If I had wanted to take a ride on a helicopter flying at night, I would have done so to enjoy the night view, but the reason why I took this ride was not romantic at all.
　A group of people wearing equipment that made me feel like a member of the special forces, all of them are related to the shrine, I was inwardly impressed by the amazing background of Japan.
　In the midst of such people, I opened the door on the side and looked down to see the shrine lit up at my feet, being careful not to fall off.
　It's the shrine that was broadcast on TV.
　The place is still lit up, but people are gathered in the center.
　Or should I say "gathered"?
　People can be seen gathered in the center and surrounded by people.
　They are overtly facing the police, but the police are out of touch.
　The cause is likely to be the bombs attached to the body of the surrounding crowd.
　It's so blatantly displayed that it can be seen from above.
　The helicopter I'm on now is said to be hidden in the dark of night, with noisy rotors, but has been rigged to be invisible.
　Kirie told me that technology for concealment is advancing every day.
　The helicopter with such a technique is waiting for the moment, circling in the sky as if to watch this scene until we move.

Well, we knew this day would come eventually, but it's taken us quite a while. But mom, it's nice to be on this big stage with my son.
You knew it was coming. Not anymore, but up until last year, I was just a regular office worker. I wouldn't be happy to see that day happen.

　I would have been nervous to see such a scene, even through the binoculars, but I'm not nervous at all, thanks to the fact that there's one person who is taking it easy.
　That's my mom.
　She's wearing gloves, protectors, night camouflage, and a mask and goggles to protect her face.
　I couldn't tell who it was from the figure, but I could tell from the outline of the body that it was a woman, and from the voice and content, I knew it was my mom.
　There are other people on board who are dressed similarly, but I'm the only one who acts so cheerful.
　I'm dressed similarly, but when I think about what we're going to do, I feel a little heavy hearted and talk less.
　You're looking forward to what you're going to do and remember that you're being blown up into the sky with your mother by your side.


"According to the information Kirie gathered, the opponents are all amateurs, a member of some religious group?　No suspicious parts in the background. The only thing that matters is the bomb. They're all in over their heads, but they're not allowed to kill. To top it all off, this plan. Kirie, are you telling us to go die?　They can win with the flick of a switch. We have to do all kinds of complicated things. Think about it a little more.
"I'm planning to act like you can do it. Are you going to tell me you can't do it?
You're getting more twisted.
"Since my sister left, I wasn't in a straightforward nurturing environment like you were, so yeah, it was someone else's fault.
You're getting pretty outspoken, aren't you? You used to hide behind me and cry. Huh, I wonder if your daughter will be like this too.
Yes, unlike your sister, I'm a trained miko. Yes, unlike your sister.

　Ha-ha, I thought this was a woman's battlefield, albeit with a giggle.
　The conference room in my office by the heliport.
　That's where my mother and I heard about the plan: ......

Kirie-san, I think it would be reckless to descend from the air without a parachute.

　I can't help but cringe at the content of what you're trying to say about which paratrooper it is.
　For once, I don't blame you for your mother's bitterness.
　But the quarrel can wait.
　I think I'm going to see the tiger and the dragon behind me.

Can't you?
I can't.
You can't?
Wait, why does my mother also take your side? What makes you think that untrained people can act like special forces?

　No, I can do it. Maybe.
　I've been doing some kind of training.
　And the point of the fight is not quite what I had in mind.
　The problem with this operation is the amount of bombs.
　We have a group of criminals surrounded by civilians, each with a bomb.
　On top of that, each of them has their own detonator.
　If you want to suppress them, I think the only way to do it is to make sure they are killed by sniping at them all at the same time.
　This may be the reason for such a reckless strategy: ......

"I understand you want to make them unkillable, but I'm going to shut down the power supply and drop them out of the air while you do it. ...... Mother, you think you can do this in thirteen seconds?

　It's wrong to show the dead in that place because of the effect it has on the seal.
　This is not an act of hypocrisy, which says that it is wrong to bring the dead to the shrine, but because negative emotions such as fear of death and resentment of resentment have a negative effect on the road to Hades.
　Although the shrine was built to seal the space, its purifying effect also has a limit.
　From what Kirie said, this shrine has two effects.
　One is to maintain the seal.
　And the other, this is the main effect.
　It functions like a water purifier to slowly normalize the land.
　This is why people say they feel something sacred when they walk through a shrine.
　But the purification cannot be filtered by suddenly injecting sludge water.
　The mud is not something that can control the negative thoughts of ordinary people who come to visit the temple for two years.
　And the shrine, which has taken too much negative mind, will reverse its function and become a place to collect negative mind.
　If that happens, this land will be open to the land of Hades.
　Troublesome, really troublesome.
　It must be stopped at all costs.
　Under her authority, she has requested cooperation from the government, but there are many organizations that are skeptical of her organization, and the Self-Defense Force cannot be mobilized.


　The officers are mobilizing, but they won't give you the green light to shoot anyway.
　Maybe with time, I could do it, but it would be too late.
　But I don't think such a crazy plan will work, I can only say that it won't.
　There are times when you have to say the impossible.

Well, with eight seconds more I can do it on my own.
You can do it. I mean, how can you do it?
You need to be able to do this to be able to go with Ichirō for his photo shoot.
Every time I think about it, where are your moms taking pictures?
"You want to hear it?　Then I'll take you there next time--
"No thanks.

　I mean, my mother is just a Hollywood-esque stunt performer.

It's great that you and your mother get along so well, but can we get back to the point?
"Yes, I'm sorry.

　Such useless talk is noted by Kirie-san.
　He honestly apologizes and gets back to the subject.
　Now, we return to the consequence that the story must be done, but is practically impossible.
　How to take it into the realm of the possible.

If you were wondering about Jiro's question, the Idaten no Tabi Shoes would solve it. That tool is a symbol of speed, and I thought it was suited to this case. Why don't you try it to break in and get used to it?
"Are you sure?
"Yes, you can't do it for a long time, but enough or 20 minutes is fine.

　I have a plan in mind.
　All that's left to do is execute it, a plan that is impossible at this point, but these shoes seem to make it possible.
　I'm skeptical.
　It can be done because they say it can be done, but that doesn't mean you can trust them immediately.
　That's why I'm going to try it.
　I thought the socks I got out of the box were too small for my feet, but they were a godsend.
　The size adjustment is automatic.
　Feeling the perfect fit, I put on my shoes and get out of the office, thinking that they are an amazing piece of work at this stage.
　The outside is connected to the heliport, which is indeed wide.
　At the nearest heliport, there is a stern helicopter and there is a lot of noise around it.

So, Kirie-san, how do I use this?

　But that's not the point now.
　What matters now is that we have this vast space.
　I'm going to try it just like Kirie told me to, but it takes some courage to do it in a small space.

Concentrate on your feet and release your strength as if you were untying a string, and you will naturally release your strength. "Focus on your feet and release the force as if you were untying a string. But be careful not to untie the string too much.
"untangle the strings

　The way Kirie said it is hard to imagine, but should I just open the faucet?
　So think and replace the image and focus on your feet.
　I've done a lot of work on the mineral tree to imagine the circulation of forces.
　There's nothing wrong with that.
　It's just that the location has changed from hands to feet, so all I have to do is connect my feet to my body.

...... is amazing. I didn't think I could draw strength from it so quickly and so cleanly.
That's my son. I can do this.

　That prediction seems to have come true.
　I can feel something strange and different from magic at my feet.
　Something that stretches from foot to shins.
　If magic is like life force, then what is this? Call it sunshine and warmth, if you will.
　It's just not the same thing.

"Then try running. It'll do just fine.
"Yes.

　Running slowly at first, with little resistance to using its power, and then gradually accelerating.
　From walking to sprinting, from sprinting to sprinting, and then to full speed.
　It's like changing gears in a manual car, adjusting the force you put into your legs to produce speed.

Sure, I could do that.

　Its speed range is far beyond what a human can hit.

What do you think of the tool?
"I can only say that ...... is amazing.

　You can achieve this level of physical prowess with just a flush.
　Even if it's a specialized tool for the act of running, it's still an unbeatable tool.
　I'm curious to see how well you can do with this tool if you use it to complete dungeons.

Of course. But I can say that Jiro-san is better than me, but it's no use saying that now. So, Jiro-san, is it possible to use that tool in the strategy I just mentioned?

　It's only in the realm of the imagination, it will never come true.
　I am here only as my mother's son.
　From Kirie's point of view, I'm an asset of good miscalculation.
　Your mother's son, Kirie-san, thought it was because my nephew happened to have an aptitude for tools and combat activities that he got a hand in this mission.
　It is because of my mother's recommendation that I am standing here.
　You can't let your sense of justice or lust get in the way.

Yeah. I think it's possible. I guess I'm just being realistic.



　All we have is an efficiency mindset to get the job done, and a standard for judging right and wrong to avoid making a deadly bad move.
　That's enough for now.
　You're dealing with a scoundrel, you have to be tough on him, but not merciless.

Now, let's go through the formalities. We'll have the equipment ready for you in the other room. Change into it.

　The time limit is ticking away.
　I will do my part, hoping that the power of stepping into the realm of the inhuman will help.


　So I thought, and here I am.
　You finish your preparations and soar into the sky for a moment.
　I quietly look at the watch on my right arm and see that there are less than five minutes left until the mission begins.

Well, here we are.

　Operations in modern Japan begins.
　A slight smile is now a habit.
　It is half instinct to copulate the excitement before battle.
　And then, as if against them, you cool your head.
　And so I finished preparing to fight.



　Word of the Day
　It's up to you to decide what your limits are and whether or not you will exceed them.
