Rebuild World

Cheryl has a rugged look on her face at the base of Slam Street. Those who are frustrated, who try to be aware of it and suppress it, but are not good, and are more upset. It looks that way from the side (for).

But there was a slight impatience in his face that could be seen by the insightful. Cheryl herself was aware of it and desperately made an expression. The irritability and frustration were masks to hide the hearts filled with haste and anxiety from others.

A boy named Elio speaks to that Cheryl. There was a mild suspicion on that face.

"Cheryl. What's going on with that hunter named Akira? You're not coming at all."

"Shut up and wait. That's what you said, right?

"But yesterday and yesterday you said you were coming within it, but in the end, wait..."

Cheryl blocks Elio's words with a fierce sword screen.

"Shut up! I'm the boss! Follow my instructions! That would be the promise!?

The sword screen was supposed to be an act to deceive Akira from showing up. However, due to internal anxiety and haste, it had become excessively intense.

Elio accidentally shut his mouth, too. And exhale gently.

"... I get it. Boss."

It's a fact that I admitted Cheryl as my boss and stayed in jail. Elio stopped pursuing any further. But it was also clear from its face that suspicion and dissatisfaction had not disappeared.

Cheryl exhales loudly half acting. And to hold off the other person's suspicions, say something like that.

"I'm busy running hunters, and they're just a little behind me. You said you talked to Akira, but you're not in a position to order me to come right away. Don't you even know how much that is?

"Right. Sorry."

Go back to work if you know what I mean.

"Copy that. Boss."

Ellio answered in a slightly more approachable tone, but withdrew dramatically. But after a little distance, I grumbled in dissatisfaction.

"I thought you were Akira's favorite."

Cheryl was listening to the whining. Unexpectedly seeps into my face my inner anxiety and impatience. But he hurried back to his original irritable face. And make sure no one is looking at themselves, and then remove the caustic mask. Cheryl's face, which truly represented her true intentions, was so intensely colored that her anxiety and anxiety seemed to be zero (spilled).

(… it's creepy (first) if it stays that way. What do we do? Go look for Akira again?... No. If I'd done that many times, I'd be extra suspicious)

We all waited for Akira the day she said she would face the stronghold, but Akira didn't come after all. I didn't even come the day after that. I didn't even come the day after that. As a result, Cheryl's position had deteriorated considerably.

The new prison party, made up of children who belonged to the Civea prison party, has already resumed its activities with Cheryl as its new boss. Other inmates are also known to resume their activities because of the way they look for scrap iron (crumbs) and gold objects in the territory, nearby wilderness, etc., and because they are all headed to food distribution locations in Slam Street.

So far, I have not been harassed or violence shaken up. Cheryl's inmates believe it's because Akira is behind them. But Akira never shows her face at the base. Everyone had no choice but to be dissatisfied and anxious.

Cheryl managed to forgive everyone by explaining it while remaining calm on the surface. But there are limits to that, too. An irresistible rush begins to float in Cheryl's face, and those who see it intensify distrust and anxiety.

Cheryl is lying. It's not a lie, but Akira did. or (some) have already been abandoned. The inmates were leaking a lot of dissatisfaction and suspicion behind them. Doubts about Cheryl were already largely mixed with the gaze that could be directed at Cheryl. Even the surface is not as good as facing the blade yet, but it was only a matter of time.

Cheryl also notices how everyone is doing. But I don't have a hitter. There was no way to get in touch with Akira, I looked around the inn and couldn't find it. I didn't even think of the means to make the situation better, and I was cornered by a rush to recruit.

Akira showed up at that exact moment.

"Is there a guy named Cheryl? Oh, there he is."

"Akira!"

Cheryl's unexpected voice was only louder for what she was being hunted down. Because of that, the voice resonated to the back of the base. Naturally the attention is drawn, and the children come from another room to see how things are going.

When Cheryl returned to me, she hurried Akira to guide her to her room a little more forcefully. As soon as I pull Akira's hand into the room with me, I close the door. And manage to contain what swirls inside. Why didn't you come on Promise Day, if you scream with enthusiasm, you're totally done. I said it so desperately to myself that I smiled at Akira.

"Thank you so much for taking me to the base. I've been waiting for you. Um, I thought you could visit me the other night once you were due, was something wrong?

I don't care about being late or anything. Cheryl smiled and represented it. At least I made that effort.

"I'm sorry. I was gonna go, but I was dying a little bit."

"He was dying!?

Cheryl accidentally vandalized her voice. Akira answers flatly after being a little surprised by Cheryl's surprise.

"It's hunter business. Sometimes that happens."

Cheryl complains. I thought something must have happened. But all of a sudden, he didn't think he was dying of shards. When you return to me, you put your sincere rush on the table.

"So, are you okay?!?

"Oh. No injuries or health problems."

"Oh yeah...... Um, can I ask you what happened?

"I was attacked twice by a bunch of monsters on the same day. The aftermath of that battle, fatigued and somewhat late. Sorry."

Akira apologized mildly in a flat manner. The fact that I had completely forgotten the promise was silent with excuses to myself that I would not have to (deliberately) teach it.

Cheryl exhales a lot of soothing breath. And get back on your mind and smile (cheeks) lovingly.

"Really? Then you have no choice. It was tough, wasn't it? Safe and above all. I led them to my room to talk a little bit with just the two of us first, but they were all waiting for Akira, so I figured I'd finish introducing Akira first. Do you mind?

"Okay."

Cheryl takes Akira out of the room. And vomit stupidity inside.

(... at all, I don't know why I'm late, but don't threaten me. I know you're just flashly exaggerating martial arts and hardship stories anyway, but I want you to stop joking like that)

My position was behind Akira's back. I care about stories that threaten it and other jokes. But I'm not in a position to complain. In order not to upset the mood, we should keep up with the story of Yota here. Cheryl thought so, slightly distorting her face in disgruntlement so that Akira wouldn't see her. I didn't realize it was all true because of what Akira replied so plainly.

The children, gathered in the hall of the stronghold, had seen Cheryl in a good mood and Akira next to him and had spoken out their thoughts.

"I'm really here. I was pretty suspicious, but it was true."

"Is that the hunter who killed Sibea? You're a kid like us. Is that really him?

"Good. You weren't lying. That's a relief."

"He said we talked, how far are you going to help me? I'm worried."

"Hey, you don't look very strong, are you okay?

There were also a lot of skepticism, but my suspicions regarding the fact that I spoke with Akira for a moment were clear.

Cheryl smiles and confidently introduces Akira.

"He's Akira. I know you do, but Sibea and the others attacked Akira and were sent back. Please don't be rude because you're gonna help us on top of that."

Akira, prompted by Cheryl's gaze, starts talking a little cumbersome.

"It's Akira. I only work with Cheryl personally. I'm not willing to be a part of this. Cheryl is the boss. Ask Cheryl what you want to hear. Don't ask me anything unnecessary. Don't ask me again about what I said. More than from me."

The children begin to bother with confusion and confusion. Though nominally Cheryl is the boss, he reigns as a substantial boss as the back shield of the Jailed Party. Instead, they burn themselves a lot of care. Because the person who thought so showed an attitude that he wasn't really interested in the Jailed Party.

Cheryl had also slightly distracted her expression. But Akira doesn't care at all.

"Cheryl, I need you to come with me because I have a little errand to run."

"What? Oh, yes. Okay."

Calling Akira to leave with Cheryl as she did, in the way Elio panicked back to me.

"Hey, wait a minute! Are you really Akira!?

Akira stops, looks back and answers looking troublesome.

"Yes."

"Leave us alone, what have you been up to! What do you mean you're not willing to join the Jailed Party!? Aren't you going to take care of us or something!?

"I told you earlier. Ask Cheryl about the area. Don't ask me."

That annoying attitude greatly inspires Ellio, who was expecting and anxious to hear that Hunter, who returned the Sibears by himself, was on their side. It was causing distrust and dissatisfaction that the person would show no face at all. When I thought I looked gradually, the person was a child who looked armed but not strong at all, and I even remembered a mild disappointment.

In addition to the earlier words and this attitude. Skepticism about Cheryl and Akira swells all at once in Elio.

(... Doesn't it look weaker than me if I suck? Are you okay with this? You're putting our lives in the hands of this guy?

The Sibears were a lot of problematic hunter breakdowns. Still, he had enough strength to meditate on his eyes. To the extent that the death of Sibea and the others caused the party to collapse, they could be important force personnel.

I didn't even think Elio would be able to replace the child in front of me.

(... Did Cheryl trick me? No, Cheryl's been tricked by this guy, too, right?

If Akira beats me up on this spot, takes my gun and pokes it out, I might easily skin her off. I think so unexpectedly.

Akira looked so full of gaps trying to turn her back on herself again. That troublesome attitude seemed to make a fool of myself. Life has been really tough since the fall of Sibea's detachment party, and I felt it was over with bran (plump) joy, even though I thought I was able to get out of that life at the corner (because of it). They held Elio back.

"Fuck you!

Elio hits Akira as she screams. Surprise from behind. Just a few steps away. He doesn't even look noticed. It won't take a few seconds to hold my fist, shake it, and tap (just) it on the back of Akira's head. I'm sure it'll hit.

But the fierce fist was lightly smitten by Akira, who shook herself beside her without looking back.

"... be!?

Akira's fist slaps into Elio's face. Elio was beaten down by that blow and rolled to the floor.

Akira's combat abilities had risen exponentially in the short term due to Alpha training and several real-life experiences. It's almost impossible to beat Akira in those amateurs already. Even amateur opponents may struggle with surprises, but Akira is wary of her hands in the first place in alley life. If it is not under such circumstances, it will not be unintentional.

In addition, it is impossible to strike at the surprise of Alpha with much skill. I still taught Akira everything in advance about Elio's attack. It was because of that that Elio's attack was allowed to be carried out without even looking back. I mean, Elio hasn't had a winning chance at all since the beginning.

Elio, who was holding her face in pain as she fell on the floor, notices Akira looking down at herself. of the gun he was holding with a grumpy face, his muzzle and eyes met.

Elio's face tenses with fear. The children around them rush to distance themselves. Akira pulled the trigger without changing her expression.

There's a hole in the floor. There is no hole in Elio. I deliberately removed it. But Elio couldn't move like he'd been shot dead. The face was already frightened. Neither Cheryl nor the other kids could speak up.

Tell Cheryl that Akira looks grumpy.

"Cheryl. I don't care where you add anyone to the party, and that's not what I found out. But you're the boss, so do it right. You tried to kill me on Cheryl's orders. Before I make that mistake. Let's go."

Akira leaves the room intact. Cheryl also rushes to follow. Only Elio, who was unlikely to get up temporarily in the room, and the frightened children of Akira were left behind.

Cheryl is throwing up a curse on Elio on Akira's side (soba). For once, I haven't spoken to my voice. He left the stronghold while being guided by Akira and continued straight on through Slam Street. I haven't been told where to go or anything, but I can't even afford to hear that. It followed in silence, continuing to curse Elio silently.

Then, I can talk to Akira inadvertently.

"Is that a good idea?

".................. Huh?

Cheryl couldn't even respond to his surprise because of what he did, and he gave back his surprise. Without realizing Cheryl's lack of room, Akira wonders if she simply didn't have enough words, she adds.

"No, didn't you call it in order to make me do something like that? Didn't I?

Confirm Akira's condition with Cheryl's head, which began to gradually turn in a straight (decent) direction. The grump I was showing at the base is nowhere. Flat. From there, he decided that Akira's attitude at the base was half acting and at least he didn't remember any anger at himself. So when I'm relieved (mostly), the next thing I know, I laugh bitterly and get on with Akira's story.

"I was certainly going to ask for that, too. But we may have gone a little too far."

"Right. I'm sorry, but Cheryl will do the following around. I don't care if you expect me to."

"Okay. So, where are we headed?

"We're almost there. Oh, right there."

He pointed to the trailer where Akira was parked in the open space. It's a trailer that's also a simple store for the cuttlefish. When I take Cheryl that far, Darris, who was the store number, notices Akira.

"Akira. Are you all right now?

"Oh. I'm fine. I was surprised to find out it had been three days."

"Right. Safe and above all."

Akira and Darris laugh lightly at each other. There was unease among those who dived the same dead line, although there were different ages, positions and strengths.

"So, what can I do for you? If you're a guest, take a look."

"No, I need to talk to Katsuragi for a second. Can you call it in?

"Wait a minute. Cuttlefish! Akira's here! I don't know what it is, but I need to talk to you!

A snail comes from the back. And look at Akira and the others and laugh lightly.

"Akira. Even after I fainted and fell, I could afford to take a woman and show her face. So, what's the story? We need to talk to the merchant. You refuse to do anything but make money, right?

Akira laughs a little provocatively.

"That depends on the cuttlefish's business talent."

"Then make money."

The cuttlefish also returned an extra grin.

Katsuragi devises Akira's proposal with a serious face. Instead of bringing the artifact into the Katsuragi store, I want Cheryl's detachment to be convenient. He continued to account for damages if he accepted that Akira proposal.

Buyers of artifacts exist in many other places besides the Hunter Office Direct Store. There is so much demand for artifacts, and their benefits are very great. The cuttlefish are not in the main business either, but they are buying artifacts.

The convenience to Cheryl and the others is fine if you use your own passage. Just to prevent people from being licked and beaten up with scraps of iron, etc. because they are from Slam Street is a great aid to Cheryl and the others. Even people in slum districts who have no credibility can mediate a little work (mediation) with the likes of snails.

Akira's strength is well known. With that strength, we deduce the quality and quantity of artifacts that we would be able to bring back from the ruins, and we draw the margin of time (hima) to bake the care of Cheryl and the others out of the profits of their purchase and sale. The loss account went black in Katsuragi's head. On top of that, he turns his gaze on Akira as if he were surprised.

"I owe Akira, too. Besides, buying artifacts is gold. Sure, it's worth considering."

"Is that a deal?

"Well, wait. Before I decide on that, I'd like to ask you a few questions. Let's start with you and her relationship."

I pointed my gaze at Cheryl like a snail worthy of a lot of things. Cheryl's tension increases. Akira was looking a little strange.

"Why are you asking me that?

"Why, you're the one who told me to give him a hand. It bothers me. Besides, in the process of baking care, it could be a long-term business partner in some cases. So, what's the relationship? acquaintance or friend? Family? Lovers? Mistress?"

"There's a little connection between kids in Slam Street. We're good friends to the extent that we bring these stories together. But if it gets in the way, I'll cut it off. That's the relationship."

"Right."

Katsuragi shelved it once, trying to discern her relationship with Cheryl from Akira's attitude.

"The next thing I know, I'm buying artifacts, just in case. Bringing artifacts into my shop isn't gonna boost Hunter Rank, is it? I haven't partnered with the hunter's office on buying and selling artifacts. Based on that, I'm guessing.

To increase your Hunter Rank in the sale of artifacts, you need to at least bring them to your Hunter Office partner. There are also malicious vendors and scams that try to use the efficient rise in hunter ranks as bait to buy artifacts for an unduly cheap amount. Sometimes the seller mistakenly assumes that it is a partner store and rubs it.

Hunter rank is an important factor in determining a hunter's character. Even if you gain by adding them to their ignorance, it doesn't suit you to create that hunter-rank tangled rub. He admitted Akira was a competent hunter, at least to the extent that he judged it so. That's why I was only taking firm confirmation for that.

Akira answers flatly.

"I have nothing to complain about as long as you buy it at a high price for it. I want more money than Hunter Rank for the moment. If you are dissatisfied with the purchase amount, take it to the Hunter's Office shopping office as before"

"Right.... All right! We have a deal!

Katsuragi finished shaking hands with Akira to enter into business negotiations with the merchant's smile. Go on and ask Cheryl to shake hands with the same smile. But Cheryl was strangely confused, and he couldn't hold his hand.

"What's up? We need to shake hands."

"Shh, excuse me"

Cheryl rushes to hold Katsuragi's hand. Then he was unexpectedly gripped back with a strong force. I accidentally transfer my gaze from that hand to the snail. And as soon as I saw that face, Cheryl solidified. From the snail's smile, only his eyes were grinning away.

"Don't betray me, okay?

Katsuragi is clearly threatening Cheryl. With his expression, his gaze, his voice, his grip, he was telling the end of the line if he refused that terminal request.

People go crazy with money. Katsuragi knows it well as a merchant. And economic hardship lowers the lower limit of that amount. That's why life and credibility are cruel and cheap in Slam Street. One bullet's worth of gold is enough to trample the lives of others and their own credibility.

We can't talk about closing a serious (decent) deal with the slum dwellers without threatening them as much as we did from the beginning. That's what Katsuragi thought.

But it was a little too much. Katsuragi's businessmen are hunters who kill each other with monsters in the wilderness. The amazing arms dealer, usually directed at the hunters, was a little too strong for the only (just) child in Slam Street. Cheryl was under barometric pressure, trembling and unable to respond.

I thought the snails had done too much and weakened the intimidation. That's where Akira pinches her mouth.

"Tell me if you want to cause too much trouble. I'll handle it pretty well over here."

"To what extent exactly do we do this?

"To the point of killing and dumping them in the wilderness."

Cheryl trembles loudly once. I'm also a little surprised by the snails. Neither of them sounded like a joke.

"You're making it quite clear, aren't you?

"The wilderness is life-threatening in the wilderness, but the slums are life-threatening in the slums. I'm not stupid enough to do something like that. Maybe."

"Maybe?"

"There is absolutely nothing in the world. If not, I'd never have been attacked twice by a herd of monsters on the same day."

"It must be!

The cuttlefish laughed joyfully and luxuriously. And when Cheryl let go of her hand, now she turns a loving grin.

"I'm sorry I threatened you. There's a lot going on in the world. Let's get along."

"Yes, sir"

Cheryl tried her best to make a loving laugh. But it was hard to call it a smile, but I couldn't help but feel a little distorted (boiled) in my face.

Akira asks the cuttlefish without worrying about how that Cheryl is doing or anything.

"Oh, yeah. You don't sell information devices? The one that's cheap and ready to use. Function is minimal and good"

"At the very least, people make a difference, don't they?

"If only you could get in touch with me. I'm in touch with Cheryl."

"Then it's 20,000 aurum."

When Akira paid 20,000 aurums to buy an information terminal, she connected it to her information terminal once and finished the initial setup before passing it to Cheryl.

"Let me know if anything happens. Think of me as dead if I can't reach you for a long time. each other."

"Wow, I get it. Thank you. Sit down."

"And I'm talking about wanting you to show your face to the base on a regular basis, but I figured for the moment, no. It's basically a lot of hassle when you schedule poorly because you're on your own doing whatever you want. I don't mind Cheryl calling me on a regular basis. If I don't have business at that time and I feel like riding it, I'll show my face. So stop calling me every day. You get it?

"Yes, sir"

"Then I'll go home because I have business to attend to. Cheryl..., tell me about Katsuragi and the support of the Jailbroken Party."

The cuttlefish call Akira to a slight dissatisfaction.

"Dude, I got a corner (because of it) face. Buy something."

"I'm sorry. I don't have any money. Do it again."

That's what Akira left behind. The leftover cuttlefish and Cheryl face each other.

"Well, then, Akira told me, and shall we pack up the story? Are you all right with your time?

"Oh, yes. It's okay. Please be kind."

Cheryl regained her mind and bowed her head politely.

Katsuragi asks, laughing lightly, when she sees Cheryl as worthy again.

"It's about Akira being gone, too, and I ask you again, what does that have to do with Akira?

"It's a relationship as Akira talked about earlier..."

"I see. Let's hear it again. What kind of relationship are you gonna have with Akira? Is that what you're after, Akira's lover or mistress?

Cheryl listens back carefully after deciding that she can leave a bad reply in the future.

"... does that have anything to do with my support for the Watchmen?

Katsuragi laughs in the face of a merchant.

"There's a lot of it. I'm going to stay with Akira for a long time, but it's up to you and Akira to do the same. Wouldn't you? I don't know if you're going to have a more intimate relationship with Akira or if you're going to get dumped in it, but I need to see if you're willing to. So, what do you say? How was Akira earlier, is that hard?

After knowing he was being explored, Cheryl laughed daringly (ah) eh confidently.

"Of course (of course) I am willing to. And you think I'm liked by Akira, don't you? This is how you burn your care is proof of that. Different? I think Akira's attitude earlier just showed Mr. Katsuragi that he wasn't being licked (nah) by slum city kids. Akira is a hunter, too."

If you wander here, you'll be seen lightly. Cheryl thought so and made a desperate expression to push it through, even though she thought it was a little impossible for herself.

But the snail blew out gently after staring at Cheryl as he explored again.

"I even used my body to ask Akira out, but it feels like she turned me down."

Cheryl's expression hardens. The snail giggles with a little invincibility and fun.

"How do you know that? It's not uncommon for an economically well-earned hunter to bring a woman to the store. That's about all you can tell. Whether the man is getting into the woman with him or, conversely, is it time to throw it away, because if you don't spot it, you'll miss your business opportunity. The former is a good opportunity to sell expensive equipment. They make me look good trying to show a woman something good. You were pretty much on the latter side, weren't you?

In fact, to elicit Cheryl's reaction (to) is clear, and there is no basis or confirmation to that effect. But Katsuragi confirmed from Cheryl's reaction that he had asked Akira to turn him down.

"But well, isn't that what you have to do? Sorry, but it's not you... Yeah, it's not like I'm making fun of you. This is about the standards of the hand. Maybe Akira's eyes are fat."

"... what does that mean?

Cheryl was unconsciously distorted (boiled) by a suspicious look on her face. It is not an attitude directed at those who plan to support the inmates. Cheryl usually pretended to be fine and wielded her love. I mean, I was so upset that I couldn't do that.

The snail giggles to enjoy the reaction.

"This is my theory, there are many beauties in a woman hunter. When I say hunters here, I mean the ones who make good money as hunters. Except for a self-proclaimed hunter who just registered as a hunter. People will have their own standards for beauty, but there will still be some common denominator, certain standards. I think it's healthy."

"Health......?

"That's right. It means that it is judged healthier and more beautiful, such as the gloss of the skin, the gloss of the hair, and the fleshy condition. In that sense only, the hunters who make money are going to be beautiful. Poor health can interfere with movement. We are naturally concerned about getting well in order to survive the dangerous ruins. On top of that, I always treat injuries (injuries) on a cell-by-cell basis because I use a lot of healing pills that are high for the recovery of injuries (injuries) and fatigue. At that time, the skin roughness will heal together. Obesity is almost impossible either. He's been exercising heavily in the wilderness. Besides, some restorative medicines turn excess fat into energy to rapidly restore fatigue. Nature and health will keep you beautiful."

Cheryl had listened to the story with interest. At the same time, there was a little atrophy in the contents that I couldn't help myself.

"Treatment on a cellular basis with restorative drugs can also be described as a kind of anti-aging. That's mostly why some hunters have youthful ones that are far from their real age. Well, they talk about making plenty of money and spending a lot of money on beauty. So, compared to those guys and you, hey, hey. The hunter Akira knew was beautiful, too."

Katsuragi remembered Elena and the others. They were both quite beautiful. That's when I brought Akira back, so I'm wondering if we're pretty close. No wonder Akira has gotten used to seeing Elena and the others' beauty, raising her standards for beauty. That's what I was thinking.

Cheryl shivers her voice a little.

"... so what are you going to do with it by telling me? What's the point of telling me that?

Seeing how Cheryl looks like she's going to regret it somewhere, the cuttlefish laughs meaningfully and well.

"It makes sense for you to better understand what I'm about to say. Let's do something good for you. Wait a minute."

That's what Katsuragi left behind and went back to the back of the trailer. I hear the snails from the back.

"Darris! Where did you put the previous test piece!

"It won't decrease at all, so I thought you cleaned it up in the back!

"It was! Ok!"

The scallops will come back after a while. And put the larger bag I brought in front of Cheryl.

"You kept me waiting. I'll do this to you. A souvenir. Take it home."

Inside the bag were preserved foods that were about to expire and guns that were not for sale. They're all precious to Cheryl and the others. Cheryl rushes to bow her head.

"Oh, thank you. I'll sit down."

Take out the bag the snail is in the bag and show it to Cheryl.

"This contains cosmetics and soap. It's a test piece. It's sold by a company that sells healing pills for hunters and stuff, and it should be better than the cheap stuff there. Use this to sell the Mae (Ko) to Akira, but keep your appearance to such an extent that you think the Mae (Ko) will be happy to be sold. I'll tell you what, this is an investment. I don't know why Akira cares about you, but for now, you're the reason Akira's coming to sell me artifacts. Good luck to you too so Akira doesn't dump you and you don't lose your reason for that. All right?"

Cheryl manages to answer with a slight smile.

"Yes, sir"

"I'm hoping we're gonna be friends for a long time, huh?

Katsuragi was laughing invincibly. There was a mixture of familiar similarities directed at the accomplice.

Akira decided to stop by Sizka's store to finish refilling the ammunition before returning to the inn. Sizka immediately notices Akira and invites her when she enters the store. He then moved (intentionally) from the other side of the counter to the front. While Akira wonders a little about it, she honestly tries to get to Sizka's side (buckwheat) and get her order done as usual.

"Mr. Sizka. Ammunition again, please. I consumed quite a bit, so this time quite a bit more..."

Sizka blocked the order and hugged Akira tightly.

Akira rushes out to sudden things. Upset by the warmth of Sizka's body temperature and soft chest feel, she tries slightly to get out of Sizka's embrace on grounds of confusion, embarrassment, etc. But after figuring it out, Sizka kept holding Akira tight, without worrying.

Eventually Akira grows up. Then he speaks in a gentle voice, as Sizka waited for it.

"I heard from Elena and the others. I also know how dangerous it is to run a hunter. Sometimes I know I have to. So I can't tell you not to imitate the danger or force it. So I'll just say this instead. Glad you're safe."

Sizka let Akira go after strengthening her cuddling powers a little at the end.

Akira had a slightly stunning look on her face as she watched Sizka smile. But I immediately laughed and lowered my head.

"I'm sorry for your concern. It's okay now."

Akira's reply is so firm that she doesn't think she was a person who was unconscious for a few days. I'm not forcing you. I guess it's really okay. Sizka made that decision and smiled safely.

"Akira's safe and above all. Ammunition refills, huh? I'll bring it right away. Wait a minute."

As Akira waited for Sizka to return, Elena, who came into the store, laughed at Akira and came to her side (buckwheat).

"Akira. You're awake. I can't believe I'm here. I told Sarah to call me when Akira wakes up..."

Elena notices the information terminal notification and stops the words. And I checked the contents and laughed bitterly.

"Coming. It's late, Sarah. You forgot."

Akira bows her head to Elena.

"I also apologize for the inconvenience caused to Elena. Thank you so much for all your help. Sit down. And I'm sorry. It's like I was occupying the bed."

"Never mind. It's big enough for us to sleep together. More than that, Sarah was unconsciously replacing Akira with a pillow, okay? Sarah is a physical expander, so yeah, she can see and she's a monster, right? Not broken bones or anything?

Elena smiled joyfully. Akira giggles and gives it back.

"Yes, I'm fine."

Maybe it's all a joke. Akira decided to assume so.

Cheryl's footsteps back to base are heavy. Cheryl was a lot of limitations.

Akira's failure to show her face at the base was viewed with disbelief by inmates. I thought I was going to die. When I finally saw my face, a member of the Jailed Party sold Akira a fight. I thought I was going to die. He was intimidated as much as he could by an arms dealer named Katsuragi. I thought I was going to die. Akira made it clear that if I did something stupid, I would kill him. I thought I was going to die.

When you get back to base, you have to pretend that everyone is good at everything. And I have to keep instructing you to be good at everything. We must continue to show confidence and spare time to the inmates and to other inmates. That's until the day it ceases to be an act. Cheryl was a lot of limitations.

Upon arrival in front of the stronghold, Darris, who had sent Cheryl so far, left the bag unmade on the ground.

"I won't carry you inside. Carry it yourself after that."

The cuttlefish souvenirs are only fairly heavy for packed firearms, etc., and Cheryl carries them a little tight. Plus, if you get robbed on your way home, there's no point in handing over souvenirs at the corner (because of it). For this reason, the snail was distracted and accompanied Darris.

Cheryl carefully bows her head.

"Okay. Thank you for dropping me off and carrying me here."

"Well, you're gonna be tough, too, but good luck"

When Darris got a slight positive impression on Cheryl, who was courteous to the children of Slam Street, he went home with his share of words.

When Cheryl managed to lift the heavy bag and enter the base, all the children of the inmate party waited (about). Cheryl distorted her expression in a grumpy manner, although she was right to welcome the boss. Because one was supposed to be missing in the prediction. Turn that extra person to a tight gaze with inner emotions on it. It's Elio.

"I thought you were gone for a while, but you were still there?

Elio tries to get Cheryl to forgive herself.

"Cheryl, Cheryl, I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry? If you have the intelligence to understand it was bad, just disappear."

"Heh, I looked like a normal kid. I had a gun, but that didn't make me look like an awesome hunter, so I thought Cheryl was being cheated or something..."

"A normal child? Normal......"

Cheryl, who was a lot of limitations, crossed the limits of his patience to Elio, who had no indication of ever leaving with a lot of excuses. I yell out my inner fierceness on the table.

"Ordinary child!? The one who lightly kills three armed hunter collapses is normal!? Normal kids who can do that!? What's normal in your head!? Normally, you can do it too!? Then you do it, too! Go to the ruins now and fetch the artifacts! Come back in return, even if the one who targeted the artifact on your way home attacked you! You can do it!? Do it! Now!"

Cheryl shouted so loudly and repeated his rough breath. Elio is frightened. The other children were silent on Cheryl's sword screen.

Cheryl yells at everyone.

"Kick that fool out! Come on!"

"Ma, wait!

"Quickly kick him out! My boss would be directing!? You must have admitted I'm the boss!? If it's not, you guys get out too!

The children who were near Elio face to face once. Then I grab Elio's shoulder and arm and pull it. Elio was carried away without showing resistance.

Cheryl breathes slowly. I know it lacks calm. Calm must be restored in order to reduce further inconvenience. I told myself that and repeated my deep breath.

A girl named Alicia, close to Elio, speaks to Cheryl.

"Che, Cheryl..., it's Elio..."

Cheryl screamed as much as he wanted and was regaining some calm thanks to spitting out together what was hoarding (inside). I was back in my head thinking calmly about what to do in the future. Still, give Alicia a tough look.

"... I know. I know, but not now. You can't leave Elio behind in the Jail Party. That's how Alicia figured it out, right? With more people on the sidelines, Akira won't even notice if Elio is mixed up, or if time passes, Akira will forget about Elio, or she won't."

Another child asks Cheryl looking a little surprised.

"Are we going to increase the number of prisoners? In this condition?

"I'll increase it. whenever possible. There are only a few things you can do with a small number of people. I need to be able to make some money so I can do a lot of things quickly."

"But is it okay to have more people in this state?

"I can't do it. Akira will see us through if we don't get some kind of profit handed over as soon as possible. Even Akira is not helping us with charity. If Akira cuts us off, we're done."

"So, but how..."

"Thanks to Akira, we got a story about a guy named Katsuragi. I was supposed to get some help from that person. We'll have to do a lot of things with them."

Open the bag that Cheryl left on the floor. The children cheer modestly when they see the food and weapons in it.

"Thanks to Akira and Katsuragi for everything. Plan and distribute properly…"

Cheryl sees whoever tries to reach into the bag on his own, and makes an awesome voice.

"If you take it on your own without my permission, I'll kill you."

The children's hands stop. And slowly put the hand I reached into the bag back.

Cheryl looked over at everyone and exhaled deeply, imagining the hardships she would have to lead them to develop the Jailbroken Party from now on.

Elena is still operating a head-mounted information terminal in the bath today. He just dressed up in a bath towel without wearing the same underwear. Look at that, Sarah is slightly stunned.

"Elena. Are you wandering around the house dressed like that again because Akira's home?

Elena also weighed herself on boulders when she was staying in Akira. It's heterosexual, albeit sleeping younger. He was dressed properly near his bedroom so Akira could wake up suddenly. But now I'm already wandering around the house dressed like this.

Elena showed no care and was dazed by Sarah's outfit, which only wore a shirt and underwear.

"It's nothing good. I don't want Sarah in that outfit telling me all the time. Could it have been that outfit when Akira woke up?

"That's right."

"Sarah, what are you doing? Mind your business."

"It's okay. Akira didn't react badly."

"That's not what I'm talking about. Totally..."

I add to Elena, who was dazed and lightly held her head, as if Sarah was laughing and nothing.

"Well, that's good. It's a fine service to the benefactor of life."

Elena looks at Sarah with a little surprise. Sarah changed her expression to something only slightly more serious.

"It was Akira who helped us then."

…… Yes. "

Elena's reaction was much calmer than Sarah expected. Sarah gives me a slightly unexpected look.

You're not too surprised.

"Even I was expecting it. Even Sarah, right? I just didn't try to confirm it from myself any more than Akira was hiding it from me. You didn't think Akira would talk to you, so Sarah told you? Were you okay?

Sarah gave a slight bitter smile and a slightly sorry attitude.

"It's okay. He apologized the other way for hiding it. I heard it quite forcefully."

"That would be good, but no, not good, but you must have apologized properly for what you couldn't possibly hear, right?

"I apologized."

"That would be good. I know you owe me your life, and that's why I took care of you to death, so don't bother me too much, okay?

"I know."

Talk that far before Sarah turns her serious face to Elena.

"So I need to ask Elena a favor, and I know Elena has a lot of questions and stuff, but I want you to stop asking Akira that. I want you to stop talking to other people. That's what I promised Akira. Please. Really, please. You may not be convinced, but tell me you promise not to ask me anything."

That's what I promised. So at all costs, I need you to snort. Sarah was ready to ask her best friend to be strong.

Contrary to Sarah's intentions, Elena snorted lightly, but firmly.

"Okay. I promise. I won't ask Akira anything extra. I won't tell anyone. Don't worry."

"... good?

Sarah was mildly confused that the story had gone too easily. Elena laughs and continues.

"I told you, didn't I? Even I was expecting it. So I can imagine why Akira was hiding it and what she didn't want to be asked. Maybe Sarah asked Sizka a lot, too, right? Don't worry. I'll keep my mouth shut. As I said, I'm not going to bother you with my life."

Sarah smiled bitterly after being mildly surprised.

"... you foresee it all. Was I that easy to understand?

"You've suddenly asked me about the old realm connectors. Sarah, if you really want to hide it, why don't you ask me something bad? If someone asks you something, imagine why you ask them."

Sarah laughed softly to regain her mind after being convinced that she had lost consciousness and was only slightly concave.

"... I knew you were right to leave Elena with our negotiator."

"Well, I'll leave you to it. Next time you see Akira, you'll have to thank me properly."

That's it, then Elena laughs invincibly and joyfully.

"So Sarah. Now that I know who the benefactor of my life is, can you let me know what it feels like they weren't some millionaire's sergeant?

Sarah looks a little embarrassed and distorts her expression.

Give me a break.

Sarah was a little worried about Akira, but that solved it and blew it off. Sometimes I was pointed out with a slightly embarrassing fantasy in a mood that could be said to have returned to me, which was unusual and quite illuminating.

Elena was showing a little sick and laughing with pleasure when she saw her best friend completely back on her feet.
