Rebuild World

When the search for the ruins was resumed, Akira and the others reached a different place than before. The plants that were breeding so much were suddenly interrupted. The walls and floors were exposed with clean (clean) conditions so that they were also invisible compartments there.

Togami gives the whole thing instructions to stop by hand.

"Raina. Is there anything displayed on the augmented reality side?

"No entry except for those involved......? I don't see any signs or anything like that that I've ever seen in augmented reality. Maybe you can't see it if it's a general reception setting."

"Can't you find a setting for your employees?

"You can do it, but maybe not. Even if I could, I think it would take a while."

"... if there's a business storage room or something like that, I guess it's up ahead. I think it's close to its destination. Let's go."

Akira and the others advance to the back with increased vigilance. The sight of a passage that does not make you feel deteriorated at all due to the passage of time is, in a sense, the appearance of a familiar ruin.

If this is due to site cleaning and restoration functions, it is possible that security devices and other functions are operating correctly. The security machines in that hand are mostly more powerful and troublesome than naturally bred monsters. Even hunters wearing fortified clothing are often fatally injured, even if it is a tranquil capture behavior in the senses of the old world.

As Akira and the others carefully proceeded down the aisle, they discovered another hunter near the entrance and exit of the room visible at the end of the aisle. The opponents also showed strong vigilance when they noticed Akira and the others.

"Stop there! If we get any closer, we'll see that we're willing to engage! Where are you people! If you're involved in the Yuzmo Industry, present your ID!

Answer as Togami shows that there is no will.

"We're hunters belonging to Drancam! I just stumbled here on my way to explore the ruins!

Hunter starts to get in touch with his buddies as he loosens his guard a little. Then another hunter appeared from the room to check the situation. It's Crossawa, who leads these hunters.

Klosawa shows a mild surprise when he looks at Togami.

"He..."

"He says he came by accident at a hunter in Drancam. What are we gonna do, get rid of it?

"No, you don't have to do that. There is no need to rub (or rub) drancum in vain. I'll talk to you so you don't do anything unnecessary.... you're half lying that you came by accident."

"I mean, those guys, too. Okay. I'll take care of it."

"Oh."

Kurosawa was listening to Togami in the booze seat from Shikarabe. I was impressed by the fact that I was quite amused to talk about it for the young hater Sikarabe.

We met in a strange place. With that in mind, Kurosawa invited Akira and the others into the room.

In the room, near the entrance and exit, Kurosawa and Akira meet each other.

"It's crossawa. I'm the leader of this team."

"It's togami. I'm the leader here."

"Right. Then why don't we talk to the leaders? It's troublesome to get noisy in the hallway, so I let him in once, but I want him out of the room as soon as I've talked to him and far enough away. And I want you to stay away from this area after that." to avoid unnecessary rubbing. "

The look on Togami's face seems slightly dissatisfied.

"We're here to collect artifacts, too. I know you're out of the room, but I'm not restricted to where the artifacts are collected after that."

"Yes."

"What?

The face of Togami, who was just dissatisfied, turns into something containing hostile intentions, whether passive or not. Togami can't easily pull off as their leader either. Strengthen the gaze toward the crossawa so that it is visible.

But still, Klosawa keeps his room flat.

"You guys are here looking for an old world-made automatic doll, aren't you? I don't know if that source is the same as us, but it would have been a shame if it was the same. We've secured the vault. Behind this room."

"What!?

Togami's dissatisfaction and hostility blew up with that explanation. Raina also has a surprise look on her face.

"Ho, is that true!?

"Oh. There were four automatic dolls left in the storage case in the back room. I just looked lightly over the case and checked the contents, but the storage condition seemed good as well. I honestly thought it was eyebrow saliva though I got the info, so it was a big win."

"Hey, not four..."

Rayna was drooled again. It was deeper than earlier. Klosawa smiles bitterly when he says he knows how he feels.

"We are in the process of securing a venue until the arrival of a specialist arranged by Yuzmo Industry. When other hunters are around, they can attract monsters. And the forehead of the artifact. There could also be a misconception that we are simply scratching (or grabbing) our artifacts from the side. That's the only reason other team hunters are nearby. So I want you to stay away enough. That's why. I hope you understand."

Klosawa speaks with that light smile, then sharpens his gaze and turns to Togami.

"... if you wander around the neighborhood knowing that, it means you're intentionally in our way. After all the evil we've done, we're going to do the right thing."

I also forget that Togami and Raina were under pressure due to a slight threat from Kurosawa. Shiori and Kanae move somewhat to a position that protects Raina. There was no change in Akira.

Klosawa laughs lightly to get back on track.

"Well, what, we're not going to rub it with Drancum either. I'm guessing Drancam is also looking to be the city's favorite behavioral hunter, right? Let's stop the imitations that create the possibility of hunters killing each other over artifacts. So, what do you say? I'd like to make it easier if possible..."

Besides not originally going to argue, if they even brought it up to Drancam's policy, Togami also had to pull back gently.

"... ok. But I want to discuss the course of action after this with my team. What are we talking about in the hallway, and let me stay a little longer?"

"It would be good. Only ten minutes. I don't care if they use this place as a resting place. Well, in the meantime, if there's anything you want to ask me, just ask me. If you can answer me, I'll answer you."

Kurosawa left Akira and the others behind.

He exhaled loudly as Togami exhaled what had hoisted inside him. I said I wanted to stay in the room for a while to decide on the course of action after this, but most of the purpose is to buy time to recover from my second disappointment. The others know that, so the discussion did not begin, only silence was flowing.

Around spending about five minutes consuming precious time, I gently shake my face to shake off the disappointment that Raina came out of her face. And deliberately tighten your expression a little like you've been relieved.

"... well, I knew there was a chance of this, too. Let's switch our minds. Togami. What are we going to do?

Though a little surprised to think that Togami had recovered unexpectedly quickly, he cautioned against putting it on his face.

"Right. Give up the automatic doll and switch to normal site exploration. In anticipation that the location of the source is not here or (one) is still elsewhere, move the focus of the search away from here to continue the automatic doll search. If the automatic doll is unavailable, I will return after deciding that it is not appropriate to explore this site any further. In large part, these three choices. If you want to continue exploring the ruins or retreat, you have two choices. To be honest, I'm not sure what to do. What do you think?"

Thogami thought it was dangerous to continue the site search with the team's motivation waning, and he asked everyone to do so with the intention of ascertaining that motivation.

Siori answers in advance with the flow guidance.

"Then let me put my vote in the retreat. It is important, but limited, to respond ad hoc to unexpected events. Poor untraining can also lead to a diffusion of consciousness and a loss of motivation. We will proceed with the retreat to re-compartmentalize the site, including preparing it for exploration."

I laugh lightly when I realize that Kanae tried to change the course of the venue from consultation to majority voting on Siori's intentions.

"Then I shall put my vote in the continuation. I'm still a little indigested as a combat personnel. Doesn't matter if you look for automated dolls until you're full or if you look for other artifacts without being constrained."

Siori sent a slightly more rugged gaze to Kanae, who returned it with his gaze that he had taken the majority vote.

"I don't care about any of it. If my abstention will divide the votes into equal numbers, add me to Togami's votes. He's basically accompanied by a promise to follow the leader's instructions."

"... I'm just like Akira. Togami is the leader today. I'll take care of it."

Akira was a passivity of an outsider feeling, and Rayna threw her judgment at Togami with some sweetness she couldn't decide for herself.

Togami bothers me. At the discretion of Akira and Raina, the dispersion of responsibility was sealed for certain escapes: majority voting, and for choosing the wrong choice. We must decide by the time limit as leaders. There is only a few moments left to make a decision.

Some of the other hunters in the same room pointed a slightly surprising and intriguing gaze at Akira and the others.

"... a maid. I have a maid. They're Drancam hunters, aren't they? Was it true that Drancam hired a maid for his hunter?

"No, you would simply be a hunter wearing reinforced clothes that look like made-up clothes or something. It's a remodel based on what we found in the ruins. We're talking about a lot of old world-made garments that are rugged in vain."

"Mm-hmm. But, look, the atmosphere is amazing, right? Don't you feel like it's real? Just one."

"Assuming you were a real maid, do you think you'd wear maid clothes all the way inside the ruins? I wouldn't wear it. No, I don't know much about real maids either, so I can't say for sure."

"If you say so. Sure you do."

"Apparently there are companies that send maids with combat training to deal with VIP protection within the fence as well. As for the atmosphere, I can think of a lot of things like using equipment flowing from it or having a background working there. But if you're diverting gear, if you become a hunter after you quit, I don't think it's real."

Sends a slightly unexpected gaze to a fellow listening to a little rap.

"... you're pretty familiar with it while you say you don't know it well?

"No, well, that's good. Oh yeah, speaking of Drancam, we've been talking about the kids there being very active in the ruins of Kuzsuhara Street lately..."

The fellow man changed the subject to misdemonize (sesame seeds) after stiffening his expression a little.

The majority of them only learned a degree of interest in seeing Siori and Kanae in maid clothes to make them a seed for chatter, but only one, had a strong gaze on Siori. A hunter named Rodin.

Siori's appearance on Raina's side (by her side) gave Rodin a strong emotion. Young, strong, beautiful. Firm loyalty and faith from Rin's standing, unshakeable loyalty and charity from a calm expression, and a clear sense of subordination and functional beauty from the maid's clothes. The sight contained everything that strongly attracted Rodin.

Swirling emotions stimulate Rodin's greed. Rodin couldn't contain the greed and went to Crosava with a slightly more serious look to ask for a solution to the greed.

Klosawa lightly dropped Rodin's favor.

"No."

Don't say that, please.

"No. We will do our utmost to secure the venue, and we will do our utmost to explore further. That's what I should have explained. If you allocate personnel to exploration, the defense here will be neglected for that matter. Those guys were good listeners, but not necessarily others. First of all, if we discover any more automatic puppets, we don't have the personnel to break them into your defense."

"Half there at a time..."

"The joke proposal to allocate half the personnel at a time is rejected. It just gets both thin and ruins both. I'm pretty sure there's more information out there on this ruin automated doll than those guys have come. Besides, at the time they tell someone that they've been moved ahead, it changes from a possible, somewhat sweet accuracy to a high accuracy that they did exist. At that point, the one that switches the means of obtaining automatic dolls to capture, not collect artifacts, also comes out. The battle power needed to make the fools imitate the fools has risen considerably. You can't imitate it in a way that disperses your power."

"... you're the one who told them we found the automatic doll."

"At a time when we were desperate to secure the spot, we'd have been taken for granted."

Rodin tried many other things, but Crosava argued accurately against all of them.

"Come on. I'll be persistent. No."

Clothawa intimidates me more (to) end the conversation. So Rodin wandered and shut his mouth, which he had been vomiting his thoughts.

Kurosawa enters Rodin.

"There are four old world-made automatic dolls. That's good enough, isn't it? Stop it. Excessive greed will destroy you. Pull time is important. First of all, we haven't even finalized this big achievement yet. Hand over the place to the specialists we called, transport the automated dolls to the city, sell them out, and gradually become gold. I'm still on my way. I will not lose my mind until I have confirmed this great achievement and grabbed (one) a lot of money. Focus on the finalization. You got that?

"... then it won't be mine."

Rodin's whining (crushing) was so small that Crosava could not hear him at all. But only that Rodin's dissatisfaction had not disappeared. Clothawa exhales.

Crosava leads the hunter team on this occasion, but not technically the team's personnel. I'm hired by this hunter team to lead this operation.

Grasp the response of a slightly more difficult site. Increase safety in dangerous operations. Quite a few hunter teams employ Crosava as a temporary conductor for such reasons. Clothawa's command, which is sometimes cowardly, greatly improves the survival rate of troops. Treasure it if you want to put more emphasis on safety than profit, or if you go behind the ruins with vague information.

And when I'm commanding a unit as a hired captain, I also get more opportunities to run hunter operations with people who really don't obey command. Klosawa decided the same was true this time because of Rodin's attitude and switched to what to do in that case.

"Well, I'm also a hired captain. If you say you can't follow my lead, do as I say. But that's what happened outside my command, no matter what. Even if there are casualties, we will not accept a reduction in remuneration for them. Include that and talk to the rest of us."

When Klosawa took his gaze off Rodin just to say that the story was over, Rodin went back with a rugged look.

(... even the people who gave me expensive money (on purpose) try to disobey my instructions with greed. The magic of relics always confuses people. I have to be careful.)

Crosava laughs lightly. And when I switched my mind, I began to modify the operation in my head, assuming Rodin was not returned.

Akira and the others were moving through the ruins towards the exit. However, it was not retreating in a straight line, but sandwiching a stopover for collecting artifacts along the way. It is an action that follows Togami's decision to retreat slowly and sparingly while earning some results.

After returning to where the plants grew, Raina was looking at information on augmented reality in the ruins as well as going to set the course. It is difficult to visually find a small room, etc. that is likely to contain artifacts in a site covered in green on one side. Rayna relied on me there.

He was proceeding slowly in his footsteps, searching for a place where there might be artifacts, without taking the directions to the exit significantly off. And in the room Rayna chose for most of the mountain exploration, Akira and the others left Siori and Kanae on alert and defensive, and began to split up and look for artifacts.

Akira discovered a plant-covered shelf. When the physical ability of the fortified clothing exposed the inside by pulling and chopping the scissors, a barrel shaped object was piled in. I took one of those and took a closer look and found something solid in the transparent cylinder. But Akira has no idea who she is.

"What is this? Alpha. You know what this is?

"It's old world-made clothing."

"Clothes? Huh? This is it? '

Rayna noticed Akira leaning her neck slightly toward the unexpected answer.

"Akira. Did you find anything?

"Oh. Kind of. Raina. You know what this is?

Take a closer look at the cylindrical artifact Rayna received from Akira. The expression was then slightly stiffened and the cheeks dyed slightly red.

"Kew, I think it's old world-made clothing or something. Maybe, but it's compressed inside."

"Really? Awesome. Don't get it. How did you discern that?

"Or the content is displayed in augmented reality. It doesn't look like Akira, but it does to me."

"Heh. What kind of clothes are they?

Akira just asked so lightly, but that made Raina slightly hardened. And answer as if to misdemonize.

"... old-world-style... maybe, huh?

"That's made in the old world, so I guess so. But there are definitely some designs that are similar to the clothes of today, and that, or the so-called old-world style."

"Oh, yeah, yeah. That's right."

"Then you're going to sell it high. Let's take it home."

When Akira starts stuffing the artifacts in the rucksack, Togami comes too.

"Akira. Did you find anything?

"I found garments made in the old world."

Togami also gets a little surprised when he takes the cylindrical artifact.

"... this is it?

"Oh. Rayna saw and discerned what was displayed in augmented reality.... that, but is it all?

I offered Rayna the artifact that Akira had in her hand. Togami offers Rayna the same.

When Rayna received it, she checked the contents and subtly stiffened her expression to misdemonize her embarrassment (sesame seeds).

"... there's a mix of different things."

"Right. What was that?

"... accessories, appliances, toys."

Akira wonders at Rayna's expression and deduces for herself.

"Was that look a mix of things that weren't going to sell very high? Then I'll give it all to Rayna once, so save me something that looks cheap."

After Rayna shows a slightly troubled face, she turns it into a serious face like she put her intentions into it.

"No, let's take it all back. I'm not that confident in the appraisal of relics either. If you find a more expensive artifact later and this gets in the way, you just have to throw it away then. Yeah. Because you're a hunter. That's the kind of decision I need to make. Isn't that right?

Togami snorted hard.

"Sure. All right. Let's all take it."

"... me too? Yeah, that's right. Let's carry it."

We start stuffing the artifacts together in a manner that Rayna has reopened somewhere. Akira and the others were wondering how it was going.

Unlike Akira and the others, Rayna is able to see the contents of the artifact. There was also a slightly exciting mix of things there with Raina.

(I must be a hunter, right? I'm not in a position to choose (eh) and prefer the contents of the found artifacts to the selling price, and I can't be a earned hunter if I care about that. You're right about that.... Yes! It is! You should be glad you found something expensive!

While Raina said so herself, she continued to work in a bit of a hurry to finish the work (to) before Akira and the others asked her extra questions.

(... it's a coincidence that I chose this place, but I wonder if that's what this place was like)

The store was covered with plants, the deterioration of walls and the like was harsh (dull), the display information of augmented reality was harsh (dull) and fragmented, and the shadow had completely disappeared when the store was open.

Telling Akira and the others that doesn't make the evil elements disappear. That's all Raina knew.

Raina continued her work as she tried her best to pretend to be calm. No one was fortunate enough to notice the inner agitation.
