Arifureta Chapter 117 (1/2)

When we entered into the room, it was a fairly plain rooh to hold about 30 people On the upper seat of the table sat a man, the Emperor of the Hoelscher Empire, Gaharudo D Hoelscher, who had a fearless s his chin on his hand There are 2 people behind him, they had a keen air about the

And, although we couldn’t see their figures in the room, there was also 2 more people on the other side of the wall, 4 people in the ceiling, and Hajime also felt 2 people soundlessly outside the closed door they cah It wasn’t only the 2 behind Gaharudo, the other hidden men seemed to have been considerably skilled as well

[So, are you Hajiumo?]

When Hajiroup entered, Ririana also introduced thes to Kouki as the hero, Gaharudo released pressure while looking at Hajiaze

It was pressure fro man who ruled over several hundred thousands of people ild and strong and believed in the nature of power It was no joke Ririana as also in a royal fa pressure, Kouki’s group backed away instinctively

However, fro pressure, these 5 people, Hajime, Yue, shi+a, Teio, and Kaori, were calm In the first place, even Kaori who had little experience survived from the attack of an immortal monster thats been alive since the ancient times at the [Merujine Undersea Ruins]

So although the E pressure, when co more than a soft breeze

Gaharudo’s mouth lifts up roup is unphased, then Hajime answered

[Yes, I’umo Its an honor to have been known by you, your Majesty the Emperor]

While placing his hand on his chest and lightly bowing, Kouki’s group looked at Hajime with astonishment at his words

Their eyes opened wide and clearly conveyed, [Who are you!] Especially Ririana as shaking in unease While receiving Gaharudo’s overpowering pressure and raising a sed, it wasn’t able to conceal that she was staring at Hajihast expression

Hajime also knows of the TPOTi it

But, because he had business in the Imperial castle this time, he didn’t want to be thrown out because he disrespected the Emperor Since he shouldn’t believe in God anymore, the title of “God’s Apostle” is probably not effective anymore The only way to pass is with the title of Hero Thats why, he judged that he needed to at least use the bare ed person was definitely still Hajime

[Kukuku…I never even considered this What happened to your usual arrogant attitude? N? It’s quite different from the cries of a certain princess somewhere?]

However, Gaharudo only

Hajilanced over at Ririana [Princess~, You, just how much did you unnecessarily talk about,A~a?] Ririana as receiving Hajilance, ~Pui~! looked in another direction When Gaharudo asked what kind of person Hajireat deal about her treatment

[……Ha~a, that’s right hm then, as usual]

[Kuku, then it’s fine]

Though they were surprised of Hajie, they sat down in order

Finally after Gaharudo reaze off Hajime, he noticed Yue and them who took up their positions by Hajinificantly glance at shi+a in particular Following that, he turned his gaze towards Kouki’s group…he looked at shi+zuku as next to Kouki and a grin appeared on both his lips and eyes

[shi+zuku, it’s been a while Have you finally decided to become my wife?]

[O, oi! shi+zuku already declined before!]

Kouki reacted to Gaharudo before shi+zuku did Gaharudo’s glances over at Kouki for an instant, then back at shi+zuku and started laughing hysterically Kouki had the “I don’t care” attitude but veins were appearing on his forehead

While sighing at the 2 people, shi+zuku had a clarified face and answered

[I have no intentions to take back my previous words I’ll have to decline your Majesties offer]

[Quite heartless But, it wouldn’t be interesting otherwise More than the world, allow ood I await the day when that clarified face is dyed in red fro for me]

[That day will never cohout all of eternity …Or rather, don’t you already have an Empress?]

[What about it? Are you dissatisfied as a concubine? Fual wife……]

[I didn’t mean it that way! You’d place your hands on other woman other than the Empress…]

[What are you saying? I’m the Emperor? 10 or 20 concubines are normal]

[Gu~……that’s right A, anyways, I will not becoive up]

[Ma~a, since you won’t be returned by God anymore, you’ll probably be stuck in this world for a while, I suppose I should take my time to convince you Kuku, prepare yourself, shi+zuku]

It appears that Gaharudo really likes shi+zuku As expected of a greedy Eive up even when he’s been refused His sharp eyes were coh shi+zuku looks aith an expression that seemed to hate him from the bottom of her heart, she also seemed to not care at all

Then, at that tined with Hajilance at that tihs)] a color of amusement and interest was clearly included

The angered shi+zuku just used her finger to play with the sugar cubes that were prepared for her tea Although it wasn’t as strong as Hajiar cube fleith excellent power, it’s ai towards Hajime’s hateful face……

However, it wasn’t a direct hit, it flew into Hajio~ Hajime’s mouth moved around with an air of flaar cube was firmly satisfied, he sed it shi+zuku’s face was , however Hajime’s was clarified

When Gaharudo saw her in such a state, he turned his sharp glance back at Hajis

[Fu~n, this is quite the interesting situation ……Hajih I have a mountain of questions that I want to ask you, first of all, answer this]

[Ah? what is it……]

[You, have you already e implied my shi+zuku?]

[ [ [ [Bufu~u–!?] ] ] ]

To Gaharudo who abruptly asked such an unexpected question with an eager expression, several people including shi+zuku blew out air

Even the guards that aiting behind Gaharudo, [Your Majesty……the first thing you wanted to ask, was that……] with a pained expression They also seemed to be worldly-wise men

[Wai-, your Majesty! Just what are you suddenly saying…]

[shi+zuku, you reht now]

Naturally, although shi+zuku tried to burst Gaharudo’s bubble with a tsukko it On the other hand, Hajime had an amazed expression

[What did you think about to reach that conclusion]

[It appears that shi+zuku has the heart to forgive you……Judging from that manner, it’s not impossible, so just in case]

[Ha~a, there’s no way that would happen]

[……Fuht Then, what do you think of shi+zuku?]

To that question, all the glances in the roos froroup pierced him

Hajih about why the first question asked by the E him was about his relationshi+p with shi+zuku, anyways he turned his gaze over to shi+zuku shi+zuku’s expression was supposed to be extre her neck

It appears that shi+zuku’s ears began to slightly redden…

For the tiiven

[……She’s like a mother]

[OK, that fight you’re looking for, you’ve won it Get off the table, Nagumo-kun]

a young 17-year old girl was being held down, of all the things to say, as it “She’s like aon her seat and was getting up was conveying with hatred in her glare at Hajio had already disappeared Suzu and Kouki ere next to shi+zuku were panicking and desperately tried to hold her down

[……I didn’t think it would be such a boring answer…… in love now? Because you’re mine]

[I’ve already said this but, I have no intentions of being his Majesties and I’ve also not fallen for Naguet back to the main subject]

[I get it, I get it Don’t get so angry An excessive denial will only be taken as a positive one?]

[Nuguu~u……]

shi+zuku instinctively tried to raise a groan in objection to Gaharudo but decided to sit down loudly Suzu callaring at Hajime

[Haji your hands on shi+zuku?]

[Be relieved, I don’t have the faintest interest in doing that Rather, if you’re only going to idly chat, I’d like to leave now?]

[Our chit chat was unneeded huh It’s a talk about a new concubine……or Empress that may appear you know? It even involves the Empire’s future…ma~a, what I wanted to talk about certainly wasn’t about shi+zuku You should already know right? It’s about your abnormality]

Gaharudo bought tied it was the proper tied It was different from the playful atave off a radiance of a sharp blade

Gaharudo cut to the chase and asked the biggest reason for roup

[I’ve heard about it to soree from princess Ririana You’re soreat labyrinths and obtained the ability to create artifacts……completely repelled the Majinzoku’s army, and was able to travel the distance which would normally take 2 months in less than 2 days, such an artifact Is it true?]

[Ahh]

[And you have no intentions of sharing those artifacts with neither the Kingdom nor Empire?]

[Ahh]

[Fu~n, one person ?]

[Whose permission is required? If I’ to do about it?]

Gaharudo steeled his eyes to Hajime’s response

The E her teeth and orrying nonstop The bodyguards behind Gaharudo began to release bloodlust before Gaharudo did In contrast, the presence of the people ere hiding in the rooan to dio state

Towards the tensed air Kouki’s group had stiff faces and steeled themselves for battle

However, Hajiroup completely warded off the breeze-like bloodlust with their own heavy bloodlust which could be felt sticking onto their skins, then callanced at the locations of where the hiding people’s hidden presences were [Have we been noticed?] they said

did they notice properly, their presence that could be felt shook slightly

[Hahaha, stop, stop it We were coenuine flesh and blood ht noe’d be completely annihilated!]

Gaharudo was laughing hysterically and hid his aerous airs also ly

[Why do you look like you’re enjoying this so much?]

[Oi, oi, I’uy, it’ll be a lie to say that your heart doesn’t dance around right?]

Kouki’s group, although they couldn’t understand as going on, they let out relieved breaths because the atmosphere was less tense, Hajime also tsukkomied the unusually happy Gaharudo Gaharudo’s ansas definitely one of those who believe in the abilities reign supreme policy

[Even so, those woeous Oi, where did you find them? For there to be women of this caliber, I want to ask you a request directly…allow umo]

[Don’t say such foolish things You’re in over your head…no, it ht be fine if it’s Teio]

[~!? Wh, what did you……say, master casually wants to selltreated so…I can’t get enough of it Haa~ Haa~]

[There’s a slight problereat woman appearance-wise]

[Sorry, even the E with pervertedness is too much]

[Th, this guy, to say it right in front of the person being talked about! Kuu~uu, N~, N~, surely, after this I’ll be forcefully taken by his Majesty, ht before e my underwear]

Even Gaharudo and theely refreshi+ng expression Then they turned their gaze to Hajied thehis throat

[As for ininzoku there? I’ve never seen an Usagininzoku with that kind of hair before and she coarded my bloodlust as well That ht a while ago, how about that one?]

Towards Gaharudo’s word “Toy’s”, shi+a’s eye twitched for an instant in reaction Yue as next to her, clasped her hand quietly underneath the table

[Even if you tell me about your toys…]

[You can’t think of anything, you o check theh they’re a woman and a child, they’re quite——]

[I’m not interested]

Gaharudo’s words were a bluff Through Caht were already rescued He’s probably trying to ask baiting questions Compared to that, Hajime’s ansas only a line

However, Gaharudo’s attack wasn’t over yet

[Ho~o, those fellows had special short swords and equipment on the 5-star level, even then you’re not interested, Synergist()?]

[None]

[…I see By the way, yesterday, there were soeon, the Imperial castle was easily invaded and they escaped, that kind of thing could only be done with a special artifact’s( ) about it?]

[I don’t know]
