CCM 23 – Yo, Don’t Use ‘Sama’ to Address Me


[Ariyaa?]

.

That’s strange.

Don’t tell me old man, that’s really some serious injury you got there, aren’t it?

.

But nooooooo. How could that happen.

He is the greatest swordsman there is, you know?

He won’t fall down with just that…

.

[ii– it hurrrtts!!! IT’s so daamn f*ckinggg huhuurururrttss!!]

.

But then, the old man who’s still lying down on my feet has started to cry already.

There’s not even a trace of his bravado from earlier at all. Rather, he looks like he’s definitely in pain and hurt.

.

No matter how I look at it he doesn’t seem to just really be acting it out.

.

[Arios-san, good work.]

.

Kaya then walks toward my direction with a bitter smile on her face.

.

[Ka-Kaya. This…?]

[Fufu. I’m sorry. But this person just got promoted to C rank. Seeing him earlier trying to bully you, a newbie, I just can’t simply let it go.]

[I-is that so… Hey, that’s not the problem.]

.

The Sword of Origin itself is strong.

What’s more, I buffed it with Attack Powers Up (low).

.

With the exception of those who belong in the S rankings, even I think I just went overboard…

.

Perhaps noticing what’s bothering me in my mind, Kaya starts to shake her head.

.

[You see, you really don’t have to worry. The truth is this guy’s skill is called <Guts>. For at least the five times he receives a fatal injury on a day, he will never ever die. Though, his injuries right now are pretty serious.]

.

Woah.

That’s a really strong skill he got there.

.

Perhaps it’s the reason as well for his superiority complex and picked on me who’s known to be a failskill.

.

[…That’s also the reason why I went with his farce along the way. I’d like to apologize as I ended up lying to you.]

[…I see. So that’s why.]

.

Well, I ended up beating him so badly because of it though.

That should be enough for him to reflect on himself.

.

[Hora, straighten yourself up already.]

.

Kaya with a stern expression on her face gives the old man a potion to drink. Just leaving him after seeing his terrible injuries will definitely won’t let anyone really get some peaceful sleep.

.

[Puhaa…!]

.

It took quite a few seconds.

The old man who seems like he recovered some of his strength is now able to raise his upper body.

.

[Damnn you son of a b*tch! I won’t forget this! I’ll hack yah to piecesss!!]

.

Let me correct myself.

Looks like that wasn’t enough for him to reflect.

.

[…Haaaa.]

.

Kaya who looks like on the verge of giving up already heaves out a deep sigh as she turns toward the old man and says

.

[Then, would you like to fight once again? Looks to me you’re still raring to go, aren’t you?]

[Err, that’s–]

.

Oh, the old man has suddenly become prim.

.

Perhaps he remembered the attack I made earlier, but when the old man’s eyes met mine–

.

[Hyiiiiii..!!]

.

He suddenly lets out such a really miserable cry.

.

And because all this time he’s still lying on his butt as he moves back with tears on his eyes, it came hard to imagine any kind of appearance more pathetic than that.

.

[…Will you please stop and acknowledge your loss already.]

.

The one who said that was Rei.

She’s normally a girl with a carefree attitude but in times when she’s angry, her serious expression can’t help but magnify her majesty. 

.

This old man has probably realized something seeing Rei’s dignified appearance. His eyes start to widen after all.

.

[A, are? That’s weird. You, by any chance…]

[It took you way too long to notice.]

.

The princess puts her hand on to her waist and gives the old man whose lying on the ground a very chilling gaze.

.

[I am the second princess named Reimira Li Arceus. Oh by the way, can you still remember the words that you have said to me earlier?]

[Pg-pggpu–pppuugguu–….]

.

Right then, the old man who’s just lying down earlier, faster than any movement he showed into the fight, has switched his position into a dogeza.

.

[Please forgive my rudeness! Reimira-sama! Arios-sama!]

.

Somehow, I ended up being addressed as well in ‘sama’.


Translator’s Notes:

  1. For people who plays online games, please don’t portray yourself as a carry if you really aren’t. :> Not at least if your win rate is not more than 60%. :> These type of people remind me of this old man, geez. It just hurts so much as a support main with a >60% win rate and give everything to a carry who can’t do a thing except blaming. </3
  2. ‘Sama’, opposite to ‘kun’, is a form of address in Japanese for someone with higher standing. ‘Hime-sama’ (Princess-sama), Ou-sama (king-sama), etc.
  3. Happy Friday, everyone!
