âŠâŠ An unfamiliar ceiling.No, Iâm being a bit persistent.
I am currently in the middle of shutting myself away. In the blankets of the bed.(ç§ăŻä»ăç”¶èłćŒăç± ăăäžăăăăăźæŻćžăźäžă«ă)Embarrassing~!I cried. Moreover, bawling, seriously crying! At this age, in an old manâs chest!Oh well, Earl is dandy and a good guy, and Iâm âsupposedly 12-year-oldâ.Should I relax for the next 2 days until the carriage for the capital departsâŠ
I cannot teleport until I get to the capital. I have time, but my absence will likely be noticed. I canât risk it. Well, there is no problem because I already prepared what I needed.Two knives and a short sword, also three handguns and a spare magazine.Didnât I say I canât sell the knife because thereâs only one left? That was about âfolding knives hidden for self-defenseâ. The other one is a Randall hunting knife openly attached to my waist.
Eh, too many weapons? No, they are necessary if I get attacked by thieves or flock of monsters on the way. A revolver and a concealed weapon are required in preparing for jamming and if someone rushes in while Iâm changing clothes. The knives are for emergencies but they can also be used for everyday tasks. Like cutting a goblinâs ear.Oh, thereâs no need for collecting a part of dead bodies, is that so?
The short sword is really just for intimidation. Because even if the handgun is seen, it wouldnât be thought of as a weapon, there is no guarantee that a wicked person who catches and sells people whoâd underestimated me like an unarmed girl and pick a fight wonât appear. Itâs like a protective charm.Oh, I practiced properly, of course!
A few days ago, the captainâs room of the private mercenary group âWolf Fangâ.
ââŠYouâve come, little girlââIâm here, captainâThe captain hangs his head in dejection from Mitsuhaâs return. It is a mercenary âgroupâ but he is called âcaptainâ. No one calls him by his name. He is simply called captain. Things such as their names spreading isnât a good thing for mercenaries. Itâs fine if the name of the group became famous.\n
âWe are ready, come.âFollowing the captain, Mitsuha moves to the training ground.âHo-hoâLooking at the weapons placed on the long desk at the shooting practice ground, Mitsuha raised a happy voice.
âHere are the products from your order. First, a short sword for decoration. Itâs not an antique. Itâs newly built. Antiques are expensive and fragile. With a sheath. Fasten it to a belt. No sword belt. You wonât be able to put that on with a gun beltâ(tn note: The sentences stop short in the original too, I think heâs showing it off while explaining.)Mhm mhm, Itâs small so I could somewhat manage.
âNext, a gun for self-defense. Itâs a Walther PPS. Small and lightweight at 549 grams, Bullets are 9 mm and with 8 shots. If you put one in the chamber as well, itâs nine shots. It should be enough for emergencies. If lighter than this, they become .22 caliber and the lack of firepower becomes a worry. It has a reputation for womenâs self-defense.âMhm mhm, good good.
âMain weapon, Beretta 93R. Itâs a little heavier with 1170 grams, but there are 20 rounds and 15 rounds magazines. Plus one in the chamber. The caliber is also 9 millimeters. Itâs greatest feature is the three-round burst mode. It can switch between normal single-round burst and three-round burst modes. It will run out of ammo If you keep shooting in a frenzy, but it should be effective as the first strike in a time of emergency. Normally use the three-point burst and switch to a single shot when necessaryâHo ho. It is certainly a bit heavy, but the three-round burst seems interesting. Good choice, captain!
âAlso revolver, .38 caliberâ
âŠâŠâŠHuh? the end? Do you dislike revolvers??
âAlso, you can also change the type of bullets in the reserve magazine. Armor piercing rounds thatâll go through a bulletproof vest, or hollow rounds that can deprive fighting strength each shot even if it misses vital points. Steel core rounds when using rifles, tracer or HEIAP rounds if it is a machine gun.O, ohâŠâŠ
âThen, for now why donât you try putting it on and adjusting the holster. After that, general usage, shooting training, simple care, and precautions. I will do the proper maintenance, so bring them back after using it for a while or regularlyâ
So, well, thatâs why the preparation for going to the capital are perfect.Oh, I should have prepared grenades. Failed!Huh, even if you have weapons can you kill people, you ask? \nI can kill, naturally. Is there a reason not to kill anyone?
I wouldnât kill ordinary people, of course. Thatâs obvious. But thereâs no reason why I shouldnât kill someone whoâs going to kill me. What, respect the other partyâs life and silently be killed? No no no no!If you capture them couldnât you admonish them without killing? Theyâre going to hit back as soon as they get away, or attack someone else. How many pure and honest people will have the misfortune of being murdered by the overlooked scoundrels. In that case, the people overlooking them are as good as the killers.If people go off the road of being human, call them âfiendâ, theyâre not human anymore. As in, itâs fine to exterminate them.Also, even if itâs not a fiend, you can kill enemy soldiers. No, although they might be feeding a family and be a good husband and father at home, well, if they come to kill their opponents by choosing such a profession themselves, they shouldnât complain even if they are killed. I feel sorry for the drafted people who are being to forced to fight, but at the point where I value my life and my opponent is trying to kill, thereâs no helping it anymore.
However, what is with the protagonist who worries about killing the enemy in movies. Donât you think itâs stupid. Their friends or lovers get killed while they hesitant. Then they hesitant even more, and regrets it⊠It makes you think, kill your enemy for the time being and then take your time to think, doesnât it.Eh, you donât think so, is that so?(tn note: I have never seen this movie but I feel like I seen this in anime somewhere. Also, Mitsuha daydreams a lot)
âMitsuha-chan, itâs lunch time!âWhile I was escaping from reality, someone has come to pick me up. Mr. Butler, did you refrain from coming in to wake a woman worn-out from crying? Yes, indeed, a good butler is different. Your name is Sebastian, is it not. Oh, Stefan? Itâs different, is that so?
At the dining table. Awkward.No, theyâre all are smiling at me. Didnât touch anything about yesterday. âŠBut that consideration hurts!Iâm so embarrassed that I canât look straight at earl-samaâs faceâŠâŠEarl-sama talks to me about various concerns. Eh, an invention? Making salt? Developing sweets?ăNo, no, no, no, what did you say, yesterdayâs me!! No, for now, please act as if we didnât have that conversion!
Which do you prefer? What? Oh, about your sons, is that so?No, Iâm not interested in either, right now. Please tell us again if you have to sell something else in a hurry, thank you. What, why are you depressed, both of youâŠ. I do not mind having Beatrice-chan. Huh, donât call me âChanâ? Call me onee-sama? If I marry your brother, you would be my imouto, Beatrice-chan. Youâll definitely stop it? Yes, good luck, Iâm rooting for you.
After the meal, the scramble has begun.For what? No, for me, but.Earl-sama wants to talk about agriculture, forestry, taxation and special products. Iris-sama seems to be plotting something with Beatrice-chanâs clothes. Alexis-sama invites me on a long ride. No, I canât ride a horse.Theodor wants to hear a lot about knives. No well, things like forging, coalescence, carbon content, and quenching, I have some half-baked knowledge but, youâre going to talk with a girl about cutlery, is that so.
\nAlright, with this I can teleport as much as I want, letâs get serious to secure a base and make money!
