VRMMO no Shien Shokunin ~Top Player no Shikakenin~-Chapter 133
「…Do you have any bussiness with us?」(Wataru)
Scary…are these guys yakuza or something?
Anyway, there’s a high chance that they got the wrong person so…I tried my best to not make my voice tremble and asked them.
However, these guys didn’t reply at all and kept blocking the street.
In the middle of that, Tsukasa pulled my sleeve and said.
「You see…Master. These guys are our SP.」(Tsukasa)
「SP? So that means-」(Wataru)
「Without telling me a thing, you sure are having fun. Tsukasa.」
「O-Ojou-sama!」(Tsukasa)
With a hint of pride, a refreshingly clear voice resounded throughout the street.
The one who descended from an even bigger car than the one before while being held by the hand of a man was…
Like a western doll, a beautiful girl with blonde hair and blue eyes.
「Herscha!? Wait, that hair color and eye color was natural!? You didn’t change that with the settings in-game…!?」(Wataru)
I had wondered if it was really the case but…she’s definitely not Japanese! Furthermore, I don’t think she’s even a half or a quarter either!
Seeing her in real life, I can’t feel any Japanese characteristics coming from her.
Furthermore, her characteristic drills were going strong too.
「Ah, no, I apologize. It’s actually our first meeting right…or not.」(Wataru)
Since I don’t know her age I also don’t know how I should act.
I thought that I couldn’t speak to her as if we were in-game hence my wording.
「I don’t mind, Hind. Besides, I already told you before that I find it disgusting when you speak to me in a polite manner.」(Herscha)
「I guess you have a point…wait a moment, isn’t it too harsh of you to say it’s disgusting!?」(Wataru)
Then Herscha made a sigh…or rather, the ojou-sama who I still didn’t know the name of, fixed her hair and daringly smiled at me.
Like I thought, like inside the game, she’s the type to wear her heart on her sleeve.
Currently, I was seated inside the luxury car while slightly shaking.
…This is weird. Actually, around this time I should have gone to the supermarket and would be on my way home.
This felt like an event inside a game, it didn’t really feel real to me.
These comfortable seats that were facing each other, this was a limousine right?
Even though I thought that I would never get to ride one of these in my life…
「Why did this happen.」(Wataru)
「I’m sorry, Master. Employees have to state where they are going on days off…」(Tsukasa)
So that’s why they knew where we were.
Though she shouldn’t have known who he was meeting, I felt as if Herscha understood something from looking at how Tsukasa was fidgeting on his seat.
In other words, you could say it was simply her sixth sense telling her a rough outline of what we had done.
She’s quite the frightening woman.
「What are you dissatisfied with? To be invited into my own home to have dinner, even famous businessmen rarely get such a chance.」(Herscha)
「It’s not like I want to become a businessman or a member of the government…wait, that’s not it. I’m the one in charge of chores at home, I have to go back and make preparations for dinner.」(Wataru)
I was forcibly pushed into the car and Rise’s cooking sense is god awful.
It’s becoming dark, so she should be finishing cram school about now.
My mom also has a day shift today so she should be finishing work and returning home, she should also be quite tired so if I’m not there, the chances that they make some instant food is high.
Just thinking of myself eating some extravagant dinner while the two members of my family are eating some simple meal…it makes my chest hurt.
While I was asking like that, Tsukasa did his best to protest.
「O-Ojou-sama…I was the one that called Master on my own personal request so…」(Tsukasa)
「I know that! This is what people call an “offline meeting” right? Why did you leave me out!?」(Herscha)
「Ah…」(Tsukasa)
Tsukasa was silenced.
Well, it’s not like he can say he was choosing a birthday present…even less in front of the person herself.
In that case, I guess I should fabricate a reason for both of us to meet.
A straight out lie will surely be discovered right away, in this case…don’t hate me for this, Tsukasa.
「The truth is, Tsukasa asked me to choose some casual clothes for him. It would be pretty boring to bring a girl to a men’s fashion shop right? Isn’t that so, Tsukasa?」(Wataru)
「Eh? …Ah, yes, that’s right! Ojou-sama, you know about my worries right?」(Tsukasa)
「What’s with that unnatural question? If I remember correctly, you were worried that you are not very manly…I see.
I guess there’s nothing I can do if that’s the reason.」(Herscha)
「That’s right! It can’t be helped right!?」(Tsukasa)
「?」(Herscha)
Tsukasa, who was sitting next to me, played along but…he’s really bad at lying.
The ojou-sama sitting down in front of us was tilting her head.
「So, getting back on topic. It’s fine around here, could you drop me off? I’ll just walk back somehow.」(Wataru)
「Non non, that won’t do. What you wanted to say was that it would be fine if I did something about your family’s dinner right? In that case, tell me your address.」(Herscha)
「What are you saying? There’s no way I could tell others that kind of personal information so lightl-」(Wataru)
「I won’t do anything bad! Tell me!」(Herscha)
「No, like I sai-」(Wataru)
「T・E・L・L M・E」(Herscha)
「…Fine.」(Wataru)
This back and forth is similar to that first time we met. She’s so pushy.
However, what is she planning to do once she gets the address? Is she going to order some food delivery or something?
Once she got that information out of me, she looked at the maid that was sitting next to her.
Then, the maid contacted someone in a low voice.
Uwah…it’s a real maid…but for some reason, she’s Japanese. She has black hair.
「Anyway, you have nothing to worry about.」(Herscha)
「Ah, I see…」(Wataru)
I resigned to my fate and slowly deflated on top of the seat.
Umu, this seat is so soft…
Once he saw that, Tsukasa looked quite startled.
「Master…even if I’m not one to say this, haven’t you given up too easily?」(Tsukasa)
「Listen Tsukasa. When it comes to girls with such a pushy personality, once they decided on something, they won’t listen to anything you say…」(Wataru)
「Ara, you do get it.」(Herscha)
Once I closed my eyes, I could see an image of Miyu smirking with her arms crossed.
When I opened my eyes, I could see a girl with a similar expression in front of me.
This one has pride and financial wealth on top of it, she’s even more troublesome…
I calmed down and fixed my posture and remembered something I forgot to ask.
「Now that I think about it, I haven’t heard your name yet. It feels kinda weird because it’s not really our first time meeting but…I’m Kishikami Wataru.」(Wataru)
「Pleased to make your acquaintance, Wataru. My name is Wendelgart・Marie・Schultz」(Marie)
「Wen-…my bad, what did you say?」(Wataru)
「Wendelgart・Marie・Schultz」 (Marie)
「…Is it fine if I refer to you with your middle name? Ah, is it not good if I refer to you with your middle name unless we are close? Would it be overly familiar?」(Wataru)
「No, I don’t mind. This is just one of my grandfather’s hobbies, it’s not the name I go by these days.」(Marie)
「In that case, Marie」(Wataru)
With that, I was invited to Marie’s house.
Though I was half forced into it.
After that, we stayed in the car for around two hours.
While wondering what kind of high quality product this orange juice, which was oddly fragrant and sweet, the place we arrived at was…
A mansion on a slightly elevated hill.
From the main entrance, you could see a fountain in front of the door further away and there were magnificent gigantic buildings on both sides too.
The lawn was perfectly taken care of and…is that a pool I see?
A space that I wouldn’t usually be able to imagine spread out in front me…this is Japan right?
While I was dumbfounded as I left the vehicle, another car entered the premises with great speed.
Consequently, two people descended from the car as if they were falling over.
Those two are…
「Nii-san!」(Rise)
「Wataru! Are you OK!? Are you injured!?」(Akeno)
Rise and mom tackled me with great vigor and were touching my body all over the place.
You could see a lot of question marks appearing inside my head.
「Ah? Oh? Why are mom and Rise here…? Besides, what do you mean by injuries?」(Wataru)
「I heard that nii-san was kidnapped…」(Rise)
「They said that wataru was kidnapped…」(Akeno)
「Hah!? Wait a moment! What kind of explanation did you give them!?」(Marie)
Marie asked the maid next to her what was going on.
Her hairstyle was cut in blunt bangs, the beautiful Japanese woman called Shizuka stated this coldly.
「I told them that Wataru-sama was under our custody」(Shizuka)
「The way you said it could be easily misunderstood! S-Shizuka-san…」(Tsukasa)
「What are you doing Shizuka!? Didn’t I tell you to tell them in an amicable manner and bring them over here!? I said that right!?」(Marie)
Tsukasa and Marie looked at her while criticizing her but the maid didn’t seem to care.
She did say that I didn’t have to worry about dinner but I never thought she would actually bring both of them here too…
I placed a hand on my forehead and shook my head and looked at my family, who didn’t know what was going on.
It seems like I won’t be able to count on them so I did my best to explain the situation…
After that, there are parts that I don’t really remember well.
The reason for that might have been because I reached my mental limits.
We first were led inside the mansion towards a guest room, when I was thinking about going to the toilet…Tsukasa appeared after having changed into a butler outfit.
Like that, I started to help him out.
Maybe because I forcibly made him let me help out, Tsukasa was scolded and I felt bad about it.
However, even if we are guests, with my personality it doesn’t really feel right to be taken care of by others without doing anything myself…I can’t really calm down after being told to just sit down and relax.
For some reason, the head butler seemed to take a liking to me and said 「You are free to come!」 and tried to scout me but I declined.
I have no intention to leave my current workplace after all. Furthermore, this place is just too far.
When it came to the dinner, Marie appeared wearing a red dress that looked exactly the same as the one I made in-game…unimaginable stuff happened that day.
Rise was in a bad mood from start to finish but my mom was in a good mood because she got to eat a stravagant dinner for free.
Marie mistook her for our older sister for some reason and that made her be in an even better mood.
Mom…
Marie’s parents seemed to not be here at the moment and honestly, I was glad when I heard that.
To eat in front of people that are this rich, there’s no doubt that I wouldn’t be able to taste whatever I was eating if that were to happen when I’m already at my limits eating with their daughter Marie.
By the way, I heard that Marie was really pleased with the silver accessory that Tsukasa made. I’m glad, Tsukasa.
