Rebuild World

When the stomach was filled with satisfaction and fullness, and Akira gained a gradual (slight) resistance to gastronomy, the only dish left was dessert. I could have ordered extra dishes, but Akira hesitated to leave the dishes served, and stopped ordering extras at the end of Goto.

Akira hands on an artistically processed dessert. Siori asks Akira with the same dessert in her mouth.

"So Master Akira has been running hunters all by herself?

Answer Siori's question as Akira is half stripped of consciousness by the taste of dessert.

"Oh. I'm on my own. I haven't been a hunter that long, even if they say so."

Siori was trying to get a lot out of Akira to get to know Akira better. However, Akira was able to answer directly. We talked several times during the meal, but Akira, who was obsessed with the meal, didn't even reply to Busy (Roku) in the sky somewhere up there. As a result, there was not as much information about Akira that Siori had obtained.

"Don't you have any plans to recruit fellows or belong to some inmate party? Make it a crusade, make it an artifact search, I know it's a lot for you alone."

"Well, yes, but so far, I'm more sexually suited to working individually. If you're alone, you don't have to rub (or) rub (or) rub (or) rub (or) rub (or) rub (or) rub (or) rub (or) rub (or) rub (or) rub (or) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub) (rub) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub) (or rub

Siori, who is lovingly smiling (cheeks) and carefully gathering information behind her, and Akira in the sky somewhere above for the delicacy transmitted from her tongue, continue to talk with the same dessert in her mouth. What we talk about is the scope of the conversation (Han-chu) in Akira's senses. But Siori was asking the questions carefully.

Akira had also asked Siori a lot of things that she somehow thought. That was primarily the insistence of Drancam, the Hunter's detachment party to which Siori and the others belonged.

"Heh, I'm gathering young hunters."

"Yeah. Drancam is promoting the accession of young hunters as a party policy. You seem to be soliciting even beginners who just signed up for the hunter's office."

"Whatever I say, but if you collect amateurs just with guns, why not just die soon?

There is a huge separation between what Ciori calls a beginner and what Akira calls an amateur. Nor does Drancam add a hunter-rank 1 human, like Akira once did. They add beginners who are initially enrolled in Hunter Rank 10 when they enroll.

That's why the two perceptions are subtly eaten apart, but it wasn't enough to drive the big story crazy.

Siori answers Akira's questions.

"Where they are cruel, some inmates are subordinating such beginners to fraudulent methods, replacing shields and decoys. Sounds like a lot of people die really soon, depending on the quality of the prison party they belong to. Drancam carries out various measures such as setting up training periods. For example, we are also lending equipment to increase our strength."

"... equipment. Gear's important."

Akira replied smudged. Akira once headed to the ruins of Kuzsuhara Street with a pistol in one hand. That barbaric courage is a shack of madness for Akira today.

"Something like this, I thought Hunter's party was just some place where he was feeding on the lower end, but there are places like that. It's a little surprising."

"Because it's also profitable enough for the Drancam side in the long run. There just seems to be too much preference and some dissatisfaction from the ancient ginseng hunter. Because the funds to favour young people are deducted from the rewards of the hunter to whom they belong. Even though the ancient ginseng have not benefited from such benefits until now, the cost of equipment for lending has been deducted from the reward. Young hunters naturally enjoy it, so let's have no choice. But it is also true that we have succeeded in making a number of competent young hunters belong. And it is also the executives of those ancient ginseng who are deciding on the policy of the detentionist party in the first place. I guess you can't say that young people are generally bad, ancient ginseng is bad."

Shikarabe and Katsuya figure float behind Akira's brain. They were two very unfriendly looking people, but that doesn't just seem to be an individual conflict.

"Was it Shikarabe and Katsuya? Are those two not close for that reason, either?

"Are you Shikarabe and Katsuya? Master Sikarabe used to act together as a rater for Master Katsuya, and I hear that he was very incompatible. Master Katsuya is not a bad person..."

Siori's expression is slightly distorted by dissatisfaction. The topic moved on to content about Katsuya as it were, and Akira was to be heard by Siori about something close to stupidity.

As far as Siori tells, Katsuya seems to be jumping through and acting as a competent prowess among the young hunters of Drancam. He was willing to ripen the mission by mixing it up with the hunters who had the strength to fight in the underground, and greatly informed the young men led by Katsuya. Among Drancam's youths, it seems they can even make a faction that focuses on Katsuya.

As a hunter with young talent and demonstrated strength as a result, and as a successful example of the current system of Drancam, Katsuya seems to be much anticipated. If that's all, Siori will never look at the rating of the katsuya. The problem lay in its by-products.

Katsuya was greatly admired by the same generation of heterosexuals. He is a boy who has a good face, strength, does not boast of his own strength and sprinkle prestige, and can expect enough money in the future. It was also, to some extent, inevitable.

Who approached me with the intention and got serious. Those who were helped by distress and fell in love. Those who recognize each other's strengths and change from likes to favors. Many girls are trying to lean on the side of the katsuya (buckwheat). Some of the hunters of Katsuya and the same generation of women who belonged to Drankam even had a fierce (sloppy) fight behind them to become the same team as Katsuya.

Rayna initially resented and hostile such katsuya as a non-heterosexual person, but she had become unconscious and pale in love since she recognized her strength. Siori was also aware that Raina's rather forceful addition to Katsuya's team included some reason for doing so.

Talk a little louder as Siori looks bitterly pricked.

"If Katsuya is going to be honest with the lady, I won't be willing to complain. But you don't want to create a specific opponent, you don't explicitly say no to the people who say it, and you increase the number of people every day!? It doesn't mean it's good if you're unconscious!

"Ha, ha, right..."

Akira drinks her after-dinner coffee with an ambiguous answer, the third cup of coffee. I've already finished my dessert. Siori had asked for two extra plates of dessert.

"I do acknowledge Master Katsuya's strength, too. Master Katsuya will surely be accomplished. You would also say you prefer hero colors. But there is a limit! Even if that's possible with your own earnings, if you're willing to build more than a dozen side rooms and build them in Harlem, you just have to go west, exile and become noble or royal! Because that seems normal in the customs of aristocratic royalty and other people in the West! What do you think of Akira!?

Honestly, I don't care. Besides, if we were to act together in a life-threatening situation, we wouldn't have any choice but to get along somewhat. Akira thought so, but it's obvious that Siori's mood gets worse when she answers that frankly.

Akira answers with a little hesitation, wrapping her opinions in oblate to such an extent that it does not contradict her own law to be more honest than she received as a request.

"No, you know, I'm older than color, so I'm a little neglected about that, or I'm a little bothered if they ask me for an opinion... No, I'm not defending katsuya, I'm sure there's a lot going on when I'm running a hunter where it's natural for a lot of things to happen related to life and death..."

"But Master Katsuya even dictated to me!? Besides, on occasions when the lady is next door! This is too... Hmm?, excuse me"

Ciori retrieves and confirms his information terminal. Looks like we got a call.

"I'm sorry to bother you. My colleague contacted me, and I would like to apologize for all the circumstances. How is Akira? If you wish to place an additional order, this will be your last chance…"

"No, I've eaten enough, so I'm out, too. Thank you for a delicious meal."

The amount of food was too much for Akira. The slight gap left in Akira's stomach filled with dessert and coffee. You should avoid the culinary entrance turning into an entrance or exit. Unfortunately, Akira decided to go home.

While Siori was doing her accounting, Akira had the gun she kept returned. Akira decided to forget how much she paid for this meal she heard during accounting because she thought it was a mistake or an illusion.

It's a long day before Akira comes to this store again with her own money. Akira went home to thank Siori again after she left the store.

After breaking up with Akira, Siori takes out the information terminal and contacts her colleagues.

"It's me. I'll be back now, so tell the lady."

"You got it. So, are you okay? Don't you have arms or legs? Your daughter was worried."

A colleague of Siori's caller said something obvious and noisy. Cioli answers with a slight tone of expression.

"You're safe. Kanae, you didn't say anything extra to your daughter, did you?

"I was just chatting to get an idea of what's going on."

"What's the topic?

"I do a lot of things. Talk about your daughter's hunter opening, or a hunter that sounds like your daughter is turning up a fever. Later, we'll talk about it in the basement. Did you even hear about Siori's sister dying? You're meeting him today, aren't you?

Siori speaks with a dew of displeasure.

"... I thought you instructed me to avoid talking in the basement when talking to my lady?

"I think the conversation just came up. Unlike my sister (ah), I am a force officer, so I would have trouble even if she asked me to deal with it meticulously in my life. If you're unhappy, please come back soon."

I'll be right back.

That's all Ciori said and hung up the call.

A woman dressed in maid clothes laughed lightly when she saw an out of call information terminal in one of the apartments inside the walls, a median section of the Kugamayama city. A woman named Kanae, a colleague of Siori's.

The smile on the face of Kanae, an elderly woman, remains somewhere shabby. Except it was like a child who was happy to play a prank.

Squirting (crushing) as Kanae imagines Siori's expression.

"I'm not in the mood."

Kanae is wearing simple maid clothes. Its made-up clothing is at first glance ordinary, but it is made of a fabric woven from reinforced fiber with excellent impact resistance to bulletproof blades, which is no different in performance from the protective clothing worn by the hunters. In an emergency, shield yourself from enemy attacks. What looks like black tights are fortified clothes worn by Kanae under made-up clothes.

Kanae was on assignment as Rayna's escort. It's the same as Siori in the sense of Raina's escort, but there's a clear difference from Siori, who also takes care of Raina as a maid. Kanae's skill as a maid of honor is low and Kanae would not otherwise be dispatched. Kanae is pure combat personnel. Kanae's clothing is a consideration not to intimidate people living in the city's median compartment and an employer's hobby.

Once Kanae has the information terminal, she heads to the room where Raina is. Because of the fatigue of the battle with Akira, Siori was transported to the hospital (for), Raina was closed for hunter operations until Siori's health recovered. Kanae speaks to Raina, who is studying with one hand of material in her living room.

"My lady. She's going back now."

"Sister (huh)? Oh, you mean Siori. Uh, you're safe, right?

"It looks like there are no injuries. He said he'd be back soon. I'll be fine."

"Good. Totally, I was worried that Kanae would say something weird. Don't threaten me."

Rayna gave Kanae a slight blame after safely saying so.

Kanae answers softly.

"When people die, they die. Especially if you're running a hunter. If you like it, you need to be more prepared than you are on the outside of the fence.

Raina answers her dissatisfaction.

"... but that's true"

Maybe Siori won't come back alive. Yes, it was Kanae who told Raina and made her anxious. After Kanae's assignment, Siori had gone out without even telling Raina where she was going. It was also Raina who made Kanae check Siori's cheapness.

As a result of confirmation, nothing seemed to have happened, Raina thought the story of Kanae was like a joke or a bitter complaint.

In fact, Siori was ready to meet with Akira after having completed his succession and various instructions in the event of his death, fully understanding the need.

Reading its insides from Rayna's expression, Kanae thinks, taking care not to put his own insides on his face.

(… If you cannot contact your sister (ah) for 24 hours, your sister (ah) has instructed you to act on the premise of death. The additional personnel dispatch should also be in place in the event of your sister's death. Your sister's death is quite predictable, but your daughter is still sweet about the crisis.)

Rayna is very spoiled. That's how Kanae recognizes it. I would never be dissatisfied with that. To put it badly, because I'm getting food for my life by wearing Raina's butt plush. And if Raina sends him again, there will be more situations that Kanae prefers.

Kanae has the temperament of a combat fanatic, and Kanae is aware of it. I don't need to be offended by an employer who provides me with adequate compensation and a decent battlefield.

It's Siori's job to educate Raina to avoid unnecessary hazards. It wasn't in Kanae's mind to let Raina's perception of the crisis change.

Then Siori returned. Siori explained many things, including why she went out to Raina after changing to the same maid clothes as Kanae.

I've cleared up my concerns about Akira, but if Raina doesn't understand the situation, it could turn out to be Ami Nogiki. Cioli explained with care.

After hearing the explanation from Siori, Raina asks Siori to confirm.

"... eh, so Akira's not mad, right?

"I have nothing to think about. That's the thing. That will be Akira's stance. As a precaution, Lady Raina should not thank or apologize to Lady Akira for facts that do not exist. That could be a factor in steaming things back, and could even be judged as harassment of Master Akira, who is entering into secrecy with the city. Please be careful."

As for Raina, it was unfortunate that she couldn't say thank you or apologize for having saved Raina and Siori's life after pulling her legs a lot because of her own failure. But if that's what you want to do to annoy Akira, it's different.

While I'm sorry, Raina answers firmly.

"... yes. Okay."

Siori smiles at Raina's insides.

"I have finished thanking and apologizing to Master Akira. Looks like Akira enjoyed her meal, too. So the lady doesn't have to worry about it any more."

Kanae grins and pinches her mouth.

"If you don't like how I almost got you killed, can I just sneak up on you?

Raina and Siori turned the gaze of blame to Kanae. Kanae jokes and pretends.

"Whoa, is that awesome? So, that's what you two are saying, and this is a good intent if you can get rid of this pan? It's not like he's a saint prince, and he doesn't have shards, does it? Oh, I'd apologize if I wasn't."

Raina and Siori answer with the gaze of blame pointed at Kanae.

"Stop."

"Stop."

Neither Raina nor Siori have anything at all to think about Akira. Even though Akira has no in-laws or obligations to help Rayna, it's true that she wanted Rayna dead. But the cause was in Raina, and as a result, Akira saved her life. Neither Raina nor Siori are so shameless as to hit Akira with the pan.

Kanae apologizes for feeling light.

"I'm kidding. I was just kidding. I'm sorry."

Kanae had a strong interest in Akira's prowess that she had crossed the five-fifths with Siori using the trump card. Kanae wanted to give Akira a little bit of a shot by pretending she didn't know anything about the details and misunderstood only a few of the circumstances. But when I saw the attitude of the two of them, I gave up.

(The young lady also has a horn, and her sister (ah) who is putting her into the young lady has this attitude. Is Akira that bad? Hmmm. I'm curious)

Kanae has no loyalty to her employers or escorts like Siori. Kanae is also grateful, but that presupposes the right compensation and a comfortable working environment. In some cases, Kanae may die sheltering Raina. But it's because of Kanae's attitude toward her work, not because of her loyalty to Raina.

Kanae is also well aware of Siori's loyalty to Raina. That's why it makes a lot of sense for Shiori not to put shards on the table against the target of his loyalty. Akira turned out to help Raina. Is Akira so wary that the gratitude exceeds the pan or even hesitates to put the pan on the table?

Expecting it to be the latter, Kanae laughed thinly.

She laughs in a good mood as Akira remembers her meal at the restaurant as she takes a bath at home. Alpha bathes with Akira as usual. The nudity of a beautiful woman who may call herself a goddess is present right on Akira's side (by her side), but Akira was busy thinking back about the flavour of cooking when she was older than color and showed no more interest in the alpha nudity than usual.

"It was really delicious. I want to go again. You've got more reason to make money."

'It's good to have more fun living, but it's not possible to go over there again with Akira's money now, is it?

"... right. I don't think there was a price on the menu right now. I'm not gonna be able to make enough money to pay for that meal at all."

Hunter operations, such as ammunition, injury (injury) treatment, and living expenses, are expensive operations. It's hard to go to that store to eat at your own expense from Akira's current earnings. Payment itself is not impossible, but Akira's mortality rate rises due to various costs being cut for it. Akira's diet will continue to be as cheap frozen food days as ever until she can afford enough to go at her own expense.

"Speaking of which, there was a cyborg in that store, but did you end up eating that dish? What happens to the food you eat if you get eaten?

"If an organic converter is a body with a built-in organic converter, it breaks down and becomes energy or a material for biological components. If it doesn't work like that, you can take it out later."

"What about after you take it out?

"You must throw it away."

"Are you eating purely for entertainment purposes? Not the one with the money."

Akira had an indescribable look on her face. If you don't eat, you'll starve to death. As for Akira, who lived such a life in Slam Street, it's an act that even remembers how creepy she is. But it is also important to the orthodox. There is sufficient demand for cyborg food and so on to be developed, and it is indispensable for the spiritual stability of the orthodox.

'Cause just because you turned it into a prosthetic body doesn't make your appetite disappear. In exchange for physical abilities that exceed the distance, there are some parts of the body that you can't help but bear a lot of the costs of not having any problems with being born. Although there are high-performance, high-performance prosthetics that have no such price at all, the price will be amazing. Only a handful of people can buy that, like employees of big corporations, some millionaire, hunters who are making rough money on the eastern front. "

"... that sounds expensive. Selling mountains of relics from the old world is going to be difficult. Speaking of which, is that artifact raider a prosthetic body? It's a lot of money I wanted to get until I turned the city against my enemies. Maybe he was willing to pay for the purchase of such a luxury body."

Akira thought of Yazima and Nelia, the artifact raiders. Akira didn't think it was right for her to be hostile to the city, even though she'd been trying to get a lot of money. But suppose they had to become orthodox in accidents and monster raids, and they were living their lives with bodies that normally couldn't even eat. Suppose you were dreaming of getting a fancy prosthetic body that could eat and savoring the best food in a fancy restaurant. It was a convincing enough motive for Akira after learning about that gastronomic bliss.

That night, Akira had a dream. In her dreams Akira was fighting Nelia.

Akira continues to shun Nelia's slaughter, which holds a blade in both hands, in death and madness. It should be very difficult to move in buildings scattered with debris, but both Akira and Nelia keep moving without worrying about it.

I don't see any threads of counterattack or anything like that before Nelia's onslaught. Akira has a hard time extending her life against someone with a clear difference in strength. Akira has nothing in her hands. Nelia is not the kind of opponent Akira can win with her bare hands. Neither Akira's kick nor his fist would cause that blow to damage Nelia's prosthetic body, but instead would cut off his stretched hands and feet to Nelia.

Akira asks Alpha in panic.

"What about the gun!? What about the CWH objective assault gun!? You wouldn't win without that!?

"CWH Object Assault Gun is gone, right? I have to buy a new one at Sizka's."

"It was!

A lot of situations don't fit, but Akira in her dreams never realizes it.

"You went to Mr. Sizka's shop before this!? Why didn't you buy it!?

'Cause it's too heavy to be equipped without fortified clothing. You lost your fortified clothes, didn't you?

"It was!...... hmm?

Akira confirms her clothes with a surprising face. That's not fortified clothing, it's not even protective clothing. It was just sturdy clothes I had prepared for Kibayashi.

The moment he recognized it, Akira's movements slowed sharply. Because just clothing does not improve physical ability or receive support from the operation of Alpha reinforced clothing.

Akira, who has rapidly lost her physical abilities, is approached by a blade rolled out by Nelia. Akira's vision shows Nelia's blade slowly approaching Akira's neck.

(Oh, dead)

Akira thought so somewhere else. Blade flies Akira's neck.

(I wanted to eat that dish again...)

Akira thought that in her vanishing consciousness as she looked down at her own body without a neck rolling on the floor.

So Akira woke up. It's dark in the room and it's not yet time for the sun to rise. Wake up and reach for your neck to see how you feel. I made sure my neck was tightly connected, and I noticed that it was a dream.

"... a dream"

Alpha looks at Akira with a worrying look on her face.

"Are you okay?"

"Oh. I just had a weird dream. It's nothing."

Akira says that and keeps looking at Alpha.

Akira, who engaged Nelia, survived in reality. But Akira in the dream of losing Alpha's support has died lightly.

There is no great difference between Akira in my dreams and Akira now. If we find ourselves in a similar situation in real life, we will die just like we dreamed.

(That dream was my natural strength, wasn't it?)

Akira has managed to survive with the good fortune of meeting Alpha and his blessing. How long will that good fortune last? Akira doesn't know.

Talk to Akira, who keeps watching Alpha silently, so that Alpha can laugh and laugh.

"What's wrong? Are you in love with my beauty now?

Akira asks with a slightly more serious look.

"... how long is Alpha going to take care of me?

Alpha asks back in wonder.

'I'm going to support you until I finish my request with Akira. What's the sudden matter?

"No, I'm not a kid like me. I thought if I put my hands together with a more awesome hunter, Alpha's purpose would be over soon. Alpha's working with me because I'm an old realm connector, right? Is there no hunter for the old realm connector other than me? Why don't you just look around? No, even if you're not an old realm connector, why don't you just ask me to replace Alpha?

Alpha stares at Akira. Akira is staring back at Alpha.

Alpha tells Akira in a serious tone after she continues to look (bulky) at Akira's expression waiting for a reply.

'I'm not going to ask you deeply or let you crack my mouth about what Akira might think and lose my support. But let me get this straight. My support is in advance of the reward for the request I made to Akira. Until Akira completes my request, I'm going to hang out with Akira, and I'm going to let her hang out.'

"... well. Right."

"Yes, I am."

Akira has an obligation to complete the request with the support of Alpha. It would be better if Alpha switched from Akira to another hunter because of Alpha. Even if Akira decides so, even if it were true, Alpha wouldn't allow it. That's what Alpha says in the dark.

Akira, who had benefited beyond herself from Alpha and even felt some backwardness, felt a little more comfortable hearing Alpha's response. Akira was somewhat aware that Alpha's remarks would make Akira feel better.

Akira laughs and talks.

"Okay. Good night."

Alpha also laughs and answers.

'Rest. Now have a good dream.'

"Maybe I'll be fine."

Akira lies in bed again. In no time Akira fell asleep again.

Dreaming the same dream again doesn't have the same result. Akira is somehow, but I was so sure.
