Rather than expecting it, in this case it would be more accurate to say that you had a bad feeling about it.

The purple smoke of a cigarette would not obstruct your vision, and since you have not been drinking alcohol, you deny that the reality in front of you is a dream illusion.

I am aware that this is the reality when you think your head hurts less than before.

Yeah, I know, this is the pain I used to feel with my stomach ache when I was having trouble at work.

Really?

The words fall with the ashes of the cigarette as I remember the feeling of escaping from reality at work while doing my job with my body with 30% nostalgia and the remaining 70% as if I were biting a bitter worm.

I wonder if my request to withdraw the order will pass.

I would like to say to the scene in front of me to understand the feeling of wanting to hang on to a hope that is not there while giving up hope that it will not pass.

Terrible, there is an example in front of you that acting heroically in reality is not realistic.

A goblin, an orc, a minotaur and those two were at the center of the vortex I was in.

You see, I did it all by myself.

That's what they said earlier when they challenged me: ......

If you ask me if I didn't have an ulterior motive, I'd probably say that it was sarcastic, but I didn't think it was this bad.

Simply put, a human being who resists the predators in a frenzy?

It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on a new one.

I wonder why they're choosing to intercept those guys, they'd just run around there and destroy each one of them.

The roles are divided.

Fire Clear is in the vanguard, desperately fighting his opponent and Nanase is recovering him.

It's the orthodox way.

But...

”Fire Clear is too protective of Nanase and Nanase is too focused on her recovery.

Fire Clear's idea of defending them dampens the efficiency of reducing the number of opponents, and he is too distracted by paying too much attention to Nanase.

It's good to always be aware of your position, but that guy's style of escorting is more of a dungeon style than a case like this.

Previously, Kitamiya was probably the link between recovery and vanguard in that position.

Now that they are in close proximity to each other, Nanase's style is more inclined to play the role of a healer, while Kiyosumi is more likely to protect her.

They are pulling each other down.

We need to start from scratch.

I don't mind being on top of it, but the fact is that I'm in a higher position than those guys, so the onus is on me to do something about it.

I can't just do nothing.

If I just end up with a blah blah blah blah, then my quality will be questioned.

I was going to wait and see how things went, but I'm so depressed that if I don't do anything, I'll be overwhelmed by the numbers.

It's a result of the naive belief that if I can do it by myself, they can do it too, but there's no way around it.

I still have a lot of work to do.

Sighing, you walk away from the window and sit down in front of your computer.

If you decide to do it, you won't spend any time.

Quickly, you run the exit code and your souls transform back into magic.

In the surveillance camera in one corner of the computer, you can see fire clearing sitting on the floor on your knees, breathing on your shoulder.

You want to let out a sigh that you have more work to do again, but you hold back.

The original plan was just to move in the dungeon, but when you open the box, you find it's a double floor.

Don't feel cheated, but this is usually what happens in business.

I decided to be positive and privately thankful that I wasn't going to take on the dungeon.

Then you add a cigarette, light it and get up from your seat.

At a time like this, I'm really grateful for the magic of not having to split up the smoke like this.

Well, what should I do?

The first thing to consider is the end, the landing point to finish the job.

That is, I have to set a goal of how far I have to go to finish the job and get back to the party.

It's all about results.

The best thing is for them to grow up and be able to go through the dungeon together.

The next best thing is for them to be able to continue on the current level they're on.

At worst, I'll be able to fly their heads off and keep them out of harm's way.

I think I see where I'm going.

Then it's time for the process.

I'm slowly descending the metal scaffolding stairs, this time with a wobbling cigarette in my mouth.

This level of thinking is within your grasp now that you're thinking at a faster pace.

It makes me want to cry a little bit that the speed that made my head spin in the black age can be done with such a single effort.

The process is, well, let's just say that there are secret ways to make it dramatic.

That potion death march I did.

You can only improve your status by becoming a magical body, accelerating your time, doing both quality and quantity with this.

But that's assuming you can clear that menu.

Anything less is inefficient.

The point is, the deficit will get worse.

Then I'll have to either supervise you or ask for Kio's instructors, but I don't think it's best to ask for their help right now.

That naturally narrows down what I can do.

I have to do this myself.

So?　What do you think?

Down the stairs, drop the ashes of your cigarette into an ashtray and listen to you raise your voice, still some distance away.

You are glaring at me while I'm catching my breath.

”I don't need to ask, I don't need to see.

”How could I do this--

”Whoever is standing in front of you has gone it alone, right?

I don't like the idea of saying everything is impossible, but the top brass won't be convinced unless you can provide evidence based on that to declare it impossible.

I can list all your faults but this is something else. Nanase, why didn't you use your attack magic?　It's not useless, is it?

”It's ......

I wonder if he didn't expect me to talk him out of it, but he made a little surprised and thoughtful gesture.

At that point, it was a douchebag, in my opinion.

That's because the gesture is assumed to have been made without thinking.

”I thought I had to prioritize Toru-kun's recovery.

OK, recovery is important. But that doesn't mean we should leave other things to chance. How many roles did Fire Clear perform while you were focused on your recovery?

”Well,

”I play three roles: attacker (attacker), defender (guard), and magician.

Is this typical of not thinking, but rather thinking that's all you need to do?

Teach by holding up a finger with the intention of advancing rather than stopping the conversation.

You, on the other hand, are only a healer. Do you know what that means?

That's my role, not hers.

”Dumbass, you think that's why you're covering for me?　Don't think you can do everything by yourself, because there's only so many people who can do a job by themselves.

If Nanase had used magic to defend herself in the battle here, we would have seen a big change.

At least, her role would have been reduced by one or two.

The sweet reality that you can only play one role like an RPG doesn't exist in this place.

'And then?　If you do everything, does that mean that Nanase's role is just an unwieldy recovery kit?

”!　Apologize to Miki!　That's not even the right word!

”What's the guy who's putting you in that situation saying, a**h*le?

”What?

”An entity that does nothing but recover moves around, which naturally increases the work (cost) to maintain it. It's not worth it, though it could take on other roles. It's not worth it, right?

Still, we can't put her in danger.

”Doubt, then get him out of this job. When you're in this together, you're making a fool of yourself.

What are you talking about?　You want me to feel sorry for this guy.

Do you want me to feel sorry for him?

I'd say out loud, ”screw you.

If you're going to argue with society here, you shouldn't show emotion.

You have to be logical and efficient, and you have to make a profit.

What's the point of being a healer if you're just being protected.

I would have given her another role, not a healer.

Besides the healers, Katsura is a skilled fighter who can carry the load and defend herself, and she is also a cartographer (mapper).

The important thing here is to be able to defend yourself.

We can buy time for them to arrive at us.

This means that the area of action for the rest of the team will increase.

It doesn't change the fact that we're protecting Victory.

He's the lifeline of our party.

It would be foolish not to.

But Hikari misunderstood how to protect him.

Is Nanase a princess of a certain country?　Then I would say don't give me this job.

......

”Oh, come on, you have no idea what you're doing: ......
