In the midst of the satnium, I concentrated on "monster making" by myself.

　I tried many things, but I could easily create a monster that looked like it could be in a company.
　Other than that, I could just barely manage to create monsters that looked like they belonged in the real world.
　For example, an elementary, middle, and high school student in a school uniform.

　But if you make a monster like that, there's something slightly wrong with it.
　It's like being trapped in the so-called "Valley of the Uncanny", and it ends up looking very uncanny.

　No matter how many times I try, it doesn't change, so I give up and decide to make people in the company.

　By the way, I couldn't make ones that looked like they belonged in this world.
　For example, I couldn't make a warrior in armor, a wizard in a robe, or a princess knight that Sakura loves to kill.

　I couldn't make those kinds of things at all before I felt uncomfortable.

　It's kind of starting to feel like it's time to get a (temporary) from "Satnium (temporary)".

　The reason I don't do that is because I'm feeling the urge to be cautious until we really get it up and running.

Now, let's see what's next: ......

　As I walked through the dungeon, I thought about things.
　Rather than imagining a place where there was nothing at all, it's easier to create an image by looking around and imagining things like, "There was a cleaning lady in the bathroom or a stereotypical hot-water supply room, where the office workers seem to be hanging out together.

　Then I came to the place where the big guys seemed to be.

　When I was a new employee, I would often sneak over to their area and use their toilets.

　There was a washlet in the toilet on the floor where the bosses were, back then.
　The memory of that time made this floor with the big guy.

'You have the big guy, of course, and your secretary, right?

　Muttering this, I imagined and brought out the monster of a secretary.

　He's the president's secretary in a tight suit, tight hair and glasses, and he's a very tight, competent type of president's secretary.

'Yeah, I can't miss this one.

　I was pleased with the monster I'd created.

　Unlike creating a student, this president's secretary was very real.

I wondered how it felt to have a secretary like this managing all those things.

　I've never been made, so I can't imagine that at all.
　It's kind of an image, but I think it's usually more of a secretary who is in charge.

　...... Well, that's the kind of image I have, which is probably why I've become such a hard looking and competent secretary to the president.

　Putting aside the questions that seem to never come up even after thinking about it, this president's secretary is definitely going to be put in place - that's when I thought.

''Lyota!''
Hmm?　Alice, what's going on?

　My name was suddenly called and I turned around to see Alice coming from the stairs instead of the elevator.

　She came over to us with an excited look on her face, carrying numerous fellow monsters on her shoulders as usual.

'I've been called,'
Did he call for you?
Yeah!

　Alice nodded deeply and turned her attention to the president's secretary.

'Ooh, what a cool look!
Cool or... It's not pretty or anything.

　I chuckled a little bit.
　For me, it's a 50-50 split between beautiful and cool, but I can understand how it feels to feel the cooler side more strongly.

Hone hone, go!

　With Alice's command, an SD-sized skeleton - Honehone - jumped down from her shoulder and returned to her original size.
　Even though it returned to its original size, it was still a cute, deformed figure.

　That Honehone - jumped on the president's secretary.

　It unilaterally attacked the president's secretary, who didn't move at all, and knocked her down.

　Then--poof!

　With a sound, the president's secretary changed her appearance.

''Oh.''

　What a hone hone - or rather, the same deformed SD size as my fellow monsters.

'Come on, Kirikiri,'

　The deformed president's secretary trotted over to Alice and climbed onto her shoulder.

'Thank you, Lyota,'
'You're welcome - but it's going to happen. I mean, I--I'm--I guess it has nothing to do with the will of the spirits.

　It was quite refreshing to see Alice joining the monster from a different perspective.
