No Fatigue: 24-jikan Tatakaeru Otoko no Tenseitan

The waves are slowly washing the shoreline of the headland, which protrudes toward the sea.

I just stared at the endless horizon as I stood at the tip of the cape.

From behind me, I hear Lilia and Melvi whispering.

"... what happened to him?

"Shit! Leave him alone"

"But it's been awhile since we got here. Yeah, right? It's been half a day!

"Edgar's not tired, so he's just fine."

"And yet, you leave me alone?

"Sometimes you want to be alone, don't you?

"I'll settle down with your mother."

You're just a kid.

"What! Melvi's isn't tiny!

"Me, I'm still alive?

"I'll treat you like a child!

Listening to the conversation between you two, I keep thinking.

Sometimes it's unthinkable in a busy day.

So make fun of your head, even in a flirtatious way, and just keep waiting for what comes up there.

Am I meeting people's expectations?

I try to live up to people's expectations. Haven't I lost sight of myself?

Do you think you can face the people who care about me?

If not, where is the cause of this?

How can I respect the person who favors me?

Is it really good for them to be told that they like it, to rise up and have a relationship?

What do I think of them?

Do you mistake sympathy for someone for love?

Conversely, are you not too timid about expressing your affection in an attempt to avoid cheap sympathy?

Thoughts loop.

Go and go again and again.

You know, I can't grasp anything that sounds like an answer.

Still, I keep thinking.

If you feel stuck thinking, throw out your thoughts and feel the sea breeze.

And think again.

In repeating such things, the thought of looping produces wattage, which gradually deepens into a waterway.

Repeated thought gradually turns into certainty.

Where is the end of the waterway and where leads outside is grasped.

Pull through dark, thin waterways, hitting obstacles over and over.

The conclusion I had before I fell out was not like glowing.

Very common sense thing.

That's why I felt the warmth.

(well... you forgot the obvious)

Selfishly stick to the criteria, that's fine, this is not good, say so and sort and truncate others. That's arrogant, and ruthless.

I've been trying to delude myself that I don't want to do that, but I have to, and it's also for them to do that.

I've been thinking about it all my life.

It's the feelings that matter.

That, too, was somehow invisible.

I just think about efficiency all the time as long as I can work for 24 hours more seriously...... no, is that an excuse too?

I don't think everything will work with that, but given the current situation, it's natural to do so, and you'll regret it if you don't.

In short, I got an answer to stick to myself.

I look up.

At some point the sun went down, and the sky had a moon.

Speaking of which.

Even when I first woke up in this world, I saw the moon in the sky.

The name of the moon is Luranus. I learned that thanks to the first skill I learned [appraisal].

I look back and follow the edge of the Cape.

Melvi was waiting for me there.... although Lilia lies down on a rock and sleeps.

"Enough?

"Oh. That's it for the getaway journey."

"... right"

"Melvi, I need a favor."

"I kind of get it. Tell your husband what's going on and ask him to do something about the spiritual nucleus of the water in the Eastern realm."

"You know exactly what I mean."

The eastern realm is a multi-island sea beyond the sea east of this continent - the Dragon Snake Tongue (Midgaldstan). According to Lilia, there is a spiritual nucleus of water there.

"Something faster to split. There are few ships on this continent that can sail the ocean. You're fast enough to go to Monocanus and get the king to lend it to you. So, outside of you and Jeremiah, your husband is probably the only one who can fight the devil. Well, if I can use my magic equipment, I can handle it."

I'd be more sure if I went out in person, but unfortunately I'm the only one.

It would be quicker for someone to see the Spirit Nucleus of Water while I head to the Spirit Nucleus of the Wind. I hear the Oriental realm is closed, but I don't think you'll be driven back without question if you write one to Vistogard I.

"I'm heading with Mitriglia to the Spirit Nucleus of the Wind. Just because the place is the place."

"Are you in the middle of an Elf Elementary dominion?"

"That's still good, but apparently in the middle of their sanctuary. Spirit supremacy, so maybe it's more natural that the Spirit nucleus of the wind is a sanctuary."

I'm heretically certified by them. It is also likely to be a battle without question.

Besides, if you're gonna set me up from the other side, you can do whatever you want and then let me talk to you.

... so it seems natural to solve it by force. I'm not a national cartoon bully, so I want to make it as easy as possible.... is that true?

"Wouldn't it be quicker for me of the fairies to go?

"What do you think? If you're bad, you might not see Melvi."

Bad people don't see fairies. It's common sense in this world.

So if you want to see a fairy, you have to be a good girl from day to day Promise to your brother.

"Oh well, was it possible..."

Melvi sighs.

"Come on, Lilia's here. Give us Agnia's name, complain about the Spirit Nucleus crisis, and you'll see what's going on, even if you don't let us through."

Check it out, if there's a demon pile stabbed in the spiritual nucleus, you might be interested in asking me to eliminate it.

Even if the enemy hadn't reached it yet, he'd do enough to tighten the security of the Spirit Nucleus.

It will be a tough negotiation, but I don't even think it's possible.

I almost think it would be a hassle if this was the work of the company I worked for in my previous life, but now I didn't feel that way with wonder. Because I believe from the bottom of my heart that this world has value to protect.

"What do you do about Jeremiah or Asla?

Melvi asks.

"If I can rendezvous with Mr. Alphesia, I'll ask him to do so."

"I think those kids want to come to you."

"Even so, it's at the end of the west right now, and there's no railroad like on the east side"

"No, I think you're taking a sweet look at those kids, huh? I'm sure those kids are coming after you. And it will come after us even to the end of the earth."

"Ugh..."

Melvi is right.

I think they have romantic feelings for me, not nagging...

They were both helped and set free by me under so many circumstances.

Compared to normal romance, I think some parts of it depended on the situation.

I've always felt resistant to having a romantic relationship in such a way as to give up about me as a savior.

Seriously, it has to do with the fact that I became a family member as my sister-in-law. It feels like you're too close.

Truth be told, Daddy Alfred said, "You can welcome me as Ed's fiancée, okay? I don't know what he said, but me, Jeremiah, and Asla were kids. You know, in previous life, you kind of wonder if getting engaged to an underage opponent, don't you?

"Me, I think... is that all you need to think about is discipline? Those kids like you, and you care about them, too. Well, then, I hope that was the relationship, and it's not more natural?

"Yeah, you are. In the end, I guess it's my side's obsession. Because of that, it bothered both of us."

"Then what?"

"My heart is finally set."

Melvi looked at my face seriously.

"... Huh? Sounds like you mean it, huh?

"I'm not gonna lie to Melvi."

"I don't know what you're going to do... but you look neat right now"

"Is that your opinion as a fairy?

It's your opinion as a partner.

Melvi stretches her chest.

"... hey, don't forget about the Spirit Nucleus, too, huh?

Lilia, who was placed outside the mosquito net, said blush.
