Chapter 148
Chapter 148 - Correcting the Sexual Harassment
It seemed that Killing Leg finally rose to Lv3 .
This was more than just an increase in power . The Passive further evolved to strengthen the legs at all times, not just when attacking, so her movement became more agile . And that mobility was even stronger due to her『Nimble』Skill . Although it was a surprise attack, that ability was enough to send Jiraid flying and knock him out with a single blow . Even though she wasn't wearing her Dragon Ogre Greaves .
And that ability woke up due to anger . Killing Leg had gained a moderate amount of experience due to『Kazane Neo Bazooka』and budded due to the user's intense will .
「So, what happened?」
「I kicked the sexually harassing father . 」
Jinrai and Yumika showed up in front of the Barnes family villa with bitter faces . By the way, it seemed Jinrai didn't know this was the Barnes family villa . This grandfather didn't visit his family very often, so that was understandable .
「Grandpa」「Grandfather」
Lyle and Emily were surprised at Jinrai's sudden appearance . Well, that was natural . Their father abruptly showed up, told them their grandfather was dead, was finally defeated with a kick after a quarrel with a child, and then the grandfather that was said to be dead showed up . It was impossible not to be surprised .
「Hm . You guys?」
Jinrai was a little surprised, but this was after his son had been blown away . Successively seeing his grandchildren's faces wasn't enough to disturb his calm .
「The circumstances are strange, but it has been a while . Have you been well?」
And he didn't forget to follow up with his grandchildren . It was their first reunion in 3 years .
「Yes . I've been doing my best with the spear I received from grandpa . 」
「I have also been appropriately spending my days so as to not be ashamed of calling myself an adventurer . 」
After Jinrai's words, the grandchildren answered promptly . For the siblings, Jinrai was someone they met every few years, and while he was stern, he was a strong and dependable grandfather . Furthermore, Jinrai always said「I'll leave the disciplining to my son」and didn't particularly scold his grandchildren . While Jinrai was a rough person, when he was living with the family he was careful to avoid speaking impolitely or critically, so it seemed he was different from Jiraid . Jinrai's cheeks loosened as he nodded after hearing his grandchildren's spirited voices .
「That is the most important thing」
Although his limp son was in front of him . His face immediately tightened once again when he looked at his son .
(My grandchildren don't seem to be angry at Kazane and haven't said anything even though my son is like this, so I'm certain something must have been said that angered Kazane, but . . . . . . )
「So what was said that led to this situation?」
Jinrai thought his grandchildren would be able to correctly explain better than the angrily huffing Kazane, so he changed the target of his question .
「Although you ask what . . . Umm, grandpa, there's something I'd like to ask you . 」
「What is it?」
Jinrai didn't particularly mind his question being answered with a question and lent an ear to Lyle's question .
「Is grandpa a member of the White Party?」
Jinrai nodded to that question .
「The name White Party spread by itself, but I'm certainly a member of the party called that . 」
To that response, Lyle muttered「After all」and Emily looked at her grandfather with surprised eyes .
「So, this is probably the Ogre Killing Princess . . . san . 」
To Lyle's gaze, Kazane said「No way . I'm suddenly like another person…」and turned her face away in a huff .
「Well, that's right . This Kazane is the leader of the party . 」
Jinrai was also embarrassed to introduce a child smaller than his grandchildren as the leader .
「You were such an amazing person . Is calling you Kazane fine?」
「It's okay . Being formal is a no thank you . 」
Lyle frowned and said「Alright . 」From their conversations, Lyle generally understood Kazane's character . He understood that she wasn't the scary girl he had heard from the rumors .
(Although, she blew away my father with one kick)
Whatever her personality, Lyle thought her ability might match the rumors .
Then Jinrai and his grandchildren went to check Jiraid's condition and Yumika approached Kazane .
「Did you do something again?」
Her friend's words were harsh from the beginning .
「I don't know . I met Naoki's friends and went with them, then Jinra-san's son showed up and started falsely accusing me of being a whore . 」
After Kazane's words . Yumika was shocked and said「What is that?」To the best of Yumika's knowledge, the best friend in front of her was far away from being such a person . As if she wasn't even a girl . . . it wasn't to that degree, but there were many things she found more interesting .
「Whore? . . . . . . that's pretty extreme . 」
However, Kazane's next words were ones that absolutely couldn't be overlooked .
「He also talked about Yumika . He said something like there was a girl who was feigning to be a disciple but was really a harem member . 」
After Kazane's words, Yumika was twitching and her shoulders were shaking .
「What was he saying?」
Yumika was proud of being Jinrai's disciple . She couldn't forgive the words that dishonored that . While watching the situation of her best friend, Kazane was curious about something and asked .
「So Yumika, the other members aren't coming?」
「Ah, yeah . That's right . Although Louise-san was saying it would become complicated if she came . 」
Facing Jinrai's son was a rather troublesome matter for Louise . And Louise also noticed that the girl she teased was Jinrai's grandchild . It would be better to meet in a calmer situation .
「Naoki and Tiara paired up to shop together . 」
Yumika's words had a slight implication, but of course Kazane didn't notice . Since she believed there weren't any woman who could like her younger brother .
「Well, I hope the problem will be settled before Naoki comes back . 」
Kazane was thinking of the nice surprise for her brother, but she didn't want them to reunite in this tedious situation . She wanted a more moving reunion .
**********
「Tsuuuu」
His sensed awakened . Jiraid Barnes regained the consciousness he hadn't realized he had lost and opened his eyes .
「So you woke up? Jiraid . 」
Then Jinrai greeted him .
「Fa, Father? Ah, it seems my consciousness cut off for a bit . 」
So saying, Jiraid started to rise and reached out to Jinrai's outstretched hand when
「 . . . . . . You!」
He slapped away the hand .
