Ore no Isekai Shimai ga Jichou Shinai!

Episode 3-8 Harder Than Sadness

Mr. Elise's life cannot be saved without the Lyxgarvea creep. But my only hope has been in the hands of others.

What should we do in that situation? I looked back at Max to give me that answer.

"I... really care about Sophia. So if it's to protect Sophia, I'm going to do whatever it takes."

"Does that... mean a declaration of war?

Max takes a little distance from us, and Melissa puts her hand on the hips weapon.

In contrast - I shook my head to the side with clarity. That's how I make Max and the others laugh bitterly at me.

"If I were to carry my sins and make Sophia happy, I might have. I'm sure it won't. So... I'm not hostile to you."

"... what do you mean?

"I told you. I'll protect Sophia."

You don't have to kill them to take away the creeps.

If we kill Luxgarveer, we will not achieve their goal of capturing them alive. Even if it's not, it's an option to use all the power you can have to exert pressure from above.

If we do not choose the means, there are several possibilities for obtaining creeps.

But... but...

That's what we said. We were exposed to irrationality, and we came this far to fight it. If we do the same here, I will regret it.

I may be complacent... but I think Sophia would blame herself if she saw me regret it. And that's harder than the grief of losing a parent, I think.

Because... Sophia killed her own father for me.

Of course, I've been saved because of that. But if I stood around well, Sophia wouldn't have killed her parents.

It was me who made Sophia carry the cross... like no other.

That's why I regret getting Sophia involved. And that guilt, even after recovering from that tragedy, didn't completely disappear.

I don't want Sophia to regret it.

- That's why I'm breaking my promise to Sophia.

Because even if that results in Sophia being saddened and scolded as a liar, I think it's better than making Sophia regret what she's done.

"I will not harm you, I promise."

"... apparently, you mean it"

Max, who was silently eager to see how I was, muttered, and largely took his hands off the sword pattern.

"Of course I mean it. Plus, they're here."

I'll show you the way I came. There are Remy's who arrived a little late.

Daniel... Anyway, Remy believed me and took on the guide. You can't betray her like that.

"Remy and... are those Daniels? Did he take your request?

"No, Daniel just ran into me there earlier"

"Huh. Well, you're not gonna hurt us anyway, are you?

"Absolutely.... but you won't be able to trust us right away, so we're leaving here first. You got in the way."

So he turns his heel back and walks over to Sophia, a little further away.

"... Sophia, I'm sorry"

Because it is true that I gave up Mr. Elise's life for any excuse. I bowed my head deeply and waited for Sophia's verdict.

"... Lion, brother, put your face up"

Listen to Sophia whine, I look terrified. There was Sophia's face with grief.

"Brother Lion... it's terrible"

"... sorry"

I can't find an excuse, and I just say I'm sorry. In contrast, Sophia sifted and shook her head sideways.

"Sophia's not a kid anymore, is she?

What I was told was a different word than I expected. I don't know why they say that at this time...... I don't know what it means and I'm confused.

"Yeah... you know what?

"I'm mad because I don't understand. Yikes!

Sophia barks at me. I was surprised at how it looked, and I breathed unexpectedly.

"... Surely, Sophia wants to save your mother? But, because, you can't hope that Sophia will save you until she sins against your brother. Not to mention, for that reason, Sophia's not supposed to blame your brother!

"Sophia......"

When I got here, I finally understood what Sophia was trying to say, too.

Sophia understands what I've given up creeps with. So Sophia was mad at me for thinking Sophia would resent me.

"... sorry, Sophia"

"Ugh. You just have to understand. And because Sophia couldn't make it."

"It's..."

Probably, but what sounded like a howl was the intimidation I raised during my engagement with the Melissa's. So I don't think I could have made it, no matter how quickly.

So I'm not responsible for Sophia... I don't know if fulfilling it would be comforting, and I couldn't say anything.

Instead, I came up with one proposal.

"Sophia, let's find another Luxgal bear"

"... Huh? What do you mean, they've already hunted the Lyx Galvea witnessed in these woods?

"It's too early to give up."

When I was locked away, it was a lot more of a pinch streak than it is now. But still, we're here because we didn't give up.

Even if you're a rare demon who can only find about one head every few years, it's not like you're not likely to find it in a row. If we don't give up, there must be a possibility.

"Lyon's right, it's still too early to give up. I didn't even look for all these woods. Because if it was, I'd cut all this forest for you."

"So don't let the elves try to destroy nature"

"It's for Sophia, so no problem."

"... I guess so"

One or two of the woods if you want to protect Sophia's happiness... I can't believe it's a good idea to cut it without thinking about it. Separate the woods with man-made sea tactics and it will be easy around the roller operation.

It's going to cost a lot... but it's okay, I'm having trouble running out of money. If you don't spend it here, there's no point in having the money.

"We won't give up, we'll find Luxgar Bear!

"" Ugh!

"Dude, I'm sorry it's so exciting, but my story's not over yet."

I am watered and look back. Soon Max stood behind us.

"... what do you mean?

"As I was saying, we deliver Luxgal Bear to our client in return. But I don't know what my client's going to do with Luxgal Bear. I'll tell my client that you want a creep, even if you don't."

"That's, I appreciate it...... but is it good?

I look at Max with surprise when I hear an unwanted offer. Because I thought there was nothing more negotiable than kicking the reward of a thousand gold coins without hesitation.

"Don't get me wrong. It's just telling the story. I don't know if my client will take care of the deal."

"I know that, but... you guys have no advantage, do you?

"I told you. Our purpose is to repay you. It might be more positive for a benefactor to hang out with you guys, right?

"It's..."

You mean take the deal in thousand gold coins directly to your client?

Finally, I also understood why Max had been throwing terrible questions.

Even if my client refused my offer, he dared provoke me to see if I would harm my client - if I was trustworthy.

"... I'm impotent"

"Did you touch that?

No, I'm not complaining.

Because of that, I was framed for choosing a hard choice. That said, without it, I wouldn't have even gotten a referral from my client. So I have no complaints.

I was just wondering what we'd do if we were really attacking you.

"You might have had some trouble then. I just didn't think it would."

"What makes you think that?

"Somehow, yeah. Even if I look like this, I've got a lot of eyes to see."

"... right"

I wonder why anyone who believes in me has everything in place and says that line. I'm just desperate to protect my body, I'm not a good man.

Well, I don't want to lose the opportunity to negotiate, so I won't argue with you.

"It's just... I repeat, our client is conditioned to live capture. You're unlikely to give me the creeps, are you?

"Oh, I know."

"Then it's good. We're going back to the city and we're going to tell our client a report on our client's accomplishment and your story... what are we going to do now?

"Well... if you'll let me see my client, we'll go back to the city."

"Well, do you want to come home with us?

"Oh, let me do that."

And well, for that reason, getting creeps is on hold. We all decided to go back to the city. It's the same outline, but barely hope feels connected, I guess.

By the way...

"What, hey, I have a building even though it's in the woods!?

"There's even a bath over here!?

Max and Melissa, who had more knowledge of magic than Mr. Daniel, were stunned on their way home...... another story.
