Chapter 151
151 . Kidnapping 4
this is troubling . I wonder what to do (Mitsuha)
There are various buildings such as mansions, warehouses, offices, etc . in front of me .
If I throw these oversized garbage, the amount is too much and its hard to process . When were done with everything, theres no other choice but to return these huh wait, no, thats obviously bad! A large-scale transfer costs the life force, at the time of the attack is one thing, but to return these would require the equivalent life force, no one would waste such thing Alright, lets sell the furniture and destroy the mansions and use it as material! This is a perfect chance, I wanted to build a big storage And for the offices (Mitsuha)
Right, it feels a little bit off if I use the mansions as it is, but I could put them to use if I broke them apart . However, for the high-rise buildings, Im still doubtful concerning the concrete piles or the foundations, theres too much anxiety to use as it is . In addition, electricity is required to operate the buildings properly, I mean, for the water supply, elevators, etc . , so it is not convenient . And its hard to break them apart, and theres no way to use the rubble .
Alright, lets make them into fish reefs! The top floor of the building should be above the sea surface to prevent boat from hitting it or caught by fishing nets, it can also be used as evacuation site in case of fishing boat accidents It may be good to make it a fishing spot . Yeah, thats good! (Mitsuha)
What a novel way to use waste, with this I can rest assured .
Please, convey the message to Her Highness the Princess! I must hurry to explain to Her Highness the Princess, who has misunderstood an event that has nothing to do with our country (the diplomat)
Apparently, they perceived that the high-pressure attitude was counterproductive, and figured that the telephone and e-mail would not work, thus they sent a low-profile diplomat directly to Wolf Fangs base .
But
Updated from novelhall[.]com
Even if you say that, theres nothing I can do if she doesnt come here by herself (Captain-san)
Captain-san no longer bothers to use polite language .
And if you managed to meet her, dont call her [Her Highness the Princess] . She abandoned that title . Itll worsen her mood . Call her [Her excellency the Viscount] no, just call her [Viscount] (Captain-san)
R-right (the diplomat)
And eventually, the diplomat returned, without agreeing to any promise or requests . But, well, the diplomat said something like [Please inform me when the Princess comes]
Hmmm, you came huh (Captain-san)
After confirming that the diplomat had left the building, I appeared in his office . And Captain-san gave me the letter given by the diplomat . I didnt come here by transfer though . I was always listening in the next room by putting a stethoscope against the wall Littmann stethoscopes have good performance, umu .
Whats written there? (Captain-san)
I shrugged and explained to the interested Captain-san .
Uhh, well, they said, [If we still cant get in touch, well send a message to the Princess via television or newspaper] (Mitsuha)
Eh? Isnt your existence supposed to be a secret only for a few people in each country? (Captain-san)
Yeah, so its a threat, theyre thinking that I would be troubled if I was publicized . But if they do that, the fact about what theyre guilty of, what they did against a lone little girl, and the fact that their confidential documents and data have been deprived would be known all over the world, and of course by their own countrymen . Theres no way they could afford to do something like that . But, well, I guess Ill get on their invitation . Ill react just like what they wanted and show them that I am really impatient right now (Mitsuha)
Ufufufufu
All state-run broadcasting equipment has been lost, including the backup system! Several transmission lines are broken, and all emergency generators has been disappeared along with the fuel tanks! (bad mans subordinate)
What the hell did you say!? (bad man)
All the equipment of the newspaper company has disappeared, and the emergency rotary press has disappeared! Television, radio, newspapers and state-run media are all paralyzed! (bad mans subordinate)
No way! Why did she react like this!? (bad man)
The leader thinking that his opponents reaction is largely differed from what he had imagined .
But the threat is working! Shes afraid that her existence will be revealed too much (bad mans subordinate)
You stupid fool!! That threat was meant to make stage for us to negotiate, but that makes her to take from us even more instead! In addition, If all the state-run media are paralyzed at once, things will be known all over the world! Anyway, hurry up the recovery! TV stations are our top priority! (bad man)
The leader shouted at the minister who missed the crucial point and determined that explaining on television would be the best way to resolve the publics anxiety . His judgment was right, but
Transmission test failed! Oscillator is not working!
Why theres no circuit board here!
We dont have enough electronic components? Whats going on!?
Why theres no memory available!?
The recovery has no progress at all
Yeah, well, I had to go around the print shop of newspaper companies and Broadcast stations around the world, once every several day, Its an easy job right? (Mitsuha)
(Captain-san)
And please forward the text that I just send to you (Mitsuha)
(Captain-san)
I sent a text file to Captain-san of Wolf Fang earlier .
It was a message from me addressed to all participant of the different world roundtable . The whole explanations about this matter
Attack and kidnapping of two civilian girls . it was ruled as [Kidnapping] because the victim was once kidnapped but recaptured, its not [attempted kidnapping] . Judging that it was a surprise attack without declaration of war, I responded with full power and is in a state of war . Therefore, the countries that sells or provides munition and resource to the enemy country shall be considered the ally of the enemy . The same shall apply to those who provides information about me .
The fact that the kidnapping was a national act has been magically confirmed, and that there must be no problem concerning the evidence . Countries that have a side to the enemy are magically identified and automatically determined to be an enemy without hearing any excuses . There should be no misconceptions about magical confirmation .
(Note: Magical seems too vague lol, but it is whats in the raw, as the raw is also vague)
And this message is going to be broadcasted to all participant at once .
Its more convenient to announce that were still in war with that country even after the harassment ended . Most countries will never be able to cease trading with that country altogether, so we could always ready to complain, and with that, the countries that makes a foolish request can be dealt by saying something like this [I will treat it as an enemy country] . Also, we can distort the [Munition and resource] condition to cover metals, oil, food or anything else . We need to insist that the evidence is [Magically Confirmed] . And we just need to break their relationships, so we dont need evidence that would convince every country . And maintaining the state of war with that country means that we can always attack that country and steal their strategic supplies (Mitsuha)
Well, Im not going to do something ridiculous like that . Unless the enemy does unnecessary interference again .
Oh right, we have to collect all the dragon materials and samples from the other world that we have provided to that country, as well as all the research results, along with all the records, documents and computers (Mitsuha) (Note: I guess shes talking about the materials she provided before that country was kicked)
(Narrators POV)
And a few days later .
A diplomat comes again to Wolf Fangs Base with a letter .
Mitsuhas appearance here was obvious as she immediately responded to the threat in the previous letter . In the first place, Mitsuha doesnt have any intention to hide
The day after, Mitsuha appeared and confirmed the letter .
Whats written there? (Captain-san)

To the captain who asked so, Mitsuha answered with a thoughtful face .
Well, in short, they said that they wont leak my existence on TV, radio, or newspapers, I guess? (Mitsuha)
Thats really short although there are so many pages (Captain-san)
Mitsuha shrugs her shoulders after hearing that .
I wonder what to do . I guess its about time (Mitsuha)
And then the captain said worriedly to Mitsuha .
Miss, if you overdo it, they may send an assassin for you, dont you think? well, its too late now they were humiliated this far and suffered so much damage, I think it wont be weird that a dozen or two dozen assassins were sent out . Are you gonna be okay (Captain-san)
Yeah, Ill be okay! Im [Sanders] after all! (Mitsuha)
What the hell does that mean!? (Captain-san)
Mitsuha borrowed the name of that person to protect her country, and the Captain, who might not know his name, had no idea what it means . (Note: well neither do I)
No, before that, it was linguistically incomprehensible, because [3 (San)] and [San] sounds identical .
However, only Mitsuha herself needs to know . That was all to it .
When the time comes, strike with [X attack] (Mitsuha)
Apparently it was the different [Sanders]
(Note: That X attack thing is a reference of 70s Manga [The sign is V (V)] . And one of the protagonist was called [Jun Sanders] . Well, I dont know the manga anyway, so I cant explain any more than this)
