ARC3 PROLOGUE
Have I ever felt so fulfilled?

Is it because of the surrounding’s reaction when I solo captured a dungeon, the experiences I gained, or the feeling they have toward me? I now see my everyday life in this world with more colors.

The reason why my world is so colorful right now is that Ludi, Sempai, Nanami, and Nee-san are here.

I have something that I must give to the people who have colored…….. my……. World.

Wait.

“Rather than the academy square I think we should install this at the academy’s gate, it would attract more attention that way right?”

“That’s true…..!”

“Wait a minute.”

“What’s wrong Goshujin-sama?”

“Kousuke?”

At that place is Nanami and Nee-san who are discussing something with a serious expression while Ludi looking at them with a tired expression.

I am getting anxious about this situation.

Since they are talking with such seriousness, I have to properly confirm something with them first.

“What exactly are you doing?”

In front of Nanami and Nee-san, there is a quotation with a lot of zeros written on it. Nee-san might look the same as always but I can read her expression. She is serious right now.

“Well, we are just thinking about building you a bronze statue in commemoration of your unprecedented record.”

Oh, it’s just a bronze statue. I’m relieved since I thought that it would be something much more outrageous.

“Nah, it would be embarrassing to have my own bronze statue right? It’s a waste of money so I don’t need it ♪”

Of course, I don’t need it but it made me really happy that I leave behind a record that is worth building a statue for. It’s like you are being rewarded for your hard work.

“I am glad that you like it. Does [Nanami Grand Slam] sound like a good name for the statue?”

“IT’S YOUR STATUE!? What about mine!?”

It was me who established that record right!? Why are they building a statue of Nanami? It would certainly look better than me but that’s mine thing alright?

“Nanami is joking. It’s Kousuke’s statue.”

That’s good, I’m relieved that it is my statue.

“I see, it’s mine huh? I’m happy. But really, I don’t need it.”

“But we already got the permission from the academy, the rest is calculating the cost…….”

Have they ever listen to me? Speaking of which.

“If that’s true then Marino-san had a word with them right?”

That person is the dictator of the academy as she is both the headmaster and the director after all. If you want to get permission then it would be her who you have to ask. Wait, why do they need permission to install it?

“ [If you have the statue of me as the headmaster standing beside Kou-chan’s statue then I don’t mind covering all the expenses you know…….] She was saying something like that even though the place beside Goshujin-sama should belong to a faithful maid like me. Of course, I already declined her offer.”

She was going to pay for it? I will complain to Marino-san later. Absolutely.

“Stop it. I don’t need a bronze statue anyway.”

Nanami shook her head and say [good grief] while sighing.

“…..even though I have planned so much already…..that’s unfortunate. Right now, my respect points for Goshujin-sama just dropped by five points.”

“Hee, respect points you say. You have something like that too huh……. By the way, how many points is it now?”

“Five hundred and sixty million points.”

“Isn’t that basically marginally insignificant!?”

If you have five hundred sixty million yen, would you even realize it if you lost five yen? There’s absolutely no way you would notice that.

“Your wonderful retort just moved my heart, your points just increased by three thousand.”

“What is that number, won’t it only be increasing at this rate……”

“By the way, hundred is the maximum point on this scale.”

“Isn’t it already exceeded the limit?! Rather than respect that’s on worship or a fanatic level already.”

“That’s embarrassing.”

“I am not praising you…..”

Rather, if I am praising you then the point will just increase, right?

“Kousuke, don’t worry”

I let out a small sigh.

Nee-san…..your meaning of don’t worry is totally not providing me with any safe and secure feeling at all.

“….What should I not be worried about, Nee-san?”

“Onee-chan points is also exceeded eight hundred million too.”

This is bad, I can’t catch up to these two when they are together at all…..what is Onee-chan points anyway? Moreover, she used [-chan] right, she did use [-chan] just now, right? She also used [-chan] before, I remembered she told me that she wants me to call her with [-chan] a while back. It’s embarrassing but let’s try calling her like that this one time.

“I see…..thank you, Onee-chan.”

“ ! ! Onee-chan points increased by one billion points just now.”

“You just lost fifty thousand respect points Goshujin-sama.”

“WHY ! ?”

“That was a joke…….Haa.”

It doesn’t sound like a joke though. Well, whatever.

Even so……how should I say this? Should I say that my daily life has been sprinting full speed toward this direction? This nostalgic idiotic daily life. I was inside a dungeon for a week after all.

“You say something to them too Ludi.”

I shake Ludi who was quietly listening to our conversation.

“I think a bronze statue would make you look like an attention-seeking man you know.”

OH, That’s it. Ludi is so wonderful. I beg you, tell them more.

“If you make a deformed doll instead then…….”

This
“Yes Yes, if it’s a defor-…….I DON’T NEED THAT !”

No matter how I think about it I don’t need one! Was she influenced by Nanami? Why are you the one making a joke, please retort them for me.

“R, RIGHT. TH-THAT WAS JUST A JOKE!”

“Well, never mind about that. By the way, where’s Sempai?”

“It seems like something came up with the public moral committee, I think she will come back with Marino-san later. Apparently, they have to do something about the first year students before they can do anything reckless.”

Hee, reckless guys huh. Was there a person like that?….. I feel like I can think of someone like that though.

“Maybe it’s because what Kousuke did?”

“Right. I will apologize to them later.”

“Yukine-san doesn’t really mind about that. She looked rather happy to do it too.”

When we were consulting with each other, Nanami and Nee-san started talking with a serious expression again.

“….So, what are you guys talking about?”

“Honestly speaking, Ludi-sama just opened my eyes. We should make deformed dolls instead.”

“I want one, it will sell.”

“No, it won’t.”

People that want a deformed doll of me……is there one? Rather,

“I think it would be better if you make some of Ludi, Nee-san or Nanami though. I want one too.”

“M-Mine ! ?”

“Onee-chan……”

“Is there anyone present that is against the deformed dolls idea?”

It was three different reactions. I am seriously don’t know what they want to say anymore.

“I think Ludi plush toys will sell like hotcakes you know. Especially to the LLL.”

In fact, her photos are being sold at a high price even now.

“Aah…..”

Ludi somehow looked very disgusted by the idea. Come to think of it, she hated them huh.

When I was talking to Ludi, Nanami and Nee-san whispered something to each other and stand up. Then they left the room.

“Speaking of which…..”

When I was looking at the two left the room, Ludi spoke up.

“You talked about the points earlier right?”

“Yeah, I was.”

Ludi looks down while her face is somehow a little redder. She then rises her hair up with her right hand while turning her face away from me and muttered something with a small voice.

“You..see. If-if I have some kind of trust points too then–Kousuke already has the, the m-maximum points alright!”

Saying so, Ludi stands up.

She tried to leave the room but her shoulder knocked into the door. It looked painful but she left the room just like that.
