The Tale of the Teapot Hero's Revenge

Mr. Leah's troops returned to their home country yesterday after helping Forestia with her reconstruction (plump) work for a few days.

To see if our testimony is true.

That said, we know.

So much so that Tartus is just a bunch of lying and hypocritical motherfuckers.

It's only a matter of time before he's abandoned from his home country.

Maybe we don't need to do anything anymore, but I still want to see what happens.

To do so......

"Let's head to Corcute, Toka"

"I thought I'd tell you, don't you have anything to do if Atashi and the others go? Why don't we just go back there?

Toka snapped her neck as she stirred the mixed fruit juice with straw.

We are in the second city of Harnest, Turies, the country of the elves.

A stylish cafe on its main street.

It takes more than half a day to walk from Forestia, but a Magic Machine Dragon (Gargoyle) would fly away in a matter of minutes.

I don't have enough supplies for that city right now.

I was done staying and eating in this city.

"I didn't mean to get ahead of you. I thought about it."

"I don't think..., I don't see what it is, Atashi"

That's right, Toka hasn't met him, has she?

In this situation now, how do you know that the most dependable companion is in Corcuete?

"Actually, to Corcuete --"

"Beat sister, the shortcut cake looks delicious! Would you like to swap a bite for your crusty fruit tart?

"... eh"

Wait, what are you doing, Beat?

Why are you holding the cake you stabbed in the fork in Melo's mouth...?

"... oh, I knew it was okay... I don't want to be a gutsy stew for a piece of cake..."

……

That, sudden change of heart.

Beato's wondering, too, but what's wrong?

Let's go.

Let's get back to it, Toka.

"Ooh... Kirie, I'm not gonna say anything bad, so apologize to Melo later, okay?

Apologize, I did something to Melo.

It's like Toka's face is pulling on somehow.

"I'm scared...... I'm scared that you won't look at me..."

Oh, could you be scared?

To me?

Why is that?

"... well. As a matter of fact, our people are infiltrating Corcuete to gather information."

"Well, that's your first ear. What kind of guy is that?

"Say Joana. I'm a paradigm person, but I'm a master of intelligence gathering and infiltration, and I guess I feel like a very reliable sister."

Without him, the peace of mind is completely different.

I can't tell you if my mouth is torn in front of me like this.

"I can count on you, sister, huh? You're wearing athletes and characters!

... No, what about that?

I can rely on it. I feel the vector is somewhat different, and it's the opposite of height and chest and everything.

"Joana might be grasping something, and if Leah uncovers the evils of Tartus, you might be able to attach a collaboration with Stige. You should have us there then, too, absolutely."

"It was Atashi and the others who blew a lot into Mr. Leah. Is it smoother to be there?"

"I can kill Lou Golf when he throws himself away."

So far, we've been hunting two Tartus army guys.

I don't feel like losing to him or anything anymore.

"... I knew you were ahead of the kill."

"That's not true, is it?

I am calm.

I didn't say let's punch him in without a question.

Just kill the butch if you resist.

"... eh"

Whoa, did you look scared?

Beato snapped me.

"It's okay, I'm calm."

Take a sip of the tea you were ordering and take a breath of relief.

It tastes a little bitter, so you want something sweet.

"Hey Beat. Give me a sip of that cake too."

…… ... Huh!?

Did I say something strange?

Beato's face boiled up bright red, and the fork arose on one hand.

Then I sliced a piece of cake like I decided to, stabbed it in a fork,

"... eh"

He offered it to me.

"Oh, that, Beat, what...?

Is this what you were trying to do to Melo earlier?

Uh, what is he!?

"Ugh..."

What should I do?

Is he the one who should do this?

... Yeah, it's more unnatural to say no here.

It's okay, Melo. I was trying to be okay with the other guy, okay.

Even friends usually do it, and it shouldn't be weird.

"Ah, uh..."

Pfft.

... That's sweet, this cake.

○ ○ ○

Fly lightly with the Toka's Magic Conductor Dragon (Gargoyle) for a few hours.

Arrived safely in Corcuete, a demonic country.

It's amazing how fast you can travel on a journey that takes days to walk.

Cairon, the king's capital of Corcuete.

Standing in the desolate wilderness, it is a city big enough not to take a crack at Diete, the king's capital.

The Devil's Land is withered and crops are difficult to bear fruit.

Instead, the Demons possess advanced fabrication techniques for magic items.

The country was made up by exporting them to human countries and other subhuman countries and importing food instead.

But because Burtoghu plunged into war, the imports stopped and went into a state of food distress.

Toka taught me that in a small village it seems to be in such a bad state that there are also starving dead.

By the way, we're in the middle of an operation meeting in the inn right now.

"... but the city was crawling around."

The atmosphere in the city, it was quite surprising.

When I first came to King's Capital, the people on the road looked like they had no dreams or hopes, but this city is very vibrant.

"I can predict. He took over the King's capital and sent a pile of supplies to his country."

"Oh, I see. Ratings from the country have skyrocketed, savior hero Sama."

If Burtoghu had died, the war would have ended anyway and Princess Perne would have lifted the ban on the export of food.

"Don't get really annoyed, that bastard..."

There's a lot of annoyance in Tartus, but above all, it's the good guy who's annoyed.

We blur what our leaders have been struggling to build up from the side.

"I'm really upset right now, too. I want to beat you one shot......!

Melo feels motivated, too.

I want to get my hometown Fregenta crushed back, that's what I told you about this trip.

If anything goes wrong, you're going to fight with me.

"Melo, don't hurry up. Everything will wait for Mr. Leah to act."

That's the elder, Toka stabbed me with a nail first.

"Mmmm..., I know... Unlike your sister Kirier, she doesn't move ahead of her kill intentions..."

No, I think you're being rude. That's...

"So, Killier, Mr. Leah's troop arrival is scheduled for tomorrow, but until then, what do we do?

From Forestia to this point, a day if you hurry with a horse.

Troops are centered on horseback riding, but there's also transportation of supplies, so it takes two days to arrive.

The departure was yesterday, so the arrival is scheduled for tomorrow.

"Of course, look for Joana"

Joana's been collecting information in this city for about a month now.

It's about him, so he'll be searching for useful information.

"The problem is, it's refreshing to see where you are... I'll see what I can do."

"You don't have to."

A sudden voice heard from outside the door.

I reached for the swordbreaker that was standing on the wall and immediately noticed.

"... that voice, Joana?

"Yes, because of you."

The chatter and doors open, featuring a wavy, cream-colored hair sister.

I lost my guard because I thought it was an enemy.

"Don't threaten me, Joana. Long time no see."

"Yeah, it's been a while, Killier. Ugh, it's been a really long time..."
