(Continued POV Kurisu )
Although… the number of girls around Alex was a lot more than I would like, I must say that it was good that when you ran into some problems at least all those girls didn't hesitate to lend a helping hand!
In that sense, our group was certainly quite close. So now that Rika and those girls were having a bit of trouble, a lot of us were moving to support them.
That was the case with Shisuka and elder lady Lena. Both of them had been working hard to create pills that could help and strengthen those girls even more. Of course, other things that were quite useful for this were all the weapons Saya-chan had constantly sent to them!
Even I had to take a bit of a break from the project I was on to work on some of the weapons that, despite being in our possession, still needed some tweaking to become functional. Like those robots that Alex had brought from Emilia-chan's world... and what was more fearsome and destructive, atomic bombs that... it seems he stole from Revy-san's place!
These things had only been gathering a bit of dust in some of our warehouses… I had only prepared a few of these weapons for Alex's personal use before. Though, honestly, I hope things don't get to the point where we have to use the radioactive stuff... from my world's history, the result of implementing these was one of the most heinous things humanity has ever done!!
Well, I think one of the reasons Alex can be calm whenever he goes to another world is that we have these things with us... according to his words, no person in the Areas we are in could withstand the effect of one of those bombs! Even these could kill people from higher-level Areas!!
Or rather... I really don't know what to think that there were people who could withstand the detonation of an atomic bomb! That's something that just seems unreal to me like seeing a pig flying in the sky... but then again, in this world maybe those two things aren't impossible!!
…in fact, since Alex had one of these weapons with him, I was still a bit worried about what kind of world he was in this time for him to still be unsettled despite that! I really can't imagine anything that can withstand the explosion of such a bomb!!
Maybe it's just that he doesn't want to use it… and I really wish he didn't! The bomb I gave him is one that can only be detonated at close range, so I'm terrified that he might be involved in the explosion!!
...if he hadn't insisted on me so much... and taken advantage of my moments of weakness when we were in bed, I wouldn't have accepted that!
" Kurisu-onesan ... Mom will be fine, right?"
“ Yes, I'm worried about Aunt Haruna too~! ”
"...don't worry, she will surely be fine"
Apart from all that, also Haruna-san had to go to that Area to help. Well, not exactly her… the ones who had to work were rather her two monsters who had a soul in the second realm!
Of course, her departure meant creating a bit of concern for the two little girls that she usually took care of… Iruka-chan, her daughter, and Alice-chan were a bit discouraged and constantly asked about Haruna-san.
“Don't worry, you two. Rika is with her, so surely nothing will happen to her~."
"...Un"
"Okay~"
By Shizuka's words, seeing how confidently she said it, both of them seemed to perk up a bit. Yes, I also agree with what she says, with all the support that side has received from us, everything will surely work out!
“ Well... then let's all get back to what we have to do! ”
""Yes!""
Finally, when Saya brings this meeting to a close, we all get up from our seats to do as she says. Emilia-chan and I had better try a little harder! If things get bad for some reason, it would be nice if Alex came back!!
"...we have to go back to the store, get up... you perverted woman"
“… H-Hyaan~ W-Wait… wait a minute, Celi~!! ”
…before leaving this room, out of the corner of my eyes, I can see how the pair of girls wearing bunny suits start arguing with each other… yes, it seems that although the situation is not the best, at least there is still enough space for us to be a little relaxed… or at least it is like that for some of us!
--------------------------------
--------------------------------
(Rika's POV )
“When I thought that now I could concentrate on doing the things I should do smoothly, new problems arise… haaa~ Seriously, can't I even get some rest?”
"Sorry, it seems that's my fault~"
A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.
“…”
After the problem with the couple of idiots who had their eyes on me and the girls finished, I could only have a few days of peace! The situation in this place began to become tenser and tenser!!
And the cause of all this was now in front of my eyes… a girl a little younger than me with hair as red as Alexander's! Apart from her, there were other people in this room who were also participating in this conversation. Most of them belonged to the [7 Mountains sect] too, and also Haruna who had come here recently.
I wonder if that hair color is an indicator of troublesome people… no, Kurisu-san was quite a calm girl! Although… two out of three already mark a pattern to some extent...
She was a girl I met until recently... and I didn't even have to guess that she had some kind of relationship with that boy! That was just obvious just by looking at her! I'm sure she totally suited his likes!!
Well, now I was a bit used to this I must say. So it's not hard to put aside my personal problems when I see her apologizing. The only thing that annoyed me a bit was that her tone didn't seem remorseful at all... she reminded me a bit of a certain blonde who was also a headache for me!
As she said, it all started when she too joined the [7 Mountains Sect]…since she belonged to one of the biggest influencers in this area, her actions simply couldn't be ignored by others!
But I think she understood this very well… although I said she had a certain similarity with Shisuka, it's just because of her carefree attitude. Unlike that other girl... who sometimes I think has air in her head, her eyes certainly showed that she thought very well about what she was doing!
Anyway, it's not like I can complain to her about this... she is definitely a very important person in this entire Area! I could only bear this. Well... the truth is that I also considered that maybe it was best to just go back to Delna with the other girls, but… I didn't want to give up that easily! I've already gone through several problems because of a redhead, now another one joins it doesn't change things much!!
The good thing is that, at least, until now the problems we have had were only some discussions and fights with small organizations! With the equipment we have, it was not difficult to maintain a firm position and end up having the last word on things against these enemies!
Furthermore, Haruna's help when she arrived also made everything a little easier. At the very least, when word got out that there was someone in our group with two monsters at the second soul level, the smaller organizations stopped causing trouble a little.
…is one of the good things about this place. Here the strength of a single person can deter and prevent others from seeking trouble with you or your group!
“…well, now there are only two problems left… one is those pushy people from that sect who still constantly come to insist that I join them.”
“…”
“ It's not fair, [Strange Feet]! You're hogging all of Haruna's attention!! Vrana also wants to be patted on the head, roock~!!”
Yes, well… not everything can be perfect, right?
With Haruna's fame growing in this place, several people from a monster-taming sect became interested in her! Besides, it seems that they had already had some problems with some of the girls here!
But then, when Haruna was holding one of the little harpies in her arms and Vrana-chan was fighting for attention with her, Rei frowns upon hearing those words.
“…If I had known, perhaps it would have been better to finish with more people from that sect.”
" Fufufu ... said by the girl who didn't agree with that at first."
“H-How was I supposed to know they would be so persistent? Even now it seems like they haven't given up on getting these girls too! ”
From what she and Mary were talking about, it seems that the group of those girls also have their own problems… well, as long as they are in the sect, I think they will hardly have any difficulties. Also, the fact that those people probably know that our group has some relationship with the [7 Mountains Sect], is the reason why they haven't made threats so openly.
"Well... Rika-san, it wouldn't be easier if just this group of girls joined the sect too? I think with that you all would no longer have so many problems.”
"That is…"
Yes, of course I had thought of that too! What the new blonde girl was saying… I think her name was Miu, I understood perfectly! Like I said, back when the girls in that sect could openly intervene, I and the other girls were able to carry out our activities without any problem!!
The only problem with this was...
“...We will not join or accept any orders from anyone other than Alexander-sama!!”
““…””
…that all the other girls in the organization [Alexander-sama's Servants] didn't want to accept this just as they say now! They stood firm in that posture!
I should probably praise the loyalty of these girls, but… now I could only hold my head a bit since I was starting to get a headache again!!
The other girls didn't know very well what to say either when they heard the firmness of those female soldiers... it's not until the redhead, Yulz if I'm not mistaken in the name, speaks that the silence is broken.
“By the way… how many girls have that little guy gathered untlil now? Every time I meet you guys, it seems like I see more and more new faces~.
…I must say that boy is quite amazing…in a way~.”
"...I don't know, I just stopped counting at some point!"
"...yes, that way things can be a little easier"
"That's just because Master is great, fufufu~."
" Roock~, it's true~!!"
““ Un, Alexander-sama is the best man there is~!! ””
““…””
Girls like me and Rei could only answer her question like that... on the other hand, there were many others who took this as some kind of compliment for him! And others just keep silent looking at all this with complex eyes… They were probably wondering which girl group to join!!
“I-I think I should definitely have a serious talk with him again, but… for now, we should focus on solving the problems we have.
While the tamer sect has reservations about doing something, there is another person who may be more troublesome…”
"…It is true."
"I-I'm sorry... it seems that my father has also caused you trouble..."
“You don't have to apologize, brother! It's not your fault!
...I wish that old man would die of a heart attack while having sex!”
“…”
The other problem had to do with the last two who spoke… it seems that they had some misunderstandings with Alexander at first, but now that had been solved. From my point of view, both of them didn't seem to be bad people… t-the only thing that was a bit awkward was the kind of relationship that this pair of brothers had!
I-I still find it quite strange… although, thanks to this, I'm beginning to understand a little more what kind of person we were dealing with now! Somehow, another pervert had his eyes on all the girls in our group… and besides, he didn't hesitate one bit to expose the demands he had on all of us!! They were just pretty crazy things!!
And yes, it seems that man was the father of these two!!
The bad thing was that to a certain extent, being part of the [7 Mountains Sect], he was supposed to be an ally! I did not expect to have to deal with problems coming from the side of allies!!
“Well… as long as 'they' don't move, it can be said that it's still not the worst situation. Cleirsa-san's family should be able to take care of that guy for a bit."
“Y- Yes, Yulz- sama… my grandfather said that he would not let him do whatever he wanted”
"It is true. The ex-King and my grandfather were very grateful for the gifts that Alexander gave them... and with their strength now, then there will surely be no problems! ”
Well, it's reassuring that since he also belongs to that sect, that would be considered an internal problem, and at least that side could act more freely. Unfortunately, the Siscon-prince… I can only call him that, it seemed like he still had something to say.
“The problem is the reason why he decided to act now… I'm sure there's something else behind this, and I'm afraid that maybe it's what Yulz-sama is worried about…”
“…”
Fuck, sometimes I think it would just be better to detonate an atomic bomb! That way, surely everything would be much calmer... or at least many problems would disappear that way!!
...seriously, maybe I should talk to Kurisu about this for a bit.
