When I woke up, I’m in the lab. There was the futon I should have folded, but I’m sleeping there for some reason.

“Awake?”

“What time is it now!?”

“11:30.”

Suzumoto, who was free because all the others went to the temple, seemed to be lonely and playing solitaire while I’m sleeping. Sorry.

“Have you heard from the others?”

“President said that they blended in normally. Seems like Kadomi and Toriumi went to the knight’s group, Hagasaki and President went to the magician’s group, Kariya is with the priest group, and Katori is in the archer group. Anyway, with so many adventurers and mercenaries there, he said that the temple is now full of people.”

“What about lunch?”

“Seems like they’ll eat over there. Or rather, it’s a live-in situation. Well, that’s to be expected since they don’t know when the Demon King will attack.”

Since it’s like that, I, Suzumoto, and Hariu, it will be just us three for a while.

“Hariu said he wanted to go home soon. Can you pick him up?”

Right, the ninja in the shadow won’t get any food. They’d be scared if he comes out.

By the way, seems like Hariu’s shadow crossing can’t travel between floors. I’m not sure about this because the limit is a little complicated and strange, so I can only say that.

“Then lunch is with three people. Is there anything you want to eat?”

“No, nothing in particular.”

It’s easy to understand why mother’s all over the world cursed [Anything is fine is the most troublesome!].

 

After a [Transfer] taxi round trip from Minamo’s view that Hariu took.

I came back with Hariu.

“I’m back~. Maito-san, what’s for lunch?”

“I haven’t decided yet, what do you want to eat?”

“Eh, then fried rice.”

Yup. That’s easy to make. …the problem is how to shake the pan.

 

“I’m done~”

I could barely shake the pan for 3 people’s servings, so I did it twice and made 1.5 servings each time.

Damn, muscle! I want muscle! More muscle! More power! Give me power!

…well, it’s easier to make it in small quantities. Yeah, there are some good things. Yup. It’s better to have muscle, though.

“As expected, if you pronounce it, it’s fried rice (hāchan), if you write it, it’s fried rice (chahān)~”

“The main point is still the first and last word, isn’t the position of the accent misaligned?”

“What are you talking about?”

“Which is closer to fried rice (chāhan), hāchan or chahān?”

(TN: Sorry guys, I’m not that proficient in Japanese to realize what they’re talking about.)

There’s no such thing.

 

While eating fried rice, President contacted me.

[Kadomi immediately got one. He strung along a high-ranking female paladin. She might be the victim of [Share] tonight since she didn’t have any special skills or tools that can seal [Share]. See if you can connect to Sakura.]

Uoh!? So fast!? To think it’d become such a story so soon….ah, maybe it’s fine. Since the other party is a knight, meaning, a combat profession, it’s not strange to talk about equipment and skills.

By the way, several maid dolls including Sakura are in the luggage of each member.

Since I can make them go stealth mode when needed, it doesn’t matter if they’re in the luggage.

It’s not good for privacy to keep an eye on them all the time, so for the time being, I told them, [If you don’t want to be seen, move the standard head equipment of the maid doll to their eyes to blindfold them.]

Sakura is the child who followed President, so it seems like President is in the right position to see Kadomi right now.

[By the way, I’m hidden right now.]

Of course, you are. President and Katori’s fighting styles depend on themselves. If they get caught, they’ll be out.

[It’ll be good training. I found that there was a problem with the one-on-one battle last time. It’s just right, so I’ll train a little here. The next contact will be this evening. See you then.]

It got disconnected. Looks like they’re busy over there. Even so, President still has some ambitions. That’s great. Personally, I don’t think it’s a perfect answer to say, [A guy without ambition is a fool], but well, it’s better to have it than not in the normal sense.

Since it’s a good time, I tried [Sharing] with Sakura.

When I looked, it was true. A female knight is talking about something next to Kadomi-kun who was taking care of his sword. Ah, maybe this person is one of those who was fighting Toriumi? She’s probably among the defeated ones.

I see, as expected, the Great Priest is the head of the temple. If it’s recovery magic, they can do something about it. In this situation, the three people who received a laser to their knees might be safe.

Even so, Kadomi-kun might be more outgoing, but it’s not at the level that women are not used to.

Thanks to that, the female knight isn’t wary, which might be attributed to her injury.

…when I asked Sakura to change her point of view, I could see Kariya, who seemed to be talking to a female priest.

This is also an atmosphere of [Let’s be kind to newcomers], so they wouldn’t expect that information was being collected…I wonder if these guys will be okay in their future lives.

No, I’m not worried about that, but…watching this makes me very anxious. About their communication ability.

…I can’t talk to other people either, but this is…

 

After having lunch and taxiing Hariu to the temple, I just sewed a change of [Temptation] equipment. The others had already changed their clothes, but I’m making the [Temptation] equipment now because I hadn’t had the time before. I plan to hand it over to Hariu later and have it delivered to everyone.

And Suzumoto, who seemed tired of solitaire, said something scary.

“Maito.”

“Hn?”

“I’m free so connect to someone’s maid doll and keep the pass open.”

“…ha?”

“Come on, open the pass.”

…by the way, I heard Hunter say something before I fell asleep. [Ah, it’s open.]

…okay. Maybe I’m wrong. It might be different. Looking back, I might have heard something like that at that time, but maybe I hadn’t. I decided it didn’t happen, but for the time being, I have to confirm it just in case.

“Maybe you and I have a pass connection?”

“You didn’t notice it!?”

…o-okay! Not yet! It’s still safe! The problem is from here!

“So, when you open the pass, something would leak out.”

“Ahh, I’ve done it before, like when I caught a cold.”

“I can also talk to Ketorami and Hunter through you.”

“Stop talking.”

…out…!

 

While I was depressed, he rushed to say, “Just show it to me since it’s fine, I’m curious”, so I opened it by trial and error.

It’s relatively difficult to be aware of what I had done unconsciously until now.

I mean, why is the pass….no, I can imagine.

That’s right, the contents of the glass.

“By the way, is Hagasaki-kun as well?”

“Yep, the pass is connected.”

Ah, yeah, as expected?

The contents on my head were leaking, that’s several times more embarrassing than being seen naked.

I mean, it’s just one word.

….but I want to disappear…

 

I’m depressed but I’ll just say I’m fine. Let’s do it. Let me try.

There was nothing else I could do, so I gave up and connected to the maid dolls while I continued to sew.

Suddenly, Suzumoto, who was next to me, blew up grandly, so I focused my attention on the maid doll.

The connection is with “Asagi”, the one with Hagasaki-kun.

I could see Hagasaki-kun, but the situation was strange.

When I took a closer look at the surroundings with Asagi in stealth, there are multiple female magicians holding canes.

I don’t know what happened or how, but Hagasaki-kun was being threatened by the beast-like female mages as they cornered him to the wall.

His clothes were disturbed so maybe he’s about to be stripped off by those female mages.

I see, so female mages are more active. Go for it.

“I didn’t think Hagasaki will be in this state…”

Seems like Suzumoto is also shocked. Well, that’s right. I’m pretty surprised too.

After watching for a while, Hagasaki-kun, who seemed to have finally ran out of patience, performed some water magic and ran away.

Because it hit at zero distance, the water ball exploded and covered them with water.

And after wandering around for a while, as soon as he noticed something, he quickly left to somewhere.

…uhm.

“Suzumoto-kun, please explain.”

“Maybe he’s looking for a “cleaning” person, but that happened? Maybe he became a main protagonist spraying nonsense on unsuspecting flowers.”

…somehow, sorry.

“Then. maybe he went to change clothes? He had a change of clothes so there’s no need to worry.”

 

Let’s take another look and this time, it’s Sakura, meaning, President’s point of view.

President was visible as well as the people surrounding him, regardless of gender. The ratio of women is higher, but there are also men.

As expected, since he can say, “Just think of it as acting”, he really seems like a different person.

“For President to laugh like this, it feels strange.”

“It’s kind of refreshing. But the weird feeling is greater.”

President was talking endlessly with a refreshing smile, and the people around him were enthusiastically listening to it.

From President’s expression, it seems like a place where people can’t get away after they first started listening.

…no, there are people who are listening enthusiastically and people who are pretending to be listening enthusiastically.

Actually, it’s possible to pick up the audio, but if I put the audio and pass it to Suzumoto, it’ll take too much load, so I picked up only the video. It gives a very strange feeling.

“President…seems to be brainwashing them?”

He could do it. I can’t deny that. Because it’s President.

 

I was curious about the previous one, so I changed my viewpoint to Hagasaki-kun’s “Asagi” again. But I soon took it down.

Hagasaki-kun was changing clothes. Didn’t I say to shift the head equipment to the eyes if they needed privacy? But still, sorry.

…looks like this is the room they’re sleeping in. As expected, it’s a shared room with others. No matter how large the temple is, it’s only natural that if they hire this number of mercenaries, they’ll run out of room. Yup.

“Maito, if you can’t show me Hagasaki-kun, at least put in the audio. I don’t understand what’s happening.”

…from a while ago, I’m being treated as a TV for Suzumoto to kill time…no, I’m more like a TV antenna. I’m the one who puts in the audio and suffers the load.

…still, I connected the audio since it can’t be helped.

“…you’re right. You can often hit such magic with such a thin body.”

Seems like his roommate is talking about something? When I secretly looked at the other person, it looks like a magician, however, he was quite a buff old man. Do magicians have to be muscular in this world?

“You’re not like a woman. However, as for your body, you have white skin. …are you from the north?”

However, I don’t know why he’s saying such a thing, look, Hagasaki-kun is getting angry. Depending on the situation, Hagasaki-kun’s landmines should have been stepped on…

“Even so, the height and skeleton are a little different, but be honest.”

“You’ve been going on and on from a while ago.”

Hagasaki-kun, who seemed to have run out of patience, finally interrupted the surgeon-like lines of that onii-san.

His voice was endlessly cold. But then.

“….where are you staring at? Pervert.”

…Onii-san, instead of avoiding it, raised a brow a little and whistled.

“That’s a good look. Do you hate it?”

…Suzumoto burst out laughing next to me. And I also began to laugh. Who can stop this laugh? No, there’s no way I can stop.

…it’s bad for Hagasaki-kun, but…for that old man…it’s a “reward”, yeah.

 

By the way, the old man went down by an ice bullet to the solar plexus. Amen.
