Sofia sighed. She didn’t want to have to go do this, but she had to.

She’s been requested by a noble, from an allied nation to her island of Sofia, to go deal with some rowdy politician on Momoiro island.

“Why me? Can’t they just send some guard or something?” her miniature self inside of her Castle Dimension asked Anna Blue, who was also riding inside of herself. The tiny one grinned, but then played it cool. She had been waiting for Sofia to open up to her about this, and she didn’t want to ruin this moment for her - even if she really did feel tempted to give her some attitude about why she hasn’t opened up sooner.

The Navigator shrugged. “Beats me. But you should just go do it. He doesn’t seem that powerful in comparison to us. We can totally take him on.”

“Yeah, but it’s not a matter of that.” the mini-Sofia mentioned. “It’s just, annoying. To have to go beat people up. What am I, some sort of henchman now? I thought I was gaining fame about being someone that gets things done without violence.”

“I mean, you did take down Hunter Jacquelin…” Anna Blue then said. “With pretty much brute force.”

The clone then slapped her hand onto her face. “Anyways.” it mentioned. “Let’s just get this guy and be over with it.”


“Yeeeees, Sofia-chaaaan?” the eccentric politician called out to her, as he arrived to the café that she had agreed to meet him at. It had been quite easy to get it arranged - they were both part of the exact same social circle, so it was trivial for Sofia to get his contact, to then Den Den him and get a meeting set up with him. It was just a normal everyday thing for a noble like her.

However, this time, she wasn’t here to talk about treaties and economics. It was a trap. A very simple one. Just getting him to go to Sofia, who this man knew little about (and Sofia knew little about him, really), to then simply capture him and hand him over to authorities.

“Such a pleasure to meet the noooble of Sofiiiia.” the man then chimed in, to then sit down on the table.

“Likewise.” she then replied.

“You knoooow.” he then added. “I’ve been looooking for allieeees. After a… Smaaall tussle, I’ve been wondeeeering about on whose siiide you are.”

“What tussle?” Sofia asked, playing dumb.
“Oh, you knoooow.” he said. “I got into a liiiittle troooouble.”

“What sort of trouble Louis?”

“Oooh, you know. He wasn’t aaaaccepting of the LGBT coooommunity. Such a bigot.” he explained.

“Not accepting how? Why? What happened exactly?” Sofia insisted. “I can’t really do much if I don’t understand the whole context of this.”

Louis then looked side to side. Then, he leaned in closer.

“Maaaybe you can help me with this beeeefore it gets worse. I was juuust… Interested in the boy, you knooow? Just a liiiittle love, what haaarm does that do? But… he took it as an attack! Just love! Can you believe it?!”

That wasn’t the story that she had been told by the person that he has been allegedly molesting - the person who has sent her after this guy to settle the score. Besides, he already got a bounty for what he had done, legitimizing the fact that he did do it even further.

There was just one option for Sofia to do here.

She sighed. It was a pity that she was going to have to defeat someone so weak here. But, what had to be done, had to be done.

“We should discuss this somewhere more private, Louis.” she then said. “This is a bit public.”

“You’re riiiight.” he said. “What do yoooou suggest?”

“Come with me.” she then said. “I know a place.”

“Aaaalright!”


Together, the two politicians went over to walk towards the docks of Momoiro, in between the warehouses.

“Isn’t this plaaace a bit, uhm. Unsafe, Sofia-chan?” Louis then asked.

“Don’t worry. You’re with me.” Sofia then said. “Now, I know this has all been so hard on you.”

She then approached the flamboyantly gay man with open arms. “Hug.”
“Hooou! Finally someone that understands me!” he cried out, with tears suddenly pouring out of his eyes, and going to Sofia to hug her.

Then, with the sound muffled by the castle walls and the hug itself, rifle shots fired from within Sofia’s torso, into Louis’s chest.

“Hnnng-Gaaah! W-whaaaat!” he hissed out, and started to take steps backwards, with his chest bleeding with five bullet holes in it.

Blood started to ooze from the corners of his lips, and his eyes glazed over. And then, he fell to the ground backwards. Immediately, Sofia pulled out her medical supplied and got her pliers to pull out the bullets and treat the wounds. Each of the shots had been designed to be made from castle loopholes in her body that were positioned in such a way that when fired, they would hit non-lethal places on the man’s body. It was just a matter of making sure he didn’t bleed out now that he was knocked out.


Once she bandaged him up, and made sure that he would survive properly, she carried the revolutionary over the Marine Station.

“Louis Roberts.” she then said, holding him in one hand, and holding up his bounty poster in her other.

“L-Lady Sofia?” the Marine behind the counter muttered. “A-and Louis Roberts? What happened?”

“Nothing.” the Lady replied. “I’m just handing him in for his bounty.”

“O-of course.” the man then replied. “Let’s see here, Louis Roberts… Here we go. Is he still alive?”

Sofia put her fingers to his neck to check his pulse, just in case. “Yeah, he should be. Just unconscious. I treated his wounds, anyway. I didn’t want him to die.”

“Alright then.” the Marine then said, to then carry the limp man into a cell. “Here is your slip.”

He then signed a paper and gave it to her.

“What’s this for?” she asked.

“It’s so that you can pick up your bounty money.” he explained. “I… guess you’ve never handed a bounty here before, right?”
She nodded.

“Well, just go to a bank with that.” he then said. “And they’ll give you the money. We don’t have the money right here under the counter, heh.”

The noble nodded. “Thanks. I’ll go do it then.”

“Yeah, no problem. And thanks for handing in this criminal. Doing the community good, Sofia!”

“Yeah…” the noble girl replied, reluctantly. She didn’t enjoy having to do this, but at least she fulfilled the favor to that other noble.

Luckily, it had been a easy favor to do.
