Arifureta After IIIShia ArcRaised! The Flag is Raised!

Hajiers were reluctant to see the at the upstrea their cheeks with bread that looked like nan with a lot of ers when the left They were eating while they were advancing along the river that still had the coldness of the

「Delish- desuu I missed the chance to ask, but what kind ofwild taste, it somehow re 'delicious delicious' in a display of gluttony regardless of the fact that it hadn't been a few hours since they received breakfast

「In any case, they were a pleasant bunches aren't they That……Wanda atkick Though it's still not at the level of a certain ht a young girl to a draw after that got high spirited when Hajihting style He begged that he also wanted to have a ht compared to Shia left an impression of boorishness that couldn't be erased It didn't have the flowing elegance of "martial arts" that was backed with history like Shia as adopting various hand-to-hand fighting style

Although, Haji real battle after real battle where his life was on the line of life and death should be said as the height of rationality

His figure perfectly handling the entirety of Shia's flowing offense that was like a surging wave using the minimum movement necessary made anyone atched it felt beauty from it in its oay

Not just Bantas, it also ithout saying that the ot their blood boiled

「Haji the male, just like with Tou-sa the beefy people……」

「Stop it, don't say any hi his head Shia raised a chuckle seeing such Hajiain next year, they expressly gave us the invitation, so let's co a souvenir next tiuess」

Shia expressed her happiness of the unexpected chancein the travel with a wide s around

However Hajiht 「Eh? He isn't enthusiastic?」 while she peeked at Hajime's expression with a bit of unease

Haji Shia and he spoke while patting her head pon pon

「Don't ……is it?」

「Yeah I' it that much, then perhaps it's fine to make the travel date with just Shia a custom for once a year at least」

「Hajiht Pi─n-! The lovely suggestion caused Shia's eyes to sparkle with stars of delight, then she leaped at Haji with joy

And then without pause she pouted her lips 「Nn~~」 and approached for a kiss

「I get it that you're happy, so for no about you clean up the food scraps around your ht red and her body backed away gracefully

It was a rare occurrence, but so rabbit Hajime watched fondly of such Shia with affection then he personally cleaned up Shia's mouth Shia look embarrassed, but she kept her eyes closed

Toward such Shia, Hajiht his face closer to have the continuation of just now even though it was early in theShia who felt his presence also leaned her body forward in response……

「A?」

「Haze toward deep inside the forest rustle rustle The sound of feet treading firetation resounded faintly

「It's not sosters of other village loitering around but……」

Now then, what could be the reason of they being here The answer immediately becanerthings on theeous」

「Whatever, as expected foreign tourists are idiot huh Taking sight defenselessly in this kind of place like this」

Just from that conversation it was clear that these are the insolent people the villagers warned the that n couple with affluent look seeing froe too

Tourists visiting dangerous place with sightseeinginformation about the local, without even the self-awareness of how ignorant and rash and reckless they were acting, and holding a groundless optimistic view that it was impossible for misfortune to befall the to aiet robbed

With a grin on their face, the robber look-alikes were gathering while showing soh they looked old

「This kind of people exist no ht her with the fist of Uga that I had just learned I will teach them the harshness of socie──」

The ive a lesson,

──DOPAN-DOPAN-DOPAN-DOPAN-

Consecutive gunshot sound echoed inside the forest At the sa up froh in a video playback More accurately they were sent flying, or perhaps it should be called as knocked flying

「Wha-, wha-, this guy──」

「He is carrying gun! Run──」

「Sto, stop! We aren't planning anything! Look, I'un! So don't sho──」

Everyone peacefully returned back deep into the forest There was no exception

「Be thankful tearfully that you guys at least don't get returned into earth」

Mercilessly, no, just using stun bullet was alreadywhether they were escaping or raising their hands in surrender

It didn't even take five seconds until the figure of about ten people of the bunches vanished from view

「Ha, Hajime-san?」

At earth, Hajime fundamentally didn't pull out Donner, if it was only so his bare hand (he used his left hand without reservation), but here he chose gun without an instant of hesitation Shia's eyes turned round seeing Hajied his shoulders and he stored back Donner into the holster on his chest while,

「There is no one watching after all」

In other words, it seemed if it was a place where there was no witness, he wouldn't hesitate to use Donner in order to settle the problem in a flash For the insolent people who encountered Hajierous place instead

Haji like 「I'll comply to law and ethic that is appropriate for a citizen of a constitutional country After all here is different fro unhesitatingly……

「Haji that it's okay to shoot if there is no witness, feels like it's norh」

「Oi oi, how can you say that to a virtuous and exemplary Japanese person like me」

A virtuous and exemplary Japanese person was surely a person ouldact of violence and honored the law to the best of their ability, that was how she felt……Shia's expression turned really complicated

「Before this Myuu-chan said "innocent until proven guilty Everything is legal if it's not leaked out", she said outrageous things by quoting someone's words but……I feel like I understand whose words they were」

「There is nothing in aze to escape Shia's fixed stare

※Those ords that a good kid must not believe no matter what!

Shiathe other way However, her expression turned into a bright sht after that,

「Well, they are scoundrels, so it doesn't matter whatever happen to the in love with you all over again」

ruffle-ruffle! pat pat! The scene of idiot couple flirting beside the forest where multiple locals collapsed was truly surreal

By the way, in case it was Shia who dealt with them, they would definitely ended up in a state of an inch before getting beaten to death, so in a sense Hajiunshot that ca obstructed……in a sense they ca

After the time advanced boisterously and flirtatiously for a while

The sun had risen high to the sky, about the time when it almost become afternoon, the river's width suddenly became wide and a town could be seen up ahead It was the town of Puhang

The automobile and maintained road that were the convenience of civilization could be seen

Originally, it was a place that could be reached in four hours if one used car or bus from a town that had train station or airport There was no whimsical traveler like Hajime and Shia ould intentionally walked inside a thick forest along the river for a few days laboriously to reach this city

「How should I say it, it's that It feels like when you encounter someone who used cable car to reach the su up with troubles」

「Thethe cli beside hi truck noisily, which caused Shia to pout

「Don't sulk I also had fun Rather than that, it's afternoon already I'ood workout, what about you Shia?」

「You're right~ I'ers, there are a lot of delicious restaurant so let's eat lightly」

「Yeah If I reht the reco the river was it?」

「Desu desu They toldwhile entering the city There they saw that unexpectedly there were a lot of foreigners It shouldn't be a particular tourist spot, but far ahead from here there was another tourist spot, so perhaps this place was bustling as a stopping point

Shia asked the local for direction with her innate a bug-eyed hearing Shia talking the local language fluently could be seen as expected The person she talked to also becaht her the direction kindly and thoroughly

「Over there he said! Hajiot it, that's why don't hop around You are being stared with lukewaraze by everyone around you know? Evenor old,across the street toward her lover with gentle eyes Incidentally, pleasant gazes were also directed toward Haji so with quite the speed Even though it was in the middle of city, with that speed the car undoubtedly would be unable to stop even if so suddenly leaped in front of it

Shia as in thethe street leaped toward Hajierous isn't it~ Why is that car that hurried I wonder?」

「Who knows Rather than that, they are riding good car there What's roup?」

Just as Hajierously wasn't just one

Six SUV that in a glance looked high class with high perforh in a line It felt like the cars were prepared altogether, so at the very least there was no doubt that they were froanization with quite the financial muscle

Hajime's interest was a bit tickled at the people who cah class SUV, but it also wasn't soree that would ate He i while holding Shia's hand so she wouldn't hop around

They walked through a place that looked like a pro toward the restaurant

The river's appearance wasn't beautiful, so no foreign tourist atching the view, but several local people were fishing on a protruding wharf, they were chatting while putting their feet into the river Sos It could be seen froht how the river was closely connected to the daily life

Further ed after all, ship h to show it, ships with a lot of utility wereout wharves that were also a lot When there ooden rowing boats, there were also boats with engine Though they were all unifor time

Suddenly Hajime asked

「Come to think of it, Shia About the ruin spot ere told at the village, based from what I saw in theto walk? It will take around a week if we detour until the place with bridge you know?」

「Aa~ uu~ Actually it will be nicer to walk but……as expected, that will take too much time I have enjoyed the travel by foot a lot, and here boat also see at Haji a bit e back her oords

Haji his Treasure Warehouse II shined He summoned the hard workers Arachne-san ere in the process of being turned into Jack of all trades He took them out from inside his clothes so that it wouldn't coround through Haji sound

「……Hajio but, why spiders? Honestly speaking, they are a bit chilling」

Countless spiders were crawling out froht that would make anyone faint

Hajime as asked positioned Arachne to four directions and activated awareness obstruction barrier while answering with a puzzled look

「Eh? It's cool right?」

「……」

Shia softly averted her eyes It seemed that Hajime's fundamental chuunibyou was ied on Haji that if it was Shia she would approve saying 「You're right!」, but she was just getting nor pon pon on Hajiht, it's all right I' just as all right

「No no, Shia Try iht? It's roht? At the Ar the ed weren't you? Besides, it's that See, even that person in a certain ○ on surface as nest』 about himself, also there is that! Even a certain hero of America is totally spider you know! After that──」 (TN: About the , it's reference to Nanaya Shiki frouy's victory line there)

「I understand I understand already It's fine you know, Hajientle eyes like that! Eeei-, don't pat aze was full of coe to Hajime's heart

Hajime forcefully tore Shia away fro out a boat,it at the nearby spot It was a black coated boat with proper construction

──Prototype amphibious boatTriana

It was the prototype boat of the artifact that he sent to a certain friend, other than being able to h speed on water, it could also run on land by putting out its stored wheels

「Let's go using this until near the ruin」

「Does it need to be taken out right now?」

Shia tilted her head in puzzle to have lunch after this, why did Hajiht now?

「No, actually, this is still in the prototype stage……rather it's inco, I'll use the Arachne for reree」

「Arachne-san is working hard isn't it But, it's floating norht now, it can run on water already isn't it? I think it's enough like that though……」

Shia was puzzled, she wondered that even though Haji it a e where it wasn't even equipped with propulsive「Of course it will run normally if I make it run but……」 then,

「It's not installed with any weapon at all」

「Yes?」

'I don't really get what you are saying desu', Shia made an astonished expression that said that

「Err, Haji though……」

Shia said such thing with bewilderment Hajime turned a shocked expression toward such Shia His state truly looked as though saying 'I don't really get what you are saying desu'

「Are you in your rightlike a vehicle without weapon is the saerous!」

「Rather I think it's Hajime-san's heart that is in need of a brake」

If it had to be said further, rather than a car without weapon, it was the car eapon that was dangerous no ht about it

But Haji', and then he opened hisan unreasonable kid

「Listen well Shia, think really carefully What will happen to Bon○-san if there is no weapon in his Bo○d car? Even if it's soht simply die you know?」

「Please don't confuse the vehicle used for travelling together with spy car Hajiland? It feels like Magdanese-san will be really happy then……ah, no, I'll take back e that will be beyond healing to Magdanese-san's sto like a vehicle without weapon wasn't a vehicle, that was the fixation that Hajime wouldn't concede And that seemed to be connected hy he put out the boat now

All the Arachne-san quickly clung to here and there on the boat and began their iry so let's quickly go to the restaurant」

「……How strange I get the feeling that Shia is looking at uy……」

Shia pulled the hand of Haji the whole thing was, and this ti Haji back home from the other world, whether it was Hajime or Yue, both of theh she was dealing with hopeless person, depending on the situation there was also tiry……

Coet the feeling that their position was oddly reversed

The cooking of the restaurant they visited was rather delicious just like the villagers reco theout to the river was also not bad with hoas giving effective ory
