Chapter 14 I Hate This Woman
A woman was attacked by a ruffian or so I thought, but it just a drug addict that moves and says exaggeratedly alone.
Come on, let’s run away. It is the most troublesome to be entangled with such fellow. Because the talk won’t go through.
If you can talk, you can still understand or compromise, but if you can’t talk, in the first place, you can’t do anything.
I turn away from the woman who even now is monologuing as if she was drunk while being illuminated by the moonlight, and try to go back to the inn.
She wasn’t attacked, no complaint here right, Cursed Sword?
『It’s Holy Sword. U-umm… but still…. Either way, I can’t overlook a woman being alone in this middle of the night….』
How much does he want to help others, this guy.
It’s okay. It’s okay.
It seems she’s here with her own intentions, and there is a way to escape even if she falls into such a situation.
Good, my persuasion seems to turn out well.
He must be disappointed a bit because it wasn’t something like he had thought. I am also, betrayed in a good meaning and happy.
Also, She’s alone even while doing something stand out like voice out at midnight. Even if something happens, it’s just she paying her own mistakes.
I don’t care what happens to this stranger woman.
『A-after all, let’s stay here and watch her!』
You are stupid!! If you do that, the suspicious person will be me!!
A man who sees a woman from the shadow, not an acquaintance… it’s a dangerous guy.
Let’s go home.
『B-but……!!』
Ahh, annoying. This cursed sword is persistent.
To begin with, there’s no way she will be pleased being watched by me.
The man who she met for the first time is staring in the shadows because it may be dangerous… that’s completely become a sight of a crime.
Still, my legs attached to the ground and don’t want to move because of the cursed sword. Hey!!
「……Who?」
The woman turned around and look at here because he hesitantly stays here.
I see, it seems she can at least sense a presence. That’s why she comes out alone in the middle of the night.
I can’t do it at all.
Anyway… Aahh, now she’s wary of me because the cursed sword’s fault.
Why I’ve to be looked like this? Haa… my tension is going down….
『S-sorry. But, we’re already here so let’s talk to her.』
Ehh… how far is his good will goes, this guy.
The best action here is a single word of apology, go back to a safe inn and go into the bed.
I observe the woman. Light brown hair that was trimmed shortly, seemed to be not well maintained.
Magali always cleans her hair so that she can catch a good man anytime, so the difference is clear.
However, her appearance is well ordered. Not as much as me though. Her purplish eyes are big and the skin is white… but, i feel it’s somewhat dirty.
The people in the village also feel that way, but I wasn’t so dirty because I was skipping dirty work.
Her face warped into that of wary looks, and yet she’s expressionless so it’s hard to read her emotions.
Hmm… For me who like a woman that will pamper me, it’s a minus point.
『Just who do you think you are?』
Shut up, cursed sword.
The woman looks wary.
What do I want, she said? That’s my line, you fool.
If you weren’t doing something weird alone in this place, I won’t be urged by the cursed sword and come to this place.
What is the purpose of going out alone on such a night….
I should have the best sleep in a warm and fluffy bed now… this woman, I hate her.
『He’s quick at judging people preferences…!』
Ignoring the cursed sword’s voice, I put a smile.
「No, I could hear a woman’s voice. It wasn’t natural to hear a woman’s voice in the middle of the night, so I came to check it. I come to help if anything happen.」
『Y-you are not in a position to say that…! 』
Make my white tooth sparkle, and emphasizing that I came for her sake….
「…Is that so.」
The woman relaxed her vigilance a little… or so it seems. She’s expressionless even now so I don’t know.
Of course, it doesn’t mean that she’s not wary at all, there’s still stiffness left on her face, but that’s normal. Rather, those who suddenly have trust are scary.
『I-impossible… to think she believes of what Alistar says…!』
The cursed sword raised voice in astonishment, it seems he doesn’t understand anything. Can’t be helped… let me tell you the truth of this world.
Haa… listen here, cursed sword. Most people are judging by appearance.
『W-what in the world…!』
Yeah, it’s certainly is cruel. Because it is a natural product, there is nothing that can be done with effort.
However, it’s generally believable for an ikemen like me that say something like ‘I was worried’ with a good-looking smile. Because it’s ikemen.
『His self-praise is amazing!! Rather, I’m impressed by you who can do acting that much…. 』
It is natural to behave as if you were worried even if you were not worried about the woman at all.
People around the world should have this ability.
Well, humans are not about appearances, but what is inside. I think so, but the world is not.
『Ehh!? What’s wrong!? For trash like you talking about decent things…!!』
I’ll kill you, cursed sword.
Marrying because of appearance, there’s no way I would do that. No matter how good you look, if you are not rich or don’t pamper me, there is no point in getting married.
『Wrong, marriage is not like that…!』
「…I’m sorry for making you worry…. Should I tell you what I was doing?」
No, thanks.
I saw the woman who gets excited alone with cold eyes inside. It’s not that I want to hear it. The delusion of drug addicts.
She might get mad suddenly and come attacking, I want to run away quickly.
That said, her looks might be dirty, but there is no such thing as being messy with drugs, and her light-purple eyes are well focused.
Well, if it just listening.
「I was practicing a theater.」
「Is that so. Good luck, well then.」
Okay, that’s all. Goodbye.
I was waving and turning my back on the woman.
『That’s too flat!!』
The cursed sword yells, like hell I care.
Rather, why is she practicing theater alone in the middle of the night? That’s ridiculous.
Usually, theater or something like that is something like join a proper theater group and practice with your friends, right?
Outside that, practice alone without friends… I only have bad feeling.
Also, I’m not interested in the theatre.
『Ehh… I think your feigning innocent is a great performance though….』
Don’t say stupid things, you damn cursed sword. Don’t think of it being a performance.
I’ve been feigning innocent to make use of this excellent figure since I had awareness of it. Even though the world will judge by appearance, it will still lose its brilliance if the inside is bad.
A true ikemen is not only the appearance but also the personality. And only then you can find a woman that convenient for you. There’s no way those people who have practiced a bit, can stand on the same level as me.
『Your way of talking is cool, but something is wrong!』
Well, there you have it. This woman can just practice here and become a great performer, or be attacked by a ruffian who has heard her voice just like me and cursed sword.
That is this woman’s life. Do it properly.
I thought so and tried to leave coolly….
「…Hey, wait.」
「Ha?」
My sleeve was pulled by the woman who was approaching without me knowing.
Don’t touch me casually, you bastard.
While holding my emotions, I turn back with a smile on the surface….
「……Keep me accompany for a bit」
…………Ha?
To the words the woman who said it with upturned eyes but expressionless, I doubted my ears.
