“Phew, I think we’re safe now.”
　We quickly left the zoo and had made our way back to the station.
　We stopped the stream and left immediately, but we saw a few people looking for us on the way to the station.
　That was close. The perception obstruction isn’t perfect, so if people actively search like that, there’s a chance we could be found.
　If one person finds us and draws attention, others might notice too. It looks like we need to get to a different location quickly.
“We ran quite a bit, are you okay?”
“Heh heh… Yes, I’m fine.”
　Lilicia let out an amused laugh when I asked.
　I wonder what’s wrong. I tilted my head.
“Did you see them, Tanaka? Those people were looking for us. Ah, that was close, I’m still a little excited.”

“Mmm~♪ Delicious! There was nothing this cold and sweet in my country!”
　Lilicia, seated on a bench, happily licked her soft-serve ice cream.
　She looked genuinely happy; I’m glad I bought it for her.
　I sat down next to her and ate my soft-serve as well. I hadn’t had one in a while, but it was delicious.
“Even so, it’s peaceful…”
　I relaxed and looked around the area.
　Since today was a weekday, there weren’t too many people. Also, Lilicia was wearing the perception-obstructing bracelet, and I was erasing my presence, so no one was noticing us.
　It’s nice to have time to relax outside like this. Usually, my choices are limited to lounging around at home or being busy in a dungeon.
　Well, there are about five people from the Ministry of Monster Countermeasures monitoring us from a slight distance… but they’re not interfering, so they’re harmless as long as I ignore them. Lilicia doesn’t seem to notice the surveillance, anyway.
　As I was licking my soft-serve, lost in thought, I noticed Lilicia using a selfie stick attached to her smartphone to record something.

“Ooooh! Outside, outside! It’s been a long time since I’ve been outside, Tanaka!”
　Lilicia shouted with high spirits as she stepped out of the Ministry of Monster Countermeasures.
　There were many pedestrians in the city, but no one paid any attention to us. It seemed the perception-obstructing magic tool Lilicia was wearing was working correctly.
　Lilicia noticed this and smiled smugly. She had been stuck inside the house for so long. She must be happy to be able to go out like this.
“Hee hee hee, no one is noticing me. This is fun.”
　Lilicia was dressed in normal clothes today instead of her usual elven garb.
　However, Lilicia is tall, has a good figure, and a very beautiful face, so she stands out a lot. She was wearing a cap, but her aura couldn’t be completely hidden.
　Without the perception-obstructing magic tool, she would have instantly drawn attention.
“Alright, let’s go, Tanaka! Today, we’re going to play until we drop!”
“Sounds good. I’ll do my best to escort you and make sure you’re satisfied.”

　A week had passed since my return from the Tokyo Bay Undersea Dungeon.
　It was a difficult time, but since returning, I’ve been living a peaceful daily life.
　Rin and I were recognized by the country for stopping the monster disaster… but that was about it.
　Other than that, the only thing that’s changed is the way Hoshino and Amatsuki look at me since that night with Rin. I feel a gaze like I’m being targeted by a carnivorous beast. It’s more frightening than a clumsy monster; I feel like they’ll pounce if I show any weakness.
　But other than that, everything is truly peaceful and without a problem.
　Suda, who escaped, also doesn’t seem to have done anything, and there have been no major incidents. I wonder if he has already fled to another country. Even he, as a wanted man, probably wouldn’t do anything to stand out, I think.
　And so, as usual, I was peacefully eating lunch.
　Then suddenly, one of my roommates slammed her hand on the table and stood up.
“I’ve decided! You’re going on a date with me, Tanaka!”
“……Huh?”
　To her sudden words, I gave a silly response.

After we escaped, an investigation of the seabed dungeon was conducted, and it seems the dungeon’s destruction was successful.
Just to be safe, the surrounding sea area was also surveyed, but no monsters were found. It seems the dungeon core was properly destroyed.
No monster disaster occurred, so this exploration can be called a great success.
And we also safely brought back the guys we met in the dungeon.
“Heh, heh. Long time no see, Lord Cthulhu…”
『Iya』
When Dagosuke greeted him, wringing his hands, the evil god replied uninterestedly.
We are now in the basement of the Ministry of Magic’s research bureau. The evil god was placed in a giant aquarium built there. Unlike Riri and Dagosuke, the evil god is too big.
Its mental contamination effect is also strong, so it was determined to be difficult for it to live with us, and it ended up living here.
It looks a little cramped, but it agreed to it on the condition that Riri would visit occasionally.
I’m glad this guy was an otaku.
“Wonderful! Its internal structure is different from any existing organism, and the frequency of its magic energy is a pattern I’ve never seen before. As expected of an evil god, it’s worth a thorough investigation…”
