When Hajime didn’t show any reactions, Shia looked back at Hajime. However, before Shia opened her mouth, Cam called out in a strong tone for her to stop as he guessed her intentions.
[Shia!]
It was shocking! so much that Shia’s body was shaking.
Cam and them had no intentions of asking for Hajime’s help in the first place. The situation was their own consequence for falling for the Emperors trap. Here, relying on Hajime’s powers and entrusting him with the solution would mean that nothing has changed. As Cam said, this is a fight to carry on the Usagininzokus pride which is on the line.
And, Shia also understood that. She could also only run away before so she understands, Now, there is the pride of being Hajime and Yue’s companion. But, she feels sad that her family has to make a gamble with such bad stakes.
In the end, Shia kept quiet without being able to say anything.
Hajime, glanced at Yue for an instant and scratched his head then sighed. And, as you would expect, Yue’s eyes softened and noded as she understood what he wanted to convey. Hajime smiled a little and calls out to Shia who was looking down.
[Shia]
[Hajime-san….]
Shia’s eyes showed expectations slightly.
[This time there’s no way I can fight]
[I….I see. That’s right]
But, the words followed by Hajime caused her to look down again. In the back Kouki is shouting something, disregarding that the electrical current from the black katana caused him to faint when hit from the side, Hajime grabbed Shia’s cheeks which were sunk due to jumping to a hasty conclusion.
[Oi, you, don’t jump to a hasty conclusion. Though I won’t fight, I didn’t say I wouldn’t help did I?]
[Fe?]
To Hajime’s words, a silly reply was given while her cheeks were being stretched. Kam’s group also looked at one another with a bemused expression trying to interpret the meaning of Hajime’s words.
[This matter, the Hauria family must show their strength. You should let the other party know that the Hauria tribe is not an easy opponent. The Demi-human discrimination is common sense in this world, if I fight to protect them, the same situation would begin again when I’m gone. Above all, there is Cam and their wills. Thats why, I will not take one step in this battle]
There Hajime patted Shia’s cheeks and turned his gaze to Cam.
[However, our energetic companion is making this kind of face, if you thought I’ll obediently stay out of this matter, your greatly mistaken?]
[H, however, boss….then, just what….]
To Cam who displayed a deep perplexity, Hajime with a fearless grin declared.
[Cam, and the Hauria tribe. All of this guys odd strategies are hereby rejected. You all directly point your blades at the Emperor’s neck. Grab his hair and drag him down, his relatives, his friends, pin down all of his subordinates in front of him. Suppress the Imperial castle, if help does not come, the Empire would be finished by the end of night! engrave it into their bones that the Hauria tribe can finish them anytime they want! Anywhere in this world, there is no safe place, if you antagonize the Hauria tribe, the neck cutting parade begins, force them to write it into their Empire’s history!]
Silence fills the area. Everyone became drunk of stiffness from Hajime’s spirit. ~Gokuri~ The sound of saliva being swallowed could be heard clearly.
Hajime while glaring at the surroundings, shouted out in an angry voice which could be mistaken as thunder which makes everyone breathless.
[What’s your answer! You “Beep’s”!]
[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [~!? S, Sir, Yes, Sir!!] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]
[I can’t hear you! You maggots plan to go to war like that! In the end are you guys just a group of “Beep’s”!?]
[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [Sir, No, Sir] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]*There’s one extra bracket now to emphasize their voices lol*
[If you’re not, then prove it! Rather than going after the small fry, go for the King!!]
[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [Gung Ho! Gung Ho! Gung Ho!] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]*google the phrase if you dont understand*
[With the blade of revenge and the guts that you’ve sharpened, cut down anyone who obstructs you!]
[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [Behead! Behead! Behead!] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]
[I’ll thoroughly prepare you, the lead role belongs to you guys! I won’t permit halfheartedness! Do you understand!]
[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [Aye, Aye, Sir!!!] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]
[Very well! Get fired up! The new Hauria tribe, with 122 people…..]
[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [.......] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]
[You will bring down the Imperial castle!]
[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [YAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]
What do you plan on preparing, isn’t it impossible to bring down the Imperial castle, such thoughts and doubts flew away from the heads of the Hauria who were completely excited.
The person that calls himself boss is saying that he’ll give them the key that opens the door to them. Then, if they don’t wait and go on cutting their obstacles that lie ahead, it’ll be the shame of the new Hauria tribe. They won’t be able to show their face in public and even to Hajime who trained them. Therefore, the Hauria’s heart and minds become one, they were burning up with fighting spirit to bring down the Imperial castle.
In the rock zone away from the Imperial capital, the shouts of fighting spirit and murderous intent resounds.
[U~u, Shizu, Shizu, those people are scary~]
[You’ll be alright, Suzu. I’m scared too…...I mean, in the first place Nagumo-kuns idea is already scary in itself]
[Nagumo-kun, that guy…….Hehe, who would have thought that he’d take on the role of HarOman-sensei, he’s not too bad]
[Ryutaro!? Why, do I sense a little intimacy!? No matter how you look at it, its an abnormal atmosphere!?]
Shizuku and them could only stare with a dumbfounded expression at the Hauria who were wrapped in a strange heat. A smile seems to have appeared on one person who was in awe and increased his respect towards Hajime.
[U~mu, this is awesome~. For the Usagininzoku to change this much. As expected of master. To make crushing the Empire the goal immediately. I can’t get enough of this~. I want to be abused with such spirit]
[.....Shut up, perverted dragon]
[~!? haha]
[Un, Teio-san read the mode a little? Rather than that, look at Shia’s expression, Yue. She melted]
[.......N, cute. So that Shia doesn’t cry…..it’s obvious I’m happy]
[That’s right~. It is good, I also want that kind of thing said to me~]
Yue, did she know this was going to happen from the beginning, the darkness in Shia’s eyes were wiped out and it gradually softened, though Kaori feels relieved when she sees so, she was also envious of Shia.
Afterwards, Hajime gave out the details of bringing down the Imperial castle, it was then decided that they would rest in preparation until that time.
Shia, for a while did not want to part from Hajime’s side. Her usual energetic self was rather silent, However, she wasn’t depressed, she snuggled up while blushing and held onto the hem of Hajime’s clothes quietly.
Her Usamimi’s occasionally when touching Hajime backed off and touch again. As it is, it’s nothing but showing feelings of wanting to be by Hajime’s side.
