Living as an Unemployed in Another World

21 – 2. The Path of the Dagger (2)

2.

Time is limited for everyone.

Even though there are dwarves who live over 300 years old, gnomes called fairies, elves and dragons that don’t technically have the concept of death, as well as monsters, considering that there are races that have a longer lifespan than humans——I, a human, can only It may be a bit funny to discuss finitude with a lifespan of 80 years or so, but the fact does not change even if the length of life they have is different.

Nothing is forever. 16 Years in the original world, 1 year with the witch, 4 years in the inn…… Although the density of time may be different, absolute time itself flows steadily within a finite frame. I’ve been realizing that truth recently.

What are you talking about all of a sudden? That’s not obvious Just a while ago, that is, about two weeks ago, it was about going through hardships to go to Dungeon El.

At that time, I was pushed to the front, unbecoming of myself, driven by the fear that there might really be witches and the anxiety that the adventurers I knew might disappear, but the only result I came back after suffering so much was the uncomfortable silence with Celine and the chills. For the first time, Gerald’s face was everything. A reward from the guild? I didn’t really want that. No, in fact, who wouldn’t want a few gold coins to put under the bed, but in order to get the allowance, I had to prove that I participated in the dungeon raid, so I just ignored it. I like to live quietly. I am still reluctant to do anything that will make my name known. I am not an adventurer in the first place.

Still, if you don’t mind, Gerald, who obtained the As a reward for this job, and their party made a promise that they would always run to my request and do it, but…… As is usually the case with oral contracts, it makes sense that if someone does not speak up first, it will gradually be forgotten. It wasn’t that I didn’t risk my life in battle, so it was a bit like me taking money separately.

Anyway, just when I thought everything was in place, I was finally able to recall one fact.

Whether you go through hardships outside the inn, jump on your feet, or just roll around in bed, the day goes by the same way. Moreover, considering that the return result was the same scolding by Celine, it was concluded that it would be more comfortable to live without paying attention to what was happening outside the inn as much as possible.

No, isn’t it? If you are criticized for leaving the inn for a long time and if you are criticized for leaving the kitchen for a long time, surely it is human nature to choose the latter. So I decided to choose the latter today. Pulling the cotton blanket, he curls up like a caterpillar and buries his face in the pillow. At least, she won’t budge here until Celine, who’s very angry, comes to my room.

If this blanket is removed, the bondage of labor will unfold again. After all, it is dangerous outside the blanket and out of bed.

My room is the best.

The duvet is the best.

Naps are the best…… ?

Kikik.

I-san, you finally came. I deliberately turned my head against the wall without answering, to pretend I was still asleep. Sure enough, when the door opened, the wind that seeped through the door tickled the soles of my feet. I struggled to keep my toes from curling up and tried to breathe peacefully.

No matter how diabolical Celine was, she wouldn’t kick a sleeping person. I want to believe that there will be that level of discernment. Well, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with waking up if you kindly wake me up by blowing air into my ears instead of kicking me.

By the way…… Something is strange. Was Celine originally that light? My room is no exception to the fact that this inn’s floor is worn out, so it often makes a squeaking sound when I walk with weight on my feet, as when walking outside. Celine never got fat, but she’s got a voluptuous figure that’s far from coming out anyway, and although I’ve never measured it in front of her eyes, she probably weighs well over 50 kilos. So she would never be free from the noise.

But since the door opened earlier, I haven’t heard any footsteps, at least to my ears. It’s strange, no one but Celine can freely enter my room. More than that, when the door is opened, it feels as if something was going in and out of the embankment and it was quiet. Weird, usually bang! Or rattle! It’s normal to make the same noise.

“… ….”

I never let go of my tension even though I thought it was a little strange. Because there’s no law saying he’s sticking to the old pattern. Rather, there may be an evil ulterior motive to reassure me with such actions and cause more pain. Whatever it is, I’ll stay quiet until I get caught. In any case, it is natural for the intruder to reveal his identity first…… ?

“Ummm… ….”

Munkle. As I was still waiting for the right time, I suddenly felt someone’s weight resting on my shoulder. Not only that, but also the soft feel of her breasts that could not be mistaken. Did Celine finally let go of her reason? Or has she been drunk since broad daylight? No matter how many men there are around, I can’t believe I’m trying to climb the stairs of adults first. I was imagining 50,000 things and estimating the heavy weight felt through a cotton blanket, but now the unknown intruder even dared to wrap one arm and leg over my body!

“…… Whoa.”

An excited moan. Feeling like a hugging pillow for her, I was certain at this point that ‘her’ was not Celine. The Celine I know never tries to flirt with me like this, she’s sleeping in broad daylight and she’s not even a saint trying to reward me. Who then? One thing was certain: no matter what, I would not be able to resist by force. Because all the other women in the inn are adventurers. While the faces of several female adventurers staying at this inn flashed past in my mind, the woman finally opened her mouth as if to reveal her true identity.

“Sabuniim… ….”

What? Who is your father I let her go, and then she took one more drink and moved her other hand in front of me and slowly started to feel it on her blanket! I quickly lifted the blanket and turned around before it escalated into a more severe situation. The narrow single bed just knocked the intruder off the floor, and I quickly climbed onto the mattress with my back to one wall like a ninja. Cooong!

“Ouch…… Uh, what is it?”

That’s what I’m going to say. She turned her gaze to the floor, where she saw a woman with her pale pink hair hanging down, wearing only a loose-fitting thin linen shirt, her smooth thighs tucked in her groaning. I don’t remember coming in after drinking the night before, but the smell of fruit wine was very strong in the room. Who is this woman?

“That’s what I’m going to do. Who are you?”

“Oh…… ? Uh, uh, isn’t this my room, isn’t it?”

Then whose room is it? I poured out my resentment on her, got down from her bed, and pushed her hand down her back to support her, who was obviously drunk.

“Jin! What are you doing noisy! If you wake up, come down quickly and help me…… Without…… Oh?”

Why didn’t he notice that Celine was approaching through the crack in the half-open door? Simple. Because the woman was drunk and I was embarrassed. And she made eye contact with me, unfortunately, in the scene where I was holding her in her hands.

“…… Room…… In my room.”

“… ….”

“Who… ….”

“You must be wrong.”

“… ….”

It’s a big deal. Celine’s light brown hair seems to be fluttering in unknown pressure. I shook my head desperately and said.

“No, suddenly this person came into the room drunk, so there was a brief incident. That’s all.”

“…… Why is his hand tucked away?”

“Huh? No, that, to raise this up.”

Thump! Without hesitation, she withdrew her hand and the woman hit her head on the floor again, but she wasn’t very sorry because she was the cause of the situation in a way. I turned away from the gaze I felt below.

“Why are the futons all over the place?”

“No, that’s because I was surprised.”

“What about pants?”

“Huh?”

“Pants.”

My pants? Are you wearing pants? While I was in a daze, Celine silently pointed to the woman I was supporting. You can’t see it from this angle, but you can tell that the underpants aren’t showing, at least all the way to the sleek upper thighs. What is it, there are people who stick to the missing bottom fashion in another world. I admired her fashion and looked at her with those sleek legs… ….

“Evil! Oh, it was boned! My shin! Evil!”

“Die! Just die, you fool!”

Because I was caught peeping, I was beaten to dust in the morning. In the meantime, the woman hurriedly returned to her room, and when she suddenly met her gaze with the tearful me, she made a sorry expression on her face, hurriedly straightened herself up, and left her room. The shape of her mouth seems to be saying something…… It hurt and I couldn’t see properly.

No, what should I do if I go out like that? In the end, I had to endure the onslaught of the rage until Celine’s anger subsided, to be precise, until the misunderstanding was resolved.

Oh really. No day is easy.
