The Loner Who Conquers the Other World-Chapter 304

Chapter 304: The suspicious individuals were apprehended on eyewitness report, serving as a disaster prevention training.

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, let’s 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, it’s fine, I’m 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~, I’m actually surprised that you came back, I’ve 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-sama’s training? Like, House(come back)? Sort of?」

I thought that they might’ve made a jackpot, but they returned penniless, as usual idiots. I’m 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?」」」

「It’s 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? Weren’t 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 getting『Welcome back』…」

「「「We just were surprised since there were so many children……」」」

「Nonono, you didn’t get 『Welcome back』 because before saying『We’re back』you began super overreacting to the children, okay? It’s an orphanage, so of course there would be children, if there weren’t any and it instead had only middle-aged men I would’ve long since burned down the place! In the first place, with your first line being『Little girls!』uttered in unison, you aren’t 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. That’s 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, I’d like you to remove these ropes?」

Then, a portion of girls is pressing them for the reason why the didn’t return right away. Even though that much is obvious without asking?

Yeah, they finally got angry. That’s 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, it’s amazing that she can understand such nonsensical rubbish?

「Eerm, in other words, you annihilated the Confederation’s 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 Confederation’s harbors, which led to naval combat, and you thought you’d run away since you freed beastmen already, but then Kakizaki-kun and others jumped on the enemy ships and begun to rampage, so you couldn’t 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?」

「「「What’s what we said.」」」

Perfect translation! As expected of Translation President-san. Her reasoning is so flawless that she might’ve already Plundered skills『Interpretation』or『Translation』somewhere.

I mean, she managed to get that from「Animal ears「The fluff「We got to touch them「I wanted to touch it so much!「Haruka, I’m hungry」After all, the formation of the ships「No, the bunny ears「What are you talking about, the Tail-sama was「Haruka, you got anything to eat?!」And so we chased the animal ears, and then「Those were some good animals ears!「But being too scared, their fluffiness「Haruka, I want rice!」And so Kakizaki-kun and others went berserk「Yeah, like the real leap of「And if you ask us why we made a cannon「That’s right, we couldn’t hit anything with the projectile even when we threw them by hand?「But when we made the cannon to shoot, Slime-san「Yeah, Jiggle-Jiggle, it said」and 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 afraid「And the villages were burned down……「Haruka, I’m 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 let’s have breakfast. Naturally, the Geeks are getting the farthest seats from the orphans.

「…Sorry, Haruka-kun, we didn’t make it in time. The beastfolk warriors fought so desperately… Trying to save children… Fought and died. Sorry… We didn’t make it in time.」

「Is that so…」

「「「Yeah……」」」

As I thought, I made another mistake. That’s why they went to get back the captured. But they couldn’t make it in time anyway… In the end, I failed to protect everything again. And the Geeks also understand that they didn’t actually rescue them, but came too late instead. Because the possibility was there. Even so, I overlooked it, that’s why they didn’t 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)」 f𝐫e𝘦𝘸e𝗯𝒏𝗼ѵe𝗹．c𝑜m

「「「Aaah… he did it again!」」」「「「Just explode already!」」」

Looks like tehepero doesn’t 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.

(I’m saying just in case, but her actual name is not Dancing Girl-san, it’s Nefertiri-san.)

(((No, we were confident that’s 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, didn’t 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-sama’s terrifying sermon! I’m 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 couldn’t 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 isn’t 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. That’s 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 didn’t even get to talk……」」」」

That’s not surprising. They met in the worst way possible. Even if they saved them, from the beastfolk’s point of view they are the same humans. It could’ve been different if they made in time. But since they didn’t… 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 declaring『We’ll leave this here』left, 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, it’s the Geeks and Idiots, so it’s a question if they would’ve been able to communicate properly even under normal circumstances. The Confederation’s 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 can’t afford to carelessly meddle with the Beastmen Country anymore.

And the Geeks hesitant aura have dissipated. They’ve finally made their resolve. Perhaps it’s 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… That’s why the finally resolved themselves.

「Well… Good work?」

「「「「Yes, we are back?」」」」

「Haruka, another serving「Hey, this bucket is too small「Not enough burgers「A bucket of rice balls!」, what about karaage?」Another one!!」

It’s 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… Let’s leave them alone, I guess?
