Chapter 9
It was as expected
The goddess dully rubbed her hair .
[And I think it’s because you’re E-Rank, you’re too low in status… Even if your level goes up,you will not be able to expect a growth to your numbers hopelessly . If you’re not good at it, then the growth rate may even be less than an average person .
Hero?
What is a hero?
I was summoned without permission,
Being made into a hero without permission,
Then disposing me without permission?
[E- Even so!? It’s too much to suddenly be discarded–]
[Tsk~]
What interrupted my words was a loud clicking of the tongue .
[You’re one unsightly guy . ]
The one clicking his tongue is Kirihara .
[Don’t waste my precious time of my life . Good grief… Even though I usually handle it with care . ]
Kirihara sighed with irritation .
[I mean, that’s enough… Just finish this already . Everyone’s waiting for this to end . Especially, the girls looks tired . It looks pitiful . ]
One of the girls brightened .
[Ki, Kirihara-kun–]
Another girl follows up .
[Oh my! You’re really kind!]
[That’s right!]
[I mean, I can’t read the air too much, but Kirihara-kun is too caring!]
[On the contrary, you Mimori! What’s your problem!? Read the mood, will you!?]
[He’s the air himself, so he can’t read the air or anything . ]
[Pukuku~! Now that’s you’ve said it, you’re right! That’s funny~!]
[Stop your tirivial arguing already!] (T/N: not sure here)
[Just quickly end it!]
[I’m tired already!]
[Annoying! Give it up already!]
The boys started cause a fuss .
Oyamada is grinning .
At that time, a boy walked up .
Yasu Tomohiro .
His face is showing sympathy .
When he came to me, Yasu put his hand on my shoulder .
[Are you all right, Mimori?]
[Ya, Yasu–]
[Hah~?]
Suddenly, Yasu face looks like he’s hurt .
[Oi Oi Mimori, are you sure you’re okay? What are you talking about? For God’s sake, pull yourself together!]
[Eh? What are you–]
[Yasu– is it? You’re just a lowly E-Rank, you have to be respectful to this A-Rank me . ]
The sympathy on Yasu’s face disappeared .
The expression that appeared instead .
That is,
An overwhelming sense of superiority .
^
When was it?
On that day, I happened to witness Yasu being bashed by Oyamada .
Oyamada spat on Yasu and was just about to leave .
Yasu was covered in dirt .
I thought, it was too much .
That’s why I took the courage and spoke to Yasu .
[With the exception of Zakurogi, you should consult a teacher or someone better than that . ]
[………… . ]
[I’ll go out with you, too . As expected, Oyamada is already overdoing it . Oyamada is scary, but I’m also irritated with this mess . ]
It’s per as usual, it may be bad to retaliate against Oyamada without clearly knowing his faults .
However, we didn’t expect Oyamada’s actions .
I reached out my hand to Yasu .
I wanted to help him stand up .
[Let’s make a decision together, Yasu . ]
However, Yasu-
[Why are you!?]
Suddenly, I got indignant and took my hand off .
[You are not looking down at me, Mimori!]
Yasu is raging .
[… . . Eh?]
I was bewildered .
[Don’t tell me, you think you’re better than me!? Don’t underestimate me! At least I’m better than you!]
At this time, Yasu told me that .
I’m just air .
A mob .
From the top .
To the bottom .
I thought there was no way .
But it’s not .
Because nothing changes whether you are there or not .
Being disregarded .
Being behind the curtains .
But, Yasu was different .
He was a guy who thought very much about who is at the top and the bottom .
[You’re nothing! You’re not up there! That’s why don’t you dare have sympathy on me without permission! You’re annoying, Mimori! Die! Go away!]
From this time, I might have become a little conscious .
Of the ranking order .
v
Yasu brought his face closer .
[It was as expected . ]
There’s a tinge hidden in Yasu’s voice .
[I knew that, didn’t I? I thought it would turn around someday . The idiots in this class, by the time I got out of a top university, get a job at a top-notch company and my life is on the path to success, I’m sure at least more than half of them should be ranked below me~ Because they’re idiots who can only live at the moment, you know?]
It’s like another person .
No .
Is this the real Yasu Tomohiro?
[ You’re annoying, Mimori! Die! Go away!]
That form that I’ve only seen once in the past .
Was that the true “Yasu Tomohiro” after all?
[Oyamada is as expected, but Kirihara is no good either . Too much tone . Too much confidence . That’s what good people are like, but I just want you to suffer as much as possible~ Well, it’s good that there’s Ayaka, Hijiri and Itsuki . The rest is garbage . Their ranking is too low . ]
The way he called Sogou and the Takao sisters have changed .
Before,
“Sogou-san”
“Takao elder sister-san” (T/N: Takao no ne-san)
“Takao litter sister-san” (T/N: Takao no imouto-san)
Timidly, he called them as such .
[Ah~ I feel so much better~]
Yasu turns his back to me and flutters his hand .
[Then, live with your hardest in this short time that you’re going to live, Disposal Hero-kun . ]
I was speechless .
Really .
I wanted to convey them about the joy overflowing of Yasu right now .
But, I can’t tell it to my other classmates .
However, Mimori Touka will die anyway .The existence that will soon disappear from this place .
There is no problem even if anything is confessed to the E-Rank hero who will soon to be discarded .
It’s no use even if I howl here .
No use saying anything .
It will only be laughed at as the howling of the loser .
I was used .
As an outlet for his low self-esteem .
[What are you trying to say, Yasu~?]
Oyamada listens while looking down on me, a grin right on his face .
[That’s no good… I went to listen to his last words with at least my sympathy, but that Mimori Touka was an idiot who I couldn’t save anymore… Even if he have ears, he won’t hear me . ]
Yasu arranged his lies calmly .
[——–]
F**k .
What the heck .
What the heck is going on?
What the heck did I do?
Unreasonable .
Absurd .
[…………………………… . ]
Lots of emotions gather within me .
The goddess extends her arms to the magic circle .
[Well then, let’s start the ritual . ]
