I have finally found a safe hiding place in this tower passage. This place is of great use to novice adventurers like me, but now I am exhausted. Running for an hour is exhausting, and my body is shaking with fatigue.
The monster that was chasing me is finally gone. It was a chimera, a beast with various types of animal bodies. Despite its ferocity, it could not compete with my speed. However, I had to hide and wait ten minutes until it left.
Finally, I was able to get out of here. But before I returned to my box, I suddenly stopped when I heard voices. At first, I thought they were coming from another hallway, but as I get closer, I discover it's four people.
You guys, you have to help me! - I shout at them, but the response I get is cold and calculated.
It's your turn, isn't it? On Wednesdays you're the one who carries everything. You're only S-rank, it shouldn't be hard for you," replies a brown-haired boy, with a dismissive attitude.
But there are so many things... -I try to argue.
I stand still. So, and it was a very pretty girl at the entrance of the tower. Her white hair and blue eyes captivated me. She was the most beautiful girl I had ever seen. Just seeing her made me feel something special inside.
My body moved on its own and I went to greet her. "What's your name?", I asked her without thinking.
Ah, excuse me? - she said surprised by my sudden appearance.
I was very much struck by your beauty, sorry for the sudden question - I answered embarrassed.
My name is Lachesis - she said smiling.
The way she smiled made me feel comfortable, and I realized that my heart was beating faster than ever.
Not knowing what to do, I told her, "That's a beautiful name, it sounds very royal."
She thanked me for the compliment with another beaming smile, and I simply blushed and ran for the exit.
Today was a great day.
I made it home under the bridge pretty well, even though it wasn't the most suitable place to live, at least the rain didn't affect me as much. But, wow (I got embarrassed) I didn't expect that girl to be so cute, she's a real beauty.
I blush at the thought of her, she's so tender when she smiles at me. But I guess she's too much for me, maybe I should just forget about her.
I'm just a bumpkin who has survived ten years and is still alone, I've had no friends, I've never had a girlfriend, I've had nothing in this life.
Maybe I should sleep, I'm getting angry.
I could try to impress her with that skill I have, but it's too risky for my weak body. Tomorrow I might try if I see her again, maybe she'll notice me.
Lachesis
(At this point, we are shown some of Lachesis' thoughts after meeting Yuzuru).
That boy I saw was too injured to be on floor 2. In theory, that level is easy for F-rank adventurers, but maybe I could give them some tips.
He seemed different from the other adventurers, his aura was different.
