“Can…. Can you stop stepping on our Young Master’s head?” Hakurou asked. His hand was still on the hilt of his sword.
“Are you sure he won’t start making a fuss?” Tomoya asked as she looked down at the red-headed ogre. He was still struggling away but unable to move.
“Do not worry. I will make sure he does not do anything.” Shion walked over with her massive sword on her shoulder and grabbed the collar of Benimaru’s armor. Tomoya lifted her leg, and Shion picked him up off the ground and grabbed him back to their group.
“Alright. So what is going on?” Tomoya asked as she sat down. Remmi transformed into a slime and hopped into her lap.
“A slime?” Benimaru asked in confusion.
“Yep. Isn’t she cute?” Tomoya asked proudly.
“Yes?” Benimaru did not expect such a question and answered without thinking.
“Too bad she’s mine.” Tomoya chuckled as she looked at the group of ogres in front of her. “You all seem worse for wear, for now, since you know we are not enemies, why not come back with us? You can rest and tell us your story. You can eat and drink and have a roof over your head.”
“Alright. I will trust you for now.” Benimaru was much more clear-headed now. It seemed that having his face smashed into the ground helped with this.
The group headed back to the village, where everyone gathered in the meeting room that Tomoya had Kaijin build. “So what exactly happened?” Tomoya asked. Remmi was back in human form but still sitting in her lap. Remmi seemed to be staking her claim.
“Orcs…. That fucking beasts attacked our village and began…. Began….” Benimaru eyes were red with anger and grief.
“I see….” Tomoya sighed. It was a major loss, but there was nothing she could do about it. She needed Benimaru and the others to become Remmi’s subordinates.
“Tomo… if this is the case, then our village might be dragged into this as well.” Kaijin had a worried expression, but then a thought came to mind. “Is this why?”
Tomoya raised her hand and pressed her finger to her lips. “You never know what is to come. If you wish to fight off an enemy, it is better to prepare ahead of time. This is why I asked you to make so many weapons and armor. We need to be ready for anything. Why do you think I have had everyone training so hard? I want to be able to keep our people safe with out issue.”
“Umm…. Can I ask who is actually in charge of this village?” Benimaru asked. He could have sworn when they arrived that Tomoya said that Remmi was in charge.
“Remmi, of course. She is our leader.” Tomoya replied with no hesitation at all.
“Why do I feel like I do nothing, though?” Remmi asked.
“Because you are cute and only need to sit and give orders,” Tomoya replied while rubbing Remmi’s head.
Benimaru leaned over and whispered to Hakurou, “It seems this Tomoya is the true leader while Remmi is the face.”
“I had the same thoughts, Young Master.” Hakurou also felt this way.
“Anyway, let’s do this. Allow me to name you.” Tomoya grinned. She wanted to name Benimaru and the rest.
“Name us!? But there is a huge risk in naming someone!” Shuna was the one to speak up at this time.
“It’s fine. Unless you do not want a name? I just figured if you wish to get stronger quickly, this was the best route to take.” Tomoya tilted her head in confusion. Acting as innocent as possible.
“Alright. If you are willing to name us, then I am willing to accept. But I must ask, just how strong are you?” Benimaru was not against it, but he was still confused as to just how strong Tomoya truly was.
“Hehe…. Hakurou attack me.” Tomoya grinned.
Hakurou furrowed his brow slightly but still stood up, drew his sword, and disappeared. Seconds later, he was standing next to Tomoya with his sword stuck between her fingers, staring at her in shock. “This…”
“Your speed is not bad, but I have fought faster monsters. Anyway, let’s get to naming.” Toomoya did not wait for Benimaru to even speak before giving him a name. She watched as he glowed brightly before it dimmed down. She then shot off the rest of their names, according to the story.
“Are you okay!?” Shuna asked worriedly. She looked at the fox girl whose tails swayed back and forth unsure what to make of what she was seeing. To be able to name all of them and still seem to be fine. This did not make sense to her since even high-level Majin would find it hard. She began to wonder if Tomoya was on the level of a demon lord or not.
“Mmm… I am fine. But you guys sure did take a lot of mana. Anyway, let’s celebrate!”
