The World Is Overflowing with Monster, I’m Taking a Liking to This Life

What happened was we were on our way to the ground floor.

Dim hallways illuminated by candles and LED lantern light.

The ceiling suddenly flashed irregularly.

"... Huh?

Raise your voice unexpectedly.

Everyone looks up at the ceiling.

Lights lit the fluorescent lamps installed on the ceiling.

"... lights? Liar, did it come with electricity?

Rokka surprises me.

Nishino and you are amazed.

I was pretty upset inside, too.

That's right.

In today's world, electricity is almost unusable.

We can still use small appliances that run on dry batteries, but facilities that need electricity from wires, wireless, etc. have been completely silenced.

I've made sure many times on my way here, and that's for sure.

Yet now, more and more lights are lit inside City Hall.

What the hell is this all about?

(... Is the system of self-generation alive?

I haven't tried the generator yet, but why haven't I used it before?

Because the noise is loud and it attracts monsters?

(Or in a completely different way...?

Hilariously, see the fresh water chief walking ahead.

She doesn't seem particularly surprised by this situation.

(You know something...?

I almost talk to him unintentionally, but Mr. Ichinose's character makes me think that's a bad idea.

Come on, that's crazy.

"Shimizu... could this be...?

"Yeah, maybe Fujita's right."

"Cheng Cheng, do you mean..."

Fujita seems convinced of something, and nods Hmm.

Stop.

Just stop talking to each other like you understand.

Some people don't understand, so please explain it properly.

"What do you mean, Fujita? What the hell is this...?

And if you think about it, Nishino asked me a question instead of me. Nice.

Fujita turns to Nishino with a serious face.

"That being said, we were in the middle of a conversation."

……

"How is this the place - where City Hall is a 'safety zone' where monsters don't come in? You didn't tell me why, did you?

"Huh...!

Nishino's expression was strong.

Rokka-chan and everyone else go out of their way.

I was upset inside too.

What, are you telling me? Seriously?

Anyway, that's what I want to know, and I'm here now.

Focus on not listening to each word, and wait for Fujita's words.

"In conclusion, this is Mayor Uesugi's skill. That man's profession is' Mayor '. And the skills you own -" Town building. "

Fujita told me about Mayor Uesugi's skills.

"Town Building"

That's Mayor Uesugi's skill.

The name is roughly the same, but the effect is awesome.

To summarise its effects on a large number of clutter,

The place designated by the mayor of Uesugi - a radius of 50 meters - is separated as an area and becomes the "property" of the mayor of Uesugi.

"Ownership" becomes a safety zone where monsters are not allowed in.

By the way, as for the effect radius, they actually drew monsters to measure it.

Also, if you increase your skill level, the range of 'holdings' will be extended and various functions will be freed up.

Its functions include, for example, water supply and gas, boilers, electricity, and defense equipment on the property.

"When we got here, there was a moat right next to the barricade, right? That's who I am."

After selecting "Defense Equipment," they were able to build that moat.

They also have other traps for monsters.

Hear that, Rokuka twists her neck.

"Is that it? But no monsters come in here, right? Then you don't have to make it like that?

"Just in case. If, for any reason, a monster breaks into you, you don't have to worry about anything, do you? If you're ready, don't worry."

"That sort of thing. And not everyone here can fight. For these people, it's very important to say 'visible defenses'. It's easier to tell with things than with things, it's always the same."

"Well, I've been thinking about the colors."

To what Fujita and Chief Shimizu said, Rokusawa nods yeah.

"You must have thought of securing drinking water, strengthening defense facilities, and then electricity (energy). With electricity, you'll be able to use all kinds of equipment that you've never been able to use."

Ooh, that leaks.

Sure enough, even electricity would make it possible to use refrigerators and computers as well as lights.

(But how the hell does this power work?

Where the hell is it supplied from?

No, well, I guess that's it when it comes to the effect of skills, but I thought it was fantasy around there after all.

Arrive on the ground floor.

There were already a lot of people there.

Maybe there's a whole bunch of people inside this city hall.

About seventy in all, I guess? I don't think there are a hundred of them.

And their front row.

Standing on a simple pedestal is Mayor Uesugi.

I have a loudspeaker in my hand.

"Uh, let's apologize for letting you hang out with a sudden call. This is why we got together, but as we all already know..."

The reason for Mayor Uesugi's sudden call was still his explanation for this restoration of electricity.

For newcomers like us, he briefly explained his profession and skills, and explained that this time he was able to use electricity by upgrading his skills.

Everyone is shining their eyes at the excitement and hope that the electricity is now available.

Inside it's like, 'Long live the mayor!' Some cry out loud.

(... In the meantime, this has achieved its original purpose)

Unexpected, City Hall was able to learn about the reasons for the safety zone and its skills.

Only if you believe their story, though.

It didn't even look like you were lying to me, and I'd probably like to think it's true.

(Well, how should we move now...)

Stay here or leave.

If the monsters really can't come in, then this is a very attractive place...

(... In the meantime, do you want to join Ichinoses once?)

Well, let's all discuss it and decide what we're going to do.

Click on unread items to email the information you know first.

Oops, the number of unread emails becomes about the same.

The scroll bar looks like a loose end......

Well, once all the subjects were 'no anomalies', let's go through.

Quickly engage and transmit information.

That's it.

"Email received."

Morning!

Reply Early!

I open my email, thinking it's the same.

'Okay. Well, let's rendezvous once. Can you get out of this well? Or should we go this way?

... I'd rather go than have you come over here.

In the unlikely event a powerful monster emerges while Mr. Ichinoses is on the move, it would be less risky for me to go over there with fast legs.

Send an email like that and look around.

(All right, I think I'm gonna get out of here because my stomach hurts)

I was just thinking, why don't we run the operation?

It's a cage operation in the bathroom.

I just tried to jerk off Roppo's hem.

(... hmm?

Well, I got eyes on Mayor Uesugi standing on the stage.

"- This way, thanks to everyone, electricity is also available! It may be a small light from the whole thing, but it's a big step for us! I want you to keep fighting with me! I asked for it!

Mayor Uesugi smiles lavishly and inspires everyone.

grandiose and then stand-up behavior that attracts people somewhere.

But... I felt uncomfortable with the look and tricks.

(... hiding something?

Little discomfort I noticed because of my 'observation' and 'enemy' skills.

That bothered me strangely, and I had a flash delay in my reaction.

Gashy, someone held my hand.

"Huh...!

Who is it?

Turn sideways.

And I open my eyes.

"... Huh?

Unexpectedly voiced.

There was a woman there I knew.

I let my nose snap and stare at me with a crying look on my face,

"- First... year?

Pompous, he squeaked so in a voice that seemed to disappear.

There's no way I can look at it wrong.

I was there when I was a junior from my livestock days, with two articles.
