Chapter 105 – The Daily Life of a Reincarnator
“…What a pain, huh.”
Mumbling, Koigawachi Momoka glanced at her companions, the “dragons”.
No. 1 had minor injuries.
No. 2 and No. 3 had slightly reduced flying ability.
No. 4 was, …I had to heal him as soon as possible.
She made a bitter expression as she flew through the gaps between the buildings.
No matter how much I level up and get stronger, it’s meaningless if I’m careless, …I should know better.
She had been attacked by the enemy a few minutes ago.
She was moving with the “dragons”, and she had taken a direct hit from a “player”.
“- [Share]”
She muttered, sharing her vision with the “dragons”, and looked for a good place to rest.
There was something glittering in front of her eyes.
A gold coin.
“…Bad!”
She shuddered and clenched her teeth. She had no choice but to use No. 4 as a shield.
Clang!
The four flying dragons were enveloped by a flash of light.
“Guaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
No. 4’s death cry. The smell of burning filled her nose.
She had no choice but to land on the road below. At that moment, she also crushed a few “zombies” under her feet.
“HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Serves you right!”
A shrill laugh echoed in Momoka’s ears.
The girl who stood in front of the “dragons” with a defiant smile was short and had a cowboy hat for children on her head. She was a hobbit.
“You guys are persistent, huh…”
“We’re the type who pay back our debts!”
She used [Skill Appraisal] as a matter of course…
Job: Gambler
Level: 62
Skills: [Coin Toss (Divine Skill)], [Luck V], [Natural Healing (Strong)], [Skin Strengthening], [Bone Strengthening], [Hunger Resistance (Strong)], [Skill Appraisal], [Karma Appraisal], [Achievement Condition Reference], [Fire Magic I-III], [Water Magic I-III], [Lightning Magic I-III], [Healing Magic I-VII], [Fate Manipulation], [Negotiation Skills (Death God Level)], [Dream Dice Roll], [Reversal of Fortune], [Roulette Shot], [Swindle (Advanced)]
This might be a bit troublesome.
It was a pattern that wasn’t in the “strategy guide”.
“I’ll give you one last warning. If you turn back now, we won’t chase you.”
“Don’t be stupid!”
Then, another “player” appeared from behind.
A girl in a blazer. …She was a normal human being.
Job: Magician
Level: 43
Skills: [Martial Arts Skills (Advanced)], [Finishing Move I], [Natural Healing (Strong)], [Skin Strengthening], [Bone Strengthening], [Hunger Resistance (Strong)], [Skill Appraisal], [Fire Magic I-V], [Water Magic I-II], [Lightning Magic I-IV], [Healing Magic I-III], [Light Magic I-IV], [Dark Magic I-V], [Magic Control V], [Magic Barrier II]
“You are, …the enemy of Asuki-chan!”
“Huh…”
Why did it have to be such a hassle?
But, – maybe it was inevitable.
That’s how hard it was for “players” to understand each other.
They all think they’re special beings chosen by God.
Even though they’re not.
Even though they know it’s not true.
They’re just ordinary souls who happened to win the lottery.
Why can’t they understand that?
“[Nebula]”
As she chanted, a rope of light was born in her palm.
“…Tch! Hey, Mai! Come on…”
“Got it!”
In an instant, the rope of light bounced at a speed far beyond human reflexes, and the “gambler”’s small neck flew in the air.
“…Huh?”
The “magician” girl watched it blankly, not knowing what had happened.
She didn’t have time to regret it.
It was the least she could do.
The snake-like rope of light wrapped around the back of the “magician”’s head, – and crushed it like a tomato. Brain matter splattered everywhere.
“…Haah”
She sighed deeply in front of the two “players” who had stopped moving.
It wasn’t as bad as I thought.
The “gambler” might have been more troublesome if she had thought more about how to fight…
But she relied too much on her own power, even though she didn’t have any [Defense] or [Magic Resistance] skills.
When you’re a “player”, you feel like you’re the protagonist of a story.
You can’t imagine yourself being killed like a bug.
That’s why this happens.
…And.
As she thought that,
There was a sound of something kicking the ground.
She looked and saw another “player”.
“Ah…ah…”
A girl about middle school age. She had fallen on her butt, and was sitting on the spot.
The ground was wet. She seemed to have wet herself.
Just in case, she used [Skill Appraisal].
“…Hmm”
It wasn’t worth talking about. Level 14. A newbie. She didn’t even have a job yet.
“Hi, hi…”
“Begging for your life?”
“…Huh?”
“Why don’t you try begging for your life?”
There was a long silence.
Then, the girl opened her mouth.
“I…I haven’t killed anyone yet…I haven’t done anything bad…”
“Yeah, and?”
“I, I, I’m a normal girl. I like Matsumoto-kun from Arashi, and I like TV, and, and, and, I also like comedians like Ariyoshi-san. I’m a normal girl. I don’t do anything bad…I won’t do anything bad from now on either…”
“Oh. That’s a coincidence, I also like Ariyoshi Hiroiki quite a bit.”
“Ri, right…Ariyoshi-san’s shows are always good, aren’t they…!”
“But, no.”
She smiled.
“No. 1, No. 2, No. 3. – It’s time for dinner.”
“Sto, stop!!”
In an instant, the “dragons” that Momoka controlled jumped like springs and surrounded the nameless “player”.
There was a sound of cracking hard crackers as they bit.
“Pl…ea…se…stop…plea…se…”
She turned her back on the voice and sighed.
“I hate liars.”
What a pain.
I hope “teacher” doesn’t find out about this.
She looked at her watch.
It’s been about a week since then.
“I’ve achieved some results, maybe it’s time to go back?”
