Don't Worry, It's a Hospital

Translator : Elizabeth

After being hit by Lily's crotch kick and fainting for a moment, I woke up to see Lily and Yukino fighting bloodily.

Since both were so strong, the ground was shaking just from their collision.

I didn't know why they were fighting, but this sight itself was something I really didn't want to see.

Setting aside the damage to the surroundings, even though they were people from other worlds, both were my wives; what husband would like seeing his wives fighting each other?

It was already dangerous enough just with the two of them fighting, but I ended up seeing a scene making that situation even more dangerous...

"No, why is she over there again?!"

It was that Charles was in the middle of that fight.

There's no way Charles, whose basic physical abilities are just slightly better than mine, would voluntarily intervene in that fight, and it seemed she got caught up because she couldn't evacuate in time, but being in a place like that, even ten lives wouldn't be enough.

To save my junior Charles, and also to prevent the tragic situation of wives from other worlds fighting each other, I desperately ran to where the three people were.

Fortunately, Charles seemed to know well that she shouldn't be here right now, as she immediately slipped behind me as soon as I drew attention.

The problem was my two wives.

Since the two still looked ready to fight, I jumped between them to mediate the fight.

And...

Pue-eok!

Pu-shuk!

I suffered the disaster of being hit in the crotch again by Lily's kick and having Yukino's arrow lodged in my buttock.

"Kkiyaaaang!!"

"What are you talking about, who do you think we're doing this because of right now."

"What are you talking about, who do you think we're doing this because of right now."

It hadn't been long since I woke up from fainting, but I ended up fainting again due to the shock inflicted from both sides.

It's an unfamiliar ceiling.

Although the arrow that was vigorously lodged in my buttock seemed to have been pulled out as it wasn't there anymore, judging by the sensation of a ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠very heavy bandage, it seemed there were various emergency measures taken to treat it.

'Here... it's the Countermeasures Headquarters medical room.'

Actually, it was a familiar ceiling.

Opening my eyes and looking around quietly, I could tell it was the Interdimensional Transfer Countermeasures Headquarters medical room, where I had been indebted a few times when attacked while caring for interdimensional transferees on site.

It wasn't just once or twice I've been here, but I didn't know I would come here due to being attacked by my wives...

"Ugh... How much will I be indebted this time... Uheok!"

As I tried to raise my body, I involuntarily gasped at the dizzying pain transmitted from my buttock.

It ended at this level because the arrow hit the buttock at least; if it hit somewhere else, I would have really died.

I realized anew that my body was quite strong in Omitamano, the world where Yukino lived.

Back then, even if Yukino, angry to the top of her head, shot an arrow into my side, it ended with just a sting, and the wound recovered in an instant with spiritual power.

Now without such power, I had to be hospitalized just for having one arrow stuck in my buttock.

While I was groaning and tossing and turning on the hospital bed, suddenly the sound of the door bursting open was heard, and the screen covering the hospital bed was pulled back sharply.

A incredibly pretty beauty with white hair neatly tied up, wearing typical shrine maiden clothes of a white top and red skirt, was looking at me while breathing roughly with a slightly flushed face.

For some reason, she was even tearing up, and her gaze was scanning my body frantically as if trying to check if I was safe.

"Y-You... woke up..."

When she was fighting with Lily, it was too urgent and chaotic to look properly, but seeing her again after such a long time, she was definitely really pretty.

A person of Omitamano, a world where yokai, evil spirits, and sorcery exist.

Among the ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠several shrines existing in that world, a shrine maiden from the insignificant, small-scale Mikami Shrine, Kamishiro Yukino.

Possessing hair as white as snow, she had extraordinary innate spiritual power and grew up undergoing harsh training at Mikami Shrine, and met me, who was ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠transported to Omitamano, just when she was taking her first steps as an apprentice shrine maiden.

Our relationship began when she took me in at the shrine as I had nowhere to go, feeding me and letting me sleep there in exchange for helping with chores, and for some reason, I came to harbor considerable spiritual power there.

We trained together every day to build our strength, and after Yukino took off the apprentice shrine maiden title and became a formal shrine maiden, we blocked yokai attacking the shrine and then left on a journey to eliminate the source altogether.

We went through numerous battles for a long time, and in the process, having grown our love for each other, we ended our adventure by purifying the Yokai God, the source of all evil in Omitamano.

Having finished the journey and become a Great Shrine Maiden who saved the world, Yukino held a wedding with me receiving the blessings of Mikami Shrine and the villagers, and spent a sweet first night whispering love, but...

After she offered her purity to me and we joined bodies, I, who fell asleep, ended up being transported to the third world.

Just as Lily did, Yukino probably also grew tremendous resentment toward me while going through the same process, but fainting while spilling blood after being hit by an arrow in the buttock wasn't intentional, as her complexion was very pale right now.

"Uh... I couldn't greet you properly earlier, right? Hello, Yukino? Long time... no see. You're still incredibly pretty."

"Y-You... On earth... With just that level of arrow, it used to be just a sting for a few hours! S-Suddenly fainting while bleeding like that... Are you protesting to me right now?! Who is the person who wants to complain!"

"No... I told you I'm not like back then..."

"I thought it was an excuse you made every time!"

Well, whenever Yukino got really pissed off and shot arrows at me, I did make all sorts of nonsensical excuses.

Is this something like the Boy Who Cried Wolf's karma?

Yukino asked with an expression mixed half with worry and half with grievance.

"... How is the buttock."

"Hmm, it's very throbbing, so I could feel the effect of corporal punishment with my whole body. The buttock won't be like before in the future."

"Don't joke!"

"Joking means there is room in mind and body! It's a trivial injury to that extent, so you don't need to mind it much, Yukino. If you're curious, wanna see on—"

Saying that, I lay prone on ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠the bed and attempted to pull down the patient pants.

The problem was that in doing so, I lost grip of the pants, and with the pants hanging halfway on my buttock, it pressed exactly on the bandage part of the affected area, and a very thrilling pain was transmitted riding up the buttock.

"Ohooock..."

"...... Seeing you do something unsightly exactly like usual, it must be bearable. Then it's fine. Receive treatment well."

"Husband is hurting like this, aren't you going to help with treatment...?"

At those words, Yukino flashed her eyes.

"Husband? Husband, you say? Did you say husband just now? What husband in the whole world runs away and disappears on the night he consummated with his wife? I have never had such a husband. Didn't you mistake me for someone else?"

... Is this also déjà vu? I think I heard the same words from Lily...

I had a strong feeling that I would hear the same words 2 more times in the future.

"... Just knowing it's not a fatal injury enough to die is enough. I'll be going again."

Yukino also seemed to have a big emotional wound, as she really didn't treat me and turned her body sharply and left the hospital room.

Not long after Yukino left, the medical room nurse came in and informed me of my condition.

"Section Chief Jung Hyun-soo of the Interdimensional Transferee Settlement Support Division, it's not a major injury, so if you rest while taking it easy for a few days, you'll be able to return to daily life without any particular aftereffects. You were lucky. It's rare for it to end with just this level of injury after being attacked by an interdimensional transferee."

"Hahaha... She probably didn't shoot with the intention to really kill..."

At that moment, I discovered a certain fact in what the nurse said and bolted upright.

Although my buttock throbbed greatly, it was enough to forget even that pain for a moment.

"Wait a minute, was it reported that I was attacked by an interdimensional transferee? Then what happens to Yukino in the future? Surely..."

"Ah, was the name of the person who just visited Yukino? Ms. Yukino will be transferred to the Special Management Bureau after receiving strict surveillance for indiscriminate attacks on Search Team Hunters and Settlement Support Division employees. And Ms. Lily, who expanded the incident by unauthorized departure from the education site and attacking another interdimensional transferee, likewise."

"Pardon? No, where are you sending the two people? Special Management Bureau?"

"That's what they said. Not only the attack on Section Chief Jung Hyun-soo right now, but Ms. Charles who was on site also got involved, and Search Team Hunters got involved considerably, plus the battle scene went out live, so they say it can't be covered up. As soon as the treatment for the Section Chief and Ms. Charles is finished, a disciplinary committee will be held, and the two will probably be sent to the Special Management Bureau as they are."

"Did the two accept that? do the two people even know what kind of place the Special Management Bureau is?"

"Well, I don't know well up to that..."

The nurse shrugged her shoulders and tilted her head.

Unlike the nurse who didn't seem to think much of it, I felt like my insides were burning.

Special Management Bureau, as if I'd let them send my wives to such a place.

It's doubtful whether sending the two there itself is even possible in the first place, but even such talk going back and forth was an unbearable insult.

They aren't people who should receive such treatment.

I grabbed my throbbing buttock and got up from the hospital bed.

"Uh uh? Section Chief! You shouldn't move right now! Even if the injury isn't big, until the wound heals, applying medicine and lying down is..."

"Where is Charles? I need to meet her for a moment and talk. And I need to go meet the higher-ups of the Countermeasures Headquarters."
