I may just have missed it but when did it went from "Emmerich will never leave the village and live with Aina in the mansion rented by Ritz" to "Emmerich and Aina will just leave"? Or is it only until Emmerich definitely leave the army because right now it's only a short leave? I'm a bit confused.
Also why did Aina's mother said to her father-in-law to come live with her mother-in-law and her? Where was he living before?

@ Mivas I think Emmerich wanted to live in the village because Aina didn't want to leave in order to help her family. But since the grandfather is hard to deal with, the mother decided it's better to let her live in Emmerich's hometown. Not sure about this, but I think either way Emmerichh won't return to the military.

@8bitholic I had someone yell at me at work that I had no respect for him because I didn't realize he thought he was waiting for me when a coworker yell at me. My response was I looked him in the eye and said I don't because it's clear you don't have any for me. The whole thing led to him getting kicked out because he kept yelling and swearing in punjabi at myself, my coworker, and my boss.
God I dislike people like that. On the flip side though, there's a good amount of people of the old generation who don't act like that but it's always the bad of the bunch that leave an impression.

Bless your heart for uploading multiple chapters at once. I hope aina finds the happiness that she deserves.

It's because of his dependents. His family gets by mostly on what he gets from hunting. If they got rid of him or took away his gun, Ain's mother and grandmother would be without food or income. They were lenient because they ultimately DO still care about him and those who would suffer without him.

To frame my response, I am from the American South, and have hillfolk and mountain folk as relatives, friends and acquaintances.
In a town/village that has hunting and gathering as an important or even primary way of getting food, guns are treated much differently than in urban, suburban, or even normal rural areas. A rifle is basically an extension of one's self, so they are used more blatantly than in other environments. If someone goes onto private property, or tries to intervene in a family dispute, a reaction like the grandpa showed is not unexpected, even today.
To make matters worse, the clannish attitude of the grandpa (for similar reasons), such as the obsession with traditions, and violent distrust of outsiders, can be very common. Kids adopt their parents' prejudices at a very young age, and it becomes self perpetuating.
Law enforcement has to be very careful in these areas, as they are so isolated and clannish as to be little different from the way they were in the 1850s. There are still areas in the Catskills and Appalachia that don't have electricity and running water. They are ever more rare, but still around. Law enforcement either has to tread lightly, or risk death for properly performing their duties in a fashion that is common anywhere else. Some family "hollers," valleys lived in by generations of the same family, are basically off limits to everyone, and law enforcement ignores everything except blatant murder.
For a Japanese comic, I was surprised at how familiar the attitudes and behaviors of the people in this story were to me. Even down to the "authorities" backing off from offenses that would have gotten prison time in a normal town, for the sake of "keeping the peace."

Congratulations old man, you sacrificed seeing your "beloved granddaughter" because of your actions. Maybe you can ask the spirit if what you did was the right thing.
The silence will be your answer.
