hainemakorutranslations.blogspot.comOkay. This will be the last chapter for today, and again, I"m planning to take another series of 10,000 Steps is finished. So lay down some series you want to be picked up. And later on, I"ll be making a Poll at 12AM, UTC+13.
Sorry for leaving you at a cliffhanger :(... I thought it wouldn"t be...
VOLUME 1, CHAPTER 2-2
I don"t honestly know what to do if such lines were whispered in my ear. A~, s.h.i.t, at least I can save and load! I"m afraid of being hated and I won"t know what to reply. Why don"t MMORPG have save and load? It doesn"t really differ from reality? 「E, etto-desu ne, w,.what should I do? Iya, if I at least have my options, I can think about it. I, it"s not that it"s unpleasant. Simply that I, no, that kind of thing, I"m not used to it.」
My face probably is deep-red. But I can"t help it! It"s impossible for a real-life fantasy experience to be told by a beautiful woman! A~, the helmet that hides my face is really reliable now. The helmet is part of the face.
I kept being embarra.s.sed and just now noticed, but as I suddenly raised my face, Forneus and Satanakia were staring at me with a stupid expression.
「Are you... really... h.e.l.l-sama?」
[TL Note: HE is! He made h.e.l.lshaft-sama after all!]
「Yeah.... The atmosphere is quite different.」
Eh?
「Etto, if that is true....Ma~, though I am not the character, I am a person inside. That"s right.」
Forneus kept her breast pressing all the way. Same with Satanakia on the other side. The expressions of the two changed. The eyes which were heart-marks disappeared and are giving the cold gaze.
[TL Note: This is known as "unusual pupils", yup, I know who you are]
Then a window opened between the two. The status 《ＬＯＹＡＬＴＹ》 was displayed there and it decreased from 80 to 30.
[TL Note: "LOYALTY" was said in English]
What"s with this display? Did the atmosphere change? Did this mean, I picked the wrong choice? Iya, if possible, I wonder if they"ll display the options in the window. Like an eroge.
[TL Note: Erotic Games, there are some that I know of, like "Teaching Feeling", and HuniePop... f.u.c.k... wtf]
「King.」
A butler-like man slowly lowered his head. One of the generals, Adora.
「E, etto, what is it?」
I lowered my guard and answer. Adora frowned.
「.....Would you let us know the words as usual.」
Eh? A speech? No, no. I get nervous when I go to the public. I"m not good with that sort of thing. Even in the cla.s.sroom, I stiffen when I stand in front of the blackboard. How does everyone withstand such pressure? My life expectancy must be a lot shorter. In order to protect my life, I must deny the request firmly.
「I, iya, I"ll do it the next time....」
Are? Is it just me or are Adora"s eyes giving off a cold expression? Forneus and Satanakia are also getting farther away from me.
Because of the somewhat disgusted atmosphere, I inevitably raise my heavy back from the throne. Nevertheless, I understood that from the demons who filled up the hall, tense nervousness ran among them.
As I move forward, as far from the edge of the stage the very hall is resting, the demons pay attention to every single one of my move.
Iya, I"m getting that nervous feeling. Can"t you guys keep on talking? Even though I know it"s a character of a game, I"m still getting nervous being gaze at.
Because there wasn"t a thing like a microphone, in particular, I began to talk loudly unwillingly.
「E, e~tto, ano, thank you for all your hard work. I mean, I don"t understand the situation that well. Thus, even if I am to speak like the character I made, I"d feel something strange?――」
Before my very face, a sword which shined as having been wet was thrust.
「U owa~tsu!」
I jumped back at once, but the sword that came before my face was stuck.
A, adora~tsu!?
The sword belonged to Adora. When Adora cornered me by his quick movements, I thrust a sword directly into his neck suddenly. And he said in a cold tone.
「You, who are you?」
Adora"s sharp eyes shone in the back of his gla.s.ses. I felt killing intent only with his eyes.
「Na~tsu, what kind of person, oh, oh, I am....」
When I focused on Adora, a numerical value appeared beside him. The number which was at 50 suddenly dropped to 0. It was the same display with Forneus and Satanakia earlier.
Looking closely at the number, and beside it《ＬＯＹＡＬＴＹ》 was written.
Royalty? Loyalty....was does that mean? That zero.... That means Adora"s loyalty to me is at zero. If you don"t respect me either, we are not familiar. And I don"t think I"m the King. A cold sweat runs down in my heart.
Perhaps... Is this a dangerous situation?
