Another World’s Highest Guild Leader ~I’m the weakest in the guild, but I can’t quit the guild because of the heavy love of all the guild members~ - Chap 47: I Want to Be as Graceful as Possible in the Beastman Country, but It\'s Too Late for That Now, Isn\'t It?

“Ugh…”

“Heh.”

Garga grins, showing his teeth as he lands his punches.

“Ah…”

“…”

Horus punches with cold, emotionless eyes.

The fresh blood on the dry asphalt moves and spreads like a living creature, maintaining a certain viscosity. Each punch sends lines of blood scattering across the surface like strands of yarn floating on water.

“Yuyu, you don’t have to force yourself to watch. It would be better if things like this didn’t happen.”

“Y-Yes…”

Realizing that Crow had seen through her, Yuyu turned her back on the arena.

And that was fine by Crow. It feels good to get back at those who abandoned you, and it’s very satisfying. But ideally, such things shouldn’t happen. Yuyu is a good girl. She probably won’t experience hatred or revenge in the future.

He looks towards the audience. Some are covered in goosebumps, some scream, and some… have tears in their eyes. Everyone is pale, speechless.

…Is it about time? Killing them would be going too far.

Crow raises his hand towards Fel, standing beside the referee.

“That’s enough.”

Fel speaks quietly.

Garga’s eyes, filled with madness, lock onto Fel.

“Hey, Fel, don’t get in the way.”

Garga, gripping the collar of the limp Garus, emits a murderous aura.

“Oh? You’re going against me? Do you want to get beaten up after such a long time?”

“Huh, let’s do it then.”

“As much fun as that sounds, let’s not. This is an order from Crow-sama. Disobeying would mean going against him.”

“Tch… The master has…”

Garga looks in our direction.

Garga seems to be in a bad mood for being stopped at a good point. It’s not good to be his usual cheerful self right now. For now, I put on a face with a consciously cold gaze.

“Hiiv… I’m sorry… I’m sorry…”

Durga cries, apologizes, and continues to get beaten up. He just waited for time to pass, but it never ended.

“How pathetic… To think someone like this cuckolded me…”

He had thought his opponent was more manly and stronger than him. But now, all he does is sob. There’s no satisfaction in continuing to beat someone like that.

“…Is this all my revenge amounts to? The rest will fall apart on its own.”

At that moment, he felt a gaze.

It was from Crow, who was in the special seats.

The cold gaze was filled with an eerie, chilling intensity.

Horus stopped his hand.

“The winners—Garga, Horus!”

The referee hurriedly announced as Garga and Horus stopped fighting.

The medical team quickly carried Garus and Durga away.

Garga walked up to Horus, who was standing still.

“…Good work.”

“…Yeah.”

“What now?”

“Normal treatment won’t work for recovery. No choice but to use the ring.”

They conversed as they walked side by side towards the exit.

“…So, are you satisfied with your revenge?”

“It’s over with that. I have no intention of dwelling on the past anymore. Besides, there’s no satisfaction in beating someone who cries.”

“Haha, that’s their representative for you. I lost the will to punch anymore. I won, too, so it feels good. Plus, one punch was enough to feel refreshed.”

“We’re too fulfilled in the present to care about something like revenge. It’s all thanks to the young ones. If they weren’t here, we’d have destroyed the entire country.”

“Yeah. But it doesn’t seem like it’ll be that simple for the others.”

As they passed through the exit, they crossed paths with the North and South representatives waiting in the long corridor for the next match. Their eyes met for a moment.

Garga and Horus had serene expressions on their faces.

“Next, please!”

The referee called out.

The representatives from the North and South looked at each other and spoke.

“I… I’ll withdraw.”

“Same here, I guess.”

“What!? They withdrew!?”

It seemed that the representatives from the North and South had lost their will to fight after watching Garga and Horus’ match.

“If this continues, it’ll be a final match between two dropouts… The tournament is canceled, canceled! Ah, postponed until tomorrow! We’ll redo everything!”

Shortly after, an announcement was made that the tournament was canceled, but strangely, no one booed.

By the time the match ended, it was already evening.

“Our business is done; shall we go home?”

The tournament was canceled, and they had no intention of participating again. In other words, they had fulfilled Yuyu’s request to stop her engagement by participating in the tournament.

“If anything happens, you can contact me with this.”

He handed Yuyu an earring that matched the one he was wearing.

“It’s something I made called a ‘Denwa.’ Concentrating on it, you can talk to someone far away.”

“I see. So if I focus, it will connect me to you, Crow.”

“Exactly.”

Just as they were about to ride on Garga and Horus, who had transformed into their Beast Trans forms, rapid footsteps approached them.

“Garga!”

“Horus!”

Voices were calling out to each of them.

Garga and Horus revert to their original forms.

First, let’s look at Garga’s side.

“Garga… you’re amazing, man.”

“Hey, why don’t you come back to the tribe—”

“Shut up, you idiot!!”

Ah, the classic scene from another world story, where they say, “I’ll take you back now,” but he doesn’t let them finish.

He’s irritated.

He’s going around smacking the heads of the beastmen who approached him.

Next, let’s look at Horus.

That woman is his ex-girlfriend.

“Horus… I’m sorry…”

“…”

“You’ve become so strong, it’s surprising. Listen, I wasn’t serious with Delga… That’s right! He deceived me! So it’s not my fault!”

“…So, what exactly are you trying to say?”

“That’s why I want to get back together with you. We can make it work now.”

“With you, who betrayed me?”

“So that’s it… fine, fine, I’m the bad one, right? I’m sorry, I’m sorry. Are you satisfied now?”

What’s this? Getting defensive? Does she think she’ll be forgiven with that kind of apology?

Go ahead and say it, Horus. You—

Then Horus bows his head,

“I’m sorry, but everything about you, including your personality, is too much for me.”

“…Huh?”

This is an unexpected remark from Horus, who is usually serious and upright. He rejected the idea of reconciling with his ex-girlfriend, almost as if mocking her.

Just when I thought he would give her a piece of his mind, this unexpected turn of events happened. This is… I shouldn’t laugh, but… pfft…

“Pfft! Ahahaha!!”

I couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

I get a glare from the ex-girlfriend.

“This doesn’t mean I’ve forgiven you guys!!”

The king, who even pointed his finger at people, appeared.

He’s a man with a low boiling point. He probably still thinks he’s a king. Oh, wait, he is a king.

I have nothing to say to the king, so I’ll ignore him.

We head home while receiving jeers from behind. Suddenly, Horus and Garga stop.

“There’s just one thing I want to say to this crappy hometown. It’s good to leave the country and learn new strengths.”

“And… if you’re strong now and flaunting it, why not overthrow them? If you have time, do it.”

With that, they moved on.

A few seconds later.

“Starting tomorrow, I’m leaving the country for warrior training!”

“That damn chief has exploited me for so long! I’ll get back at him!”

“Overthrow them all!!”

“Hey, wait, you guys!!”

The atmosphere behind us is getting lively.

We returned home, laughing.

A week later, a letter arrived from Yuyu.

First, words of gratitude.

Then, what happened in the Beastman country?

The tournament to decide her fiancé remained canceled. No one wants to compete after witnessing the overwhelming match between Garga and Horus.

They probably want a match surpassing that, including overthrowing the strong. It’s good that their high pride worked in a positive direction.

While organizing documents, I suddenly realized something.

“Wait, where’s Lulu?”

I haven’t seen her since this morning.

Everyone tilts their heads in response to my question.

“Your guild is interesting. Hehe.”

◇

At the pancake shop.

With a cheerful expression, Ceris looks at Lulu, who watches her cautiously.

Despite the pancakes having arrived, there’s no sign of anyone starting to eat.

“You called only me here, so there must be something you can’t tell everyone. Stop beating around the bush and say it.”

“Well, don’t rush me. If you wish, I’ll get straight to the point.”

Ceris gazes at Lulu.

“—Would you give Crow back to me?”
