Day 68 Morning, Souvenir Store Orphanage Branch.

And so the morning came. Although its only for a short while, Haruka-kun is going to disappear again. And the problem is that there wasnt a single time when he wasnt doing something dangerous when left on his own, with a 100% record of anxious suspicions coming true, which might as well be considered a certain conviction by now.

Ill be going then, but there wont be any issues at the start, so you dont need to hurry too much, okay? But when the call comes I want you to rush there. Make sure to come in full battle gear with complete combat readiness? If I call you its probably going to mean that, so if I dont call you it doesnt really matter? Well, thats it, make sure to make your preparations.

I dont understand how facing an army of more than 30,000 all by himself is not an issue, while what is going to happen after that worries him But he isnt joking.

Sure, leave this place to us. And this time we will definitely come to your side when you need us. So call us any time. We were preparing for that very moment all this time. So we could fight together, instead of just being protected by you. Thats why our preparations are long done. Good luck, and please, be seriously careful.

Ill be heading out then? Or rather, since my home is at the Frontier anyway, its more like, Ill be going home? Thank you very much? Kind of?

Why the last words of someone heading to fight a war alone are Ill be going home? Thank you very much?? This makes him sound like a very violent wife who goes off to vent her anger on an army? But I think even an army would rather run from such a lady.

Take care~

Big brother, you promised~

During the breakfast, Haruka-kun spoke with each child one by one, making a pinky swear that he will take those who are interested to the Frontier. Putting aside the credibility of a pinky promise made by a person whose finger will literally grow back were they to lose it, and the question of their humanity too He did make a promise to them.

Thats why the children were able to send him off with smiles.

Now, the children, and also this souvenir store, the cornerstone of provision supply, have to be protected until the countless people living in the Capital are safely liberated. Thats why we have to stay. How frustrating, even though we understand everything, even though we discussed this beforehand, even though everyone agreed to this, its still frustrating. After all, he is heading out all on his own again.

Once again, without Angelica-san or Slime-san by his side, all on his own, he is just disappearing from sight, like it happened many times before.

I mean, someone has to protect the people of the Capital? So it needs the heroes (the girls) to stay? At Murimuri Castle its fine to just kill, so I can handle it. The right person for the right job at the right time at the right place? Put like this it begins to look like an amazing plan, which gives me confidence that it will go alright?

The plan, he says. But since it Begins to look like, he must be acting on something that just occurred to him without much consideration, but you lose if you actually worry about the lack of planning in the plan.

Alright, lets prepare to open the store. If we dont rake profits, the self-proclaimed magnate, that has less money than beggars in the slums, is going to be angry.

Ro~ger!

The third division has collapsed, having only a few thousands troops remaining, however, the local nobles have gathered their forces, plus various mercenary bands are also joining them. With the addition of ruffians and vagabonds their numbers reached 31 thousand And they are still growing.

However, numbers dont matter, the real danger is the support from the Theocracy. Magic tools, arrangements to overcome the Fake Dungeon, and enough force to take Murimuri Castle. They are coming because they are confident in success. Well, it most likely comes from overestimating their abilities, but they still must have something prepared.

But just like the opponents have something up their sleeve, Haruka-kun has something even more outrageous.

Good grief, challenging Haruka-kun to a contest of annoyance, this is beyond recklessness and just plainly asking to be abused. If the Kingdom or the Theocracy had anyone capable of harassing, trapping, duping, or tricking others on the same level as Haruka-kun, this world wouldve been either unified or destroyed a long time ago.

There seems to be a belief in foreign countries that apologizing or taking a humble attitude equals loss, but trying to apply pressure to Haruka-kun will most definitely mean self-destruction due to the difference in pressure ratio.

If they simply apologized and came to honestly purchase magic stones, nothing wouldve happened. Rather, that was Haruka-kuns goal all along for which he was secretly working all this time.

But it turned into a war. As a result, Haruka-kun ended up having to stand on the battlefield all alone and kill people. He worked more than anyone to avoid the war, he did everything possible to create the opportunity for negotiations, and yet in the end all of it was for nothing. They ruined all of it.

He worked so hard so there would be no need for a war, sparing no effort to avoid bloodshed, but despite the lengths he went, it still didnt work. If they say that the Church and their god cannot forgive his actions, then they are free to suit themselves. I have no desire to be praised, acknowledged, or forgiven by a god that doesnt raise a finger while Haruka-kun is working so hard to create the future where everyone can live happily and peacefully! We will gladly send (kick) back teachings of such a god, with ribbon, wrapping, rhinestone decoration and payment on delivery attached!

After all, all he was dreaming of was simple happiness for the Frontier.

He merely wanted to make everyone smile.

There is no reason for a god to exist if he cant accept even such a little thing.

A god that doesnt wish that shouldnt exist. We are the ones who wouldnt forgive it!

If their god is justice and Haruka-kun is evil for going against it, then Im fine with us being evil. I dont want any of such justice.

If dreaming of happiness for everyone means evil that goes against the will of the god, then there is no need for any talks anymore. I dont care about their teachings, nor am I willing to forgive them.

We are seriously angry.

They couldnt forgive even that small bit of peace that Haruka-kun was trying to create. Without having any idea just how difficult it was to bring happiness to the Frontier!

We are seriously angry.

Because we know just how precious, wonderful, beautiful, and miraculous the prospering Frontier is. Because we know just how much Haruka-kun fought for it.

We are seriously furious.

He was stealthily working to protect the Frontier, seeing a peaceful resolution where no one has to die or fight a war. While feigning ignorance, he was working incredibly hard. And yet it was all put to waste and ruined, and now they are even trying to invade the Frontier.

There is no way not to get angry at that, there is no way such a thing can be forgiven! Because they stomped with their dirty shoes the feelings of the single good person that single-mindedly believed in the possibility of a happy end!

Haruka-kun was fighting merely for that small happy end for the Frontier.

He is getting angry for others, suffering for others, crying for others, and fighting for others. No matter how much he pretends, in the end, he is just making an uproar about the happiness of others. Without any care for himself, casually putting his life on the line left and right. Crying and getting angry for the sake of others, yet doing nothing for himself.

Thats why we will get angry. If Haruka-kun only gets angry for others, then we will get angry instead. We will get completely furious. That is way too cruel after all, way too pitiful.

Thats why we are enraged.

Haruka-kun was worried about exposing us to danger until the very end. He is regretting pulling us into the conflict.

But this is long since our fight too, since we are seriously angry about this. And for Haruka-kuns sake we are going to get his share of anger too. This is our anger now! This is our fight now, we werent dragged into this neither does it have nothing to do with us, we are going to fight out of our own volition and rage. Because they absolutely cant be forgiven!

They trampled and insulted Haruka-kuns feelings, Haruka-kuns wishes, that little Happiness that Haruka-kun was hoping for, his simple hope to merely protect. Thats why we absolutely cant forgive them! Thats why we absolutely wont!

That was the consensus and the true will of the girls-only gathering.

Thats why we will finish the Capital here. And then head to the Frontier.

Getting busy with two stores plus peddling today, we will finish off the Capital with this offensive. There, the capital will fall.

The conclusion to this play was already written, and both the stage and the actors were prepared, it definitely will go smoothly. After all, Ive never seen such a villainous scenario!

The Capital will definitely fall with this, there is no way it can withstand.

The Capital that was famed for its impregnable walls and rock-solid defenses is going to fall to the broiled eel and bargain sales. That is the predetermined ending.
