The mansion at night, in the salon.

Neptune came to visit close to midnight.

I wrapped my arms around him and showed him.

I have 11 "" bruises on my arm.

Like Neptune, MAX has 12 bruises.

That's only 11, because I've been beating the crap out of you.

"Wow, no, it's true"

Neptune was rare and admired with a serious face.

Until now he had something to spare, even if he had asked for help, always floating.

That's what I'm honestly impressed with right now.

"Really?

"I don't deserve any surprise that you defeated my fake, but it's amazing that you defeated your own fake. You were strong, weren't you?

"Oh, it was strong. It was the difference in touch."

This is true.

If they'd put an accelerator bullet in there first, I'd be the one who'd have been hit.

"Haha, that's right. Because super high level fighting is always a piece of paper."

"I see."

I don't know, but I don't know.

"And I'm getting permission, but I also knocked Lil and Run down one at a time"

"Yeah, don't worry about that because it includes saying it. Have you noticed anything more than that?

"Those two are strong, too"

"Yeah, I thought it was talent because of that?

"What do you mean?

Neptune smiled nicotinely.

"Suppose there's a 100 to 90 difference between a fake and me."

Well, that's about it.

"Lil and Run, about a hundred to one."

"Why so much?"

"So talented. We both abandoned them to extend the battle directly. If you hadn't been an adventurer, you'd have developed different abilities."

"... right"

I grinned.

If I hadn't been an adventurer - no.

If you can't come to another world.

Probably still a livestock company, every day in Death March.

An efficient dietary intake and a bear under his eyes would have stretched.

... Easier story?

You want to use power pole swing and physical main but also magic a little bit.

I'm just talking about a different nurturing policy like that.

"Then you're over there."

"Yeah, if I specialize in direct combat - I think so. It's a monster."

"I see."

"Will you go tomorrow?

"Oh, I'll climb two or three more floors. I'm going with the transfer, and I'm not going to reduce it because I'm going to fly downstairs."

"Haha, I'm glad I asked you for help after all. Amazing relief. I'm sure all the people you've helped feel this way."

I don't know.

I don't know that.

Gorn - and I heard a bell from outside the mansion.

The sound of a bell indicating that the date has changed.

"Well, it's too late, and I'm going home."

"I'll get back to you as soon as something happens"

"Yeah, even when I find something I can do."

"Oh, don't hesitate to help"

"Haha, you're my boss now, so do it, yes, that's fine. There it is"

"Because that's not what my family is"

Sounds like it.

Exclusive interaction, Neptune tries to put the mansion behind him.

Concon.

Before he left, the door was knocked.

The door opened and Emily walked in - pushed through the back as she came.

"Emily!?

"Aww!"

It was Lil and Run who pushed Emily over and showed up.

Neptune combo - no, two trios.

"Are you okay, Emily?"

"Oh, my God, Ne-kun!

"What's wrong, Lil, Run?"

"Look at this."

That's what Lil said, rolled up his sleeve, and showed his arm to Neptune.

Just like me and Neptune, she also had 's bruise on her arm.

I know, but I'm actually more reminded of the seriousness of the situation when I witness it.

but it was from here that it was critical.

"Decreasing?

"Yes, it's decreasing."

"Mine's diminishing, too, see"

Run showed his arm in the same way.

"What the hell... hmm"

"What's up, Neptune?"

Mine's down, too.

"What!?

I saw Neptune's arm.

He was right, the bruises were decreasing.

"Than the number of times I've defeated you... one less?

"Yeah, same with Lil and Run"

"I'm - I'm not down."

I rushed to look at my arms, but this one wasn't diminishing.

Me and Neptune, they thought at the same time.

Eventually, he looked up at about the same time.

"The decrease is because the date has changed?

"The decrease is due to the passage of days?

Answer Match.

Both me and Neptune quickly analyzed the current situation from a vast amount of experience.

And they nod at each other and admit that their guess is sure to be right.

"Will the problem be reduced by one in the minutes to date"

"Or do we start here and start getting less and less every day,"

We'll snort again.

The answer came 24 hours later, after the bell rang the next day.

The three Neptunes lost one bruise automatically again.

The uncontrollable countdown began, and I was relieved.
