Chapter 147 I want to talk to you about 'OVERLORD'
In the class, there is a very strange girl. Every time after class, she is seen sleeping on the support table or reading a book with her head down. She hardly communicates with the classmates in the class...
How long have you been in the same class with her? It seems that you have been in the same class with her since elementary school, right? It feels like a bad fate. If it was placed in a TV series, she and I should become good friends and best friends, right? After all, we can
It is indeed rare to have been in the same class for such a long time.
However, I clearly remember that over the years from elementary school to now, I probably haven't spoken more than ten sentences to her. After all, she and I are from two different worlds.
This is not to boast, but since I entered this school, I have been quite successful in the class. This is largely due to my parents who gave me a good face!
Although she is not very beautiful, at least if she dresses up, she can be used as a talking point among the boys in the school, so she feels quite good about herself. There are many people in the class and school with whom she can chat.
friend.
On the other hand, her appearance is not bad, but she doesn't dress up at all, and she wears everything very casually. Coupled with her withdrawn personality, she almost never has any friends.
Originally, she and I were like two parallel lines, and I didn't take her seriously at all. At most, when I was chatting with my friends, someone accidentally mentioned that there was such a gloomy girl in the class. But what happened?
After that incident... I started to pay attention to her...
That incident is shameful to say...if it hadn't happened, I wouldn't have felt any guilt towards her now, nor would I have felt so uncomfortable after she was gone.
On the day when that incident happened, because the teacher was dragging the class and I had made an appointment with someone else, I packed up my things in a smoky mood and wanted to rush out of the classroom after class.
As a result, when passing by her desk, she seemed to be in a hurry and stood up in a hurry. She didn't notice someone behind her, and ended up... bumping into her.
The collision was nothing to do with her, but she did fall like a dog and the things she was holding flew out and scattered all over the floor...
She also noticed the few comics and novels scattered around. They were a few girls' comics. She was a little surprised when she saw these comics, because she also followed that set of comics, and the few books in her hand were still full of them.
The latest one.
Although nowadays comics can be read online, I still prefer to read physical books, so... I planned to apologize to her, take the opportunity to talk to her, and see if I could borrow it from her to read.
However, when the naughty classmates noticed that the things scattered in her hands were actually comics and novels, they started to make a fuss.
All kinds of rather excessive words...all kinds of metaphors were used, such as a otaku who is addicted to a nerd...a otaku who has become corrupted and so on.
Seeing the reaction of the classmates in the class, I immediately gave up the idea of apologizing to her, let alone talking to her to borrow books.
Because... I don’t want to be like her and be given those unpleasant titles by my classmates. I have finally made so many friends, and I can’t let myself become the laughing stock of others just for reading a few comics.
But... you have to say something when you bump into her, right? So... I accidentally joined the ranks of her classmates who made fun of her. I understand... In the micro society of the class, it is very scary to be labeled as an alternative by the public.
of.
She was teased by her classmates, but she was not angry. Instead, she turned around and apologized to herself. Then she quickly packed up the comics and left the classroom quickly...
It was obviously him who bumped into her, causing her to be teased by her classmates, but she apologized to herself. At that time... she felt quite guilty and unhappy.
After this time, she got the nickname of gloomy otaku in the class. She didn't care about it herself, she was still the same. No matter how others made fun of her, she just smiled and passed it off.
However, her weak way of coping only made those bad guys worse. She was originally called a home girl, but in the end she was called a widow.
Everyone would enjoy teasing her when nothing happened. Anyway, she wouldn't be angry, let alone refute, so forget it. The verbal teasing eventually turned into behavioral bullying.
More than once, I saw the bad girls in the class finding all kinds of inexplicable excuses to bully her because of something that didn't go their way.
That's okay, but what's more, she once hurt her finger because of a trivial matter.
However, he, the chief culprit, could only watch her being bullied and could not help at all, because he was afraid that if he stood up to speak for her, those people would think that he and her were in the same group.
.
Will those incidents of bullying others also happen to me? When I think of this, I get scared...
But every time I see her being bullied, I feel more guilty. At least... I have to apologize to her.
But I said it was an apology. Now because of this guilt, I don’t know how to talk to her. Every time I bump into her on the way to or from school, those words of apology cannot come out of my mouth.
However, she always greeted him with a smile, and she didn't seem to take it to heart at all.
As time went by, I realized that continuing like this was not an option, so I thought of other ideas. Since she likes comics and novels, let's use this as a breakthrough!
So I began to deliberately observe her, and then noticed that she seemed to like a novel called "OVERLORD", because every time I saw her pick up this novel, she would read it over and over again, so I also
I plan to read this novel and use this as an opportunity to chat with her.
The result... I read the novel and found it quite subtle. To be honest, I don’t really like this type of novel. Mainly because I don’t understand many of the plots, and I don’t quite understand why she likes this kind of pretentiousness.
novel.
Since I have no interest in it, I just forced myself to read a few books online, which I feel should be enough for conversational purposes.
Then, that day... I found the right opportunity and saw that she had the latest volume of "OVERLORD" in her hand. I could see that she was very happy, so I just waited until after school and took the opportunity to talk to her!
He had been following her after school, waiting hard for the opportunity to come up and talk to her. After all, it would be bad for someone he knew to see him talking to her, but... this opportunity would never come.
