I’m having a trouble thinking about how to deal with him who suddenly started making such a fuss but immediately went back feeling depressed again. Really, what’s wrong with him? Would it be better to cut off his head after all?
Rena: “Are you really okay?”
Yuu: “Yes, I’m fine……”
…………………………He doesn’t seem to be okay, if I may say.
Yuu: “In any case, I’m fine. Nothing happened to me, yes that’s right, I’m feeling completely fine.”
This is very severe, yes……? Did he receive some kind of mental attack in some way? However, I haven’t detect any enemies yet, though? If so, should I expand my searching scopeーーー
Rena: “Stop please.”
Yuu: “…what’s wrong? Are you going to finally cut my he-”
Rena: “I hear footsteps.”
Yuu: “!! From where? How many people?”
Oh, seems like he has recovered, yes? That’s great, but this is not the right time for that.
Rena: “So, what are you going to do?”
Yuu: “? What do you mean?”
Rena: “I’m apparently called the genocider, no? Will you be alright being seen together with me?”
Yuu: “……Ahh.”
It would be pitiful for him as the game might get difficult for him to play in the future if they think that he’s my accomplice. Hence, I asked him in advance.
Yuu: “I don’t really see any problem, or rather, I’ve come this far so why don’t we go to the city together?”
Rena: “…won’t it be a problem for you if they mistook you as my accomplice?”
Yuu: “It’s okay! Please don’t worry about it as I could work this out!”
Saying so, he answered with a big smile.
Seems like there’s no need for concern if he has said that much, yes?
Yuu: “……….besides, an otaku classmate and the prettiest girl are now adventuring together in a game… No matter how you look at it, this is straight out of a light novel… (murmur)”
Thus, I headed towards the footsteps alongside him who for some reason, started mumbling again.
I followed Rena-san after having forcibly returned to my senses halfway along the trip.
Yuu: “…”
I’m starting to panic right now as I have cleared my mind… It’s uncool to retract what I have said but… I do think it can’t be helped as I wasn’t in a capture party to begin with and I don’t even have any real fighting experience as well…
Rena: “…you don’t have to be that nervous, I’ll kill them all.”
…………As I thought, Rena-san is a kind person at heart, but why is she being savage like this? Could it be that there’s a problem with her home environmentーーーーーー No, no, as one would expect, it’s rude to ask something like that.
I’ve been thinking rude things such as having contact with the prettiest girl in class since a while ago. This is not good indeed.
I have to look at her properly andーーーI really do want to be her friend.
Yuu: “It’s okay, I’m also good with support skills so I won’t be a burden for Rena-san, rather I might be pretty useful, you know?”
I responded to her concern with a smile.
Rena: “……Is that so?”
Just as we proceed while exchanging such conversationーーー
???: “?! You again!?!”
――――We encountered the players.
Aren’t they one of the capture party? Moreover, it’s Hannes’ party as well…… Our class is different but we’re still in the same grade so it’s hard to meet him like this, you see… it would have been great if it was Harold’s party instead, though.
Fortunately, he is the so-called high-caste student, hence I’m probably saved as he seems to not recognize a gloomy nerd like me. I’m glad that he still isn’t aware of Rena-san as her atmosphere and demeanor is so startlingly different, really…
Rena: “…………Again?”
Hannes: “Y-you…?”
Ryne: “Hannes, calm down. I’m feeling the same but let’s keep our cool….”
Rena: “…I need to do my best so that I can remember individuals first, yes?”
Myra: “Poor Hannes…”
You’ve got to be kidding me right, Rena-san?! You have already killed them three times, you know?!! Even at that time, I heard that you fought him at the plaza, met him in the narrow passage, and he even participated in the coup from start to finish only to be killed by you while he was making a passionate speech, you know?!
Surely you can’t forget about him like that, right…? This is too pitiful for Hannes and his party……
Kellin: “Perhaps this is a lot crueler than just being killed…”
Yuu: “For some reason, I feel like the situation is becoming very interesting.”
We’re enemies as of current but I strongly agreed with what he said.
Ryne: “…hold on, there is one more person behind her.”
Hannes: “!! You have a comrade now?!”
It’s her biggest change, so of course they will notice, right?
Hannes and his party raised their guard and observed me with cautious.
Rena: “? He’s not my comrade, though?”
Hannes: “…Then why are you together with him?”
Rena: “Because he’s a well-informed person, I’m making him spits out all of the information.”
Hannes & Yuu: “” … “”
No, it’s the truth, though!! But, there should be another way to say it, right?!! See! Look at them! Their gazes have changed from cautious to eyes full of worry!!
This is totally embarassing, you know!! Their eyes are saying 『What did she do to him?』 and 『What a pitiful guy, indeed…』!!
Hannes: “…What did you do to him?”
Kellin: “What a pitiful guy, indeed…”
See! They literally said it!! Even that Kellin guy laughed at me!!?
Rena: “? It seems I can’t follow this conversation at all…”
Yuu: “This is hopeless…”
Although I vaguely felt it before, I wonder if Rena-san is a natural-born airheadーーーwhile thinking so, I moved behind Rena-san to support as much as I couldーーー
