332 323. Who should do aftercare? (1/2)

The air in the room after the group of five men on their knees left the conference room was, in a word, the worst.

The room was filled with an onomatopoeic atmosphere that was so swarthy that it was almost fitting to say ”gisgis”.

I wasn't expecting a congenial atmosphere from the start, but I had a faint hope that I could get an air of detachment because it was my job.

Normally, that hope should have been rightfully fulfilled, but the event before that was a mistake.

Is that all?

「「「「.........」」」」

In the midst of all this, a debriefing session for the newcomers' dungeon training is held.

Sitting at the top of the conference room, each group will report on their progress and Evia will check to see if any of the reports have been missed.

Everyone, including me, will be silent in response to that question.

That air is partly to indicate that there will be no report, but I also feel that they are openly expressing their dissatisfaction.

I don't know if the problem is that things didn't go the way they wanted or if there is another reason.

But I can say this.

I'm the one who got caught up.

And yet, they think we're the bad guys.

With such a look, I invited Evvia into the acrimonious place where the conflict between our party and the other party can be felt in the atmosphere, and I told her about this rookie training without any problems on the surface.

'Not from our party,'

But I can't stay silent forever in confirmation of its contents.

In order to separate public and private, I change the first person to me and tell her no more, I open my mouth and tell her.

Inspired by my actions, Kanzaki, Hizumi and Torimatsu say no more.

”I see.

I'm not sure if the content of the report is within the scope of what was expected from Evvia's point of view, but it seems like she's going to proceed without pointing anything out.

You'll have to submit your reports on the details of this trip this week. From tomorrow it will be business as usual. This is dismissed.

You will be able to find out if you are going to end up in this situation or not, but you don't seem to have any intention of making things happen in front of Evvia.

We remained silent without showing any special gestures.

The debriefing ended without incident with Evvia's statement of dismissal, judging that there was nothing to be done.

Only, rather than leave immediately, she stayed for a few seconds, observed something and then left in transition.

”Leader, I'm going to nag you later, that I am.

”......... Oh, well, I guess we'll see.

I'm not going to be the only one who can do this, but I'm not going to be the only one who can do it.

It's a good thing that you're able to get the best out of your testers, because they are in a bad mood to cooperate with each other.

It's not a good idea in this case to settle the situation by blackmailing your boss, and you wouldn't have done this if you were able to convince your boss that you understand by being held down.

You need to get rid of the resentment built up inside of it to solve this kind of problem.

You have to solve or resolve the problem between you and your partner.

So, I resolve that Evvia will ask you in detail about your response.

Let's go.

”Are you sure?

They've talked about it, but it's not going to happen. They need some time to cool off.

”.........

”Disagree?

And if we talk about it here, it will be the same as before.

I tried to move away quickly, but Minami seemed a little unconvinced.

And Kitamiya is the same.

”Can we just leave it alone?

Not good.

I let out my true feelings in response to Minami's questioning words, as if I agreed with her.

But not now.

And after that I will clearly state my thoughts now.

Maybe we need to talk, but if we do it now, it's just an argument.

We'll just keep pushing our opinions on each other, and that will only create more cracks.

Call it a waste of time and coldly, you're right.

But it's also true that you're not out of line.

We have things to do later.

What do you want?

Then it's easier to do something constructive than to do such useless things.

Now, instead of getting into a verbal fist fight with fire-clearing and the others, I'd rather work on another matter.

We'll see, let's go, boys!

When you are leaving the conference room before being told to wait, you suddenly look at the fire clearing, but he is not looking at you.

There is no need to poke around in the bushes, although you feel uncomfortable about being let go as it is.

We walk down the corridor, shrugging off the fact that he came out of the room without any resistance, and we become the usual members.

Where do you want to go, senpai?

Yes, I think you could at least explain it, that I could.

Well, it's time to go.

Then Kaido and Minami pester me to explain to them as I'm just going along.

Glancing around to make sure that we don't have the same dungeon tester, I tell Kaido and the others where we're going.

”It's the place of the five men who just got down on their knees!

”Huh?　Why do you go?

The purpose of this is to give them aftercare and to warn them about their behavior. I think they would have been frustrated if they had just been turned away.

You don't stop walking, but you go on, explaining.

You have a destination in mind, so you're not lost, or perhaps it's more accurate to say that you know what you're going to do, but you know what you're going to do.

I understand the word ”caution”, but what is the aftercare?

It's just the way it is. It is also a kind of aftercare that can be used for future reflection by warning. The important thing here is not to blindly deny the other person's intentions.

”Wow, are those words sarcastic to me, that they are?

”It's a metaphor, South. Don't be so sulky.

I have been hurt badly, that I have been hurt badly. So I demand compensation for my work and alimony.

”Okay, okay, what are you looking for?

”Mmmmmm, what do you want me to do?

Are you going to take it easy on me?

The answer to Kitamiya, who asked a pure question, displeased Minami, and if I followed up with a laugh, she might have been teasing me, but her sulky mouth turned into a smile as she waited for my words, and she walked out in a rhythmic rhythm that seemed to skip with a rundown.

Oh dear, you think, I should be rewarded for my earlier work and wait anxiously to see what I will be charged for.

Once again, you will sharpen your senses that were relaxed when you started walking.

Trace the residue of your magic.

There are many different ways to feel, even among the same species.

For me, it's akin to a sense of touch.

Would it be easier to describe it as feeling the skin?

The pressure, the temperature, the humidity, the indescribable feeling of being different from all of them.

There is no other word for it but magic.

Talking about physical sensations, the color of magic is different for everyone.

So far, it has never felt the same.

The more distinctive magic surges you feel in it, the more you can track.
