Ive decided to start translating and differently. The first is Household Guard, and each of the Six Demon Generals has one. The second is Shineitai, translated as Praetorian Guard, and is the term that people use for those idol otaku fan clubs. I have changed everything in previous chapters to match this chapter.
The Demonic Evil Three attack!
Pervert(Nielsen)s friend, Belnandes suddenly came with an emergency report. For some reason this guy gives the same scent as Pervert(Nielsen). Birds of a feather flock together, huh.
Good work, Bel. And so, when will the dokyun be arriving?
Milady. I believe they will arrive at the Beruga plains within a few hours.
Got it. Timu, wait here, okay? Niel and I will ambush the dokyun.
Please wait, Oneesama. Meagre though my power may be, I will head to the frontlines as well.
No, Timu. Its too dangerous to get close to the dokyun!
I understand that it is dangerous. However, I want to help you if only a little, Oneesama.
Timu, what cute things you say! Youre going to pull my heartstrings!
But it really is dangerous. No matter how good Timu is with magic, shes still just a fourteen year old child. If those dokyun spot a bishoujo like Timu, theyll definitely make a pass at her. Unmistakably.
Well, having said that, Im a bishoujo as well, so theyll probably aim for me too. But Im prepared. Ill turn the tables on them. The plan is set. Its dangerous, so I need to have Timu hide at the shop.
Timu, Im happy for your feelings. I know that youre strong as well. But you know, it might sound harsh, but the dokyun are too much for you.
I understand your worries, Tilea-sama. We deeply understand their danger. However, I believe that makes Camilla-samas help all the more necessary.
When I warned Timu, Pervert(Nielsen) cut in from the side.
Mm~mn, its true that Pervert(Nielsen) has a point as well. Pervert(Nielsen) and I are close combat types. It would help a lot to have a backline support type. Maybe I really should have Timu support us with long-range magic after all.
If Pervert(Nielsen) and I get done in, in the end Timu will have to face off with the dokyun anyway, right?
Okay. Lets go with that. Ive decided!
Whether she fights with the dokyun, or runs away from the dokyun, the difference between whether or not we have backline support is huge. Timu runs fast, and if it comes to it, I can just tell her to escape. And if by some chance they go for Timu first, Ill just bet my life to stop them. After that, Ill just have Timu attack them with her elementary magic, but
I wonder how thatll go.
Ive taken one of Timus magic bullets before. It hurt quite a bit. I think itll work pretty well on the dokyun as well, but
If I remember correctly, Pervert(Nielsen) knows the dokyun, so maybe Ill ask him.
Niel, would Timus magic work on the dokyun?
Camilla-sama can use the strongest magic from ancient times. Were the enemy simply any strong warrior, there would be no problem. However, the enemy this time are the heaven-sent children of destruction, the Demonic Evil Three. My deepest apologies. I am unable to make a judgement.
Oneesama, please do not worry. I have powered up since last time. I will certainly not do something as foolish as holding you back, Oneesama.
Timu ardently appealed to me. Right. If we sisters combine our power, well make short work of them. Timu, Ill be borrowing your strength.
Thanks, Timu. Im reluctant to do so, but Ill be having you help out, okay? But if it gets dangerous, drop everything and run.
I will not do something such as deserting Oneesama and fleeing.
No. Its an order. If you feel any danger, run away immediately. Youre more important to me than anything else, after all.
O-, Oneesama. S-, Such words are too good for me! To think that you thought so much of me I, I I am deeply moved.
Timu became teary-eyed, and trembled with emotion. Geez, Timu. That much is obvious, isnt it. Im your older sister, after all.
Niel, if the time comes, take Timu and escape. When push comes to shove, Ill get the job done somehow.
Milady. However
Niel, arent you Timus loyal servant! Follow my order. Or could it be that you dont trust in me?
I would not think of such a thing.
Then Ill be leaving it to you, okay?
Yes milady. I shall comply with certainty. Please leave Camilla-sama to me. I shall risk my life to protect her. Please wield your power as much as you desire, Tilea-sama.
Mn, leave it to me. Ive got a plan after all.
If it comes down to it, while I buy time, Ill have Pervert(Nielsen) take Timu away. At the time, they can just call the rest of the townspeople. The people in this town are usually gentle, but when it comes down to it, there are plenty of them that are strong in fights. And there are all the people of Timus praetorian guard too, after all. We have quite the force in numbers.
Hu hu, well gang up on them in huge numbers and beat the crap out of them! Damned dokyun, I wont let you call it cowardly!
Well, thats a last resort. As youd expect, lynching them in huge numbers would make us the bad guys. First Ill show them our power, and have a talk with them.
We are technically going to try talking it out first, and if we came in massive numbers, it would just spur them on. Ill have everyone in the praetorian guard on standby near the shop.
Niel, tell the praetorian guard to stand by near the shop.
Understood. Adding half-baked war potential would simply put the troops in danger, and is not a good idea. I approve of your plan on going with just an elite few, Tilea-sama.
Mmn, thats not actually what it is. Youre just here to make up the numbers you know. But well, I have no intention of telling Pervert(Nielsen) the truth and demotivating him.
Well then, I have a little somewhere to visit, so Ill be taking my leave. You two gather at the Beruga Plains.
Understood.
Yes, Milady!
Alright. Next is to put Plan Number 2 into motion.
I headed to the guard station to call Loser(Bizef). He should be on duty today, so he should be in
Arriving at the guard station, I searched for him.
Excuuuse me. Is Bizef-san in?
Hey, Tilea-chan. Whats wrong?
Bizef-san, its what I mentioned the other day. The delinquents have come. Please help us.
Got it. Leave it to me. Mind showing me to where they are?
Hearing my words, Loser(Bizef) cracked his knuckles. Looks like hes pumped to give the delinquents a beating. Im happy that hes enthusiastic, but is he planning on going with just those cloth clothes? Hell be done in.
Wait, wait! Bizef-san, lets go grab the armour from last time!
Ah-, r-, right. But I dont think the armour will be necessary. Isnt it fine to go without?
Bizef-san, you did promise to lend me armour, didnt you?
G-, Got it. I got it. Guess it cant be helped. Well then, follow me.
Loser(Bizef) wasnt eager to lend me the armour. While he was guiding me there, he mumbled in complaint.
It was probably the pride of having to put on armour just for a few delinquents, and more important than anything was that he didnt want me to dirty his rare gear by wearing it.
After all, the things in Loser(Bizef)s armour room were all sparkling clean. This is why I hate collectors. If youre going to be like this, then buy three for preserving, using and lending!
Aah~ but I guess when it comes to rares, it really would be difficult to have three of them.
When we got to Loser(Bizef)s house, I immediately borrowed the bracers and chainmail and equipped them.
Ooh~ I feel kind of like an adventurer now. I gave kicking, and waving my arm a try.
Haha, Evil God Dark Matter has arrived!
Feeling like my old self again, I started running about.
Tilea-chan, Tilea-chan, dont move around so much. Youll scratch them. Aah~ you scraped the bracers against the wall. Stop! Stop!
Loser(Bizef)s expression changed, and he stopped me.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, I get how you feel, but these are supposed to be rares!
If it gets scratched from just this kind of movement, theyre fakes, you know. To begin with, are you trying to tell me not to move at all? No way. Im going to run about as much as I want. Ill go wild.
Bizef-san, if Im paying attention to the armour, I wont be able to move.
Right. Then maybe just take off the armour already? Hey, hey, Ill help you take it off.
Saying that, Loser(Bizef) tried to take off my clothes. His hands approached my chest. Oi, oi, are you intending on touching my breasts?
If you dont cut it out, Ill get angry, you know.
A, haha. I-, I was just kidding, Tilea-chan. Anyway, shall we go!?
Honestly, this damned Loser(Bizef). When it comes to weapons, the look on his face changes. He very nearly ended up sexually harassing me.
Pulling myself back together, I headed to the Beruga Plains with Loser(Bizef).
I wonder if Pervert(Nielsen) and Timu are already there.
Arriving at Beruga Plains, I looked about.
Oh! Pervert(Nielsen) was there.
Pervert(Nielsen) was standing on the plains, looking needlessly cool. Even though hed make a fantastic picture with his dandyism if he would just keep his mouth shut like that
Youve come, Niel. Wheres Timu?
Why if it isnt Tilea-sama. Camilla-sama is already on standby in the thicket behind us.
Just as planned, huh?
Yes. All that remains is to wait for them to come.
Alright, well then, the frontline and backline are both in position. If it devolves into a fight with the dokyun, Ill have Timu fire magic bullets from the back.
If I remember right, this person was the new worker at your shop, right, Tilea-chan? Nice to meet you. Im Bizef, a guard in this town.
Saying that, Loser(Bizef) started a conversation with Pervert(Nielsen).
Aah, speaking of which, this is their first meeting isnt it. Maybe I should introduce them to each other.
Bize
Human, do not speak so familiarly with me. And whats more, what a tone to use with Tilea-sama. There should be limits to your disrespect. Before the battle, shall I offer you as sacrifice to the War God!
W-, What the hell! The one who suddenly got rude was you!
Oi, oi, oi, dont just suddenly start a fight. Loser(Bizef) and Pervert(Nielsen) were just about to explode. What the heck are you doing by suddenly causing a falling out? Even though our war potential was doubtful to begin with
Honestly, why did Pervert(Nielsen) do something likewait, hang on, thats right. Pervert(Nielsen) was a chuunibyou who paid no attention to the time or place, and bit at everyone without care. Hes been behaving recently so I forgot, but Pervert(Nielsen) was a hardcore chuunibyou who suddenly attacked me on our first meeting. Leaving that chuunibyou incident aside for now, Id better stop the fight, huh.
Hang on, you two. Stop fighting.
Tilea-sama, why do you cover for this garbage?
Nah, I mean, its true that this guy is a loser, but you dont need to go as far as calling him garbage.
Garbage, you say! Even if I look like this, Im still Guard Captain of this town. Back when I was an adventurer, I was even knighted you know. Do you want me to throw you in jail for disrespect!
Aaah~ Now Loser(Bizef) is getting heated up.
Bizef-san, Ill be troubled if you throw one of our staff in jail. Ill apologise in his stead, so wont you forgive him?
Tsk. I was a bit immature as well, huh. You. Ill forgive you this once in deference to Tilea-chan. Watch how you speak next time!
Hu hu, it would affect my honour as the Camilla Units Household Guard Captain if I allowed myself to be made this much a fool by some garbage. Tilea-sama, may I have permission to clean up?
Still saying that, bastard!
Loser(Bizef) was indignant and tried to grab Pervert(Nielsen).
Dahhhhhh! Niel, stop that already! Bizef-san, please wait a moment.
I stopped it just as it very nearly turned into a fight, and called for Pervert(Nielsen) a little distance away from Loser(Bizef).
Niel, come here.
Milady.
Im not going to ask why you said that kind of thing. I already know your personality quite well, after all. But you know, itll trouble me if you get in the way of my strategy.
Plan Number 2. The plan to borrow Loser(Bizef)s authority as a guard would be ruined.
O-, Of all things I was obstructing your strategies M-, My deepest apologies. I had not even considered that that garbage could have been related to your battle plans.
Its fine as long as you understand. Be careful next time, okay?
Yes milady! I shall not err a second time. And so, would it be permissible to hear the contents of the strategy so as to not obstruct you again?
Well, its just a little test. I wanted to see whether or not the Guard Captains strength would work on the dokyun.
I see. Measuring the war potential of the humans, is it? As expected of Tilea-sama. To think that you have already begun planning for the war with the humans.
Huu~ Chuuni-esque as usual. Its already getting tiresome to translate. For now, Im fine as long as he doesnt get in the way of the plan. Ill just give him any old response.
Well, basically.
However, I wonder if that garbage will be of any use. From what I can see, he does not appear strong enough to even face the Demonic Evil Three.
Mu!? Pervert(Nielsen) hit where it hurt. Thats true. When it comes to Loser(Bizef), theres plenty enough probability that the dokyun will scare him.
Niel, Ive suspected that as well. I thought of this as trying it out just in case it really did work.
So that is how it was. I shall abide by your will, Tilea-sama.
Tilea-chan, are you done talking?
Timing it so that it was just when I was done talking with Pervert(Nielsen), Loser(Bizef) called out to me.
Oi, garbage! Be as useful to Tilea-sama as garbage can be, before you die!
W-, What was that!
Aah~ Damn Pervert(Nielsen) at it again. Picking a fight already. He didnt understand what I told him at all. Cant be helped. Ill persuade Loser(Bizef) instead.
Bizef-san, Bizef-san, please come here for a moment.
This time I called out to Loser(Bizef).
That man-! I endured because I was in front of you, Tilea-chan, but I cant forgive him anymore!
Bizef-san, Ill say it as many times as you want, so please forgive him.
But you know, Tilea-chan
Please listen, Bizef-san. That man is a very disappointing one. Truly, truly, disappointing As an adult, please deal with him magnanimously.
I told Loser(Bizef) about just what a disappointing and chuuni NEET he was. About how despite having no ability, he would bite at anybody without care like a mad dog.
A-, A man like that actually exists?
He does. And even though hes almost 60, hes never worked a day in his life. You can understand the hardship and pain, right?
It seems that even Loser(Bizef) was astounded. Obviously. But in my eyes, youre quite a match for him.
G-, Got it. Theres no way a guy like that knows how to behave as an adult. Youve got your troubles too, huh, Tilea-chan.
It seems that I somehow got him to understand. Honestly, Im already exhausted before the fight with the dokyun. This is why chuunibyou are problems without end.
Tilea-sama, have you finished speaking?
Yes, we came to an understanding.
By the way, there is something I would like to ask you, Tilea-sama.
Wha~at?
Milady. Why are you wearing such shabby equipment? Is this also part of the strategy?
What? You just said something I cant overlook!
This is bad. Its a topic that touches Loser(Bizef)s heartstrings. It feels like hes going to fly into a rage again because somebody spoke badly of his collection.
Garbage. Do not interrupt my conversation with Tilea-sama.
Hmph. Ignorance really is terrifying. I was a former adventurer, you know. Whats more, I was one of the ten youngest in history to be conferred a knighthood. You get it now? You dont, do you. After all, I heard from Tilea-chan that you were incurably stupid. But if you get too ahead of yourself, I dont mind teaching you.
Garbage, do not speak any further. Tilea-sama, may I have permission to learn the details of the strategy?
You seriously have no idea about the value of things, so Ill teach you. The equipment that Tilea-chan is wearing right now are all rares. Even with a hundred gold coins, you wouldnt be able to buy them, you know.
Loser(Bizef) really hates people finding fault with his collection, huh. Hes insistently arguing with Pervert(Nielsen). It seems that Pervert(Nielsen) is completely set on ignoring him. At this rate, theyll start fighting again.
Niel, dont ignore him and answer.
Yes, milady.
Pervert(Nielsen) turned to Loser(Bizef).
It seems that hell listen to me. I wish Loser(Bizef) would learn his obedience.
Garbage, what rare. Third-rate scrap like this wouldnt be worn even by the lowest ranking soldiers in our unit.
Y-, Youve sure said it now. Then whats rare to you, huh?
The Spear of Rogo Logi, Demonic Sword Exzaibur, The Shield of Raigius for example, all splendid weapons. I have seen them only once, in the treasury in the Demon Capital.
Pfft-, HAH HAH HAH! I was wondering what you were going to say, but it was just ridiculousness. Arent they all legendary mythical weapons? Listing nothing but things we arent even sure exist. You have head issues!
Whoa, whoa, Loser(Bizef). Thats quite right, but youre being too blunt. Be a little more indirect about it. And you went too far. Even if he looks like this, Pervert(Nielsen) has things hes completely earnest about too. He kept Timu company in her games quite a bit, after all.
Bizef-san, you said too much. Please dont make fun of my employees too much.
Haha, sorry, sorry. When it comes to weapons, I just get a bit too passionate
Was Loser(Bizef) also taken about by Pervert(Nielsen)s crazy words? The anger from just now settled down. Haah~ I wonder if theyve made up for now.
