Akuyaku Reijou ni Nanka Narimasen - Chapter 388.2 (Patreon)

A superior is responsible for the mismanagement of their subordinates.
“In other words, I have to beat up that little brother of yours instead!”

“Wait! How did you come to that conclusion!? He’s only sleeping!”

“He abandoned his child! Although it wasn't his intention, he gave birth to Haru, so he should have protected him!”

“He did protect me. While he was awake.”

Haru looked despondent. It’s his father, so he didn’t seem to dislike him.

“... Let’s try waking him up first.”

“!?”

Haru and the Spirit King of Wind showed shocked expressions.

“He has been sleeping for a while now, no? I’m good at undoing spells, so let’s knock him awake!”

“Wake him up normally! He had no malice!!”

Tch, I got exposed. Haru scolded me when I smacked my lips.

So we came to the room of the little brother of the Spirit King, who was sleeping peacefully. The young man sleeping peacefully looks just like Haru. When I searched for the magic... it was close to seal, but not. Huh? This is……

“Haru, what kind of spirit was he like?”

“... I think he was kind.”

“With a strong sense of responsibility, kindhearted, and quite stubborn?”

“Yeah.”

The Spirit King of Wind nodded. Haru nodded as well. I sighed. It can’t be helped.

“I will wake him up normally. Rinka, watch me closely.”

“Yea!”

Rinka macho saluted me, and my concentration was severely impaired, but I somehow manage to focus. The most important thing to do is to synchronize our magic powers as much as possible and carefully untangle the seal.

“Uah… incredible. You pervert. Your control over magic power is too much. It’s abnormal!”

How rude. As soon as I casually stomped on Rinka's foot, the spell was successfully broken. Rinka was rolling around in agony. Hey! Rolling around in a loincloth… what if it fell out!? I thought for a moment.

“... Nn…”

“Are you awake, little brother? How are you feeling?”

“... Is this a heaven? It can’t be hell since you are here, right?”

“No, you are not dead to begin with.”

The little brother of the Spirit King of Wind cursed himself. He had cursed himself to a slow death with recurring nightmares.

“Eh!? W? why!?”

“Because you were sleeping so soundly, people were saying bad things about Haru, so I broke the spell… no, I mean the curse."

“...!? That can’t be……”

“Wha!? What is the meaning of this!?”

Haru and the Spirit King of Wind were in shock. The little brother looked astonished.

“I’m sorry! You were bullied even though you did nothing wrong… I, I… I should die to apologize…!”

“Don’t!!”

It's been a while since I have hit someone with my harisen. It made a good sound on impact. I spoke to the little brother who rolled on the floor after being hit.

“Listen well, okay? If you die, there is a possibility that people will speak ill of Haru even though he did nothing wrong! So instead of dying, please do your best to spread the word about Haru, that he is a kind, witty, and wonderful boy!”

“Wait! There are many things I want to interject to, but what do you mean by ‘spread the word’!”

“Hmm… indeed.”

“I will do my best!”

Haru interjected, but the Spirit King of Wind and his little brother agreed with serious looks on their faces. As expected of wind spirits.

“Wa, waiiiit!!”

With teary eyes, Haru chased after the two wind spirits, but… well, to no avail. Because of the wind, rumors seemed to circulate quickly, and everywhere Haru went, the spirits stopped him in his tracks to apologize.

By the way, the little brother became a heretic himself because he gave birth to Haru. He tried to take over Haru’s other attributed magic power, but was unable to do so… it seems he tried to kill himself out of guilt.

However, he used the spell while he was in a bad mental state, so it didn't work properly, and he was slowly losing his life force instead. Now he has reformed and is working hard to proselytize about how wonderful Haru is.

He told me heartwarming stories about Haru, and I got so into it with him, but Haru cried to at least talk about it while he was not present. Haru is so shy.

By the way, the little brother seemed quite puzzled by Haru’s behavior, and it turned out that he was quite the natural airhead.

That settles the matter!!
