D Genesis, 3 Years after Dungeon Appeared

§ 131 Saiga's Distress 1/30 (wed)

After completing a long and barren meeting, Saiga returned to her seat, thinking about the sales department people who were relentlessly devoured in the previous part as they quickly tried to build a schedule and system.

"But I didn't expect it to fall so openly....."

After all, the sales department, which appeared to have withdrawn the purchase and conceded, has now proposed a transfer of ownership finance lease.

Either way, it is the JDA that makes the contract with the university. Moreover, when it comes to the transfer of ownership, it is not strange to rent just for a period of time. In this case, it is the same as buying.

I definitely didn't want to hand over the contract with the university, but on the assumption that I would deal with it as much as possible without discarding it and in the order in which I applied, I finally settled on a finance lease.

"Now I don't know if I'll be allocated to the more needed universities. First of all, the contract between JDA and D Powers is only a lease, and you want to handle equipment information under the responsibility of JDA..."

Since we managed to publicize the dangers of equipment management, and some of them were interrupted into the contract, it is likely that even if the information leaked, it was not intended to be applied intentionally. Somewhat deterrent.

"I don't know why I bothered to get into trouble... I don't know if I really earned election marks like Naruse said."

The JDA organization has a managing director who supervises the secretariat under the chairperson.

Although the managing director is also the chairman of the board of directors, the board's entities are close to liaison meetings with relevant organizations, such as relevant ministries and companies, and hardly touch on practice.

In terms of practice, it was organized under the management of two managing directors under the managing director.

Needless to say, one is Managing Director Mizuho, who oversees the management, sales and legal departments.

The other was a director in charge of the Dungeon Management Department and said Satoshi Makabe, managing director.

Unlike Managing Director Mizuho, he is a human resource drawn from the private sector. At that time, he had a lot of connections and was familiar with the industry. Mostly, he flew around the countries concerned in association with WDA, and he is not in Japan for nearly half of the year.

When the matter has been pledged by the board of directors.

"There are two managing directors, so one in the country is enough."

"Dungeon Control is the only jurisdiction, and Orange is good, so there's no problem."

That's why it became a topic of discussion.

The board also acknowledged his achievements and approved him with a smile because his work was not delayed.

Above all, it is no exaggeration to say that most of the agreements and rules between the DAs of various countries were formulated by the Shimikawa.

In addition, Orange is the director of the Dungeon Management Department, and a batiki girl named Orange Sanchiyo.

From her name and background, she is in her 40s and is said to be a beauty witch, whose role is occasionally discussed. Nothing survived in pursuit of the last digit.

Regardless, of the organizational structure of JDA, the other departments except the Dungeon Management Department are under the jurisdiction of Managing Director Mizuho.

With the departure of the president in September this year, the board was to elect a successor, but it was an open secret that the candidate was headed by two managing directors.

"I don't want any trouble."

Looking at the clock, it's almost time to leave work. As expected, today's overtime is confirmed.

After a small sigh, Saiga began to read the report about the proposal to establish a fund passed to Miharu.

Normally, it should be okay to throw a round at the promotional section, which is in charge of granting subsidies, but after all, it is the business (...) division (...) promotion section.

If the feeling of the meeting was reflected as-is, I didn't feel like I could see a stubborn tomorrow.

Saiga glanced at the proposal and overlooked the whole thing.

"Well done, but it's closer to an investment than a fund. When we bite into this, I think we'll need support at best."

Sponsorship is the group behind the foundation so it can operate smoothly. Events are mostly conducted by the public sector or the press.

Granting money would be cooperation and sponsorship, but it would be difficult to think about in terms of budget.

After all, JDA is an organization that manages funds, and it is the sponsoring company that actually contributes the funds. Therefore, a large budget is not available for the JDA itself.

Simply put, there is a possibility that zero is as different. Even D Powers would be in trouble if they made a big face like that.

"Should I simply contact you in the form of a sponsorship request? If I throw a circle, I won't be able to suggest co-sponsorship instead."

In that case, not to mention the momentum of these people, the host was JDA, and D Powers even had the possibility to say special sponsorship at the supervisor.

If D Powers ignores the announcement and starts another fund, JDA members will collapse.

Anyway, I wrote an e-mail to the section chief of the Promotion Section and sent it to him.

"So this is it...."

Saiga opened the desk key and took out a thin bundle of paper. And when I read that report,

The staff member on the side of the section chief's booth raised his face, surprised by the sudden noise, and saw Saiga pushing his forehead against the desk.

"Hello, section chief?!

Saiga shook her hand and appealed to the staff who had risen in a hurry to say that she had suffered from cerebral bleeding and heart failure because she had done too much work.

The clerk, surprised, saw it and went back to his job.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

After Miyoshi handed over the JDA patent office to Miyoshi, she appeared on the front page and was just past her retirement time.

I was going to report to Saiga that D Powers had prepared the submission of something that would probably be a patent to identify the presence or absence of D cards, but I reconsidered tomorrow.

In fact, Miyoshi has not filed an application at this time. Because I asked you to apply on the "Good Feeling Schedule" and asked you only to prepare.

"It's a hassle to cook dinner, so let's take something out and go home...", the phone vibrated.

"Chief?"

Mitsuki swiped across the screen and took a call from Saiga.

Yes, it's Naruse.

"It's Saiga. Where are you now?

"It's Nishi-Shinjuku. I just left the patent attorney's office."

"I'm sorry, but please come to JDA immediately."

"Huh? Does that mean overtime?

"Is there such a thing as discretionary work?"

"Hmm?!

"Just come right away. From there, it's like a bottle on Yasukuni Street. I can use a taxi ticket."

"I see. Chief, how about dinner?

"Oh, I see. Then get me something appropriate."

Roger that.

Beautiful jumped into the nearby Dottore, ordered a pair of Milan sandwiches and German dogs, received the latte and cocoa M, and jumped into the taxi.

In fact, Saiga is a sweetheart.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

"Oh, beautiful. What's going on at this hour?"

In the Dungeon Management Section, all sections except the Surveillance section were saturated with the discovery of the safe area, and many people worked overtime.

"The section chief just called me."

"Ah, I was lying on my desk earlier. I was just talking about what happened."

Mitsumi thought maybe she read it, but then again, this call sucks, right? And tightened my mind.

"Wow, what's going on?

"Recently, there have been many urgent cases. Good luck with that."

That said, a colleague from the Dungeon Management Division winked and returned to his seat.

You're not saying good luck in any other way, are you? Mitsuki, who had dropped it off while putting an ambiguous smile on her face, walked quickly to the space in Saiga.

Chief, this is a package.

When Mitsui entered the section chief's space with a slip, Saiga looked at the report on the desk with her arms folded.

"Chief?"

Naruse, do you have anything to say?

Huh? Um... Good day? "

Saiga exhaled, pointing to the chair beside the desk, "Well, sit down."

"Ha. Ah, this. It's Dottore."

That said, Mitsumi lined up three types of Milan sandwiches in front of him and gave him cocoa.

"Whatever you like. Excuse me, too."

That said, I quickly gave up my German dog.

Dottore's German dog looks simple but tastes great for coffee.

Mitsumi liked this a lot since she was a student, and she used to go to the Mita 3-chome shop at the end of Saint Saka near the university. Smoking cessation seating is a little uncomfortable, but there were a lot of takeouts, so I didn't really care.

Dottore's Milan Sandwich A is a shop that cuts, and there is a shop that doesn't, and this is a shop that cuts. I was surprised when I went to other stores for the first time because there are many stores that do not cut.

The Takada Baba 1-chome shop also cut it, but this shop closed in the year Misaki graduated, and now it is called a cafe called COCO.

Saiga appropriately took the C of the Milan sandwich and put it in her mouth.

C, which has just become a new menu, is a sandwich with camembert cheese on a rich shrimp au gratin made with scallops and clams extract. It suits cocoa well... it depends on personal preference.

"Nh, you. What do you want me to do with this?

Saiga said while holding down the gratin that was about to protrude from the edge with wrapped paper.

"I don't like it, Chief. I don't know, so I pushed the section chief."

Beautiful said so with a flowery smile, in contrast, Saiga looked like she had crushed a bitter bug.

"Um... well, anyway, I need to ask you a few questions."

"I don't know if I can help you with anything more than what's in the report."

"There are a lot of things I want to penetrate, but this is the first one."

Saiga opened the page of the Whippoy capsule.

"I mean, is this the item box?

"That's what I asked, but apparently there are restrictions."

"Restrictions?"

"First of all, as I wrote in the report, it can only be a stand-alone item."

"When you put in a book, you only put in books?

Well, that's right. Instead, if you put in one book, you won't get any more. "

Oh, you mean one individually?

Hold the sandwich in your hand and squeeze it big.

Beautiful was impressed by the strange thing that a man had a big mouth on a boulder.

"I just didn't ask what to think of as one."

"So if you're packing a lot of stuff in a big bag and you're storing it, you might be able to get in?

"Yes, it is."

"It's still capacity, but...."

"I don't know if the limit is volume or mass. At least the 21 floors attached to it seem to be coming in."

"Can you carry this with you...."

"Rather, it seems to be called a DP-House, so I've put it in, so maybe that's the only way to get in anymore."

"Really?

"I don't know. But I'm not asking you to give it a try...."

"I don't know... but maybe not."

"Why?

"If there's more than one of those items, if there's only one, the D Powers won't test it."

Even if it wasn't D Powers, it wouldn't be worth a try at first.

In other words, it is very likely that they are intentionally hiding it if they have a DP house in them, even though they have the first one in them.

"I don't know. Miyoshi-san has an appraisal."

"What if that's what it says in the description?"

"Yes, it is."

If you ask, you're right.

Saiga glanced into the sky to think of something, threw all the remaining C's of Milan sandwiches into her mouth, poured them in with cocoa, and suddenly asked.

"Why are you so skewed to D Powers?

"What do you mean?

"No, since the end of last year, the important discovery has been D Powers' monopoly, right?

"To the best of our knowledge, they have a completely different perspective on the dungeon in the first place...."

Ordinary Explorers simply repeat 'Dive into Dungeons, defeat Monsters, and get Items and Orbs'. Because that's what professionals do, and amateurs enjoy hunting and adventuring.

Don't think of strange things, repeat strange experiments, or take strange actions. It is rare (rare) to have such leeway.

There are quite a few Explorers who have acquired orbs and potions and have acquired large amounts of money, but most of them have invested in the traditional world, and perhaps they are the only ones who have borrowed the entire deficit dungeon back around the world.

"After all, Yoshimura-san reported a suicide for the first time."

Beautiful remembered the time and giggled.

"Maybe the researchers will."

"I usually get frustrated by diving into dungeons. It's very impossible, such as the situation or the lower layers."

Wheat with great motivation to dive would be a very special example.

After all, without the support of D Powers, Midori thought she would have probably been frustrated along the way.

I don't know how many years it would take to get mining from zero to eighteen and dive to twenty.

"And what's more important to the dungeons than that?"

The purpose of a professional explorer is basically money.

Cut with a sword to defeat, shoot with a gun to defeat. No ordinary Explorer would think of an easier way to defeat such a monster without cutting it with a sword or shooting it with a gun.

The goal is to defeat monsters, so at best, I'll think about how to cut them with a sword.

In an era without the internet, such interesting magazines may have appeared and been done by the editorial department, but since the information moved to the internet, attention has been focused on a platform that can easily make money, and content development is even said to be an amateur or idiot thing to do.

It is a terrible story that such awareness is spreading even though there can be no platform without content.

But Miharu was convinced that D Powers was finding such a way.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Asha to get a D card, and it would be impossible to keep such a base in the dungeon. Normally, the slime eats me.

Of course, I didn't say it, but I thought that Saiga would look at it with the attached photos.

"Do you think any of them have any special skills?

"That said... Miyoshi-san has something that makes appraisals and hellhounds pets, so isn't it special from the beginning? They also seem to have a lot of water magic listed in the auction, and from what I've heard before, they should also have super recovery."

"Probably the best skill holder in the world if it's just a few. If we change the rules of the JDA so that all Explorers have to register their skills..."

"I've probably waited for you from the militia, but I think it's gonna take a while."

Well, isn't it realistic?

I've been talking about it at the WDA several times before, but I don't honestly register people who abuse their skills.

Even if it was management information, it was unclear what to manage, so it flowed every time. Even if registration is achieved, it simply adds momentum to the withdrawal.

"When it comes to this, I'm going to talk about whether you can definitely help me develop a safe area. Especially if it really works."

Of course.

"I hope you don't mind, but there are a lot of people in the neighborhood who are actually using the word in the sense that they want to cooperate."

Of course.

"But if they're in trouble, or if they know each other, I don't think they're going to be able to go back and forth between the ground and the 32 floors at all."

Of course.

"On the contrary, the more pressure you apply, the more you bend your navel. No matter how precious an item you try to take it away with might, you can see it smiling when you break it."

I felt like I could hear Miyoshi's voice without shuddering, broken in my beautiful ears.

"Chief, it's amazing. Perfect prediction (Predict), no, prediction (Precognition). You're like a psychic!

"I'm not happy at all. So do something."

"... yes?

Miharu, whose smile hardened her head so that she could not understand the story of Saiga.

"No, Naruse, you can do it, right? I have a track record of helping to acquire cross-linguistic understanding under conditions that don't make sense."

Kahhhh. Don't say things you don't understand!

"Here, I'll do the A of this Milan sandwich."

"I bought it...."

Saiga sighed loudly and dropped her shoulders, opening the last page and pointing.

"So, what the hell is this?

"Whatever they say....."

There, D Powers said, the purpose of Demiurgos was written concisely.

"The purpose of the man on the other side of the dungeon is to serve humanity? And that's why the dungeon was created?

"Yes"

"Any First Contact invasion of the SF's" Sheng "part?

"If you trust it, you'll be crowned, and you'll enter the" spin "of the great human pinch."

"Otherwise, it's an emerging religion. Dungeonism. On the other side of his journey are the people who say that they are fortunate to live. I wonder."

"Well, that's right...."

"So, what happens if you serve me? Do you need money or something?

"I don't know."

"Assuming this is true, how do we communicate our intentions?

"I don't know."

Well, Saiga smiled bitterly.

"And this, too?

Yes?

"Did you throw a round at me because you had trouble handling it?

"Yes"

I wondered where I learned how to use such a boss, but there was only one such place.

Saiga regretted a bit that it was too early to make him a full-time student.

"But this... what if I report it to the Dungeons Agency? If you report this to an international organization like the WDA, you'll be pursued.

After all, it says that you taught me something like the shadow of Demiurgos in the dungeon. There is no doubt that he is suspicious of sanity.

Mitsumi had omitted from the report that it was Dr. Tyler. If I had reported it before, I would have made it even more complicated.

"There's no evidence. He said that the five hours were kind of indirect evidence."

"Is that so... perhaps the almighty Demiurgos sent you?

"Exactly. When I realized it, it was one layer in a flash."

"Seriously... for a moment, that's five hours..."

It's meeting time, isn't it?

"But that won't prove it, even if it's strange. It would be more realistic to say that a transfer magic skill was discovered."

Saiga smiled bitterly at the meaning of what she was saying.

I didn't think the day would come when I would say that transfer magic was real.

"That's right. Ah, I've heard how to meet it."

"It wasn't in the report?

"I can't write this."

Beautiful shrugged her shoulders slightly. Saiga felt as complicated as she wanted to hear, but she finally lost her job and asked.

"... so what are you going to do?

"First, I go to the wandering hall and help the people who work there."

Help?

"Hopefully you'll drop soul-like items, and then you'll be invited to a hidden garden by getting an item called a soul vessel and placing the dropped soul-like item in the soul vessel."

Mitsumi knew that she might be waiting in the library of the wandering museum, but she couldn't talk about it because there was no final page.

"Soul? How do you get a soul vessel? And I'm like," Maybe! "There's too much penetration, I can't penetrate it. Anyway, first of all, it's impossible to reproduce."

It may not be impossible to go to a roaming museum.

But you're helping the people who work? Previously on public footage, there was a massive attack on the gargoyles of the army, but how can I help? I didn't know anything about Saiga.

"Sure, it's more likely to lose credibility if you write about it," he said. The method itself is dubious and almost impossible to reproduce. I suppose it's the same as the purpose of the dungeon. "

"Yes"

"However, even if I report it as it is, I don't think I can be told to give evidence. Doubting your sanity is bullshit, and it's not worth considering, just being thrown through."

"Why?

"'Cause that's what D Powers reported."

I'm telling you to give me some evidence, and if it really comes out, you know that it could be a big deal. Anyway, there must be some reason why you didn't submit the evidence until you told me.

"I mean, if D Powers actually has evidence, do you think?

"That's right. Do you have any idea how many foreigners have been in danger of deportation around them in the last three months?

"No"

"That's a lot of stuff I know. Nearly all direct humans have been destroyed, which is exactly what we call an untouchable. In fact, their reputation is much higher outside the country. In India and Europe, wizards are called, and they're already half legendary, otherwise they treat VIPs well over there. However, it might have the qualifier" Dangerous. "

"Does that mean the state is guarding Miyoshi-san?

I've never seen such people before. She met the mysterious Tanaka-san.

Saiga shook her head.

"Well, I think I'm doing something, but it's not that exaggerated. Most of the time, they call the authorities. He asked me to take it home because I was in the way."

"Eh, from Miyoshi-san?

Saiga bent her mouth to her side and shrugged her shoulders.

Recently, it seems that foreigners who have been defeated in various places have been discovered, but the Miyoshi did not know that it was actually the work of the Anubis, nor did they know about the wheat.

Those who went and fell were mostly safeguarded by the special circumstances of a safe society in Japan, so it is hardly news.

"That's why no country will lie to you. Where in the first place would someone report something like this without proof?"

That's right.

"Oh, I think I'm losing my hair because of the stress. If you get bald, it's your fault."

"So, what do we do?

"It's impossible to raise it on a normal route. That's why I'm going to throw a round."

"Huh? To the director?

"This kind of information doesn't make sense at the level of the Dungeon Management Department. Even if it's true, I can only say what happened. It's the right thing to do. Throw it where you can reach up."

Yeah?

"I throw a round at a great guy named Terasawa from the militia. I owe him a little. Looks like there's a connection around the house."

You mean troublesome.

Well, that's what I'm saying.

Saiga smiled hard and smiled at the A of the Milan sandwich she had.

Though I thought you might have given it to me, Mitsuki reached out to the last B. She likes shrimp and avocado sandwiches.

"Mmm-hmm. So, this is it?

When she swallowed it with a sip, Miharu confirmed it.

I see. Whipoi is a full-time commissioner, Naruse. Please don't do this. "

"Huh? Are we going to report this?

"Do you think it's okay not to report the reason or the way it's built on the 21st floor?

Well, that's impossible.

"If you report it properly, there are a lot of departments that are likely to do extra work, so let's add it to the item database. After that, become a field, become a mountain."

"Chief, haven't you broken recently?

"Who do you think is responsible for this?

"Well, it's time to go home!

In an attempt to leave before the spear turned towards us, Mitsuki hurried to eat the rest of the sandwiches and stood up with her skirt on.

"Oh, thank you. However, I still want JDA to have an appraisal."

"It's hard just to create a wandering museum. I think there are a lot of eyeballs. I don't know what you want to evaluate, but I think it would be quicker to ask Miyoshi-san now."

"But, hey, they didn't do the appraisal, did they? I know you're not alone."

Even if you made it clear that you wouldn't, once you took it on, the psychological hurdle dropped.

Looks like I can see him getting along and asking for it. It's like it's a privilege.

"I'm surprised you asked me to do it at the scene. Even on the 31st floor, the militia asked me to appraise the dropped items on the spot.

What?

"That's why I think it depends on how you take it."

"Do you have an idea?

Hearing that as she was about to return, Mitsuki talked briefly about a proposal to involve D Powers in the renewal of the Dan Intelligence Agency for generations, in cooperation with the Public Relations Section.

"That sounds interesting, but it's just too much trouble for them, right? You think you can help me?

"Chief, I just said, 'That sounds interesting.'"

"Is that it?

"I've been with them for three months, and that's how they behave."

You're a kid!

Beautiful affirmed with a bitter smile in an overly straightforward expression.

"That's what people call the genius of the world. And curiosity is the driving force for progress."

"I'm sure it's like 'natural disaster' for us. And he says he'll kill the cat, so be careful."

"Be careful not to lose nine lives. Now if you'll excuse me."

"Oh, hello for Whippoy."

Looking back at Mitsuki as if she had given up, she said, "It's okay to move after you have a specific story, right?".

"That's fine."

Roger that.

So Mitsumi left the JDA behind.

The lights in the Dungeon Control Division were still not going out.
