Action must be taken quickly, but not without thinking.
In order to take the best action from the given information, your body quickly puts on the magic tools that were prepared separately from your thoughts and finishes preparing to go out one by one.
On the contrary, your brain is organizing the current situation and deciding on your future actions.
This trip was a really bad time for me.
The only fun I had was a coffee shop date with Memoria.
It's the same with this one.
A divine weapon, an object that would be named early in an RPG or something like that and available at the end of the game.
If you're going to make one that bears the name of a god, you'll certainly need the right materials.
But I would tell you out loud not to involve the inhabitants of another world.
Do you think it's okay if we don't find out?
Then I'm going to punch whoever planned this with all my might.
But I didn't think things were this complicated after getting into this situation myself.
But once I opened the box and saw what was inside, he told me that this country's plan was unstoppable and that it was already impossible to negotiate.
In retrospect, it was a waste of time to propose the return of the students to the country, but the other party's intentions went forward in the meantime, as if it was a push for the sake of the warmongering.
Even if Japan is the enemy, they have the audacity to say that the weapon will not be a problem.
No one has any idea how powerful the weapon will be, but it will have enough influence to determine the fate of this war.
I'm not as strong as the heroes, but I have more than enough magic to make a difference.
So he's a candidate for a weapon.
If I go to the bargaining table without thinking, I'll show up with my magic and mineral tree.
I've also got a tricking method of removing my face, so a strong-arm strategy would be a good option.
This is a reminder that we've passed the watershed in order to keep things quiet.
If we are going to return the brave men and women, some measures should be taken, such as stopping the production of weapons.
But, on the contrary, Amelia was caught and disappeared from the public eye.

Oh, well, we'll see.

Let's be positive rather than pessimistic about a bad trend.
The words are easy to say, but in your head, you make calculations and select plans as if you were playing the solo ban.
Even as you do this, your leather shoes are tapping on the cobblestone pavement, echoing through the streets of the morning market.
Now, let's make the first move.

Welcome, are you wearing your usual red ones?
"No, I'm not in the mood for that today, just a yellow and sour one, please.
"Oh, you're a connoisseur, too,
I've heard it's a great way to wake up today.
How many do you have?
I'd like to say all of them, but it's too much. I'll have two.
Yeah, three coppers. Yeah, we'll have a new one this afternoon. Come and buy some if you want, brother.
"Yeah, I'll stop by.

If you stop and look at the items on display, the shopkeeper will offer you an apple-like fruit as if he or she knows what you want.
This nondescript stall is run by a liaison officer belonging to the demon king's army.
The demon tribe isn't the only one belonging to the demon king's army.
Although they're few in total, there are still people like Vance who belong to the demon king's army.
If you hide a tree, you'll find it in the woods; if you hide a man, you'll find it in a man.
Most of these people are more of an agent than an asset.
There are a few exceptions, but most have infiltrated the enemy's territory.
If it's their home base, it's strange that they haven't allowed a man or two to infiltrate that city.
Well, this is the second time we've met and talked, the first time was when Vance gave me the code to announce my face, and the second time since it indicates this action.
This conversation isn't just a conversation either.
The red fruit, as usual, is a standing order.
I'm not in the mood for it is a behavioral change command.
Yellow and sour is one of the predetermined actions.
The other two signs are red and green.
Red is an assault, green is a retreat, and yellow is a kidnapping.
Check if the clerk's word "street" is in line with the plan, and affirm it with the word "mood".
The word "wake up" refers to the student who is being promoted to a hero, and the next few words are how many people will be taken.
I answered all of them, meaning all of them.
If that is not possible, then the instruction to do as much as possible is not currently worth the effort to expose the organization's information.
And lastly, new fruit means reinforcements.
This morning's mice were under the care of our liaison, which means that Memoria has received a call to action.
I walk down the morning market street toward the church with the fruit in hand.

It's so exciting to be awake.

Peel and eat the fruit, which is slightly sweeter than a lemon, while walking.
To be honest, one piece of fruit is both eye-opening and satisfying.
So I'm not going to eat another one, and I'm not going to eat it.

I'll do it boy.
Are you sure?
Yeah, I'm more awake than I thought I would be.
"Yeah! Thank you.



You give the fruit to a vagrant on the side of the road as if you had found it by chance, making a thoughtful gesture as to what to do.
Then you casually hold a piece of paper in your hand and let the child run into the alleyway.

There are two of them?

I didn't think I'd be able to keep a complete eye on him, but it's not as successful as I thought.
So one of them went to track the boy, and the other one went to call him.
Well, we should expect them to be biting the dust after all.
We want to be watched every step of the way, and we want to get rid of any restrictions.
The boy was also a disrupter that our liaison had prepared.
Of course, we were prepared to disperse him so that there would be no danger.
And this will let them know I was about to give them some information.

Next time.

I have two or three more moves to make before we get to the church.
It's like a spy movie for a change," he said with a wry smile, as he struggled to get the code information into his head, and took one action after another, usually interspersed with shopping at the store.
Meanwhile, the guards behind you are changing personnel incessantly.
Thinking it must be tough, I finally glance at a beggar sitting on the side of the road.
Leaning against the wall, he doesn't try to do anything, just hangs a board around his neck asking for money.

"Shiro, got it.

Checking the color of the cord around its neck, you murmur to yourself so that no one can hear you and know that you are ready for action in the city.
Nothing was just waiting in the inn for nothing.
I was prepared to move when something happened.
That's why we can act so quickly.
I've taken all the necessary steps.
I tightened my loose tie and left for the church.
I was already planning to be near the church, so it shouldn't take long.
Five minutes' walk and you'll see the square and another five minutes' walk and you'll be at the entrance to the cathedral.

Hi, bishop. No, is the priest home?
"You

I feel like I'm entering a demon king's castle.
For now, you're going to talk to the Demon King's Senators?
If you call out to the soldier standing at the entrance, being careful not to say anything joking, you'll be notified.
The soldier's eyes are sharp for a moment, and then he goes to check it out, saying that nothing happened and waiting for a moment.
This time the soldier led you through without much of a wait.

I see you have come from there...is something wrong?
"I'm sorry to disturb you, but I haven't heard from you in a long time, and I'm just wondering what your progress is. Also, I've heard some disturbing stories and I'm here to check on them.
"We are sorry to keep you waiting. But it's a matter of national importance, and we can't come to a conclusion so soon. Please understand that. So what is this disturbance you're referring to, Jirou-dono?

And this raccoon father is still the same.
The bishop appeared in the same room as before, accompanied by a priest.
Even though I asked him to return the brave man quickly, he avoided saying that he was ready too.
This is to be expected, perhaps, but if you ask to see the brave man, he'll just duck, saying he'll adjust his schedule.
I'm not sure if it's a bad idea to interrupt negotiations at that time, but it's not the best idea.
A roll of the dice is a half-hearted attempt at a roll of the dice.
It would have been nice if it was even a slightly better eye, but the result is worse.

"Yes, we've done some advance work on our way across the world, and I've heard brief glimpses of it.

The flow must be broken.
The preamble is a waste of time.
I'll get right to it.

"May I ask how you would use the mineral tree in this world on the eve of war?
"...... Where did you get that story?

The mood of the bishop has changed.
It's a natural response to be asked who put you up to this or where the source of the information is.
I tried poking around in the bushes, but only a rustling of the bushes told me that there was something there.
Was it a raccoon, a snake, or something more vicious?

"Well, don't you think that's not enough for me to know?
Haha, then I can't tell you the story, either, due to state secrets.
Well, if it's a state secret, it has to be.
"Yeah, sorry.

While I didn't know what would come out, the word of denial didn't come out for now.
Well, they think the country is working behind my back.
Maybe they thought I would back it up first.

You can't blame her for that. ......, but normally I would just say, "Okay, I understand" and go with that. I'm afraid that's not the case this time.
"...... But there's nothing I can say, is there?

This time I'm going to be as persistent as a snake.

Well, then I'll cut to the chase. As a matter of fact, I have a mineral tree.

The bishop shows no change in his words.
But sometimes it can be an eloquent word to say that there is no change.
Monsignor, you should be quiet but you should be more careful about the color of your eyes.
Silence is neither a negative nor a positive thing.
But you can vague it with words, but the mood in your eyes speaks for itself.
My guess is correct.

"The mineral tree has several characteristics. One, it grows by gaining magical power. Two, it grows as a weapon if you treat it as such.

The bishop's eyes grow stronger as he counts, one finger at a time.

"And whether the mineral tree will grow dull or become a great sword, we do not know. It is said that we still don't know how to grow them. But there is an exception. Don't you know about that exception, Monsignor?



The air in this room is no longer unsettled.
I'm checking to see if you know, but I've already determined that you do.

Third, the mineral tree can be given a high density of magical power to create powerful weapons. Now we have a brave man and a mineral tree. Now do you understand what I'm trying to say?

You speak up at once without giving him a chance to open his mouth.
You can't make me say a negative.

"I'll ask again. What are you doing with the mineral tree here 'underground'?

As soon as I said these words I thought I had hit a switch.
The door is opened wildly and a knight comes in.
I was expecting this result, but now I'm getting nervous.
You will be able to find out why an ex-employee is doing this, but at the same time, you're enjoying this tension, which is why you're in the industry.

Just so you know, do you understand the implications of this action?
"Of course.
"I see.

What is this confidence when you confidently went up against an unknown, albeit otherworldly, country?
I reach for my pocket and the knight reacts.

"Here's a cigarette.

I don't care about it, I just take one out of the box and light it with a lighter.
That gives one the idea that you're not taking anything for granted.

I'll tell you the truth. Do you understand what that action means?
Yeah, I know. I'm sure in your mind's eye, you're going to use me as face-peeling material, and after you're replaced, you're going to release the right information, and then you'll be able to make diplomatic relations.
You are still a danger to yourself. Get him!
"Let me at least have a smoke.

That's right.
I'm sure there's a little bit of joy if this is the correct answer to the quiz, but I've experienced firsthand how troublesome it can be to get information about the state, so I don't have an ounce of joy.
You're going to be able to find out the best way to make your life easier.
If I'm caught, as the bishop wanted, there will be one person to take my place.
That's where my connection to the demon king's army will be revealed.
Wow! The director will kill me if I fail.
But I'm not going to fail.

Hey, bishop.

You'll be able to punch the knight away with a cigarette in your mouth.
Compared to the instructors, their slow movements are only strong enough to handle with ease.
After provoking you for a long time, you've finally gotten your hands on it.
Now here's the moment of truth.
I just want to get this over with and go back to Japan.

Are you ready to be crushed?

To do so, let's break the foundation of this plan first.
