Chapter 304
Day 74 Morning, The Capital, Souvenir Store Orphanage Branch
A case for public concern emerged in the morning. Yeah, suspicious person eyewitness reports? Or rather, I see nine of them right in front of me I mean, their eyes are crazy!
UOOOOOOOOOOH! Little girls!
All hands, capture them! Dead or Alive!
Jaa!
Thus, suspicious people (the geeks) were apprehended and isolated. The threat to the orphan girls have passed. Alright, lets burn them.
Oooh, Haruka! We are back! And yeah, we plundered tons of goods and money, but Oda-kun and others gave away everything to Beastfolk, so we got nothing?
The Idiots are left to roam free, but they while do pose some issue in educational sense, its fine, Im sure seeing them the orphans will try they hardest not to turn out like that. In a way, this idiots are the top-tier educational material for what not to do.
Long time no see~, Im actually surprised that you came back, Ive already begun to think that you found your new calling in the life of banditry and piracy and going feral returned to the forest? Is this the fruits of Pres-samas training? Like, House(come back)? Sort of?
I thought that they mightve made a jackpot, but they returned penniless, as usual idiots. Im sure they simply came back because they got hungry. Stray idiots?
Haruka-kun, why are we being detained and tied up immediately after coming back?
Its just an arrest operation carried out on eyewitness reports of suspicious individuals? The crime was prevented in a timely manner, so the best course of action would be burning to death, like, in a disaster prevention educational way? Kind of?
And the criminals began complaining. Letting them step into an orphanage too great of a risk after all!
Suspicious individuals? Werent we classmates?!
We finished the mission and went back, we came here only because on the way we found the sign telling us to come here?
To think we would get apprehended before even gettingWelcome back
We just were surprised since there were so many children
Nonono, you didnt get Welcome back because before sayingWere backyou began super overreacting to the children, okay? Its an orphanage, so of course there would be children, if there werent any and it instead had only middle-aged men I wouldve long since burned down the place!
In the first place, with your first line beingLittle girls!uttered in unison, you arent just suspicious, you are real criminals!
The very fact that you reacted only to the little girls makes you suspicious individuals among suspicious individuals worthy of apprehension, the guilty verdict with trial omitted upon the report and instant execution! You Suspicious Geeks!
If you are going to react only to the little girls, the little tanuki is going to be sad and start stress eating, getting a round belly despite not having any bre GYUWAAAAAA!!
I got bitten! The dangerous small animal seems to have snuck up on me before I noticed. Thats right, in the flock of orphans, there is an imposter mimicking them not, she is just being her usual self, but the fact that she is lurking among them is scary!
That aside, can some remove this small animal gnawing me on the head already? Yeah, she is biting in pretty hurt, so it hurts.
And so, we are back.For starters, Id like you to remove these ropes?
Then, a portion of girls is pressing them for the reason why the didnt return right away. Even though that much is obvious without asking?
Yeah, they finally got angry. Thats all.
And so, with the Geeks giving an incoherent retelling of events, additionally supplemented by the Idiots nonsensical commentary, the explanation reached heights of confusing, but Translator Pres-san seems to have solved all of the mysteries.
Yeah, its amazing that she can understand such nonsensical rubbish?
Eerm, in other words, you annihilated the Confederations beastmen hunting force, and also managed to free beastmen captured by them, but then you chased after the ships carrying beastmen captured before that, and ended storming into the Confederations harbors, which led to naval combat, and you thought youd run away since you freed beastmen already, but then Kakizaki-kun and others jumped on the enemy ships and begun to rampage, so you couldnt go back on your own, and since you went to board all other ships in the harbor along the way, freeing all of the beastmen slaves you saw and sinking all of the ships, it took you a while?
Then you went back to the Beastmen Country to bring rescued beastmen to a safe place, gave them all of the goods you plundered, which delayed you even further? Is that it?
Whats what we said.
Perfect translation! As expected of Translation President-san. Her reasoning is so flawless that she mightve already Plundered skillsInterpretationorTranslationsomewhere.
I mean, she managed to get that fromAnimal earsThe fluffWe got to touch themI wanted to touch it so much!Haruka, Im hungryAfter all, the formation of the shipsNo, the bunny earsWhat are you talking about, the Tail-sama wasHaruka, you got anything to eat?!And so we chased the animal ears, and thenThose were some good animals ears!But being too scared, their fluffinessHaruka, I want rice!And so Kakizaki-kun and others went berserkYeah, like the real leap ofAnd if you ask us why we made a cannonThats right, we couldnt hit anything with the projectile even when we threw them by hand?But when we made the cannon to shoot, Slime-sanYeah, Jiggle-Jiggle, it saidand so we turned in the direction it was pointing, and it was the Frontier?And so it flew away And we were wondering if something happened.But Fluffiness is Justice!And so we went to return them, but they were still afraidAnd the villages were burned downHaruka, Im about to starve here!so we left everything there !
By the way, the nine of them were speaking all at once, and 10 times that. Well, it goes without saying that 90% of that was about animal ears and fluff.
For now, they are being noisy, so lets have breakfast. Naturally, the Geeks are getting the farthest seats from the orphans.
Sorry, Haruka-kun, we didnt make it in time. The beastfolk warriors fought so desperately Trying to save children Fought and died. Sorry We didnt make it in time.
Is that so
Yeah
As I thought, I made another mistake. Thats why they went to get back the captured. But they couldnt make it in time anyway In the end, I failed to protect everything again. And the Geeks also understand that they didnt actually rescue them, but came too late instead.
Because the possibility was there. Even so, I overlooked it, thats why they didnt make it in time.
By the way, who is that stunning beauty that chained us up?
Ah, an oriental pretty girl hath descended?
How is she able to tie us up and disable the barrier in the brief moment before its activation?!
Pretty girls in another world are of higher level than 2D!
Aah, you mean Dancing Girl? She is that, that stuff that often happens, that, you know, how should I put it, she is well, that? Well, I Tamed her? (Tehepero)
Aaah he did it again!Just explode already!
Looks like tehepero doesnt work for me the same way it does for Armored Pres-san? Well, she is sly, but also cute, so you end up forgiving her, you know? Yeah, being pretty has benefits?
After calling Dancing Girl and having them greet each other I then warn her not to get anywhere near them to avoid getting infection. Then I let them say hello to the orphans, and told them to immediately report if the Geeks were to approach them.
(Im saying just in case, but her actual name is not Dancing Girl-san, its Nefertiri-san.)
(((No, we were confident thats not her name!)))
(((She seems very strong Did he save her as well?)))
(Yup, again. The orphans here, Nefertiri-san, everything and everyone.)
(((So it was that dangerous here. We are very sorry for being late!)))
(You did what was necessary, didnt you? Haruka-kun was happy with that, saying that you are finally fighting on your on volition.)
(I see.)
Pres-san is chatting with the Geeks? Well, it must be another sermon. Savor the taste of Pres-samas terrifying sermon! Im getting x20 that daily!
Moreover, at least 15 times per day!!!
And we also learned the reason why Slime-san returned by flight. It really was a Slime Cannon. I gave the Geeks magic stone high-explosive projectiles and magic stone bombs for the sake of naval combat. But due to their clumsiness, they couldnt hit the target even when throwing by hand.
Just how clumsy can you be!
So they made a gun barrel and tried to shoot from it, and apparently got 100% accuracy ratio even at long range. Just how skillful are they?!
Normally, it should be a complete reverse, getting a good angle of fire on a shaking ship is more difficult. How come their dexterity isnt getting improved despite getting enhanced by DeX stat? Looks like their Geekness Skill is overriding it.
And sensing the crisis, Slime-san made the Geeks turn the cannon to the Frontier, climbed inside, and launched itself, sending Continental Ballistic Cluster Slime-san. Thats why the Frontier was saved.
It sensed the danger from such a distance Is it because of Taming?
So, what about about animal ears and fluffiness?
They were afraid of humans, so we tried to keep our distance, so forget fluff-fluff, we didnt even get to talk
Thats not surprising. They met in the worst way possible. Even if they saved them, from the beastfolks point of view they are the same humans. It couldve been different if they made in time.
But since they didnt As humans they are nothing more than an object of hatred and fear.
Then what about the people, or rather beastfolk, at the villages?
They were observing us from cover, so we extinguished fires at the villages, arbitrarily made graves, and after loudly declaringWell leave this hereleft, leaving the captured children and goods at the villages.
Forget coming in touch, it seems they were unable to establish any communication at all. Well, its the Geeks and Idiots, so its a question if they wouldve been able to communicate properly even under normal circumstances.
The Confederations fleet was annihilated as the result, so the Beastmen Country should be safe for a while. Even more so if they had their battalion annihilated. They cant afford to carelessly meddle with the Beastmen Country anymore.
And the Geeks hesitant aura have dissipated. Theyve finally made their resolve. Perhaps its not what they were hoping for, but they still became heroes in another world. Although the world they desired was probably not as bad as this Thats why the finally resolved themselves.
Well Good work?
Yes, we are back?
Haruka, another servingHey, this bucket is too smallNot enough burgersA bucket of rice balls!, what about karaage?Another one!!
Its getting noisy again. Am I not allowed to bury them underground? The middle-aged men were supposedly rescued by now, so it should be an empty area. Ah But Underground Dwellers probably would be very annoyed!
No, those are the Idiots, so they might on the contrary find a way to get along Lets leave them alone, I guess?
