When Hiiro left the room, the shock of his words left Shinobu Akamori and Shuri Minamoto speechless for a while. All that they could do was continuously overlap their sighs continuously.
Following this, Shinobu sat on the floor with her hands on her knees while quietly muttering.
just what should we do? (Shinobu)
Whether those words were actually directed towards soone, or if she simply wanted to voice out those thoughts, even she herself did not know the real reason why she said that.
She wanted an answer as to what she should do. She wanted soone to answer that. Because that would be easier. In particular, since she had co to this world, she had obeyed the orders of another and lived without having to seek out any answers.
It was possible to say that their environnt had been manipulated. Even so, like Hiiro said, it still would have been possible to hold their own opinions within that and move while thinking on their own. That was sothing that they had not done.
That was exactly why she had been incapable of refuting Hiiros lecture that could have been thought to be too severe.
Those feelings were similarly held by Shuri as well, who, upon realizing it after being told, truly felt that she was quite shaful.
Although what Hiiro said didnt have an exact basis, it was correctyes, it was possible to judge it to be correct.
On one hand, it could be said that, because they were words he could say due to how strongly he had lived in this world, they had persuasive power.
And so, she felt that they couldnt continue being like this. While Hiiros words had been relentless, she could sohow feel that he had told them so in order to open their eyes.
That was exactly why she felt that, this ti, they had to think carefully about what it was they should do now and reach the answer on their own.
.Shinobu-san (Shuri)
Hm? What is it Shuri.hi? (Shinobu)
Upon raising her face to look at Shuri, Shinobu was involuntarily rendered speechless upon gazing at Shuris serious expression.
Shinobu-san, Ive decided. (Shuri)
.decided what? (Shinobu)
Upon hearing Shuris decision, Shinobu stiffened with an astonished expression.
A person that seed to be an Evilasoldier approached Hiiro and co. outside of the inn. The reason he had co was to extend an invitation to co to the castle to Hiiro, who had made many great achievents in this war.
Hiiro had at least been told by the Maou, Eveam, that once the war settled down, she would send over soone to call him over. Although she had said once it settled down, they had only managed to expel the beastn from the country so far. It seed that the beastn still remained hidden near the country, but, for now, the imdiate threat had been removed.
From what he had heard from the soldier, currently, the eyes of the soldiers deployed in the surroundings of the country were sparkling with motivation. Thus, even if sothing happened, they would be able to move imdiately. As the situation had cald down in comparison to earlier, Eveam wanted to invite Hiiro and co. to the castle so that she could also introduce them properly to her subordinates. Therefore, she had decided to have Hiiro follow the soldier there.
Ah, what are you guys gonna do? (Hiiro)
Hiiro turned his eyes towards Liliyn and co.
Umm.would they happen to be your companions? (Soldier)
Amongst them were ones that couldnt be seen as Evila, so the soldier gazed at them with doubtful eyes.
For now, I suppose (Hiiro)
Upon hearing that, the soldier gave a thoughtful look and said,
If thats the case, then there shouldnt be any problems. If they are Hiiro-donos companions, then I will guide them with all my being. (Soldier)
I see. You guys wanna co? (Hiiro)
The first one to bite into that offer was Mikazuki.
If youre invi~ted to the castle, does that an theres gonna be a al!? (Mikazuki)
Eh, ah, that.well, it is being prepared but- (Soldier)
Waa~! (Mikazuki)
At the soldiers words, Mikazukis eyes shined radiantly. A shaful amount of drool also began to spill out as well.
Th-then I want to go as well! Im so hungry! (Nikki)
It was Nikki who jumped on the bandwagon.
Fumu, then what do you guys wanna do, Aka-Loli? (Hiiro)
Hmph, theres no way I wo. (Liliyn)
Nofofofofofo! Of course we will accompany you! By all ans, we would love to join you in going there! Nofofofofo! (Silva)
Feeeeeee! C-Can soone like go too!? H-H-How gracious! B-B-B-But, Ive always wanted to go at least once! (Shamoe)
As if they were obstructing Liliyns words, the two attendants unanimously fired off words as they liked.
Give up Aka-Loli, they completely intend on going (Hiiro)
As Liliyn scratched her head, she displayed absolutely no desire to go.
Do you hate it that much? There might be so delicious food you know? (Hiiro)
Hm..iya, mutheres a fellow I dont want to et at the castle (Liliyn)
Hou (Hiiro)
Looking at her, it certainly seed like there was soone she didnt want to et as she frowned reluctantly. For an existence like her, who wore arrogance like clothes, the existence of a person that she hated this much sprouted a bit of interest to Hiiro. However, coercing her would be troubleso.
Then do you want to stay here alone? (Hiiro)
After being told that by Hiiro and thinking for a bit, Liliyn looked at how rry Silva and co. were being as she heaved a large sigh.
Iya well, I suppose Ill just try going for now. I dont know if Ill actually end up eting them after all. (Liliyn)
It seed that it had ended with everyone accepting the invitation.
Then shall we go? (Hiiro)
Just as Hiiro said that,
Please take us as well (Shuri)
Seeing the person who had said that, even Hiiro was montarily at a loss of words.
The person in question was Shuri. Behind her, Shinobu could also be seen. The question of why they had decided to appear at that place, at that mont, erged within him.
In front of them stood the Evilasoldier. If he was soone who knew their faces, then another troubleso event might occur.
are they your acquaintances? (Soldiers)
Naturally, it was the soldier who had asked. It seed that the soldier didnt know that the two girls were heroes. But he honestly worried about how exactly he should respond. This was because the two of them had the external appearance of Humas.
If he said they werent companions, then it would lead to a discussion about why exactly humans were here. Because of their appearance, it would beco obvious that they were humans who had co to participate in the war. Upon judging that, the chances of a battle resulting were high.
If he said that they were his companions and they were investigated later, itd be revealed that they were heroes. At that point, itd be annoying to explain why he had said they were companions.
(These guys..theyve really done a troubleso thing now) (Hiiro)
As he instinctively turned a displeased face towards the two girls, upon seeing Shuris expression he went, Oh?
(She) (Hiiro)
On Shinobus face, although it was a bit cloudy, it seed to be coloured with determination as well.
(I see. So theyre trying to move a bit forward) (Hiiro)
However, as their thod involved dragging him into it, Hiiro beca sullen. Realizing Hiiros feelings, Shuri lowered her head.
Im sorry Okamura-kun! (Shuri)
. (Hiiro)
But right now, we do need Okamura-kuns power after all! Please take us with you! (Shuri)
It seed that they felt bad about dragging him into it. Shinobu similarly lowered her head.
Seeing the two of them lowering their heads, Hiiro thought,
(.I dont have any obligation to do what they want, but itd be annoying to have to think of an excuse. And Im also a bit interested in seeing what kind of answer that Maou will give) (Hiiro)
More importantly, he didnt want to waste any more ti here. He wanted to enjoy the delicious al as soon as possible.
.fine. But I wont take responsibility for whatever happens at the castle, alright? (Hiiro)
As he said so, Shuri, who had been vigorously lowering her head, bead.
Thank you very much! Really! (Shuri)
As she seed to dislike the smile Shuri sent to Hiiro, Liliyns eyebrow twitched as she made an unhappy face.
Oi! Were going to the castle, right! Lets get going already Hiiro! (Liliyn)
Liliyn aggressively grabbed Hiiros hand and brought him to the soldier, as if she were tearing him away from Shuri.
O-Oi, let go! I can walk on my own! (Hiiro)
Aaa~thats sly, Liliyn-dono! (Nikki)
As Nikki and Mikazuki said that, they attempted to take Hiiros other hand but,
Pokan! Pokan!
The pitiful two each received a punch on the head from Hiiro. And as he swung off Liliyns hand-
I told you that I can walk on my own (Hiiro)
His mouth made a displeased look and he headed towards the soldier.
Ahh Shishou! Please wait! (Nikki)
Dont leave behind! (Mikazuki)
Even after being hit, the two of them didnt want to leave Hiiros side. They each stayed on one side of him and walked together with him. Seeing that, even the soldier sohow had a peaceful feeling.
Ahaha, then please follow (Soldier)
The soldier guided them as they walked to the castle.
Having had her hand forcefully torn away, Liliyn stared at the hand she had been grasping with a red face. Even though he was capable of reading that mood, but dared to ignore it, the butler then said-
Nofofo, Ojou-sama, would you like to hold my hand? It can be my right or left hand, ah, or if youd like, I can even piggy-back and hug you! (Silva)
Why dont you just go and hug the wall! (Liliyn)
Dogasu!
Ugaahh!? (Silva)
Silva received a trendous slap and was sent flying into the wall of a nearby building.
Feeeeeee!? Are you alright, Silva-sama! (Shamoe)
Leave that pervert alone, Shamoe! Lets hurry up and go! (Liliyn)
U-u-u-u-u-u-understood! (Shamoe)
Oi, you two as well, hurry up and co! (Liliyn)
As Liliyn said that in a displeased manner to Shuri and co., the two of them, who had been gazing at the scene in a dumbfound manner, hastily began following after the group.
