Chapter 120 - INTERLUDE 18: PLAYER OR NPC? (1/2)

While Kuroha was getting his rock off and taking the v.i.r.g.i.nity of another beautiful but ”slightly” crazy girl, an important discussion was taking place...

Somewhere in the middle of the town in a high-class restaurant, two people were eating slowly.

One of them was a man with green hair, while the other was a seemingly young girl with golden hair.

As many should have understood, those two were the two of the four greatest a.d.u.l.ts' influence on Kuroha.

Sir Nighteye and Milienia.

The other two who could influence Kuroha were All Might and Rei. Rei was absent for obvious reasons and right now All Might didn't even have enough time to sleep, much less participate in such a feast.

One particularity was the silence. The whole restaurant was empty. It wasn't because it wasn't popular but simply because this restaurant belonged to him in the first place and he had reserved all the first floor.

He wasn't interested in buying land and building in the past. After all, after his death, no one was there to inherit it. But since he got a son, and might officially get another one soon. He decided that there's no way he was going to let the taxes f.u.c.k them.

Milienia posed her fork before taking a sip of the wine before slowly tasting it. Then, after putting it back,

”I refuse.”

She simply said this and didn't continue. Nighteye wasn't surprised. He was on the verge of begging when Milienia stopped him. She put her elbow on the table and leaned while supporting her head with her hand. While doing so she used her finger to twirl around the glass of wine now empty

”Listen well, boya, remember that I am not under your order. Do not misunderstand me. The only reason I left Rome and came to Japan was that playing the hero there was becoming boring. Your proposition was simply a new way to have some enjoyment. After all, I always wanted to train a user of One For All, but they all died too soon. By the time I found All Might he was already fully formed. No way I would have passed the occasion you sent to my doorstep. But that's all.”

”But…”

”No but… I will only ever move for one reason. Whether it's interesting or not. An uprising of a villain is sadly really boring once you have seen it for more than ten times.”

”You…”

”What me? Look. I like you quite a bit. Thanks to you, I finally managed to find something that I thought I would never find. But, even though I like you. That's all. I already stopped playing the Hero. I have no interest in doing so again.”

”Do you see this world...as nothing more than a game?”

Nighteye hand clenched in silence. Milienia observed but simply smiled,

”Do you want the truth?”

Nighteye hesitated before nodding,

”Life in my eyes is really a shitty game. A game that can't be beaten. But still a game. For me. There's no difference between most people in this world and NPC. Do you care about NPC when you play a game? You guys, on the other hand, are just SSR rank NPC. The kind of NPC you care for and never want to suffer. But in the end. SSR class NPCs are still NPCs. Even if you guys died. At most, I would be sad for a while before going to find another SSR class.”

Nighteye was stunned as he watched this woman say such a cold and merciless words in such a calm way. A morbid curiosity momentarily swept away his outrage.
