LBADDWSB Chapter 11 - Let's be Careful of Unjustified Resentment! (Part 1)




Translator: LN&WN Warrior

When he checked the blog the next day....... 'What is this!'
Somehow the PVs increased by 5 and the bookmarks became 3.

"Yahoo......!!

'It's my first bookmark in 2 months since I create the blog.'
'Are there more wonderful things than this?!'

'In addition, the PVs reached a new record, 5 views.'

'Be it yesterday or today, good things have happened continuously.'
'As expected, is it because I saved Karen?'
'Is it because God redeemed my actions were "correct"?'

Because he was too high spirited, he hit the wall!

"Oh, I'm sorry."

His body was in perfect form after leveling up by subjugating a large number of monsters.
The fatigue he felt yesterday was completely gone.

When he worked in a printing company, even after he drank an expensive Yunker or taking a long hot bath, he still felt fatigued in the next day. (TLN: Yunker is a Japanese health tonic.)
'My body feels like when I was a child.'

When Haruki calmed down, he started to think about today's action.

'I forgot to thank the armor dealer's clerk for the armor yesterday.'
'Should I visit the armor dealer first?'

'At the same time, it may be good to purchase a pair of shoes and gloves to replace my old ones.'

"After that, I only need to go home......."

For some reason, Haruki felt like something was wrong.
'Is this really okay?'

The thing left in his mind was only Karen's baby face.

He only had a normal relationship with Karen, the girl who he met yesterday.
......it certainly wasn't something that caused him to be nervous.

Haruki didn't help her in a Monster Rampage attack because she was a girl.

But because he felt she would be attacked by other people.
'It was natural as an adventurer.'

He declared it without an ulterior motive.

That was why he didn't have an intention to meet her once again, but.......

".......no, that's wrong!'

After he realized something, Haruki quickly put on his equipment and rushed out from the hotel room.

'This is not a situation to think about meeting her or not.'
Haruki should meet Karen.

'If I let her be, she will definitely...... die!

*********

It was still early morning, but the dungeon was crowded already.

Before the gate.
At the dungeon entrance where adventurers lined up, Haruki was thoroughly following the check.

But even if there were too many people, he didn't think Karen couldn't be found.

"Shit! I can send a private message on the blog."

'I was crazy to not realize it.'

'Furthermore, it just happened yesterday.'
'It's not necessary for Karen to visit dungeon today.'

Nonetheless, Haruki for some reason though Karen would come.
He was surely too hasty.

"Ha......."

'Let's rest for a while.'
Taking a deep breath, Haruki noticed his power remonstrate.

At that moment,

"Go, good morning!"

Haruki heard a greeting from Karen who just appeared.
Even though Haruki had an Air-like presence, Karen could find him.

"Well...... she finds me right away although my presence is still thin."
"Yes, that is....... err, Karaboshi-san's mask stands out."

'Ah, this is the cause.'
Haruki touched the edge of the mask using his finger.

'Is it attached with the easy to discover effect?'

'If I think about it, the atmosphere of my surrounding felt different than usual since yesterday.
'This is...... I see everyone will gather their gaze to me when I wear the mask.'

"Is this mask...... a God item!?"

'My presence increased by just wearing it!'
'This kind of magic tools effect is...' Haruki's body trembled.

"Damn it! How is this!!"

'I could buy such God item for only 500 yen!'
'That clerk is a Goddess!'

"Are you okay?" (Karen)
"Ye, yes, I'm okay."

Looking at Karen's puzzled expression, Haruki was hurriedly kept his composure.

"Karen-san"
"Yes, what is it!"

When she was called, Karen restlessly and slowly approached him.
She looked like a small dog that found its owner.

"I actually want to hear about your team yesterday."

He heard an "Ah" sound from somewhere.
As it was too low, it was swallowed by the crowd of adventurers in the blink of an eye.

However, Haruki heard it.
He managed to grasp it by using his sense of hearing which somewhat became more sensitive after levelling up.

Immediately Karen hid behind him as he focused on the voice.

"…………"

"Bla blah blah", the man who equipping a shield said something.
Even though Haruki couldn't hear it, he clearly understood what did they say.

"So, she is alive."

Behind him, there were a large-sword user and a bow user.

As expected, they were curious.
'Is the girl who we abandoned truly dead.......'

The culprits always come back to the crime's scene.
As they were not exceptions, they also did it.
It was to make sure Karen was truly dead.

If Karen was still alive, they might do more crimes.

Of course, it was not a crime to kill people who dive in the dungeon.
But, like a chain problem, killing people would always cause the occurrence of bad situations.

    1. It's only been a day, she did write about it on her blog, but it's common to not exactly know when you should report people and how to do it. There's also the issue of he said she said, would they even believe her?

      She got left by a group to a monster stampede? That rankers don't even challenge? She's alive? One person killed 100 by himself? Stop lying.

      That's likely the response she'd get.

    2. Well, she really should report tho...
      I understand the psychological barrier, but to not even afraid to come back to the dungeon the next day is just...either she's too brave or not thinking aboht it at all :/

  2. The criminal always returns to the scene of the crime? They're adventurers, them appearing at a dungeon is kinda expected regardless

  3. Honestly just can't follow the author's logic sometimes

    1. When characters defy common sense logic repeatedly, it is typically the result of the author forcing the plot to go a certain way.
