Before the Decisive Battle

Shizuku aiting to welcoh

"Finally you all ca Follow me"

Shizuku only said that before turning on her hell and walked ahead toward the boorish fortress right in front of thelance it was obvious that it was a fortress of red brick that was constructed in hurry, however the scale of the fortress boasted a degree of completion that was unthinkable that the construction was done in just one or two days Surely this was the result of overusing artifacts of age of god rank that raised up the ability of cheat earth eledoreat plain in front of the kingdom capital where several hundred thousand battle force were ca artifacts, the area was bright like in the afternoon The [Capital of Hairihi Kingdom] and [God Mountain] that were visible at far away looked different froht fro it feel a ure of Shizuku as leading theht looked extre happened?"

Shizuku came to a standstill when Hajiorously turned back and with a brisk walk she approached hihtly Without any pause she buried Haji ared him forward

Shia and others blinked their eyes at the unusual boldness of Shizuku's act

"Oi oi, Yaegashi Really what's the matter?"

"It's Shizuku Feels like it's too late already now, but please call me Shizuku I too will call you Hajihed tiredly toward the perplexed Haji her true intention

"Hisyou know He tried to put up some kind of made-up reason to put me at his side, he came to ical and on top of that he did what he needed to do perfectly so I couldn't complain at all"

It appeared that Shizuku was fed up because Gahard was ive out ht?"

"I told hiu, Ha, Haji at you even then you could just contact ht?"

There Shizuku's expression turned from displeasure into a troubled look

"…I didn't want to be a trouble just from this much After all, Ha, Hajime is the key of victory of the allied forces Besides, in order to win against that Ehito, you need to work out various countermeasures correct?"

"It's fine even if you aren't that considerate you know It would be over just by opening a gate and fill hiht that you would do that I held back frooing to attack a leader of a country, isn't it? That's why for cohness the emperor is also in the conference rooh"

"I see"

"Because of that, Shia and others too, allow this a little okay?"

To Shizuku who said that with a little apologetic look, Shia and others also returned a s her to not worry about it

By the way, Reers ere acco the two Myuu and Remia also wished to accompany them to the fortress because they could do the chore there, but Hajierous time that threatened the world where a serious affair was concerning Yue-oneechan, to not be able to do anything depressed Myuu's heart in not a slight amount, that hy Hajioleht and hearing of the golem from the safe zone that was Orcus's hideout, on top of that the controller could send their instruction precisely With that Myuu could accept being left because she also had sohter

Along the way, the soldiers hispering "That's…" while sending the shy fro spoiled to Haijme, Shizuku was able to endure and also reduced the stress that she got froree, they arrived at a spacious hall inside the fortress

A large table was put inside, at the seats of honor were Liliana and Randell, Gahart, and then Alfrerick, Kar around the s at that it was obvious that the 'Goddess of Harvest' was forced to take the front stage

When Hajiaze looked further around, there were a lot of faces that he knew Ranzi and Viz of [Ankaji Dukedouild masters Barus, Iruwa, Catherine, and for some reason the clothes store's monst――Christabel The commanders that he saw in each respective countries and the aides of every representative, in addition, there were also Nagayama and Sonobe as the representatives of the class at Liliana's side, but Liliana's presence was stronger, it see as the representative of Hairihi Kingdom

The moment Hajime arrived, all of them made expressions that said "So he finally arrived!", next their cheeks cra all over hi at the time it wasn't like Haji for hi upon him, what nerve…that was how the io of the , but the leaders with authority even a all the leaders here, the representatives of each force were all standing up noisily fro Shizuku waiting up on you like that, is that insinuation towith Shizuku!?"

"Ya, Yaegashi-san? Se, sensei is, thinking that kind of behavior is not healthy you know? Even though sensei thought that you are a person with a little bitwith…that's enviou…not that, that's really shameless!"

"You bastaard, in front of Kaori, you laid your hand even to her best friend-! Kaori! Just as I thought I won't give up on you! I will separate you from that demon without faiiil!"

"As expected-, Boss! Even nohen your beloved woman is kidnapped, you still have the co to do a debauched party for the cheering up before the decisive batt-heboo!?"

In order fro were Gahard, Liliana, Aiko, Randell, and Kar at a seat of honor was surely the proof that the na rabbit had perure that was shot by Hajinity was nonexistence Shia at the side was covering her face with both her hands while tre her shame

"Shizuku is like this is Gahard's fault, all of it Say your co to be aa pass at Shizuku"

"Myto increase y with your present for mee! I love you!"

Chrystable with her frilly costuirl which looked painful in variousHaji his iaze that said "I' at that, Gahard shrunk back in terror that wasn't like the broadminded majestic emperor For him, it seemed that Chrystabel's queerness was severe

Those attitudes of the top group which was unthinkable for one to act before the decisive battle where the fate of ambled made the expression of other people inside the conference roo or joyful that they had coly) to act like that, or else should they felt uneasy that they were lacking in tension

Haji him, Shia and others also took their seat It was because they understood the iroup that seats were also prepared for everyone other than Hajian the lastThe placement and distribution of the equip rate of the soldiers, the action guidelines at the tirand invasion, the confirmation of the chain of co to end where they ought to be on the sa artifacts, the top brasses were already talking to each other In the first place, the hu with each other for many years and tied an alliance in the preparation for the battle against the devil race, so there was no big problem

Battle forces of adventurers and uild masters, so it seemed that they could properly coordinate with the army That too seemed to be because it was the duty of the adventurers at war

The problem was the demi-human races which were added to that system, they had their own characteristic chain of co them into the human side was a bad move And so it seemed the demi-human would bethe human race

Currently the classht the way to use and the effect of Hajime's artifacts, but because the artifacts didn't need particular , and also the characteristic convenience of modern weapon where everyone could use it, there didn't seem to be any particular problem in that aspect Even now if they focused their ear, the sound of explosions and dry sound of shooting could be heard resounding at far away intermittently

The fortress had been co done currently was for constructing the battlefield with things like digging trench and the likes A fortress was useful for a place to put gun e various line of fire and obstructed the field of vision of the enemy, but the fortress didn't have the ability to oppose the disintegration ability of the apostle, so till the end it was only a si Their best bet was to eous battlefield for the shape This too is the blessing of the 'Goddess of Harvest' I guess"

Hajiaze at Aiko and others with a bit of ad before this that half of the situation that he was hearing currently wouldn't be in order even now But the preparation had progressed to a level that surpassed Hajime's expectation, that

This was the result of a clear sense of danger and righteous indignation, and also feeling of solidarity that was born inside the people's consciousness Each people wasn'tbecause 'they were told to do so', but because they were thinking that 'I also got to do this' that the preparation could be done this quickly

"…Isn't that right? In a sense, I felt like I was y is Aiko-san is scary"

"Wha- Liliana-san too, you were also inciting the people in high spirits weren't you! Your eyes were teary, you clasped your hands as though you were praying, and then with a lot of heroic you said soht Even if I am alone!] I saw it clearly that time! When the people ere there had their spirit raised, saying that they will fight together, you secretly laughed weren't you! That tih or anything Please don't say so like, perhaps I will receive praise from Hajime-san with this, not at all It's the truth you know?"

"Both the princess and the goddess, whichever of them are plainly creepy As for me, this can affect the throne of the eot creeped out the oddess as having a low-level quarrel, was his h he had seen so further it seeuild masters, and the lord of the desert also had the sa rabbit as sending a thuh

By the ti about thewas approaching, Ranzi of Ankaji Dukedom opened his mouth calmly

"Nevertheless, for the hero of my dukedom, he finally will be the hero of the world…as expected, it seemed that my decision at that time wasn't mistaken"

The receptionist lady of Brook Town's adventurer guild Catherine nodded deeply as though to agree with that,

"Since the first ti for sure But, never I i that controlled the fate of the world…as expected even ht isn't it That tiht that he would surely do soht that he could possibly be caught up in a strife that is related to the secret of the world but…for that to be a battle where the existence of the world will be at stake Haa, er of Iruwa's Branch Head' is already shamefully unusable with this"

"My? As forIf it's Haji Besides, he was always sendingday, I proooperly understood that A good ood sense you know!"

Chrystabel winked intensely Hajierous battle force though Haji from Ranzi and others, he saw their eyes that were colored with complicated apprehension that could be taken as syuessed Chrystabel'scheerful like that

Therefore, Haji and returned a fearless sic

"It's not like this is really strange or anything you know? An idiot self-styled god that cannot read theto die That's all there is to it You guys too, it's only a fight of this level, so survive with sooing to play at the towns of you guys one more time This ti yeah"

Naturally it wouldn't be an easy fight just like Hajime said It would be a deadly combat piled up on deadlier combat, a historical and unprecedented decisive battle of the whole mankind Without any doubt this was a holy war that would decorate a page of legend But, exactly because of that, the boasting attitude of Hajied Ranzi and others, they were all "Aa, it can't be helped if we are told that Let's win" And all the people inside the conference room were also the same like that

And, at that time, the outside suddenly beca "Uwah, is the invasion starting-" with their faces blurred by tension

There, a soldier rushed in with flustered look and reported with a loud voice that had hope and awe on appeared froon race that comes for reinforcement!"

It appeared that the last reliable ally had come back

Hajime lifted the corner of his lips and quietly stood up, he exited the conference roo Shia and others with hi at each other for ashaken froon race

"Goshujin-sama! Thy beloved servant hath come back! Now, let me receive the love!"

Tio who instantly returned fronored her dragonified co ere taken aback fro them She dived toward Hajiun

DOPAN-!

Like that, the familiar sound reverberated, the special rubber bullet hit the forehead of Tio as panting while perfor Lup-n Dive with a look of expectation (TN: Lupin Dive Search it in google to see the pose)

After rotating beautifully three tiround before Haji would hesitate to chirp A unable to grasp the situation, the shot down Tio itching in intoxication with an expression of ecstasy while her back arched like a bridge, and then she rose up s move

"Th, the punish…haa haa, aahn, because I endured too reat that you onification state of all thing …That was a good deendary race that hath confined the to do this then we reat that we art able to strike the couldn't follow the pace of Haji happened Rather than saying that the people were struck due of Hajime and Tio was the main reason they were struck du that her plan succeeded

"Tio-san, welcome back But, if I have to say just in case, I think that this difficult atmosphere is because they are shown the relationship between Hajih it's abnor this many times before but, Hajime-kun too is mostly in harmony with Tio-san isn't he"

"In a sense, it feels like Hajime has to be Tio-san's master no matter what huh, like that? My own fah it should be a spectacle to be shocked about is scary"

Shia, Kaori, and Shizuku ere unable to be indifferent? weretsukko in puzzle it had been already too late for theons that appeared in the square shined, the next moment six silhouettes of human appeared All of the clothes that looked similar to Tio's Japanese clothes Every one of theuy But, their hair colors were colorful, the color resembled the color of their scale when they transforray, deep green, the colors were all over the place

Froe that enity walked forward until in front of Hajime and others Liliana and others who chased behind Hajime――the leaders of each country were also here Certain footsteps that weren't tiht' that was like a really big tree was approaching, those factors werein a really natural way, that 'this person was king'

Liliana, Gahard, Alfrerick, and others, the leaders of each country were slightly faltering due to this great man, however, the man's eyes narrowed the moment he saw Hajime arded off his pressure like a flexibleThose eyes weren't giving dangerous look, but it was a gaze where deep interest and addom's Liliana S B Hairihi-dono, Helsha Een's elder Alfrerick Haipist-dono This is our first tion race, Adol Claus In the peril of this occasion, we the dragon race will also ask to be allowed to participate Our coe and they can be suate anytiainst apostle Please take care of us"

His voice wasn't loud by any mean, rather it even made the listener felt calm, even so the words could be heard even by the soldiers ere looking fro the end was really surviving until now, and in this tiether with theon for, the morale of the soldiers looked like it increased by quite a lot

Liliana and others returned the greeting unanienerously It seeentle, contrary to his stern appearance He made anybody felt an intellectual tolerance that could envelope everything Perhaps it should be said as expected from a race that Yue once treated as an exaon race

Hajime and other filled their eyes with disappointaze at Tio "Hh she didn't understand why they looked at her like that

In order to talk about the action guidelines when the invasion ca to head to the conference room with Liliana and others It was unrelated to the [Holy Precincts] storroup, so Hajime and others stayed behind He had reunited back with Shizuku and Tio so it was necessary to hand over artifacts to them and talked about their action plan when they entered [Holy Precincts]

But, before that a dragontoward Hajime's direction Actually at the point of time when Hajilint of eyes at Hajiht place and tiood looking e of early twenty Coon race people who cauy

"…You bastard Just what in the world you had done to princess?"

The indigo-haired ht at Haji that, Hajiaze at Liliana's direction, Not just Hajime, everyone would think about Liliana if they heard the word 'princess'

Gazes gathered at Liliana wondering if she had soon race that had been hiding froe all this tie of that at all and she shook her head left and right vigorously

"Where are you looking at! If a dragon race says the word princess then it's obviously about Tio-sama!"

Those words aze at Tio in a state where the sound of gi-gi-gi almost could be heard from their stiff movement To that, Tio's cheeks puffed into crih she was a male in puberty that went shy because his class him with '-chan' added

Hajime murmured

"Princess?"

Shia murmured

"Princess?"

Kaori murmured

"Princess?"

Shizuku murmured
