Corporate Slave Hero Says He’s Quitting His Job

"... from that story, why are we planting crops in the fields?"

"Work the acne. This guy needs to be planted by now, or he'll be late for harvest."

Phantom complains, dropping crop seeds in the field.

Next to it, Irela was silently planting crops, and further back, Isbell was also doing field work.

"If we're going to go to Demon King's Castle, we can do it for quite a while, right? We're in such a hurry to get ready so that we can grow up in the meantime."

"I'd like to know why we're helping with that, but hey!

"If you want me to work with you, this is the absolute condition!

I scream high as I build fences around animals.

Eventually, we agreed to go to Demon King's Castle.

After that, the children, who were being collected by Phantom's hands, have returned safely to the village, as have the memories that had been taken away by their hobby.

The immediate acknowledgement was also for the successful conduct of the negotiations, as it was necessary for Phantom himself to release his memory in order to undo the children who had been removed from his memory.

As a fighter, I hear I take the form of a demon king.

But there's quite a distance from here at Demon King Castle.

If you go and go home, you'll be vacating the house for more than two weeks.

It is now the turn of the season and I decided it was too late to plant it when I came back because I had a crop on hand that would not grow satisfactorily if I missed planting it here.

Think of your departure as the day after tomorrow, and plan to finish all field work by then.

"But... what is that demon king and brave man doing in the field..."

"Do you have a complaint?

"No, there's nothing, Master Isbell. It's just that the world's over."

"It's not the end! It's about to start!

That's how Isbell sits back and even plants seeds.

- Sure, it's the end of the world from scratch.

"Inside, this task can also be training for mental concentration. Is this how Lord Brave grew stronger?

"No, that's not it. Never. I fought normally and gained strength."

"Really... I thought I found out the secret to your strength..."

Irela is depressed for some reason, yet plants seeds alongside Isbell.

She herself seemed to grasp the situation and drank this request immediately.

If the four of us proceed with our work, everything will probably be complete by tomorrow.

Nevertheless, is this field made of the hands of the brave, the demon king, and their chief executives?

I guess every country will be tempted to ask.

"Mm, Phantom. The feeling is a little close there. This will hit the leaves in the process of growing up, so let me go a little bit."

"... brave man, wouldn't this be harder than fighting?

"Do you understand me? I'll start, too. Okay."

After this conversation, Phantom remained silent at all times.

"So silver. Lend me your boat."

"What is it, fool?"

On the day I left, I went to the city and was visiting the Silver House.

To get to Demon King Castle, you need a ship.

But now that people and demons are in the middle of a battle, there are no ships to go to a continent with demons.

So I visited a silver that looked like a ship.

"I don't know what the situation is and I'm going to the Demonic Continent, but if you really want to go, you can use the Demonic Stone of Transfer. With this previous quest reward, should you have as much money as you can buy?

"I've already gone to the store. But it was sold out."

"... what?

"Everywhere seems to have had a buyout within the last few days, and there wasn't one left"

"Hmm... that's odd"

Yes, using the Devil's Stone of Transfer as the shortest means to get to Demon King's Castle was the first thing I thought about.

If you are traveling a long distance, you have no hands that can and will not travel as quickly as possible.

"The Devil's Stone of Transfer is traded for dozens of gold coins if you suck... you think you're buying it up?

"I was curious to find out, but it looks like the same person bought it. I couldn't get any more information from the boulders as a store."

"Right... sounds like you need to do a little research - hmm?

Having such a conversation knocks on the door of the room.

When Silver gave permission to enter, the door opened lavishly and a woman came in.

"Hey, silver! Your quest is ready - isn't it Al! When did you get here?

"Leona! Haven't seen you in weeks? I just got here today."

It was Leona, clanmaster of the A-rank clan, who came in.

"Can't you come in quietly... even though it's the king's room"

"Well, that's good! Speaking of which, Al, what happened to that kid?

Leona says as she looks around.

Then Silver also starts to care about the area as soon as possible, moving his gaze.

Isbell has already crossed the Devil's Continent with Phantom and Irela.

They have a ship they've been on, and that's on their way.

It just doesn't mean there are only three people aboard, and that there are some of the other most squad members who were looking for Isbell on this continent, so I, the human being, couldn't ride it.

So we're looking for a different ship.

"Bell wouldn't be here today. Just something else."

"Did you! Above all!"

"Don't get in a good mood."

Wouldn't Silver be too bad for Isbell?

I wonder how obsessed you are to see the blatant relief.

"Then it's just fine. It's time for our ship to leave, so we can ride together."

"Uh, okay?

"Yeah, but I'm gonna need you to help me with my quest, too."

With that said, Silver takes out a piece of parchment that says Quest Overview.

"This time we, the Knights of the Silver Wings and the Greed Tigers, were to come together on one quest. The request is a huge shadow investigation witnessed in the ocean."

"Huge shadow...... is it dangerous? I can't believe A-rank clans work together."

"It seems the harbor magicians have confirmed the magic power of the out-of-digit. Probably a monster with a vast area of the ocean."

A demon of the sea?

It's not like you don't have any combat experience, but it's basically the stones that do it over at sea.

Because the enemy uses the entire ocean as a sphere of action, whereas we are overwhelmingly disadvantaged that we can only move on a ship.

If we devise water magic, we will also be able to fight in the water, but it is inefficient because we must continue to use magic in combination.

"Well, when you're in battle, you're gonna need an attacker and a defenseman to protect your ship."

"Mm-hmm. We defend the ship with shields as knights, and the Greed Tiger launches an attack. That's how the joint quest was organized."

"I see... so I should help you with this quest too, huh?

"That's the thing. After completing your quest, we'll send you to the Devil's Lands. It's just impossible to land."

This is a delightful story.

It costs money to get on the boat, and would be greatly appreciated if you could just co-operate with the quest to get it delivered.

"Helpful. If that's the case, I'll work with you."

"Heh! Will Al join us! This is an easy sign of victory."

"You have to go, Leona..."

That's how we're talking, Silver rises with the cough.

Put the sword on your back, which you had withheld on your side, and apparently start getting ready to leave.

"That's about it for nothing. The departure is in an hour. If you're late, you'll be relentless."

"Okay. Be careful."

Whatever it was, now I can secure my legs.

All you have to do is complete the quest and land.
