Arifureta Shokugyou de Sekai Saikyou (WN)

「Geez, dear you really……there is no way Kaori will accept that suggestion right? There is Shizuku-chan, and also her friends at school back there.」

「Pe, perhaps that’s true but……」

Tomoichi’s eyes were swimming while he was feeling stinging pain on his cheek. Seeming very reluctance, he whispered「Even so, I think that idea is not bad though……」

Currently Shirazaki family was heading to the home of Tomoichi’s parents where both his parents and his older brother and his wife were living. Tomoichi’s elder brother and his wife had a daughter that was four year older than Kaori. That daughter was a really helpful daughter even though she could be a bit frank, she was an existence that was like a big sister for Kaori. The home was near the sea, so the two of them often played at sea together with Riko of Ayasaki family who lived next door.

Kaori was an only child, because of that too she really idolized Sakura, when Kaori was little she often clung at Sakura while throwing tantrum「I don’t want to go home yet」. Due to that, Tomoichi was thinking, could Kaori possibly consider moving there even now……could she be distanced from that nasty shitty brat……and so on, but…….

Kaoruko who seemed to clearly grasp those thinking inside Tomoichi’s heart was giggling while saying about the thing that Tomoichi didn’t want to hear the most, about the reason why Kaori was displeasured, about the young man that was the reason that Kaori absolutely wouldn’t accept moving home.

「Beside, you see? There is no way that Kaori will leave the town where Hajime-kun is don’t you think?」

「Stop it Kaoruko! This is our long-awaited family’s homecoming without any outsider you know!? Don’t say anything about that shitty brat who dare to make a pass at the cute angel of our family――」

「Otou-san?」

Tomoichi felt a chill at his back and twitched. He understood even without looking. This was, a presence that really resembled his wife’s! It would be there if he looked back! The incarnation of fury that his daughter inherited from her mother before he noticed――the Hannya-san!

But, just with this much, Otou-san wouldn’t lose. For the sake of his beloved daughter, the apple of his eye!

「Ka, Kaori, calm down? My words just now is a bit poor. But, as expected Otou-san, about that bagwor――ahem-. That tras――ehem-. That shitty――」

「……I’m going home right now. I won’t listen anymore to what Otou-san say.」

「Nooo! Kaori, listen to what I’m saying! Otou-san is thinking what is best for Kaori’s sake……」(TN: Here Tomoichi is saying nooo in English.)

「Otou-san is badmouthing Hajime-kun, because Otou-san is thinking what’s best for me? I never thought that Otou-san is that kind of person.」

「You are wrong, Kaori! Even Otou-san doesn’t want to say bad thing about, Ha, Haji, Haji――about that guy. But, but still? While that bastard already has Kaori, he still made many other girls to serve him and open their legs for him, on top of that instead of feeling guilt, he is acting defiant you know? Do you think there is any father that can entrust his daughter to that kind of shitty bastard? No, such father doesn’t exist! I’m telling this for your own good. Kaori, cut your relation with that cocky rubbish scum――」

「I hate someone like Otou-san so much!」

「Gahah!?」

Tomoichi who was hit by the speech that would empty the HP of the father at the whole country if it was said to them by their daughter, caused the car to zigzag once more. With tears gathering at the corner of his eye, Tomoichi was leaking out the voice「No waaay, Kaorii, My Angeeeel~」looking really pathetic. (TN: The ‘my angel’ here is said in English.)

A few months after Kaori returned home from the other world Tortus. Tomoichi and Kaoruko were already introduced to Hajime. From the beginning, before the summoning, Tomoichi and Kaoruko already knew that Kaori had a boy in her mind, but putting aside Kaoruko, from the start Tomoichi was already unable to stomach that boy――Hajime.

It wasn’t like Tomoichi had a clear reason. It was the feeling of a father whose really treasured daughter might be taken from him, that feeling might even be called as a conditioned reflex. Tomoichi sometimes even bared his hostility toward Kouki and Ryutaro. If he acted like that even to the childhood friends of his daughter, then Hajime who had started to live inside his daughter’s heart before he noticed was already like his sworn enemy, that really couldn’t be helped.
