Kage no Eiyuu no Nichijou-tan - 30 Thirty Tales
When Elisia and I broke up, I headed toward the royal castle, which can be found in the heart of the king’s capital.
Meet someone you know on the road.
“What’s ‘work’? Nobody gave you a directive like that?
A woman with thin red hair, wrapped in a black military uniform – Chris said in a frivolous manner.
Apparently, he was eavesdropping on me and Elysia.
They’re not supposed to be wearing bugs… well, the people at the station do. I can think of any method, etc. There was a man lurking near us, and he might have told Chris what the story was about.
“If I don’t do it anyway, someone else will. It’s called caring for a former dog.”
“… unsolicited behavior can lead to an accident”
“That’s why I’m talking to Chris”
With that said, Chris zeroed his sigh.
And give me the black bag you left on the ground.
“It’s what you want. Check it out.”
Receive the bag from Chris and open the lid.
What was in the bag was a black bracelet.
“What about maintenance?
“Enough. It also reproduces the habits you used.”
“That helps…. By the way, has anyone used it recently?
“A few people tried and shot me six months ago, but that’s clear. As I said before, no one could use it like you, so I had to go to the warehouse.”
“… that’s a complicated mood. My partner, who used to have it, is now dusty in a dim warehouse?”
“I don’t mean it as well as we do. It’s high performance, and I just want to make use of it, but I can’t help it more than not having a successor.”
I snort at Chris’ explanation.
Looking at the black bracelet made me feel nostalgic somewhere.
Place the bracelet in the left wrist in a familiar motion. It feels exactly the same as it did back then.
Feeling the weight of nostalgia on one arm, I mumbled what I thought.
“But now you’re willing to cooperate a lot. It must have been tough last night.”
“If that’s what you think, I want you to work. Elysia did all the tricks to hook me up with a fake roberto? That doll (dummy) was pretty expensive too.”
“… I don’t have a companionship. Stay with me.”
“Don’t worry, the bureau will pay.”
I had my doubts about that response.
“… does that mean the Bureau tolerates this operation?
“I can’t explain the details, but I don’t mind you perceiving them that way. You can’t bring a sole out if you don’t.”
Chris pointed at my black bracelet and said:
“By the way, as you know… if you fail the mission, we will trump you. Act with that intent…. Well, if you’re a Hundred Wars Smelter, you won’t have a problem.”
To Chris’ words, I shook my head to the side.
“You’re not.”
“Huh?”
“This is my first line.”
Not for the country.
So, it’s for Elicia? – That’s different, too.
Only my ego is ahead of me from here.
Today. For the first time in my life, I kill enemies for myself.
