“Hello, Captain Abbey! It’s been a while?”
The golem, bound in the shadows, heard my words and raised his head.
The form of the golem was unbelievable. Dozens of whips in black shadows were pulling the golem’s body like a toy. If the pulling force had not maintained the state of antagonism, the whole body of the golem would have been torn apart.
The way to break the shadow is fire. I set fire to my fingers with ritual magic and cut off the shadows one by one.
“Ah, I’m sorry. I had to be away, so I tied my legs up for a while in case I fell out of the cupboard… . But are you tied up prettier than back then? What kind of person would have done it?”
Where do you want to hear my answer to my voice?
As I bit the speaker into my empty mouth, an eerie noise began to be heard in the distance.
“Ugh… . close… .』
“Wow. The golem grinds it! I have no teeth, but I am grinding my teeth!”
A golem who grinds his teeth as if he doesn’t mind changing me.
However, resources that cannot be recovered are precious. Permanent teeth are one of them.
After waiting for a while, the golem stopped grinding his teeth and spoke in a sparsely interrupted voice.
“… The main building is your… I will never forget your actions.”
“Oh, why? He made me think about stretching while I was away.”
“Hardly… . Because of that, the main building.”
It’s fun, but it’s less enjoyable because I can’t read the thoughts.
I decided to end up making fun of it and brought out the business.
“So, since we’ve figured out a way to escape, what if we call the officer right away? I don’t come out like that because I’m being rude.”
“… Are you blatantly talking about your feelings while trying to figure out a way to escape from the front of the main building?”
“You might be wondering. Captain Abbie also wondered how to get out of the cupboard, right? That’s why I negotiated with Tyr… It was a bit late, though.”
“Then they are equal. Neither the main building nor you could figure out how to escape each other.”
Signal Soldier It’s because he has spare time, he doesn’t say a word.
I can’t read my mind, and I have enough vigilance. What are you going to come up with when you poke this?
Let’s just poke
“Looking like you don’t want to talk to me, I think it’s a good way to try, even as a regular culprit, right?”
“aver. Impossible. The abyss is not a place for scoundrels like you to escape, so I recommend letting go of vain hopes.”

Maybe it’s the truth, sometimes it’s a scare.
Is the escape method like a riddle that anyone can reach if they know the way, or is it a heartless sieve that can only be filtered out by those who are incompetent even if they know how?
I do not know. Because I can’t read the thoughts of golems.
“It’s fun.”
Obviously, talking to golems is kind of fun.
I can’t read the other person’s thoughts, even facial expressions or gestures, so I have a taste for imagining and hitting them. It’s like reading a crossword puzzle in a newspaper.
But wouldn’t Captain Abbe feel that way? You’ll be tired of dealing with it. For her beyond the golem, I must be one of the many problems that exist around her.
“You… How the hell did you get the sijo? The progenitor, Tirkanjaka, is an indifferent being who did not resist even when being escorted to the abyss, but how could she only work for a thug like you?”
“I wonder?”
Perhaps he didn’t want to get the sad sound out of his mouth, the golem just nodded his head. I smiled and answered the world brightly.
“Don’t teach me.”
“profit… !」
“hahaha. just joke. I’ll let you know. If you are indifferent… Isn’t it possible to be mindful? ha ha ha!”
“… The joke level is very high. The level of the age group that enjoys it!”
Sometimes people don’t believe me even when I tell the truth. Did it really make your heart race?
Well, if you don’t believe it, there’s nothing you can do. You are the only loss
“Even if you don’t have anything like that, wouldn’t it be nice to spend a few months together in an isolated space? Like the two of us?”
“You mentioned the counterexample yourself. Anyway, I checked.”
Golem meekly asked if he thought I wouldn’t say more. Instead, he stood tall on his legs and looked up at me and said,
“request. Please guide this aircraft to Lieutenant Colonel Callis.”
“Colonel Callis? Are you talking about the real new instructor this time?”
“The new instructor… ?』
The golem made a questioning response for a moment, then nodded as if he understood.
“Colonel Callis is the instructor… No, think of it that way. There is no difference.”
“Is there no difference? Is Lieutenant Colonel Callis a fake instructor like me?”
It was just a word, but the golem shouted out in a snap.
“Take what you put on, stick on it! Unlike you who are a level 0 citizen, you are a person who graduated from the High School with excellent grades! If you do it, it’s an impersonation, but if Lieutenant Colonel Callis says it, it’s a command!」
“Oh, there is nothing to be angry about.”
What, aren’t you an instructor? But why did you come all the way to this Tantalus?
“Colonel Callis came to us as a supply inspector and inspector of the facility. Originally, we were going to inspect the area around Tantalus and check the supply distribution status. However, it seems that there was some misunderstanding, and he came down directly to Tantalus with supplies, so it stopped.”
At the unexpected words, I widened my eyes.
“Eh? really? Did you fall by mistake?”
“correction. It’s not a mistake, it’s an error.”
“That or that. Well, unlike the strict-looking one, he was very relaxed.”
“denial! I reiterate, Colonel, you entered Tantalus by mistake! The lieutenant colonel is a person who made outstanding achievements immediately after being commissioned and became a lieutenant colonel. You are not the kind of person who would make such a minor mistake!”
The golem raised the officer’s face to the end and continued.
“Anyway, the upper ranks of the military are fully aware of the current situation, and we are discussing how to deal with it, so until any other instructions are given, consider the lieutenant colonel-sama as the training commander and follow the orders.”
“Okay, okay.”
I replied mildly and smiled. Things turned out to be funnier than I expected.
Because the officer is not a mistake or a mistake… Because I came here ‘intentionally’.
This, I guess I need to read the officer’s thoughts properly.
“… I don’t know if I’m up to something else, but it won’t be easy now. Unlike this aircraft, Lieutenant Colonel Callis’s own strength is also considerable. Impersonating an instructor is no longer possible.”
Seeing my smile, the golem gave a soft warning.
Seriously, a good example like me would die of shame. It’s the officer’s job, but I’m suspicious.
I trudged down the hallway with Captain Ab by my side.
On one side of the 4th floor, there is a worker’s quarters, on the other side there are various facilities necessary for life. Dining room, laundry room, furnishing room, education room, etc.
And far beyond the broken iron bars, the one with the biggest door was the instructor’s room.
Even though the crime is light, the laborers are also prisoners. To prevent them from escaping in the dark, an iron fence with a large lock was installed in the place leading to the stairs to the fourth floor. In the midst of a riot, it was shattered, but the remains of it were still there.
It was time to cross the broken iron bars and head to the instructor’s office.
Without warning, a black knight rose from my shadow and spoke to me.
‘phew. There are soldiers of the military in this direction.’
The Black Knight spoke in Tyr’s voice. His voice was full of concern.
“It’s okay, Tyr. We’re just going to talk for a while.”
‘Be careful. I don’t know how strong she is. Even if your skills are half that of Shay, the Black Knight hidden in your shadow will not be your opponent. It will be difficult to earn time.’
If one lieutenant colonel is as strong as half of the returners, the military has conquered the world in the past. I waved my hand to mean it was okay.
“Because it’s okay. Don’t follow me. I don’t know what to do if I’m scared.”
‘i get it. you may have something to think about Be careful though.’
The Black Knight left those words and disappeared back into my shadow. Leaving behind Tyr’s worries, I headed towards the door of the instructor’s room.
In front of the tightly closed door, I put my mouth closer and said.
“smart.”
“Come in.”
When permission was granted, I quickly opened the door and went inside.
The instructor’s room was not a living space, so all they had was a sofa, a chair, and a desk. This is because Tantalus did not assume that there would be an instructor in the first place.
The officer had scattered all kinds of luggage and papers in the empty space. Seeing that there were also broken golem remnants, it seemed that he had stopped by the management office outside.
The officer, who had been tidying up for a while, looked at me and twisted his face.
‘Ttt. I should have hired laborers to do these chores. Why did the Sijo protect such a common criminal?’
Whoa. thank god. If I wiggled it, I would have walked up and down the 4th floor with it.
He gave a compliment to himself that he had lined up well, and held out the golem he had put on his side.
“Come on, here.”
“… that?”
“It’s Captain Abbey. Say hello.”
“The main building must first salute you. Let go.”
As he carefully set the fluttering golem on the ground, the golem, standing upright, saluted the officer with his palm outstretched.
“Long live the military. It’s the operator, Captain Abbey. I am in charge of monitoring and contacting inside Tantalus.”
Although the golem is only one-third the height of a human, one salute was perfect. The way he salutes with his small body was even cute.
But I was the only one who thought so. A squeaking sound was heard from the officer.
‘Communicator. A lucky boy who was chosen and became a captain because of pure magical aptitude without any talent or effort… . tt The false officer was here too.’
ah ah
