Chapter 14: 14 – End of the mission

“What’s the status of the operation?”

 

“Yes, Captain!! Apart from a little accident earlier, everything is proceeding as planned. Their main base will soon be conquered.”

 

“How are the mercenaries faring, I wonder? Did they manage to repel the attack on the planet? Let’s see…”

 

Franz switched tabs on the info terminal and looked at the current situation. His eyes widened when she saw the data displayed on-screen.

 

There was one particular individual who had already defeated almost 45% percent of the enemy ships alone.

 

“It’s that girl… Was there such a skilled mercenary in our system?”

At that moment he received a video call from the same person he was mentioning. Sitting crossed legged, the figure of the beautiful loli could be seen.

“Yo, Captain. I am starting to get bored of these insects. I’ve done my fair share, so this is just to inform you that we are leaving. I have other places to be.” (Kizuna)

“Leave!? In the middle of the battle?” (Franz)

“The operation is mostly done. Your group secured the pirates base. The remaining ships can be dealt with by the rest of the mercenaries. Or did you actually expect me to do all the work for you?” (Kizuna)

“That’s not the case! But to simply turn around now would be…”(Franz)

A cold stare instantly froze the captain and his men nearby. Even if they were talking through a video, that stare was scary as hell.

“Listen, captain, I have sacrificed enough of my precious time and resources to indulge you. And I only did that on a whim. Do not abuse my generosity any longer. As I said when we met, I myself am a ruler. One that stands above all. You better remember this. Try to stand in our way and we will shoot you down.”

The video then terminated, just like hanging up your cell phone.

“Captain…”

“Let them go. It’s better this way.”

“Yes… sir.”

 

"Fu. Who would have thought that such a little girl could be that scary. Instinct is telling me that she wasn't bluffing either. She really might just have the power to shoot us down. It's better to keep her on friendly terms."

Kyaah!! I stretched out extravagantly in my chair and also took off my headpiece. I gotta give my cat ears room to breathe. Honestly it's weird not having actual human ears, but I got used to it pretty quickly.

 

Anyway, I was originally a bit nervous when giving that speech. But I enjoyed it. Say what you want. If you were in my shoes, wouldn't you take advantage of your superiority? Playing the villain is so much fun because I can be myself. Of course, that doesn't mean I am cruel and will discriminate or give unjust laws or shit like that.

 

As long as you listen to what I say we'll all get along and I will also be willing to your side. Something like that.

 

"Stella, initiate the hyperdrive and set course for Jewel Resort. I'm going to take a nap. Wake me up when we get there."

 

"As you wish." (Stella)

 

As I was heading towards my own room. I couldn't help noticing that Alisha was following me. I stopped midway without looking backwards. She also stopped. I took once again a few steps forward, and she followed. When I stopped again she also stopped. I think I repeated this cycle about 3 times.

 

"Umm… Alisha, I told you that I am going to bed now."

 

"Yes."

 

What the hell do you mean yes? 

 

"Is there something you need from me? Why are you following me around?"

 

"I am your bodyguard. I must be near you at all times. I am even ashamed that I had to rely on Shiro to be your escort during your trip around the colony. So from now on, I will not leave your side."

"Eeh!? If you are going to watch me all the time, when will you sleep?"

 

"I won't."

 

Scary… I 'm getting goosebumps here. I didn't program Alisha to follow me around like a stalker. Heck, I probably won't even be able to fall asleep if she watches me.

 

"Can you please not follow me?"

 

"Am… I deemed unnecessary? If I can't fulfill my role… the only option is to kill myself for not being able to fulfill my life's purpose."

 

"Put that sword away right now! I'm not chasing you away. But you also need proper rest like any living organism."

Alisha opened her mouth as if she just realized something. A few seconds after, words also came out.

 

"Of course! If I am tired, I won't be able to properly fulfill my duty to guard you! You want me to be in top shape for whenever the time arises. To think that you would care so deeply for me… my heart is pounding so fast, ojou-sama! I don't deserve such kindness."

 

Alisha just how in the world do you keep coming with such conclusions on your own? Oh well, as long as she gets it…

 

"Then allow me to sleep with you!"

 

I fell on the ground the moment I heard that. She doesn't get it after all. What the hell am I going to do with these girls? You know there were times when I thought that the wall of text I wrote for each character was a bit too much, but I swear, if I knew something like this would happen, I would have written more.

 

If I say something else now or reject her I'm sure she'll burst in tears or say something weird as hell again and I seriously am not in the mood for that. Patience is a virtue, but it was never my strong point, even back in my own world.

 

It's not like I mind sharing a bed with someone. Although I would never do this with a guy. Come to think of it, the only person I did share a bed with was with my mom. It might be interesting to see how this goes. Let's just hope Alisha doesn't snore or anything.

 

"Fine, Alisha. You can sleep with me. I'll just use you as my body pillow."

 

"Body pillow? I'm not familiar with the term."

 

Don't they have body pillows in space?

 

"Never mind. You'll learn soon enough. Just follow me and don't ask any questions."

 

"Understood!"
