When you wake up in the morning to find Memoria sleeping next to you, you're so happy that even in your sleep-dazed mind you can see it.

Maybe it's because Memoria is a vampire, or maybe it's just her personal constitution, but she's not very strong in her sleep.

So when I stroke her cheek like this, she brushes against me like a cat.

It's my own personal privilege to relieve the stress of yesterday.

Suela is so steady that you don't often see her sleeping face.

Instead, she often wakes me up to be watched.

And as for Memoria's pattern, when this happens, you have to take your time to wake her up.

If you shake her, she'll open her eyes, but it will take a long time for her head to wake up.

You can either wait for her to spontaneously awaken or give her a cup of coffee or something to drink to slowly wake her up.

I asked her once what she would do if she was attacked.

Memoria at that time was calm.

"Reflexive eradication by instinct.

and told me about the automatic defense mechanism against killing.

It would be awful to be killed in your sleep, I thought with a wry smile at the time.

Well, so much for escaping reality to heal like this.

It's a good thing I woke up just as the sun was beginning to emerge from the clouds.

Being up early means I have more time to spend.

Just enough time to get the situation in order before the memory is awakened.

Well, what should we think about first?

The situation is a coalition of theocracies Trice and Eclair kingdoms that summoned the brave versus the empire that used the body of the past demon king to create a golem, plus the first demon king (the ghost) who became a disaster before being drawn into the war.

It's a three-way street.

Common sense tells me that I can't solve this situation or make it better.

There's no need for it to begin with.

And I don't have that sense of justice that says "people are in trouble.

Then it's only fair to consider the next best thing, to stay out of this situation.

The best thing to do would be to cross the world and return to Japan, but it would take some time to do it since some idiot summoned a hero.

Then naturally, the choice naturally settles on better than the best.

Better to hide out in a safe place in a city or facility that can transfer for homecoming, which would be better.

The berths will make the arrangements for that.

And we have Memoria, which is probably not such a bad choice.

But.

Is that okay?

Can you just go with the flow and let everything happen?

Doubts start to creep into my head, asking me if I'm sure.

Something akin to impatience fills me, wondering if there is anything I can do.

No, you don't,

Deny as if swallowing your emotions and rethink the roots of this feeling.

Then you will see naturally.

The order was reversed, or was it a different position?

It's not what you can do, it's what you want to do.

What are you doing passively?

The idea prompted me to take a thought one step further and my head began to spin so straightforwardly that I thought it was just a matter of time before I realized what I was spinning.

...... Oh, that's how it works.

This time the emotions fell into place as if to reaffirm that this is what it feels like to be aware.

It's like you took a wrong first step in an unfamiliar environment.

Okay, the thinking is good, this time it's right.

Let's think about what I want to do in this situation, me as a member of society and me as an individual.

The first thing that comes to mind is to benefit the company, as a working man.

The first thing on my mind is the safety of Memoria and my safety.

Is it possible to combine these two ideas?

Seems difficult but not impossible.

Not impossible, but difficult.

What is in the best interest of the company in this situation?

The decline in the country's military might would be an obvious benefit.

Is it possible for an individual?

On the subject of possible or impossible

"What can you do?

Ignore the individual and think about what is impossible at first.

The first thing that comes to mind is to think of fighting against an army or guerrilla warfare, but you laugh it off with your nose.

There is no way you can do such a thing.

If we were to do such a thing, we would certainly have to rely on the strength of the verse.

I can see that I can stop them, and I don't have that kind of authority.

Next, I'll have to figure out a dark move, but I have no political position or organizational connections that would allow me to run the show behind the scenes.

Impossible, reckless, reckless

Those three words tell me on the surface and on the reverse side that there's no room for me to barge in.

Be still and don't do anything, my thoughts of an individual who is trying to drag Memoria into the mix are prompting this thought to end.

...... do what you want with it.

"You're awake?

No, it hasn't happened yet.

I hear a voice gently pushing my thoughts that are about to hit such a plateau.

The top half of Memoria's body wakes up with her head bobbing and shaking, and it seems that she is not yet fully awake as she claims.

You can find evidence of this with your eyes half-open, as if you are going to row the boat dazedly into the world of second sleep if you are not careful.

As if the afterglow of yesterday is still there, she covers herself with a sheet and picks up my words and wakes up.

If you can do anything about it, please consult with me. Jiro seemed somewhat cramped since yesterday. No, that's not true. Since you came here you have been trying to force yourself to conform to our rules ...... and since that time you have been trying to fit the mold.

You're gradually awakening your mind as you speak.

The pace of your tone of voice is starting to become more normal.

So, Jiro-san was about to do something, did you have an idea?

...... that's totally . If it's a story, this is where a helpful character would come and give you a plan.

I'm stuck.

If you smile to tell her that, Memoria will not answer.

......

He just stared into my eyes.

"I'm here to help you with your character.

A slightly sulky tone came out of Memoria's mouth, which held silence for only a few seconds.

Answer her, imploring her to help.

You're a heroine.

"...... is concurrently.

Well, then, will you listen to me?

Yes.

The sulky tone of my response, satisfied but also slightly dissatisfied, will not be fixed, and I'll continue with the conversation while patting my head to see if I'm right.

In fact, I can do this at the same time.

I'll take you at your word.

I wasn't thinking about what I could do, I was thinking about what I wanted to do.

"Yes.

"I am unhappy with the present situation, but the war cannot be stopped by individuals. The behind-the-scenes maneuvering is not an option for me either. I've been going in circles there. The trouble my actions cause for the company and the trouble you're in with them.

It's a feeling I had while working at my last company.

Don't lose money for the company.

Don't bother your co-workers.

Do as your boss says.

They say we're a cog in the wheel of society.

The gears themselves have no power, they just do their job.

If they don't, the load will either shatter the gears or crush the gears around them.

There is no freedom.

Once you question it, you know it's common sense, and if you don't like it, you can quit or go into high office.

There were two choices.

The limited choices that were screwed together, and I'm torn between whether or not to resist now.

I see. So, shall I tell Jiro-san about our common sense?

Memoria had already returned to her usual tone as she conveyed her feelings.

With that firm, emotionless but sure voice she conveys.

The demon king's army doesn't care about the process as long as you can achieve the result. Everything is your responsibility, and that's how you become a cog.

Squeezing my hand, she is seriously trying to tell me.

"That's it. So I'll push you back. This isn't trouble, this is a chance. You've got to outsmart me here, or you won't work for us, okay?

"...........

Ah, yes, this is not that company.

It's a company run by the otherworldly demon king's army.

There's no way I can apply my common sense to such a company.

That's how much of an inconspicuous person I am.

It's true that Memoria was right...I did fit the mold.

I should at least break the mold here.

My hesitation is cleared.

I like the happy Jiro's look.

"I didn't think I had a very good laugh now, did I?

But the atmosphere is better here than it was before.

"I have a master's laugh,

Regret by doing rather than regretting not doing.

As those words slip into your head, something is off and the foundation is being built.

And in the process of wondering if the plan is doable, you realize the possibility that perhaps you can make a crack in the very foundation of this war.

Memoria.

"Yes.

I got an idea.

Any amount.

We're still in the planning stages, but we're working out the contents in consultation with Memoria to see if it's possible.

The more I think about it, the more I think it's definitely not the content of a business trip.

"It looks fun for that, doesn't it?

Yeah, there's no denying it. After all, I'm taking it out on my country, I'm the one who wants justice.

If I'm going to tell you what's on my mind, you're going to have to pay for interfering with my work?

And while we were discussing it, we decided it was better to act than to continue talking, so we quickly finished our preparations and headed to the tavern where our berths would be waiting for us to have breakfast.

The anxiousness of yesterday has been replaced by a smile on my face.

Oh, you had fun last night, didn't you?

Don't listen to the obvious, it's not very stylish.

That's the way it works over here. Wait for me, I'll bring you your food.

Perhaps sensing that my mood was different from yesterday, Barth disappeared into the kitchen behind the counter without another word.

And whether it was because they had originally prepared it or because the timing was good, it came out early.

You see, the city's quality is going down and this is all we have.

You're better off for it.

Right, so here's what's going to happen.

"Oh, wait, Barth, about that,

I put a glass of water with a breakfast sandwich and a glass of water at the same time that Bath comes up with plans for the future, but I'll be waiting for it.

Memoria is eating her breakfast in silence, but she doesn't mind.

We'll head to Trice.

What?

Barth gives me a look of dismay as he opens his mouth just enough to say, "This guy is out of the blue.

"So, we're going to Trice.

"No, no, no, no, no!　What the hell are you talking about!　Are you insane?　Did you decide to take some weird pills yesterday?　No, or do you feel sorry for the summoned heroes?

"I thought you'd say that.

"You're it!　If I told you that I was about to head to the home base of a country at war, you'd either be crazy or a righteous hypocrite like some a**h*le.

It's refreshing to be so sure.

"What the hell are you talking about?　Listen, this is not a sweet world like the one you're in!　If only we could stop the war with charity!

Who said anything about doing charity work?

"Huh.

I know you're worried about me, and the fact that you're telling me this shows that you're a good guy.

I know he's a cold-hearted person, but he's a good guy at heart.

But it's a shame that you think I'm a righteous idiot.

I almost tell Barth to get out of here, but then I stop him.

"Before you say it, this is very close to a gamble, but I'm going to tell you now that there's a good chance you'll win.

Here's the thing--

"Come on, let's talk business, Bath.

"Business?

--It's time to work.

And when it comes to work, Barth is on board.

He narrows his eyes with a dubious expression and urges me to move on.

"More specifically, it's about career.

"Oh?　What's this, you want to make a name for yourself by riding into a war?　Then I'm going to say no. Who the hell would want to be in that hellhole?

No, it's a gamble, but I'm talking about a much shorter career path.

"I don't see what you're talking about. ...... What the hell were you thinking?

I'll probably be smiling like Instructor Kio or Instructor Fusio.

Enjoy the pinch and control your fear.

Enjoy the pinch and control your fears. Doping in the brain is a good thing, because at the last minute you can still smile and think it's fun.

Kidnap the Brave

What?

"When we kidnap a brave man, we don't just put a burlap sack over his face and tie him up with a rope and carry him back to the other side of the world with our own feet, to be precise.

"......

Think you're dreaming in your sleep?

In Barth's eyes, there was a ratio of about eight to two doubts that it would be ideal if it could be done instead of half-believing.

Do you think it's impossible?

...... Oh, I don't think that bet will work.

I think so, too.

"Hey, then

"Usually.

He interrupts Barth, who is about to yell at him for being a joke, and adds, "You've got to be kidding me.

But when you combine this situation with certain conditions, you have a chance to win.

"Conditions?

"Yeah, I'll need you guys to check this out, but I'm guessing from the records that the summons was summoned by a student, a child between the ages of fifteen and seventeen. I don't know if it's a coincidence or if they're going for that kind of adolescent period, but that's okay. The point is that children at this age are not susceptible to the word special. Unless you've been brought up in a very special environment, you can't read the backstory. That's the key to this win.

"...... you, what are you thinking about?

"It's a bit of persuasion,

I noticed that the face of Bath, who could not see what I was saying, had changed to a look of skepticism.

I talked to that berth about the plan I'd finalized with Memoria.

And as the story progressed, the doubt turned into a wry smile, and in the end, the verse that had been wondering at first was

"You're an idiot, right?

"There's no denying the stupid part. What do you say, do you need a ride?

"There's a long way to go to make a bad bet. There are holes. The odds of failure are higher. But it's fun.

Barth laughs and claps me on the shoulder.

"Great, at worst you'll have your life to deal with. Low risk, high return.

Hey, I'm going to need your guys to help me lower that risk.

"I know, well, I thought it was weird when I first heard about humans dating demons, but you're an idiot.

Promoted from weird to stupid at last? Demotion? I did.

Barth keeps slapping my shoulder as if he liked it more than he liked the sound of my laughter.

Okay, I'm all for this kind of talk. We're going to have to get money for this place. I'll call on anyone who can help me.

Oh, the festival must be a lot of fun.

Dude!

After the briefing, the cooperation of the berths was established.

We have a pretty good chance of winning.

Now it's just a matter of time.

It looks like you were able to convince them successfully.

Oh, I'm sure you'll be able to handle this.

We have to make arrangements for supplies, but it's a race against time from here.

I ate my breakfast first and watched Bath walk away, talking to Memoria, who was watching from the sidelines.

For me, the first obstacle is to break through.

I've heard many stories of people planning but failing to lay the groundwork. Without good preparation, this plan will be a pipe dream.

Yeah, it's a race against time to be on time.

There are several points of divergence.

This exchange with Bath is just one of them.

We have to get the results out there so the supervisors don't get mad at us.

It's up to you, Jiro.

The die is cast, and we can't stop until the results are in.

If we don't sit back and wait, we don't know what those supervisors and instructors will say and do to us.

It's going to be busy from here.

Well, let's do this.

I had the biggest job (gambling) of my life ever.

"A game is like a job in that you have to have the right conditions to win before you can fight. The difference between success and failure is in the laying the groundwork.
