Nishino sent me an email. [M]

Apparently, the problem was cleared up safely.

What happened was explained in detail after the merger.

I've been apologizing via email for confusing you.

(... that's weird)

It's uncomfortable, or e-mail that isn't like you Nishino.

Rather than talking to him directly, he seems to be explaining what happened first by email.

... would you care too much?

(Trouble in the 'Safe Zone'...... if you can think of one, is that the student chairman?

But Nishino knows she has brainwashing skills, and I heard she's already acquired 'fascination tolerance'.

Besides, if Nishino can brainwash you again, someone in his crew will soon notice something strange.

If that happens, it's up to her to jeopardize her position here.

Would that snake-like cunning put her in such short circuit means?

Or some other trouble?

"That's an e-mail that doesn't look like anything"

"I knew Ichinose-san would agree?

He also felt uncomfortable with the ghost of the email, Ichinose.

He puts his hand on his chin and puts his neck around it.

"... Anyway, more than he's saying, let's rendezvous and then ask what's going on"

"Hmm, right..."

I'd like to talk to you in person. It's the same thing.

There are many things I would like to tell you about the fact that there was another individual golem, about the mysterious man who manipulated it, and about Ono.

(But how should I explain...)

Do you want to join Nishino anyway?

Me and Mr. Ichinose headed to a stronghold inside the Safe Zone.

"... is that true?

This is Nishino's first voice when he heard the circumstances.

I have the look on my face that I said I couldn't believe and I say, "Oh my God..." I cover my face with my hands.

"I hate to believe it, but it's true, Nissy."

Rokuka, who sat physically on the floor and rounded her body, sadly affirms.

Starting with you Shibata, the other members have the same look.

By the way, Nishino, who was forcibly housed in the Shadow Cage, has been freed.

I was told a lot because I suddenly locked myself in the shadows without any prior explanation, but he was convinced when he heard the circumstances.

"... so where's Ono now?

"It's in my 'shadow'. Because if you get raped or summoned, there was a chance that the others would find out."

Only Ono remains forcibly housed in the Shadow Cage.

I've been losing my mind, and it would have been more convenient for me to carry you.

"Can you get it out?

"... I think it's hard here"

"Why?"

"If he's really become a 'monster', the moment he gets out of the 'shadows', he could be ejected outside the 'safety zone'"

"Ah..."

I guess Nishino remembered you, too, when he said that.

- Monsters entering the 'Safe Zone' are ejected.

This is what Nishino told me before.

I didn't know he'd lost it, but he still seems pretty upset too.

"So, Ono stays in your 'shadow' the whole time?

"No... monsters who are human party members like Aka and Kiki can also enter the 'Safe Zone'. We can't leave you like this forever, so as soon as we wake up, we'll have to put Ono in someone's party."

There's only one way a monster can get inside the Safe Zone.

Getting into someone's party.

Skills like Shadow Cage can exceptionally go inside, but only while you are using them.

In order to get in and out freely, you still need to let someone join the party.

"I mean, Ohno, weren't you in someone's party originally?

"... the party that Ono was in has been wiped out except for him. That's why we couldn't grasp our feet, either."

"I see..."

Could that be the bad guys who were in their own convenience store, acting with Ono?

But then, they were attacked by two Lesser Wolves, and you deserted them and ran away. In distress, they were helped by Mr. Ichinose's sniping, and fled straight to somewhere.

... In the end, they must have died after that being attacked by monsters somewhere again.

Too bad it's the life I picked up.

"Mr. Kudo, I'm sorry to bother you, but could you come outside with us again? We'll try to convince Ono."

"... are you okay?

"I'll try, be sure"

It was a resolute reply.

I don't think you need to feel responsible, but it's still a fellowship.

"Okay. I'll leave his persuasion to you."

Nishino will persuade you well.

Rokuka raised her voice as she tried to get up.

"Oh, speaking of which, Nissy. I was getting an emergency text, but what happened?

Nishino looked like a bum on that question. [M]

"... the student chairman is here"

"Shh, seriously?

Rokka looks blatantly disgusted.

Apparently, Rokka, too, doesn't like that student chairman.

"Were you okay? Did something weird happen to you? Nissy, stay properly Nissy?

"Hey, Ri, he said stop the Roppo. You don't have to touch it so sticky."

"Really? You're all right, aren't you?

Rokka stuffing.

Panicking Nishino-kun.

"Oh, yeah, no problem. So don't lose it.... that, hit my chest"

"Hmm?"

"Oh, too. Just get away from me! 'Cause it's okay!

"Mm, what, people are worried because of you! Nissy, cool."

The expression pussy is the perfect way to get angry.

Nishino has a red face. [M]

Um, somehow, it feels sweet and sour watching, these two.

... Why aren't you dating?

"Mr. Kudo, it's a rear charge. There's Leah. Can I shoot you?

And Ichinose, who sensed the rear charging aura, is releasing a black aura.

"No. I mean, you can't shoot your best friend."

"Apart from that and this. That sweet and sour air, I can't stand it. I feel nauseous."

Mr. Ichinose spit and threw away.

No, this communism, we have to do something soon.

"Um, so how did the student chairman get here?

The story seemed totally out of line, so let's put it back together.

Nishino-kun also turned his gaze on this one, fortunately.

"Oh, uh, something bothers me, and I think you've been visiting me."

"What do you care?

"Yeah, this is it"

That's what Nishino took out of his nostalgia was "PR Heiwai City," an intelligence magazine.

Yeah, he's something I've seen at the company.

They put it in the reception room with newspapers and magazines, but you never read it.

I wasn't interested in this town at all.

"Is this what you did?

Rokka leans her neck, too, and peeks all the way into Nishino's informational magazine that you have.

A valley with a good view. Step aside for a moment, deflect your face and Nishino answers. My cheeks are juicy. Ubb.

"Eh, this is not a problem in itself. I was curious about this part of the population-"

Nishino explained to me by scratching.

I was wondering if the number of people in this town is too small today compared to the number of people in the information magazine.

And the student chairman also felt the discomfort he felt, and he came to ask about it.

"... is that really all?

"... Yes, it is"

Nodding Nishino-kun.

It feels like it's included somewhere, but it doesn't look like it's brainwashed.

Well, okay.

"Population...... if you do say so, maybe so"

If you ask me, I do feel like there are too few people in the world today.

I've seen a glass of bodies attacked by monsters before, but that's a trivial compared to the total number of people in this town.

There will be a large number of people caged or hiding somewhere, but there are certainly a small number who have done so.

(How could I have never noticed such great discomfort before?

No one questions that.

I didn't even care until Nishino told me.

"... hmm? I don't even care...?

"What is it, Mr. Kudo?

"No, I think I forgot something..."

What was that?

uncomfortable...... yes, I feel uncomfortable with 'something' like this before......

What was that? I can't remember.

(Isn't it a big deal that you can't remember?

No, I'm not... Is that what they think?

What? Forget what...,

"... ah"

Desperately following my memories, I'll be hacked.

With that being said, why have I ever forgotten about that?

Everyone's gazing at me.

"What's the matter, Mr. Kudo? Have you noticed anything?

"No, it's not that big a deal..."

No, you can't.

It's obviously an 'anomaly' to see why you're making me think that even beyond this period.

So I need to speak clearly and confidently.

"-" Tree "..."

"Ki?"

"It's a giant tree growing outside. That said, there are a number of strange things about me."

Everyone puts their necks around my words.

Yes. The first giant tree I've ever seen in this world.

An existence that is an obvious foreign object, yet has embraced discomfort in a memorable way.

I wonder why I've forgotten about it until now.
