Reincarnated to Bonk in Another World

Chapter 170: WHAT?!

"So, where are we going next, Teacher?" Yale asked with a serious expression. They just finished settling down here and completed the Horny Jail's construction. So, it was a bit hard for them to think about moving away from this place.

Albert paused for a moment and said, "I'm not going to ask everyone to come with me for this. After all, I don't want you to get entangled in the war."

Although Albert had told them about his intention in participating in the war, what they heard this whole time was about them bonking the demons, not participating directly in the war.

That was why Albert using the 'participating' word stunned and confused them. It meant Albert had decided to be considered as a force from the Lust Kingdom.

Jessie stared at Albert while clenching his fists. Albert had brought so many changes to him and granted this power. Even if he needed to die, he had sworn he would follow Albert.

Without hesitation, Jessie kneeled in front of him and said with a serious expression. "Master. As long as Master doesn't order me to stay here, I would like to follow Master. Although it's very dangerous, the battlefield is a huge opportunity for us."

Hearing Jessie's answer steeled Bepe's resolve. He kneeled on one knee and bowed, "I am Master's butler. If Master is on the battlefield, I shall become your sword. If Master is on the house, I shall serve you. I request Master to take me to the battlefield."

Shella also revealed her appearance and bowed to him. "Although I have lost my previous life's memory, I still know that I was a former general from this kingdom. Since the kingdom is at stake, I shall participate. But I want to make this one clear… Master is number one in my non-existent heart. The kingdom is the second."

After Shella, no one stepped forward anymore. Albert smiled and nodded. "Thank you, Jessie, Bepe, and Shella. I'm glad to have you with me."

When they heard about the word 'kingdom,' Yale and Irena's eyebrows twitched. Even though they did not belong to their kingdoms anymore, fighting for another kingdom was still a bit too much for them.

Albert also knew about this. Even back on Earth, he would think twice if he was asked to fight as another country's soldier.

After some thoughts, Yale asked, "I am sorry if I'm rude, but Teacher… there's something I want to ask."

"Ask away." Albert nodded with a smile. He was quite curious about this question.

Yale closed his eyes for a second, steeling his resolve. He clenched his hands and looked at Albert with a grim expression. "May I know whether it's alright for me to participate in this war from the sideline? I mean, can I remain in the camp just to bonk people?"

Albert listened to him and put on a gentle smile. There was no way he could blame him in this matter. "Are you feeling uncomfortable fighting for another country?"

"I apologize if I make Teacher worry about me… It's not like I don't want to fight for you, it's just…"

Before he finished, Albert waved his hand. "You don't need to fight together with me. Even if I join the fight, I won't heavily participate in this war. All I know is that… the hero will appear on the battlefield. My main objective is to defeat him."

Yale widened his eyes, not expecting to hear the word 'hero' from his mouth. He gritted his teeth and said, "I will make up with everything I can do later. I promise."

Albert patted Yale's head and smiled. "Don't worry, Yale. I understand."

Seeing Albert agree to Yale's proposal, Irena also stepped forward and kneeled in front of him with her head touching the ground. "I'm sorry, Master. I can't participate in the war. If it's only bonking the people in the camp, I can do that, but my heart doesn't allow me to directly participate in the war. If Master needs me to fight, please use the slave seal. I shall fight for Master until the very end."

Albert scratched the back of his head and patted her head too. He said in a gentle tone. "Please raise your head, Irena. I won't force something you don't want to do. There are many things you can do even if you don't directly participate in the battle. Help Yale in the camp for me, okay?"

"Master." If before Irena looked at him in awe, now she revered him in her heart.

"By the way, can you ask the pixies about this? If they want to participate in the war and increase their strength, this will be their opportunity. I will ensure their safety," said Albert to Bepe.

"Certainly."

After that, he turned to Yale and said, "Follow me. I have something to tell you."

Yale nodded and followed Albert to the waiting room. He was curious about what Albert wanted to tell him, especially right before the war.

Albert was a mysterious person in his heart. However, it was true that Albert cared for him, so he trusted him this whole time.

When he closed the door and sat in front of him, Albert dropped a bomb right in front of him.

"Well, how do I say this… I just got engaged with Lilith."

Yale dropped his jaw to the ground. His expression was full of disbelief.

No one would ever believe what he just said.

"You… WHAT?!" Yale shouted on top of his lungs as he rose from his seat only to fall again because his feet went limp.

"Sssh…" Albert placed his finger on his mouth, asking him to lower his voice.

"S-sorry." Yale apologized immediately, but his head was still in a mess. If people learned about this news, they would have the same reaction. No, they might even exaggerate it as this was simply unbelievable.

Since Albert wanted to talk to him, Yale tried to calm his heart down no matter how hard it was. Still, a question came out of his mouth. "What did you say again, Teacher? You got engaged with the queen of the Lust Kingdom?"

"Yeah." Albert nodded with a nonchalant tone.

"You…" Yale wanted to curse at his teacher but pulled away at the last second. He directed his confusion, anger, and frustration to his hands as he clutched them as tight as possible.

After a few deep breaths, he asked, "May I know why?"

"It just happened. She owed me some gifts and decided to give me herself as a reward."

"Teacher, can I curse right now?"

"I never prohibited you from cursing."

When he heard Albert's innocent reply, he lost the will to get angry anymore. He facepalmed and leaned back on the couch, frustrated.

"Do you know the importance of this matter, Teacher?"

"Kinda." Albert nodded.

"Kinda? There were four big things that instantly appeared in my mind when you mentioned this engagement. First, you're a person of the Lust Kingdom. Second, others will pay attention to you. Lilith is a just and beautiful ruler. There are many people who adore her.

"If they know about this, they will kill you. There are also other kingdoms… This kind of move is like throwing a huge rock on their way. No one knows what they are planning to do.

"Third, for what reason do you get engaged to her? You'll be restrained for the rest of your lives… And this is you who have taught two anomalies while being an anomaly yourself. You should know more about your worth.

"Four, what does she see in you? If it's a ridiculous reason, I'm sure she has an ulterior motive. I don't want you to get used by her!" Yale let go of all his frustrations while pressing his forehead. "Ugh. My head hurts just thinking about this."

Albert chuckled and said, "First, I won't be the person of the Lust Kingdom yet. I also have the option to back out in the future. So, we're like trying it out?"

"You serious? Is this a secret conversation?"

"No. The ministers were also there."

"Really? Did they just agree with this engagement? Are they useless pieces of shit?"

"Some seem to have approved me while some still don't like me."

"For real? They allow you to keep the succubus queen as your side chick that you can throw away anytime?"

"I am a man of principle. Even if they agree, there's no way I will do that easily." Albert shrugged. "As for the second concern… Yes, Lilith has agreed to hide this fact from others, so no one will know until the big reveal."

"Ugh. Fine." Yale gritted his teeth. "Even if the others don't know, those who support her still know. If there's a conflict in the future between her and her retainers, there's a chance of this information being spread around."

Albert looked away while saying, "I didn't think that far."

"Well, Lilith is loved by her people, so the potential is… at least lower than any other kingdoms. I'll accept it for now." Yale sighed. "What about the other two? It's not like I don't wish for Teacher to get married… It's just the person you want to marry is too important. There might even be assassins coming to poison you."

"I know, I know." Albert waved his hands. "As for the third and fourth reasons, they are related, and it's going to be a long story."

"A long story?" Yale widened his eyes and became hesitant. Albert never talked about his past, so he thought it was a secret. He always brushed it this whole time.

That was why he didn't know whether it was alright to hear this or not. He asked with a worried expression. "Is it alright for me to learn this?"

"Yeah. I think it's better for you to know it as the situation will become a bit tricky in the near future."

"I understand. If Teacher doesn't mind, please tell me about it."

"Actually, I come from another world!" josei

"WWWHHHHAAAATTTTT!!!!!"
