Chapter 201 (1/2)

Yeah, we are on towards the end of the novel so let’s get hyped everyone!!

Thank you for all your comments and feedback!!

Now enjoy the oldest question of humanity.

Original:

The next day after cleaning up the bonfire, we head towards the Port City Motampe.

I’ll mantain the status quo with the thing about Freud and I’ll blame his lack of common sense on him being a former god. I will also not pay attention at what Freud said later…

We crossed the plain in between the Imperial Capital Iscoa and the Port City Motampe and we find two men on each side of the road that leads into the forest.

While humming, they seem to be thinking about something.

From their looks they seem to be bandits without a doubt but, I can’t understand the reason of why are they in this open space where they can be seen from everywhere.

I also thought that their companions might be hidden inside the forest but, thinking about the distance from here to the forest it’s quite long so that even normal people might have enough room to escape without trouble.

And so looking at them like that I wonder if they are really troubled by something.

But they’re still bandits so I can let my guard down.

Just to be safe, we rise our awareness and at that moment, they notice us.

“… Ah, what the hell are you lassies doing? We are talking about somethin’ important right now so we won’t attack you, now get going!!”

“No, wait. I thought they were only women but there seem to be men to. And two of them. Let’s ask them too!!”

“Ah!! That’s good!! With just us two, we won’t get anywhere!! Hey you punks!! The two men come here!! The women stay there and don’t move!!”

The two bandits say that while signaling with their fingers for Freud and me to go there.

I exchange sights with Freud.

“… What do we do?”

“I think that whatever Wazu-sama decides to do is fine but; well, let’s see… As long as it doesn’t causes any trouble to the madames, there will be no problem in hearing them out. I don’t think they can hurt us…”

I feel unsettled at Freud’s affirmative answer.

I get the feeling that it’ll be something troublesome… Or more like bothersome…

But, as Freud said, the only ones capable of hurting us might be just the Evil God and in extension, Shiro or the Goddess of Darkness.

“… So be it. I’m actually curious about what are they worring about with such serious faces, and if it comes to it, I can just send them flying.”

I tell the girls not to get close and entrust them Meru.

I also told them to fight back if they need to, just in case.

And so, together with Freud, I get close to the bandits.

“Good, you came. And you also left the women over there. This is a talk that can’t be heard by women…”

“So what is it that you want to ask of us?”

The two bandits put on serious faces and prepare to talk.

If it’s something suspicious or if it’s something troublesome for people, I’ll send them flying…

“Yeah, actually…

Are you of the briefs faction or the trunks faction?”

… Haa!!

I blanked out for a moment.

I can’t take on some information that I don’t want to understand.

What is this guy saying? Is he sane?

Why did it abruptly turn into underwear talk?

As it is a pain in the ass, I’ll hit them and get this over with.

“… I see.”

When I’m about to hit them, I heard a voice of understanding from besides me.

Of course, the one besides me is Freud.

When I turn to look besides me, I see Freud meditating with his eyes closed while assenting with his head.

“That’s a theme that has worried the men for ages.”

… Eh? Is that so? Is that something so deep?
