For a while, Mitsunaga-kun and I talked about this world and the original world, Aoi and Yona for a while, and exactly about an hour later, Mitsunaga-kun took out his pocket watch, checked the time and then stood up.

'..........I'm sorry, Miyama-san. I should be getting ready to........
Oh, I'm sorry, have I been busy?
'No, it wasn't, and it was fun... but if we talk about it any more, we won't have time to study...'
...Studying?

　I nodded my head when I heard the word study coming out of Mitsunaga's mouth.
　What is the study of?　It doesn't sound like it's a high school thing, and from the reaction, I'm sure it's pretty important, but...

Yes, Aquarius it's about the city's specialties and history.
Yeah?　Does that mean, perhaps, that you're learning to play the hero?
Yes, sir.
Do you do that kind of thing when you play a hero?

　I knew that the brave actor would be making a pilgrimage to different parts of the world and I had heard that he would be giving a speech, but............................but this was the first time I had ever heard of him even studying the specialties and history of each region.

''It's not obligatory... but if you don't study them, you'll be in trouble at the 'meeting'.
A meeting?
''Yes. The role of the brave man is always to meet with the mayor or lord of each town before his speech. The unspoken understanding of that meeting is that they don't ask us about the world we were in, so they inevitably ask us what we think of the city.
Well that sounds like a lot of work.

　Every time you visit a place, having a meeting with an authority figure in that area seems like a lot of work just to listen to it.
　

''........Indeed, to be honest, there's quite a bit of pressure on me mentally. There are a lot of long-lived races in this world, and above all, I have a great hero, the first hero, and 100 seniors in front of me......I can compare them no matter how I do it.
....
"The brave ones will have a free day in town. I think of it as a time for study.
Well, does that mean we're going to stay in one city for three days?
........That seems to vary quite a bit depending on the role of the hero. I want to visit as many cities as possible, so I have my schedule packed, though.

　I'm going to move to the city, study one day, meet with the powers that be the next day, and then the next day I'm going to give a speech and move to another city... It's an overcrowded schedule, but apparently that's what Mitsunaga-kun wants and that's what he's doing.
　What can I say, it's amazing........Mitsunaga-kun, you're a hard worker.

The first thing that comes to mind is the fact that you can do as much as you want if you want to make it easy. As I said before, studying isn't forced at all. It's just that I study on my own in my free time.
Isn't it hard?
''It would be a lie if I said it wasn't hard, but.......the three nations of the human world take turns summoning heroes. And no matter what, I can be compared to the previous heroic role... even if I don't say it, if people think that I'm not good enough to play the heroic role this year, I feel bad for Princess Cattleya and the people of the Kingdom of Symphonia who have been so good to me, so I'll do my best as much as I can. Sir!
I see... what can I say, I think it's honestly amazing.
But it's very fulfilling for me right now. It's not easy to study, but knowing that people in this area live like this, it's fun to talk to them... and Princess Cattleya will be happy to see you.

　The expression on Mitsunaga's face as he said this had a certain strength to it...I thought that this must be his true form.
　It may have been distorted by many things, but the young man named Masayoshi Mitsunaga is probably a serious and hard-working boy.
　I must learn from him........

Well good luck and let me know if there's anything I can do to help you.
'Thank you. It's very reassuring.
I'm sorry. I got held up.
'No, it was nice talking to you, Miyama-san... Oh, if you have time tomorrow afternoon or so, could we meet again?　Princess Cattleya wanted to see you, too.
'Yeah, of course you're good then, is this a good place to be?'
Yes, I'll be available at 2 p.m. if you want to come by then.
Yes, sir.
Now, if you'll excuse me!

　After promising to meet again tomorrow, Mitsunaga left with a bright smile on his face.
　I'm sure you'll be able to see that he's grown up with a much bigger and more muscular appearance than the last time I saw him.

　I'm sure I'm not the only one who understands that people can change. I think that Mitsunaga has met an important person in this world and has grown up a lot. Is that why?　As much as I had no original preconceptions, from my point of view, Mitsunaga-kun--he was a serious hard worker.









　In the spacious and luxurious rooms prepared in the royal castle of the Hydra Kingdom, there was the figure of Shea and Hart, who had finished their congress.


It can't be helped. I have to fix it, and it's going to take me a few days to do it.

....

　Recalling Fate's appearance today, which can be rightly called God-like, and seeing Heart sighing about the gap between him and his normal self, Shea opens his mouth after a few moments of silence.


'What?　Yes, it's not every day that a lowly god like me has the opportunity to speak to you directly. This is the first time I've ever had a direct conversation without an intermediary of a senior god.......so what is it?
Well let me tell you a little something about the God of Fate.
...What?

　Sia slowly turns her gaze towards Hart while announcing in a quiet but crystal clear voice.

''.........The God of Fate is the first god race created by Lord Shalovanal. In other words, it can be said that the God of Fate is the closest being to Lord Shalovanal among the divine race. Including its, nature........
"Properties?
''Yes, let's start with a premise... the God of Destiny only thinks of the god race under him, the human race, and the demon race as little more than 'rocks on the side of the road'.
...What?

　Shea's words are spoken in a matter-of-fact manner, and Hart, hearing them, also listens while his expression turns serious.

It's a good thing that you are able to move most of the things in this world as you wish.......they are no different than dolls and are only worth that much. They are nothing more than 'trivial existence'.
....
"....Just remember this.
....








　
　What shall we do for dinner?　As I was sitting on the couch in the large room thinking about what was going on I heard a knock at the door.

''Yes~''

　I hear the sound and walk towards the door.
　It seems that this inn is currently reserved for private parties, so the only people who visit are the inn's employees or Fate-san and others.
　And the magic power that comes through the sensory magic from outside the door is undoubtedly Fate's, and I opened the door without any particular warning.

''Kai-chan!
Phew!

　And the moment I opened the door, Fate-san rushed in with the speed of a bullet.
　One important thing here........Fate-san is very petite, and Fate-san's head, as she rushed in, hit my pigeon tail critically, as if she was sucked in.
　It's as if all the air in my lungs is spat out, and I scream in agony from the impact.

''Kai-chan!　I'm tired!　A job well done!　Heal me - spoil me!
"Gee-ho, gee-ho, Fayt-san........hey, get away from me.......
Oh no!　Now I'm just trying to replenish the missing chi-chan ingredient!
"Geez........I don't know what that means........
