So, that was the case, I went to Colette Village, Count Bozes Territory.
(Note: What?)
āLike I said, this village donāt have such a name, Mitsuha!ā (Colette-chan)
Colette-chan made a complaint.
Well, I would also be embarrassed if the town where I live is called āMitsuha townāā¦
Okay, letās reach out the Count and make him change the village name to [Colette Village].
This time, Iām here not as a lord or her employer, so Colette-chan is in [Friend Mode]. So, she called me [Mitsuha]. On the other hand, Sabine-chan calls me [Onee-sama] on her usual mode and calls me [Mitsuha] on her Princess Mode. ā¦ Itās rather complicated.
Right now, there are me, Colette-chan, Sabine-chan, Wolf Fangās Captain and the two Members, Andā¦
ā ā¦ and, why are you here Count-sama? Even Iris-sama, Alexis-sama, and Theodore-sama tooā¦ā (Mitsuha)
The absence of Beatrice-chan is good on one side, but on the other side itās also scary.
āI told you, right? Guide and escortā (Count Bozes)
And behind Count-sama, thereās also the villageās Hunter and 30 soldiers.
āToo many! And how in the world the number of guides increased to four?!ā (Mitsuha)
No, even if the opponent is Count-sama, Iāll angry when I have to be angry!\n
āI told you, did I not?! I want permission because thereāre sacred soldiers from my home country came to experience monster subjugation!ā (Mitsuha)
I am seriously in anger.
Yes, Iām pretty sure I explained it to the Count.
At the time of the absolute defense when the Royal Capital was attacked, they only used the power of the sacred treasure from afar, so they hoped to experience in closer fight. That was the setting I explained.
By the way, I also add something to the setting, it is said that monsters have been exterminated long ago in our home country and its surrounding.
And I also explained that they came by using small high-speed boat.
For the 3 Wolf Fangās member, they knew that my transfer capacity is much less restrictive than what I told the national delegates. ā¦ or rather, I talked about it myself. Otherwise, it would be inconvenient to ask for reinforcements in case of emergency or when I need a large sum of weapon and supplies. It may be time to buy a light armored vehicle.
Driving? I can do it, you know! If I can adjust the seat so that my feet can reach the pedals that isā¦
But with a 5.56mm machine gun, the armament might be a bit lacking. Itās enough if the opponent were human, but monsters might not be enough. Here we might need, a light scout vehicle equipped with a 25mm main gun and a 7.62mm secondary gun, and an armored combat vehicle equipped with 35mm main gunā¦. Tte, what did Yamano territory intended to fight?!!
No, well, anyway, I demanded to reduce the number of escorts.
Actually, we donāt even need escorts, the 3 Wolf Fang member is already more than enough, and me, Sabine-chan, and Colette-chan are all equipped with handguns. Itās bad for the Bozes to not bring escorts, but in the event where we have to escape, youāll need at least enough strength to withstand the surprise attack for a moment. So, I asked the Bozes to bring one escort for each of them. The rest of the soldiers will be waiting in the village.
In the first place, we will be encountering orcs at most. There are no way monsters like dragon or manticore lurking near a human settlement. If thatās the case, this village wouldāve been perished long time ago, and it would be national priority to hunt those monsters.
Although the Count was opposed to reduce the escorts, when I said [Do you want to let the soldiers who have come all the way here to return to home, and made a report to His Majesty the King saying āThere were too many escorts soldiers, which made the mission uselessā?], he finally convinced.
Well, if you imagine a scene where the King read such a report then you canāt say anythingā¦.
In fact, none of the Countās men has seen the offensive power of the firearms during the [Royal Capital Absolute Defense]. The count was on his way to Royal Capital, Alexis was in a hospital on earth, and Iris was in Bozes. When the assassin was defeated, Alexis fell down and did not witness the power of my firearm back then. Of course, he at least had heard the sounds.\nThe purpose of the Counts and co. this time must be because they wanted to witness the power of [The Sacred Treasure]. They mightāve witnessed the Canon power from the battleship of the Vanel Kingdom when they did test shooting, but [The Sacred Treasure] is incomparable to that.
M1 Garand test shooting?
No, not in this country. They havenāt witnessed that either. Thereās no need to demonstrate the power of guns in this country, right?
Thatās why the Countās Family isnāt here for sightseeingā¦ But rather to collect information. Well, it doesnāt matter.
And finally, Letās depart.
A total of 15 people, including a Hunter from Colette Village (Temporary name), the 3 Wolf Fang Members, the Bozes Family, and four escortsā¦. Itās still a little bit too much!
Among them, there are 3 non-combatants which are Iris-sama, Alexis-sama, and Theodore-sama.
Naturally, the Hunter should be able to fight. We, too, have enough Walther to be strong enough. Iām doing bad thing with the Waltherā¦ tte, Shut up, will you?!
(Note: Itās another word play. Walther = Warusaa, Bad things = Warusaa)
āBoth I and my brother can also fight! What do you think us, the noble child, are?!ā (Theodore)
I received a complain from Theodore-samaā¦ tte, Eh?
ā ā¦ did I say it out loud?ā (Mitsuha)
āYou said it clearly!!ā (Theodore)
That was closeā¦.\n\nWolf Fang members readied their guns, even though they donāt understand the words, but they did anyway. Of course, they were neither stupid nor amateurs, so they donāt fire before confirming the target. Unlike Japanese rookie hunters who often shoot their friends, they are professional.
(Note: Wow, thatās rather disturbing. Often shoot their friends lol)
And then, 5 ā 6 monsters have appeared from behind the trees.
Right, the three Wolf Fangs have been told not to attack without my permission, except in emergency situations where they cannot afford to wait my confirmation. It would be bad if we accidentally shot an elf or dwarf.
ā¦ I donāt know if such thing exists somewhere in this world though.
Ta~an, ta~an, ta~anā¦ā¦
The firing sound in semi-automatic continued.
āThereās no problem using the 5.56mm with the goblin, theyāre like humanā¦ no, theyāre smaller and thinner than human, so theyāre even weaker. They donāt wear armor either.ā (Captain-san)
Captain-san looks calm because he already saw dead bodies of goblins, orcs and ogres from the last time. But the other two who having first experience in a different worldā¦.
āThat was nothing!ā (WF Member 1)
āThe stronger one! Arenāt there anything bigger?!ā (WF Member 2)
ā¦ they werenāt satisfied at all.
Damn, this time we will hunt even rabbits (with horns)!!
(Footnote : Earl is equivalent with Count. iām using count instead of earl to match ācountessā)
