asks for assistance from those who would be of immediate help, but Nissier nails her for not helping out openly.

Okay. Now, secondly, is there anything in Miss Nissiya's art that would allow us to act alone?

"There is. If I store my magic in the medium, it will be possible to move away from me. In some cases, I can see some combat in the future, but please consider it far from perfect.

"Does that mean fighting is the last resort?

You will. This is hostile territory, and once the edge is opened, you better believe you won't get a second chance.

Next, Eshley will check to see if he can keep his hands intact.

It would be too conspicuous for all four of them to act together at all times.

She decided that it would be best to work in pairs, if possible, or even alone if that's a luxury, so she checked to see if there was a practical way to do that.

However, that method is also conditional, so when it comes to full-on combat, you have no choice but to act within the range of Nitsia's magick dispersion.

But even after hearing that, Eshley's face did not change.

''Then is it safe to assume that the Demon King's men are under the same conditions as us?

"!

I think this question is the most important one Eshley was going to ask.

As proof, Alben and Majesus' eyes widened as they realized what was going on.

That's right. This country does not belong to the demon king, it is just another country.

Nicia smiled complimentingly as she noticed.

"An environment without magic is as good as dead ground for the other side. There is a strength difference, but the chances of falling into battle are slim as far as this world is concerned.

Yes, we've heard reports of the shadow of the demon king, but there's no mention of this place being ruled by the demon king.

That is to say, the demon kings are not able to act properly in this land.

The strength of Eshley and her friends is not the fighting ability of a powerful cutthroat angel named Nisia.

She is the starting point and the ability to act without time limit that the demon king's army does not have.

With Majesus, she can create a base point and use transference magic.

Then what should we do?

The first thing we need to do is to get a better grasp of the geography and expand our range of operations, and then we need to find people to help us and get some money for the time being.

Considering the war situation in their home country, they may not have much time left, but it's not like they have a time limit of a month or two.

I think that we should keep the intelligence gathering in the enemy's territory with the brave men to a minimum and strictly adhere to the covert action for now.

After thinking that far, Eshley was able to secure a base of action, but he decided that the ground was not solid, so he set his mind on securing a foothold first.

This is a good thing, and it can be a good thing, too, as Alben and Majesus were focused only on securing the heroes and neglected the process.

""........."

Oh, being stared at again, Eshley feels the gaze of the two men.

Thinking that she had overstepped her bounds, Eshley decided to ignore the stares, deciding that she couldn't fail Nisia.

You think that's not funny, but you leave the two men out of it.

Acting in earnest would require, at the very least, a ground clearance equal to or greater than that of the other party.

Whether you fight or run, you need to know the land.

All right. What you're describing is realistically possible. It'll work that way for now. Are you two ready?

"Ha, I have no objection to myself.

No problem.

Even the men, who understood the importance of this, would not interfere with the policy set by Eshley.

Put aside the men who reluctantly agree with you.

Now, let's leave the groundwork and fund-raising to the two of you, Eshley, but there are some things I need you to do.

"To me?

Nicia gently smiles as she pulls out a piece of paper and hands it to Eshley, "What is this?

What's this?

A flyer, but not to her knowledge that she could grasp, but a precious piece of paper with various letters and some pictures on which different scenes were transferred from the picture Nysia had just shown.

It seems to be an organization that believes in the gods of this world, but that's just fine. They may serve different gods, but they are still believers. I suppose we could use a little help from these men.

If Jiro saw this flyer, he would think it was a blatantly fraudulent religious organization and discard it after a glance.

But for Nissiya, he regrets the wording, which calls itself faith but lacks a shred of faith, and decides to make it a believer in order to gain ground first.

Word of the Day

After taking the first step, it is surprisingly easy to walk.
