Chapter 83.1
Mob Protagonist ~ Mob in the Novel But There is a Problem
Chapter 83.1. Weâre Moving Out!
-Miuâs POV-
Weâre going to move. We didnât have to do it, but we did.
Whose fault is it? The one who lured our family, who had found a little happiness and were living peacefully, into a world where evil spirits of the mountains and rivers live.
It was Lokiâs fault. Yes, it was Lokiâs fault. Itâs always good to blame Loki for bad things.
Takano Miu decided to think so in front of the most wonderful family in the world. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âCanât we just go to â¦â¦?â
The Takano family is flying through the air in a magically armored limousine that has been given [Float] to move. The soft, sofa-like chairs and orange juice from the refrigerator provided are not distracting. I should be a little more excited since Iâm flying in the sky, but Iâm a depressed person.
While escaping from reality, I look out the window of the car Iâm riding in and feel lonely as I watch my home fade below me. My guilt is at its maximum. Iâm a game player who does not feel guilty when I kill bad guys, but Iâm relieved I can have normal feelings.
I was thinking a bit that I had become a monster or something. Just thinking about it, I feel that my existence doesnât bother me, which I think itâs because of my game specification.
You see, game characters donât get tired of thinking during the game why Iâm a game character, right? Thatâs why I donât feel pain at all. Well, that may be the greatest weakness of Takano Miu.
The thing that scares me the most is that people often tell me in old novels that people like me are a monster at heart and Iâm ordinary humans on the outside.
With a sigh, Mii-chan fixes her silvery gray hair with her hand, her beautiful sapphire ice-blue eyes glaze over, and she lets out a sigh of boredom. Is this the right way to use boredom?
[Yes, thatâs right. I think that your acting-like attitude is your problem. Young Lady.]
The one-eyed Grandpa, projected in the air, says to Mii-chan, who is trying to look cute by pressing her puffy cheeks against the window, with a piercing look in his eyes. Iâm shocked to hear Grandpa Odin call me an actor.
[Eh, whatâs wrong with my acting?]
Why? Iâm not acting at all. Mii-chanâs cheeks puffed out in frustration. Iâm Takano Miu who lives her life according to her heart.
[Hmâ¦â¦â¦Youâre right. When you put it that way. But then⦠Iâm not sure what you mean by that. Perhaps you have two sides to you. And yet, the fact that there is no personality disorder is also a young ladyâs characteristic.]
While handling his white beard, Odinâs eyes light up with amusement. I donât need any more traits, for my part. Surprisingly, Iâm not human.
Iâm half-eyed, but Odin doesnât care, heâs just making guesses.
[Iâm sure that Takano Miu, who lives in this world, is a fusion between the original girl living in this worldâs personality, and you, the player who controls the game character, exist. The attitude she shows to her parents isnât an act, but sheâs just being stupid like a normal kid.]
[I donât think you need the last rating of stupid, do you? Iâm a lovely, talented, family-oriented girl, Mii-chan]
[If sheâs not stupid, sheâs too young. â¦â¦Hmmm. Maybe she is too young. As long as sheâs in My Room, sheâs immortal.]
I can agree with Odinâs new hypothesis, though. Iâm not an idiot. But Iâve never agonized over my past life and wondered why Iâm doing this. I see, itâs not that this body is dragging my spirit. Itâs Miuâs original personality.
Iâm going to pretend I didnât hear about immortality. It only makes me uneasy. What if I stay small? No, it would be better if I donât go into My Room. Well, if you think about it, it will have some effect. I guess I donât have to worry about it.
No wonder I thought I could enjoy my life with Yamiyo. Is this why I didnât feel guilty ⦠about playing the clever Mii-chan and somehow cheating the people around me? I was disappointed that âCha Ramenâ meant a set of fried rice and ramen, but Miuâs personality was disappointed with it. That makes sense. So it wasnât my fault.
[In other words, the fact that the two personalities are fused and never contradict each other is the result of magic. Iâm curious about how the young lady was born, but there are many other things I want to look into now. That can wait for later. But more importantly, donât treat Geri and Freki so poorly, okay?]
[Itâs terrible to call me that. Okay. Iâll take good care of the puppies, donât worry.]
I got on my knees to curl my petite body around Grandpa Odin, asked him for a favor, and borrowed it. This was necessary. Even though Kongo-oneesanâs group and the old Martini guys were depressed because they thought I was Mii-chan, the delinquent, going out in the middle of the night and didnât notice me.
Is it because this world is the novelâs world? No, I donât know if the guards in my previous life were the same, but they were extremely strong in the physical aspect. In other words, they are the brawny type.
Theyâre strong against assailants, but I donât think they can handle enemies who sneak in. Like Frigg-oneesan, they wouldnât even notice me sneaking out.
[Well, I think this will help me to notice enemies who sneak in. Geri and Freki seem to have the presence detection.]
A new monitor floats in the air, and with a bewitching smile on her face, Frigg joins the conversation.
[Hmmm. It would be strange for a wolf not to be able to âdetectâ presence. Itâs only natural. You couldnât see the status of the two animals in the game, could you?]
[They were only in name as an auto-attack feature. I couldnât see their status].
Grandpa Odin is right. Geri and Freki are the only accessories of Odin. They were not in the party frame, but âGeri and Freki attacked too!â would appear on the logs. They appear after Grandpa Odin attacks our enemies, and then leave off-screen. It was an expression often used in games. In other games, merchant armies or dancing armies appear and attack the enemy, right? It was the same kind of thing. They were mysterious, and we didnât even know where they were.
