Vol 2 Prologue (1/2)
Prologue 1 - About hell and Purgatory
I don't need friends
I don't need cozy relationshi+ps
But yet, in a confined room
”Love you, love you, I love you ~ ♪”
My class passionately
What a pretense she was putting on
The skirt of her sailor uniform fluttered, and danced
Beforeearnestly, and Yuuyami Himi happily clapped her hands to the beat
We were in a karaoke box
I always thought of karaoke boxes as peaceful places, as where untroubled idiots sang their idiotic songs in an idiotic ht there against my will ———
”Hey! shi+nnosuke-kun, are you hyped?”
With a mic in one hand, Kiri winked at me
Himi and Yousuke shouted
””Yay!!””
I had absolutely no idea what that 'yay' was about To begin with, have I ever in my life uttered that idiotic exclamation, 'yay'? No, never Absolutely never In the first place, I have no idea what kind of enthusiasm a person must have to make that utterance
I averted my half-opened eyes in exasperation
Upon doing that, irade asfrorinned and said,
”Hey shi+nnosuke You should try to have more fun”
”It's because I' fun”
”Even though you say that, you're actually enjoying”
”I' myself Rather, it's horrible”
”Don't be shy Since your personality is so horrible and you seeht not know this, but”
With a mic in one hand, Kiri winked at me
”I still don't have any friends”
”You have us, right?”
”Your joke isn't funny”
”It was us, your good friends, ere the first to co to save you when you were in a bind earlier”
”Huh what, you're trying to uys don't you feel e that?”
”No, the one who's eht? In a karaoke box, the one who's trying to embarrass others is, on the contrary, the one who's embarrassed”
”shi+ro, it's okay to feel embarrassed”
”E ~”
””
”E ~”
This tiht before me said it in unison with shi+ro The two of theave theht to myself ”I'll kill them the next time we enter a labyrinth”
But it was iust,
”Jeez isn't this bullying?”
As I said that, the big-breasted, beautiful, high school idol-like girl who had been singing and dancing, Kiryuu Kiri, reached the hook of her song and as it entered the break, she beckoned to me and said,
”C'ether!”
”Absolutely no way”
I expressed my resolution
However, the cruel enemy who knew no mercy continued his attack
shi+ro said,
”All right, it's your turn next As your good friend, I've already entered a song that you should be able to sing”
”Huuh!?”
With a jerk, he passed ht leg injured during the last labyrinth raid I couldn't use any real strength The mic was pressed on me
”T-This is a joke right!? Hey Gunjou, you should also say so to these fools”
Seeking help, I turned irl in this karaoke box who should feel e
Next to me on my left, Mizuiro Gunjou
She should feel the same way I do
Reason being: She is an elite ician who's successfully raided several Eternal Labyrinths and already has more than 20 corporate sponsors
And in this world, one ants to obtain such strength shouldn't have even a second to spare for cozy relationshi+ps
Because in this broken, insane world that cannot be saved at all, obtaining overwhele price and e sacrifices
””
That's why Gunjou should feel the same kind of exasperation as me My cos like comrades or friends, but at that moment I looked to Gunjou for help as a fellow exasperated comrade
I looked at her, thinking: You should also say so
However, her strong-willed, al intently in the direction of the dancing Kiri with envy and a temptation
”What, you want to sing as well!?”
”Ehh?”
Gunjou looked at me in surprise It's easy to see that her cheeks were flushed
”There's no way that would happen, right!? Erh out with these brats, just so you know! Erh that badly, then I have no choice but to sing but-but, if you don't tellthat badly, then I definitely won't sing Get it!?”
Upon hearing that, wearing a gentle s selection remote and said,
”Erh voice very badly”
Gunjou immediately took the remote
” I don't have a choice, huh~ It's because you really want to hear et it? I really don't want to sing, just so you know!”
””
What the fk rong with her?
I didn't feel the need to listen to her words any longer damn traitor Trash My foe I knew it, ”co to cozy relationshi+ps Even if it was for an instant, I was a fool for believing there was someone as like me
Kiri's song ended
