Vol. 1 - Chapter 8.3: World Saviour (3)
"P-Pleased to work with you."
Right in front of Takashi, Uhouguru bowed down and smiled awkwardly.
"Ah, yeah. P-Pleased to work with you."
Takashi also returned the awkward greeting.
On Nephira's orders, Uhouguru was dispatched to Suzukiland. Takashi's territory was located on the western edge of the outskirts of Leirune, and there were concerns that enemies might infiltrate from the outside.
(But what enemy? The world is almost completely controlled by the Demon Lord's army, right? Why would they strengthen their defenses after all this time?)
He had one more question. While they were walking to the place where Uhouguru would be staying, Takashi asked her about it.
"Uhouguru, did you quit, being a torturer?"
"Ya. Because Suzuki doesn't like it when I abuse humans, right?

"I, don't want to do, anything that Suzuki doesn't like."
Takashi glanced at Uhouguru. Although she is a tough-looking person who is now a former torturer, she is kind to him. He was glad to hear her clearly say that she would never torture humans again.
(And if they are protected by Uhouguru, the people living in Suzukiland will feel safe, too!)
He didn't know how strong Uhouguru was. But, according to what he heard, she was even better than the Silver-rank soldiers. As a protector, she was extremely reliable.
Takashi smiled at Uhouguru with a grin.
"Then, I'm counting on you! Please protect the people who live here."
"YES! I, definitely, will protect them!"
As they walked along, they arrived at a small hill where they could enjoy a panoramic view of the interior and exterior of Leirune. Nearby was a watchtower once used by humans.
"This is where Uhouguru will stay!"
It was a depilated and desolate hut. He felt somewhat sorry for letting her stay in such a place, but Uhouguru didn't seem to mind at all. She took out bugs from her chest as usual. Two creepy bugs were wriggling around.
"Want, bugs? Today, a male and a female, a mating pair..."
"Don't need them."
"I see..."
"If you need anything more, just let me know."
"Suzuki, you're leaving already?... "
Takashi waved goodbye, but Uhouguru had a sad look on her face.
"I'll come visit you to play once in a while. So please keep an eye on the town, will you?"
"Y-YES! I, will work hard, to protect Suzukiland!"
Thus, Takashi parted ways with Uhouguru.

A few days later.
"...I'd like to talk to you about Lady Uhouguru."
When Excella started a conversation,
(Right off the bat, something went wrong...)
Takashi thought to himself. However, Excella smiled cheerfully.
"It seems that she noticed wild dogs tearing up the fields and chased them away. Hyde was very grateful, and he hoped that I would pass this on to Lord Suzuki."
"He---! I see!"
(What!? Uhouguru is trying her best?! I didn't need to worry at all!)
Orneo stroked his own beard in satisfaction.
"It's about time we reap our first big harvest. The soldiers of the Thunder-Lance Charge will be pleased."
Fish and the like were sent to the Thunder-Lance Charge every time, but vegetables and fruits took longer to produce. However, it would also be possible in a few more days.
"It's starting to feel more and more like a village."
"Orneo. It's not a village, it's Suzukiland!"
