Chapter 281 Shea-san is a Kind Person (1/2)

To have lunch with Shea-san, I’m walking with her through the city but…… The troubling matter is that the conversation doesn’t get lively at all.

Of course, this is partly due to Shea-san’s negative filter, but more than that, it’s probably because I haven’t been able to gauge Shea-san’s character yet.

To be honest, I still don’t know what kind of person Shea-san is or what kind of personality she has. In fact, Shea-san’s personality is difficult to read.

I don’t know if she doesn’t think of me that well or not, but she’s indeed being hostile towards me, is what I thought, but she suddenly gave me those snacks and a roundabout apology…… I really can’t understand her.

Following Shea-san’s back as she silently walked a few distance in front of me, I was looking at her back and thought of initiating some kind of conversation, when Shea-san suddenly stopped.

[Is something the matter?]

[…………………….]

As I tilted my head and asked her, Shea-sand didn’t answer my words and only slightly turned her face towards a direction. Out of the corner of her eye is the figure of a young girl who was buying a snack that resembles an ice cream from a food cart and has a happy smile on her face.

Is something the matter with that young girl? As I was thinking that, the young girl ran past us Shea-san and I with a happy expression on her face…… At that moment, I saw what looked like a glowing line on the young girl’s body flash in an instant.

[!? S- Shea-san, that is…… What is that?]

[………………..]

Before I knew it, Shea-san was holding an ominous-looking scythe in her hands.

Looking at Shea-san’s current stance, no matter how I look at it, feels like she has already swung that scythe, and I hurriedly looked at the young girl from earlier but…… It doesn’t seem like her body was particularly cut or anything like that.

Shea-san takes a glance at the flustered me, before she makes her scythe disappear and starts walking as if nothing happened.

[……My scythe can sever misfortune.]

[……Eh?]

[You can just think of these misfortunes as things that brought people unhappiness.]

[Errr, does that mean that something like that was about to happen to the young girl earlier?]

[……Misfortune is everywhere. These misfortunes can be big or small.]

Does that mean it’s something like how those people banish bad luck? Did she do that to that young girl who was just there?

[……If I just unreasonably sever a great misfortune, it may affect them. However, if it’s just a small misfortune, there wouldn’t be a problem if I just sever it.]

[……Incidentally, what would happen to the young girl earlier if you didn’t do anything?]

[I dunno? I can’t see fate just like God of Fate-sama could. I could just see misfortunes…… I wouldn’t know what would happen unless I see it happen, but with a misfortune of that size, well…… It will probably just be something to the extent that she will trip and drop her snack.]

It seems that Shea-san can’t see fate, but she can see what could be called as omens of misfortune, and she had severed the misfortune that was inside the young girl just now.

If she hadn’t done so, the young girl would have suffered a small misfortune such as tripping on a pebble.

[……Then, Shea-san helped that young girl……]

[Don’t misunderstand. Other than the people they have blessed, the Gods don’t just help every single person she meets.]

[Eh? H- However, just now……]

[……I was just doing my daily swinging exercise, and that brat just happened to be walking through there. That’s all there is to it!]

[Eh? Ah, yes……]

[……Hmph.]

That’s a really forced excuse she did there but, I see, I guess that’s just like Shea-san…… I may have misunderstood her.

There was some harshness in her speech and conduct, but she’s unlike the Gods who wouldn’t help just about anyone…… I could clearly see it now after she gently helped that young girl. She’s a kind person at heart.

Well, I’ll just keep it to myself, because Shea-san would probably get mad at me if I say that out loud.

Shea-san brought me to one of the restaurants and going inside, we sat down.

Since Shea-san is the No. 5 of the God Realm and the top of the High-ranking Gods, I thought that there may be a commotion that would happen with our arrival but…… It seems that Shea-san is someone who basically works behind the scenes, and since she doesn’t appear that much, her face is hardly known by the public.

So, even if she’s sitting on a chair in a normal restaurant like this, she doesn’t need to cast Recognition Inhibition Magic on herself.

[……Order whatever you want.]

[Ah, yes.]

While looking at the restaurant which somehow has an ethnic feel to it, I looked at the menu that Shea-san handed me.

……Doesn’t all of them look spicy? What kind of shop is this? A restaurant specializing in spicy food?

It seems that the hot and spicy snack that Shea-san gave me before was really her favorite, so I decided to order the relatively milder one from the menu that was filled with spicy looking stuff.

When the waitress came to take my order, Shea-san and I each ordered a dish……

[You are free to choose how spicy the food in our restaurant, so would you like it to be adjusted?]

[……100 times more.]

[Eh?]

[Eh?]

Hearing Shea-san’s words as she said that so matter-of-factly, both me and the waitress reflexively stiffened.

[……100 times more.]

[U- Ummm, I beg your pardon, ma’am…… B- But we’re a restaurant that sells food that are already spicy enough. I’m not saying that it’s impossible for us but…… Ummm, are you really alright with that?]

[There’s no problem. 100 times spicier for me.]

[U- Understood…… Would you also like 100 times spicier, sir?]

[N- No, just regular spiciness……]

When the waitress asks me, clearly shaken by Shea-san’s order, I tell her that I’m fine with normal spiciness. 100 times spicier, are you freaking kidding me!? Eating something like that would make my taste buds disappear.

And as the waiter bowed her head and left, for some reason, Shea-san looked at me with a surprised expression on her face and muttered.

[……You, could it be…… You’re one of those people with a sweet tooth?]

[……………….]
