Chapter 10: Chapter 9: 『 』 Has Come to Declare War!
Nangou Haruya's mission is to[Conquer 'at least' two countries...], which means he must become the representative ruler of at least two Nations.
It also means that as long as Haruya is willing, he can stay here until he becomes the representative ruler of all countries and defeats the One True Deus, Tet.
Of course, Haruya is well aware that it won't be that simple. After all, just becoming the representative ruler of two countries is already a serious challenge.
However...
If he so chooses, Haruya could immediately head to the Sirens and complete their queen's game.
After all, the queen of the Sirens is just a masochist. Stepping on her or insulting her would grant him control over the Sirens, making him their representative ruler...
Not only that, according to the storyline, he would also gain a daughter...
At eighteen years old and still a virgin, Nangou Haruya is about to have a daughter... 'That doesn't sound too bad, right?'
Pondering such thoughts, Haruya leisurely spent his morning. The breakfast brought by the beast-eared servant girl was mostly meat, typical of the Werebeast race.
"I should go out and see what's happening. Staying here all the time isn't a solution. I need to find the right approach."
Haruya believes that teaming up with the sibling duo, Sora and Shiro, isn't impossible, but doing so would mean he couldn't obtain the Immanity's race piece.
In Haruya's view; Immanity, Werebeasts, Sirens, and Flügel are the four races currently easiest to conquer.
That said, obtaining the representative pieces of these races won't be easy at all.
Sora and Shiro aim to establish a Federation of Twelve races, while Haruya's goal is entirely different... 'domination'. Fundamentally, their objectives are at odds.
"Good morning, desu."
In the hallway, Haruya ran into Izuna, who was followed by several rabbit-eared girls. She was holding her bath bag, seemingly having just finished bathing.
"Did you just take a bath, Izuna-chan? I thought you hated bathing?"
"Are you an idiot? We have guests coming today, desu."
"Guests, huh... Where's Ino-san?"
"What's it to you? But Grandpa is busy right now, and he needs to contact the headquarters, desu."
Nodding along, Haruya stretched lazily. It was the perfect time for a nap.
"What a useless Immanity, desu. Haruya, don't you have anything to do?"
"Well, I do... apart from self-generating electricity..."
"Self-generating electricity... desu?"
"Never mind. It's just that I find this embassy quite interesting since I just got here... Say, Izuna-chan, can I go see the visiting guests later?"
"If Grandpa allows it... desu. But you, as a negotiator, can't just appear in front of those people, desu."
`That's true. To the Werebeasts, I'm like a traitor to the Immanity race. But if the guests are Sora and Shiro, then it's not a problem. ʼ
The important thing is that Haruya must find a way to defeat Sora and Shiro, as their goals conflict with his.
'They want to establish a Federation, while I must conquer two countries. There's a clear divide...'
The way Sora and Shiro defeated the Werebeasts was through their unbeatable calculating abilities. To break that deadlock, there's only one way...
Leaving aside the underhanded method Haruya thought of, let's focus on the present.
"I hope to participate as well, because I know who the visitors are." Said Haruya.
"I'll talk to Grandpa. If he agrees, then it's fine, desu."
Haruya patted Izuna's head, "Thanks, Izuna-chan."
Izuna twisted her neck slightly, her eyes narrowing in a comfortable expression.
And then Ino caught him...
"You damn hairless ape, don't just touch my granddaughter."
Seizing the opportunity, Haruya shared his thoughts with Ino. As the deputy ambassador, Ino clasped his hands behind his back, showing a puzzled expression, "How does Nangou-dono know what will happen? Even the gods(Old Deus) probably don't possess such an ability..."
"It's not foreseeing the future. I just analyzed the current situation."
Of course, that was a lie.
Faced with Haruya's words, Ino seemed to let out a light hum, understanding the truth behind Haruya's statement.
"Since you are both from the Immanity race, participating together is fine. They won't make any strange requests or agreements anyway."
With that, Ino and Izuna turned to leave...
Before leaving, Izuna waved at Haruya, who leaned in to hear what the loli had to say.
"Do you still have the chocolate from yesterday, desu..."
"I have two more boxes. Come over tonight to eat, and we can sleep together too."
"Definitely to the former, no to the latter, desu."
Haruya watched the grandfather and granddaughter's retreating figures, their tails swaying as they disappeared around the corner.
"I should get going too."
With that, he began exploring the Werebeast Embassy.
During this time, Haruya accidentally walked into the beast-eared girls' bathroom twice, using his Checkpoint ability to escape fatal consequences...
But since Haruya kept flirting on every floor, he eventually stopped bothering to Save and Reload, letting nature take its course.
Before long, Ino prepared to welcome the arriving siblings, Sora and Shiro. Before that, Ino found Haruya.
"I heard that an Immanity has been harassing the embassy's maids and servants. Would that be you, Nangou-dono?"
"Haha, I have no idea what you're talking about."
"You sure love to joke. Please, Nangou-dono, do not touch their ears and tails without permission." Warned the elderly Werebeast.
"Sigh... What about their heads? Or their butts?"
"Do you perhaps want to stay here forever? A hundred years-"
"I take it back."
Although Haruya can Save, his combat abilities aren't high, and he has no way to block pain. Getting caught would be troublesome.
With Ino's permission, Haruya and Izuna waited in the preparation room next to the meeting room for Ino to bring in Sora and Shiro.
"By the way, since we have some free time, want some snacks, Izuna-chan?"
"What snacks, desu?"
"Chocolate of course."
"Sure, desu!"
Opening the chocolate he brought, Haruya took out a piece and held it in front of Izuna's mouth, "Here you go."
"Ah~"
"Wow, Izuna-chan, want to try catching the chocolate in mid-air?"
"No, I'm not a dog, desu."
'What a shame...'
Feeding the loli piece by piece, Haruya sat up straight upon hearing footsteps.
Soon, the door opened, and Ino ushered them in and introduced, "These are the King and Queen of Elkia, this is the Eastern Federation's ambassador to Elkia, Hatsuse Izuna, and... this hairless baboon."
"What do you mean, hairless baboon?!" cried out Haruya.
"I told you not to feed Izuna randomly, you a%#hole... Ah, my apologies."
In any case, Haruya followed Izuna into the meeting room.
Sora and Shiro, just as Haruya imagined, quickly ran up to Izuna.
Sora: "What is this, such a cute creature!"
Shiro: "Take... home..."
"I said stop it! Don't just touch my granddaughter, you knuckle-dragging gorillas!"
Ino scolded them, while Jibril, who followed the 'Blank' siblings, snorted, "My masters are not to be spoken to like that by lowly creatures like yourself. Be silent, filthy mutt..."
Well, this is a normal start, isn't it?
