CHAPTER 55.5- A harsh reality. Part 2.
The death... I know that death is something natural ... I have experienced it ... I have died… When I died, I did not suffer ... I guess my death was instantaneous or the summoning had something to do with it.
There was a time when I was afraid of death ... After the death of my parents, I was afraid of death ... No... I was afraid of being alone ... I didn't want to be alone ... I didn't want to lose any more loved ones ... Did not want... But death is inevitable.

"It's time for your bath, brother!"
Mei came into my room ... But I'm not in my room.
"B-brother?"
Far away, in a cemetery, I was standing in front of Treka's grave... Death is inevitable in this world too. There are no spells to revive people.
"Treka ... If you hadn't pushed me, Cris would have killed me ..."
I'm useless… I couldn't save her ... She saved me. Am I really the protagonist? If so, I am disgusting as a protagonist.
Heroes are more powerful than me.
A Slime is more powerful than me.
I'm not even handsome ... What is special about me? Nothing.
…
…
What if I quit?
Yes… Maybe it's for the best.
Can I really defeat a Goddess? I can't even defeat a simple slime.
In this world, men are treated like trash ... In this country they are treated a little better, but women still see men as inferior beings.
Can I really change this world? I don't know.
The best thing to do would be to resign... Living a quiet life... No, I can't live a quiet life in this world ... What if the heroes lose? What if Desmolfer wins? Humans would die.
I don't know what to do. I am so useless.
I lost the strength in my legs and fell to the ground on my knees.
My tears fell on my legs.
"I'm useless… What is special about me? I'm just an idiot ... I'm not handsome. My life was not difficult ... I did not suffer from poverty ... When I was fat, people made fun of me, but I managed to get over it ... My life was quiet ... Why did this happen?! I didn't want this ... Day after day, I have to train until I can't anymore ... Girls use me as a sex toy ... My mother and my grandmother are crazy ... Mei, I love you, but you are becoming a Sei Molfer 2 ... Auntie, Nia, I miss you, but I can't go on like this. Cris, I miss competing with you. Lizma, I miss playing video games with you ... I miss my world ... Lo extraño... But I can't defeat a Goddess ... I can't defeat the demons ... I am useless!"
"Please don't break it! I beg you!"
The cry of a child ... A child crying ... It is heard far away.
"A child..."
I decided to go investigate ... A child's smile must be protected. I will not allow them to make a child cry.
I left the cemetery and went to a nearby school.
Two girls were teasing a boy ... They took a teddy bear ... The child has characteristics of a dog ... How adorable.
"Harassment will never end in this world."
I approached them.
"Kiss our shoes, you idiot!"
"Do it now!"
"Y-Yes!"
With tears in his eyes, the boy crouched down ... But I took him by the arm and picked him up.
"Don't humiliate yourself."
The girls are like 11 or 12 years old ... My skill can work ... I want to solve this peacefully.
I smiled at them and activated my skill.
"Pretty girls, stealing is bad. Please return that."
They don't stop looking at me and their faces turned a little red ... I guess it worked.
I walked over to them and caressed their cheek.
"They are beautiful. Being bad girls doesn't mix with you. Please leave the child alone."
"Y-Yes."
"We will!"
"Thanks."
The girls returned the teddy bear.
"By the way, my name is Kei Molfer."
"Molfer?!"- Said the two scared.
"Yes. If they continue to bother that poor child, they will pay the consequences. Fairy magic: wings."
Two pairs of red wings came out of my back and I flew away.
"Despite being useless, I can be of help sometimes ..."
I'm useless… But I must try to improve myself.
Death is inevitable. I'm sure I'll die ... Maybe my companions will die ... But it is a price that we must accept ... If the demons win, we will die ... We must try to win.
I can't fail the girls ... If I quit, I will disappoint them.
Zius trusted me ... I must not fail him ... I must try to win.
If I give up, I'll die ... If I decide to move on, I will die too ... But my death will be more satisfying.
I will die again ... I already accepted it ... I will enjoy the time I have left of life.
…
…
Treka, thanks for saving me ... You opened my eyes ... I'm useless… I couldn't save you ... But your death will not be in vain ... I'll kill Cris ... And I will kill Fravi.
In the future there will be more deaths.
More suffering.
I will suffer too much ... But I will not be the typical protagonist who loses hope and causes a disaster for being an idiot. I know that I am useless, but at least I will try to win.
I will keep fighting no matter what pain I feel.
Why? Because that's my destiny ... And I already accepted it... Gracias por todo, Treka.
