Chapter 64 – A Sudden Takeout
Translator: Eros
The creation of [God] in the form of a mud giant caused by a nameless black hooded guy didn’t manage to create chaos to the world outside and inconspicuously (?) closes its curtain.
Due to Rebecca’s request, Radish corpse got buried beside the grave where her mother rest.
[…… Because mom will definitely scold him]
Because that was what she says when asking, Renya couldn’t find it in him to reject her request. Renya actually resent the guy because he is just the worst kind of scum who cruelly offers such a good girl like Rebecca as sacrifice. Moreover, he also died easily without even knowing just how big the trouble he had caused. But he also realizes that he doesn’t have the qualification to be angry at that guy.
Well, that is understandable after all.
She had lost her family abruptly and then she works hard for the sake of her last blood related family but it was all in vain. And now, she is all alone in this world.
Renya isn’t the type to extend his hand and help every John and Doe he met. He only decided to help when his heart tells him so. That was not because of hypocrite motives like he is the hero of justice or such kind of lofty ideals. It was only because of one simple reason: he just feels like it.
He just succeeded in becoming a god after much trial and tribulation after all so he doesn’t want to bear any more extra responsibility. That is what he actually feel right now.
That’s why, extending his hand towards Rebecca is a special case among the specials.
That’s right! The true reason of why he did it was because he has the worst kind of ulterior motives. But even so, his action standard is possible because he is a [God] who had experiences living as a [human].
“Rebecca, what you gonna do after this?”
“……… I don’t know……”
“…… You don’t think of anything else besides helping that uncle of yours right?”
“……… Yes”
“Then we should find things you want to do and things you should do right?”
“……… that…… might be true”
After Renya said those things to her, Rebecca once again thinks about her own condition.
That’s right, it was just like what Renya said.
Those days after losing mother and older brother, she keeps on pursuing her past.
She never thought about [present] and [future] nor did she wish for it.
In the short yet long half a year, Rebecca was losing the whole reason for her to wish for a better future.
“Then how about you start by joining us on our journey?”
“……… Eh?”
“Join up with our party then let’s go together. You can slowly think about it from there, about what you want to do from now on”
“……… But”
Won’t she become a burden for them?
Looking at such worry in Rebecca’s expression, Renya pats her head a bit forceful.
“No one in our party that will think Rebecca as a burden if you decided to join us. Or rather, they would definitely feel happy instead. But well, the bad thing is, you will be spoiled rotten together with Therese”
“…… Au……”
Aah, that smile filled with confidence when affirming her. And this hand that is a bit forceful but from it, she can feel that she is treated as someone important…
Rebecca can’t help but remember that her older brother too used to do the same thing to her before.
[It’s alright you know? How could I think of something my little sister does as an annoyance?]
If she’s not mistaken, that was happened when they took a job and camp out in the night. Did it happen when she gives something to drink for her brother before she goes to sleep? She forgot the detail but she still remembers his hand. Different from Renya, She didn’t feel that good when he pats her, maybe he wasn’t used doing it, but even so, she still feels happy from her older brother clumsy yet considerate action.
“If you find something that you want to do then I will support you to do it, even if that means leaving our party, I will not mind. I don’t invite you to join our party to bind your future with us. To find what you want to do in the future, you can ask us for help, that is what I mean”
“……… So I can’t reject, is it?”
“Of course you can’t. It is you we talking about anyway so if I ask you to join us, you definitely will refuse by saying such thing like you are just being a burden or something. And persuading you is too much of a work”
“……… Persuading is…… too much of a work……”
From Renya words, Rebecca could detect a hint of arrogance in it which made her let out a wry smile.
“Because I can tell that I will definitely use all method that I have under my sleeve to persuade you until you agree to join us. That’s why Rebecca’s opinion is generally veto-ed. Just think of it as you being kidnapped by a mean Onii-san so you would not mind bothering us”
“……… What you said is, very absurd…… you know?”
The kidnapper says that it is alright for her to bother him. Just what kind of logic is that?
I will take care of you, I won’t take a no.
To sum it up, it can be said like that but, why did he need to say it in such a roundabout way?
“Then I’m going to say it one more time okay? In short, I don’t want to make you feel obliged to me nor I feel pity of you. It was just, it might be just a short few days but, we have done job and eat out together. And then knowing that girl who I know met with such big accident that is enough to become a turning point for her, I can’t just say goodbye and left her all alone like that. You can say that this is my selfishness”
“……… Selfishness……”
“That’s right, just my own selfishness. Such a good girl that is on a friendly term with my little sister in name, having a good compatibility with her in battle, and most of all, would grow up into such a beauty in the future, abandoning such girl would be just a big waste. That is my selfishness”
“……… Err…… your real intention…… is leaking in the later part……”
“N? Why should I hide it? Rebecca is a cute girl. That is a fact. In addition to that, she is a good girl and is a close friend of Therese. It can’t be helped that I start thinking ‘okay, let onii-san here kidnap you away’ right?”
“………Eeehh~……”
This is weird. Disastrously weird.
Why is it weird? Not only he speaks incoherently like that, he desire also mixed in it. It was really nonsensical at all.
But why, even with such thing, Rebecca still could feel warmth behind Renya’s word. That’s why Rebecca feels that she herself has become weird.
“That’s why I will say it again. Rebecca will be kidnapped by a bit evil onii-san here. And that guy is an unheard of weirdo who will guarantee your daily necessities and freedom”
That’s right, Rebecca is currently instigated by a weirdo.
“---- I don’t try to make you feel debted. I just said that it is okay for you to search for the [next] together with us”
Being in their care without being a burden. And looking for new things in life from now on.
