“Please let us take on a demon subjugation request!” (Captain-san)
“Eh?” (Mitsuha)
This is not the world of swords and magic . And this is not an adventurer’s guild .
And I was not a guild master either .
“What in the world are you talking about, Captain-san … “ (Mitsuha)
Right, this is, the 21st century Earth . And this is an armed mercenary organization in a certain country .
At the very least, it’s not the place where demon subjugation would be required .
“The last time dragon subjugation… The two member who couldn’t take part in it are now depressed and their complexion were horrible . If we don’t do something, it’ll be terrible!!” (Captain-san)
“I don’t care!” (Mitsuha)
Two and a half months after the expedition mission to various country, I gave Colette-chan a vacation at her village . I went to took care of my personal affairs and finally meet the captain of [Wolf Fang] .
Well, several days after we meet, he came up and asked for a strange request .
“I beg you! You know the circumstance, right? What if you were in the same position? Isn’t it cruel?” (Captain-san)
Ugh!
I-Indeed, of all of your classmates had memories of a lifetime, a big adventure where they were transferred to a different world, but you couldn’t take part in it because you were the only one who overslept… .
I don’t think I can have a peaceful enjoyable school life while everyone sharing their memories where I can only listen .
Impossible! There’s no way I can went through it!
“ … I understand … “ (Mitsuha)
What else I could do!
“How was your vacation? Was it fun?” (Mitsuha)
I transferred to Colette-chan’s village to pick her up .
“ … “ (Colette)
Huh? Isn’t Colette-chan’s reaction a little bit low?
“ The toilet… The bath… The bed… The food, uugghh!!”
I hurried to close Colette-chan’s mouth, but it was too late… .
“ “ …… “ “
Now, it’s Colette-chan’s parents who are disheartened .
I’m sorry . Colette-chan might not be able to be able to live in the village anymore…
Their expression brightened again after giving them Bacon, Smoked Cheese, and Farming Tools as souvenirs . It feels like they have already forgotten the previous thing . As expected, *Cough* they’re so simple…
Colette-chan too, gave some of her earnings to her parents, which is a great contribution to the village which has little cash income . And it seems her parents a little too overjoyed .
… I’m worried that the other girls would ask me to hire them too . I would be overwhelmed in that case . The others can not be emigrated without the lord’s permission, because that would be illegal .
Then, I took Colette-chan and returned to [General Store Mitsuha] by transfer .
Then I open the door lock from the inside of the store and put the Open sign . And I chatted with Colette-chan before the customers comes .
“Ne~, are there a lot of demons in our territory? There’s a lot of orcs and ogres, I wonder is it better to thin them out…”
Right, it’s a matter of selecting the hunting ground… . Speaking of hunting ground, the sword of choice would be [Ex-Calibur]~!
(Note: It’s a word play . Hunting ground = Kariba . Ex-Calibur = Ekusu Kariba . Silly I know)
It’s the [Caliburn]! (Raw: Karibaan)
No, anyway, a good hunting ground in the territory huh…
“There’s none” (Colette)
Yeah, there’s none… tte, Eeeeeh!!!
“Yamano territory is a small land bordering the sea, and the mountain and the forest are small enough for children to stroll around . There are goblins, kobolds, and some orcs . But if you thin them out, it will affect the lives of the Hunter in the territory” (Colette)
“Eh… . ” (Mitsuha)
Indeed, there have been no reports of demon being causing damage in the territory . So, I haven’t thought much about monsters and have never taken any measure against them .
It’s good that there are few demons, but the problem is this time…
“U~n, what should I do…” (Mitsuha)
Then Colette-chan gives the troubled me a word of salvation .
“But there’s a lot near my village, from goblins, orcs, boars, to wolves!” (Colette)
W-wolf… It’s bad, somehow, my left arm feels hurts .
Kuhhh!! The sealed demon rampaged!!
Tte, No, I’m not a chuunibyou!!
“Then that’s good… NOT, it’s not good at all!! Is Colette-chan’s village gonna be fine?!” (Mitsuha)
“If you were attacked by demons, well, it just lacks of awareness and bad luck isn’t it? (Colette)
“Light!! You’re too light Colette chan” (Mitsuha) (Light as in Unconcerned)
… But I guess that’s normal .
Without that kind thought concept, you might not be able to live in this world . This world is not safe unlike Japan . A world where the strong preyed on the weak . And of course, the [Enemy] includes fellow humans…
“Okay then, I guess I will ask the Count … “ (Mitsuha)
“I heard that onee-sama is going to subjugate monsters!” (Sabine-chan)
“Gyaaaa!!!!” (Mitsuha)
Where did you come from, Sabine-chan!
“I can’t possibly take a princess on a dangerous adventure!” (Mitsuha)
“First thing first . We have to organize the party, right…” (Sabine-chan)
“Oh, listen to me, will you?!!” (Mitsuha)
Sabine has no sign of listening to me, and of course as usual there’s the escort uncle with his desperate look .
And like that, Sabine-chan’s recklessness continues .
“First, Colette would be the [Front Vanguard] . Then I’ll be the [Rear Guard Wizard] … “ (Sabine-chan)
And Sabine-chan gave me a glance .
“Onee-sama would be, [One who play around]… “ (Sabine-chan)
“Why!!!” (Mitsuha)
I never playing around!! Of these three members, it’s me who always work the most!!
The one who always playing around is you, Sabine-chan!!
Well, anyway, there’s no way the King would give the permission . There’s no way a mere viscount can take the princess to another territory without permission and let her do dangerous monster hunting . She needs the king’s permission, and it’s not my job to get that permission . No matter what the circumstance is, there’s no way the King would give her the permission . It’s safe .
“Otou-sama, I’ve saved 73 points since my last win . I’ll use 10 of those point to get permission to participate in monster subjugation in the Bozes territory!” (Sabine-chan)
“ “Eeeeeeeehhhh!!!” “ (Mitsuha & The King)
What’s the deal with thaaat!!!
And somehow, he can only nods with a crying face, get yourself together King!!
“ … so, that was the case, I want to obtain permission to subjugate monsters in Bozes territory …” (Mitsuha)
“What was that [so, that was the case] … “ (Count Bozes)
The Count held his head .
“What if there’s something happened to Princess Sabine… No, even if it’s just a single scratch, what do you think would happen to me?” (Count Bozes)
The Count said that with a serious face .
Well I guess that’s right, If things went poor, it’ll not end with just his own life…
But it’s okay!! Such a thing would not ever happen… I think
“Oh right, I have this letter from the King!” (Mitsuha)
“Wha… . ” (Count Bozes)
Right, it is a letter written by the King to settle the matter due to the Princess’s strong request stating that no one will be held responsible if an accident occurs except for the intentional ones . Sabine-chan used 2 point to force the King to write that letter…
Next time, I have to ask about that point system in detail .
No wait! What if I asked to be introduced to that system, and I managed it poorly…?
Dangerous, It’s too dangerous!!
Let’s just forget about this matter…
“And I want you to fulfill Princess Sabine’s wishes in a range that it will not be a hindrance…” (Mitsuha)
I can’t refuse if the King went this far . (Count Bozes)
The Count muttered with a bitter expression while reading the letter .
“ … Okay, I’ll allow it, but I’ll have guide and escort dispatched from my side!” (Count Bozes)
“Eh, an escort for a subjugation squad? It’s like putting a guard on the army…” (Mitsuha)
“No objections!!!” (Count Bozes)
“Yes, I understood…” (Mitsuha)
Thus, it’s decided that the demon subjugation squad for Colette village will be accompanied by an escort from Count Bozes House .
“Just to make sure, Mitsuha, that is not the name of that village…” (Count Bozes)
Waaaiii…
