VOLUME 0 CHAPTER 3: Prologue.. still.

I heard a *crack* sound and an abnormal amount of pain running through the joints of my fingers.

「Gyaaaaaaaa!?!!?!?!」

Guuuu giii yaaaaa ghaaa gyaaaaaaaaaa!

My fingers were in so much pain that even my head could just imagine what it's going through.

「Ughh... My head!」

Ahhhhhh! My fingers!! I hit and thrust them at the wall!!

As I cried on the inside, I gritted my teeth and held my breath.

「Kusoooooooo.....!」

While withstanding the unimaginable pain, I make my finger L-shaped and twist my wrist. Then a menu screen opened up in front of me. Having to press the logout b.u.t.ton in a hurry, my visibility darkens and the logo 『ＨＥＬＬＺ ＤＯＭＡＩＮ』emerges.

I began to remove HMD from my head and threw the glove-type Virtual Reality controller. As I gaze at the screen of the computer the accessories were connected to with watery eyes, a red window flashes on and off. Somewhat, the VR Controller is malfunctioning due to the tactile feedback capabilities as the numerical value of the settings is put at the MAX value.
[TL Note: HMD is Head-Mounted Display, it's like the ones from all those VRMMO anime and stuff, but not better]

「Tsk... and it was such a nice place....」

At that time, my mobile phone's ringtone set off.

Oh what, in this emergency! But the moment I saw the name that was displayed, blood was in an abnormal state. Unintentionally, I forgot the pain from my fingers and grabbed the mobile phone.

「If――」

My voice was then interrupted, and a loud sound that almost broke my eardrums pops out.

「Oi! The data of the Demon Lord h.e.l.lshaft has not gone up! What are you doing?!」

Oh yeah! Even though it was a data that took me until morning, I sent it right away!

The name of the caller is Aikawa Akiko-san. It is the company I work for, moreover the game company 『ＨＥＬＬＺ ＤＯＭＡＩＮ』 that I am using. Demon Lord h.e.l.lshaft is a character that appears in the game 『Exodia Exodus』which is under development.

「Aikawa-san, I'm very sorry! The data are already done so I will send it soon!」

「It is impossible not to deliver it unless it's demanded from a client at all! The data was not there, and my work was cut down for five minutes! I'm going to subtract that from your wages!」

「Please wait a minute because I made the data overnight! I've got the 150 sounds and motion data of the Demon Lord h.e.l.lshaft! It was terrible because I received the order just last night and I worked until morning!」

「Haa? What are you saying in a position of money? You can't even contribute to society with this kind of work only, a NEET and a chuunibyou like you are lucky to even land this job!」

I disagree! I actually go to high school, though I don't deny the latter.

「ThatーAikawa-san? Even if you are told of the money and such, yesterday's orders are not at all even a retaliation! Because it is a contract for full payment, retaking it is just working!」

「I'm p.i.s.sed because it's becoming worse, just look, the number of checks has increased, and I'm started to get annoyed by this!」

Well, yesterday is certainly not a retake, but making new changes to the specifications. Obviously, the order of contents has changed. I'm definitely sure the director changed the productions out of ha.s.sle. I decided to give up and let out a big high unnaturally.

「I will send all the data in 5 minutes!」

「WITHIN 3 minutes!」

She then hung up while she was angry.

Aikawa-san is obviously still young, in her early twenties. She's beautiful and cute if speaking clearly. A little brownish long hair. The way to dress in suits beautifully is a dear businesswoman. When I met her for the first time, having this appearance was made advances to a man in the office. But that person is not even a person, she's an ogre disguised as a person! The retake and specification changes are directed by this very person.

But seriously, does Aikawa-san really go to work this early in the morning? That is that, but it may be a serious problem in the company...although there is no law which states that it is okay to throw this in.

When I caught the mouse of my computer, I uploaded the data that I made throughout the night through an FTP server. And looking at the time, it was already time to go to school.

When I grabbed my bag, I decided to leave the room. My mother then answers back if I call out to her. And my father seems to have left for work already. Well, everywhere in the world, workers with a salary are troubled. I really want to live with ease in this world as much as possible. Pus.h.i.+ng such troubles to a person, acting all well, living in ecology and achieving with minimal labor.
[TL Note: This is my life right here... well, luckily, I only work on the weekends, and I have no school on the weekdays, so I'm set for translating each week]

If I think about it, I still have time for studying, as my part-time job is endurable every day, though I come to school, there is no meaning other than getting proof of a certificate of graduation.

Even if I leave the house now and breathe the fresh morning air, it will not cause the yawning to stop. With an absentminded look, I walk to the nearest station.

After staying up all night to do work, I should have spent some time like updating Asagiri Ririko's VR data. I really wish I had time to sleep even for an hour, I regret it now. Though it was a youthful day.

Asagiri is pretty good, but she is in fact, not real. So I can't be with the real person. But rather, it is better than the real thing.

If you could talk with reals girls or play together with there, the VR version of Asagiri wouldn't be necessary. But her being an idol at school and me at the bottom of the school's hierarchy, such a thing can't happen. That kind of thing is only science fiction.

However, it is not a waste to make a data of Asagiri. In the future, 3DCG will do the work for you instead.

Although... even though it says the data functionality of Asagiri's uses the one chosen among the basic models from Exdoai Exodus. It's only the face that was replaced, but it's just a matter of posting photos on the face and having it justified by the software.
[TL Note: Basically photoshopping, for say, you wanted to have s** with a p**nst*r, just slap in your face on the guy who's having s** with her and boom, done]

Though, there is not a bit of shady detail. This is a traditional technique called collaboration handed down from the ancient times. It is possible to call it traditional entertainment, but I will carry on this tradition, and tell the future generations!

In the first place, Asagiri's naked body which I've never seen before, and I can't get any figures from it. It's literally impossible to make it out from scratch!

I took a train while thinking such things, and decided to go to my old public school Minamimyojin High School. I had a visual when I went to the Cla.s.s-A cla.s.sroom of my second year, I felt as I suddenly went into the Virtual Reality s.p.a.ce.

「Oh, good morning Doumeguri-kun.」

This is certainly because Asagiri was there.
