Log Horizon - Shiroe's sister

Chapter 47

"Conversation~"

Thinking thoughts

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

"Rin, you would be taking both mine and Crusty-san's position. If anything you are not sure of, you can contact me. Otherwise, work with Michitaka-san and handle the defence here, if needed," said Shiroe while patting his sister's head.

After a while, he rode his Griffon and took off with Akatsuki.

"And, they left," Said Michitaka.

"*Sigh* And, I have to take care of both Senpai's and Onii-chan's seats... Save me Michitaka-san..."

Michitaka pities the girl and pats Rinne on her shoulder, "Good luck... We both need it..."

At least you should say something like do not need to worry, just leave it to me... Michitaka-san... Rinne sweatdrop while resign to her fate.

"*Sigh* After everything is ended, I would definitely pester them for at least a free meal... Though, Senpai would give his famous sadistic smile... Oh well... If I am not wrong, there will be another meeting with the nobles, right?"

"Ah... Right... I really don't understand these nobles and their way of thinking... With the current situation, they still wish to have their 'important' meeting... It is more like several kids vending out their childish argument..."

"Well... I can bet with my whole life that once they see me entering, they would surely give that judging look like how dare a woman try to attend this 'important' meeting... Especially after Princess Raynesia's outburst..." Rinne rolled her eyes while talking with Michitaka.

Currently, both of them are walking back to their destinated living abodes to have a meeting with the remaining adventures before the meetings with the nobles. Believing that only left Michitaka as a representative of Akiba, Rinne had predicted that the next meeting would be a verbal war to attempt making Michitaka fall into their trap (at the very least).

"Welcome back, Michitaka-sama. Rinne-sama. I believe that Shiroe-sama, Akatsuki-chan, and Crusty-sama had left to Akiba, along with Princess Raynesia?"

"Yup. And, since everyone is here, we shall start our meeting to prepare ourselves for the next verbal war with the nobles."

"Ojou-chan, I would be there to give you moral support. Hence, could you please do the talking?"

"*Sigh* Michitaka-san... As I had told everyone many many MANY times, these nobles have the mindset of men are superior leaders as compared to women. Thus, do not expect that they would not call out your name for your opinion. I would promise to try to control the meeting but it is a tough challenge with 1 female vs a dozen of males."

"Rin, do you need me to join in? I am one of the representatives also."

"I wish I could but there is something that requires the help of your guild, Sou-kun. As everyone knows that this is the event of Return of Goblin Kings, we must not let our guard down even if the possibility of goblins would arrive Maihama is slim."

"Ah... So you want my guild to do the defence?"

"Yes. Due to the current situation, the battle guilds would be spilt out. D.D.D and Black knights would be the front line. Honesty would be staying at Akiba in case of emergency and defence for Akiba from the possible attacks from the goblins. Hence, West Wind Brigade would be handling the defence here. There are 2 reasons for having your guild here instead of Honesty. The first reason is due to the overall power of your guild would most likely be sufficient enough for defence. If anything goes South, I have some cards under my sleeves. So, there is no need to worry. The second reason is due to the number of members in your guild. Of course, it is easier to avoid detection from the nobles due to the small amount. This would help to decrease the chances of us handling the overall huge army size in Maihama panic noble drama. However, if a guild with less than 100 Adventurers is able to defend Maihama against hundreds or even thousands of Goblins, what do you think the nobles would react?"
