At the store where adventurer equipment is sold, I asked Ashley for a tool bag. The bag can hold objects whose volume is larger than the bag itself, and is a classic example of an item appearing in young-adult fantasy novels.
âHey, Nii-chan, you came to a store for adventurers, yet you donât even know how to use the tool bag!â
He had cat ears, but the large manâs voice was deep and loud⌠[not cute at all] And the cat-eared giant took a small cloth bag that had been lined up on the counter and threw it lightly to me.
âCome on, itâs a tool bag. It will open the storage space if you just put in a little bit of magic. Youâre an adventurer, right? Can you do it?â
I caught the bag and the mouth of it hung open, though the storage space didnât seem to be as well, because I could see the cloth bottom.
I guess that means I need to put magic into it? How do I do that? Surely I should be able to⌠But neither my original world nor VMB had such a thing. Would I even be able to use it?
âN? Whats wrong, donât tell me, you donât know how to use magic? No, itâs probably that you are just stupid?â
Ashley seemed to be upset by this and opens her eyes wide. She pulls on my sleeve to indicate we should leave this place. [KAWAII DESU]
I donât know what is wrong with this cat-eared giant, I donât know how to use magic and he simply declares that I am an idiot.
âGA~AHHAHH! This is probably the first time Iâve seen a bastard as stupid as you! Truly the first time! What an idiot!â
âYes! This is the first time, leader!â\n
âAlthough they can be an adventurer with motivation, an idiot isnât useful, theyâll just get their fellow adventurers killed!â
Oi, Oi, what is with this course of events? I head something before about stupid, but what are they saying?
I canât understand what this threesome is laughing at. Ignorant, stupid and foolish, and didnât know how to use the tool bag is what they said? But I just donât know how to use the tool bag. And Iâll kill my fellow companions with my incompetence?
My mind was full of questions, but I was brought back to reality by Ashley tugging on my sleeve. Ashley grasped on my sleeve and pulled it while trembling.
âYou guys, come on! Even without magic, Black-san has the power to fight! He isnât incompetent!â
âHaa? What did you say, young lady?! Youâre this dunceâs party member? It must be difficult! Having to take care of him and do all of the work! How about you leave this blockhead and join my party? Break up with this stupid bastard! This stupid bastard canât satisfy you at night? GAHAAHAA!â
âThatâs a good idea! Leaderâs body strengthening skills are enough to fight an orc!â
âOf course it is! Leader is way more competent than this magic-less idiot!â
âI refuse! Black is way more competent than you, and there is no need to leave!âAh, perhaps, she isnât trembling in fear, but anger? âIn addition, to insult someone simply for having no magical power? Itâs just soâŚ.â
âHoh? What did you say! You canât see that I am more reliable? Hey, Dunce! Letâs go outside! Senpai will teach you a little something about magic. If you lose, Iâll be teaching this young lady all night!â
âHaa~ This kind of thing didnât happen at the general guild, people trying to assault meâŚ. (then again, this is a different worldâŚ.).â\nâStop mumbling! Come with me!
Ashley, the cat-eared giant, and I left the store and went off the main street to a side road. I became aware of the Rat and Badger faced guys behind us, likely to keep us from escaping. After walking for a little, the cat-eared giant stopped and turned around.
âThis place is good. Donât use any weapons and kill this nuisance, we wont get in trouble.âIn other words, you want to say it isnât a crime if itâs just injuries?
âAshley, in this city, if you hurt an opponent in a fight, what happens?â
âIf adventurers, commoners and craftsmen fight, the adventurer gets punished. But if adventurers kill each other, it is almost ignored.â Ashley returned an answer in a low voice. âSorry for the inconvenience.â
âCome on, you stupid bastard! What do you think youâre doing, donât you think itâs time you stopped relying on others!â
The cat-eared giant spread his hands in a pose that said âBring it onâ. It this a hallucination? his eyes glowed red and his giant body swelled. I wonder if this is that body enhancement magic.
What to do now⌠To be honest, I am just a simple FPS player. I didnât go to a gym or do martial arts and have some special skill passed down like some secret grappling technique. I have never even fought in my original world. I wasnât a tall child, and had little physical strength, so I wasnât good at ball games or at athletics and sports.
The cat-eared giant already said they wouldnât use weapons, but I donât think I could beat the man in a battle of fists. Then again, just because he said he wouldnât use one doesnât mean I canât. I plan to end this farce quickly.
I pull the Five-seveN out of the holster and switch off the safety, and then swiftly shot both of the cat-eared giantâs knees. The recoil from shooting from the shoulder wasnât that much, and with both knees destroyed, the cat-eared giant fell to the ground with intense pain. Behind me, the rat and badger faced guys rushed over towards the cat-eared giant.
âIDEEEEE!â
\nHowever the ăMa nukeă cannot make use of them at all. I understand Black-sanâs fighting ability, but to continue living here will veryâŚâŚâ
Ashley then cast her gaze downwards. Indeed, I certainly was not born in this world, and as I fell to here, brought along with me the power of VMB.
The fact that I have no magic is no excuse, I am a foreign alien in this world. In this world, Iâm not only a foreign object.
FN Five-seveN
