After guild master Aizawa was done telling Elena and Tomoe everything, he then requested them to bring those ladies to him. He promised to find some jobs for them. This was a good offer but Elena did not immediately agree. She told Aizawa that she would be setting up a meeting between him and the ladies. There Aizawa could tell them about his proposal. If they agreed then everything was fine. But if they did not then Elena would be responsible for them.

Elena had seen that these ladies had all become very scared of people, especially men. Except for Elena, they were unable to interact with others normally. They needed some time to even get used to Tomoe's presence. So in their current mental situation, they would not be able to do most kinds of jobs.

Elena was planning to give them some kind of behind the door work. Or if some of them were willing to relocate to her mini world, then that was also fine. She had the capability to give these choices to the ladies but the guild master did not. But still they had known Aizawa for a longer time. So if they were fine with it, then Elena was also fine with the guild master taking care of them.

So Elena decided that after two days, Aizawa and May would have a meeting with the victim ladies. Why did Elena decide to do this after two days ? That was because currently they were unable to participate in any kind of meetings and Elena judged that two days would be needed for them to calm down.

...

After the meeting with the guild master was over, Elena and Tomoe returned back to the inn. They needed to go to the guild again the next day to submit the Duke's special heirloom. Elena wanted to do that today but the guild master said that when he was told about the item, he had not thought that any adventurer from his city would be able to recover it. So he had not paid enough attention to what was being said.

So first Aizawa needed to contact the central guild first to learn more about that item and only then would he be able to properly identify it. That was why Elena and Tomoe were asked to come back to the guild the next day.

After coming back to the room, Elena was a bit surprised to see that the ladies had recovered quite a bit. They were doing better than she had expected. Elena was happy about that and started to chat with them. At first these ladies were a bit scared of Tomoe as she gave off a powerful aura. But now they felt safe by the same aura. So Tomoe was also able to participate in the conversation happily.

As for how the ladies were able to recover so well, actually Zona was responsible for that. Zona was a likeable personality that was able to inspire anyone and her willpower was also very impressive. While thinking about many things and their lives going forward, Zona had become determined to not waste this life that she thought had already ended. She told all the other ladies about her thoughts while bathing and they all were inspired by her. That was the reason why all the ladies had managed to recover this well in such a short time.

Elena was happy that the ladies had managed to get back to their feet and then she asked them about their future plans. Elena did not forget to mention the proposal that Guild master Aizawa had given to the ladies and reassured them that it did not matter what path they chose in their lives, Elena would always be there to support them.

In her previous world, when Elena was nowhere near as powerful as her current self, Elena had faced similar kinds of situations. But she had never been able to say the words that she just said. That was because the previous Elena had many many limitations and she was just a single person who was not even able to save many close friends of hers. The current Elena also had restrictions but not as much.

That was why the current Elena was able to say these words. She was able to support them fully with all the powers she had. Elena did not go out her way to show her powers off. But when there was a need, she had no wish to hide anything. The lives of these ladies were way more important than her acting all mysterious and as a tiger with a sheep's skin.

...

Hearing what Elena said, all the ladies had tears in their eyes. Then they tried to bow to Elena. But with her superhuman prowess, Elena stopped everyone at the same time and hugged the ladies. Feeling the kind and gentle warmth of Elena's body, those ladies were unable to hold back anymore and started crying while burying their faces in Elena's body. Elena also patted their heads and backs to soothe them.

After some time they stopped crying and started to tell Elena what they had thought for their future. All these ladies who had seen Elena as their savior wanted to dedicate their lives to her. They had gone through a lot and currently they needed to depend on someone to keep on living. And obviously this someone was going to be the person who had saved them in the first place.

This was definitely not a very healthy way to live their lives but Elena did not mind that. If depending on her was able to give them the will to live, she was ready to take on that responsibility. Her shoulders were always ready for them to lean on. As Elena looked at the ladies who were looking at her with a pleading expression to accept their little request, she started remembering all the people she had failed to give support and how terrible that failure made her feel. That was a kind of pain that even Elena did not want to feel again. Her dying with her whole body getting corroded and dissolving was less painful to Elena than that.

Elena hugged all the ladies again and told them that if they really wanted, Elena was ready to receive anything that they wanted to give to her. This situation was quite sad and Tomoe felt that the corners of her eyes were wet. She had some knowledge that her all powerful sister had also failed to protect someone in her life so she was able to understand the thought that was going on in her big sister's mind. So that made Tomoe even more sad.

...

So the ladies rejected Guild master Aizawa's proposal and were willing to go live in Elena's mini world. They also decided to help Elena in any way possible if Elena ever needed it. This life was given to them by Elena so they were fine losing it for her. Elena was obviously not going to give them any opportunity for something like that to happen.

Just like that, the future of these ladies was decided.
