Chapter 85 Useless Human
Part 1
Another example was when I created the Clan and wanted to go view cherry tree blossoming. For some reason, there was a shift in the tectonic plates under us and a High-Level Shrine appeared.
And if it is something recent, then we have that time when I sent Tino to the 【White Wolves Den】 and something unexpectedly happened, so most of my decisions almost never goes well.
Initially, I have never been very lucky but especially after I became a Hunter my luck has made a remarkable sky dive.
I was able to overcome everything by bluffing through, doing dogeza and also because of everyone’s follow-ups. However, that doesn’t mean that I am okay with every bad thing that will happen or that I am used to it.
A few days have passed since that terrible auction, I couldn’t regain my liveliness, so I am relaxing and laying back on the sofa in the Clan Master room, I was trying to sleep.
Originally, it isn’t like I am particularly active but the after-effect of all the hard work going up in smoke was too strong.
When Eva told me that the 『Reverse Face (Facial Transformation) 』 lot was won by éclair-jou, I made it looks like I was fine but as time went by, I became more and more depressed.
It isn’t like I am regretting winning the lot that Sytry wanted.
Moreover, most of the money initially come from Sytry and it is still true when at that time I thought that it would be better if I don’t get that Relic than making her cry. And also I am used to Lucia being angry at me.
But this and that is a different story… I need some time to swallow that.
I don’t feel like doing anything. I don’t feel like going outside or going outside to eat some sweets.
Everyone knows that I was aiming for that mask. And of course, they should also know that I turned tail and ran away without even participating in the auction.
Surely now, they are all curious and want to see how a first-class Clan Master is going to seriously handle that problem. Seeing me is the only thing that must be avoided.
One of the reasons, Hunters are prohibited to go in starting from the fourth floor of the Clan House, is to keep Hunters from seeing me as I regularly lose my vigor.
I twist my body and roll around on the sofa when I accidentally fall on the floor.
A little bit of air escape from me because of the shock. How miserable, isn’t my condition suitable for a loser. When that kind of pathetic thought cross past my mind, I want to laugh.
At this point in time, éclair-jou is probably ridiculing me as a pitiful man who ran away without even fighting. Perhaps this has even increase Gladys-kyo discrimination against Hunters.
And finally, the mask that I really wanted will go to Ark who doesn’t even need it. Aaaah, how can life be so cruel.
As I instinctively whispers this, I rolls down on the floor of the Clan Master room. The floor doesn’t hurt because Eva has attentively put a high-quality carpet in the Clan Master room.
I want to live the rest of my life like this, crawling on the ground like a caterpillar.
If there was a hole, I would want to go inside. It doesn’t mean that I am embarrassed or something but more like because the underground looks more peaceful. I can do that because have no concept of shame.
When I was engrossed in my meaningless act, someone knocked on the door of the Clan Master room.
While spreading my limbs and expanding the area of contact to the maximum, I try to reduce the burden caused by gravity and turn my head toward the door to answer.
“Yeees.”
“Pardon me. Cry-sa… Nnnnn…!? Wha, what are you doing?”
When Eva saw me laying down on the floor like a corpse, she looks startle.
In the first place the number of people who can enter this room is limited. There is no problem even if Eva sees me as she knows how weak I am.
For the past few days, it was her who brought food to me when I was withdrawn in the Clan Master room or my Private room, so there is nothing to hide from her.
“… You don’t understand after seeing me?”
“!? …… Absolutelyyyy, no ideaaaa, at all.”
“…… Don’t you know? I fell down when I was rolling on the sofa.”
“Argh, come on! Look, if you roll around like that, you will get dirty! You are a Level 8, aren’t you!?”
Eva takes my arm, pulls me under her shoulder to make me stand up. As I was completely sluggish, she makes me sit down on the sofa.
I am seriously apologizing for the inconvenience.
As usual, unlike me, Eva’s uniform doesn’t have a single wrinkled at all. The white uniform of “First Step (Footprint of the Beginning)” looks good on you. She doesn’t look like she is working a dozen of times harder than me.
… No, no matter how many times you multiply zero, it is still zero. Aaaah, how rude of me to compare Eva with someone like me.
“What is wrong? You looked sluggish for the last few days!”
“It is the usual.”
“!? Well… That is…”
Eva looks like she is in trouble.
My dependable Vice-Master who didn’t sight one bit even after hearing me that I had used over one billion Gils or even when I told her that I couldn’t get the mask due to an unexpected expense.
She is so broad-minded that makes me want to try to know how much I can do before she can’t forgive me.
“…… If you are fine with me, I can hear you out if you have any worry?”
I have way too many worries, if I can get one Gils for each of my worries, I can easily repay my debt.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
“It is too late. It is already the turning point. Don’t have the caliber for it. Every single time, life doesn’t go as I have expected it. I want to retire.”
“Huh!?”
When I was ranting, Eva opens her eyes wide and takes a step back.
At last, it seems that I have attained the level of useless human that can even pull back my kind Vice-Master.
That is right. I am a useless human. It is no use anymore. I want to quietly live in the seabed like some shellfish. And surely, I will be attacked and then eaten by an octopus or something without being able to counter-attack.
“…… E, even after all this, it still isn’t going as you wanted?”
“If I have to rate it in a scale of one hundred point, I will say it is about fifteen point. I didn’t even get the mask.”
“Fifteen points!?”
It looks like Eva is in disarray when she hears my lifeless, random answer. I am really sorry for all the troubles I caused you every single time.
I would like to thank you someday, but I am sure that it will just backfires to me.
TL notes:
Thanks for reading!
No Cry, Eva isn’t shocked because you attained a new level of uselessness but because she thought that you created all those rumor about the mask and even involve a noble just to gather enough money to obtain the Golem and all that planning is only rated as 15%.
And it was so funny when Eva couldn’t answer back when Cry said that doing nothing was the usual XD
