The Other Side of the Last Boss Chapter 29

Several days have pa.s.sed since the war, and many shops in town are resuming business.

While eating in an open cafe downtown, Jeko and I were working out a strategy.

“Although we’re still in the middle of reconstruction, there’s still a large number of women walking around the city. Which one should we choose?”

Jeko’s words seem to have thorns in them.

I guess he’s been distorted by my influence.

Let’s randomly choose someone who seems quiet.

“Ah, I’m sorry, but do you have any time?”

“Sorry, but I’m in a rush.”

It was useless.

It’s useless to call out to people who’re walking fast.

“It seems useless to talk to busy people, so how about her? She’s walking slowly while looking at various stores.”

It’s a teenage woman who seems to be shopping happily.

No matter how I look, she seems free. Let’s go try.

“Excuse me?”

“Ah, yes, what is it?”

She stops walking, and begins listening to me.

OK, this is working!

…….

What?

What should I do now?

No well, I know.

I should talk.

But I don’t know what I should talk about.

Remember.

I’ve lived for over 1000 years.

However, I was secluded for most of it.

Calm down.

I’ve prepared a help card for times like this.

I look at Jeko.

Jeko nods, and directs a small notepad over here.

From this distance, humans won't be able to see.

However, I have my Evil Eyes.

They exist for this purpose.

In this situation, I’m limited to 3 choices.

It’s easier to understand what to do if I have options.

1. Today’s weather is nice, isn’t it?

2. It’s been hot lately, hasn’t it?

3. It’s supposed to be hot tomorrow too.

Why are they all topics about weather!?

It’s not like I can talk, but isn’t number 1 to continue the conversation?

“Ｇｌ、くぁｆおへｂｍｐでみょｍ (Today’s weather is nice, isn’t it……?)”

“? I, I’m sorry, but I have to go now.”

With eyes as if she was looking at a weirdo, the woman left.

Under such circ.u.mstances, I couldn’t stay calm, and my words weren’t understood.

I *botoboto* returned to the open cafe and sat on a chair.

“So you failed……”

Jeko makes an unfortunate expression.

“Hey, what was with that card!?”

“Since I didn’t know the conversation partner, I prepared phrases that could be used in any situation, but……”

They might be able to be used in any situation, but since it wouldn’t continue the conversation it’s meaningless.

Since I’m talking to a stranger, they’d be troubled if I just started talking about the weather.

“You’re fired.”

“Wa,Wait, isn’t that a little fast!?”

“I can’t feel any possibilities from your support.”

Jeko is hanging his head, then fires up again, and looks at me.

“Then let me try.”

“Hou, then go ahead.”

I don’t expect much, but for the time being, I’ll let him try.

“Hey.”

“Ah, yes, what?”

Jeko spoke to a girl who seemed to taking a break.

‘Hey’ is hopeless. He already has a yellow card.

“Are you free?”

“Well, I am right now……”

“Then come with me.”

Jeko grabs the girl’s hand.

“Ah, what are you doing all of a sudden!? Let go!”

Naturally, the girl resists him.

“Chi. Don’t be so noisy.”

“Hey, someone, someone!”

“Your yelling is annoying. Clench your teeth!”

Jeko raises his hand overhead.

“You clench your teeth!”

“Buho!”

By my uppercut, Jeko draws a parabola in the sky, thrusts into the ground head first.

“Please excuse me, young lady.”

Saying that, I hurriedly ran away with Jeko.

For the time being, we evacuated to the meal area of the Adventurer’s Guild.

It was close by to the scene.

There, the questioning begins.

“What was with that att.i.tude?”

“It’s the solution I came up with.”

“To what?”

“To you being weak to women.”

It didn’t seem solved at all.

When I tilt my head, Jeko confidently declares.

“You’re weak with women, so I thought that if you heard a woman getting beaten, you’d naturally overcome your weakness.”

“c.r.a.p.”

I’m shocked that he even thought of trying out this dangerous idea in the field.

“Have you done it before?”

“No. I tried to once, but I was stopped by Julius-sama.”

Good job old man. You’re too excellent.

“For now, violence against women is prohibited. That’s an absolute order.”

“B,but……then I don’t know what I should tell you to say.”

“Try telling me how to ask, pay the price, persuade.”

“I, I understand.”

Jeko is sort of *shun* doing something.

“Aren’t you talking about something really dangerous?”

Auretta finds me, and cheerfully comes over.

“Wh,who is this?”

Jeko is acting suspicious, and his eyes are *kyorokyoro* moving around.

In other words, now that his mask is taken off, he’s fragile.

However, I couldn’t just leave such a dangerous thought alone.

Many of the people who did DV in my previous world were addicts, or had mental problems.

I introduce Jeko and Auretta.

“I, I see, she’s a human cooperator. Nice to meet you.”

Jeko lowers his head.

“If it’s about getting used to women, I’ll do anything to help.”

“It’s a training to talk to unknown women. I’ve already become able to talk to women I’m used to.”

“Isn’t that just shyness……?”

I suddenly notice now that Auretta has pointed it out.

“There might be elements of that too.”

After talking with Auretta for a while, I return to the Dark Temple.

When I return to the Dark Temple, Adrigori comes to my side as if he were waiting for me.

“How was it?”

“It was bad. Jeko is fired.”

“I knew it……please take me next time.”

I catch a glance of a confident Adrigori.

There’s no doubt that he’s not good with women either.

Why are you so confident?

Conversely, this is also suspicious.

I might need to check it out.

“……Let me think about it.”

Saying that, I decided to take a break.

I wasn’t physically tired at all, but I was mentally exhausted.
