The important meeting I attended in the King's luxurious tent ended with a crucial decision that had to be made immediately. Together with Doctor Portia and a newly elected general who had replaced General Keno, we would set out to find the pile of bandit corpses hidden deep in the forest.

A pile of corpses that accidentally bears witness to the cruelty of modern weapons that know no friend or foe.

Right after the meeting ended, I silently watched the King's expression, shocked and exhausted by his own daughter's words. Elaina's statement that she wanted to get pregnant without being engaged or married had undoubtedly left the King dizzy with her behavior.

Therefore, I immediately left the King's luxurious tent, want to prepare the combat equipment I would bring with me, like Hoshino and HK-416 ammunition.

For that reason, I also had to prepare food and other necessities for this small military expedition.

Tap...

Tap...

The day had turned into a warm morning filled with busy activity. From a long distance, I could see a parked Humvee and Chitose, who touching the long barrel of a GECAL 50, like a curious cat.

Meanwhile, my stepfamily was enjoying breakfast prepared by Melissa as a maid who had sworn allegiance to me, I felt grateful for her unwavering loyalty. Without Melissa's help, I would have struggled to protect my stepfamily.

Moreover, I can utilize Melissa's abilities as the protector, taking care of innocent stepfamily.

For the time being, I can't always look after them because I'm busy trying to survive too.

This made me wonder.

Why did I possess the body of this NPC named Hans?

Besides being an NPC who will die in the main plot and is unable to utilize his Gunsmith ability properly after the monster's poison damaged his magic core, he is just an NPC who is ready to die without following the main storyline of this eroge world.

The reason for my transmigration by possessing Hans' body is still unanswered.

I do feel happy when I enter the world of this eroge game I love, but surviving in this level of reality is difficult. I wish, I could possess this NPC by choosing the easy difficulty.

As far as I can tell, sudden transmigration or reincarnation can't choose the difficulty level. So it's only natural that I will always suffer to trying alive, as long as I live in this eroge world, and having sex with women, it's just a bonus that I can enjoy while I can survive.

Tap...

Tap...

"The food smells delicious, Mell," I said, complimenting Melissa, who was busy cooking dessert.

"Ah!! Welcome back, Master Hans!" Melissa greeted me and smiled gently.

"Nothing bad happened while I was gone, right?"

"There was no such big incident, Master Hans. Everything is safe and under control... Oh! I just remembered one thing, there was an invitation letter addressed to former nobles to use a escorted horse-drawn carriage along with the King's horse-drawn carriage," said Melissa while cooking dessert.

Suddenly, Melissa loosened the buttons of her maid uniform and pull out something inside the cleavage of her large breasts.

My eyes fell on Melissa's cleavage and saw her black lace bra.

Booiinngg...

Booiinngg...

Melissa's hand groped her cleavage and took out a luxurious-looking letter.

"Here is the invitation letter, Master Hans," said Melissa while handing over the invitation letter with an elegant maid's style.

I received the invitation letter and saw the royal family crest of the Kingdom of Belfast that always appeared in the main storyline. None other than that, it is the royal family of Belfast that is the root source of political problems in the Kingdom of Belfast itself.

Even though I wouldn't be dragged into the political issues as an NPC and a fallen noble, the annoyance still lingered in my feelings.

The invitation letter I received from Melissa felt wet and filled with the sweet scent of her.

"Is there a problem with the invitation letter, Master Hans?" Melissa asked, seemingly curious about my silence after receiving her letter.

"There's no problem, Mell. I just feel like this invitation letter will be useless after my Gunsmith skills have created an iron carriage that is much stronger than the carriages used by the nobles," I replied while tearing the wax seal and reading the contents of the invitation letter addressed to my family.

As soon as I read the first line, I immediately realized that this was a letter written by Elaina.

"What are you planning, Elaina?" I muttered softly and read the invitation letter to the end.

As far as I read and understand, it was an invitation to use a horse-drawn carriage closely escorted by royal knights.

"Elaina..." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"You must have written this letter before that useless, important meeting started."

"Should I answer this invitation letter?" I said hesitantly, glancing at Melissa, who had finished cooking dessert.

Just after the dessert was finished being cooked by Melissa, a strong gust of wind blew past me.

I could vaguely see the wet panties of a girl I rarely spoke to. Cute, wet panties, as if they hadn't been changed in days.

Swooossshhh...

To be frank, it was Chitose panties.

"There's no need to rush to get dessert, Chitose," I said to Chitose, who had used her ability to get the dessert dish, stolen from Melissa hand.

"I'm already full after attending that unimportant meeting, so there no need to be... rush like that," I continued, glancing behind me, seeing Chitose eating her dessert quickly.

"Master Hans, have you had breakfast yet?" Melissa asked as she took a wooden plate and placed the dessert on it in a lavish manner.

"Yes, I've had breakfast and will be going soon to check on something we've done. Can I leave my stepmother and stepsister in your care, Mell?"

"Leave that task to me, Master Hans!" replied Melissa with her eyes full of enthusiasm.

"Nice answer. But, aren't you curious about what I'm going to do, Mell?"

"I'm not too curious, because I already know the reason. Moreover, Doctor Portia is walking here... it must be related to the coup attempt carried out by the previous General, right?" Melissa replied with a gentle glance that looked behind me.

I also turned my gaze to look behind me.

Right behind me, Doctor Portia and a new General wearing thick iron armor walked over. Without wasting any time, Doctor Portia and the new General prepared to carry out the task the King had ordered. Doctor Portia come with wearing a small backpack containing bottles of potions and the new General with a variety of weapons that he could carry on his back.

"Just by looking at them, it's clear that Master Hans will be carrying out an important task, and it's related to the recent incident."

"Please come back safely, Master Hans."

"I'm still not satisfied with getting love and doing my passionate night service to make you happy," Melissa said with a lewd smile on her face.

"I will make sure to return safely." With a lewd smile on Melissa's face, I had no choice but to return safely.

The only thing I had to do this time was to make sure the pile of bandit corpses was in one place, slowly decomposing. Since their bodies were located behind overgrown bushes and a little deep from the main forest path, I hoped the bandits' bodies would still be found.

With the forest being filled with trees and wild carnivorous animals, I hope they don't become a food source and eaten by wild animals.

Well, that might be the case as long as the forest food chain remains intact. For carnivorous wildlife, the pile of bandit corpses would provide a sufficient food source for several months.

Ctaaakkk...

I quickly checked the number of rounds in the HK-416's still-full magazine in my hand, considering the possibility of encountering a carnivorous wild animal. Encountering a predator at the top of the forest's food chain would be a bit of a hassle.

"I think... this is more than enough as long as my shot penetrate the head," I muttered under my breath and walked towards the Humvee.

Tap...

Tap...

As I walked towards the Humvee parked in front of me, I felt a strong gust of wind coming from Chitose, who had somehow found herself on the roof of the Humvee.

"..." I tried to ignore Chitose's behavior of wanting to go with me, without talking to me.

If only she could speak one word to me, it would help me to understand her, who will be a Heroine in the main story of the male protagonist of this world.

But for now, I have to accept her cold attitude and rarely talk to me.

I don't want any misunderstandings between me and Chitose, where she will be a scary figure as a Heroine who is able to maximize her DPS attacks. With the three sword collections she currently carries, the best option right now is not to make an enemy of her, but to establish a good relationship with her.

Krraanngg!!

My hand immediately opened the Humvee driver's door and got inside, starting the Humvee engine, which was vibrating violently in the morning, as if the sleeping machine was waking up to go on duty.

Brrruuummm...

Brrruuummm...

From inside the Humvee, I could see my stepmother and stepsister waving their hands as if seeing me off.

Krraanngg!!

Doctor Portia opened the door of the Humvee next to me.

I don't know who taught Chitose, but she was already able to open the hatch on the roof of the Humvee.

The General climb into the rear door of the Humvee with difficulty due to its thick armor, "Uh, woow... So, this is a rumored a mystical horse-carriage thick of steel."
