Continuity is the Father of Magical Power

A Month Ago

"Damn... I'm glad I quit with momentum, but I'm way unemployed now..."

I haven't done it since I quit the Fermer Chamber of Commerce, and it was soaked every day.

And when I find out, I'm unemployed for another month...

Then I can't say anything bad about the Chairman's liquor habits...

"Hmm? What. Old man, are you unemployed?

A young man from an adventurer sat next to me talking to me.

"That's right... Corner, I've been working hard as vice chairman for years... and I quit."

"That's again...... why did you stop? You mean the vice chairman is next to the chairman, right? I thought you were getting a lot of money.

"That's right. Well, nobody wanted to do it."

"Nobody wants to do it? Is that why you quit?

"Well, I guess. My job is to run a chamber of commerce instead of a non-working chairman, but I have to be in the mood of the chairman."

"That's tough..."

"That's right...... it's especially hard for the chairman to be in a good mood. I'm always drunk with alcohol, and I can't help but poke at the challenge, and I get yelled at right away when my accomplishments are a little lower than what I want. I quit because I couldn't stand it anymore..."

"Really... Could it be that you worked at the Fermer Chamber of Commerce, old man?

"How did you know?

You didn't say a word about Fermer, did you?

"It's not even that surprising, is it? Now, Empire. Then everyone knows that the Fermer Chamber of Commerce has crumbled. If they told you that story at this time, it would be natural for you to imagine working for Fermer, wouldn't it?

"Huh, Fermer crumbled? When!?

"Old man, are you serious? It's the store you worked for, right? Looks like a week ago, all the employees quit and the store collapsed."

"Oh yeah..."

While I was soaking...

"Well, maybe if I were chairman like the old man said, I wouldn't have had a choice."

"Oh, yeah. Oh, did Fermer crush you... Chairman, you've changed. The old chairman was a serious, working man... where did the chairman I respected go..."

"Was the old chairman that awesome?

"Yeah, really. I served customers myself and twice as many of my men always worked. The chairman was respected by everyone back then and it was really cool. I was working hard for a chairman like that too..."

"Now that someone like that has gone the opposite way... you don't know what a person is..."

"True... I want to see the chairman again back then"

I want to work under a chairman I can count on when I was young.

"Well, isn't he reflecting by now? Well, it's too late."

"Right..."

Fermer's already crushed.

My dreams don't come true anymore.

"Look, don't be depressed. I'm sure you'll find a job. Now drink it and forget it."

"Oh yeah... I was unemployed..."

"Oh, it reminded me of something extra. I'm sorry. Somewhere, can't you guess?

"That's... there's no..."

"Well... there aren't many magicians in Imperial City... Ah! Old man, go over there!

"Over there?"

"A little magic shop on the edge of the commercial district! They've been popular since the beginning and they're always short on manpower, so if it's your old man's background, why don't you hire me?

"Oh, there... right... why don't you go"

That's the shop run by Mr. Holland, the chairman's brother.

Sure, you could hire me over there!

If this happens, you can't stay or stand!

"Oh, man. You're not going now?

"That's right. Bye."

"Hey! Maybe the store's already closed! What... he's gone... and he knows he's drunk?

SIDE: Colt

"Good luck. You had a rough day."

"Right. Elsie is tired too. I'll take care of the door outside."

"Thank you"

"Good sweat today ~"

I went out completely dark as I stretched out my body.

"All right, let's tighten the door and get ready for tomorrow."

That said, he tried to lift a standing sign near the entrance into the store.

"Hmm? That's heavy? Ugh!"

It was dark and I didn't know, but one drunk stuck to the sign and slept.

"Why are you sleeping here? Excuse me. Are you okay...?

I was unexpectedly surprised the moment I saw the man's face.

Sleeping in front of me because he was the first man to run away from me...

"Hey! Moran!

I don't know why you're here.

In the meantime, I try to shake it up as much as I want while I call my name.

But it's not going to happen...

"I... smell like alcohol - how much have you been drinking? I haven't spoken to you in a week, have I?

I want Moran's face lightly, fooling around with that.

"Ugh, yeah... hire me... I'll do anything... I want a job... please... ma..."

I've hardened.

It was like a bedtime speech... but somehow I figured out what was going on with my ex-boyfriend.

"Right... right..."

Probably, but there are a lot of other people who haven't quit my store and found a new job......

And yet...... am I supposed to have such a good day at my brother's shop?

It's just... I don't care if you help the ex-employees... how?

Do you want to redo the Fermer Chamber of Commerce?

No, there won't be any more people who trust me...

So what do we do?

"What's wrong? Mr. Colt."

"Hey, nothing... the drunk's asleep"

"Was it... and it's not going to happen either. What will you do?

"Yeah... for once, I'll ask my brother to stay because I know him..."

"Really... then, I'll ask Mr. Holland"

"Oh, thanks......"

Elsie is really sweet......

"Oh, yeah, I came up with a good thing"

"What did you come up with?

"Whoa!

"Is that the man who slept in front of us?

"Yes, I am."

"Who do you know?

"Ex-employee."

"Well... so, what did you come up with?

"Oh, that's..."

Should I talk to you, or should I rely on you later anyway?

"Actually..."

Then I explained to my brother the plan I came up with.

"Well... that's a pretty tough plan..."

"If you want to do it alone. Tomorrow, I'll ask Moran to apologize for everything he's done."

"I hope it works out. I'll do whatever I can to help."

"Thank you. I'm sure I'll try to be successful."

"Whoa, come on."

The Next Day

SIDE: Moran

"Hmm... hmm? Where am I?

When I woke up, I was in an unrecognizable place.

Yesterday... have a drink...

"Oh, are you awake? Good morning."

"Good morning..."

Looking in the direction of the voice...... a girl was cleaning about whether she was an adult or not.

"Where am I?

"Is this it? This is Mr. Holland's house."

"Mr. Holland...... Mr. Holland!?

"Yes, but?

Oh yeah... I left for Mr. Holland's yesterday drunk...

"also, sorry"

What are you doing, me?

What are you going to do with annoying the person you're trying to hire...

"It's okay. Is your body better than that?

"Dude... duh... duh. Yes."

I look around at my body and answer.

"That was good. You'll tell Mr. Colt and the others. Then let's have lunch."

"Oh, thank you......"

"No. I'll come and get you, so just take your time until then"

"Wow, I get it"

I dropped the girl off while sitting on the cot.

"Co, Mr. Colt......? I told you I was going to tell Mr. Colt..."

Could it be that you're here?

No way...

Oh, more than that, that girl (ko)... that was sweet and cute... because she wore a collar... is she a slave here?

A slave...

Must have come with a hard life......

There is no comparison between the hard things I escaped.

Me, I should have tried a little harder...

I wonder why I threw it out.

"Moran, are you awake? We're going in."

"Or, Chairman!?

"Hey, long time no see. How have you been?

"Yeah..."

I was really here......

Have you lost a little weight?

"Well, that's good"

"Or does the chairman work here?

"That's right. We're here to change our minds."

"Oh, really..."

If you ask me...... not like the usual chairman.

First of all, isn't it weird for the chairman to worry about my body?

Is this a dream?

"Did Moran find a new job?

"Yes, no..."

"Well... then, can I do you one favor?

"Do me a favor?

"That's right. I need your help. In the meantime, I'll pay you well."

"Duh, what kind of favor?

Don't ask me what it is. You're afraid to accept it......

"Right... before you do, let me apologize. I'm so sorry."

"Huh? What is it all of a sudden?

Are you sure this is a dream?

"You finally understand that I was stupid... I can't help but apologize to the people who bothered me"

"Oh well... I don't know... looks like the chairman is back to his old chairman"

This is a dream.

I'm sure my desire to meet my old chairman came to a dream.

"The old me?

"Yes, it looks like you're looking at the chairman when the Chamber of Commerce was still small. Hard work, always low back"

"Was that what I used to be?

"Yes."

"Well... I hope you can get any closer to me back then"

Shit...... tears......

"If you have that thought, you'll be fine....... ok. I will take every request from the Chairman."

"Wait a minute. You haven't even explained yet, have you?

"It's okay. How many years do you think I've been beside you?

Besides, it's a dream anyway.

"Oh well... we've been dating a long time indeed"

"Yes. So, what do I do?

"Oh, well, then let me explain my plan."

"Yes, thank you"

"Moran, what did you think of my daughter who was here earlier?

"Earlier...... I was under the impression that she was a sweet girl"

"Well, that girl's name is Elsie. She's the daughter of the liquor store I used to play with."

"Were you..."

The liquor store the chairman had turned into….

Sure... it's the store the chairman crushed.

"So, I'm going to have that kid take over the Chamber of Commerce."

"Really..."

"Is that all? Aren't you surprised or disgusted?

"Well, it's something I can't help but hate. Besides, I think she's gonna be okay."

"Is that true!? Can I ask you why?

"When I spoke to that girl earlier, I felt like I had to work hard, too, didn't I? I feel like I can do my best under her."

Plus, she's cute.

"Well... so, I'd like to ask Moran..."

"Yes, what is it?

Probably... this is not a dream.

I'm getting worried about what every favor I get...

It's never been an act before, is it?

"Will you persuade each and every one of my quitting men to come back? At that time, please explain Elsie."

"... What's the deadline?

"I have about twenty days left if I can... but don't worry about the deadline"

Oh, my God, it's easier than I thought.

Plus, I somehow found out the chairman wasn't acting until just now.

"Okay. I'll try to convince them all within twenty days."

"Oh... you don't have to, do you?

"It's okay."

Because I've done a lot harder before.

Then, I repeated my persuasion to find out where the former employee was.

In the beginning, a good day and one's accomplishments were the limit.

I had a hard time poking around.

Instead, it wasn't even that hard to persuade.

Looks like they all quit like I did, but they were having trouble with their jobs.

Besides, everyone was instant when I told them the chairman was going to change.

As for Elsie, she replied that she had no problem when she said that she was from Holland's shop, which she was talking about.

And in the second half, I was able to accomplish the chairman's request before the deadline because a former employee who had finished persuading me helped me.

I went to report to the chairman.

"Ho, is that true? Did you sleep properly? I told you you didn't have to.

And I was surprised and worried.

I don't know... you're losing weight again, and the chairman has really changed...

Of course, in a good way.
