Volume 6 Chapter 98 (1/2)
Chapter 98 - Reunion, Recollection
With an AK47 in my left hand, A PKM in my right, armed to the teeth with frags and concussion grenades, 2 panzerfausts on my back, 2 belts of 7.62x54R ammo crossed over my shoulders clanked against the grenades.
My face was smeared with war paint.
The headband on my forehead fluttered, as I stormed into the waiting room that I knew all too well.
“Who’s that guy?! That b.a.s.t.a.r.d is trying to make a pa.s.s at our Eru-sensei? I’ll shove my hand so far up his a.s.s that I’ll break his molars!”
“Uoo!? Wha, what is it, who are you!?”
“Sooo iiiit’s yoooou, huuuh!!!!”
Sitting in the waiting room was a man.
He was a big man that towered at 190 cm and had short hair and beard, both grizzled. One of his eyes was covered by an eyepatch.
If we were in my previous world, he would give people the impression that he was a colonel.
He looked old -- somewhere between being middle-aged and about 1-2 steps before becoming a member of the elderly.
This b.a.s.t.a.r.d doesn’t even think of his age and dares to put his hand on Eru-sensei, huh?!
He’s probably a scoundrel that was dazed by Eru-sensei’s beauty, charm, and her overall existence so he used his money and influence, or the excuse of the continuation of the orphanage to get close to her. No, that must be the case!
In other words, there’s no problem even if I destroy him.
“Don’t think that I’ll leave even a piece of you left!”
“Hah?! Wait! I-I’ve never even seen you before……”
“I won’t hear any excuses! How about a nice cup of shut the f○ck up (go eat a bag of s.h.i.+t)!”
I pointed the AK47 and PKM’s barrels at the man.
“Lute-kun! What are you planning to do to my friend!?”
“Ow ow ow ow ow! It hurts! It hurts, Eru-sensei!!!!!”
Eru-sensei, who had just came in, later pulled my ears without restraint.
The last time she pulled on my ears was when the revolver exploded and made her really mad.
I put the equipment away and, by Eru-sensei’s order, I sat on the floor.
It was like seiza from the previous world.
Eru-sensei puffed her cheeks angrily.
“Really, Lute-kun, to be so rude towards our guest. Even if he’s my friend, there’s a limit to what you can joke about, you know.”
“Yes, I’m sorry.”
I apologized while continuing to glare at the man.
My kind-hearted sensei didn’t notice that and introduced the man before me.
“He is sensei’s old friend, Garuma-san of the human race. He is a level 5 adventurer of remarkable ability, you know.”
“Eru-san, I’m just a ‘former’ adventurer now.”
The man called Garuma smiled wryly at Eru-sensei’s introduction.
I see… His name is Garuma, huh…… Now, I’ve committed his name and face to memory.
I absolutely will not forget.
The Snow group members who were sitting in the waiting room asked,
“Eru-sensei…… Are you marrying Garuma-san?”
Garuma burst out laughing at Snow’s question.
“Ahaha! No, certainly not. I already have a wife, daughter, and even a grandchild. I don’t even have the slightest intention of putting my hands on Eru-san. So that’s why his face went red and attacked me huh. You sure are loved as always, Eru-san.”
“Geez, Garuma-san, please don’t tease me.”
They laughed together and gave off a peaceful atmosphere of close friends. It was a misunderstanding then…!? Who?! Who was the scoundrel that put his hand on Eru-sensei?!
“So, who is Eru-san marrying?”
Continuing after Snow, Lyss asked.
That’s right. That’s what I wanted to ask! Nice question, Lyss!!
“No, I’m not getting married. Garuma-san only brought it up by saying, ‘I will introduce you to someone, so would you care to give it a try?’ I was planning to refuse from the start, though.”
He brought up the marriage talk?!
As I thought: Isn’t this guy the enemy?!
And you have to annihilate enemies, right!?
I let out a growl from my throat as I stared at Garuma.
Snow’s group sent me shocked looks, but I paid them no mind.
“......Then, what is it that you wanted to consult with us?”
Snow looked away from me and asked again.
Eru-sensei told us the summarized explanation she received before we arrived.
