　Thanks a lot, Yamajun. You raised your hand first since you know that Japanese, especially students, were rather troublesome in this regard. When an influential person like Yamajun raised his hand, the others would also follow suit.

「Yosh, everyone is in this plan!」

Yamada raised his hand, yelling vigorously when he saw that everyone has the same opinion.

「Yeah, let me in too, Momokawa!」

「Me too」

「Don’t forget about this aquamancer, the key to your plan」

The Totem Pole Trio raised their hands too, agreeing to my plan.

Well then, now that I got everyone’s approval, I’d no choice but to get the plan going … Right? But wait a minute, there’s another party member, right? That sole female member …

「What about you, Ayase-san?」

「Eh?」

What’s with that “Eh?” Reina whose face completely puzzled when I suddenly asked her raised an adorable voice- L0l1con limited- and looked at me with a dumbfounded face.

「Did you hear what I said just now, Ayase-san?」

「Uhm, yes?」

「Is there something you do not understand, any question, or idea?」

「Uhm, nope?」

「Then, do you understand what we are going to do?」

「Uhm, do your best, everyone!」

Reina was cheering for everyone.
Yup, it seems this sh1tty b1tch still didn’t get the current situation.

Well, suit yourself, Reina A Ayase.
That’ll save me from a lot of trouble, and I have no intention to pamper a sh1tty b1tch like you. I’d completed all the preparation to make this 『Spiritualist』 fought a splendid battle as our vanguard in this kind of case.

「When it comes to the tough boss fight during Goma’s fortress capture operation, I think we’re severely lacking in manpower, or rather, we would most likely be annihilated―― But, the chances of our victory would shot up if we’d Ayase-san’s 『Spiritualist』 power to assist us.」

「Oi, wait a minute, Momokawa! Are you trying to make Reina-chan join the battle!?」

「Do you think I’m such a cruel man? It’s a dangerous battle in which we might die after all.
Ayase-san is a girl, after all, I’ll be ashamed as a man if I force her to fight.」

Yeah, as long as I grasped her weakness, making her join the battle regardless of her consent was an extremely simple matter.
And I was not referring to brainwashing magic or such.

「It’s up to her to decide whether she joins the battle or not.」

「I-I’m no good with the battle!」

Meanwhile, that b1tch was already showing a tearful face.

I see you hate battle that much huh.

「Uhm, I understand.
Then I take that Ayase-san is okay with no meal, bath, and hammock bedding, right?」

「Eh?」

「I’ll only use my power for those who join the battle, not for those who don’t.」

Now choose, Reina A.Ayase.

Can you, a sh1tty ne3t, go back to living on walnuts, bathing in cold water, and sleeping on the lawn again?

Or else, you’ll lend your fairly useful bodyguard in exchange for a comfortable hammock, hot bath service, and sumptuous meal from me.

「E-E~h, why~?」

「We were fighting, betting our lives on the frontline.
And you basically do nothing.
Anyone can see there’s a huge difference between the two, right?」

“”

「B-But, I-I’m not good at battle!」

「I don’t really care whether you can fight or not, you know? Because you don’t even need to do anything.」

Have you finally realized how irresponsible you’re up until now? The combination of your cute crying voice and tears aren’t gonna work on me, I’m invincible against l*li..

Fuhahaha, you need a super cu*vy bodies like Mei-chan’s if you want to take me down.

「U~U~UH!」

「Yeah, this is also an important decision related to our life, Ayase-san.
Take your time to think about it―― Okay, thank you for the waiting, let’s have breakfast, everyone.」

I started the thawing process of last night’s leftover great boar hot pot with a saintly smile of a sister who gives food to the poor people.

Everyone was looking at the hot pot that started to release an appetizing aroma as it got heated and a crying Reina with a bewildered look on their face.

「Is something the matter, no one is eating? It’s to die for you know.」

There’s no way they could forget the delicacy of the pieces of meat that were floating on the pot along with its irresistible aroma from the last night.
Someone had already gulped their saliva, and couldn’t wait any longer to pounce on the pot.

「C’mon, it’s ready you know.」

「… R-Reina-chan! You can eat my portion!」

Lo*licon-kun shouted with the expression of someone prepared to commit sui*cide.

Well, I’ve prepared a countermeasure against a bad child like this too.

「Ah, my bad then Yamada-kun, it’s against the rule.」

「WUUUUUUUUT!」

「Anyone who shares their meal with Ayase-san won’t get a meal from me, that’s the rule.」

「Y-YOU LITTLE! DON’T BOSS US AROUND!!」

「Even if you say that I’m bossing you around, this stew is made with my shaman’s skill you know.
The same goes for both bath and the bedding.
From the very beginning, everything has been MINE.
It’s up to me to use it as I please.」

I flash froze the stew, the simmering hot stew became a block of ice in the next moment.

「It’s up to you if you want to eat walnut with Ayase-san ..
Or enjoy this delicious hot stew if you abide by my rule.
And Yamada-kun, I really hope you play by the rule, you’re our greatest manpower after all.」

「D*mmit … Momokawa … Guys, you better not eat too!」

Good grief, this here might be the Japanese proverb, ‘when one suffering, everyone feels the same way’.
Reason? Because it’ll ease the suffering if everyone feels the same way! I also think it might be better if you guys share the same suffering.

「Eh, no, I mean…」

「Well, I pity Reina-chan for sure, but still…」

「But we’re going to lose our power unless we eat….」

As expected, no one was stupid enough to obey Yamada’s absurd order.
No one could bear the temptation of delicious food when it was right in front of their very eyes.
It was the worst torture for them.

「C’mon guys, have some shame as a man!」

「Ueda-kun, Nakai-kun, Shimokawa-kun, your power is necessary to capture Goma’s fortress you know.
It’s okay if you want to eat, you don’t need to hold back you know?」

I spoke to those three while mimicking Mei-chan’s gentle smile.

Honestly, I don’t hate the Totem Pole Trio’s guts.
They did have a criminal record of trying to kidnap Takanashi Kotori before, but it didn’t really matter to me considering the situation.

At the very least, those three would cooperate with me in this capture plan.
I mean, they did the job I assigned to them properly after all.

That’s why I didn’t want them to become a victim of a sh*tty girl like Reina.

「D-D*mn it all! Don’t give me that sh*t Momokawa, you don’t have the right for that!」

「Then what will you do? Are you going to kill me? If you do that, you’ll lose all previous luxury forever and go back to your survival-like living.
And don’t forget, by the time you kill me, my 『Pain Return』 will kill you too.」

「Y-YOU LITTLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!」

「Calm down, Yamada-kun.」

Naturally, the one who called out to the enraged Yamada-kun who was almost flipping over the stew was none other than Yamajun.

「What’s the matter!? Don’t try to stop me, Yamajun!」

「I understand your anger for Ayase-san, and personally, I pity the cruel treatment for her too.」

「You’re f*cking right!」

「But still, it doesn’t change the fact that we still have to risk our lives in the upcoming battle.
I admit that you’re powerful, Yamada-kun, but even that is still not enough to guarantee that you won’t die in this battle.」

「I f*cking know that too!」

「Uhm, what I mean to say is… we also have no leeway to protect Ayase-san.」

I almost couldn’t hold back my laughter.
I mean, despite the serious discussion, the way Yamajun talked was like a parent telling their naughty kid.

「W-What’re ya talking ’bout! We will protect Reina-chan, otherwise, who will protect her!!」

「It’s okay, Yamada-kun.
You don’t need to force yourself anymore… leave Ayase-san’s matter to Souma-kun.」

「WA!?」

Pfft–Poor Yamada-kun―― Nonono, hold your horse, me, I absolutely mustn’t laugh at him…

「Souma-kun is alive you know.
He even gained a powerful vocation called 『Hero』, there’s Kenzaki-san, class rep, and Sakura-san in his party, their goal is to save everyone.」

「Ha~h… W-W-What’s with that…」

Yamada~, do you really think that Reina would someday notice your existence if you kept protecting her? Dream on dude, as if she could forget someone like that Souma-kun… Ha~h, what a pitiful unpopular man you are! As if reality would work per your wish.

I understood that sorrow.
I really did, but sorry, it’s too hilarious you know.

「Momokawa-kun met Souma-kun and Co.
before he met us you know.」

And got betrayed by that Kenzaki Asuna, which caused me to be separated from them, XP.

「Souma-kun’s party is far stronger than our current party.
That’s why they must be waiting for the arrival of the other classmates beyond this point.」

「Then, what, am I….」

「Yamada-kun, you already did everything you can to protect Ayase-san, it’s time to give up.」

Yamajun patted Yamada-kun’s trembling shoulder as he told the cruel truth to his friend with a sad face.

「I, I am… AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!」

Thus, the sorrowful wail of a broken-hearted man resounded in the fairy plaza.

Hey, can I laugh already? I mean, this is too hilarious.
