It was as expected
The goddess dully rubbed her hair .
[And I think itâs because youâre E-Rank, youâre too low in status... Even if your level goes up,you will not be able to expect a growth to your numbers hopelessly . If youâre 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!? Itâs too much to suddenly be discardedâ]
[Tsk~]
What interrupted my words was a loud clicking of the tongue .
[Youâre one unsightly guy . ]
The one clicking his tongue is Kirihara .
[Donât waste my precious time of my life . Good grief... Even though I usually handle it with care . ]
Kirihara sighed with irritation .
[I mean, thatâs enough... Just finish this already . Everyoneâs waiting for this to end . Especially, the girls looks tired . It looks pitiful . ]
One of the girls brightened .
[Ki, Kirihara-kunâ]
Another girl follows up .
[Oh my! Youâre really kind!]
[Thatâs right!]
[I mean, I canât read the air too much, but Kirihara-kun is too caring!]
[On the contrary, you Mimori! Whatâs your problem!? Read the mood, will you!?]
[Heâs the air himself, so he canât read the air or anything . ]
[Pukuku~! Now thatâs youâve said it, youâre right! Thatâs funny~!]
[Stop your tirivial arguing already!] (T/N: not sure here)
[Just quickly end it!]
[Iâm 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, Yasuâ]
[Hah~?]
Suddenly, Yasu face looks like heâs hurt .
[Oi Oi Mimori, are you sure youâre okay? What are you talking about? For Godâs sake, pull yourself together!]
[Eh? What are youâ]
[Yasuâ is it? Youâre just a lowly E-Rank, you have to be respectful to this A-Rank me . ]
The sympathy on Yasuâs 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 .
Thatâs why I took the courage and spoke to Yasu .
[With the exception of Zakurogi, you should consult a teacher or someone better than that . ]
[............ . ]
[Iâll go out with you, too . As expected, Oyamada is already overdoing it . Oyamada is scary, but Iâm also irritated with this mess . ]
Itâs per as usual, it may be bad to retaliate against Oyamada without clearly knowing his faults .
However, we didnât expect Oyamadaâs actions .
I reached out my hand to Yasu .
I wanted to help him stand up .
[Letâs 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 .
[Donât tell me, you think youâre better than me!? Donât underestimate me! At least Iâm better than you!]
At this time, Yasu told me that .
Iâm just air .
A mob .
From the top .
To the bottom .
I thought there was no way .
But itâs 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 .
[Youâre nothing! Youâre not up there! Thatâs why donât you dare have sympathy on me without permission! Youâre 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 . ]
Thereâs a tinge hidden in Yasuâs voice .
[I knew that, didnât 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, Iâm sure at least more than half of them should be ranked below me~ Because theyâre idiots who can only live at the moment, you know?]
Itâs like another person .
No .
Is this the real Yasu Tomohiro?
[ Youâre annoying, Mimori! Die! Go away!]
That form that Iâve only seen once in the past .
Was that the true âYasu Tomohiroâ after all?
[Oyamada is as expected, but Kirihara is no good either . Too much tone . Too much confidence . Thatâs what good people are like, but I just want you to suffer as much as possible~ Well, itâs good that thereâs 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,
âSogou-sanâ
âTakao elder sister-sanâ (T/N: Takao no ne-san)
âTakao litter sister-sanâ (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 youâre 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 canât 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 .
Itâs 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 .
[Thatâs no good... I went to listen to his last words with at least my sympathy, but that Mimori Touka was an idiot who I couldnât save anymore... Even if he have ears, he wonât hear me . ]
Yasu arranged his lies calmly .
[âââ]
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, letâs start the ritual . ]
