(Megumin's POV)
I ran away from the clinic after I learned the truth about Harukin's birth from Doc.
I ran very fast, going to the direction of the our magic item shop to hear the truth about my twin brothers real origin from my parents mouth itself.
"Megumin! Wait for me!"
I heard Yunyun yelling behind me but I ignored her.
I remembered Harukin saying 'Nee-san' several times to me while smiling since when we're still small until we grew up and arrived on this age.
The two of us are always hold each other hands when we went to take a walk everywhere. We don't even let go each others hands we sleep together as we're having hard time sleeping without each other's company.
I just don't know how will I treat with Harukin from now anymore after I known that we're not twin siblings and have no blood relations.
I arrived in front of our magic item shop then I immediately slid the door open and entered inside,
"Mother! Father! Are you there?!"
Suddenly, I saw the two of them lying on the ground, completely exhausted from overworking on the shop.
I immediately went towards them and checked condition.
Father spoke weakly,
"Megumin... Since when our shop became an all in one restaurant... ugh..."
Then he passed out and sleeping.
I went to mother and tried to wake her up by shaking her.
"Mother! Are you alright?!"
Mother opened her eyes and weakly glanced at me,
"Megumin... I leave Komekko to you... ugh..." she said as she also passed out from tiredness.
"Mother?!" I yelled.
Harukin just left this morning and we're already in this situation.
"Megumin..."
I heard Yunyun voice behind me as she arrived here after me.
Suddenly a young woman wearing a office uniform and eyeglasses went inside the shop, she scanned around the shop then her dropped on Hyoizaburoo who's lying on the ground,
"Hyoizaburoo-san! Today is the deadline of the payment of your remaining debt."
I saw Father sweating profusely but he's not moving.
The young woman frowned at him,
"So, you're not going to respond to me. Then..."
She snapped her fingers,
"Take all the money on the counter." she ordered.
Suddenly, several men went inside the shop and took all the bag of money in the counter. They putted it on top of the table and counted the coins per sack.
Mother and Father woke up, they kneeled in front of the young woman and pleaded not to take all their money.
But----
"As expected of Harukin, he really fully paid your debt on time. The money we collected here from your shop is exactly as much as your remaining debt."
"..."
Father and Mother was silent when they heard what she said.
The young woman glanced again with a disappointed look at my kneeling Father.
"Making your little child work to deal with your large debt, do you have any shame? You're really worst father."
Father was stunned in shock as the young woman went out of our shop together with her men and our money.
All of us including Yunyun are staring at father with disappointment.
Father jumped then kneeled on the floor, and bowed his head until it touched the ground.
He performed a Dogeza and yelled,
"I'm very sorry!"
(Harukin's POV)
In front of me, there was a adorable little girl floating with angry expression. She has a small body, giving her the look of a fairy. She has thick white hair cropped above her shoulders, a dark purple eyes and fair skin.
She wears a long-sleeved white jumper and a night-blue cape flecked with stars, and white stockings with white boots. Rose-gold embroidery and shapes are attached to her jumper, boots, and sleeves.
Her accessories are a dark purple hairpin, almost black, and a rose-gold crown that levitates above her head as though it was a halo.
(Pic here<<<)
"Well, I'm sorry about that but... who are you anyway?" I asked her.
The floating little girl made a proud expression and spoke,
"My name is Paimon! I'm the cutest fairy sprite there is and I'll be sticking close to you in your actual adventure as your navigation guide."
Then... this little girl is just like a floating map made of cinnamon roll.
"...Is that all of it?"
"That's right." she responded.
"What else can you do?" I asked her again.
"I can sing... Laaah..." Paimon said as she started to sing.
"I can dance..." she said while swaying her body around as she danced.
"Most of all, I'm cute as hell." she proudly said.
I just stared at her with blank expression and said,
"Then... other than being a map, your totally useless."
"What did you just say?!" she became angry again to me.
She went towards me while floating and pounced my head several times.
Few minutes later, I caught my sixth fish from the river.
"I think this will be enough for us."
I putted the fish in the pail filled small amount of water.
I glanced to Paimon and said,
"Let's go Paimon, Wiz-san might be awaken by now."
"Yes!" she responded.
Walking back to our camp while she floats around me.
Something has been bothering me for a while when this little girl appeared to me from the my system.
"Paimon?"
"Yes?" she glanced at me.
"Since you're been locked in my system for a long time, do you know anything about me?"
"Nope, not just anything, it's everything about you." she answered.
I was sweating profusely when I heard her answer.
"Like..."
She squinted her eyes while looking at me and started to talk,
"Hmmm... then I shall start from your identity... Your real name in your past life is Arata Shouta, 17 years old, you're half foreigner and half Japanese because your mom is from europe while your father is a japanese. You have one elder sister and one little sister living with you. When your parents died from airplane crash, you decided to quit school and work from different kinds of part time jobs just to support your graduating big sister and sickly little sister.
Just after your big sister graduated from her university, you died by being rolled over by a oil tanker truck. After that, the goddess gave you abilities and send you in this world."
(A/N: An oil tanker for you! by Vintage Dio.)
"Wait! How did you even know that?"
I was surprised that she even knows about my past life.
"Since the system is a part of your soul, and I'm a part of the system, it's means that I'm also a part of you. I can even read what's on your mind or what are you thinking if I tried to do it." she answered proudly.
This floating little girl is dangerous.
If she can read my mind, everything about me is going to be exposed by her.
"You might be saying in your mind while looking at a woman's ċhėst that 'Flat is Justice', 'Medium is Premium', and 'Oppai is Truth' but in the end, your fetish is yelling 'Thicc thɨġhs saves lives'." she continued.
I was very shocked of what she said about me. She didn't not just read what I think and what's on my mind, but also what's deep inside of me.
I can't believe that she can even read that on me.
I was trembling.
Suddenly, I grabbed her arm and said with a gentle smile,
"Do you want to bath on a boiling hotpot?"
