Chương 71: Chapter 71
"... Oh don't mind me, keep going."
When Momonga turned around, he saw someone standing there silently.
"R-RAIZEL!? S-since when did you get here?" Momonga asked in a panicked voice.
"Oh, I just got here, no worries."
"You just got here? Like exactly right now?" Momonga asked suspiciously.
"Yeah... I only arrived when you started saying, YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!" Yuki paused for a second as a malicious emoji appeared above him.
"Basically from the very start."
"..."
Hearing what Raizel just said, Momonga's face suddenly became beet red. Thankfully, Avatars don't convey the Player's real-time expression.
Because right now, Momonga is so embarrassed that he wants to just die or find a small hole where he could hide forever. He actually wanted to log out if not for the fact that this is the final day of YGGDRASIL.
Looking at his squirming friend, Raizel shook his head as he walked closer to him.
"... Oh come on, it's fine. I mean, I completely understand your frustrations and all, and if I were to be in your position, I would feel the same thing. Surely." Yuki said while patting Momonga on the back.
Hearing Yuki's soothing voice, which sounds very sincere, Momonga started calming down. He thought that, finally, someone managed to understand his feelings and be on the same page as him. Turns out, he's not the only one.
!!!
But the joy on Momonga's face suddenly froze when he saw a playback screen right in front of his face the moment he removed the hand that was covering his vision.
[ Recording: You gotta be kidding me!? This is the Great Tomb of Nazarick that we built together! How could you abandon it just like that!? …No, that's not right. They didn't abandon it lightly, they simply made the choice between reality and fantasy. It couldn't be helped. Nobody would betray the guild. Everyone who made that decision must have found it painful… ]
"... Damn bro, I'm surprised you can say such an embarrassing thing so easily hahaha!"
!!!
"I, I DON'T CARE ANYMORE!" Momonga thought out loud as he immediately opened up his system and started navigating the log-out button.
He did not even care about his plans for the day anymore. He's just too embarrassed right now that his main priority is to just disappear in this world as fast as possible and then hole himself up in his room.
"... Oops, don't even think about it."
But before he could even press the log-out button, his hands were stopped by Yuki.
"R- Raizel-san, please, I'm already..."
Momonga tried to plead, but his resistance completely shattered when Yuki spoke again.
"... If you press that log-out button now, I will send this video to EVERY. SINGLE. ONE OF THEM. Not a single soul will be spared, I promise you." Said by Yuki in a pretty threatening voice
And when Momonga heard this, his heart suddenly sank, and his eyes grew larger.
"NO~ NO ~ NO, Please don't show them that... I won't be able to-" Momonga started begging Yuki on the floor.
Yuki seeing him in such a state is already embarrassing, but if it's just that then Momonga can still endure it, but if it's ALL his friends that saw it, then it's a different topic.
He would literally commit suicide if such a thing happened.
"HAHAHAHA... chill man, I'm just f*cking with you. I'll delete this, look." Yuki said as he operated his system and deleted the recording in front of Momonga.
"... Ha~ thank goodness. I might really hang myself If one of them sees that." Said Momonga with a huge sigh as he stood up from the floor.
"Oh come on now, you know me, how could I do that to a friend," Yuki said suspiciously.
"Yeah~ right. Well, anyways, I'm glad that you also came, it's a shame that you didn't arrive a couple of minutes earlier, Herohero-san just logged out."
When Raizel heard this, he giggled lightly.
"Actually I already arrived here an hour ago. I already met Herohero and said my hello and farewells to him."
"... Really? Then why didn't he tell... Oh, so that's what he means by that." [💀]
"Yup. Pretty much."
"*Sigh* Anyway, what did you do here before we arrived? You Logged in too early." Momonga asked in a confused manner as he saw from the logs when Raizel logged in.
"Well, you know, just fidgeting some things here and there. Nothing much." Yuki said nonchalantly as he took a seat in some vacant chair nearby.
When Momonga heard this, he became more confused. And very suspicious. Like, he saw from the logs that Raizel has been on different floors.
"What fidgeting?" Momonga asked.
Seeing Momonga's interest in the current matter, Yuki laughed slightly, thinking that Momonga seemed to be forgetting about the fact that their schedule was tight and they didn't have the luxury of time to just sit here and have a long conversation.
So with that thought in mind, Yuki decided to cut the conversation off, conveniently... as much as he wanted it to go on.
"... It's not important trust me. What's more important is that we should move now." Raizel said in a lazy tone as he stood up slowly.
When Momonga heard Yuki's remarks, he suddenly remembered that there were only a couple of minutes left before the server shutdown happened. "...R- right! I almost forgot."
"... Chop chop, grab the wand. Time's ticking." Yuki said as he walked towards the exit.
"... W- wait!" Momonga shouted as he hurriedly took the Staff of Ainz Ooal Gown.
-WOOONG
The staff made a wooing sound as Momonga took it from its compartment.
"..."
After that, he immediately followed Yuki outside.
-Tap
-Tap
-Tap
While they were both walking along the corridors of the 11th floor, they talked about a lot of things on their way.
Well, Momonga commonly known as Satoru in real life, didn't manage to participate in Yuki's meetups these past few days cause his schedule simply wouldn't allow him to. He managed to make it up though by going online today, to which, Yuki is already aware.
So basically, It's been a while since they last talked personally, and that's why they took this chance to catch up with one another...
"Other than HeroHero-san, is there any-?"
"No. Only you and HeroHero." Yuki said in a passive tone.
"... I- I see." Momonga muttered to himself. Clearly sad about the thing he just heard.
"I talked to all of them though, met them all personally, I even tried to make them go online tonight but... you can see how that went already." Said Yuki as he sighed gently
What he said just now, is a lie, obviously. Well, it's true that he talked to all of his friends through meet-ups, but he did not convince them to go online tonight. He kinda had a roundabout way of asking for something like that, but it's not as straightforward as telling them to go online tonight.
Regardless, all of them said no anyway so in the end, it doesn't really matter. He just said such a thing so he could make himself look like 'a very compassionate friend'.
"... They must be busy with work." Momonga, though very disappointed, still tried to understand and vouch for his friends.
However, when Yuki heard that, he immediately scoffed.
"... Or with something else," Yuki said in a pretty mysterious tone.
Or that's what Yuki tried to be since Momonga immediately caught up on his subtle sarcastic attitude.
"Hmm... You said that you met them all right? Then, does that mean, you also met... Chagama-san?"
When Momonga mentioned her name, for some reason, Yuki's attitude seemed to have soured. But he still gave him an answer nonetheless.
"I did."
"... heh." Momonga made an understanding smile when heard this. "How did it go tho? I heard you guys have been in an odd situation ever since... you two broke up."
"Hmm... I don't know. Fine? I honestly don't- you know what, let's stop this topic already okay? I- I don't want to talk about it. Everything that happened is for the best of both sides. She already moved on, she looks happy in her life now, and that's what matters. Period. End of the discussion." Yuki said sternly, leaving no room for the current topic.
Momonga on the other hand, wanted to tease his friend a little more since he had never seen him this salty before.
'Something definitely happened haha.'
But of course, he knows that when Yuki says no, that's it. No more of that topic, unless he wants to be bullied again.
-bok
-bok?
-BOKBOKBOK!
But as they're going down towards the 10th Floor, both of them have suddenly noticed a clucking sound from a far distance.
"... wait, is that?"
When they looked in the direction where the clucking was coming from, they noticed a small white creature, approaching them at full speed.
(To be continued...)
