“No, that’s…”
“Enough with the excuses.”
When I tried to talk to clear up the misunderstanding, Yomi-san ended the conversation in a cold voice as if she was ripping the air.
It’s no good. It’s as if she doesn’t want to listen.
She’s usually a calm and collected person who’s smarter than anyone else, but did I upset her until she got like this….?
I’m trying to get through to Yomi San who’s exuding an intimidating air while staring at my face.
At this rate, she won’t even listen to my request.
What should I do?
I felt cold sweat running down my back as I put my brain to full use.
–But no matter how much I used my brain to think about it, I couldn’t come up with an answer that would help me get through this situation.
It’s not that I don’t have something to persuade her, since I originally came here to persuade her.
But I didn’t expect her to be angry in the first place, and I couldn’t think of any way to calm her down.
I’ve never been able to talk her down when she’s really angry.
…… No, it’s not something I can say openly.
I was in front of a genius who was unleashing a tremendous amount of pressure on me, and I couldn’t help but think strange things about how desperate the situation was.
I know that turning a blind eye to reality will not help, but that’s how bad it is to make this person angry.
“Huh, ……, that’s enough.”
After a few dozen seconds of frantically thinking about it, Yomi San exhaled as if exasperated.
“Ah, please wait a minute.”
I thought she was going to end the conversation, so I hurriedly tried to stop her.
However, Yomi-san said something unexpected to me.
“Let’s move on with the talk. That’s why you came here, isn’t it?”
Yomi-san sat back down in her chair and showed me that she was listening to me as she stared into my eyes.
Then she urged me to sit down in the chair across from her.
Looks like she wasn’t going to turn me away without a second thought.
I was relieved, but I knew that I couldn’t let my guard down.
After all, her eyes are not filled with any of the usual kindness, and her whole body is still radiating pressure.
I could see that she wanted to end the conversation immediately if it was not beneficial to her.
“Well, Yomi-san …… I’ll tell you about it. But before that could you please resolve the misunderstanding first? Because I don’t seem to be able to talk properly as it is–“
“Misunderstanding? You’ve been neglecting Yomi and indulging yourself with idols, Yorito. What exactly is the misunderstanding, please answer briefly.”
Oh …… yes.
Yeah. I immediately understood that this was a huge pain in the ass.
Whenever he calls me “you”, it’s provocatively, as if to say, “If you have an excuse, tell me. The content of the misunderstanding was also right on target.
It was my dad and his friend who removed me from Yomi-san’s guard duty, but it was around that time that I fell in love with Nekoto-chan, and after that, I often went to her concerts during long vacations.
I don’t know who leaked this information to Yomi-san, but from her point of view, it could be seen as me abandoning my job as an escort to go to an idol’s concert.
Even if she had been told that the decision was made after a discussion between my dad and the others, she might have read too much into it and think that my dad and the others were protecting me.
Now, if I were to tell her that I didn’t quit my job as a bodyguard to go to Nekoto-chan’s concert, would she believe me?
–No, she would never believe me.
Physical evidence is high on her list of things to trust when she speculates.
Oh, I can only hate myself for my bad timing.
“Gosh, a misunderstanding is a misunderstanding, but if I say I want you to believe it without evidence – you won’t believe me, will you ……?”
“Of course not”
“Right.”
I tried to ask her about it as if I was in a high spirit, but she cut me off without a second thought.
I think it’s better to give up now and switch to persuading her to lend me her power somehow.
If I don’t, I might be sent home like this.
“Hah ……it can’t be helped. I’m sure you’ll be able to understand why I’m here — or rather, what I’m asking you to do.”
“Rejected.”
“You haven’t heard yet, have you?”
I was rejected before I could tell her what I wanted, and I couldn’t help but make a comment.
She doesn’t want to listen, does she? ……!
“Can’t you at least listen before you judge?”
“No.”
Why not?”
“What’s the point of listening if you know the answer?”
You can see that Yomi-san, who exhales a boring sigh, is not listening to me at all.
When she guessed that I wasn’t going to help Clara-chan, she had already figured it out.
I’m sure she understands my thought process as well – that’s why she’s saying she doesn’t need to listen.
“You know what, Yorito? Don’t make a mistake. Yomi is not a sage.”
“Yes.”
“If Yorito is in trouble, I will help him. I’ll do anything for you. But if it is for someone else, Yomi will not help. Because Yomi is not a sage.”
“Yes, yes… what?
I was simply nodding my head because of Yomi-san’s mood, but then I froze, thinking that she said something amazing just now.
Then I tried to think back to what she said, but…
“Um, young lady …? I understand that you haven’t been able to organize your feelings due to the mixture of anger and joy because you met him for the first time in a long time, but your real intentions are leaking…? “
“I made a mistake. Anyway, Yomi isn’t the person Yorito thinks she is. So I won’t help you.”
After the Maid-san gave her an earful, Yomi-san, whose cheeks were slightly red, suddenly stood up and pressed her finger on my forehead as if to threaten me, and I was stopped in my tracks by the unspeakable power.
TN: well, yomi is just sad that he left her alone for an idol. What a jerk. Making heroine everywhere he goes.
