The Case In Which Streaming In Another World Led To The Creation Of A Massive Yandere Following - 139: Haishin from Now On

Chapter 139: Haishin from Now On

“Isn’t he utterly filthy?”

“Why on earth would someone like him be invited? Frankly, neither he nor that engineer from the Principality have any refinement whatsoever.”

Wait, what about Mira who’s gobbling up food like there’s no tomorrow?

Kanata wanted to raise that question, but he’s more concerned about Anise and Fest’s reactions, which are making him quite anxious.

(These two… It’s pretty clear they’re angry. I’m somewhat glad about that, but to be honest, whatever they say doesn’t really affect me… But then again, admitting that would be disrespectful to them, who are getting angry on my behalf.)

However, Kanata has no intention of causing a scene.

True, besides these two, there are others who look down on not just Kanata, but also Cid. Yet, this is very much a minority.

At least in Cid’s case, Athena is by his side, so no one dares to mess with him.

After all, it’s said that Kanata got dazzled by the food and ended up alone, but even then, it’s bold of this duo to act this way when Anise and Fest are around.

“The Gravatt family would agree, wouldn’t you?”

“Of course. Fest-sama and Anise-sama are the Empire’s strongest young talents. As the bearers of the new era, they should not be bothered by commoners like――”

“Let’s leave it at that.”

The one who spoke was Fest.

The two were surprised by Fest’s deep voice, but it was Anise who Fest was addressing.

“Ah…”

At that moment, Kanata noticed something: the area around the duo who had insulted him, and Cid, was soaked with water.

It was as if invisible ice had melted, making everything wet, and it was apparent from Anise’s actions that she had been deploying unseen ice… This made Kanata think calmly.

(Come to think about it, people in the Empire solve things by fighting…)

So, Anise likely wanted to show her power clearly, but Fest stopped her… probably because Kanata was there and they didn’t want to cause trouble during the celebration of the Haishin event.

“Stop it, Anise. Even if we don’t do anything, they would still face Her Majesty’s wrath, but now is the time to celebrate Haishin-sama’s contributions―we don’t have time to deal with those obsessed with their own status.”

“Right. Sorry, I got a bit carried away.”

The scary atmosphere quickly returned to normal.

The duo that insulted Kanata seemed irritated by Fest’s reasoning, their faces turning red with anger, but knowing they were outmatched, they quietly backed off.

“Really… If they were going to run away like that, they should’ve just kept quiet from the start.”

“It can’t be helped. I can’t really talk about them, but sometimes your hands move before your words.”

Still, it was good that they held back.

Even if Fest hadn’t stopped her, it’s thought that Anise would’ve just threatened them at most… Although it ended without incident, Kanata couldn’t help but feel grateful to the two.

“Thanks to both of you. I admit I lacked manners and couldn’t keep calm. The food was just too delicious.”

Kanata laughs, saying he just couldn’t help himself because it was too tasty.

“…Kanataa, you should eat more.”

“Eh? Yeah, I’m not full yet.”

“Fufu, I’ll bring you some more♪”

And so, the many dishes that were brought over were quickly finished by Kanata and Mira, who had somehow ended up beside him.

Despite a few potential mishaps, the rest of the time passed peacefully without incident.

“…Fumu, not bad at all. To be this satisfied with something other than fighting… And above all, everyone is smiling.”

The one who said this was the Prime Minister.

In this Empire, second only to Emperor Rosalynde in considering the nation’s future, the Prime Minister was touched by the change brought about by the new wind called Haishin and the smiles it brought to the people.

It’s true he didn’t understand at first why Rosalynde was so enthusiastic, but having experienced an offline event like this, he couldn’t deny understanding the appeal anymore.

“What’s the matter?”

“Well… The event has ended, but it feels like it’s truly over only when this feast ends.”

“Ah… That, it feels lonely, doesn’t it?”

“Lonely… Yes. I never thought I’d feel lonely in this way.”

The Prime Minister, along with his subordinates, watched the still noisy venue.

It was lonely without Haishin, but still, many people were smiling.

The Prime Minister thought to himself, this was truly… truly a good thing.

In a country accustomed to war and filled with hot-blooded people, it was deeply moving to see everyone wrapped in smiles through a single form of entertainment.

“But… won’t this make other countries pay even more attention? Seeing how our Empire has changed because of Haishin.”

“Right. Other countries will want more—after all, just having Haishin-dono around makes many countries and people take action.”

This was a concern.

If Haishin were to favor one country, more people would flock to it.

And if someone with ill intentions were at the top, they could use Haishin’s influence to stir the public and create unprecedented chaos.

“The thought of Haishin-dono harboring dark ambitions sends shivers down my spine. I’m glad he’s not like that.”

“Yeah, but it seems Haishin does have ambitions?”

“What?”

What’s that about? When asked, the subordinate said:

“I just happened to see it, but he said, ‘I’m gonna make it big!’ That’s a kind of ambition, right?”

“…Pfft, indeed it is.”

The Prime Minister couldn’t help but laugh at this adorable ambition.

Thus, the Haishin event truly came to an end, but as the Prime Minister said, the world would keep a close eye on Haishin.

When he moves, not just people, but money and goods move in massive amounts too.

It wouldn’t be surprising to think that if someone could control Haishin, there would be almost nothing they couldn’t do—what impact Haishin will have on the world from now on is something the whole world is watching.
