Chapter 264: The Idol of the Aligerous Tribe
Everyday we searched for the remnants of Sydnia and leveled the Aligerous Tribe. During breaks from that, I was followed by Berkut in the multipurpose space of the base.
「Takumi-sama, please take me to the town on our day off~.」
「Uh, well, that might be okay if it’s in Accuros.」
「Really?! You promised!」
This sense of closeness with Berkut was entirely different from when we first met.
「Hey Sophia, what do you think is up with that?」
「She has gotten extremely attached, hasn’t she?」
「Well, she must have realized Takumi-sama’s charm.」
Maria had her arms crossed as she agreed. Kaede who was mimicking that gesture beside her was cute.
「I’m not all that sure but……」
「Fufu, it is not just the Aligerous Tribe though, but even the Beastkin, Devil Clan, Oni Tribe and the like have a tendency to be captivated by excellent men. That tendency appears to be especially strong in the all-female Succubus Clan.」
The Aligerous Tribe and the other races were also like this, but in cases where the races of the parents are different, there was a 50% chance to be born as either race. And since it’s a 100% chance if the parents are of the same race, coupling with a different race typically doesn’t happen. But in this harsh world, they seek strong, excellent males even if they were of a different race.
What’s with that?
「Beastkin are prolific, so if twins or triplets are born, half would be the mother’s race, so mothers are not too particular with the race of the father.」
Marnie, who was by my side before I realized it, informed me of the sense of values of the Beastkin.
「Perhaps because they’ve been restricted to only their race for the past 200 years, she instinctively wanted to avoid their blood from getting any thicker than it already is.」
「Sophia-san, what are you guys talking about?」
「It’s nothing.」
It was the one most like our comrade among the Aligerous Tribe, Berkut. The girl who was raised in a small community until now must have been starved of communication with girls of other races, which include familiars, near her age.
「But you see~ the eyes of other people from the Aligerous Tribe are scary. Especially Bagworm-kun, he glares at me with a scary face.」
「It’s okay even if you ignore that bagworm.」
「Bagwooorm! Trashbuuug! Poopy buuug[1]!」
Kaede sang a strange song. Should I warn her? She looks like she’s having fun though so, I guess it’s fine.
Bart-kun seems to have be called Bagworm, Trashbug, and Shit-bug with Akane’s horseplay of a military training. I can’t help but pity him as another man.
There were other young girls aside from Berkut in the small community that Valkan-san acted as the elder for. They were very young though.
The young girls aside from Berkut were 3 and 5 years old. There was another young child, a boy aged 7 years old which totals to only 3 children.
Yep, there was no other girl in marriable age aside from Berkut. She was definitely popular, huh.
「Berkut! Come here! Don’t get close to that human!」
When she tried to talk to us, Bagworm-kun – Bart-kun stormed in, yelling.
「What is it Bart, stop shouting so loudly. You’re such a bother.」
「Wha?! You are my fiancée aren’t you?! Don’t get near the wingless!」
「I don’t remember becoming your fiancée!」
Gah
Bart-kun grabbed Berkut’s arm and pulled.
「Ouch! You bastard, that hurts!」
Pachiiin!!
Berkut’s strong slap hit Bart-kun’s cheek.
「Guh, don’t fuck with me! I am the next chief!」
「You’re the one who should stop bullshitting! Who would make you the chief?!」
What’s with Bart-kun? Ever since I first met him, it’s like he’s gotten worse and worse. I wish he would calm down a bit more. I don’t hate him.
「Oi! Human! This is a duel!」
「Eh? Me?」
「Who else is there but you!」
Did he lose his marbles? Bart-kun challenged me to a duel.
「Oi oi oi, are you an idiot, Bart? No matter how much you try, you will NEVER win against Takumi-sama.」
「Doesn’t this guy only get his slaves and familiars to fight!? There’s no way I, the next chief, will lose to someone like that!」
That’s not it, Bart-kun, I was in a different team. You haven’t seen me fight, have you?
「……Fuu, there’s no saving him.」
「……he deserves death.」
「……should I tear those wings off?」
Oh crap, oh crap, oh crap! Sophia, Maria, and Marnie are seriously mad. If I don’t stop him…… as I was losing my mind about it, a figure approached Bart-kun.
「Poopybug, you are 100 years too early to be fighting Takumi-sama nya. Poopybug’s enemy will be Lulu nya.」
Lulu-chan posed with her hand gesturing to him to “come on”.
「You impertinent beast brat!」
Perhaps looking down on her, Bart-kun took a swing at Lulu-chan.
「Pugya!」
With a smooth, quick step, Lulu-chan got close to Bart-kun who tried to hit her, countering with an uppercut. Tiny Lulu-chan’s attack was just like the shoryuuken of certain fighting game[2].
Dosa!
「How stupid, you can’t beat Lulu. It looks like my training isn’t enough.」
「「「「 Hiiiiiihーーー!!」」」」
The moment Akane said so, the shrieks of the Aligerous warriors echoed.
Akane… in moderation, okay?
