Arifureta Shokugyou de Sekai Saikyou (WN) Chapter 193

Arifureta After – Nagumo Family’s Bride Riot

The after story is written as the author pleases (the main story was also haphazard though), so the chronological order is also all over the place. Perhaps it’s hard to read, but please treat it well.

「I wonder……what to do about the marriage ceremony?」

In the living room that was illuminated by the bright sunlight, Sumire, who was drooping limply on the sofa, whispered to herself.

This day was a holiday for the society. However, Sumire was a famous manga artist from the beginning and didn’t have a holiday. In order to sail across the time of judgment with the name of the deadline that was approaching her today too, she cla.s.s changed into a zombie and headed to her workplace, but……in the end, Sumire, who ran out of material, couldn’t advance, and instead of sulking in bed she was sulking in her house acting sluggishly.

At present, Hajime and Shuu weren’t at home, only the female camp of Yue and the others were home. What was unusual was that despite Hajime going out he left behind Yue and the others.

Hajime and Shuu were going to a meeting regarding the new game that was being created by Shuu’s company, but putting aside Hajime, who was recognized as an important battle strength even while he was still a student, for Yue and the others who only had meager knowledge about games, they couldn’t partic.i.p.ate in the meeting just with the reason of wanting to be together with their lover, that was the surface reason.

In addition, today Myuu was also going out. It appeared she was taking along her friends(underlings) in the kindergarten to make clear of their position with the kindergarteners from the neighboring town. When Myuu got out of the house entrance, Myuu said「Today is the decisive battle nano. Myuu will teach those pretentious kids, just where their place in society is nano」with a fearless smile; just who she was taking after……such a question didn’t even need to be asked.

Because of that, Kaori and Shizuku were also invited into the house, and they spent a laid back holiday with only the females but……

That silent explosive which Sumire threw brought about a ripple that by no means was small among the females. Above their head, there was the “!?” mark floating like a certain soldier, who loved using cardboard boxes, when he was discovered by an enemy soldier, and they turned their gaze to Sumire with a momentum that seemed to give off the sound *bat-*. It was only Yue who was drinking black tea while directing a gaze at Sumire as though she was looking at a somewhat good-for-nothing person.

「E, err, Kaa-sama? What do you mean by just now?」

Shia represented everyone and asked the true meaning of Sumire’s whisper. In response to that, Sumire sluggishly raised her face that was buried on the sofa and opened her mouth with a really uneasy expression.

「There is no deeper meaning to it, Shia-chan. Sooner or later, we intend to hold a grand wedding ceremony of Hajime with Shia-chan and the others, but as expected, it’s impossible for all of you to do it, right? See, in this j.a.pan, a country with a const.i.tutional government, polygamy is prohibited by law.」

「Ce, certainly……」

Shia nodded up and down. Kaori and Shizuku went「Hm?」and tilted their head, they were about to open their mouths to say something, but Sumire’s words continued to forestall them.

「Everyone’s parents should absolutely want to see their daughter in a wedding dress too. But, how sad, based on the law of j.a.pan, there can only be one bride in the wedding ceremony……that is to say, there is only one person among you that can wear a wedding dress!」

*zugaaan!* While lighting was roaring behind her back, Sumire loudly yelled the shocking truth(?). Shia and Tio, and also Kaori and the rest made a face that seemed to say「What did you say――!!」. Shizuku was about to make a retort at what Sumire pointed out but……

「Shizuku-chan……don’t you want to wear a wedding dress?」

「Wh? N, no, Sumire-san. That is, that, of course, I want to wear it, but……」

Sumire firmly grasped Shizuku’s shoulder and asked that question to her while peering at her face from really close. After hearing that question, Shizuku’s body leaned back from the pressure and expressed her honest feeling. As though taking advantage of that opening, Sumire’s verbal attack was not stopping!

「Shizuku-chan. Also, Remia-chan who is acting ‘my my ufufu’ over there, and also Yue-chan who for some reason is staring at me with a lukewarm gaze as though I am a good-for-nothing person. Everyone too also wants to wear a wedding dress, don’t you? You want to walk along with Hajime on the wedding aisle wrapped in the ceremonial dress, don’t you?」

「That……yes.」

「……Nn. Of course, Okaa-sama.」

「I also feel the same here, Okaa-san.」

Sumire nodded with ‘yep yep’, however, immediately after, she looked up above with a gesture that was excessively dramatic.

「Isn’t that right. But, only one person can do that. And then, about the marriage registration, that is the notification for the sake of being seen by the people outside as Hajime’s wife, it’s also only one person who can have that……in this j.a.pan, only one person can be formally recognized as Hajime’s wife.」

After saying that Sumire ran her gaze over Yue and the others with a sad expression. And then, Shia and the others, when they heard the words「There is only one person among these people here who will be Hajime’s formal wife」they sent each other gazes containing slight nervousness at each other. Amidst such an atmosphere, Sumire released those words that would push the Nagumo family down into chaos on this day.

「Now, I wonder, who among these women is truly worthy to be Hajime’s wife? I wonder, as his mother, who should I choose? Hey, all of you, Hajime’s “self-proclaimed” wives?」

「「「「!?」」」」

Shock ran through the body of Shia and the others!

Self-proclaimed――that word deeply, truly deeply, pierced their chest. Indeed, they hadn’t submitted any marriage registration or even held the ceremony. No matter how much they insisted that they were husband and wife when seen from the eye of the society, there was no proof of that. The word “self-proclaimed”, for some unknown reason, caused a violent discomfort to well up to the point that they couldn’t negate it!

「Ka, Kaa-sama-! What, what should I do desu!?」

「Ah, Shia, that’s unfair! Okaa-san! I will do my best for Hajime-kun’s sake! That’s why!」

「E, ee, me too, I’ll do my best so……」

「Hmmm, I too, perhaps it wouldth be soon the time to show mine seriousness.」

Shia, Kaori, Shizuku, and Tio, who got all fl.u.s.tered and shook up, gathered around their mother-in-law and begged for her teachings. Even Yue and Remia, who had somehow guessed Sumire’s ulterior motive, only slightly exchanged glances and troubled smiles before closing in on Sumire’s side.

Sumire was smiling complacently inside her heart looking at her obedient(?) daughters-in-law. However, she didn’t show even a speck of the inside of her heart, and then with a force that seemed to make a sound *zubishi-* she thrust up her finger. And then, she proclaimed.

「Yue-chan, Shia-chan, Tio-chan, Kaori-chan, Remia-chan, Shizuku-chan! Do all of you want to wear a wedding costume at Hajime-sideee――!」

Naturally, the wives replied back「Oo~~~」in high spirits.

「Do you waaant, to be seen as Hajime’s wife by the neighbooors――!!」

Naturally, the wives replied back「Gung ho, gung ho, gung ho!!」in high spirits.

「Do you waaant~, to have your name written in the marriage registratiooon―――!!」

Naturally, the wives replied back「Uu~raaraaraaraa―――」in high spirits.

The trivial things already didn’t matter.

After that, with Sumire’s incitement, Yue and the others progressed the preparation for the sake of「The deciding match of who is the most worthy as the wife in the Nagumo Family!」.

In the evening, Hajime and Shuu finished their work and went home. They were pa.s.sing through the house entrance while talking about this and that regarding the meeting today about the new game production, and they put their hand on the entryway’s door. And then,

「I’m home~」

「We’re back~」

They said the returning home greeting while opening the door……

「……Nn. Welcome home, dear, Otou-sama.」

「Welcome home desu!」

They were welcomed, by Yue and Shia who were only wearing frilly pure white small ap.r.o.ns. Shuu spoke「O, oo!?」from the side, but in the next instant, 「pugeh」a scream was raised, and he crumbled down. The swift inescapable attack from his son sent his consciousness flying.

「What are, you doing, Yue, Shia.」

Those figures of pure white, tight, beautiful legs and slender arms and shoulders, and then, the b.r.e.a.s.t.s that were bared by more than half, which was too lascivious, caused Hajime’s cheeks to cramp up while asking.

「……Of course, toward the husband who has just worked hard and returned home――」

「The wife welcomes him with her all desuu.」

「With a naked ap.r.o.n?」

「「With a naked ap.r.o.n.」」

Yue and Shia twirled on the spot. Their naked back and jiggling b.u.t.ts were shown to Hajime.

「You aren’t happy?」

「Is this a failure desu?」

Yue and Shia tilted their heads while confirming to Hajime. Naturally, Hajime bowed his head saying「Thank you very much」. It was the sad nature of man. Seeing such a Hajime, Yue and Shia asked him something strange「From 1 to 10, what is our score?」. Even while feeling suspicious, Hajime answered「Full score」without hesitation.

Yue and Shia took a guts pose「Yosh-」, then they took off Hajime’s coat and baggage before vanishing inside the room with their lovely b.u.t.ts exposed to him throughout.

「What is going on……」

While feeling as though he was watching a waking dream, Hajime shouldered his fainted father and opened the door to the living room.

There, this time it was,

「You guys too!?」

「uu, we, welcome, home, Hajime-kun.」

「We, we, welco――impossibleee, as expected I cannot endure this!!」

「My my, fufu. Welcome home, dear.」

「Yes, welcome home, Goshujin-sama.」

Kaori and Shizuku, also Remia and Tio were wearing naked ap.r.o.ns as expected while welcoming him home with a bow with their three fingers of each hand pressing on the floor. Hajime’s spontaneous retort caused Shizuku’s face to turn bright red from shame while she was rushing out of the room. However, it didn’t change the fact that she was wearing a naked ap.r.o.n, so it went without saying that her captivating jiggling b.u.t.t was exposed to him.

「Uu, what, suddenly an impact hit my jaw……hah!? What is this place, is this Shangri-la abeshih-」

Shuu, who Hajime had discarded on the sofa, appeared to be opening his eyes, but as expected he received a swift, unavoidable attack that made him collapse with the white of his eyes exposed.

While glancing at Shuu, as expected a question of「The score?」from the wives came at him. Hajime livelily told「2 points」only to Tio before he said to Kaori and Remia「Full points」. Ignoring Tio who twitched before starting to pant, Kaori and Remia made a guts pose, and as expected they disappeared into the kitchen with their b.u.t.ts exposed to him.

「So, Kaa-san. What are you making them do this time?」

Hajime was sighing while asking Sumire, who was grinning broadly while making a cool pose for some reason in the corner of the room.

「My, what’s with that? You make me sound like I am a problem child. I am merely accompanying everyone in their homemaking training, you know?」

「This is the first time I heard that a naked ap.r.o.n is bride training.」

「Welcoming the husband home is also one of the creditable bride training. You see, Yue-chan and the others, right now they are competing with each other, you know? About who is the worthiest as the bride of the Nagumo family. As their husband, you have to watch them properly. The conclusion won’t be reached if everyone gets full points, so you have to grade properly! Okay!?」

「……」

Hajime was sending the most reproachful gaze he could make to Sumire. Before, the girls had done training for housework, laundry, and cooking as bride training. And now they were competing with each other after this late with abnormal ways like naked ap.r.o.ns; no matter how he thought about it this must be a prank. And the mastermind of this prank could only be one person in this place.

Hajime was about to question Sumire further, but at that time, Yue approached him with small steps. Her clothing was still the same.

「……Hajime, the preparation for dinner and a bath is finished.」

「O, ou, I see.」

「……Nn. So……」

Yue tightly clutched the fringe of her ap.r.o.n while fidgeting. If she did something like that, then the ap.r.o.n that had already been in a risky length from the beginning would be further rolled up and become something dangerous. Naturally, Hajime’s gaze was pulled to that territory like a monster who was being sucked into the mouth of a thunder dragon.

Toward such a Hajime, Yue mouthed that template speech.

「……Will you not take a bath, and do me? Or will you not take the dinner, and do me? Or else, will you do me, or do me?」

「……In the end, there is no option for me though……」

It was off by a bit from the template! As expected of Yue quality, but the matchless vampire princess wasn’t finished with just this level!

「Then, will you take a bath while doing me? Or else, will you have dinner while doing me?」

「What does that mean!?」

「……As expected, it will be embarra.s.sing, doing it in front of Otou-sama and Okaa-sama. But, if Hajime wishes for it.」

「I don’t wish that! There is a limit even at being abnormal!」

「Myy, Hajime you! This pervert son!」

「Kaa-san, shut up a bit there!」

Hajime’s retort gushed out. On this occasion, he left alone Yue who was blushing while fidgeting with both her hands on her cheeks. For the time being, he should make her wear some clothes and recover the order in the Nagumo household. Hajime was about to act with that objective.

But, before he could do that,

「I, I cannot let, only Yue take the spotlight! Ha, Hajime-kun!」

「Ka, Kaori?」

Still in her naked ap.r.o.n, Kaori, who peeked out from the cover of the kitchen, leaped out as though she had been waiting for her turn. While she was fidgeting pigeon-toed looking embarra.s.sed, she yelled with an expression that was filled with resolve.

「Won’t you eat me as dinner!?」

「What are you saying!?」

「What seasoning do you wanttt!?」

「Calm down-, what you are saying is just too lacking in common sense!」

「Myy, Hajime you! This Mr. gourmet master-」

「I’m going to throw you out of the house, Kaa-san!」

After that, Shia and the others similarly leapt out after that and were saying similar things which Hajime retorted back at severely. Sumire, who watched that, stirred up the place. Shuu, who recovered his consciousness with a ‘hah’, was made to sleep with a swift unavoidable attack, and in the end, it was one hour later before they could have dinner normally.

By the way, as expected everyone was wearing clothes when eating dinner. For some reason, everyone was wearing risqué cosplay appearances though……

In the middle of dinner, a young delivery service man was making a delivery, but he was startled by the blonde miniskirt police woman that came out from the house. He stepped back after seeing the miniskirt nurse that came out from behind the police woman saying「You forget the stamp heree」. Next, he sweated coldly due to the miniskirt shrine maiden that came in a panic saying「What are you two doing going out with that appearance!」. In the end, the young man expressed his grat.i.tude「Tank ou hery much-―――」that was filled with various meanings with a red face and also panic.

At any rate, the cooking showdown had everyone make one dish; which then got judged by Hajime, and it went mostly peacefully.

「Haa」

「Nmyu? What’s the matter papa?」

In the bath, Hajime was washing the hair of Myuu who came home just before the dinner while unintentionally making a tired sigh. Myuu was tilting her head that was covered all over with bubbles.

「Myuu……grow up into a normal girl for me okay.」

「??」

「No, it doesn’t matter. Just forget it.」

Looking at his beloved daughter that was tilting her head in incomprehension, Hajime was smiling wryly thinking ‘just what am I saying’ before rinsing off the bubbles on Myuu’s hair.

But, at that time, Hajime’s senses detected the presence of several people approaching the bathroom!

「Wait, Kaori and also Shizuku, those two haven’t gone home yet?」

Before Hajime entered the bath, he had told the two of them that they should go back home soon. But regardless of that, Hajime could sense the presence of Kaori and Shizuku among the presences that were approaching; it made Hajime be at his wits’ end. Immediately after, the door of the bathroom was opened loudly. Just as he expected, there were the stark naked figures of Yue and the others boldly standing imperiously! Not even a single string was covering their bodies; it was to the degree that Hajime wanted to tell them to at least use a towel to cover their front. (For the moment, it was only Shizuku who was using a towel to hide her body.)

「……Nn. Now-」

「Charge desuu!」

「I won’t lose! The one who is the most skilled at washing Hajime-kun’s body is meee!」

「Ufufu, today is the day I’m washing the front.」

「Haa haa, Goshujin-sama, haa haa」

「……Pardon me.」

It appeared this was a compet.i.tion about who could wash the body of the husband the best. Hajime’s eyes were twitching while he quickly headed to the bathtub and urged Myuu to follow. It was as though he was asking her if she could accompany him.

But,

「I won’t let you!」

Along with those words, *whoosh* Yue instantly appeared before Hajime’s eyes.

「Wai-, don’t use “Heaven Existence” in this kind of place!」

「Level X–」

「Maximum body reinforcement!? Ah, idiot, let go, this pervert rabbit!」

「Even me-, Limit Break-」

「What kind of limit are you planning to break, huh!?」

Hajime was completely surrounded by the vampire princess, the bug rabbit, and the angel mode maiden! Using that opening, Remia secured Myuu while Tio used wind magic to form a barrier and shut out the voices from leaking outside by laying out a veil of air.

Like that, in the next moment, the bathroom was turned into a battlefield. A battlefield of carnivorous maidens.

「Kuh, who can stay in this kind of place where there are only beasts! I’m going back to my room!」

While holding up a strange flag, Hajime slapped Tio severely to the point that it made her pant while he attempted to rush out of the bathroom. There Yue teleported, and Kaori activated her G.o.d Speed and leapt at his back while Shia clung on to his waist with her greatest body reinforcement. Because of his wet feet and the polished floor, Hajime slipped and fell down.

There Yue and the others jumped further at that chance; even the revived Tio also got on top of Hajime.

At the corridor of the Nagumo household, there was the figure of Hajime who was lying upside down while being covered with beautiful women and girls.

At the same time,

There was the figure of Sumire, cackling loudly while rolling on the corridor holding her stomach from seeing that situation.

Somewhere, *snap* the sound of something snapping resounded.

Right after that, Yue and the others raised「Aahn」coquettish voice. Their weak spot was fondled by Hajime. Strength reflexively left their bodies~, using that opening Hajime stood up. Kaori was saying something foolish「Hau, Hajime-kun’s Hajime-kun is in front of my eyes」, but he ignored that.

「Kaa-san, it seems that a family meeting is necessary between us. Also, it has to be an extraordinarily harsh meeting.」

「My, Hajime. I don’t think that such meeting is necessary though?」

「No, it’s necessary. ……The meeting for the sake of making Kaa-san reflect on yourself!」

Hajime’s store of patience had run out from his mother’s prank that was too much. He took a step forward. He intended to wrap his mother in a bamboo mat then hang her up for a night so she could reflect a little.

But, it seemed that Sumire had already predicted that action of Hajime’s. While saying「I’ve thought that this will happen!」with a triumphant look, she took out a vacuum cleaner that was leaning in the shadow of the corridor.

――Cleaning Artifact “Sniper Mark II”

By any chance, do you have the experience of sucking even the thing that must not be sucked carelessly when cleaning using a vacuum cleaner? It can become a cause that broke the vacuum, but opening the lid to fish it out every single time is troublesome, isn’t it? In that kind of time, use this. The next generation vacuum cleaner “Sniper Mark II”.

If you have this, you can select the target that you want to suck and the target that you don’t want to suck! Furthermore! If you put this to practical use, it’s even possible to suck the soy sauce or the remote control that is far away into your hand, just with a single push of a b.u.t.ton! The next generation vacuum cleaner is already not limited for just cleaning in its utility!

The absorption force will never fall. The era from here on is the era of multiple absorption forces that suck only the prey you aimed for!

The vacuum cleaner (exclusive for the Nagumo household) that Hajime developed with such a catchphrase was held in Sumire’s hand.

In front of the suspicious eyes of Hajime, Sumire took out the degraded version Crystal Key from her breast pocket. It was handed over to her so in the case that something happened to his parents because of the matter of Hajime and the others, they could immediately teleport away.

Before Hajime could say「What are you」, Sumire stabbed the degraded crystal key to the front. Immediately the s.p.a.ce distorted, and a gate materialized. At the same time, Sumire pushed the max mode b.u.t.ton on the vacuum cleaner. Naturally, the powerful absorption force pulled on the target from inside the gate.

「Wha, wha, what!? What is going on!? Nooo――, I’m being pulleeeeeeed-」

Like that, a familiar scream could be heard, then from the other side of the gate, a pet.i.te female figure in a suit tumbled out. Sumire turned off the switch at the same time when that figure came out, but following the law of inertia, the female that leaped out from the gate rolled into the corridor of the Nagumo house, the figure finally stopped when her face crashed *munyu!* on the obstacle in front of her.

「……」

「……」

The female that rolled out from the gate and plunged into a certain thing with her face――Hatayama Aiko-sensei, wordlessly, slowly, pulled her face away from that place where her face was buried into. And then, looking at that thing dangling in front of her eyes that seemed to be familiar, she tilted her head while saying……

「Hajime-kun?」

「Aiko, can you spare me from you calling my name while looking at my crotch?」

「Hah!? Awawawawawa, I, I’m sorry~」

Yes, the rolling out Aiko, due to the momentum, her face landed on the son of Hajime that was currently standing imposingly stark naked.

Aiko instantly blushed hard while her mind was in chaos thinking ‘I don’t understand the situation!’. Looking from her suited figure, perhaps she had work regardless of the holiday and she only just came home. Despite so, she was suddenly made to teleport, and on top of that she dived face first into the crotch of her lover that was hidden from society except to some people……it was only natural for her to be astonished.

「Yo, you are wanting me and are using this kind of forceful method!?」, or「No, it’s not like I hate it but……waiting naked like this is a bit……」, or「Pe, perhaps I cannot go home tonight……」, it also couldn’t be helped if she was talking to herself like that, perhaps.

Anyway, after Hajime wrapped a towel on his waist, he ran his gaze around once more, but Sumire’s figure had already disappeared; he could only see the door of the entrance that was closing and a piece of paper fluttering midair. It seemed her plan was to make Aiko a distraction while she escaped. It was a splendid escape.

Hajime picked up the memo paper that fell at his feet, and his gaze fell on it. There,

『I received enough material. Thank you, very much. Mama is going back to her work now!』

Such a thing was written.

「Haa, I thought it was something like this……Yue, you noticed it already, right?」

Hajime was sighing to his mother’s deed while questioning Yue who was standing at his side unnoticed. In response, Yue nodded. Hearing that, Shia who had similarly recovered tilted her head and asked what Hajime meant.

「Look here, whether the wedding ceremony will be done one by one, or with everyone all at once, either is fine, but there is no rule that only one person can do it. Besides, if need be, we can also just do the ceremony at Tortus.」

「Aa~, now that Hajime-san mentions it that’s true isn’t it.」

「Besides, even the marriage registration, I have already faked the official papers about you all itself, so fussing about the marriage registration for everyone right now is meaningless, isn’t it? Something like the consistency of the data or whatever, it can be taken care of later as we please.」

「Now that you mention it, that’s true. Then, why did Okaa-san do something like a Bride deciding battle……」

「That’s obviously for her material collection. Just why do you think she was slacking off in the house this afternoon?」

In short, Sumire said whatever sounded appropriate to incite Shia and the others, and then the uproar that was caused due to that would be turned into the material for her manga that currently was reaching the limits. That was Sumire’s scheme.

Shia and the others thought that it was also their own fault that they got caught into the provocation thoroughly like that, but Sumire’s capability of letting out a flowing speech just by adlibbing like an agitator, it was just as expected from the mother of Hajime.

And then, Yue who noticed the intention of such Sumire still partic.i.p.ated without really objecting was because,

「Today too was a fun day.」

「I see.」

That seemed to be the reason. For Yue, this kind of stupid uproar was also included in her lovely ordinary days. Something like boorish fair arguments could be tossed into the trash can. The satisfied expression of Yue made Hajime shrug「Well, then, it’s fine」.

「Say~, I really don’t understand what you are all taking about though……」

Aiko called timidly at Hajime and the others that were feeling warm and fluffy by themselves. Hajime glanced at Aiko and,

「My body got completely cold now……let’s enter the bath again. With everyone this time.」

Saying that Hajime picked up Aiko in a princess carry. 「Eh? Eh?」Giving a glance at Aiko who was in confusion, Yue and the others raised an「Oo~」in harmony and returned to the large bathroom of the reconstructed Nagumo house.

After that, including Aiko who was stripped by Hajime’s hand, Hajime and the wives relaxed and enjoyed the bath without particularly any compet.i.tion.

……There was no one who paid any attention to Shuu who was still pa.s.sed out in the living room.

AN: Thank you very much for reading this every time.

Thank you very much too for the thoughts, opinions, and reports about misspelling and omitted words.
