Corporate Slave Hero Says He's Quitting His Job

In my slowly surfacing consciousness, I saw a strange view.

On a strange altar, a single sword is stabbed.

So I was convinced.

This is a dream.

"Otherwise, there's no way it's here -" Holy Sword Sabres ""

"Long time no see. Dear Adele."

If you notice, the altar sword disappeared and instead one gray-haired girl was sitting on her back.

It's my familiar face, the human body of the Holy Sword Sabres.

"As loving as ever... concubine, I'm going to fall in love"

"Stop it, you creep"

"Oh, it's the same where I can't take you"

Savers smiles as he hides his mouth.

For a long time, this grin was creepy and I couldn't help it.

Because I feel that way, like I'm being seen through even.

"How did you come into contact with me?"

"Because you abandon the concubine, this is how the concubine had to interrupt your consciousness herself, right?

"So, not the way... tell me why. Now that we no longer need to fight the Demon King, for you and for me, we should no longer need each other."

"Oh, you're going to say that. My concubine is very sad."

That's how I lay my eyes down, Savers, but I know.

There's no way this guy is seriously sad about this.

"The concubine came to visit worried about you. Of all the brave men in history, my concubine likes you the most."

……

"Let go of the concubine at this time. But you're going to die sooner or later."

"Die?"

"Yes, you may not have noticed, but your body is the limit."

The moment I blinked, Sabres, who was in front of me, disappeared and, when I realized, kept my body on my back.

"You were certainly excellent as a brave man. Excellent, but therefore unable to escape the battle. As a result, numerous impotent piles are piling up, eroding your body."

……

"An eroded body collapses from a magic circuit to eventual death. You know that, don't you?

Factors that inspired me to come here.

It's new to my memory that magic is no longer available and I can't even manipulate magic to my satisfaction.

Then he lost consciousness and fell into his dreams.

"If you use bad magic, that's all the magic circuitry rots. Sooner or later, you will not be able to use magic satisfactorily, and just refine your magic will cause severe pain to run. If that happens, death is right in front of you."

"In the end...... what are you trying to say"

"I apologize for the roundabout. In the end, I want you to take my concubine again."

……

"A concubine can heal your body. It's possible to support it with holy magic so that the magic circuit doesn't rot any more - because it's not like that hateful demon sword."

Hateful demon sword - you must mean Exdark.

In fact, the black magic converted by Exdark didn't suit me.

It's true that if you keep using it, it won't lead to good results.

"The concubine is a sword. It is none other, your sword. Wherever you go, no matter how far away you go, that doesn't change. The concubine exists to support you and dedicates everything to you. Please, can it be in your hands again?

"... I am"

"Oh, you don't have to respond right away. I can't get under you for the time being."

Savers smiles with his hands on his mouth after his eyes are sadly lowered.

This trick comes out when you're really sad.

"I sold you."

"There is also that...... the concubine has now been caught by a troublemaker. The sword is a statute that cannot be opposed to its owner. As his weapon, we wield our power."

"A troublemaker?

"I can't say who it is. Because I can't sell my husband. But - you're the only one my concubine loves. It's not good to keep being used by my current husband."

Savers hugs me from the front and turns his arm around his back.

"In the near future, you and that person will meet face to face. Send down my Lord at that time and bring back my concubine. The concubine is waiting for you."

"It's not like we're gonna get it again."

"No, you will take your concubine. Because that's a certainty."

……

Sabres, away from me, returns to the altar with a thin grin.

For having a big name such as Holy Sword, the 'Holy' lettering doesn't suit your expression at all.

That's why I find the Holy Sword Sabres creepy.

"Looks like it's time for you to wake up. In reality, concubines can't interfere, so that's all we can talk about."

"Also, does it interfere with the world of dreams?

"No, you can only dive in like this when you're weak. If you're impotent again, it's possible to meet like this."

"... ok. Try not to be impotent."

"It's a hard decision."

Savers laughed once now, snarling his fingers.

Then, around the altar, it begins to collapse and the scaffolding gradually narrows.

"I'll see you then. Now, in real life."

"- Oh, right."

My scaffold collapses at the end and falls straight into deep darkness.

While I fell into deep darkness everywhere, my consciousness fogged again and vanished.

"I'll be waiting forever, Master Adele"

◆

"Huh!"

"Well, are you awake?"

When I opened my eyes, it was a private house somewhere.

There are four people around, Silver, Irela, Leona and Gidalla, surrounding my bed.

"Good! Good for you, Adelu!

"Whoa! Leona!?"

In the form of being pushed by Leona, who suddenly hugged him, he is knocked down again to bed.

Overwhelmed by Leona as if she were a cat, she asked Gidalla to explain with her gaze.

"Your Lord didn't wake up all day after he fell in the harbor."

"A whole day? You slept so much..."

"I didn't run out of magic, but the cause was unknown... so glad I woke up."

"... sounds like you've been worried. It's all right now."

I'll gently let Leona go and sit back in bed.

I try to circulate magic to my body to try, but I could do without any resistance.

I try to light a fire at my fingertips with simple fire attribute magic, but this is also a success.

Can use magic and magic without any problems.

There doesn't seem to be any more problems.

"Mr. Adele woke up, too, and I'll be ready to leave"

"Um, please, Irela. I need to talk to Adele a little bit about my health."

"Should we take our seats off too...?

"Right. There are parts of the relay that can turn around. It would be helpful if you could help the Lord."

"I get it. Adele, I'll see you later."

Following the irritation, Leona also leaves the room.

All that's left in the room are Gidalla and Silver and me.

"What's the story?

"I told you. I'm not feeling well."

Gidalla looks me straight in the eye and opens her mouth.

"Your Lord's magic circuit is already beginning to rot. Better not exercise any more magic."

"... how did you know?

"It's the same for me. So be it. After years of terrible magic, the magic circuit of the eagle has rotted. We're almost out of life."

"Huh!"

I opened my eyes.

The man in front of you is dying of himself.

"I don't want anything bad to happen. Stop fighting anymore."

……

"If we use any more magic, we'll be just like the eagles one day. But now we can still make it. At least you can live a normal human life."

Sure, if you spend time trying not to use magic again, I'll live a mediocre life.

If we go back to the village like this and live really secluded, we should be able to live in peace until our life expectancy runs out.

But...

"I can't do that."

"... why not"

"Because I have something I want back"

I get out of bed and carry a knife with an X-Dark that was nearby.

"After I quit the brave man, I decided to live a little selfishly. I was enjoying my life with Isbell. So cut through here... and I'll get my life back with him too"

"- Ha, as a Demon King's Army minister, I'm not in a complicated mood. Well, that's not a promise. As promised, when this matter is over, you can take Master Isbell away. Until then, we need your help."

"Oh, please don't be impotent."

"I'm going to make this a place of death. It's lame and lame."

So Gidalla's eyes, laughing against her chest, were stained with the colour of readiness.

Seriously, I'm trying to make this fight last.

No, the last thing I'm trying to do, am I the same?

In this battle, let's finish.

If Isbell loses his obsession and he can go home with me, then my reason to fight there is completely gone.

Then it's time for us to live a real peaceful life.

Are we done, ministers?

"I don't remember you becoming the Lord's minister!

"Shut up. When I say minister, I'm a minister."

As always, Silver is deserted.

But I feel better the other way around not being so distracted.

"If you're back in shape, we're going. Guess we can't afford the time, huh? I hear things while you're asleep."

"Oh, right. Thank you Silver for your help, too. It'll help."

"Good. The battle of ministers is my battle"

"... I knew you were the best king"

The three of us left the room intact.

Join the frustrations for a moment and get ready to go.

Perhaps because there is a fierce battle ahead of us...

"Lord..."

"Hmm?"

When I tried to get out of the private house, Exdark called me.

When I stop responding to it, Xdark opens his mouth one by one.

'Is my power eroding the Lord...?

"... how could you do that?

"I heard the conversation in my dreams. With the Lord... there's a conversation between Sabres'

Ex-Dark is my sword now, too.

A sword of will can interfere to the spiritual world of its owner.

That's why they sometimes say it's a name, a demon sword, etc.

"I 'm-- shouldn't I have enough?

……

It was a loud voice.

You won't have a sword that won't upset you when you find out you're hurting your owner.

But the word must be properly denied and done by the Lord.

"You, too, are already one of my precious things. It may be difficult in the future to wield your mind, but I will never let you go."

'Huh! Right......! Well...... if you can be the Lord, life that is not treated as a sword to your satisfaction may not be bad either!

"Oh, I'll use you for field work properly"

"Give me a break about that."

We go outside again, talking stupid.

- I'm fine.

I'm not in a position to let anything go anymore.

What's important, I'll defend it with this hand... yes, I've decided to be ready.
