(Thank you for reading at bayabuscotranslation.com)

Haruka-kun joined the party, and we were making the first live-stream video. While exploring the dungeon, we practiced the victory dance as a concept. So, it was a cycle of fighting, dancing, fighting, and dancing.

Haruka-kun was a good coach. Without getting angry, he politely showed examples, teaching how to present the hands’ direction and angle. While checking the video with Mira, we steadily proceeded with preparation. The camera’s operation check was also done, and now, I had no escape.

“Oh! We got a hit, let’s call more enemies!” (Haruka)

“Yes, let’s do it!” (Mira)

“Wait a moment, the gear…!” (Kouta)

“Mira, I’ll carry it.” (Haruka)

“Oh, sorry Haruka. Kouta, follow the two of them!” (Mira)

“Roger.” (Kouta)

I eagerly chased after the two who ran ahead. Buffed in speed, the two dove into a group of prey they had found.

“They’re reckless…” (Kouta)

Not only the two who had jumped into the goblin crowd, but also Haruka-kun, who told everyone about the support from the “dance.” Our levels had risen, the numbers increased, and with the support received, as a result of the strengthened forces, we were able to hunt with considerable ease even on the 3rd floor. Our extermination speed had increased, and earnings were good. But I grew nervous thinking that somewhere, someone might leak information about Haruka-kun.

“I’ll protect your back. Prioritize calling your comrades.” (Haruka)

““Understood!”” (Mira and Kouta)

Though we didn’t bring large equipment, this time we carried small items like a tablet for checking the video and spare batteries. It took a few seconds to gather those, which was why Mira was lagging behind.

“Wow. This time, you called a huge number again.” (Kouta)

“I’m joining the fight too, okay?” (Haruka)

“Yeah, let’s kill them. Wolves later! Kick out the goblins first!” (Mira)

“““Understood!””” (Everyone)

Mira was in charge of command for now, but I was practicing commanding for the videos.

Honestly, I’m not used to it. I don’t think it suits me. Well, even against wolves, in this current situation where everyone can surpass in speed, no matter who commands, we won’t lose.

“This is incredible. So, this is the support power that every country desires.” (Kouta)

We kept calling monsters, but our attack power surpassed theirs, and we exterminated the enemies.

“Since the abilities raised are random, it lacks some stability though.” (Mira)

“That’s a challenge. Also, like me, the MP is insufficient?” (Haruka)

“That’s right. MP shortage is an issue. It lasts for after-school activity time, but not for a whole day.” (Kouta)

“When stacked, usage time further decreases. MP equipment or level… neither is easy.” (Mira)

We gathered the drops and listened while resting. That was a conversation between Mira and Haruka-kun just now.

“My pushing and Emilia’s defeating coordination is stable.” (Mira)

“Yeah, it’s almost too easy, to the point I lose concentration.” (Haruka)

“Does Emilia concentrate better under tension?” (Mira)

“That’s normal, right? Hey, Kouta?” (Haruka)

“I wonder? I’m weak with tension, so I focus better when relaxed.” (Kouta)

“That’s unexpected.” (Mira)

“Unexpected indeed.” (Haruka)

“Oh?” (Kouta)

“The way you cut into a goblin crowd with a calm face doesn’t look like someone who is weak against tension.” (Mira)

“If you know you can win, there’s no reason to be tense when charging in, right?” (Kouta)

“Ha~, that’s Kouta-san for you~.” (Sofia)

Huh? What is that evaluation? Sofia smiled broadly, looking exasperated?

“Well, it’s Kouta! Just now, the way you protected the back of those two was really reliable. Right, Haruka?” (Mira)

“Yeah, it was a magnificent stability. It felt like we could have won safely even without our participation. Though, I wanted to raise my level, so I joined.” (Haruka)

“Hey Kouta, it’s a bit late, but the other day you tried to show something on your arm. What was that? I got flustered and forgot when Emilia jumped at you. If you don’t mind, could you tell me?” (Mira)

That was shocking. I had forgotten about it too. What I remembered was only the feeling of Emilia hitting my back. Since then, with Emilia’s frequent skinship, I hadn’t recalled it.

“It’s my accessory. An ‘MP Ring’. It boosts MP, but it also adds DEF, so if I lend it out, my defense drops. So, it was an option, but sorry, I can’t lend it.” (Kouta)

“…Ah, that can’t be borrowed. Isn’t that a very expensive item?” (Mira)

“Yeah, probably. MDEF is high too, and it’s a gold chest item.” (Kouta)

Mira held her head with one hand and staggered, and Haruka-kun caught her.

As expected of Haruka-kun, handling it casually! I still can’t summon the courage to hold Emilia back in return.

“Ah, sorry Haruka. That guy is crazy. No matter how much it’s for efficiency, lending something like that wouldn’t normally be an option, right!?” (Mira)

“That’s Kouta for you.” (Haruka)

“Emilia might be attracted to that. Emilia, don’t be too greedy or you’ll run away, okay? We don’t want to see you crying.” (Mira)

“U~… I understand. I’ll be a little more restrained.” (Emilia)

Mira!! Thank you! Of course, I don’t hate Emilia. But I just can’t keep up! Marrying after two days of meeting, like an American, is something I absolutely cannot understand!? Romancing at the same pace as in movies is unthinkable! Movies are fiction, aren’t they!?

“Let’s go soon. I want to film the ‘Goblin Village’ last and finish.” (Mira)

At Mira’s words, everyone sharpened their focus.
