After we, the "Pure Ruby" squad fought the Cyclops, we decided to finish our hunter's quests and head back.
We didn't encounter any other strong enemies after that.
By the way, it seems like Cyclops would fall under a C rank monster. So only C ranked hunters or above could take subjugation quest for them.
Which means, it would be a problem if we were able to defeat them.
So we decided to say we just found the corpse.
It's just so we could avoid making a fuss. If a bunch of newly admitted students killed a group of Cyclops, it will definitely turn some heads.
We were able to sell all of the extra materials we collected.
So that is about 12 gold coins per-day.
We were out for about 9 days in total, so that is 108 Gold coins we acquired.
Then along with the Cyclops we killed, it added 8 gold coins on top of that.
Leading to our total earning of 116 gold coins.
Divided for 4 people, each of us got 29 gold coins.
Just in a week and a bit longer, I earned about 290,000 Yen(2,700 USD.)
That's a really good haul.
What really made the difference was my storage. We could just collect anything valuable and not need to worry about carrying it along with us. It is truly a G.o.d's sent.
By the way, Rig stated she wanted to try and see how it is to make money on your own.
However she didn't want her portion of the money so it went to us four instead. Stating she didn't need it and it would be better for us to have it.
She must be getting a lot of money sent from her parent's. . .
Anyways. The Pure Ruby team has gotten off to a good start.
Now all that is left is school.
Ahh, Finally. . . Today will be the first day of school.
When I woke up I felt a presence on my right and left.
Wait, both sides?
So, there are two people?
". . .Huh? Rig?"
Yeah, that makes sense. I'd expect Rig to be here.
But who is the other one.
I looked over and saw.
"Kami-sama?. . ."
This is such a narrow bad as it is. And now I'm being sandwiched by Rig and Kami-sama.
It's so tight.
How did it get to this point?
I'm used to Rig sleeping in my bed already, but. . . when did Kami-sama get in here.
I looked over and saw Kami-sama's face.
(When she is quiet like this, she is pretty cute.)
For some reason I felt the urge to gently touch her silver hair.
It's pretty nice.
But why do I think she is cute!?
I'm starting to feel my face reddened.
(Well if you just look at her face, she is pretty cute.)
Although in retrospect, Kami-sama's annoying att.i.tude may have been because she never had friends that treated her well.
(If she just calmed down a little more, she would be able to make friends easily. It's not like she is a bad person. . .It's no good! I can't blame Kami-sama. Rig accepted me already, So I don't have any grudges against her. Even if she is awkward I should be kind. I should accept her!)
I stared at her face.
(I don't know if it will work out. . .but Kami-sama, I'm looking forward to our future.)
I smiled at her from the bottom of my heart.
Then she opened her eyes.
". . .Fufufu."
Kami-sama chuckled at me.
"W-When did you wake up?"
"Well~ I woke up when Yukii started sending me such a pleasant beam of strong thoughts. Okay?"
"Great. . ."
My face went red.
I covered my face with my pillow to try and hide it.
This person can read my mind.
"That's right. Now I know that Yukii really does care about me~♪"
"NOOOOO. It's too embarra.s.sing!. . ."
"Fufu, you can't beat a G.o.d."
As she said that, she stroked my head.
"Although, I'm sorry if I've been acting weird, I'm just having too much fun."
Suddenly her voice got serious.
". . .Kami-sama?"
"This world with Yukii is much more fun than I'd imagine it would be. . .But, I feel guilty that I'm enjoying it and Yukii sometimes doesn't."
"No. . .It's fine. It was made for you to enjoy it. So of course you would. It can't be helped."
Oh, I remember- – -I remember from my past life.
Worlds are created just for the amus.e.m.e.nt of the G.o.ds. Even my previous world, Earth. Brought a lot of pleasure to Kami-sama, just from the entertainment sector alone.
It's just that humans are tools to create entertainment for the G.o.ds.
"I'm a bit relieved if I'm honest. Kami-sama is not as unreasonable as I imagined a G.o.d would be."
I was genuinely scared that Kami-sama would do something awful. She could literally do anything. What would my existence be like if she was actually malicious, or even controlling.
But I'm actually free to do what I want. She allows me to do whatever even if it might go against her.
"I want to see Yukii be free. I always did."
Kami-sama then hugged me as she said that.
This is embarra.s.sing.
". . .Sigh, It's no good. I know I can't be your number one person. Yet I still do love you."
"W-Why are you saying something so embarra.s.sing? And what are you talking about a "number one person"?"
"Fufu. You don't know? It's because Yukii loves the young lady Rigurett."
"Eh!?"
What is she talking about? Why is she saying it like that?
"Rig is my best friend, so of course I would love her. She is very important to me."
"Ah, that's right. . .But I still can't be a better friend than Rigurett. It feels a little bit lonely."
Kami-sama had a very depressed expression.
She can't be faking it. She truly seems sad.
". . .Rig is one of my most important people, but you are also really important to me. So I don't want to see you so sad."
When I said that, Kami-sama gave me a still worried smile.
"I see. Thank you, Yukii."
Although those words felt hollow.
I was about to say something, when suddenly I felt Rig moving.
". . .What's wrong, Fari?"
It seems like she woke up.
But it's still pretty early, I wish she could sleep some more.
"Good morning, Rig."
"Yeah. . .Eh?"
Then she noticed Kami-sama and frowned.
"Kamille-sama. What are you doing with my Fari?"
"We were messing around."
As soon Kami-sama said that, Rig released a terrible killing intent.
The tension. . .It feels like the mock battle.
". . .I'll kill you."
"Y-You aren't serious right?"
"I'm dead serious."
". . .You really are jealous.~"
Kami-sama said that with a bitter smile.
"Young lady Rigurett, don't look at me like that. I've been watching Yukii since she was born."
"Yes, I know that."
"And recently I awoken Yukii's magical powers and was finally able to talk to her."
"So what?"
"10 years!? It's been 10 years! Do you know how hard it's been for me to watch Yukii for 10 years while not being able to talk or touch Yukii. How could you bear it? How would you react if you could never interact with Fari for 10 years, while at the same time she is in front of you the whole time!?"
"I. . .would commit suicide."
W-What. . .
I want Rig in my life for the rest of it. So please don't kill yourself.
"So you wouldn't be able to stand it? Right?"
"Yeah. . ."
"So why don't we share some skins.h.i.+p time with her?"
"Hmm, I do sympathies with you, but. . .It depends on the conditions."
After that, Kami-sama and Rig started a serious discussion.
And a "Fari Pact" was created. Also I had no say in it.
Rule number 1: Agreed upon members are allowed to freely have skins.h.i.+p with Fari.
Rule number 2: Skins.h.i.+p without the approval of other agreed upon members are prohibited.
Rule number 3: None of the previous rules apply when Fari grants the gift of skins.h.i.+p herself.
Rule number 4: If Fari does not consent, then the skins.h.i.+p must be ended immediately.
For the time being, it seems like my consent is needed. So I don't feel like I need to be against it.
"With that said. Are you ready Yukii?"
"Will you go along with this quietly?"
Then both of them got closer and closer to me.
"B-But if I hate you will stop, right?"
"Yes, but Fari wouldn't hate it if I request it, right?"
"Uuu."
Rig got a bulls eye.
Then Rig and Kami-sama sandwiched me in the middle of the bed. They continued to hug me, rub their cheeks with mine, and stroke my head until we had to get ready for school.
Translator here. Sorry for the slight delays on these pretty short chapters. Got busy and then got sick. But anyways here is a cute fluff chapter. Anyways the next chapters will be the first day of school. So who knows if any new characters will be introduced. I just didn't attach them because it's been awhile. And I'd prefer the school chapters to be all together. Next chapter bunch is probably going to be a long one though.
If you'd like to donate to me. Here is a link
