Chapter 126 Overbearing Conversation

Better reread starting the beginning of demi human continent arc to refresh your mind. I didn't do it myself since I was too lazy though.

Chapter 126 Overbearing Conversation

Abruptly, the match was announced to be over. The futsal field that was as lively as a night club now shrouded in tension.

 “Love and Money”, anyone who knew the meaning of that name, had all of their faces stiffened.

 “They brought five warships and didn’t heed any of our attempts to keep them in check, they threatened us that should we attack they... will attack with magic cannons!

Hearing the heavily wounded merman’s words, the demi humans immediately went into uproar and seemingly about to wrap up in panic.

 “O oi, Love and Money is that one right?! They destroyed that high elf country, captured and sell the tribe members of rare cryptid people, turning them into slaves!

 “Se, seriously! Why guys like them bring their battleships here!”

“No, NOOOOOO! I should quickly escape!”

 “More like, hurry up close the gates! What the hell the security guys are doing!”

It seems like this is not the time to play futsal.

 “It appears it is only up to here, Velt-kun Farga Elfarshia” (Sorushi)

 “We have something else we need to do. It is regrettable” (Toushi)

Seemingly reluctant to part, Sorushi and Toshi left the field.

The girls trio too hurriedly chased after their backs. 

“Ufufufufu, though their president is absent they still hard at work, these stupid brats.” (Yubamensch)

And more importantly, this man(?) won’t just stand quietly.

[[[[“----------------ts!”]]] (Yubamensch)

Suddenly, as if something gigantic has been put on our backs, in just an instant an intense pressure ran through everyone on the futsal court.

 “Ah...” (Velt)

My hands are sweating. When I come to myself, my waist felt like about to come off.

Despite he was just a wriggling okama moments ago, what is this feeling of oppression that wrapped everyone in this place?

 “Everyone----Be silent!” (Yubamensch)

With only one word and him lightly rising his right hand, all the clamoring demi human youths fell silent.

All people snapped and straighten themselves.

Even I felt like completely unable to utter a single word. This is the sensation that I haven’t felt for a while. The opponent is far too big. And only this one I understood.

Maman... Yubamensch is Angry!

 “Yubamensch-sama. We’ve gained an understanding of the situation” (Sorushi)

 “All off duty Shinsengumi members are to assemble. We will call all neighboring alliance tribes and guard squad, close all the gates and confront those people.” (Toushi)

When no one was able to utter a word, the sole voices that can be heard was from Sorushi and Toushi.

Without anyone noticing, they are now wearing their haori and hakama uniform, while having katana slung at their waist.

 “Ri, right. Today, in this town we have Sorushi-sama and Toushi-sama!”

 “Moreover, we have Yubamensch-sama!”

 “That’s right, humans are just a bunch of pushovers”

That’s right, this town has these people. Their over reliable presence shed light on this fear stricken town.

 “O,oi, Maman! What are you going to do!” (Althea)

Moved by her parent’s wrath that’s about to erupt, as if having a bad premonition, Biyama grasped Maman’s hand.

However, as if saying not to worry, Maman shook his head.

 “It’s alright. we just gonna have  a bit of talk, things will be settled quickly. ” (Yubamensch)

 “But even so!” (Althea)

 “It’s alright~~!” (Maman)

‘It’s alright. The confidence packed in those words is truly the best expression of reliability. Honestly, we thought that Love and Money is absolute idiot for attacking a place with these guys around.

 “To think that damn Love and Money would come at this timing”

 “Those assholes, I understand that they wanna go wild now that the Great Human Allied Forces is weakening, but why the hell they go out of their way just to come here? Is there some really nice target to abduct here?” (Farga)

Despite I thought of those guys as idiots, I still unable to figure out their purpose.

 “Velt-sama, what is happening right now?” (Eljela)

 “Bamou! Bamou!” (Cosmos)

TL note: Eljela, an angel from Sky World, Cosmos is her daughter. The father is Velt.

However it is, I already decided what I have to do.

 “Cleran, hurry and wake Ura up. This time we’re not up  against demon race, though it’s only a human crime syndicate that dares to attack this town, things will be bad if  she just stay asleep” (Velt)

All we have to do is only one. To survive.

“Eljela, you must never let Cosmos go okay? Dora, you stick close to these two”(Velt)

“Yea! Leave it to me! I will protect Cosmos-chan!” (Dorauemon) (Tl note : usually Dora)

More than messing things up, the worst possible outcome would be if a battle broke out. When it comes to that, there’s no guarantee the demi human guards would protect us.

There’s a big possibility that we would also fight.

 “Like man, impossible. Really...” (Althea)

Duh no, it is possible... huh, Biyama?

When I realized, Biyama that was fidgeting in fear casted her eyes down and muttered something.

Maman has gone and bringing along the city guards with him, she is now gazing at his back.

 “Hey, what’s up, you’re not going to go?” (Velt)

 “Asakura... i, it’s dangerous so don’t go. Last time the negotiation with Kagami blew up, I was thinking that they’re totes bad guys” (Althea)

I see. She is worried. A child thinking of  her mo... fath... alright, parent isn’t she?

 “But this time is not like the usual, those are warships you know? Isn’t this better, considering the fashion and photo booth business you created could be destroyed?” (Velt)

 “Ha? I don’t care ‘bout that. Aren’t they stupid since they totes not even think ‘bout making it themselves?” (Althea)

 “Well, I think they do think a bit about that” (Velt)

 “What the hell.  Who cares ‘bout that” (Althea)

Well, to her, it’s not about the other’s reason, it’s more something like she found the people that bother her current life to be irritating.

She has been grumbling complains since a while ago. However, there must be some worries mixed in her grumbling at the same time.

Laying bare her anger, she turned her head to her parent that is about to go facing the enemies.

 “You don’t need to worry. One of the Four Heavenly Beasts Demi Human and Shinsengumi are here. Rather, those guys are the ones who’s need to worry” (Velt)

 “But...” (Althea)

 “Well, somehow I don’t really get your feeling but also get it eh...” (Velt)

Geez, no choice. Shall we pitch in some help?

 “For now, whether we fight or not, we should see how the enemies move first right?” (Velt)

 “Hmm? Ah, Maman did say that” (Althea)

 “Then, shall we go and take a peek?” (Velt)

 “Haa? Wai-, is this gonna be  alright?” (Althea)

 “Aa? I didn’t say anything about not going, human like me doesn’t have any reason to listen to Maman, isn’t it?” (Velt)

 “Uwa... Asakura... You’re having a totes very sinister face right now!” (Althea)

That’s right. And you also having the same face right now Biyama.

 “If it’s just four of us, we won’t be conspicuous” (Farga)

 “Lord, if you’re going to go, I too shall accompany you” (Musashi)

And like that, Farga and Musashi that’s been suspecting our sinister faces spoke out their opinions.

 “Is this alright, Farga?” (Velt)

 “Yea, I’m a bit interested in it. Those shithead bastards, to even use this kind of forceful hand, why the hell they come so far all the way here? ” (Farga)

It seems Farga  would also tag along with us. This is not war. Even if they’re crime organization, they’re in the end a human organization, what brings them to all the way to demi human continent?

 “Hey Musashi, around this place... what do you think, when it comes to this, they must be after that. Is there any rare species that worth to be captured and sold around here?” (Velt)

If that money grubbing organization was going to do something there’s nothing else but that. However, as expected, Musashi shook her head.

 “Can’t be helped, let’s go and check those guys’ intentions” (Velt)

“Yeah” (Farga)

 “Hey, Asakura. Is it alright leaving your wife and child behind?” (Althea)

 “Scaaary, though I have a daughter, my wife herself is the strongest. It should be alright” (Velt)

We all nodded to each other, weaved our way through the gaps of the fear stricken demi humans in  center of the field then broke into a run.

We had run passed through the crowds, yet sensing the terrible mess of escaping demi humans and guards, we ran along the roof. Anyhow we were heading to the entrance of the town.

Since all the key people should be present over there.

 “Hey, Asakura” (Althea)

 “Huh?” (Velt)

 “Maman... he should be okay, right?” (Althea)

 “Okay my ass, I’ve only been traveling for a bit yet, I know very well how terrifying the Four Heavenly Beast Demi Human is.” (Velt)

 “Ah, as I thought, Maman is totes awesome!” (Althea)

 “Yea, more like, if there’s a human that can win against him they must be at least the Ten Heroes of Light. Like, if they actually exist, they could become one of the world heroes.” (Velt)

That’s right, that’s so long as they didn’t have any special condition that didn’t allow them to join the Ten Heroes of Light like Farga.

 “I see, so it’s alright?” (Althea)

Yeah, so don’t worry. However, what actually made me curious is their goal after all.

 “We should shut up now. I can see them, stupid little brother” (Farga)

We raise our face and saw encirclement in front of the city gate. On one side there was a great variety of armed demi humans. And from beyond the city gate facing inside there were humans, all wearing one colored black suits.

 “Gyahahaha, are they Yakuza! Hey, Asakura, they even totally decided on the suits!” (Althea)                 

 “Geez, is that Kagami’s hobby? He is even trying to spread the suits to this world.” (Velt)

However, the fight doesn’t seem about to start yet, right? Hmm? More like, it doesn’t feel any fight about to break off that much. What’s this about?

 

 “Ufufufufufufu. You brought that many people and warships along, you intrude here but instead of wanting to raid or fight us, you want to talk?  What’s going on, I wonder?” (Yubamensch)

Standing at the head of the demi human group, Maman imposingly laughed. On the other side, standing at the center of the group, a scary faced man that seemed like the leader in return straightened his posture.

 “We brought the battleships for the countermeasures against sea monsters and others while on the trip. As for our trespassing till here, we have something urgent that we need to do. It is too much that your side came to attack us just because of some sparks!”

Against the completely unfazed man that just spoke, Maman’s vein bulged up.

 “Listen here~, humans brought out their battleships, forcefully crossed demi humans’ territorial sea, and even more than that you said if you were to be restrained you will attack, isn’t that obvious? Are you a fool?” (Yubamensch)

 “We understand! However, even when we said to call out Yubamensch, they just won’t listen. Since we don’t have time we used force!”

 “Oh my~, this is no good eh~, you must be unpopular with girls right? You’re so selfish~” (Maman)

What kind of development is this? Setting aside whether Maman was angry or not, Love and Money’s objective is to have a discussion?

Moreover, based on the flow, Maman seemed to have something to say himself.

“W-what does this mean?” (Velt)

 “They did not  come to pillage or invade? Their purpose is to have a talk with Yubamensch? Those assholes, what the hell are they truly thinking?” (Farga)

“This is indeed an unexpected development -- degozaru” (Musashi)

“Ya know, I don’t totes get what’s the meaning of this” (Althea)

Yea, me too, didn’t understand what is the meaning of this. More like, what kind of discussion did they came here for?

And then, it was at that time

“I was the one who commissioned them” (???)

The human group was parted in two and from the inner part someone walked forward.

“Tsk, it's you!” (Yubamensch)

Maman was surprised upon seeing that person.

“.......eh?” (Velt)

“Wha— wha-t?” (Farga)

Me and Farga were doubting our eyes. That voice, that figure, that face. We remembered seeing that person.

 “My my, it’s been a long time eh, humans are so unpredictable. Firstly, why don’t we say long time no see to each other after so long?” (Yubamensch)

“Fuuh, it has been fifteen years. We both grown older is what I’d like to say, but you don’t change at all” (???)

It’s a lie...

 “Why, someone like you be with Love and Money?” (Yubamensch)

“Whatever the values of demon race and demi human are, the humans itself has benefited greatly from the company. Because of that, the hands  of the company has even reached the center of many nations. It is not strange at all” (???)

“......You... so you’re also involved in this?” (Yubamensch)

 “It’s not like I hide them or anything. I just don’t let it known by much. Normally I don’t get involved that much after all. As far as it goes, my position is like a board member outside of the company” (???)

How, could you...

“So, what is it you’re coming here for? For once, we were war buddies that tried to kill each other, how about we drink some cola together?”

 “Yubamensch, I came here to talk with you. Because I am in rush against time, we had to forcefully made our way through. I’ve ordered to avoid killing however, if there’s still casualties among the guards I apologize” (???)

Don’t know, me and Farga, we don’t damnest  have any idea who the guy that talked with those cold eyes and rigid tone over there. He was different! He wasn’t the guy we knew!

He is another person!

But, who? If that is indeed the case, who is the guy over there?

“Ara, then. What kind of conversation is it? Eh? What is the general of Elfarshia Kingdom, the Holy Knight General (Paladin General) Tyler-sama, has to talk with me?” (Yubamensch)

Why Tyler is here!

(Tl note : Previouly called Taira, but i found out Tyler to be the better one seeing how evey characters have western names. Tyler is the guy who got along with Velt while still in Elfarshia capital. He meets Velt every now and then in the earlier part.)

 “The war balance that has been going on for hundreds of years between the three races has finally been destroyed. Along with that.... maybe they will come? The collapse of the surface world, by sacrificing millions of piled up corpses, it will come.... the war against The Divine Race.” (???)

That’s why I said, What the hell is up with you.....?

TL: I'm kinda confused whether to use past tense or present tense here. The author use present tense mostly anyways but stories usually use past tense.
