Side: Yuki


    For the time being, the princess of the wind is stupefied, so there is a problem even before negotiations.


    While we waited for everything to normalize, we went to the opportunist elder to talk, but


    Well done!! I believed in you!!


    Talking big to someone who didnt send reinforcements, huh?


    Next to the elder, the man who was always criticizing us said something in a good tone so I silenced him with a sarcastic remark.


    Im sorry. As a vige, weve been ying it safe


    The elder bowed his head deeply.


    No, I dont think you guys made the wrong choice. Its just that when you get hand-waved back as he did earlier, it feels, you know how, right?


    I guess


    Now you know what were capable of, dont you? For the time being, any prisoners we get on this matter are ours to deal with. I wont take your opinion, and thats what Im going to do.


    What did just say!?


    Haa Do whatever you want, being hostile or not. If you want to get in our way, I wont be going easy. Regardless of the oue of the joint operation, the results this time were obtained by us alone. Naturally, we get to manage the prisoners and supplies we have at our disposal, dont we?


    Its reasonable-jana. After all, we were waiting and seeing the result and we did not send reinforcements at all. I wont let him take the spoils from you all. So please, forgive this man for his tyranny


    Its okay since theres no real harm done. Well, if you try to get your hands in our spoils in any way, Ill take care of it myself, okay?


    It would be nice if you could inform me if something were to happen. After all, you dont want to offend the vige, do you?


    There would be no need for such a thing unless you go too far. Try hard not making it easy for us to destroy this vige


    If you ask me if I want to risk my life to protect the vige, I say no.


    Because the purpose of our defense system is simply to protect the ruins and dungeons.


    They would be no different from an enemy if they were to bring us harm.


    It seems that for you all were just an extra bonus-jana


    What, you just figured that out? You thought we were just a convenient mercenary group? After all, you didnt even send reinforcements in that battle, and you were already prepared to flee when the opportunity arose


    I cant do anything if Im told that


    Elder! Why are you letting them do as they please!!


    One young man barks.


    What the hell is he saying? You people were the first to do as you pleased.


    Calm down. We were the first to tie these mercenaries to our people-ja. No matter how you think about it, we were the ones who did as we pleased, after all-ja


    But!!


    But, whats your n? Do you n of fighting against this group of mercenaries? An opponent who defeated 2500 soldiers with only 150?


    That was only because we were there together with our people!! Its not the fruits of that person from the human race!!


    Haa, I havent received any report about three beast folk having eliminated 2500 enemy troops. One hundred goblins crushed the charging cavalry. And 50 or so ambush troops that were on the nk has annihted the enemys main force


    Thats an exaggeration, of course! Im sure everything its because of those girls and that that man from the human race has nothing to do with it


    An exaggerating, you say? Could my fellow vigers who took the trouble of monitoring them report such a thing-nou?


    Aah, I had intended to arrange it so that it wouldnt be like this, but this kind of problemes up after all.


    So, even if it was an exaggeration, and even if these three beast folk girls were able to pull it off, it wouldnt change the battle results of the mercenary group. Are you going to take that away from them?


    Im not. In the first ce, those girls were forcibly taken over by that man of the human race..


    *Boom!!*


    The cat-eared beast folk youth who had beenining broke through the wall and flew out.


    No, Riel was the one who threw him outside, but the people in the vige only saw this young man flying out.


    Shall we shut up now? I think Im starting to regret a little bit saving you


    Seeing Riel lowering her fist, the vigers seemed to figure out that Riel had done something about the young man flying out.


    Im the same. For the sake of the people of the same race as me, I helped them by ignoring your instructions, and this is the result


    Yuki, theres no need to negotiate. From the beginning, we should have them follow us, or make them go away if they didnt. These guys arepletely making fun of us


    Tori, too, states an unusually strict opinion and looks at the vigers as if they were trash.


    As for Kaya, she is very angry with the way the vige is handling the situation, saying that we should bring fear to the negotiations.


    In short. Hiiiiiiiiiiiiii, these three girls snapped.


    Rather, mocking Yuki-san is out of the question. You mock a womans husband and then ask him to give you more of his spoils of battle? Youre an idiot!!


    Its exactly like Riel said. Yuki-san is stillughing, so I wont do anything about it, but in the unlikely event that you even try to step in Yuki-sans shadow, be prepared.


    Tori is also soft. Ill kill you all in that case. Or rather, its more difficult to defeat Yuki than to defeat us


    Ah, the problem here is how Im treated impolitely rather than the result of the war, huh?


    Im d Asurin and the others arent here.


    Just because I was ridiculed, they acted recklessly in the Litea war. It shouldnt be strange for the situation to be a bloodbath by now.


    Ria, its okay


    Eh, can I kill them?


    Its not that!!


    Ah, its hopeless. It seems that even the blood got into Rias head.


    I shouldnt say what happened to the pregnant group. Or this vige will disappear.


    Well, it seems that wecked a little of manners and lost ourposure. Lets pull out of here for now. We dont want to have to pluck the life weve deliberately saved ourselves. Please discuss carefully here


    Saying so I left the meeting ce.


    Well, their only options are to run away or obey.


    After all, Riel, Tori, and Kaya proimed that they should be eliminated.


    It would be a big explosion if after all this I say, lets have equal rtionships, right? Of course, Im talking about my wives.


    However, Im sure the bloodthirsty demi-human who has a lot of grudge against the human race would have that kind of reaction.


    I know how you feel, but if you make that choice, youre going to die, okay?


    The elder has it tough being the one who has to persuade the others~. As expected, its good to have a job where you can take it easy, isnt it?


    Oh, Yuki-san, wee back. Marley-san has finally cooled down


    Upon returning, Shera reported immediately,


    Shera has been doing more as royalty than I, so she is the most charismatic in terms of fieldmand, among the expedition members,


    Its not like I cant do it, but I have the policy of not using as much as possible such convenient tools, besides, Sheras familiarity with them is better than mine.


    I see. Then, Ill try going there


    Yes, please. We have frightened them. If Yuki-san and Ria who are acquaintances are going to see them, then maybe they will talk


    Are they scared?


    Yes. Its because they were annihted by less than a tenth of their troops, and Marley seems to have fought directly with Steve, so she felt the difference in power


    Its not like I dont understand it, but is it okay for a general to be like that?


    I dont know very well, but I guess it cant be helped. From the soldiers, weve been treating until now, and Yuki-sans information gathering, Marley-san seemed to be unbeatable so far. I guess her foundation was destroyed in a matter of seconds


    It should be the effect of relying on the magic sword to raise her level.


    Im sure youve had your fair share ofpetition with a little strong people in the past, but were literally out of your league.


    I should try meeting them I suppose. Ria, Im swapping with Doppel, who met the princess, but want to go first?


    I think so. Were both women, so Ill go ahead and have a chat with them. Instead, Shera-san, Ill ask you to escort Yuki-san


    Please leave it to me


    Eh its not too much a bodyguard?


    No, it isnt


    I wonder how much they care about me?


    There are times when I want to be alone, but then I remember that there are times when I can rx at home alone.


    If I take one step outside, Ria will follow me, Im sure I can get rid of her, butter I will be scolded in a big way.


    I should swap with Doppel now, or rather, I should switch from Doppel to Doppel


    It has beplicated. In the new continent, theres a Doppel who looks exactly like me and a Doppel in disguise.


    Lets go to Rias ce instead of thinking about stupid things.


    If I let Shera be my escort, then the rest of the department would stop.


    Hi. Ria, how its going on?


    Oh, Yuki-san


    Aah!! You were themander of this mercenary group!! Or rather, how you got here faster than us!!


    Ria easily catches the princess who throws herself onto me.


    Guuu


    Marley-san, you are a prisoner. Please stop behaving that way towards our leader. Next time your neck and torso will be separated, okay?


    Nugugu


    Fumu, they look fine to me.


    The vige should be done with their talk, so I wonder if we can finally move forward with negotiations?


    Now, what shall we negotiate~?
