604 604. Under the edge




 Vanadium in the evening, the saloon in the mansion.
 Sakura came here in a straight line from the transporter room when she got home.

 Emily was in the room, cleaning the salon.

'I'm home, Emily.'
You're on your way home, sir.

 Emily stopped cleaning and turned her body to face Sakura.

'I'll make you some tea or something,'
Oh, it's all right. It's all right. I'll be fine. Just do what you want, Emily.
Really?
Yeah. More importantly, is your uncle back already?

 Sakura spun around to look around the salon.

 The Lyota family has one characteristic.
 It was a trait that most of them would gather in this saloon, except for bedtime and when they were out and about.

 The mansions that Emily maintains and manages are all bright and warm, but this saloon for everyone to gather in is outstanding among them.

 That's why, when you wake up in the morning or come home in the evening - everyone naturally gathers here.

 Ryota is no exception to this, in fact, it can even be said that he is the one who comes here on his own initiative.
 Sakura, who looked around the salon, thought that Ryota hadn't come back yet.

'Yoda-san is on a job,'
Work?
Yes, he's building a dungeon. Maybe--

 Emily said, and gave a slightly complicated smile.

'--I don't think I'll be back today,'
Again?

 In contrast to Emily, Sakura makes a distinct, gasping face.

'Yes, sir.'
She's always at ......

 Sakura has a look of amazement on her face.
 Even the newest member of the team, Sakura, is well aware of Ryota's workaholic nature.
 Ryota's default calculation for work-related calculations is 31 days a month.
 I've already seen him do the "impossible" many times since Sakura transitioned.

 It's not surprising that he's so dismayed.

Shall I bring her back?
Hmm, I don't think I'm going to be any good today.
Are you sure?
Yes. Yoda, you seemed to be having a lot of fun.
Sounds like fun.
'I've been working hard, Yoda, and I've been somewhat trapped and desperate.
It was.
'This time it wasn't, it looked a bit fun. So I think it's better to keep it that way.
'Hmm. If that's what you're doing, Emily, that's fine.

 When the option of taking her home disappeared, Sakura sat down with a thud on her seat on the sofa.

'Do you know what my uncle is doing in the dungeon?'
He said he was going to make a movie that would be a guide.
A guide movie?
He said it was to show us how to attack them even when they're weak.
I see that one: ......

 Sakura nodded once, feeling satisfied.

'Oh, that's no good.'
Yes?
My uncle will probably end up with a TAS-caliber guy, and I'm gonna have to tell him that it should be a RTA and a stable chart.
Haha. ......

 There was no way Emily could understand another world, and an even deeper genre within that world.

 Sakura sensed this.

'I mean, it's not something that your uncle can do, it has to be something that even Margaret can do.
I see.
That's more like it. I think it would be better if you were doing a movie guide, Margaret, not your uncle.
I'll let Mr. Yoda do it.
"Huh?
Mr. Yoda, it's cool and nice.
...... well, maybe.

 Sakura, who was unexpectedly sloughed off, decided to just affirm it.

'But uncle is too strong, so it's still better to go with Margaret. That one has to be weak. Uncle is already at the top level of experience as well as ability, so he's too strong and not worthy of it.
'I see, that's it,'

 Emily was easily taken in by the talk of lifting Ryota.

'So, ...... Emily-san, bring your uncle back with you. I'm sure you'll be able to find the right person to do it,
'Yes. I understand.

 Emily stopped cleaning and stuttered out of the salon.
 She stopped once around the entrance, facing Sakura over her back.

'Thank you so much.'

 He then went down the hallway to the transporter room.

'Totally, as soon as I'm distracted, I get lost in my work.

 Sakura complains in a dumbfounded tone of voice, but.
 The expression on her face, which no one was looking at, was not unflattering, that kind of thing.
