Chapter 27: The Retirement of a Gladiator
After the battle with Alana, we had come to a restaurant to eat.It was a celebration of victory, butfor some reason, there was also a loser among us.
"Here, Yuta, give me a kiss.
The loser was attached to me so tightly that she wouldn't leave me.
"Heysister! Get away from Yuta!
It was Nanami who said this, with a slightly different vibe than her usual quiet demeanor.
"Ohwellyou're jealousbutI'm Yuta's property! I'm his property, and I'm allowed to be around him and make out with him!
What's your logic?
"propertyYuta! I'll be Yuta's property too!
Heywhat are you talking about, Nanami
Waame too!
For some reason, Farma started saying that too..
"Hold onfor now, Alana, it's hard to eat when you're so attached to me, so get away from me.
When I say so, she surprisingly obeys me.
"So, are you sure you want to be Yuta's property? Yuta says you don't have to become his property.
Of course I will! I'll never leave Yuta! I'll always be with you, Master.
Ughmy head hurts
"Ive made enough money and Ill quit being a gladiator. What about you?
"I'm quitting too, I don't have any opponents anyway.I've been an advisor, but it hasn't been fun, so I'm retiring just in time.
"Well, I don't mind, but a double Highlander would be useful for my next business venture.
Jean just said something strange.What's the next business? And what's this strange feeling? I couldn't keep quiet and asked Jean.
Jean, what's your next business venture?
Didn't I tell you, I'm going to start a mercenary group?
Wait a minuteyou didn't tell me you're staying after I purchase the Magicrafts.
You can't just abandon me when you're done with me.
Nothat's right, but
Think about it, those ladies over there, the double Highlander gladiator and Yuta who defeated her How can we not make a mercenary group with this lineup?
"I don't knowI don't need to make any more money.
"Why not? You know, you never told me what your ultimate goal was.
We're going to defeat Ludawan.
The Kingdom of Ludawan? Come onno matter how strong you are, you can't go to war with a country.You'll need more money for that.
What? Is that so?
Of course. Without supplies, there's no war.
But
Alana, who was listening, also joins in the conversation.
"Yutathat man is right.You can't fight with a country just because you're strong.
That's how it isI was thinking of defeating the army and getting the leaders to apologize to Farma. Looks like that's a naive idea
"What does a mercenary group do?"
Simply put, it's war. You're hired by the government to fight the enemy.
No, I can't let Nanami and the others join such a dangerous thing!
Yeah, that's true Well, you and Alana can start off with the two of you, and then we can get more people to join you.
That'sfine, but
It seems that Jean can't be beaten with words.
"No! If Yuta fights, then Nanami fights too!
Me tooI'll fight too!
Somehow I had a feeling you two were going to say that.
"Nanami, Farmathis is warit's absolutely dangerous.
But we were going to fight Ludawan; Ludawan is a country too, what's the difference?
Yes, Yutawe can fight too.
Wait a minute..I'm starting to think this is another one of Jean's plansanticipating that the two of them would say thisI really can't be too careful. He's a really tricky guy.
"All right, you two, we'll fight togetherbut don't overdo itand run if you're in danger.
When I said that, they nodded cheerfully.So, it's decided that we're going to form a mercenary group.
