It was early in the dawn when everyone was still sleeping in their chamber.
Haru looked at Ieyasu who put luggage into the caravan hurriedly.
"Sayo, help me!" Ieyasu shouted.
"No! I'm very tired!" Sayo said. She didn't believe that her private place was very sore at this moment. She really wanted to go to sleep, but she knew that it was a very important time. However, she also knew that it was really good. She understood why Esdeath had made him into her husband and couldn't help but feel envious. She could only softly caress her stomach with a smile.
"Well, don't force her on Ieyasu," Haru said.
Ieyasu sighed and said, "Come play in our village anytime."
Haru nodded and said, "I will." He looked at Sayo who also looked at him. He waved his hand and said, "Goodbye."
"...." Sayo hurriedly looked away and said softly with a sad expression. "Goodbye." She didn't want him to see her crying.
Ieyasu hugged Haru for a while and said, "I'm sorry."
"Don't be," Haru said.
They hugged for a while before separating from each other. They didn't say anything else and Ieyasu started to control the horse to make the caravan move to his village.
Haru looked at their back with complex emotions. He shook his head and decided to go back to his office.

Haru was in his office while reading the report from his subordinates. He had been quite busy for a few weeks before wrecking in a lot of places in the Capital. He had received a lot of protection money from a lot of people who did a shady business since they feared him.
However, there was one problem that he needed to take care of.
'Captain Ogre.'
He only shrugged his shoulders and said, "Well, this guy is dead after all." His time on the Imperial Police was really good and he didn't have anyone who bothered him anymore since Ogre who was his opponent had died under the head of Night Raid.
He knew that Tatsumi, who was a friend of both Ieyasu and Sayo, had joined the Night Raid and killing Ogre was Tatsumi's first test.
'The problem is Esdeath.'
He tapped his table using his finger slowly while thinking about this matter. His smooth career was because he had been using Esdeath's name and he knew that Esdeath would come back from her campaign on the North.
'Do I need to go to the revolutionary army?'
*Knock!* *Knock!*
"Enter," Haru said.
The door was opened and a man entered his office.
"What's wrong?" Haru asked.
"Sir, Iokal-sama has invited you to his party," the man said.
"...."
Haru had a headache about this Iokal, but luckily this guy wouldn't live that long. He shook his head and said, "Tell him that I'll visit him tomorrow since I'm quite busy today."
"Yes, Sir," the man said and bowed his head before leaving his office.
Haru had to admit that Iokal was good to him, but he couldn't understand Iokal's hobby who loved to torture a woman. He knew that Iokal wouldn't live too long and he couldn't wait for that time. He took an eye mask and decided to take a short nap since he hadn't taken a good sleep earlier.
---
Haru had woken up from his short nap and talked to his subordinates to rob, no, confiscated Captain Ogre's wealth. He knew that Ogre had a wife, but he didn't care about that. He knew that Ogre had a lot of money and it was too wasteful to let Ogre's wife use it. He had seen Ogre's wife and knew that woman was interested in him, but he rejected her right away since he was afraid he would get sick when he had intercourse with that woman.
He looked at his men who gave him a salute and went out to prepare confiscated Ogre's wealth. He knew that it would be impossible to gather all of them, but it was good enough as long as he could gather a majority of them.
He continued to work since his work had increased with Ogre's death. Sayo had also gone back to her village and no one helped him in the office. He sighed and thought that he really needed someone to help him.
---
Iokal who received a message from Haru's subordinates didn't really care much since he knew that Haru didn't really like to have a party. However, he had always tried to invite him since he knew that Haru's culinary skill was very superb. He had tried it by chance and he had never tasted such delicious food before.
If possible, he wanted to make Haru into his personal chef, but he knew that he couldn't do that since that guy was Esdeath's husband.
Iokal sighed and felt a bit jealous of Esdeath since that woman could eat the food that was made by Haru every day. "Well, it doesn't really matter." He looked at his new bodyguard which was stronger than the bodyguard which was killed by Haru in the past. "Hehehe, let's start the party!"
"Yeah?!" The five bodyguards showed lewd smiles as they looked at the group of girls inside the room.
The group of girls hugged together and they knew that their fate would be in the hands of those people.
---
Haru went back to his house which was given by Iokal in the past. He had been living with Ieyasu and Sayo in the past, but today he would live in this place alone. He wanted to sleep early today, but he didn't expect that there would be a guest who appeared at his house. He saw six people standing on the top of the thread and knew that those people didn't have good intentions coming to his house at night.
