Chapter 6
Even during the fight you fall asleep
The three were dressed in grimy armor as they surrounded Gin and the sleepy beastman.
“Because it is the grandson of the master, until now we had to put up with the verbal abuse. But now -!”
“This beastwoman might be nice to obtain as well, don’t you think?”
Shouting words of provocation at Gin, the threesome eye the sleeping ‘beastwoman.’ It is not that a beastman is unusual in the Bronze country, but a girl fighting at the forefront in facing the monsters are very few. The number in Hairun was even less. So, when he began to doze where he stood it was conspicuous. (TL: Not exactly sure what’s being said here, so this is my best guess. 故に春眠とギンは目立っていた。)
The threesome and Gin glare at each other.
Gin is reasonably famous here. This is because he is the grandson of the guild leader Mainz, and during the surge of lizardmen, his successful partic.i.p.ation in the battle did not lose to the skill of the adventurers. The jealous adventurers number among fifty thousand, and they ridiculed Gin’s success from the shadows, saying that it was thanks to the weapons and armor from Mainz. Especially among intermediate adventurers, he was unpopular.
They all moved to a back alley of the city, as Gin wanted to publicly avoid trouble. But their mistake was in bringing Harumi, who could even sleep soundly in place.
“Harumi?”
The voice of Harumi had changed from his usual nonchalant to a threatening tone. Harumi was in a bad mood. The adventurers were interrupting his time for a pleasant nap after filling his stomach with good food. In addition, to tell the truth, Gin had a frustrating method for choosing any Tekito (roughly satisfactory) shop.
“Ahn? Silence, woman!”
“Gyahaha.”
The threesome intended to forcefully enjoy the company of Harumi after taking care of Gin. Even if the woman were hated, the threesome was helpless before thoughts of pleasure.
“You dare disturb my sleep?”
“Gyahaha! You and Gin are sleeping together?”
“It’s about time you shut up and listened silently you Nanahikari!”
“You guys! Involving Harumi!”
At that time Gin was trying to seriously protect by interrupting the conversation.
“The fool who disturbs my sleep should die…”
No one here knew Harumi leveled while sleeping. His current level from dozing is 102. Adventurers with a level greater than 100, regardless of their previous achievements, would be given an A rank certification. It is the same kind of treatment for the knights in the country’s army, you get used to superiors with sudden promotions.
Most skilled adventurers are around level 50. The threesome involved are not even at such a level, but were recently in the double-digits.
“Hey! Come on Harumi, they are just bullies.” By the way, Gin at the age of 18 was already over level 30. Only Mainz said his ability was already A rank. Unlike the threesome that does not notice the [Intimidation], Ginn feared to even stand next to Harumi. Cold sweat dripped from his forehead.
“What are you saying? Gyahaha this cat girl…”
“Saying something like that, are you wanting to be raped?!”
Harumi was using the [Intimidating] skill unintentionally. However, the threesome did not seem to be affected by the status abnormality, and in their hurried state they did not fear the lovely Harumi.Harumi rubbed his five nails together to create a crisp sound. In addition to the nail attack unique to the beast people, the usurped skill [Claw Slash] had merged with it, which was an unintended benefit. Where his body was withheld from the meal for sleeping, an attack fueled by his anger was deemed necessary.
“In order to not be disturbed, two scratches to the throat would work well. Don’t you think?”
He does not compromise anything for sleep. Such an unusual philosophy has no affection for any nuisance. Before transmigrating to this strange world, the place he slept at school was disturbed by delinquents, resulting in an interrupted sleep. For simply that reason the local gang group was annihilated and the members were all seriously injured. Each was stalked soundlessly and mortally wounded so they could not get up, creating a famous rumor of the [Death G.o.d].
And it will reappear in a different world —
There is now a noticeable pool of blood in the back alley. Harumi’s hands are covered in the threesome’s blood, a drop making a Pochari sound in the puddle. Gin, watching the three being immediately slaughtered, could only stop and stand still.
“Harumi. You…… ”
“Hmm? There is no longer a hindrance in the way of food. Let’s go!”
Indeed, third city Hairun permits self-defense as a rule when a fight becomes entangled, but excessive violence is not. Gin could not accept this devastating result. It would end in punishment. There had been no intent to kill.
“You killed them!”
“Because they disturbed my sleep? But they’re not dead – only a bit of anemia. Oh, they’re bleeding a large amount?!”
“…tsu!?”
Completely dumbfounded, Gin calls people quickly and the threesome was carried to the Church. Meanwhile, Harumi watched the men as if they were trash.
The Knights were left in charge of the threesome as Gin rushed Harumi to dinner before they could be stopped and arrested for interrogation, a likely event in these circ.u.mstances. The full story would be summarized before the Master of the Knights at a later date, and Gin didn’t want Harumi’s mood to become worse. However, his worries were unfounded. So long as there is any potential opportunity for sleep, Harumi usually holds no malice. His earlier performance seemed a lie as he became niconico (smiley) as they approached the rice-serving restaurant. As for Gin, he became nervous that perhaps this is the Inn the [Cold Princess] would lodge and eat at.
“Smells good -”
“Oh…is that so. I’ve heard the food here is good.”
“It is-”
“I’m first!”
“Ah!!” “Ah Nya!?”
Harumi held his forehead with both hands as the girl with hair the color of the sea stood up and yelled at him.
“Watch where you are walking, you cat! That hurt!”
“Well, I’m sorry?”
Although he surprised her by apologizing obediently, she put her hands on her hips in an unyielding pose. Harumi stood up during the child’s victorious air. When he does the girl grabbed his hand and admired Gin behind him.
“Meer!”
Gon!
The dull thud of a fist is heard. The blue-haired girl wriggled to turn around. At the end of the fist was a beautiful blonde girl.
“I’m sorry Meer is such a bother. Is your forehead alright?” (Maia)
“Un’! Thank you for worrying about me but ‘m fine ~!” (Harumi)
“Even though Meer is a high level, I’m sorry I thought…I’m glad you are fine.” (Maia)
“There is no excuse for this Harumi. Here! You apologize!” (Gin)
Gin quickly holds Harumi’s head down in a forced apology.
“No, no. It’s fine as Meer should have apologized as well. Apologize or Maia will look bad okay?” (Maia)
“…Maia.”
“What is it Christa?” (Maia)
Another girl pulled the blonde beauty’s skirt with a KuiKui. Her name was apparently Christa, and she was shorter than the blue-haired Maia girl. However, Christa’s hair and eye color were the same black as Harumi’s.
“…together.” (Christa)
“That’s right. This is the end of something as well. I was thinking of having lunch, but do you want to stay with us?” (Maia)
“Un’! Let’s eat with everyone.” (Harumi)
“Alright. Thank you.” (Gin)
This accidental encounter was something Gin could have never antic.i.p.ated. Harumi only understood that he was lucky enough to eat lunch with some beauties.
