Chapter 130 Kinato 12

As I had thought, didn't have to wait long after we arrived at my villa in Kinato for some military cars to stop in front of it. Logically the one who takes the lead was the colonel who had a rather annoying face... although I don't know if it's because of what his son did, or because we kept him. Well, chances are it's both.

"Tell that brat to come right now!!"

Probably his first idea was simply to invade my property and enter as if it were his house, unfortunately for him, his visit was already expected and for that reason I had placed there as guards almost the majority of my soldiers that I brought from MLDW and the new members that recently joined us.

So when he realizes this, with no other choice he could only scream from the other side of the fence of this place. Right after finishing his words, then he realizes that the person he was looking for was sitting having a coffee together with Shisuka and Rika-san at a garden table here.

"You brat !!Release my son right now or else-"

"Old Colonel, you can go and threaten almost anyone in this camp and they will surely have to bow their head and do what you say.

Unfortunately for you, I don't have to fear your group... I already told you that if you want our group's fight, then I will gladly accompany you at any time "

"..."

Since he had seen me, as I get up and walk towards the door of the villa and interrupt the colonel's words. Also, next to me, Rika-san does the same and so the only one who stays enjoying the cookies on the table is Shisuka who is with us.

After hearing what I say the colonel remains silent, but instead of getting angrier at what I said, he seems to consider my words for a few seconds and then tries to calm down.

"Boy, you have no authority to retain my son... I will take care of him so we better not make things between us worse, give him to me"

"...Colonel, surely the rumor that your son attempted to rape a woman has already spread throughout the camp. If the residents learn that you came to free him using your authority and that I released him agreeing with you, then both of our reputations would be affected.

I know it is your blood and you will probably act in a somewhat impartial way towards him, so I will do both of you a favor and keep your son in custody for a while and in this way, it will not affect either of us "

"Colonel should be glad that he fell into this boy's hands and not mine, otherwise I would just hand you a corpse back!!"

"Lieutenant Colonel Rika..."

It was better for that fool to stay here since was not good to have someone whose only thought is how to kill me walking freely as he pleases. I could also try to get more things from the military side as payment for him, although maybe there is a problem with that... let's be honest, apart from his father, the other lieutenant colonels almost certainly don't will want to even give a bullet for him.

After I speak, being the main victim here, Rika-san unable to bear to keep quiet about this intervenes yelling at the colonel. It seems that part of the fury felt for what she had to go through, plans to vent it on the parent of the main person responsible for that...

I don't think this colonel is a demon since when he sees her, his face seems to have a bit of shame and discomfort at her words.

"...This may just be a misunderstanding, Lieutenant Colonel Rika... maybe that guy just wanted to play a prank on you... although it's true that he undoubtedly went too far, so-"

"Damn! Do you think I'm an idiot, Colonel ?! That bastard had all the intention of raping me and that probably wouldn't end with just that!! Enough, I don't intend to return to a place that is run by someone who plans to protect a bastard!!

Of course that I will not do it alone, many of my unit already had the idea of leaving the military barracks and looking for a better way to live since even hunting rats is now better than staying there "

"..."

This time Rika-san's words cause the colonel to show a bit of nervousness, no doubt this to him was an even bigger concern than his silly son, but either out of pride or he just doesn't want to recant what he said, then he just remains silent.

For my part, I think I should be thanking that guy because my goal was probably going to develop even faster than I thought before... maybe he saved me like a month of time to execute my plans due to what he did.

"...How long do you plan to keep my son?"

"Hmn? Oh, don't worry... I think he wouldn't stay here long."

"...fine. I hope you keep your word, I have other matters to attend to, so I will leave."

Seeing that he probably couldn't change things and if he continued it was almost certainly only going to make things worse for him, the colonel gives up on getting his son back.

I nod at his words and then he turns to leave. So, I and Rika-san stayed at the door for a while watching their group leave here and then we immediately walked towards the villa's mansion.

"...are you really planning to free that bastard?"

"...why not? I think it's a humanitarian thing to do..."

We pass the table where Shisuka is eating and continue walking, then Rika-san makes an annoyed face while asking me that. She probably wants to make him suffer a little more, but I think it's better to end this now...

"D-damn kid, let me go now or I'll have my father crush this place !!"

While Rika-san tries to make sense of my answer since it seemed to confuse her a little, we got to where the 5 people we had held were.

"Alexander-kun, I think you should have a person treat this guy... otherwise his injury may cause some complications, plus it is a little sorry to see him like this"

Ignoring the screams of the guy who kept writhing on the ground, Yuriko-san who had stayed with them to see if she could get some information from them after we brought them, speaks to me pointing to the colonel's son.

"L-listen to that woman... a-at least bring a doctor to check on me"

"...don't worry, I have a tool that will take away your pain quickly... I have already tried it on another patient before... he was satisfied and I did not receive any complaints since all his discomfort disappeared"

"Se-seriously?"

"...I swear what I say is true"

Listening to me, the colonel's son gets quite animated and gets down on his knees holding his crotch with eyes full of hope while looking at me...

"... you better close your eyes because if you see the ar-... the syringe, this can scare you"

After listening to me, he quickly follows my instructions with a smile on his face, he must really have a big pain to listen to everything I said without hesitation, but... now I feel a little bad for him... 

No, I must be professional and follow through on what I promised. I take my colt from my inventory and also a silencer... I have to say that putting the two objects together, I really feel like this is a syringe...

Yuriko-san and Rika-san when they see me preparing the tool, their jaws open unconsciously and the only thing they can do is observe the procedure to carry out this type of treatment. As for the other four men, they tremble while all are shocked… no, it's not just them. This same reaction is also shown by some of the soldiers who were watching here.

[Tsun!]

[Paa]

"" ... ""

"…I-I thought you would release him…"

After the muffled sound of the weapon's percussion from the silencer and the body collapsing, everything is silent for several seconds until Rika-san speaks.

"...I have freed him from his suffering, no?"

"… A-Alexander-kun, will this not create a problem with the colonel's faction?"

"…He probably only finds out about this when he joins with his son. Right now he has a lot of other things to worry about and so he can only put his son's matter aside."

The reaction of both girls is just a bit of a surprise at what happened, well, they were strong-minded women after all so there was no cry of hysteria over this. Furthermore, they seemed to be more concerned with other matters than with the death of this guy ...

"Y-You killed the colonel's son!! Damn, are you crazy?!!"

"P-please don't kill me! The idea to do everything from before was his"

"Y-yes, he's right ... I-I'll tells you everything you want to know, but please don't kill me!"

"..."

Right after our conversation, 3 men come out of the shock of what they witnessed while one continues to process things. Of those 3, 1 of them seems to care a bit about that guy and the others realizing that their situation was worse than they had thought and so they start begging for their lives.

"…I had warned that guy that things would end badly for him if he didn't correct that attitude of his, he ignored me and he even dared to do that to one of my women, so this-"

"B-boy! When did I become your woman ?! Don't think I fall in love as easily as Shisuka !!"

[Beep]

[Affection Rika +10]

"..."

Before could finish what I was saying, Rika-san intervenes raising her voice with her cheeks slightly flushed. The problem was that along with her words, the system also makes a notification inside my head and due to both contradicting each other it baffled me a little and I could only observe her reaction without being able to respond.

But after thinking about it for a few moments, I decided that what the system said was more reliable than what she expressed… I am almost 100% sure that her words are wrong since I have a hunch that it would be easier to complete the affection mission with her than with Shisuka.

"Rika-san, come a little closer... I need to tell you something, but I don't want them to listen"

"Hmn? What do you have to- Hmm ~"

I had to check my thoughts and so I proceed to do just that. After I ask her to come closer to me, she leans in placing her face a few inches from mine, and while she asking me something I take her cheeks and kiss her.

"Puah! w-what are you doing, boy!" 

"..."

This is a bit weird and I wasn't expecting it... after I kiss her she seems a bit upset, but the system tells me that I completed the mission... my first thought seeing this was that she was an extreme Tsundere, but I don't have that feeling of hers.

Looking at the state of affection, then I can only conclude one thing. It seems that she really likes me but whether it was for principles, her mentality, or something similar, this makes deny her own feelings...   

"… I see, so I dislike Rika-san"

"H-huh? Th-that's... I-I didn't say you disliked me, boy... a-actually, I think you're pretty cute..."

"I like Rika-san, I think you are a pretty beautiful girl"

[Beep]

[Affection Rika +10]

"... B-But from what Shisuka told me, you are only 12 years old... w-why we don't wait a few years, i-it's not that I have someone that I like at the moment... I-I can wait for you to grow a little, You know?... S-so if you still feel the same about me... th-then ... m-maybe we can ... "

"… Well, I will not force Rika-san if she is not ready but I will take your words as a promise. I will not let you forget your words and in the future, you will be my woman, Rika!"

[Beep]

[Affection Rika 150 (Engaged)]

"…it's okay"

She was quite cute acting a little nervous as this was in contrast to her personality she normally displays. Probably wanting to return to her normal state, after responding to my affirmation she turns around to avoid my gaze and responds to me.

…It is good to have a promise to be together with a beautiful girl, but I wonder how long I will have to wait for her to fulfill that promise? Besides, haven't I become somewhat possessive recently?

[… You just killed a man for trying to rape a girl with which you didn't have a relationship still, so I think the answer to your last question is more than obvious, Alexander]

Well… Aurora, I don't think many men like to see the girl they like in another man's arms. Also, I think any rapist should die...

[Well, I can't say that I disagree with your thoughts]

"Are you finished?... if not, please continue"

While talking to Aurora, I suddenly feel a chill run down my spine causing me to shiver a little. The cause of this was Yuriko-san who had her eyes on us while having a smile on her face...

I could understand without anyone telling me that her words rather than prompting me to continue, were more like she challenged me to see if I dared to have some intimacy with Rika in front of her...

"I-I'm sorry… we got a little distracted, it should end the things I came here for"

"Y-yeah"

"Fufufu,... that's a shame, it's always a romantic thing to see a couple in love"

Curse! I don't know why, but I had an impulse to kneel and apologize to her… besides, it doesn't seem like I'm the only one feeling this atmosphere that surrounded Yuriko-san since Rika seems to have a bad time for this too.

"You 4, I will give you a chance not to end up as that fool. So it will depend on your effort if you can save your life or not, understand?"

"Yes! I will do anything but please don't kill me !!"

"I also!!"

"Please, I don't want to end up like him!!"

"I will! I will try my best to make anything you ask!!"

It seems that in the time I was talking to Rika, they all had enough time to think things over. Now they were attentive to my words and they seemed to understand their situation well, so this time there were no complaints and they were very motivated to do whatever I ask.

"Well, soon I will need you to do something, so at that moment we will be able to appreciate how much you want to live"

After they strongly agree with my words, then I decide to leave this place... the truth was that I didn't want to be around Yuriko-san while she is acting like that... it was scary.

Outside, I order some soldiers to take care of the body of the colonel's son but since it would be good if there was no evidence for his father to cause us problems for the moment, I also ask Leona to help by giving her my poke-ball and so she can give it to my plant as fertilizer.

"If you leave Kinato's army then why don't you join my group, Rika?"

"Hehehe, I thought you wouldn't ask me, boy. But I don't want you to just accept me, surely several of my subordinates want to follow me so it would be nice if you also allowed them to join here"

"Hahaha, don't worry, if you ended up bringing all the soldiers from that barracks, it's even better"

"I don't think I can convince everyone, but I have a good relationship with several other lieutenant colonels there, I will speak to them but I cannot assure you anything… although I will try a little since I want to see that colonel upset about that... also considering is something that you ask me for"

"... take some of my soldiers, although that old man must think I have his son and so that probably he will not do anything extreme, still it is better to be prepared"

"Fufufu, aren't you very overprotective, boy?"

"Well, I certainly couldn't bear to have something happen to my future woman."

"... W-well, I'm leaving now to do what I said"

Going out to the garden where Shisuka was, I speak to Rika to join our group, although this was more of a formality since I did not plan to let her go on her own. So when she wants to ridicule me a bit, I answer her question seriously.

A little embarrassed by my answer, she ends our conversation and goes to say goodbye to Shisuka, meanwhile, I speak to some soldiers to escort her and a few seconds later their group leaves the village.

It seems that I will have to postpone the trip to MLDW a little since surely these days the military faction will undergo great changes, so it is better that I stay here to observe the movements of that colonel does because of those things.
