"Nayu-chan, I need a favor."

While holding the crying Puni, I called out to Nayu behind me.

What is it, Mr. Shannon?

"Nayu can talk to the person in charge, right?Then I want you to say this."Erasing this bug shouldn't be the best thing for the operation."

"What do you mean?"

"If you erase Puni, the big book of the bug, it will be easy.However, if you don't know the cause, there is a possibility that you will repeat the same thing again. "

"... that's true."

While stroking Puni-chan, who was swallowing in his arms, I continued.

"You can look at the program and investigate it until you know the cause.But don't rewrite or delete it.Because Puni-chan won't be bad anymore.I'm watching. "

"... that's right..."

I didn't see Nayu's expression standing behind me, but it looked like she was worried.

"I know it's hard.But this is my lifetime request..... "

I beg desperately. I'll do anything I can.So I managed to get Nayu's help.

"... don't worry, Mr. Shannon.The developer of this game is not a person who doesn't listen to the voices of others.Besides, I'm also on your side... with Sana-san! "

"Well then...."

"Yes, I will persuade you of anything.Leave it to me! "

Great. That's just what Nayu said to me!

And that's when it happened. I heard a lot of footsteps from behind.

"Mmm!? You guys are normal users.What are you doing here? "

Looking backwards, there were many people in protective clothing wearing gas masks.

These guys with guns in their arms are the operations team that logged in directly to get rid of the bug.

Take a deep breath and hold Puni-chan tightly to hide from me.

"Wait, I'm Inuzushi Nayu.The developer of this game is the sister of Inufushi Ao! "

So Nayu started explaining to the management team.

"Oh, Nayu-chan! Were you looking into this bug too?"

"Yes, and as a result, the problem was resolved."

"Yeah!? Really!?"

"That's true. That evidence should allow us to begin the maintenance.Sorry to bring you here, but please log out and get ready to start maintenance.Of course, don't forget to post the announcement to the player. "

Nayu gives instructions.

"Hmm. Got it. Let's talk more about maintenance later!"

"That's right, but please refrain from taking the liberty of starting maintenance.I will explain the situation directly to my brother, so we will deal with the bug afterwards.Please don't play with the program on your own. "

"Okay, I'll tell everybody.What are you going to do now? "

"I still have to sort things out here.I think it will fall at the same time as the maintenance starts. "

At the end of the explanation, everyone on the management team saluted Nayu and even greeted all of us before disappearing with a logout.

... yeah. Nayu-chan is the operator again.Besides, it seemed quite admired.

"Nayu-chan, thank you for your help.I'm so glad you're in this clan! "

"It's okay. I have this clan where I belong."

If you say so, I am very happy to be the one who created this clan.

As soon as I did so, I received an announcement from Operations.

As I mentioned earlier, emergency maintenance was to be carried out again.

"Puni-chan, you're not interrupting the maintenance anymore, are you?"

"... yeah. Instead, let me stay until the maintenance starts."

Puni-chan can't leave without following me.That's why I kept stroking to reassure Puni-chan a little.

In front of the boss on the second basement, I hugged Puni until the moment the maintenance came in a few minutes later.And while it was time for the warning, my vision was dark and I was lying on my bed when I noticed it.

Mandatory logout due to start of maintenance.The game seemed to have been properly closed this time, and when checked from the headgear, the Dungeon Quest was indicated to be under maintenance.

This time it is an emergency maintenance, and the maintenance end time has not yet been decided.I was doing housework in the meantime, but to be clear, I was worried about Puni and couldn't concentrate at all.

Check the official Dungeon Quest site every few minutes to see when you can log in.It was repeated over and over again, and time went by just that.

I trusted that Nayu-chan would do well... I trusted that Puni would see you again, and I just waited for a time that seemed like eternity.

Finally, the maintenance end time was announced.It was written that it would end at 18: 00 in the evening, and I decided to wait until that time again.

- And then at 18: 00.

I waited with the headgear on and logged in at the same time.

Standing at Lisbon, the usual square of the city, I look around.Like me, there were more and more other players who logged in at the right time.

I wonder what happened to Puni....

With such anxiety in mind, I took a step forward.
