Nishino replied.

The e-mail indicated the meeting place and time.

I should have headed straight there if I were...

"Let's take a break here."

That said, I point to the nearby Miscellaneous Building.

It's a cluttered building with no tenants in it since before the world changed.

There's no sign of a monster, and we'll rest here for a while.

As far as I'm concerned, I still have plenty of room.

"Wh-wh-wh-wh-wh-wh-wh-wh-wh-wh-wh-wh-wh-wh-wh..."

It is Mr. Ichinose who is raising his voice that is dying.

His face is bright blue, and he's about to throw up.

Yeah, I knew.

As much as this happens if I move without carrying it.

Though he has' physical enhancement 'skills, Mr. Ichinose's status is far lower than mine or Rokka's.

We knew this would happen if we moved at our pace.

But...

"Oh, I can't believe you're such a disgrace... you can't show Richie how pathetic you are."

With that said, Mr. Itinose categorically rejects my penis.

I was supposed to walk around normally.

This is the result.

"So, it's okay, Nat? You gonna throw up? Shall I rub your back?

"Yes, big length fu... hiuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu... no problem..."

Through the will, on the contrary, we are showing pitiful results.

This is Mr. Itinose quality. I'm so sorry to hear that.

... shouldn't I have normally carried this?

But, Ichinoseh, I'd like to look oddly good in front of Rokka...

If that's what you think, Mr. Itinose stopped by me.

(... excuse me, next time I'll normally ask you for a lobster...... ugh)

(... Yes, yes, I understand)

He stopped being mean.

Yeah, I'm honest with you.

Enter the Miscellaneous Building.

Find the right room and secure a rest space.

"You'll be fine here. Mr. Ichinose, take a rest."

"Yes... sorry..."

Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-W

Seems a lot easier than earlier.

As soon as I entered the room.

Is this still the effect of the profession 'pull cage'?

I hadn't noticed when I was traveling outside because I was always a pussy or a motorcycle, but wouldn't 'pull cages' impose penalties for outside activities, or travel?

Anyway, it's "Pull Cage."

Mr. Itinose has the skill 'physical enhancement' so he doesn't seem particularly problematic for the minute he normally travels, but as soon as he runs or travels long distances, he runs out.

I tread lightly on Shadow.

"Momo, come out"

"Wow."

Coming out of the shadows, Momo replies.

Moffmoff then. Pfft.

"I'm going to explore this building. While you're at it, stay with us."

"Wow."

It would be almost safer in the building than there is' perception inhibition ', just in case.

If you need anything, Momo will let you know.

"Explore...? But there's nothing in Mr. Kudo's" Sovereignty. "

"Just in case. Just in case. And..."

I approach Mr. Ichinose and slap him gently in the ear.

(Around the roof, it's out of my skill range. If there's anything you want to talk to her about, I think it's just the right time, right?

(Huh...!

In the words, Mr. Ichinose trembles on his shoulders.

"Nat, what did you do?

"Hey, it's nothing"

Me staring at Mr. Ichinoseh Niyaniya.

I think I look the most disgusting right now.

"Well, then, please rest."

(There will be stories to pile up, and please take your time around here)

"Oh... thank you, thank you... ma, su..."

Mr. Itinose seems to have understood my voice.

Waving flirtatiously, I leave the room.

"Well, what happens..."

That's how I squealed, and I headed to the roof.

Kazuto leaves, and two people are left in the room, Ichinose and Roppo.

Momo sits near the window, staring at the two of them and not moving.

"You know, he's a great guy, you know."

It was Roppo who opened his mouth first.

See Ichinose as he sits in his office chair and circles around.

"Awesome... what?

"No, a lot. The same goes for levels and skills, and I'm going to lightly defeat the struggling monsters. Oh, but is that Natsu with you?"

"Huh?"

"Because when you're fighting a monster, you're like someone else. It felt like the light in my eyes had disappeared, and the line was like," I'm a bullet. "

"Sorry, I don't really understand the analogy...?

"Um? Didn't Nat read Lanobe or something?

"I don't really have a novel...... I'd read a comic book though"

"Oh, my God."

"Yeah."

…………

…………

That's where the conversation breaks off.

I can't keep talking.

Ichinose is in a hurry.

That's crazy.

If it's true, I have a lot more to talk about, but I can't get the word out.

Best friend I've seen again in a year.

It also remained different from each other - in fact, Ichinose knew beforehand about the causes of the Roppo and bullying in "Some Circumstances" - and even after we reunited, we didn't have a chance to talk slowly in battle with the monsters or on the move.

(Ugh, what do I do...... Mr. Kazt dined for me because of this...)

No, wasn't this situation originally a high hurdle for me with a communal disorder in the first place? 'Cause we're gonna talk face-to-face, right? You decided to be nervous. My stomach is tight and sore, and my nausea is coming in. No, bear with yourself. Are you willing to expose yourself to ugliness, not only in front of Mr. Kazt, but also in front of your best friend? No, but then what are we gonna do? Oh, right,' Email '. Why don't we just talk in' Email '? That way the words are slurred... no, there is no such thing as being in front of you. Stupid or I am. "Conversation" … Are you not skilled in "Conversation"?

It feels like, when a little Ichinose is teary-eyed and oronic in her brain,

"... hey, knucklehead, I just want to ask you one thing."

If you look, Rokka looked at herself with a serious look.

"... what?

Feeling stuck with the atmosphere, Ichinose corrects his posture.

"Natsuya, after this... after rendezvous with Nissy and the others, what are you going to do?

"How...?

"Are you going to act together?

……

To that inquiry, Ichinose shuts up in a different way than earlier.

That's what she's been thinking.

Right now, Rokkawa is with Ichinose and the others because of the name of searching for her people and rendezvous.

So, what happens after it's fulfilled?

You're gonna keep acting together?

(Probably not... right)

Ichinose shakes his head in his heart.

Kazuto and his style of combat are solo specific, not mass combat.

Until we partied with each other, that's how we've acted, so I can't help but say.

Besides, most importantly, the two of us have too many secrets we want to keep from others.

Item boxes, dogs using skills, and pseudo-slimes.

You'll want the food in the item box as much as you can get your hands out of your throat if someone else finds out, and a lot of people won't be able to accept it because it's 'no different than a monster, it's dangerous' to Momo or Aka.

And most importantly, I don't like being in "and many others" either.

It's not that I don't like people, but I don't like that unique air in a group.

When the numbers increase, that's all people feel strong about.

There will also be people out there who force them to act unwillingly.

You have skills, so you're strong.

Then it's in the service of 'everyone' and 'the collective' forces it.

We're in a weaker position.

That's what Kazuto was once concerned about.

"... well. I knew we wouldn't act together."

And did you take that silence for a yes, Rokka will have a sad look on her face?

"Uh, no, Rich... the..."

"Fine, fine, I know. I mean, Natsu's communally handicapped, even if he rendezvous with the Nissys, he'll never float."

Ichinose is a little annoyed by the six flowers that smile.

"Oh, that's not true! Even I..."

"Me too?

"I think that if you work hard, you can get rid of people... normally... no."

"For that matter, the words have been butt shrinking for a long time. - Miss?

"Mmm."

To Puku and the swelling Ichinose, Roppo laughed more and more loudly.

"It's terrible, Richie."

"Haha, I'm sorry. 'Cause Natsu's reactions are so funny."

A little laugh, and,

"But yeah, completion, completion. I mean, Natsuzu is good with you."

"Huh... why, is that what we're talking about?

Ichinose's face turns slightly red.

"'Cause that's what it says on Nat's face."

"Huh?"

Reflectively, Ichinose rubs his face in pieces.

"It's too easy to understand."

"Become...!?"

Finally, I realized that Ichinose had been teased.

"Haha...... well, well. That nappy.... Oh, I envy you. I can't believe I'm melting nuts in just a few days."

"No, to mellow... nothing. Not like that."

"Well, then."

Roppo can cover his words so as to block the words of Ichinose.

The smile earlier becomes a serious expression like a lie.

And he looked straight at Ichinose, and then he held his hand tightly,

"- I'm staying the same... is there any way I can get you to be one of the knuckleheads forever?

"Huh...?

Round your eyes, Ichinose sees the face of Roppo.

That's what she's serious about, not a joke, she quickly realized.

"- Well, what are you two talking about by now..."

I whine as I leave my back on the rooftop fence.

I can't hear you two talking.

But to tell the truth, even at this distance, you can listen to the conversation.

Unique Skill 'Vocational Enhancement'.

Strengthen your skills with this and you can listen to conversations between two people downstairs, even at this distance.

But I didn't dare.

Because that is a clear betrayal of Mr. Ichinose.

Though we're having a party...... no, we're having a party, so we have to take care of those rules.

Sometimes you don't want to talk to each other or be asked.

If you step over that, no one will be trusted, and no one will.

That's the same thing for Momo and Aka.

It's ironic that rules matter even though it's an disorderly world.

(As a prediction, I think we're talking about the future...)

After we rendezvous with you Nishino, do we act together, or do we break up?

Maybe, but Rokuka is afraid of that.

On my way here, I've seen Mr. Ichinose again and again.

"Maybe you're asking me to come to my group..."

And if Mr. Itinose accepts that...

"That's when... I guess that's when"

Whatever conclusions Mr. Itinose may have drawn, I shall respect them.

As a result, even if we were to break up the party,

A little... No, I miss you a lot, but when it comes to having no choice, I can't help it.

"... hmm?

Two, as I looked around over the fence, I saw an integral monster.

"You're the first monster I've ever seen."

It's a whole zombie dressed in gear that reminds me of Roman warriors.

His face hides in a full-face helmet, his exposed skin rots red and black, and he has a huge shield and sword in his hand.

Zombie Knight...... No, should I say Death Knight?

Is it the superior species of zombies?

Death Knight comes straight this way.

"... hunting"

To see how 'Crisis Sensing' reacts, he's probably about as strong as Shadow Wolf or Oak. You don't seem to take any other people with you, and you're after them.

Set aside an opportunity for discussion, I haven't had that much time to stand yet, but I can't help it.

I immediately sent a signal to the Ichinoses downstairs.
