560 560. Can I do it?




 He was on his way home with Ena, carrying a drunken Erza on his back, in the streets of Cyclo.

'Yora-san ...... ehehehe ......'

 I look at the nighttime cityscape while carrying Elsa, who mumbles in her sleep, lightly on my back.

''What is it?''
What?
Does the night get more crowded again?
'Well, I've heard that there are more and more nightclubs these days. Not only that, but it seems that the amount of money being spent on nightclubs has increased in the past month.
I knew it. Everyone's got their money's worth.

 The economy of this world relies heavily on dungeons and adventurers.
 The adventurers are enriched by the fact that the agricultural city of Ciclo earns more money than the rest of the world because of its stable and well-equipped facilities.

 And it seems that the adventurers are a race of people who can't help but spit out money when they have it in their pockets.
 It's as if they're like the Edokos, they don't have any money in their pockets for the night! It's a kind of feeling, but I found it a little interesting to realize that humans are like that, even in other worlds.

That's not all there is to it.
'What? Is there anything else?
The sky is falling.

 I turned to Ena while going through Elsa's bedtime talk, which seemed to be strangely engaging and not engaging.
 She replied with her usual devilish, yet somewhat proud smile.

'It's because Lyota-san has started investigating the Nihonium.
Because I'm the one who started the Nikhonium investigation?
Yes. I felt a sense of trust and security that Ryota-san would do something for me. Especially the peace of mind. I know I can earn more money tomorrow, and maybe even more, and that's why people are willing to spend a lot of money.
Peace of mind.
It's because Mr. Lyota is here.

 Ena giggled, "Huh.

'If Lyota-san was gone, that sense of security would be gone and people would be less likely to spend money and the economy would be worse.
I think that's an exaggeration.
It's not true!
Wow!

 This time it was a grand surprise.
 You're actually awake, aren't you? I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to find out what's going on, but the timing is perfect for Elsa.
 When I turned my head, I could see that she was still asleep - she was still drunk.

 What timing is that?

You know, Elsa was right. I don't think so.
What?
'The economy will definitely suffer if Mr Lyota is gone. That's what the association president says.
Cell has a lot of fan spirit.
That's what Mr. Neptune says.
He thinks it's weird how much he buys me.
It's all over the store survey.
'I didn't know you were going to do that!

 Amidst a series of bitter laughter, I unintentionally thrust myself into the shocking revelation.

"You don't mind if I do?

 While going through the same ranting Elsa as always, I turn to Ena.

'Why are you doing that again?'
Doing your research and setting and revising your course is the basis of doing business, okay?
I suppose so.
"I'm going to hook up with a few stores and use my loyalty card to find out how adventurers spend their money and what they tend to do with it, and for 1% off, I'm going to give you everything from how they spend their money to their hobbies to the color of their underwear.
'You're too good at it! Did you even think about that?
As a Lyota family, we can't just sit back and relax, you know?
Haha ...... that's awesome.
It was Elsa's idea, by the way.
Okay.

 I felt the weight on my back and felt a little proud of myself.
 When my friends are amazing, it makes me want to go around bragging about it.

So don't go away.
'What? Yeah, I know. I'll be there.

 It's hard to disappear when someone tells you that the economy will suffer if you're gone.

 This world, this city, these people.

 I love them all, so I have no reason to leave.

 In the meantime, I came back to the mansion.
 I walk through the threshold of the new mansion - the vanadium dungeon and get to the entrance.

'Elsa? Can you make it on your own?
Huh? .......
Yeah, the house.

 Elsa scurried around on top of me.
 I put her down to try and she stood up on her feet properly.

'Ah, Yora-san is here too.'
You're still here.

 I chuckled - right after.

"You don't mind?
What?
Mmm-hmmm.

 Elsa kissed me while spitting the same lines as before.

'Wow.'

 Ena looks at it happily.

'Ehehehe ......, reenbu no yora-san, sira no ra properly.
Totally.

 I giggled even more.

 Elsa becomes a kisser when she gets drunk.
 That part hadn't changed at all - but.

''Huh?''
What's going on? Did it taste like vomit instead of lemon?
How can you say that to me, my best friend?

 I gave Ena a big shove before I gave her a big shove.

'No, it's not that, it's that ...... Elsa feels ...... Elsa.'

 On the mini-radar in my brain, Elsa's image was clearly visible and overlapped with mine.
