Life with a Tail

"I'm back now"

I knocked on the Captain's room and walked into the room without waiting for a reply.

Because at any rate this time I concentrate on clerical work and I don't get back to you busily.

If you go into the room, you will come to the guidance desk, and you will write the documents.

"Captain"

"... hmm? Oh, Nella, it's you. Thank you for your expedition. Are you tired? I can make you some tea, so you should sit down."

I guess I decided to take a break and listen to the report myself. I interrupted my clerical work and started taking two cups out of the shelves and pouring tea. I usually ask people...... naturally because I'm my boss, but when I come back from an expedition like this, it distracts me and makes tea from my hands.

He's a total difficulty because he can take care of these things, but he's usually out of them weirdly, and he's spooked by everyone.

"Thank you"

"Phew. … Well, I've heard roughly in regular contact, but would you like me to report the details again"

"It's just a guess, but the size and organization of the thieves are regularly communicated, with numbers ranging from forty to fifty, miscellaneous people about thirty percent of them, and the remaining seventy percent supposedly executive units and watchdogs"

"Thirty percent of miscellaneous systems… well organized"

If you're a regular thief, there's no choreographer. Each one of them, that's what they turn in charge of appropriately. I'm already a rough opponent at this point......

"... and one of the watchmen nearly nursed my cover"

"... what?

I'm going to stop my tea drinking hand and turn my sharp gaze to this one.

That would also be true, because not one person (...) has ever spotted my cover-up, including the head of the regiment.

"The other guy was a beast man. I think I was uncomfortable with the smell. Only one of them noticed."

"Nella, your cover won't even recognize the smell. Surely even our nosy members couldn't tell. You realize that... is that super sensory?

Supersensory. What is also referred to as a sixth sense beyond the five senses. I'm told not many people have a super sensation...... I can't think of anything else to be noticed, and it seems likely.

"If it's super sensory, it's a pain in the ass. I've encountered it about twice in the past, but the movement was so strange that I thought they were both predictive. It's not the kind I want to match."

You think I've been through such a rare case twice? Was it before I joined the group? If so, it was quite a while ago.

"If you don't think about this carefully and form a crusade, there's a chance this one will do the opposite."

"Yeah, the magic that was used to hide Azito was also a medium degree of practice. I was wondering if I could be caught off guard."

I'm pretty sure there's someone who can use magic, not just that guy. You look painful when you insult yourself with just a thief.

"And it's Mr. Natsuki..."

"Natsuki, what's wrong with you?... Speaking of which, we're not together."

You're too late to notice. I knew it was missing somewhere.

"Mr. Natsuki had accumulated too much fatigue, so I asked him to go home first. So, it leads to that."

"Oh, I guess I get it. Ruti, I guess I couldn't sleep well because I left you, and I ran out of sleep, huh?

Surprised. In the case of sexually involved stories, I don't even have a good guess about flattery.

"Have you thought of anything rude?

Oops, looks like it was on your face.

But what if the captain can tell...?

"Ruti, you don't seem to be sleeping very well here either. I had to rest my training."

Was it still so? It is not surprising that Mr. Ruti is in the same condition because Mr. Natsuki is in that state.

"You're quick to talk if you know what I mean. This time we had no choice but to make this kind of operation, but it seems that Mr Natsuki and Mr Ruti will have a lot of obstacles if we let them go. In the future, unless you have extra reason, you should have them move in one set."

"I know. Honestly, I didn't think you were so dependent. Never again."

Now you're okay. It was just heartbreaking to see Mr. Natsuki getting better every day, wasn't it?

"But Ruti came to you, too. Was it when the two of them left for about two days? I knew I was coming too. Besides, if you can't take part in the investigation, you can wait in the city."

You remind me of that time, you look pretty tired. That must have been packed pretty hard.

"But I can't give you permission to fly in a row, either, because we were both in the city at unusual speeds in the first place. I told him if he walked away, he'd be more likely to come back before he got there.

And now I'm telling you to give me a teleport. "

Commander, is this Teleport XVIII? That's also important for the image of magic itself, but it's quite challenging because you have to often imagine where you want to teleport, too. I can't do it even if I know the principles.

Even a few short-distance teleports are currently available, and only the commander of the regiment can reach long-distance teleports.

"So, well, I taught you because I think it's in the future... You're well mastered. I'm losing confidence, too."

"It's..."

As usual, those two are out of standard. Especially when it comes to magic, it feels like Mr. Ruti is losing one head.

But you've mastered the teleport, but you've never been to the city.

"Mr. Ruti, couldn't you even do a long-distance teleport? I didn't see you over there."

"No, I can also do a proper long distance.... but, Nella, I don't think I've ever been to the city where you're staying. That's what I mean."

I had to imagine the destination of the teleport, but I couldn't imagine it because I had never been there...

You must have missed the neighborhood with all the heart you wanted to see.

"After I found out about it, I shrugged off. There was a lack of sleep, and I was supposed to give it a rest."

"I see. Oh, it'll be an ex post report, but I've decided to ask Mr. Natsuki to take some time off"

"Okay. Ruti, you're giving me a break, and I'm gonna make sure you both get tired."

That concludes the whole report, and let's say I take the day off tomorrow to stretch my wings a little.

... Well.

"Captain, you haven't eaten yet, have you? In the meantime, I'm thinking of going to the store where the crew taught me, how about you join me?

"Mm, is that already the time?... Sorry, I still have quite a few paperwork, so let's not do this today"

"Though it doesn't even seem like a rush of paperwork?

"That being said and bracketing the height, when you realize it, you have a massive build-up. It's crazy not to rush."

...... ha. Well, I predicted. You've had the same interaction many times.

But you still think about it, don't you?

"It's dull..."

"Hmm? Did I say something?

"No, I didn't say anything"

Damn, you're a difficult man.
