“Yuki-san! Oi, wake up, Yuki-saan!”
I heard someone’s calling for me.
“Sis, fuck off, am sleeping…”
“Sis…? Yuki-san! Wake u-up!”
Because I was pushed violently, I finally woke up. But after opening my eyes what I saw in front of me was not my sis, but Fran’s face.
Oh, yeah. I’m not at home anymore…
“Why u waking me so hard? Gib some sleep in da morning dammit…” I murmured a bit irritated.
“It’s almost evening!” Fran grumbled.
E-e-e…
Don’t wanna. But okay.
I woke up from the bed to see that it is really past noon outside the window. I guess yesterday was pretty tiring for me because of all that shit that happened. Well, whatever.
After finishing some minor things I just threw another bunch of coins to the owner and left with Fran to Braensburg. Surprisingly, the tavern had a bunch of adventurers in it when we were leaving, so I caught a few dirty looks and was ready to beat some faces, but luckily we already departed.
The road from the village to Braensburg was pretty short. Literally a few hours with fast walking speed. But still, I really slept too much, so it became rather dark halfway through. Gladly we came before gates closed. Well, nobody wanted to pass two beastgirls this late, but ‘B’-rank and some rumors about me in town did their work, so we passed and went to the guild.
What awaited us there were an empty guild hall and Clara, who was ready to close up. She made an extremely displeased face when seen us, but I paid her no attention and just went to a second floor to see a guild master with Fran still following me.
“Sup.”
I went without knocking. I could, yes, but too lazy to follow any kinds on etiquette. GM was sitting on his table while checking some papers. When he saw me, he was a bit surprised but still recovered fast.
“Ah, Yuki-san, you already back? It would be nice if you could…”
“So.” Without waiting for him to finish, I just started my report.
Well, he wasn’t angry in any way and just started to listen. Somehow I’m amazed by his tolerance and also glad for it because I’m not that much in a mood to do some extra dialogs. With Fran’s help, I finished my report and asked her to pull out a demon sword as proof of me killing a demon.
“Anything else do by urself. My job here s done, so I gonna sleep. But yeah, where can I sell dis sword?”
“Oh…” seems like GM wasn’t expecting this much information at the end of a day, so he was a bit slow with his response “Well, if it’s about loot from the dungeons, then you can sell it to the guild. But we’re almost closed, so you need to wait for tomorrow.”
Can I sell it to the guild? Nice.
“Just consider it sold and leave money for urself. I got my request payment anyway and” I got up from the sofa “I guess ull need dat money for something else.”
“A? What do you mean?” asked GM with a stupefied face.
But I gave him no answer and just went to exit where Clara was standing. After stopping near her, a gave a full power blow with my left hand to the wall in a few centimeters off her head. The wall was destroyed entirely while shockwave from my strike also made a hole in a few rooms ahead and gave a nice view to a street. I guess I overdid it a bit. Gladly all other buildings near guild were one-storied.
At the same time, Clara just fell to the floor while watching at me with fear. Hah, it’s so easy to change people’s attitude to you sometimes. But welp. With a slight smile, I said.
“Next time, do ur job properly, bitch.”
With these words, I left the guild. I hope Clara will do a bit better after this. If not… Well, next time we meet, I may hit something that is not a wall.
While standing on the street, I lit up a cigarette. And I realized that Fran was still following me. I guess she sticks to me in one way or another. Well, not a surprise somehow.
“How much money u have?” I asked her.
“A…umm…” again she hesitated a bit, but then continued “We spent almost everything while preparing to our quest so…I have almost nothing left.”
Great!
Looks like I should stay a bit in this shitty town to get some budget. Well, of course, I still have some money. But again I somehow responsible for Fran’s state right now and I’m not someone who will leave a cute girl in trouble.
So I went to a random tavern that I found while strolling in town after my exam. It looks shady as fuck, but also as some place where nobody would ask you about being a beast-race as long as you pay the money. Fewer people around is also nice. Well, if some bad dude will try to pay us a visit, I’ll just pay him a fist.
And yes, the tavern was pretty much empty. With this, my strategy ‘throw some money to an owner without additional questions’ works well. But then what awaited me in the room was a pleasant surprise.
It’s a mirror!
Finally!
Without hiding my excitement, I ran towards the mirror and stared to myself.
.

“Dats me.”
Well, even if it sounds strange, this is definitely me. Like my face had zero changes since my last life. Well, at least I won’t need to get used to a new me and, same with my sister, I think I’m pretty cute. Kinda. At least this is the kind of face I could expect while thinking about ‘a cute girl with ~170cm height’. As I could say, my height is maximum average. Like most of the rarely-seen girls-adventurers like Fran was somewhere near 160 and guys near 180+.
But there was one important difference from the old me. Except for hair color – it’s eyes. Seems like it is how they looked while I was blind. They seem ultimately empty. Like there is no any shine or life in these pupils, and they are hardly seen at all. Like my eyes are TOO white. Well, it somehow looks in tandem with my overall white look but still…rather strange, I could say. At least no wonder why people had some weird reactions while meeting with my eyes. Getting this lifeless stare right into you seems kinda scary.
But I like it! My eyes were some typical grayish-blue color, so something like this looks neat. Nice. My eyes passed the test.
With a bit better mood, I discussed with Fran that I would stay in this town for a while and will form a party with her to help her get some budget and rank up a little. After that, I intend to move to a border direction while she can do whatever she wants. And I left to sleep while asking not to wake up me this time. I did some work already so I gotta rest a bit. A day. Two. Dunno.
Thank you for the update ~
Thanks for the chapter!!
