"And?　Follow me?

That's right!

"You'll get holiday pay, but you'll be a lot more leveled up than in previous dungeons, right?

Well, as a gamer, you're good at it, that I am.

I think you need someone to treat the injury.

"......

Kaido, Minami, Masaru, and the usual party members announce their participation.

This is what happens when I let the recapturing team agree to participate, not escape.

Now, the physical talks are necessary for these stubborn men to withdraw their opinions.

Dismissed!

""Ehhh~"

"I'd like to say, ......, but I think these guys are at least an asset, don't you?

That's what I'm thinking about. It's a good thing that Kaido-san and the others are in the game, because it's only me, Keely and Memoria that are currently a decent force.

"It's like throwing bait in front of them. It's not fair for me to say this, but I don't want to take any risks. What about the other employees?　I mean, that demon and all that stuff looks strong.

I thought it was rude to point at a demon, even a demon, and saw a dandy demon who could be called a well-built master, who was now a waiter, but was waving a shaker behind the counter.

"There are some humans who can fight and some who can't.

"The employees here are mainly non-combatants, or they look strong.

"They say the sight of blood makes you faint.

"The devil, right?

"Because even the devil is different.

It seems that there are really only a few people who are genuinely capable of being a force to be reckoned with.

If it's a lockdown, but if it's an offensive force, it's a different story.

You're going to have to escape and Suela and the other three of us are going to attack while reinforcing our forces in various places, but if you increase your forces, that's a different story.

"The good news is that even if we are trapped in here, it will prevent an attack on this place and give us more time.

"Thanks to Superintendent Evier's leadership,

"Yes, so it can't be wasted.

"It's going to affect my bonus assessment if I waste it.

You should be able to pay half the price. It's only half the price, right?

"It doesn't sound like a joke, so let's get back into it.

And although we would have been the first to be attacked, the supervisor seems to be the reason we were able to have a strategy meeting without panic.

According to Suela and her team's investigation, the dungeon has been taken over, but the functioning of the dungeon itself is still in the hands of the other side.

It seems that the supervisors have activated the dungeon system's emergency shutdown system.

It seems to be a protective measure to prevent the dungeon from being hijacked by an emergency situation with a breaker-like switch, but it seems to be one of the trump cards that can only be restored by following the dungeon master's general orders or sequentially restoring each part of the dungeon.

This information explains why the lifelines are no longer available all at once, and also reaffirms that supervisor was cornered.

"We don't have the time or the mental capacity for questions and answers here. I don't have the time or the mental capacity to ask and answer questions here.

"Well, let's split the group into two at .......

It's less of a risk, but less of a liability, right?

"It's all good if you can manage the risk, Kaylee, how's the system back up?

What the hell, Suela, I'm not in my day job, okay?

If you want to complain, report it to Master Evvia, just use your hands.

The gate is the only one that will be up and running soon. One of them will have to stay with us to activate it, but we can place those demons in the battery.

I think I just heard some great rubrics. Devil sacrificed, that's novel.

Ms. Keely, who is working on a simple restoration project bypassing Suela's authority, is tinkering with the facility's employee gates.

The entrance gate is in the front and open it for the enemy to swarm in.

Those gates that are not suitable for defense are currently being sealed by Memoria.

This will ensure the safety of the remaining personnel and secure the base.

And this place for the remaining employees is inconspicuous and, because it's a recently constructed gate, it's perfect for a surprise attack that the enemy has no idea about.

First, we need to secure our equipment.

"Yeah, I'd rather not be unarmed, indeed.

It's not that you can't fight, but it's not your main job, so it's inevitable that your strength will drop.

That goes for Suela, too.

Our equipment is stored in the party room.

Well, my equipment is in the employee's locker room, so from a distance it would be better to give priority to Jiro-san and the others. Let's collect them in turn.

Well, once we've got the equipment back, what's left to do to reinforce the force?

Yes, and if there's going to be a division of forces, this is probably the right time. Let's have Keely lead Kaido and the others to free each department. If you can do that, we'll have our forces ready to go. At this stage, we should be able to regain our footing.

Suela is not stagnant as she explains the strategy that has already been built in her head.

We have no idea how much information is actually in her head.

"Diversion or

Yes, they will have to divert their forces to the presence of a target, which will inevitably create an opening. In the meantime, we will take the dungeon and go to free the supervisor.

"......

Her strategy was a two-pronged strategy as well as a blitzkrieg.

Indeed, if you can free Supervisor Evvia, you can't just turn the board upside down.

It would also be possible to checkmate from outside the board.

So that's what we have to do.

I can't think of anything else I can think of that I won't fall back on.

"So when you get your memory back,

"That's not necessary. I'm back. The work is done. And while you're at it, I picked up a few bits and pieces, too.

The memoria that finished the sealing procedure in good time has returned.

The way she appeared, you'd think she was aiming for it, but it's definitely better than bad timing.

But her statement was followed by a disturbing word at the end of her statement.

Found?

"No, it's a found 'thing'. It was hiding in the shadows of the facility.

Oh, not a thing but a person, with a slightly different pronunciation, but I could have ended up with a difference in intonation.

If you were hiding, maybe you caught an intruder?

If so, we might be in for a bad ride.

We might get some information by reconnaissance, but the presence of reconnaissance means there is a way into this place.

That may cause us to completely rethink our defense.

"And then?　Where is that found object?

Make eye contact with Suela, nod quickly and ask her whereabouts to take care of it as soon as possible.

Whether it's an object or a thing, the memoria is empty-handed right now.

Then it was left behind somewhere.

I'll confirm its whereabouts.

There's a standoff with Kitamiya over there.

"...... Jesus!　You're over there.

The word tension really doesn't last when I'm talking to Memoria.

It feels like something that should have a certain bounce to it has slackened all at once.

It's not a bad situation, but it seems that trouble has been rolling in.

It's not as bad as the trouble of spying and scouting, but it's not as welcome as it could be.

I don't want to get involved in it, but I can't just leave it at that, so I reluctantly looked in the direction of where Memoria was pointing and said, "Oh, I'm going to pretend I didn't see that.

'Oh, I wish I hadn't seen that.

"...... What should I do?

What do I do?

I regretted what I saw.

Suela was Suela and she didn't know how to express herself.

At least at the end, she settled into a confused expression, put her hand to her cheek and thought about it.

As the person in charge of the scene, this is a good time to be angry.

After all, I'm giving up on a lover's quarrel in this emergency situation.

I don't want to get involved in ......, but I'm going to go.

I'll be there.

Please.

Again, it's a sign of wanting to escape from reality, and my breath is naturally deep.

Honestly, it's the kind of thing that you don't want to look at or listen to unless it's an emergency, and you want to drink a beer and forget about the existence itself.

A man trying to get back together, hazumi, and Kitamiya threatening like a cat saying it's over and there's no intention to get back together, and a woman who won't leave hazumi's side while trying to keep them close.

Was her name Nanase or something like that, as I recall?

Does she realize that the position is adding more fuel to the fire?

"You wouldn't know it.

In a sense, I respect the two of them for their ability to undermine their position as women, so much so that even I, as a man, want to feel sorry for Kitamiya.

Karen, please listen to me.

So it was a misunderstanding.

Misunderstanding, I was shown kissing a woman who wasn't my girlfriend?　Or am I mistaken?　You and I were just friends, not lovers.

Kitamiya's attitude is seemingly bullish, but you can see that her arms are tightly clasped together and she is holding onto them.

She is seemingly emotional, but patient.

She is able to distinguish between what is right and wrong, and contrary to her headstrong personality, she is a hoarder.

Well, being patient does not mean you are patient.

Maybe it's because my patience is not so tight, but that kind of remark stands out.

You're in my way.

"What is it?

I told you, I literally came to interrupt you. Also, I have an errand to run, but it's Kitamiya, not you.

"What?

You are able to glare at me, telling me to read the air, but I want to say that you are the one who should read the air.

But if you say that every time you say it, things get bogged down.

So, let's just ignore the stare and finish our business.

I'd like to ask Kitamiya-san to join Kaido-san's group.

"The point is, we need you to come in and help us with our party. Time is running out, make a quick decision, and if you can't, I'm sorry to say you'll have to leave the building.

I have to say, I'm not sure if it's possible for me to get the job done, but after spending some time with Kitamiya, I thought we could work together, and that's why I made the offer of help.

It goes without saying that the firepower of Kaido and the others who will be working separately will be reduced as I work with Suela, plus we will lose our shield players.

We need to make up the difference where we can.

If it's lying in front of you, I'll make a move to pick it up.

Wait a minute, she is!

"Your party members?　Of course I am aware that I am invading someone else's territory. That's why we're applying through legitimate channels instead of underhandedly. At least that makes sense, right?

"I'll be reporting to your supervisor, Kayla Nostalfel, after the fact, but that's on me, so there's no violation of company policy. This is an emergency, so please refrain from letting your emotions get in the way of your statement.

You will be able to find the best way to get the most out of your newborn baby.

It's a good thing that this guy has come to the point, his expression is unchanged, but if the atmosphere is any indication, he doesn't like coming into the territory with his feet on the ground to the point that his gut is churning.

The eyes speak louder than the mouth is rightly reserved for guys like this guy.

...... All right, I'll help you with your party.

"Shang Koi!

"Kako-chan!

And just in case you want to get out of your party. I'm not going back.

The look in his eyes as he speaks seems to be shifting between emotions.

A woman is a creature of observation.

You can find a number of different types of shoes and boots for you to choose from.

In the atmosphere that changed from anger to confusion, the screams of fire-clearing, including control, or rather reprimand, rather than question, were swept away like the wind slipping away.

''Ha!　I'll help you too!　Then,

"Ah!　Shut up!　I already told you to leave me alone!

If you were to describe that sound onomatopoeically, would it be guong?

It's not to cut off the wind, but to generate friction as if to grind, and it appears.

It's not just a simple matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on it.

It's a good thing that you're able to get the best out of it.

I thought as I watched fire-clearing floating in the air.

"No goo, right?

I'd think that at least if you're going to punch me in the face, you should leave it at par, but I wouldn't say it.

Because if I did, a shot that could have set the world on fire was going to land here.

Maybe it's because of the slow-motion effect or maybe my eyes sensed the danger and accelerated in my brain, but this is a real-life example of how a woman's anger can be sublimated to this level.

Oh, that felt good.

Will you have a refreshed personality?

Or is it an unrooted character?

After pouring all his anger on this blow, Kitamiya's expression was more refreshing and smiling than when he released it in a play earlier.

There was already no anger in his appearance.

It's not an expression that comes to life beside the fire clearing that seems to float in the air and fall into the ring like a boxing manga.

It's a good idea to have a good time with them, but you can't help but clap your hands together in your heart as the same man.

"Toru-kun!

"At ......?　Where do I go?

It's a good thing that you're not aware of the fact that you're in a hurry to run to Nanase, who has fallen down and is rushing over to the fire-clearing fire.

It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're going to be doing.

"Meet up with Kaido and the others, Kaylie-san is there too.

Okay, and the leader is Kaylee?

Yeah, you're relying on you for rear firepower. I'm counting on you.

I'm tempted to add that the vanguard is also.

But I'll give myself away.

You know what to do. Well, I'll pay you back.

It's probably to relieve stress during the day.

With a wave of your hand, you head towards Kaido and the others.

You're now in full force, but Memoria, you picked up a hell of a lot of stuff.

I brought him along as a tester and thought he would be an asset, but I didn't think it would happen.

"No, we talked about it in the daytime, didn't we?

"Daytime ...... oh

"You just realized that?

It's a bit deliberate, but it seems like the information is now consolidated in an atmospheric way.

I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this in the future.

Well, that's still a good asset, although it's likely to be of limited use.

I don't think "limited" would be a more accurate term, since there's nothing more useless than a guy who's just been dumped, right?

"Relentless.

You are reading story Entering a Company From Another World!? at novel35.com

It's a conversation that makes you wonder if this is really an emergency, but it's better to be nervous than to be badly tense.

"They'll stay here and be on the defensive. The rest.

Without piecing together the words "on schedule," Suela's command was the starting point.

It's past nine o'clock and I'm in a corner of the company's warehouse.

The faint light glows for a moment, and at the same time, I lean back against the nearby wall to keep an eye on my surroundings.

"Clear.

I didn't think the day would come when I would utter lines like the special forces, but the body itself moves smoothly because it has similar movements when attacking dungeons.

The outfit has changed from a swimsuit to a diver's suit from the facility.

Giant's special diver's suit has a stab-proof effect and was adopted as equipment to prevent injuries in rocky areas.

The footwear was also changed to a type of shoe that won't slip at the water's edge, making it easier to move around.

Suela and Minami collaborated to develop a soundproof barrier to prevent the rubber from slipping.

It's a good idea to make sure that you're able to have a good time with them.

There's no reaction in the area, let's go.

All beings in this company have magical powers.

I've been told that the magic is like a passive sonar that detects it.

Even if the magic is hidden, it is said that it is possible to cover it due to the level and status difference.

You're going to be able to find out what's going on in the company.

Please stop.

Like some spy movies, I know the structure of the building, so I'll be able to duck and duck, but everything will be fine until the halfway point.

After leaving the warehouse, we proceeded inside the company to our first destination, which was our party room, a liaison corridor connecting the dormitory and the company, and personnel to monitor the dormitory was placed at the entrance.

The janitor's room has been turned into a choke point.

An armed dark elf has just emerged from the room.

He's probably on patrol. He went straight to the back and up the stairs.

How many?

"There is a distance ...... I don't know exactly, but I'm sure there are four of them.

"You're not on our side, are you?

"Yes.

I'm sure you've been using detection magic as well, but this one is with Suela and Minami, and so far they don't seem to be aware of it.

The dark elf and demon man duo is on the alert for their surroundings, mixing in the occasional chatter.

A dark elf with a staff and a bare-handed demon, both equipped with light armor, presumably intended to be indoors.

In modern times, it would be equipped with equipment like clothing or protective armor, but the opponent is fantasy legion equipment is also fantasy.

But .

"Convenient.

It's a good thing we have a couple of rear guards on guard, though, or is there a possibility of a trap?

There will be no . Fewer responses in the building, no response from the summoning team.

What if it is?

Perhaps they are using this dormitory as a temporary housing facility. There is one room with a lot of reactions.

So, it's a good thing we're going to conquer it all at once.

Cockerel and snapping one's neck.

"South, get the scaffolding ready.

"Yes, that I do.

"Take care

"Oh.

Shift consciousness from vigilance to combat status, sharpening awareness with abrasive tension.

A landscaped connecting passageway has surprisingly many blind spots.

Planted trees, brick blocks in the flower beds, the roof of the walkway.

It's true that you can't move through the physical environment to the end of your blind spot, but...

Nuh!

"What!　Mugu!"?

Create a foothold in the south in a free-running fashion and attack from above.

Magic ambush is hard to take against demons and dark elves.

Because they are both magic-centric species, they have an excellent ability to sense magic.

But on the other hand, their direct combat abilities are often neglected by their race.

I'd heard from Suela that her status was superior, but I didn't think she'd be able to steal your consciousness so easily.

I lay the dark elf down next to the wall, stopping the blood flow in his neck and sending his consciousness flying.

Since demons are apparently sturdy creatures by nature, I mercilessly dropped my elbow into the medulla oblongata, but I didn't feel it shatter or crack.

I checked to make sure that he was conscious, but both of them were unconscious.

I call out to them with a hand sign and restrain them.

You have a lot of experience with that, Ms. Keely.

"Huh? Do you want me to tie you up too?

I'll leave that sort of thing to Kaido.

"Oh really?　Miss Kaido, you might be a bit of a draw for me.

"Rumors?

I rubbed Kaylee's unraveling joke on Kaido as I quietly peeked through the door.

It's funny, my job is supposed to be to capture dungeons, but what I'm doing is just like a special forces infiltration mission.

I was expecting a brawl at the beginning of the game, so I'm not so sure it's going to work out like this.

You'll have to go as far as you can go, though you may wonder if this is a trap.

How are you doing, Suela?　What do you find out?

"You have found out that the tester and the shopping district officer are locked up here. It's not as if the other party has been able to telegraph their affiliation information to each other.

I'm not that naive, but I wish I could figure out something from the equipment.

"You do not know a dark elf, that you do not know him?

Just because they are lesser in number doesn't mean they all know each other, you know?

The exchange between Kaylee and Suela, Kaylee is tying up the unconscious guard, while Suela is deploying a spell with her hand on the forehead of the two restrained men.

There are some telepathic spells for eavesdropping as well.

One disadvantage is that the receiver must be within reach, but Suela also responds with spoofed communications to obtain information.

There are regular reports and patrol reports of the dark elf man who just left.

Still, we are grateful for information that we do not have.

Well, you have to take your hat off to Suera's specs to process magic at the same time to detect, listen in, and forge.

Kaido, you stay on guard. Suela, do you know how many people are inside?

"Yes, sir.

There are three people inside. Memoria, I'm busy at the moment, could you help me out?

"I'm sure you two will be fine, but I'll call for backup, okay?

Give me your position, I'll take one.

Then Jiro should just charge in. I'll kill it from the shadows.

Suela is busy, Kaido and the others are now on a perimeter alert, and Kaylie is trying to figure out which faction she's dealing with based on her equipment.

She's doing her best, I'll do my best too.

Slowly and soundlessly gripping the doorknob, Memoria slips into my shadow like a man sinking into a coal tar.

Making sure it's fully entrenched, I take two slow, deep breaths.

Although the silencing wards should keep the sound from escaping, the desire to silence the sound still quiets my breathing.

I open the door, remembering the sensation of a beast slipping in, rather than the sensation of exploding what I had been holding back.

Hmm?　Ugh!"?

It wasn't a diversion, but rather a natural rush, as if someone you know had just walked in, creating a momentary pause in the opponent's reaction.

If I'd had that moment, there's no way I would have jumped in and struck my opponent in the throat.

A blow to the giant's throat, which would have been too much for the little memoria, and a kick to the knee, holding his head where it dropped, but

"Hard, hey!

The Giant, who is indeed confident in his endurance, is still conscious despite the relentless attacks on his throat and face.

At this rate, if you try to choke him off like before, he'll recover.

Your gut tells you before reason.

"Sink. ！！！！

I dare to follow my instincts to perform an act that must not be done to others.

Even though the consciousness doesn't fly, I catch the giant man's wobbly face with a spinning kick, as if to sandwich it between the wall and the sole of my foot.

I rub the wall with a crack that looks like a spider's web entering a glass window, and finally the Giant is out of consciousness.

!

I am.

"...... memoria?

Then, as soon as I felt a hint of movement, I fired my back fist at the hint, but it was easily stopped.

I don't know when it appeared, but there stood Memoria, who had killed the other two within seconds of me and Giant's attack.

Don't just stand behind me.

"There was a man nearby who was about to attack you.

"...... sorry

No, it took us a while too.

Might be a vampire's particular strength.

The petite girl's memoria easily stops my hand and throws away my hand.

Just as she said, the demon man with the dagger was sprawled out right behind me.

"Is that your commander?

Yes, I was aware of Jiro's attacks earlier than the others.

I like the equipment.

And I'm not sure of the age of the demon, but his appearance suggests that he is of a certain age.

Memoria, the scar.

"?　Oh, it's all right, the knife caught me with my bare hands, it will heal quickly. If you want, let me suck your blood and I'll heal you right away.

Red drops of water dripping from Memoria's arm to the floor, I don't know if vampires are painful or if Memoria herself is painful, but she leaves it intact after it breaks.

Received with bare hands, replies as if it was nothing, but wasn't he quite the user when he penetrated the Giant's special diving suit?

Don't smoke too much, okay?

"...... I meant it as a joke,

Well, I did a double-timing in the heat of the moment, but my girlfriend was there for me. I'd put my body on the line if I could fix it.

Then I'll take you up on your offer. But then, at least let's do it this way instead of the neck.

All right.

Slip your hands out of your diving suit and turn your face to the position that Memoria is seeking.

Hmm.

It feels stinging, but it doesn't hurt naturally.

You're early.

It's an emergency, and the quality of your magic is good because it keeps circulating in your body, so the wounds heal as well.

"Is my blood a panacea?

Maybe for vampires.

For a few seconds, I didn't know how much blood had been sucked out of me, but the wound on my arm, which had been cut deep, was quickly closing up.

Convenient.

"Will you be a vampire?

Can you be?

"We're starting with the ghouls,

"No thanks.

Rather than feeling creepy, I have a stronger sense of convenience in this kind of fantasy space.

I'm strong, but I have no intention of becoming a zombie mob, so I'll decline the invitation of the memoria.

I'll get the equipment from the party room.

There is a master key in the janitor's office.

Take the key that exists in the position Suela told me it was in and tell Memoria.

Then I'll keep him in custody.

"Oh, please.

I'm going to leave the room.

I'm done with this one.

"Yes, then I

"Suela.

"Ha, hmm.

For me, I don't want to prioritize. Now it's the same.

Please consider the time and place. A reduction in memory's strength is something to be avoided. I, too, will keep my personal and professional lives separate.

I know, but it's my selfishness that makes me not want to keep indulging Suela like that.

Maybe, no, it's Suela, who has been watching your every move with her detection magic.

If anything went wrong, Suela was going to bring in support.

Then it wouldn't be surprising if she could hear the sequence of actions.

That's why her voice was slightly hard when she came out of the room.

It may be the worst thing I've ever heard, but that's just the nature of a man who doesn't want Suela to be frustrated.

Oh, you show me. You know that this is a time of emergency, right?

Well, you're missing out.

"A bottle of wine is all we need to make a move.

"You don't mind if I ask you to pay me back right now for helping you with your work, do you?

"Oh no, it's a snake, yes, yes, I'll let you off the hook.

Well, I'm going to get my equipment.

"Yes, Kaylee will keep an eye on you. I'll gather any information I can.

"Oh, don't strain yourself.

Now it's time to get to work.

Man to equipment, ready in three minutes.

"Oops.

I understand.

"Minami, lend Kitamiya your clothes, you had some spare equipment, right?

"There is, that is.

"Hey, when we're done, you guys are next. Can you give us a moment, please?

"Yes, that I do!

All right, get it over with.

Tonight is going to be a long one.
