”So the store in Memoria is going to be closed for a while, so keep in mind that you'll have to go to another store for supplies for a while.
”What's the hurry, that it is, leader, are you listening to anything?
”I don't know much about it. I heard it's a private matter.
”What's the matter with you, my dear. Procuring blood, that it is?
Speaking of which, yes. But we can't just wander around and attack them at night, can we?
”Huh? But we did sell blood at the pharmacy, right?
Yes, I was surprised to see them in the drink section of a convenience store.
It is said that the career celebration banquet is extended for the time being, and that in the meritocratic demon king's army, positions are often changed quickly.
There are people who think it's silly to have a career celebration because of such a tradition.
So I talked with Suela and we decided to do it again when things settle down, including the whole Memoria thing.
So for now, it's business as usual. This is how we have our normal morning meeting.
The first thing to communicate is about Memoria.
There's never been a holiday before.
I should have kept a couple of stores and prepared for emergencies, but I made a careless mistake, or inadvertent one.
Fortunately, the goods themselves can be bought anywhere, so it does not interfere with your work.
I can try not to be averse to it.
I mean.
”What's natural for you to be here, Kitamiya?
””A”
”Tut.
””Tongue-twister!
It's very natural to blend in, but Kitamiya was only a temporary worker at a temporary party, officially it was still that handsome guy's party.
I'm sure I'm in charge of the documents for this party.
According to the rules of this company, you need to apply for a fixed party, if you have one or two temporary parties.
There is no upper limit, but the number of testers is much smaller than in the beginning.
To be fair, we can't cut corners in the process of moving people from one party to another.
That's why we can't just let Kitamiya stay on at a loose end.
...... is the only way. My department won't accept my transfer papers.
”In charge, Mr. Nostalfel?
Yes, he says that the current imbalance in the party cannot be overlooked and he never listens to us. If I told them that I was fighting with them, they would get angry at me for not bringing my personal life into their work, and they would start saying things like, ”I'm worthy of having you two around.
”Oh, they have a different view of love, that they do.
”I didn't think I'd have this kind of harm.
”I'm starting to adjust to it, but it's hard to tell from me.
”I think the leader is a bit special,
It's not surprising that there are some cultural differences just by crossing the county line, but if you cross the world, there will be even more differences in values.
In this case, it was obvious.
In my mind's eye, I see a dragon man with silver vertical rolled hair who can be described as a high-handed young lady.
You'll have physical specs far removed from a human being called a dragon and a track record to back it up.
The confidence that does not doubt itself, Kyra Nostalfel has the hardest character to admit her faults.
This time, it is not strange if the other side (Isual) that Toru should surround Kitamiya and another woman, he does not doubt that the shortest route to prevent the party from collapsing is absolutely correct.
The stereotype of common sense is difficult to break as it is backed up by a proven track record.
From Kitamiya's point of view, one-on-one romance is common sense and a harem is insane.
But Nostalfel has nothing to do with it, she only sees Kitamiya as selfishly trying to monopolize a man.
In addition, fire-clearing is a favorite of Ms. Nostalfel.
He doesn't understand why Kitamiya wants to stay away from fire-clearing, which is considered to be superior.
Within the harem, women have a certain amount of respect for each other.
That's how they create order, so the act of giving up and leaving like Kitamiya did is something that Nostalfel doesn't understand.
Well, I don't think that's the only reason.
What else is there to do?
I guess that's partly due to the fact that we're Suela's tester party.
” ”Ahhhh,
Admiration? No, it's more like a voice I had forgotten about, but remembered.
The voices of Kaido, Minami, and Masaru fill the room.
As I said before, Ms. Nostalfel has a lot of pride.
She clearly sees Suela as a rival.
Would you allow Kitamiya's transfer under such conditions?
So, can you leave with a smile and wish them good luck in the next department?
You can't do that.
”You can't do that, can you?
I can't.
Right?
The answer is clearer than telling black and white.
The way my men see their bosses is not so different.
When my thoughts and the image of the people around me were in agreement, I quickly lit a cigarette while getting up from my seat just in time to get the agreement.
As a smoker's etiquette is to smoke away from the room, I could clearly see Kitamiya's dissatisfied face, although I also knew it was obvious.
That's right, you'll be dissatisfied if your hope is destroyed for your own convenience.
”Can't you do anything about it?
I'm a lowly person, but that's the least I can do to give you an opinion.
Kitamiya's behavior is limited by two factors, common sense efficiency and the chains of pride.
Not to confront that fact, but drop the ashes of a cigarette with a tang into an ashtray held when you get up.
I don't think there's anything anyone can do about it, but honestly, I'm not without means.
I wish I could say that, but I'm not without means.
”There is!
Yeah, I couldn't do that under normal circumstances, but it's a good thing the timing is right, because the second cohort has been hired. If you can fit it in, it should be easier to get your party change request approved.
This information was announced ahead of time with the position.
No, to be precise, I was the only one with a recruiter, but I found out when I was informed of the end of the recruiting process and the reason for it arrived with me.
The truth is that the hiring of the second batch of testers, which was supposed to take place much later, was due to the decrease in the number of testers and the low progress of dungeon conquering, and this is why I received some kind words of thanks.
It's also a distant threat from the boss that he knows if he's going to be overtaken by a junior colleague.
Kitamiya, who doesn't know such a thing, is honestly pleased with Koumei.
He turns his upper body around and looks at you as if he were grabbing the back of a chair.
”There are two ways, you can create a new party with the second term students. This is in line with the company's policy of increasing the number of attacking parties, and the advantage that second-year students can attack with experienced players makes it harder to get rejected. The downside is that your skills as an educator will be put to the test.
Add the premise that it was only a possibility, hold a lit cigarette in your left hand and hold up one eye and finger with the fingers of your right hand, smoke one cigarette and then hold up a second and a second finger.
”I'll bring in new people to fire-clear's party to swap your wizard position. It's a gamble, but from what I've heard, all parties are short on staff and are looking to bolster their ranks. The rest is up to you.
To be honest, I wouldn't choose Kitamiya for the latter, let alone the former.
Even if your romantic feelings have already cooled off, it would be difficult to give up the seat you had built up for yourself to someone else, regardless of gender.
