The number of women who got off the large bus was quite a lot.
When asking an officer how many people there are, he said that there are close to 60.
The difference was close to 3 times because the men who partic.i.p.ate in this group omiai are less than 20.
“Many”
“Certainly”
“If so many came, you may meet someone to get along.”
“Take care of yourself because I’m fine.”
“It’s okay, okay. Because I’m not as strict as you are in my requirements.”
“Certainly, it’s different from a man who has married, right?”
“Is that sarcasm?”
“No~, they’re my true feelings?”
“That’s even worse.”
“Oops, it looks like it’s starting”
The Tsukkomi, shout by s.h.i.+nji, was washed away.
The mayor appeared on the gym platform, and the greeting starts. But, this is long.
I can’t help thinking why a speech of higher-ups is that long.
Waiting for 10 minutes, the greeting finally ends.
Then, the men partic.i.p.ating in this were called to gather in front of the platform.
I reluctantly go because it’ll be troublesome if I don’t go.
It seems like, we are going to introduce ourselves.
The men line up in a row and introduce themselves in turn.
It seems that the contents of the self-introduction are left to each person, and everyone is appealing in various ways.
There was also a person who said with pride that he worked as a Seeker.
After a while, my turn came.
I step forward.
“Eh~, I’m Suzuki Takuya. Age 32 years old. Profession farmer”
Saying only that, I go down to my previous position.
Then I hear the voice of the host.
[Eh, is that all?]
Apparently, I should say more, but I ignored it.

Then, it seemed that the host also gave up and called out to the next person.
[Eh~, next please]
After that, when the men’s self-introduction was over, the women’s self-introduction began.
I wasn’t interested and ignored it all.
I just stood there absentminded and waited to end sooner.
Then, when the women’s self-introduction ends, free time began.
There were cups on the table and drinks like beer, oolong tea, and orange juice.
I put oolong tea on a cup, took a sip and move to the wall and lean against it.
It’s amazing to see the meeting place from here.
It’s clear that the women group is swarming the men.
I also saw some women where it’s s.h.i.+nji.
Fu~n, in that case, will it work if one is alone?
When I was drinking oolong tea while watching that, several women came to me as well.
Uwa~, why are they coming?
I don’t understand why they come here.
Though I think so, I have no choice but to keep them company.
I’ll answer the questions of the women as not to be rude.
When I answer a few questions, then they leave satisfied, but the next group comes to replace them.
After repeating such a thing a few times, the coming people finally is interrupted.
Then, I was able to breathe.
When I carry the cup I had to my lips, I notice that there is nothing.
There is no choice but to go to a nearby table to pour oolong tea.
Then I poured oolong tea and drink it all at once.
And, a group nearby was getting quite excited.
When I look there, women were swarming the man who said
said that he is a Seeker in his self-introduction.
Apparently, it seems they are getting excited by a story of the dungeon.
By the way, how he feels about other dungeons?
I haven’t gone to other, so I’m a bit nervous.
I will try to ask.
I approach that man.
“Can I have a minute?”
“N? What?”
Looking closely, his body is good built.
His height is over 180.
“You, you are a Seeker, right? Which dungeon are you going into?”
“Which one? The one near the train station.”
“In this town?”
“Yeah”
“What kind of monsters are? How many?”
“Why? Why do you ask about such a thing?”
“No, I’m a bit curious.”
“Ah? Perhaps, are you thinking of becoming a Seeker? Stop it, stop it. Looking like that, you will die soon. If not, I see you bearing a serious injury.”
“It’s okay. Because I have no intention of doing that. However, I want to know about the situation of the dungeon. If there is a change, wouldn’t be dangerous?”
“Ah~, that kind of thing. Yeah, that’s right. There is no special change. It doesn’t mean that the monsters got stronger. However, because there aren’t enough people, there is quite a number. Thanks to that, I can hunt as much as I like.”
Said so, he laughed “Ga ha ha”.
“I see. Thank you”
“Wha~t, you can ask as much as this”
Anyway, I could hear what I wanted.
So, I leave that spot and return to the same place as before.
When I look at the hall with my back on the wall, a woman has left the group of men.
That woman just came to me.
The woman’s height is low about 150 cm, her hairstyle is called Bob cut? And
cut? And she wears gla.s.ses.
“What’s up?”
“Just now, why did you ask such a question? If it’s information about dungeons, you can always look it up on the net, right?”
“Certainly it can be found there, however, it’s better to hear it from someone who is diving, right?”
“……That’s right. There are things that you won’t understand just looking on the net.”
“Exactly”
“Then, did you understand something?”
“Yeah, first of all, that dungeon is lacking in manpower.”
“Looks like it. It seems that the SDF are doing their best, but it doesn’t seem that they are able to clear that one, moreover, it seems that a new dungeon was found”
“……Perhaps, otaku?”
“Eh!?”
“Because the information that a common woman has about the situation of the dungeon, it’s not too detailed. At most one would mind the area where oneself lives and the famous dungeons to some extent. Therefore, I thought you are an otaku.”
When I say that, the woman consented.
“Ah, I see. That’s wrong. I’m not an otaku.”
“Then, why do you know that very well?”
“I mean, aren’t you worried? If it isn’t done well and monsters overflow from the dungeon, like China or America? It would be stranger if you are not worried.”
I have no way to refute what she said.
The monsters overflow when you leave the dungeon alone.
So, in order to avoid that, I’m challenging the dungeon that appeared in the field at home.
“Are you okay with that? You didn’t do anything on the dungeon.”
“I’m not okay”
Saying that the woman exasperated said “Then”, but
“Nevertheless, what could I do?”
And, she remains silent immediately after I say that.
“Didn’t that man say it? If I do it correctly, I would end with a serious injury,
a serious injury, if not I’m just going to die.”
The woman makes a mortifying face.
“There are things that a human can and can’t do. The dungeon capture should be entrusted to someone who can do it. If you made efforts to make it possible and can’t do it, you would regret it.”
“Please don’t say it easily!! You can say such a thing because you never confronted a monster!!”
The woman yelled and move away.
“Easily, eh?”
Well, if you don‘t see it, you don’t know anything, right?
s.h.i.+nji comes closer when I was thinking that.
“Oi oi, what did you exactly say? She was really mad.”
“It’s not a big deal.”
“That’s so? Moreover, you can’t do that, it was a terrible angry look, right?”
“That’s fine. Hey, there are people waiting for you.”
I show him that the women are looking at us.
That place where s.h.i.+nji has been earlier.
“Oh, my bad. I’m going for a moment.”
“Ah, see you later.”
I say that and sent out s.h.i.+nji.
When I see s.h.i.+nji entering the circle of women, I search for the woman I saw earlier.
However, I couldn’t find her.
That angry look, had something happen with a monster?
Even if something happened, I can’t do anything, right?
Thinking that I forgot that woman and just waited for this event to end.
It took a long time to finish and it was near evening so I ended eating something on the way.
s.h.i.+nji seems to have get along with some women and exchanged contact.
Me?
I was getting along with the wall until the end.
When I got home, I complained to mom and told that I would never go to that kind of event again.
