'Yee-hawoy!　Kittah!

　Yuto was bursting with joy when he returned to his tent... or rather, home from the part-time job he went to afterwards after finishing his school classes. That's because the first request from the World Ability Agency, which he had been waiting for, had finally arrived.
　An envelope containing a request form from the agency to Yuto had been placed in a rusty post.

'I've been waiting for this day, this time!　This is our life!　I'm going to get some more work and I'm going to end up living in a tent!　Nunm!　Nmmm!

　Yuto kissed the letter containing the request that arrived, many times.

''Well, what's the request, what do you think?　Hmmm~

　Yuto carefully opened the letter and found several folded sheets of paper inside, which contained the details of the request and the success fee and other information. First of all, when I looked at the first sheet, it contained the contract for this time, and the reward for success was also listed.

'Huh!　That's a heck of a lot of money!　This is such a good reward!

　Yuuto looks at the contract with his hands trembling as he looks at it as if he is devouring it, bringing it so close that it almost lands on his face.

''Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. I can restore the house in this one job.......so much for a rank D?''

　Yuto's tension almost shakes out of his safe zone with surprise and joy, but he continues to read that request, which is described from two sheets.

''Huh?　Eeeeee!　Shitenji-san and Marion-san?　Helping you two?

　It said that he was to join Shitenji Mizuho and Marion Mia Shurian, who were already on a mission, and take up the task.
　Yuto's head cooled down at once and his face turned serious. He hadn't met or contacted Mizuho and Marion since that rookie rank exam, of course. He didn't even know their contact information before that.
　To Yuto, they were the only people who had a strong relationship with him during that exam. Each of the events with Mizuho and Marion that happened during the exam were memorable to Yuto. So, Masato had always wanted to meet those two again someday.

　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what to expect when you're in a situation where you're not sure what to expect.
　However, in that battle with Gaston, Yuto broke his own seal, which he had been warned against, and repelled Gaston with the powerful power of simultaneously activating his magic and spiritual power. At that time, he made the two girls lose their minds so as not to involve them with this power.
　

''.........You don't remember, do you?

　Yuto mutters sadly.
　However, Yuto thinks of his classmates and friends who were important to him... his childhood friend Mari, his best friend Ichigo, and Shizuka, who was also connected to him because she was Mari's best friend.
　These friends had forgotten themselves in the past.
　But this time, they hadn't forgotten.
　It was because they continued to be involved in the process of starting over from scratch again and again, even when Yuto was forgotten, they connected again, and this time they remembered without being affected by the repercussions of this power.

　
　That is, as far as Masato knows, apart from his immediate family, there are only two people including Mari.
　Moreover, the person who embodied this many times in front of Yuto's eyes was the girl he met in the demon world beyond through the Demon Laird's Grotto.......Lieselotte.

　However, Lieselotte was no longer in this world.
　When Yuto closed his eyes, irreplaceable memories of her ran through his mind.
　Because of her, he was able to survive even if he had to deal with the demon gods that were rampant in that demon world.
　Because she was there, she protected her country and her people in the demon world.
　Because of her, she was able to repel the demon gods that reigned in the demon world.
　Because of her, Yuto is able to do this now.
　Because she said it was okay to do so, Masato could move forward.
　And maybe it was because of her that he could see this now.

'Lise, I won't give up. No matter how many times I'm forgotten, I'm going to connect with these feel-good people again.

　Yuto would see Mizuho and Marion again. And let them remember him again.

'Because I'd like to be a friend to those two.

　Yuto opens his eyes, alive.

''Yes!''

　Yuto nodded to one person and continued reading the letter requesting from the agency, and then started on the second one. Then a bundle of several sheets of paper of different sizes slipped out of the letter and fell to the side.
　What is it?　Yuto thought and took it away.

''Eh!　Is this money?　And it's foreign!　What do you mean?

　Yuto looked at the second one and saw that it was an airline ticket with a QR code.

''Seriously...?''

　And if you look at the third one, it details this request.

'Boooooooo!'

　Yuto reads the contents and blurts out.

'I don't know of any country that is a millennial!　My job as an escort........that's fine.......but the time period is a week.......hmmmmmmm?

　Yuto looked pale, and as expected........but if you think about it, it doesn't matter where or how long the agency works. It's something you receive a request from the other party and fulfill it. This time, it was probably just that he happened to be in a foreign country and it was for a week.
　The image of the super cool beauty Takano Mirei, the school's homeroom teacher, comes to mind. The beauty in Yuto's head was about five meters tall, and she grabbed Yuto's head with one hand.

"You are a student of our high school and yet you are still absent from school for a part-time job?"

No, no, sir!　Here, this is for life and home repair...

"And besides!　One week, hmmm!"

Heeeeeee!

　Yuto huffed.

''Oh no, this is bad!　He's killing me!　I don't know what to do~

　Yuto thinks about refusing this request, though it's a shame. Because life is even more spared.
　When he read the third page in a cold sweat, there were words spelled out in large font.

''Because I will not accept refusal. If you refuse, I will strip you of your rank by the branch chief.

　And at the bottom of it was a small handwritten note that read

I'm sorry, Mr. Du Du, but I'll buy you dinner next time to apologize. Next time, I'll buy you a meal to make up for it by Kakitei.

　But for all of Shima's apologies, her text was surrounded by pink and yellow hearts drawn in highlighter pen. There was something about it that conveyed a sense of ubiquity firmly.

'What the hell!　Here!

　Yuto took Shima's as a tatty joke, but this was all over the place. As he tried to think of a way to make it work, time passed without any good ideas, and he couldn't think of anything else to do.
　As his frustration filled him, he thought of the faces of his friends. Normally, even the faces of immediate family members would come to mind here, but that was not an option for Masato.
　My father is still in the magical world. I've even thought about that grandfather's face, if possible, I'd like to forget it forever. It's a good thing that you're able to have a good time with them.

''That's right!　Let's talk to Mari and the others about it.

　It was something that he could see that nothing was going to be solved no matter what he thought.......but Masato had nothing else to put his trust in anymore....
