"Good morning~

"Oh, good morning,

"You're early, aren't you?

Yeah, I'm under orders to submit the report to the supervisor personally. They told me to wait until after work to rest. ......

"Wow, that's a tough one for a supervisor.

The next morning after my safe return to Japan, the first thing I did was not cozy up to the computer or spend time with Suela, but to write up a report.

It was the opposite of what I had imagined before the trip, it was like a nightmare, and I would like to forget about it, but it seems that wholesalers don't seem to be able to do that.

The sad part of being an office worker is that you have to report the contents after the event.

If you are ordered to finish the report before forgetting, my body, which is imbued with company spirit, will naturally face the computer.

As a result, I came home and worked, a model for a corporate warrior.

Thanks to ......, Suela's mood became askew.

I don't need to tell you that the expression on her face as she gave up with a bitter smile was like a sharp knife to my heart.

While making a report, Supervisor Evier, when I told him to make a report, was watching how to get in a good mood, looking really happy.

Fed up with the supervisor's meanness, she was exhausted, frantically mulling over her head, promising to finish the job the next day with a sulky Suela.

She also manages to recover her mood by allocating her day off during her business trip for a date.

By a spur of the moment, I ended up going on a date with Memoria as well, but I decided that this was a worthwhile opportunity for a man who is officially being two-timed.

Maybe this is the time when I was most grateful for the power of the magic mark.

I can wake up early and run my fingers over the keyboard of the computer for the first time in a long time in the party room in order to make a statement.

It's a wonderful thing to have a body that can be revitalized after a night's rest, just like when I was in my early twenties.

By the way, although I usually greet Kaido in the morning, I told the party members including this guy that I came back yesterday.

The reaction was as expected, and let's just say that I was reassured that you are back.

"'Welcome back, what's for you?

"Humph!

"'Uh-oh!

As for Kaido and Minami, who are asking for souvenirs without realizing it, it's not my fault for doing my best to throw a sobat at them.

I responded nicely to Katsura and Kitamiya when they said thank you for their hard work.

"Hmmm?

"What Kaido?

"By the way, I didn't ask you for details yesterday, did I?

"You mean Isreal?

That's right.

I'm used to making dozens, if not dozens, of reports, so I don't have much trouble making them.

The outer frame is already done.

What will take time is the process from here to the point where it is scrutinized and made into something that can be shown to the public.

You smile at Kaido as he tries to take a peek at you at this stage.

Unfortunately, there wasn't much to talk about that you would enjoy. I didn't have much exposure to the fantastical stuff.

Is that so?

Oh, if I had to choose, I'd say red coffee.

"What's that?

The drink I had at what looked like a coffee shop over there. It wasn't as black as this one.

You pull up a cup of instant coffee on the table, which you remember was a strange drink.

It was a strange drink, but I remembered it was a strange drink, and I pulled the cup of instant coffee on the table.

It's a weekday, so I can't drink your coffee, but I'm used to drinking it too, so I'm not complaining.

The coffee has to be black.

"It wasn't there! You know, like the beast ears.

"You're in-house,

"Like elves!

"I know that's Suela. I mean, I know the word 'Dirk' is in my head.

"Like magic!

You can use it, too.

"Was!

He wants a souvenir story as if he doesn't know how I feel, but I can't tell you much.

If you think about it calmly, fantasy has become very close to me.

If you go to the underground shopping mall, you can find a lot of fantasy-related items that you might think of.

Speaking of unusual things in the other world, it may not have existed if you think about it.

This company may have deliberately set up a facility closer to that kind of environment.

The dungeon itself, the company's goal, is a fantasy promise.

In such an environment, Kaido's story doesn't get much traction.

"What was he doing there, sir?

"It's a job. Quite a bit of a digression.

What is this guy saying to me as I'm compiling a report on the job?

Kaido gives me a look that says I'm disappointed.

I ignore that look and continue writing my report.

...... students, I hope it's nothing.

"The medical staff of this company is taking care of you, right? It's going to be okay.

After a few seconds of silence, Kaido sat down next to me and pouted.

The students who came back here are undergoing a medical examination called a cure.

There are endemic and infectious diseases in Isual, but the biggest obstacle is the skills forcibly granted or the holy crest, which is similar to the demon crest.

I'm checking to see how far it is affecting the body and returning it to its daily routine to see if there is a problem.

"Suera told me that whether it's a magic or holy crest, without magic it's just an invisible tattoo. You're overreacting, but I'm just doing this just in case.

The fact that a student close to you was kidnapped in this way must have been a fact that made you think more than a little bit in Kaido.

The question was unusually serious.

All I know is that Suera told me it wasn't a problem.

So I'll just have to answer that, but it will be more reassuring than saying I don't know.

You do! Well, I was wondering how to get to know a high school student, but I shouldn't get tired!

"Just so you know, don't mess with the minors.

I know! I'm kidding! Acknowledged.

I don't know.

It may have been worth it, but Kaido took off his serious expression as if it wasn't a character, and quickly returned to his original mischievous attitude.

It's bad enough to interfere with such a Kaido.

Another story Suera told me, about the secret agent who was brought back from Isual.

The spies' existence was unknown to the testers.

I was only told about it because I was the only one in the position to hear about it.

Their fate was not, as expected, a bright path.

Fresh information seems to be valuable even in the demon king's army, and the spies who were stripped of their face will be spitting out information right now.

I didn't want to know more about it, and Suera herself didn't tell me.

''Sir? Where do you want to go?

I'm out of cigarettes. I'll get some from the store.

Welcome!

"You're not going into the dungeon today?

"Well, I'm done with my quota for the week! So I'm off today!

Well, that's good to know. If you help me with my work, you can say, "Oh, I have to remember something, so I'll take my leave! ...... That's an easy guy to understand.

Feeling dark, I decided to smoke a cigarette for a change, but then I remembered that I smoked my last cigarette this morning. I got up to go buy some, because it was the end of the line, and I was going to let you help me with my work if you're not busy, but I guess I missed it.

I saw Kaido off as he ran off with a bang.

You laugh at your quick retreat using your magic crest, and then go back to your original goal of buying cigarettes.

Would you like to talk to me first?

"Huh! President?

But it was not to be.

Suddenly, your view changes in an instant, and you are now in a luxurious room where you were in the party room a moment ago.

Judging from the view out the window and the president sitting at a table in the middle of the room, you can determine that this is the president's office.

It's also because Supervisor Evvia is standing next to you with a headache-inducing gesture.

Quickly straighten your posture and take a careful stance.

"Yeah, I called you. Make yourself comfortable. A couple of questions, and you'll be back where you were.

How nice it would be to be able to say that and put your mind at ease.

While it's all you can do to relax your shoulders slightly, the president begins to speak with a smiling smile on his blond, fresh face.

"First of all, let me say thank you for this business trip, it was also great that you were able to keep your cool in spite of the unforeseen circumstances.

I'm sorry.

There's nothing wrong with being praised by the head of an organization in any way.

I'm an unpredictable presence, but I take it as it comes.

Now, I would love to talk with you until sundown, but unfortunately we don't have time. Let's get to the point.

Say only in your mind that you came.

I can assure you that it is almost never the case that you end up with a compliment from the top.

Now what will they ask you?

"Rest assured, I didn't call you here to chase you down or reprimand you. To begin with, you're not in a position where I have to deal with you directly.

I wonder if he could sense your nervousness, and he piles on the words to reassure you.

That doesn't take away the tension, but it does give you some leeway.

Some say that we don't have time to kill the underlings, but that's not the case right now.

I think you know the unspoken rule that we Demon King's Army can do anything we want as long as we get results. In fact, you made a result. I thought it was an interesting idea when you wanted to do it on your own, and I guess my instincts were right when I gave you the green light over my objections. It's just that it wasn't entirely without problems.

A cold sweat breaks out at the mention of the problem.

First of all, credit to you. You are to be commended for taking a brave man from the enemy with the minimum amount of time and manpower required. That is well-deserved. The other thing you did, which may have been a bonus for you, was catching a spy. It's not easy to get inside, even if you're gathering information.

"Thank you.

You can't just cut me off here and smile at me, it will only make my heart beat faster.

I'd like you to talk to me sooner if you can.

"Don't be so nervous, it's just a matter of achievement too. Amelia Miyagawa. It's about her.

"Is this about Amelia?

"It's precisely the presence in her,

"...... the soul of the first demon king?

Yes, that's right. You have done well to bring back our ancestors. As a demon king, I thank you.

You have achieved so much. You have my deepest gratitude.

"You can expect a bonus, and I promise you a reasonable price as a demon king.

It's just a word of thanks, but it gives me a sense of accomplishment.

I've had many experiences that made me wonder what my hard work was all about, but when was the last time I received direct praise like this?

I was slightly moved by the thought that I was rewarded.

You can expect a bonus as well, which makes you feel refreshed and refreshed from the depressed mood until now.

"Well, I can't go on just praising you, so I'll move on, but you've done a great job, and to be frank, we're having trouble with her.

What?

The sunny weather was soon replaced by clouds.

The first thing I thought of when I heard those words was a plan to make me look into it from scratch with no plan for you to do something about it. I think it would be better for my mind to forget all the bad old days.

...... It would be better psychologically for me to forget all the bad things from the past.

But now it's the president's word.

When you tell me that, it means it has some bearing on me.

"I'm a demon king, too. I knew right away that she had the soul of one of the previous demon kings in her. Now, here's the problem with her. I've examined it and it's completely embedded in her body and I can't get it out. In addition, it's starting to take its toll on her physically.

! Are you okay!

"Don't panic. That's a great candidate for the brave. It's not a case of dying or permanent damage. Rather, it's the opposite. It's beginning to be enhanced beyond human limits. If I return him home, he'll be able to use his magic even here where there is no magic.

"It's

Yeah, that's pretty bad. It has been proposed by the majority of the executives to forcibly rip the soul out of her body.

The element of magic, the magic element, can be used in Japan where there is no magic.

There's no need to talk about the danger of the soul of the demon king's influence.

If you think that there is a non-zero chance that the magic power will run out of control in the everyday space and cause damage, the company can't take the option of leaving it alone.

Even if Amelia is a good person, it would be meaningless if she is under the influence of evil and commits crimes.

Being able to use magic in everyday life is that much more dangerous.

In addition, this company strictly guards the secrecy of magic to the outside world.

It was understandable that the company would rather let one person go missing than risk a leak.

But

"You look unconvinced.

...... Yes, I disagree with that choice.

It's not a good idea to confront him.

But I also understood that for Amelia's sake, I shouldn't deny it here.

Even though it would have spoiled the feeling of accomplishment, I said the words honestly, even as my body tensed up in the face of the overwhelming presence.

"Yes, I'll leave her in charge of you, then.

The president made his decision easily, as if he didn't care about my resolve.

"You look like you don't understand.

I know, I'd look the same if I were in his shoes.

I think so, Evia, when I explain the situation. After all, you've done so much for us, and it would be unwise to ignore your opinion and make decisions on your own, considering the consequences. But we can't just leave it at that. Then I'll make a compromise and appoint you president.

The conversation was taken in a direction that I could understand, so much so that I suspected that it had been decided in advance without regard to my intentions, since the conversation progressed so smoothly.

Jiro Tanaka, will you go scout a brave man for a dungeon tester?

You sound like you're asking for help, but you said you were going to order it.

I don't mind if you recruit other brave men as well. Hahahaha! It's a good subordinate to have!

They often say there's an upside to a good story, but the bottom line is that this story is going to get you to work for more money!

Superintendent Evvia smiled at me and the president laughed at me, and I did my best to keep my expression up, and screamed in my mind that I had been entrusted with the cleanup operation.

I'll definitely get paid when this is all over!
