VRMMO no Shien Shokunin ～Top Player no Shikakenin～

"I guess I met with Medius five years ago now."

"Huh?"

Also unexpected words are released from Hidehei.

We met five years ago...? That's a long way off.

I'm currently a sophomore in high school, so you mean six years in elementary school?

"It was in the middle of nowhere that I stopped interacting"

"... go on"

Have we been dating for quite a while?

When Hidehira was in Nakaji... Ha?

After I got to know Hidehei already, did anything seem like it?

"So, I've never seen him in real life!

"Are you saying we're just friends online?

"Yes, you will."

In that regard, it is not particularly uncommon.

We meet Haru and Marie outside TB, but rarely will we develop into a real life relationship.

Even if you feel comfortable, you may not be able to see each other because of the distance.

Even at home, on the edges and edges, it's a long way off, even more so if the other person is abroad.

"Medius... right. The first time I saw him, he was a really boring guy to play games with."

"Huh?"

That's unexpected.

I only had the impression that I pulled a step back, but Medius was always smiling when I put him together at a wild party.

It's hard to speculate to the heart... but does it mean that Hidehira is different now than she has spoken in her past form?

"And I was a PK after Medius like that."

"... heh"

This is a familiar story.

Hidehira is somewhat more than a crowd looking for a real and impracticable experience in the game.

So it's no surprise that some games have taken such a style of play.

"What do you mean? The kind of eyes you see in that filth!

"I didn't, those eyes. What is that? Were you even a bad classmate at that time in elementary school? It's a little violent."

……

"Or did you even do something that a group of women hated?

……

"I see. Both."

"Why are you letting me guess when I pierced your silence? Ooh!? And the dimensions are the same! Esper!?"

"I can't believe it. If I look at you now, I'll know."

Hidehei doesn't like basically Yankee-like boys.

Even in elementary school, well... the one with the signs that it was already going to be was near me.

It goes without saying when it comes to women.

I guess I even made him cry with the usual extra word.

"So, you were stressing out in the game?"

"Oh... will it, will it?

"No, it doesn't matter. It's about you, so I guess he was playing in a game that's probably against PK, right? An element of the game, or a force? That's what it's like."

"I knew you were Esper!? Frightened! Wow, frightened!

"Shut up, you little one. More than that, a continuation of the story"

"Oh, wow."

Weird and small, though I don't feel like I can say anything about people.

Anyway, Hidehei resumed the conversation... I opened my mouth once to try, but accidentally reversed my orientation.

When the computer is switched on, it somehow opens a folder with images.

"What's up?

"Uh... there must have been an image from the time I met with Medius, so I thought I'd show it to us and talk."

"What's an image... is it a game? Look, do you know what it is?

"It's okay, it's okay. It's the same physical scan and projection VR games as TB."

That's what Hidehira says. She looks for images from inside the folder.

... Steady and cluttered all the way to the computer just like in the room.

It's going to take me a while to find what I'm looking for - and it was when I tried to distract myself from the screen.

Unexpectedly, a large number of copies of the same person appear in a full folder.

Who is it...

"... dude. What is this massive demon king image?

Large, red eyes with hanging eyes.

The hair is black, an outside girl with a little horn growing from its head.

Definitely, this image all fits TB's demon king figure from every angle.

"Oh, I made a mistake with my usual habits"

"You're not mistaken. Oh, wow! With the amount of data in the folder!

"Just for the data, that means you have a lot of love for my Demon King!

"It's weird!

This is it if you think you accessed it strangely quickly from all these scattered folders.

Incidentally, there are a number of image folders in Hidehira's image folders, but many images are left unattended without folder separation.

Plus, there are more folders in the folder, and also in it - and in some things, it's like Matryoshika, which makes my head ache.

"... can you find it? At this rate, really."

"Ma, wait! Wait a minute longer! I'm sure it's around here... there it is! There it is!

And finally, Hidehei gets to a certain folder.

It was in that folder, located deep and deep, as if sinking into the depths of memory….

"Overall, the graphics are rough compared to the VR games today."

"Well, compared to the VRX3500. Server loads and stuff."

"If you think about it, it's natural because it reflects each person's biological data in the game..."

And that's about the impression of the whole image.

With regard to the contents of the core, it was "the trajectory of Hidehei's defeat" if expressed in a word.

This game appears to be a specification that allows video taken overlooking (fukan) to be saved as an image later, and the elementary school student Hidehira continues to be shown in the same person.

I'm not masking a ninja like I am now, and I'm sorry! All in all, the black light armor with the design is equipped with a black coat.

Apparently, he usually wore a hood attached to that coat deep in his eyes.

Although my face looks normal because it's just an image after I'm hit.

"My face will be ready now from this time of year...... KEEP"

"Wow, how do you feel about being the first to come out...?

"How can this make a girl hate me? I can't help but wonder."

"Leave me alone!? Oh, no, don't leave me alone! Do something!

"Don't be impotent."

I can't help but look at Hidehei's face as a boy, so I'll pay attention to the other parts.

He's a boy his age beating Hidehei... is this really Medius?

As suspicious as I am, the boy's eyes were rough.

I look at Hidehihei, the PK I defeated, with the same eyes as I look at the stone on the side of the road.

It was such a cold look, like I didn't have any emotion for winning.

"... you look like you don't know which one is PK"

"That's right. I've lost, but that cold face annoys me again. Come on."

"Ho."

Surely this would be a reaction that could stir up anger, as opposed to a stress exotherm that was Hidehei's purpose.

But this game is easy to understand the damage expression...... as far as I can tell, Medius seemed intact when he said it was after the fight.

If this is all overwhelming, it's usually not strange to give up.

But Hidehei didn't, apparently.

"School... while I was in elementary school, I figured out a way to take down Medius. That's from morning till school time, on the side of the class."

"Hey."

"While I was thinking about it, I couldn't care less about my classmates."

……

When they say that, I feel like I can't be angry with them.

To Hidehira back then, defeating Medius must have been like a living thing.

There is a nostalgic grin on Hidehira's face as she talks and sends an image of the computer, and at the same time, there is something complicated that makes her suffer the pain of an ancient wound.

"When you're out of school, run home. I tried again and again. He's in the same elementary school habit as me, at the top of the game... he tried to fight again and again because he could easily grab his place"

Images are sent.

One, two, three... the date and time they were recorded also goes a little further.

Hidehei's losing was the same, but that's changing a little bit too.

Damage increases to Medius immediately after a gradual win.

Hidehira's fallen position draws closer to Medius.

And above all...

"Ah."

……

It was I who raised my voice, Hidehei who laughed and silenced.

- Above all, the look of Medius gradually eases over time.

Eventually, beside Hidehei, who bounces off in a big gutsy pose.

Medius - despite losing, was laughing.

Happily from the bottom of my heart, I was laughing.

"After this image, I had my first proper conversation with Medius."

"What, now!?

"And it was so pretty. Clean scattered."

"Oh, oh... because you lost and Medius was laughing?

"Yes! Whatever. I wanted it because that calm, chilling, ruthless Medius was a face of regret stepping on the estate! Oh, my God, this refreshing, sunny smile. Huh! I'm pissed off even now that I remember it!!

"You, that's..."

Perhaps, but I have many misunderstandings as to why Medius laughed.

To see the transition of Medius in this series of images, I'm sure...

But Hidehei blocks it before I go on.

"Yeah, I know exactly now. The reason he laughed then... he was a so-called genius, wasn't he? By the time I met him, he was almost graduating from college."

"So, college? I mean, you mean flying class?

"That."

I think I heard some records of boys and girls graduating from college at a lower age, and I don't think so.

Then, was Medius living abroad...?

Such things should go a lot further overseas than in Japan.

"The one without such a sense of reality, existed close to you..."

"... I'll tell you what, it's probably the name of Marie Chichi, whom we first met on TB, right? Rich Patskin, your daughter and the butler?

"Oh, well. I'm sorry I broke your hip... Continue"

Hidehei resumes image feeding.

Then, after a little while, something unusual from the previous defeat image begins to line up.

The two wins and losses began to alternate, eventually......

"Well, keep going. For such a genius, Medius, it's a game I've been desperately playing, a game where I can get to the top with my nose full of shit. Come on."

"You, don't you still have it subtly in your roots...? Besides, I think the game is a play in the right way, huh?

"After I won my first victory and started talking to him, I knocked him right in. Games are the supreme! an absolute dish!

"Something's wrong with what you're saying, but I just know you did a good thing"

Eventually, Hidehei in the image...... Kate and Medius start fighting together.

Sometimes with giant monsters and sometimes with unusual numbers of PK populations.

The medius in that image seemed to be really fun, and there was nowhere to be a cold look like the first look down or an objective.

That's between boys with age-appropriate faces, and they're just obsessed and playing games.

... you're a good game buddy.

"Hmm...... I see. I understood how we got along better. By the way, Hidehei."

"Yes?"

"Who is this girl pictured with you guys from the middle of nowhere? Seems like a lot of times I've partied by chance."

"Uh..."

Hidehei scratches the back of his head with a troubled face, although it doesn't seem as serious as when he asks about Medius.

... what? For a moment, I wondered if maybe this child had caused me to become alienated from Medius.

Hi, it's a triangle. It doesn't seem that way.

What emotions can you read from Hidehei's appearance... "bad consciousness," is it?
