Reawaken the World

Evaluation of Shijima (Part 1)

"Akira immediately moved to the bathroom with a shower after she returned from Shizuka's shop. This room was quite spacious compared to his previous room. He put his things in this room and said to Alpha in a serious tone."

 

(“Alpha, I want to make sure of one thing, we rest today, right? No, we will rest today, I will not accept any complaints. ”) 

"Ts: This code is the sign → (“..... ”) to show the conversation bubble."

"Alpha smiled and replied."

 

[Don't worry, we'll rest today.]

"Ts: this code → [....... ]mark to indicate special speech bubble 'nano' or mechanical device."

(“Well then, I guess I'll go and take a shower.”) 

"About looking happy as she headed to the bathroom, but suddenly Alpha stopped her."

 

[If you want a long, long shower, you better finish all the rest of the day.]

 

(“Business? Is there anything I need to do?”) 

 

[You put your bike in Sheryl's place yesterday, remember? Since you don't say how long you'll be leaving your bike with him, he may misunderstand and think that you'll soon take back that bike. So I think it's a good idea if you go out there and explain it to him. Not to mention you still have 500,000 Aurum debts to pay. If you delay paying that debt, the peaceful situation we have today may be ruined. So I think you better pay that debt right away.]

 

"About, who had already decided to take a bath, hesitated."

 

(“... Can't it wait any longer?”) 

 

[I won't force you, but it could cause some trouble if you keep putting it off, you know?]

 

"Alpha said it lightly while smiling as if it was nothing to worry about. But Akira was worried instead and decided to do so immediately."

 

"About dragging his feet as he walked through the slum city. It was because he had filled his bag with more medicine than usual, plus he was carrying 2 AAH assault rifles and 1 CWH anti-material rifle."

 

"The augmented mesh, of course, helps him in carrying all that equipment, but carrying a lot of stuff makes it harder to control the augmented suits. Although it would be easy to do so with Alpha's support, he practiced walking without any support at all. Therefore, Akira has trouble walking."

 

(“Walking is hard enough. Maybe I should have left the CWH anti-material rifle. ”) 

 

[No, it shouldn't. You will be fighting more battles in the future where you have to use that rifle, so you have to get used to it from now on. You don't want to fight that mechanical monster with an AAH rifle anymore, do you?]

"Ts: this code → [....... ]mark to indicate special speech bubble 'nano' or mechanical device."

"About remembering all the hardships he faced yesterday and smiling bitterly."

 

(“You are correct . I just keep going and buying it. So I guess I will work hard until at least I can use it smoothly. ”) 

 

"He then continued to slowly walk through the slums. An inexperienced Hunter who had difficulty handling his new equipment, it was a common sight among Hunters. But even so, most of the people in the shanty town would step aside and make way for Akira. After all, for a commoner, choosing to fight against someone equipped with an augmented suit and carrying a large anti-monster rifle on his back was the same as committing suicide."

 

"To avoid people's attention, Akira walks through the back alley of the shantytown. But he didn't realize that the people around him were actually avoiding him."

 

"When Akira arrived at Sheryl's place, she looked very pleased and invited her to her private room. He then casually closed the door. Since they were the only ones in her room, she casually hugged Akira from the front as soon as she put her things down."

 

"About somehow expecting this just sighed and said."

 

(“Can you release me for now?”) 

 

(“It's okay, isn't it? Yesterday you left as soon as you arrived, so from yesterday's portion as well. ”) 

 

(“I don't understand what part you're talking about, but I'm here because there's something I want to tell you. So, put this off, right? ”) 

 

(“I understand, but I can continue after that, right?”) 

 

"Sheryl then got off from Akira and looked at him, she looked satisfied as she got Akira's appointment."

 

"When Akira realizes that he may have to keep dealing with Sheryl's behavior from now on, he starts to view her as a troublesome girl."

 

"After resetting the atmosphere, Akira took a seat across the table from Sheryl. He grabbed 500,000 Aurums from inside his backpack before casually putting them on the table."

 

(“This is the rest of the payment for Shijima. So take this money and give it to him. ”) 

"Ts: This code is the sign → (“..... ”) to show the conversation bubble."

"Sheryl looked surprised. For him and the other kids, it was a huge amount of money. He was worried about whether he should do dangerous things to earn this money, so he couldn't help but ask Akira."

 

(“Uhmmm, are you okay? They have not asked us to pay the rest, so I think there will be no problem delaying the payment for later. ”) 

 

(“I got quite a lot of money from work yesterday. Compared to the total reward, this was only a small amount, so there was no need to worry. ”) 

 

"It felt a little strange when he said that casually."

 

"According to Alpha, even 12,000,000 Aurum is just a dime. So 500,000 Aurums, even more, change the reserves to it. So, Akira felt that the money in front of him right now was not a large sum."

 

"About realizing that the boy inside him who was shaken at the sight of 12,000,000 Aurums had disappeared completely. But whether it's a sign of growth or a sign that his money has been blunted, or whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, Akira doesn't know for sure."

 

"Sheryl smiled while still looking surprised."

 

(“I understand, I'll give it to Shijima. ”) 

 

(“And also, about bicycles, because the inn I was staying in did not have a parking lot, I could not take my bike there. So like, for now, am I allowed to leave the bike here? ”) 

 

(“You can leave it here anytime you want. We will stay safe for you no matter how long it is. Not to mention if it makes you come to this place more often, it will help the security of this place as well. ”) 

 

(“Is that so? Fine thank you.”) 

 

"Sheryl looked very happy from the outside, but on the inside, she thought of many things. The last time she met Akira in her room, it was a small and cheap room, and now, Akira even called out a little 500,000 Aurum. But even so, he remained in an inn where he could not carry his bicycle. Sheryl was trying to analyze Akira's words deeply."

 

(“That's all I have to tell you today. Do you have anything you need to report to me?”) 

 

"When Akira said that Sheryl just put aside all her questions for now."

 

(“I have nothing to report for now. Is that all? ”) 

 

 

(“... It's a pretty hard fabric. ”) 

 

(“After all it is clothes that are added. So it's normal that it's harder than regular cloth. ”) 

 

(“So ... Didn't you take it off?”) 

 

(“No, thank you. ”) 

 

(“It's okay, isn't it? It's not that you're going to lose anything. ”) 

 

(“No, I will, if I take off the augmented suit, my physical ability will be reduced. ”) 

 

(“But if we keep this up, we have to stay like this longer, you know?”) 

 

(“Hah? Why?”) 

 

(“Because this fabric will reduce my satisfaction. ”) 

 

"About frowning her looking annoyed and a little troubled, on the other hand, Sheryl locked her gaze at him while smiling brightly. There was an unusual awkward atmosphere between them as both of them looked into each other's eyes. But then Akira broke his sight first."

 

"About sighing deeply and taking off the top of his plus coat. Sheryl seems happier than ever because she still clings to him. Her face was filled with all sorts of expressions like happiness, peace, happiness, pleasure. He even let out strange sounds from time to time."

 

"Sheryl felt something in her getting more and more satisfied."

 

"About thinking that it doesn't mean she's missing something, or rather, she actually doesn't care, not to mention it looks like Sheryl will let it go if she lets it go for a while. So he just kept quiet and let her stick to him. But then he noticed that Alpha was smiling seductively at him, so his face immediately frowned a little."

 

(“...What?”) 

 

[It's okay . I don't know why, but he seems to like you a lot. As expected, you are also interested in this kind of thing, aren't you?]

"Ts: this code → [....... ]mark to indicate special speech bubble 'nano' or mechanical device."

(“Why did it get like that ..?”) 

"Ts: This code is the sign → (“..... ”) to show the conversation bubble."

"about and then he breathed."

 

(“Sheryl. You should stop immediately. I'm still tired from yesterday so I plan to relax and take a long shower for today, you know? ”) 

 

(“If we take a shower, we have one too, you know? Would you like to try a shower here?”) 

 

(“Eh? You shower here?”) 

 

(“Yes, it's quite a spacious bathtub so I thought you could really enjoy swimming. ”)

 

(“Although this building looks neglected, there is even a bathroom, huh? But even if you have a facility, what about bills for hot water? Are you sure they don't stop the hot water?”) 

 

(“From what I heard, to prevent slum city residents from causing riots due to lack of water, to, and their own concern that the slums might be the source of the disease and spread to the lower districts, the city management decided to continue supplying water to the slums with water. You don't know about this?”) 

 

(“I also know about this because I used to clean my body with water even when I was living in the back alley of the slum city. But I didn't know that they also provided hot water to the slum town, ahhh, so that's why you could make hot coffee, huh? ”) 

('Very' girls are blanketing: Can't they boil water to make hot coffee?)

 

"The data of landowners in the slum city is never clear. So there is no clear address where cities should send their bills for water use. Nevertheless, city managers still supply water to slums with water to avoid dissent, not to mention they can estimate the number of residents in slums and their work from water use."

 

"But then, depending on the situation, the city can stop or limit the water supply at any time. The free water supply is matched by reputation and profit in mind to prevent the slums from growing larger than they should or even set aside the population in the slums."

 

(“Because not many buildings in the slums have bathing facilities, this base is quite famous, you know. Sibea and his friends took this building by force and made it their base before we inherited the place from them. If it wasn't for your support, we'd be kicked out of this building right now. That's why, because it's thanks to you, you can shower here whenever you want. I'll tell the kids to prepare the bathroom if you want to enter, so, how?”) 

 

(“No, I'll go back to my room and shower there. ”) 

 

(“I'll also help you wash your body, you know?”) 

 

(“... I rented the room because of the shower, so I'll take a shower there. Not to mention I want to relax in my own room as well. ”) 

 

(“Is that so? Too bad. ”) 

 

"To be honest, Sheryl was really planning to go showering with Akira. But he noticed a small change in the man's behavior that triggered his vigilance, so he stopped suppressing him. Akira refuses her offer just because she cannot trust him completely. After all, he could not get into the bathtub with his extra clothes or while carrying his rifle. Even at this moment, the reason why he could take off the top of his suit was augmented just because he was confident he could handle if a fight suddenly occurred here. Sheryl understands this, that's why she's retreating."

 

('... He still doesn't fully trust me, does he?') 

"Ts: this code is the sign → (‘......’) to indicate a thought or word bubble that appears in someone's mind."

"Although Sheryl understood that it was only to be expected, she was still a little frustrated as she tightened her arms around Akira."

 

"Suddenly someone knocked on the door of his room. Sheryl looked upset and answered the knock."

 

(“What?”) 

 

"Erio gasped when he heard Sheryl's annoyance in her voice. He then answered Sheryl's question while still looking terrified."

 

(“Bos. Shijima came here with his men. He said he wanted to see you. ”) 

 

(“. ”) 

 

"Sheryl thinks that she has to do her job properly as the Boss to win Akira's trust. So he reluctantly parted from Akira."

 

"Although it is difficult to call it a meeting room, there are at least tables and some chairs. Inside the room, Sheryl, Akira and Shijima sat together. The two bodyguards behind Shijima were fully armed and looked solemn but relaxed at the same time. While Erio and Alicia who are behind Sheryl look very nervous."

 

"A little boy from Sheryl's gang walks in and puts coffee on the table before quickly getting out of the room thinking that his job is done. Erio and Alicia felt betrayed when they glared at the child."
