Saving 80,000 Gold in an Another World for Retirement

round the radio.

[Roger that!] (Mitsuha)

And I replied using the microphone in my hand.

There’s no need for me to reply, but by having a mutual exchange, we can let the rest of the convoy know that we’re their allies, even if they don’t understand the words we speak.

And to make doubly sure, this time I said these words…

[Those who have evil intentions towards my devout servants and hindered their noble duties.
Look upon my wrath!] (Mitsuha)

I handed the microphone to the member-san and switched on all of my equipment.

A halo on top of my head with rotating lights.

A big star that stretches between my both shoulders and shines while changing color one after another.

A suspicious pendant on my neck that shines in different patterns one after another.

And a magical girl’s light-stick in my left hand.

…right, they’re the things that sold well at festivals and night shops.

Then I opened the upper hatch of the car and stuck out my suspicious-looking upper-half body while paying close attention to arrows that may fly towards me.

And I once again grabbed the microphone…

[If you throw away your weapon and surrender within 5 seconds, I will spare your life.
5, 4, 3, 2, …] (Mitsuha)

It looks like none of the bandits wants to surrender.

…or maybe they’re just stunned, unable to process what was unfolded in front of their eyes…

But if I were to overlook these guys right now, they will attack this convoy on the return journey, the next convoy, other merchants, basically everyone, from now on, always…

So I’m going to purge them all, here and now.

It’s not like that this is their first offense, and they’re already violent murderers.

Unlike the old continent, it seems that there are not many [professional] bandits around here.
So maybe they’re… were just peasants trying to take away supplies.

But now they’re just bandits.
Even if they’re just doing this occasionally, it cannot be an excuse.
Whether it’s their full-time job or part-time job, there’s nothing different for the attacked.

[…one, zero!] (Mitsuha)

Tatatatata…

The thundering sounds of the 5.56 mm light machine gun mounted on the car resounded, and the bandits fell one after another.

It’s doesn’t mean that they don’t know guns, but the guns they know are the single-shot guns that use spherical ammunition.
So, for them, these light machine guns are like [mysterious beam weapon of alien technology] from a Japanese perspective.

…yes, a superweapon beyond imagination.

I can hear the sound of the light machine guns fired from behind too.
Because we started shooting after giving the warning, so of course, the guys at the back began shooting also.

The bandits are confused and run away.

Well, we don’t need to exterminate every single one of them.
It should be enough if we have several people to spread the rumors around here that those who tried to attack the convoy were beaten so that they could not function as bandits.

And in order to boost the morale of the convoy and so that the bandits who were able to escape to spread the rumors, with the speaker, I declared…

[The goddess is pleased with thy actions! Thee should continueth to fulfill that duty with pride!] (Mitsuha)

“ “ “ “ “ “Ooooooh!!!!” “ “ “ “ “

Loud cheers came out from the convoy.

Naturally.

The words from the goddess conveyed by the angel.

Just how many people were able to be honored with such a thing in this world?

With this, they will protect the loads at the risk of their lives.

…yeah, it’s the birth of [Death Soldiers].

Uselessly deployed troops in useless places? Then they’re [Death Pieces].

Death soldiers are not those who are already dead, but those who are not afraid of death.

For the country.
For friends.
And to protect the family.

There are various factors that could give birth to death soldiers, but the worst among the worst is…

…right, it’s something like this, that is to say, the so-called [religion].

It’s the worst, yeah…
