Hired for the job

Hello everyone!!

<"Before you keep staring into space and talking to yourself, you first need to keep giving me desserts.">

"Ahh, yes, sorry about that. Here you go."

<"Mmmmm~">

As you can see, I'm currently feeding Echidna after the enormous job she had to do.

What was it?

Well, you see, I'll give you some context so you understand what Echidna's job was about and how it relates to the current situation.

So let's begin!!

As you may recall, this world previously has all kinds of things and beings from other worlds hidden in plain sight, thanks to the work of specialized organizations in such matters or through the use of special areas like the "veil" that maintain a division between the common and supernatural worlds.

But as you may have noticed by now, that division is not absolute!

And it's thanks to this that things like curses, apps, mysterious drugs, and so on exist, mostly being used by the worst kind of people possible...

Why does this world have a favoritism for that?!

Haa... I really wish I knew, but as I said before, I don't want to get involved in some big conspiracy or anything like that, so I'll desist from any attempt to get involved willingly.

And calling me a coward won't change my decision! Do you know why? Well, that's...

BECAUSE I WANT TO LIVE IN PEACE!!

So having said that, if you want to involve me, you'll have to force me, world!!

(LIGHTNING!!!)

"PLEASE FORGIVE ME!!"

<"Why are you apologizing?">

"For something I thought."

<"...It's okay, but keep feeding me.">

...Ahem, I apologize for that interruption. So let's get back to the topic, please. And as I was saying, among those objects there are extremely powerful things scattered around, waiting for someone, whether good or bad, to find them and use them.

And sadly, mostly twisted people find them!!

But now I will take advantage of knowing the information about several of them to find them before the original person! A perfect plan!!

...Or so I'd like to say, but as always, things are never as one wants, and I didn't account for my (terrible) sense of direction, besides how difficult it is to find something specific in this gigantic world.

And I mean it, this world is 4 times bigger than the one I (think?) I remember!

But not all hope was lost; thanks, ironically, to living in Central City, which interconnects with every place in this world, a brilliant solution occurred to me after much thought.

Do you want to know what it is?

Alright, I'll tell you!

It turns out there's a shipping company that has all sorts of things in its catalog, and by "all sorts" I literally mean everything, even anomalous, alien, and so on!

And the best part is that depending on your job, you can get things for free!!

....However, I had a small problem... And that is that I... you see, and this might surprise you, but.... I am "physically" very young, which is why they won't hire me.

Originally, I planned to grow naturally to enter without many problems, but the situation has changed! Or rather, I really need improvements!

For what reason? Am I not doing well?

That's a good question, my dear reader, but if you review everything that happened previously up to this point, you'll notice the absurd number of problems I keep getting into!

So it's clear that I need to step up my game if I want to keep my life relatively "normal," and that's why I asked Echidna for help to try to manipulate perception a bit to get hired, but it seems that left Echidna exhausted due to the necessary scale, so I'm currently feeding her as compensation...

But anyway, that means I just need to work as a good delivery person to get my sweet rewards now!

With your sense of direction, can you do it?

Answering that question hurts a bit, but don't worry!!

Because I have a secret weapon to solve this problem that has been waiting for its moment to shine....

"So I'm counting on your help, Sara!"

"Yes, Sara will do it."
