Volume 10 - CH 9

Kuromaku Gainen is Pleased

No good….

Richiho Aisa really disappeared.

I asked around about her in her class but the only reply I got back was [Who?]……

.

Frustrated, I smack open the door to the literature club room.

The door opened with a *Bam!*.

.

.

.

.

“Woah!? What, What!?”

.

.

The girl who took the form of Kuromaku Gainen shouted in surprise.

As I thought, if I can’t find Concept-san in her class then she would be here since she made it her base of operation.

.

.

“Hey!? People usually knock first right!?”

“Didn’t you just sneak into my room and read my notebook the other day!? If you want to talk manner then learn to knock first!”

“Gununununu, t, taking that tone against God………..”

.

.

She said as she glared at me.

Unlike her Ennoia-version, Gainen-version has fair white skin and black hair.

.

.

“Kuhah! So, what do you want, Child of Man.”

“You have no dignity left in my eyes even if you try to put on air alright!?”

“None!?”

“Also, naming yourself Gainen(Concept), calling people by their full name, no normal girl does that!”

“…….Ehhh? I(Uchi) never did that though~? H, Hideyori must have misheard me right?”

“Why are you changing the way you talk now…….”

.

.

Rather, isn’t that the way Sakuya talks?

After that, I take a seat on the chair facing Gainen-san.

Perhaps understanding that I wish to talk, Gainen-san also sits down.

.

.

“Kuhah! What’s wrong, Hideyori? You need something from me?”

“Eh? You’re sticking with that character!?”

“You need something from me?”

.

.

She really intended to go with this huh.

It’s because you act like this that the players treated you as a cute little girl instead of a God you know……..”

.

.

“………what did you do to Richiho Aisa?”

“KuHaHaHa! It was unfortunate but I removed her heart and her existence was already erased from this world. It’s a shame really, she was a good child.”

.

.

Gainen-san said with a pleased smile on her face.

I know that she’s a character with a special position in the story but I never expected Ennoia to just erase Aisa like that…….

.

.

“Kuhah! Here, my treat”

.

.

Two cups of coffee appeared on the desk between us.

Her power really is convenient huh.

Being a God is a cheat after all.

.

.

“Drink up. It’s the espresso thing you like, Hideyori.”

“Who would willingly drink your coffee!? You probably added poison or something nefarious to it anyway……”

“There’s no such thing…… I wouldn’t resort to something so underhanded right……what a nasty man……”

“Eeh…..? You gouged out someone’s heart and erased their existence but I’m the nasty one…….?”

.

.

Gainen-san looked at me with a disgusted look but I don’t have any plans to touch that coffee.

There’s no way I would take that black substance I’m not even sure is made from coffee beans into my body.

It does smell like coffee so I’m tempted to drink it but I restrained myself.

.

.

“FINE! MORE FOR ME! HMPH, I DON’T CARE ABOUT YOU ANYMORE! BEH.”

.

.

Said Gainen-san as she sticks her tongue out to provoke me.

The gesture was so lovable as though it comes from a Galge heroine.

She then brings the cup up and elegantly sips the coffee.

.

.

“……….*COUGH! Cough, COUGH…… Wh, What’s this thing……Uweh……”

“Eeh……?”

.

.

Gainen-san immediately let go of the coffee cup and covered her mouth.

She was coughing with teary eyes.

.

.

“SO BITTER! WHAT EVEN IS THIS……? COUGH, COUGH…….”

“………”

“I NEED A SODA! A SODA!”

.

.

In an instant, the coffee cup changed into a cup of melon soda and she started drinking it through a straw.

.

.

“Phew……, I’m revived……..”

.

.

Gainen-san is enjoying her melon soda with tears of joy.

It seems she can’t handle coffee at all.

That was black after all, it’s no wonder she couldn’t take it……

Just add sugar and milk damn it.

.

.

“KuHaHaHa! It’s a shame but with Richiho Aisa gone, you can’t win against me anymore.”

“You think I can take you seriously after all that!?”

“Well, we will just have to wait for the judgment day then. Ah……, you’re supposed to die in 3 years time, aren’t you? KuHaHaHaHaHaHaHa!”

“Don’t get angry me! Don’t get angry!”

.

.

Since it doesn’t seem like I can get anything more from her, I stand up from my seat.

Ignoring Gainen-san who still can’t stop laughing, I left the club room.

.

.

“……….”

.

.

[[You’re supposed to die in 3 years time, aren’t you?]]

Gainen-san’s words echoed in my mind.

She brought up something I wish to forget.

.

.

This was a waste of time……

As I make my way back to class, the bell rings signaling the end of lunch break.

I quickened my pace and started running…….
