Chapter 99

Toaru Ossan no VRMMO Katsudouki

The next day, I logged in and checked the board where requests are posted in Himawari Pavilion.Uumu, as always, there arent any requests not aimed at parties, na. Like I thought, tomorrow Ill leave, because theres nothing good for me in this town. If it werent for the matter from yesterday, Id already have left, though, na

Walking through town, when I had bought herbs, vegetables, and seasonings and the like, there was a girl who was singing with harp in hand. You can tell its a woman despite the cloak because of that bulge up top and her voice.

Everyones smiling faces have been forgotten

Even though they had laughed so much

Simply smiling in fun times

Crying in sad times

Raging in times of frustration

Smiling in times of happiness.

Those simple things

Are forgotten in just a few years

Everyone and anyone, under the name of growing up

Hiding their expressions

Sticking on a mask(persona)

in the end becoming expressionless

Saying that this is what the world wants

Saying that this is how it works

At that moment, you who I had loved

your smiling face was splendid

your angry face was also cute

Even though it was that splendid you

That you also, before I knew it, donned a mask(persona) and your smiling face gradually disappeared

Is extinguishing your expressions being an adult?

Is staying cool-headed being an adult?

To me nothing is projected but a coward

Even though its the voice of this kind of me

That doesnt ring out through the bustling crowd

This is the truth

And that is way

I will remember

The smiling face of you from that time

The angry face

The crying face

When you meet the end of your lifespan

Quietly and naturally returning

Even after your soul rises to the heavens

I will continue to remember

Even if the whole world laughs at your life

I will remember with pride

That dazzling smiling face

That cute angry face when we fought

That sorrowful crying face when dreams were lost

Even when you are no longer here

My soul

As long as it will be permitted to stay in this world

That is why right now I am living

So that the fact that you have lived

Will not be forgotten by the world

We cannot return to that day,

But the memories of that day are just like it was yesterday

Within my heart

Forever

Until you return to heaven

Will be next to me always

The you from that day

Is even now the ruby in my heart

Red, warm

Sleeping warmly within my heart.

Come to think of it, there was a Musical Performance Skill, but I cant remember having seen anyone performing and singing yet. Playing as a minstrel is way too high a level for me, naa. While thinking that, I was watching the woman singing the song, but when that woman noticed me, she came slowly walking over.

You were listening to my song, right? Performance fee, please.

Her voice, different from her voice when singing, was an erotic voice. With this kind of person, going against her would be bad in a strange way. And also, its the truth that her song was done skillfully, so theres nothing I can do but obediently pay, huh? When I leave 100Glo in her outstretched hand, shes satisfied for now and puts it in her breast pocket.

And, I have 1 question for you, but

Do you have an older or younger sister? I was going to ask, but the woman w

earing the cloak in front of my eyes cut in.

My three sizes? From the top, its 102

When she said that, I physically blocked her mouth and stopped her.

Mmph mmph-! (what are you doing-!)

Purposefully heaving a huge sigh so she could see, I started talking.

Who asked you for that what I want to hear from you is if you have an older or younger sister, the type who doesnt really speak much.

In the first place, this was the reason I had increased the days I was staying in this tone by one day, after all. And the cloak the woman in front of me was wearing was literally exactly like the cloak of the girl from yesterday. Although their heights and proportions are different.

Aa, you are the human that Ane-san was talking about, ne; even though it seemed like it would be possible to draw you out by singing, to actually draw you out, ne~

You cant see her expression because of the cloak, but its easy to understand that shes laughing.

The talk seems like it will take a while, so should we move to a quieter place?

To these words of mine, the woman in front of me let out a Fuu-n?

To take me right away, its very

Before she could say the rest, I took out my harisen for the first time in a while and mercilessly smacked her with it.

O-w! What are you doing?!

Why dont you ask that uselessly large chest of yours?

Fu-n, I thought I was going to be taken somewhere; how boring, ne.

For some reason, the woman in front of me is taking offence in a strange direction.

You were singing a song like that, and now youre saying something like this.

Im borrowing the unopened bar part of Himawari Pavilions bar from the mistress once again to talk.

Well, whatever. I cant really talk about the details, but I received instructions to come to you.

A woman who easily gives up the information.

If you cant say than I wont ask to hear about the details, but why me?

My name is somewhat wellknown, but right now the number 1 well-known name would be Silver jii-san, I think.

Obviously because I wanted the man who seduced fairies to show me affection, right?

While drinking water, that kind of thing was said to me; what do I do?

Show you affection(kawaiiga-tte), nee. If its in the form of a german suplex, then I can do it I guess, ne.

So you want me to do sumo torture(KAWAIGARI)?

N,no, thats, even this Onee-san will pass on that

So threats work, huh? People who are listening would say its an unpardonable misinterpretation.

So, whats the real reason? Just what you can tell is fine.

I tried asking, but other than I was just told to go meet you~, the woman in front of me told me nothing else.

If its what I can say the hidden meaning is that you are the most famous name, perhaps?

Hidden meaning?

Are you talking about the forums?

I asked, but

I cant talk about anything more than this, ne for almost a hint, its not about that so-called forum. More than that I really cant say, so sorry, nee.

Avoiding the landmines ahead, this isnt going to be a talk where theres a large landmine waiting for me, right?

Maa, fine; it doesnt seem theres anything I can do about it, so I guess I cant do anything but wait until the time comes, although its not good to lose the initiative

For some reason, the woman who saw my fed up face laughed delightedly.

Its fine, when that time comes, this Onee-san will protect you! Onee-san is strong!

Saying that, she left. Is that the truth or not in actuality, the people who normally flutter around aimlessly but become strong in an instant when it comes to fighting do quite well in this world

Ill pray that such a time wont come Ive already had my fill of troublesome things, you know.

This foolish conversation ended in about 10 minutes.

I think my older sister also said it, but lets meet again, ne

And, throwing me a kiss she left; the mistress thoroughly made fun of me for that. After that, once again I helped out and waited on tables, then logged out. The next day, departing towards the Eastern Inner City, I left the Eastern Fortresstown behind.

A/n: For the song lyrics, I thought of something suitable in about 10 minutes and wrote it, but its my own creation.

Also, since I didnt think about how the song is sung, the length may be subtle, but please comment discretely on that.
