Upon arriving at the adventurer guild, the patrons all quickly turned silent. Hiro had a couple of things happen that made it that way. First, he had the label "the princess's rapist" thus indirect bullying happened as many loved Rhyne. He silently endured it and took missions every day without complaint.
When the number of kills Hiro made skyrocketed, the patrons blamed him for cheating and scorned him without rest. That all changed when he came back after getting overdrive. His entire demeanor turned sharper when he needed to bear death and loss. The bullies all felt it, but some still believed he remained the same weak-willed person.
People who grew frustrated in life usually bullied others to make themselves feel better. Thus they could not accept someone called the shit-covered trash swordsman to be better than them. The final nail arrived when his harem walked with him toward the guild.
After hearing the scorn their beloved endured, his women called out close to twenty-five people to a brawl for his honor. Of course, being that they were quite eccentric in appearance, Raylene, Vanessa, and Jade were insulted as per usual.
But due to keeping a low profile, people forgot how overbearing the trash swordsman could be. Hiro knocking two people out when he smashed his sword on their skulls should have been the first clue. Challenging all twenty-five at once to a trashing match should have been the second. Him losing all emotion on his normally goofy face should have been the third.
Ignoring all three signs gave the town a show, Hiro who knew that the people would not die made full use of the system. Without remorse, he bisected people, again and again and again, using overwhelming strength. For the duration of the thrashing match, all twenty-five people experienced decapitation, mutilation, evisceration, and being cut in two.

Hiro kept slamming the halves together to force the bodies to heal, only for him to slice them apart again. When the healing process was too slow, he started pouring potions on them. All forms of begging, coercion, negotiation, and intimidation fell on deaf ears as the trash swordsman enacted his vengeance.
Everyone knew, if not for the system, there would be twenty-five dead adventurers. Yet the man didn't stop, his fury continued to burn as he slashed them again and again. At the end of the trashing match. No one could even look the trash swordsman in the eye. His cold face as he cruelly tortured people were seared into their minds.
Thus it became a rule, you were free to trash talk about Hiroyuki Mitsurugi all you want, but mock any of his women and he will cut you apart to the point you wish you were dead. There were eight female adventurers in the twenty-five, so most knew gender could not protect you. After that day, the bullying the Mitsurugi harem endured disappeared completely.
Since the Dominii royalty and justice system didn't interfere, everyone knew that they gave silent approval of Hiro's actions. Back to the present, Hiro nonchalantly walked forward as his women held his hands or clothes.
The receptionist felt her blood drain from her face when she saw the trash swordsman make for her counter. 'OH NO! IT'S HIM! WHAT DO I DO?! WHAT DO I DO?!'
Unaware of the internal clashing of the woman, Hiro then pulled up his status screen specifically the mission logs.
"Hello, I have here the ears and magic stones of forty goblins and five hobgoblins all ranging from level 20 to 35. They are all in the cart outside along with some rusted weapons. The quest you gave was mistaken, it was not a small goblin group but a horde instead. Please give me my pay now. I need to prepare to leave the city tomorrow. "
The ones who heard all started to whisper in horror. "Goblin extermination? Didn't Wilson's group leave for that one two weeks ago? And Gustav's squad after that!" "Yeah! I heard the last one to take it was Yelena's harem Firefly." "Five hobgoblins? Wasn't that quest marked D?" "No way D-ranked parties and harems can win against such a powerful horde." "Shame, let's hope they find peace."
Suddenly the doors to the guild opened. The ones to arrive were the five girls who were saved from the goblins. They made a beeline for Hiro and his party then suddenly bowed.
"Hiro-sama! Elder sisters! Please let us join your battle harem! We all left ours as our dominants either died or we had our harem wiped out. Please accept us."
The answer came faster than anyone expected. "I refuse, my battle harem is full."
With five beautiful women of different flavors begging to belong to your harem most men would jump at the chance, but not Hiro, he already had a plan in mind. Hiro then ignored the women and focused on the receptionist.
"So, my reward?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Ah! Please wait for a moment we will verify everything and add the amount to the quest reward together with the compensation for incorrect information."
As the receptionist went outside she called people to help with the verification. The goblin survivors knew Hiro was a dead end so all started to beg the members of his harem.
"Elder sister I will be useful!" "I can protect Hiro-sama with my life on the line!" "I will make sure no pesky women approach him during his travels!" "I will make sure he eats every day!" "I will warm his bed every night!"
Hiro's girls who never had experienced being in positions of power didn't know what to do. The three started to entertain the idea of having people protect and care for their man while he was out on missions. But they also didn't like the idea of such beautiful women being around their husbands all the time.
'Especially that last one, she is dangerous.' They all thought.
Suddenly a large 200 cm tall wall of muscle with red hair entered the guild. His visage was something people were not able to see for more than a month.
"WELL! IT SURE IS LIVELY IN HERE!"
At the sight of the husband from Starfall the five goblin survivors all quickly left and hid behind other groups. Similarly, all other spectators vacated the premises. The battle of the Mitsurugi harem and Maximilian was like a legend now. Hiro and his harem remained where they stood as Max walked in.
"So Hiro, ready to die tomorrow?"
