Capítulo 122: I can do it!
After comforting Naomi, who couldn't get comfort from her boyfriend, Isao went to Kyoko before he prepared for his mission to go to the dam. Even though it might take a while, he had prepared, and he was sure to lead everyone to a better future.
He had to return alive!
Isao thought that he was amazing for being able to say those words even though nothing could kill him except for a nuclear bomb in this world.
Or, rather, even a nuclear bomb might not be able to kill him.
The only way to kill him was to throw him out of space, he thought.
However, as he was ready to go out after he comforted Kyoko, he heard a commotion.
"DON'T CAUSE A TROUBLE ANYMORE! HOW LONG ARE YOU GOING TO BECOME A KID?! JUST LEAVE! I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU!"
Saya's loud voice echoed through the estate as she released all of her emotions.
Even those who knew nothing could tell that Saya was so furious at this moment.
Isao, who walked out, also saw this and understood why Saya was so angry.
Takashi Komuro.
Isao almost forgot about this guy, but then he remembered that the reason why Souichiro was bitten was because Souichiro tried to save Takashi.
Still, if someone thought that Saya's reaction was too exaggerated, then one would be wrong, especially if they learned that Takashi, Hirano, and Takezo were running away, causing all of those "things" to be able to enter the estate.
In other words, the three couldn't escape from the responsibility of killing Souichiro, especially when they were watching over the gate, yet in the end, they were running away, letting those "things" ravage the estate.
Isao knew all of that, and this also made him wonder how those three dared to show themselves in front of Saya, who was the daughter of Souichiro.
"What's happening to Saya?"
Isao turned and saw Yuriko was there too, seemingly attracted by Saya's voice.
"Shh..."
Isao gestured for her to keep quiet and said, "Let her release all of her emotions first."
"Okay." Yuriko nodded since she knew that Saya needed a place, a trash can, where she could release all of her bottled-up emotions. After all, unlike her, who could get the help of Isao, her daughter was different.
Nevertheless, due to their relationship, Yuriko became hesitant to send Isao to her daughter and made him her son-in-law.
However, with her age, she knew that she couldn't marry him, a young man who was about the same age as her daughter. Moreover, her husband had just passed away, so how could she do something such as marry Isao?
In other words, the only way for Isao to be with the Takagi family was to become a son-in-law!
Still, Yuriko followed Isao's words obediently and hid behind his back while pressing her body against his.
"...hey."
Even though Isao had calmed down after he comforted so many frightening women, if Yuriko asked for another comfort, he knew that he had to work even harder!
"Shh... let's be quiet," Yuriko said with a cute smile.
"..."
Could he even listen to their conversation when Yuriko whispered and blew hot air into his ear?
Yet, this was also one of the trials that Isao had to complete. At that moment, he was like Heracles, who was under the Labors of Heracles, facing the greatest challenge that he had ever faced in his life.
Still, if Muzan knew what Isao was thinking, even if he had fallen into the abyss, he would curse him!
However, whether Isao or Yuriko knew that Saya was harmless, she definitely wouldn't kill the group of three.
Still, whether it was Takashi, Hirano, Takezo, or Saya, they didn't know that they were being observed by Isao and Yuriko. Instead, whether it was Takashi, Hirano, or Takezo, they wished to meet those two since if they met those two, then they wouldn't be in this situation.
"I beg you, Takagi! Forgive me! I want to erase this regret and guilt! I will definitely be used! Let me be part of this expedition to the dam! I will show my worth!"
When Takashi thought about how Souichiro pushed him to protect himself before being bitten by Souichiro, he thought that he was a sinner, and because of that, he wanted to erase this sin of his by joining the dangerous expedition with everyone. He knew that he had failed before, and he even showed much embarrassment, but this time, it was different, and he believed that he would be okay, especially when he knew that Isao was there.
Hirano and Takezo also had a wish similar to Takashi's: They wished to be part of this expedition, become heroes, and erase their stigma.
At the same time, they also wanted the girls they loved to see them differently.
At this moment, the three of them knew that the girls had become more indifferent and even ignored them.
Even Takezo could tell that Naomi had avoided him, which made him hurt, and he wondered what he had done.
On the other hand, Takashi and Hirano wanted to show Rei and Saya that they were worthy of their trust. They were men, and they wanted their loved ones to believe in them. They didn't want to show their pathetic selves any longer, and they wanted to change!
This expedition was their change, and they definitely showed their worth, but—
"Are you stupid?" Saya mocked them. "If you have time to talk with me, then you might as well help others to move the items. Don't hinder my job here! Get the hell out! Or I will order people to throw you out of the walls!" She wondered whether they thought of themselves as the chosen heroes of the Isekai story, which made her roll her eyes.
"Takagi!" Takashi was furious, thinking that Saya was too much, but then he gulped when he saw many men from Saya's father staring at him dangerously with weapons in their hands. He wasn't stupid and could tell that they held a real weapon. Even Hirano, the military geek, had told him that they were real weapons and that if they were shot, they were as good as gone.
This was also the reason why Takashi believed that he could do it since if he got into the expedition, he should be able to get the weapons, and by then, everything would be easy.
Also, those weapons should be collected by Isao, right?
Why did Saya think that they were something they had gotten by themselves?
Still, if Saya knew what Takashi thought, she would laugh, thinking who he thought he was.
"I wish you were the one who died instead of my father."
Saya said the most vicious things from her beautiful lips.
"You...!" Takashi's expression was so pale when he heard such cruel words.
Saya didn't have enough and also wanted to torment them with her words, but—
"Saya, that's enough."
"Mama..." Saya looked away when Yuriko suddenly came to stop them.
"Komoro-kun, right?" Yuriko looked at Takashi with a gentle smile.
"Ah, yes!" Takashi was startled and felt quite nervous when he faced Yuriko, the wife of the man who had saved him. Still, to show his determination, he looked at Yuriko directly, hoping that this widow would see his determination.
"I have heard what you want to do, and I appreciate it," Yuriko said softly.
"No-no! I-I want to repay Takagi-san... I mean Takagi's father who saved me... I... I want to help, so let me be part of this expedition."
Yuriko raised her brows, thinking that this young man was quite shameless, hoping to join the glory that came from Isao later. Moreover, even though Takashi had said that he was grateful to her husband, he didn't even help to bury her husband's body and just rested with everyone, which made this guy even more shameless.
"If you wish to become part of the expedition, you should show your worth." Yuriko didn't give Takashi a chance to refute and said, "If you can take a lot of food from the nearby stores, then I will think about it."
"Fo-Food?"
"Yes." Yuriko nodded. "Everyone is in need of food. Try to gather them as much as you can. You want to be in use, right? So try to gather those foods so you can be of help to everyone."
"....."
Takashi hesitated to get food; it meant that he would have to get out by himself, which frightened him, especially when he wouldn't be with Isao. This was the real point, and he didn't want this, but when he wanted to say something, Yuriko left and talked with the survivors to take care of the daily matters.
"What? You can't do it?" Saya looked at Takashi with a snort.
"I-I can do it!" Takashi answered firmly. "But give me a weapon or two!"
Saya rolled her eyes and left directly.
"He-Hey! I'm not done with my talk!"
Yet, the men under Saya's father stopped Takashi and said, "If you can't do it, then just stay on the corner instead of barking like a puppy."
"Well, a kid is a kid, after all."
"You are right."
As they laughed, Takashi frowned and said, "I will do it! I will get food without your help!" Still, he turned and looked at Hirano and Takezo. "Hirano! Takezo! Let's do it!"
"...." 2x
On the other hand, Saya came to her mother and asked, "Aren't you angry, Mama?"
"I am angry, of course." Yuriko smiled sweetly, yet her eyes were so cold. "But I won't kill them. I will make them a slave who will work until they lose their value and die by themselves."
When Yuriko saw what kind of a young man Takashi was, she felt an intense hatred, thinking that her husband had died wrongly. After all, such a young man should have died instead of her husband!
However, if this didn't happen, would she be with Isao?
So, while feeling complicated, Yuriko gave Takashi mercy and let Takashi work instead of dying.
Merciful, right?
"Learn hard, Saya. Don't let emotions control you. Use everyone well, and make them work hard for you like a dog."
"Yes." Saya nodded with determination.
The world was like this.
If they couldn't be tough, then they would be the ones who were devoured.
Only Isao, who listened carefully, had his lips twitched before he let out a long sigh, thinking that as a simple and innocent young man, he was glad to have Yuriko and Saya as his lovers instead of enemies.
Still, as he was ready to go on the expedition, someone unexpected came.
"Isao-kun, can I come with you too?"
Shizuka came with a silly smile as she made that request.
---
It is almost over soon, by the way.
As for Takashi, well, his fate is gone, disappear.
