The Archer Of A Fictitious World Chapter 6

Chapter 6 Loner and the surrounding people

"Saki~ We are gathering in front of the plaza again today, alright?"

"Yep, got it. I will head there straight after reaching home."

I answered my friend's invitation.

My name is Saki Fujisawa.

A first year student at Hirasaka High School.

We were talking about the game 'Anadin' which was released about a month ago. Today, the first event since the release will begin.

I am still mid-level so I probably can't do much but… I will do my best.

When my eyes went to the corner of the cla.s.sroom accidentally, I couldn't spot that person's figure there.

Sena Ohinata.

The person who took the 1st place in the previous yearly exam-a very smart person.

It isn't rare for her to take days off.

It seems she has a fragile body so she has been taking days off often.

Maybe because everyone has a hard time starting conversations with her, Ohinata is always by herself. Of course, another reason for that would be that she never comes talking by herself either.

The other day, I mustered up my courage and spoke to her but,

"Ohinata! Congrats on getting number 1!"

"Eh, ah, uu, umm, thank………~~~u…"

She ran away after saying that.

I wonder if I hurt her feelings somehow……

I am thinking of talking to her again next time when I get the opportunity.

My name is Ryouta Iwas.h.i.+mizu.

High school first year.

When I say that, people think I am lying.

Well, it is understandable since no matter how you look at my face, it will look like that of a yakuza's.

But recently I have started playing a VRMMO game.

That way, I thought things wouldn't be so bad even if my appearance was bad.

However, it was wise setting my race as random.

What I got was High Dwarf, a rare race.

It's nice that it's rare and what not but it's a race more suited for cooking.

Being unable to fight, I had no choice but to open up a restaurant.

And what was even worse was choosing tentacle fries to be the first item.

Add that, along with my looks which was even more grim now, n.o.body came close.

I guess I have no choice since it came to this. I will have to be patient with it for a month then make a new character.

It was when I was thinking that.

"Umm, ahh, umm, uhh, hi-hi-hi-hi……"

I heard such a voice. When I raised my head to look, a very pretty green-haired demi-human girl was there.

I was captivated for a while there but soon came to my senses.

I couldn't hear properly but she spoke to me. She must be a customer.

"Miss, would you like one tentacle fry?"

"Ah, um, yes!"

And so, I handed over one tentacle fry.

I could guarantee that the taste was good but I was nervous since this was the first time someone other than me had it.

When I asked her if it was good or not after she had finished eating,

"Ah! Umm, uhh, ah, i-i-i-i-it's… good……"

I am glad. I ended up letting out a sigh of relief. My choice was not wrong.

And then another unbelievable thing happened.

"Umm, uhh, I will…… come… again……"

And the minute she finished saying that, she dashed away at an incredible speed.

I couldn't react.

The day after that and the day after that as well, she really came.

Her voice was still low and she was stuttering but I could hear it all now.

She probably has social anxiety.

Moreover, a rumor-'a pretty demi-human goes there' spread and my shop started flouris.h.i.+ng.

I can't thank her enough. I should ask her name next time.

But, I didn't see her this whole week.

Did she quit?

I am very worried.
