I'm going to have the anime rewatch again.... Fuck.

Back to the story!

(Y/N)'s POV

She dropped her cleaver and Zakuro-kun picked it up,

"O-ogre?"

She states, Kaikoku-kun just stared at her with no emotion.

"I'm Kihachi, the elder here. This is my granddaughter, Kikka." The elder introduced, "She jumped the wrong conclusion just now.."

"It's fine." Iride replied.

"Tonight this village is shaking in fear of the ogres. I don't know when my beloved daughter will be kidnapped either. I want to protect Kikka, even if it means losing this old life." The elder states,

"This is why... Receive all festival guests with the intent to kill"

Oh, so that's why i'm sensing some killing intent there.. hm.

"It is a rule this village abides by."

"What kind of rule is that.." Anya-kun mutters. I saw him look at me and i just smiled at him.

He clenched his fist, if he didn't stopped you there, you would be injured by now or worse, dead. Good thing that Iride insisted coming first. He gritted his teeth,

"It sounds like you're here to stop the ogre's rampage. I don't know if this will be useful but, please take this wicker basket." He showed us a basket, and... I think it cause someone's attention...

"T-this time, it's really like an RPG..!" Iride stated.

"Is it treasure? Equipment?" Yuzu-san said, almost being impatient on waiting.

"Don't be stupid. Now's not the time to get excited..!" Anya-kun said,

Says the one who's excited too..

Anya-kun opened the basket, anddd...

You've obtain a Sacrificial Robes (free size) x2!

Anya-kun put his hand on the elders collar and lift him up, "Are you telling us to go? Are you telling us to go die in you're place?" Anya-kun irked, while the elders daughter was panicking and iride-san just stared at the Sacrificial Robes.

"Ojii-chan!!"

"Return that!" Kikka-san said, stealing back her cleaver from Zakuro-kun, who was beside me.

"Return my cleaver!" Kikka-san got closed to Zakuro-kun which he blushed because she got too close. Zakuro-kun run up to hide on iride's back.

"S-stop kidding around, return it quickly or else.." Zakuro-kun and Kikka-san ran around Iride-san which made him dizzy

"I'm turning into butter.."

"But isn't it an interesting plan?" Yuzu-san said, "If we can locate ogre's hideout, we'll able to save the girls who've been kidnapped at one shot."

"If they're still alive, That is..." Kaikoku-kun state,

"They're alive!" Kikka-san said,

"... How do you know for sure?" Kaikoku-kun questioned,

"I know! Because even though ogres are ogres, not all of them eat humans.."

"Kikka, that's enough." The elder said, She looked at his grandfather and frowned.

"... Either way, it's going to be tough tho, eh." Kaikoku-kun sigh,

"Speaking of which, you'll be taking part in this game." Anya-kun said to Kaikoku-kun. "Huh?"

"You promised during the nurturing game, didn't you?"

"You actually remembered, huh."

"Isn't that obvious." Anya-kun said.

"So, the participants this time are Kai-san and.. Zakkun, are you joining..?" Yuzu-san asked, "Why me.."

"Haven't you guys been chumming lately? Disappearing together pretty often,"

I saw Zakuro-kun turned his eyes on Kaikoku-kun and me..?

"I don't really care either way..." He said, "Me neither." Kaikoku-kun replied.

"Great, now we need two more. As for the other candidates... (N/N)? Are you going to join?" Yuzu-san asked me.

"Huh? Me.. uh well..."

"No!" I heard anya-kun's yell, he stands up putting his hand on my shoulders, "I'm not letting (Y/N) into this stupid game," He said, i frown.

I saw iride-san raised his hands, "I thought so..." Yuzu-san said.

"But then won't be it be all guys? Don't ogre steals girls? Is this gonna be okay?" Kaikoku-kun said, he glanced at (Y/N). He doesn't want her to be part of this game either. He doesn't want her to be gone, never in his life. She's too precious to be kidnapped.

He won't allow (Y/N) to be hurt, so did the others.
