"In fact, the consultation is about Yume."

"What's wrong with Yume?"

"Do you know that RPG game?"

"Yes, I've played it several times! I even maxed out my level."

"Do you remember the story?"

"Yes, I remember most of it."

"There was the emblem of the hero, right?"

"That scene was great, wasn't it?"

He placed a stack of blank copy paper on the desk and carefully recounted what had happened that morning.

Although I was skeptical at first, since both my senior and his wife seemed serious, I decided to believe them.

"Are you saying that Yume-chan received the 'Proof of the Hero'?"

"No, to be precise, I'd say it 'transferred,' but do you think something like this is realistically possible?"

"Yeah, 'Proof of the Hero' is something you find in fantasy novels or games."

"By the way, is that emblem the same design as the 'Proof of the Hero'?"

"No, that's just a mark I imagined on my own, I've never written it anywhere."

"Could you draw it for me?"

He handed over a blank notepad and pen from his bag.

This story originates from a different website. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.

"I think it was something like this..."

From vague memories, he managed to draw the mark.

"Huh? This mark..."

Adding something to it,

"Look, senpai. Doesn't this look familiar?"

He showed the mark drawn in the notepad.

"......"

"It's the emblem of 'Houkoku' that appears in the game!"

"Oh!"

Indeed, it was the emblem of 'Houkoku' that appeared in the game I used to play obsessively.

"So, does that mean Yume is not the 'Hero'?"

"That seems to be the case."

"Thank goodness... we won't have to fight the Demon King..."

As the two of them nodded in agreement,

"W-wait a minute, you're getting off track here!"

Startled, they sipped their post-dinner tea and resumed their discussion.

"So, you're a science major, right? Haven't you heard of such cases or phenomena before?"

"Of course not! That's just fairy tales or curses!"

...Fairy tales... Yume did indeed like such stories.

The problem novel, too, was something she read and listened to various tales, and as Yume rearranged them, it became a different tale. So, naturally! And she played the game obsessively as a motif for her fantasy novel.

However, could it really happen in reality? Since I actually saw it happen, I had no choice but to believe it.

Is taking her to the hospital the right decision after all? No, it would probably end up with us being turned away as a crazy parent and child...

Even after thinking about it, no solution came to mind.

For now, I decided to disband today.
