Maid Will Go On Through Thick And Thin! Chapter 13

Hmmm, well, the number of days that has pa.s.sed makes sense.
But there’s only dinner for one. Ah well, I’ll hurry up and make more.
But at these times, you must hurry up and open the door first!
“Welcome ba……who’re you?”
“Eh!? Maito-san!?”
“State your rank and designation……no, your cla.s.s, club and full name.”
“Eh, Maid-san? Uwah, what should I do, cu, no, er, not tha”
“Skin? Time up. Please leave.” (T/N: skin=kawa, that guy failed to say the ii part)
At these times, you must hurry up and shut the door!

dont let strangers in!

“Wa, wait! Maito-san! It’s me! f.u.kuyama! From the same cla.s.s!”
Noisy, stop hitting the door. In the first place, how many guys do you think there was in the cla.s.s.
Do you think I remember the faces and names of all my cla.s.smates?
……it’s not something I can say proudly! Sorry!
“Hey, could it be you don’t remember……”
A—h, mhm, I feel like there was someone like that. Can’t be helped. Let’s open the door.
“Of course not, f.u.kuyama-kun, how could I not remember!”
Of course I don’t remember though!

like me!

f.u.kuyama-kun is that honour student kind of guy.
My only connection to him is being in the same cla.s.s.
We never even spoke to each other.
……come to think of it, this guy was often in the library, so I actually saw his face quite a bit.
A—h, yes yes, I remember now, vaguely.
I loved this comfortable desk in a dim, warm corner of the library, but at some point this guy reserved that spot so I got chased out.
Mhm. I was stunned when he suddenly came and monopolised that desk n the corner even though I was there. Why did you intentionally come all the way here.
But thanks to that, I ended up finding an even more comfortable corner.
Fufufu, n.o.body would think that someone would bring a chair to sit at the encyclopedia shelf and use an empty s.p.a.ce on the shelf as a desk. Fufufu.
nice
And based on appearance, f.u.kuyama-kun feels like a [Knight].
His outfit is similar to Kadomi-kun’s. Basically, caped armour with sword and s.h.i.+eld and a helmet.
Since he looks like he came alone, his combat ability must be quite high. How enviable.
And this guy is eating the dinner I made for myself.
I’m remaking my share. d.a.m.n it.
“Maito-san is good at cooking. It’s very delicious.”
“I see, that’s good. Then when f.u.kuyama-kun was thrown here, where were you in the school? And where did you end up?”
f.u.kuyama-kun made a disappointed expression for some reason, but this is extremely important.
If he came from an area we haven’t been to, that information would be quite valuable.
Even without that, there is a chance we can understand something about this world’s rules.
“Ah, at that time, I was in some corridor on the 2nd floor of the north building. I was on the way back after going to ask a teacher about something I didn’t understand in English.”
I see. What an honour student.
“Then the ground shook like there was an earthquake and after it became very bright, I was in water. After getting out of the water, I could finally tell it was a river and was shocked because I had never seen that place.”
“River? Is it south from here?”
“No idea, I don’t know the directions. Sorry.”
It probably is that one.
Which means even though the cla.s.srooms were thrown here as cla.s.srooms, the corridors disappeared, or became the river.
Which means the cla.s.srooms are probably spread out along the river, so that might be a reference point when searching.
hmm…makes sense
“Your equipment? Where was it?”
“Equipment? Ah, the armour and sword? I was already holding on to it when I came out of the river, or more like, I was wearing it.”
Nuuun, then it’s not that equipment is always in cleaning cabinets.
Actually, since they can’t get a base, people who were in the corridors must have it tough.
rip
“After getting out of the river and walking a bit, I found the English office, so I’ve been staying there.”
“Were there teachers? Other students?”
“There wasn’t a single teacher. But there are 5 students other than me. Mizusawa-san, Takahas.h.i.+-kun, Arino-san, Kousaki-kun and Ogino-kun. Eeerm, they’re from a different cla.s.s, so Maito-san doesn’t know them right?”
“Mhm, never heard of them.”
Ah, not a single teacher, so that’s just about confirmed.
“By the way, how about Maito-san? Were you here alone all this time?”
“Ah, no, I was in this lab, so I started out with other club members. After that we steadily found others and increased our numbers, right now there’s 6 other than me.”
“Eh, but I don’t see them.”
If you do, you would be clairvoyant.
“Right now, they’re camping out to the east, exploring.”
“Then, why is only Maito-san……?”
Dammit, I knew he would definitely say that! d.a.m.n i—t, rubbing salt in people’s wounds!
“……I am the only one whose abilities, from physical to combat ones, are all low, I would end up holding everyone back.”
“Eh……”
D, don’t make that expression! I’m the one who wants to make that expression!
Dammit, I really should have shut him out!
But as I was thinking that.
idiocy strikes
“Th, that’s horrible! Leaving you alone in a place full of monsters! What are they going to do if something happened to a girl on her own!”
……hm? This is strange, somehow, f.u.kuyama-kun’s train of thought……is quite far off the rails.

straight into the canyon!

“Wait, could it be, Maito-san, you’ve been shut in here until now?”
“No, I’ve gone out or had them let me out a few times.”
Thanks to that, I have bay laurels and mints now.
……how to put it, those guys, it’s not that they don’t have the knowledge, but……they fall behind me in terms of looking at gra.s.s and judging in an instant whether it’s edible. Even more so when it comes to spices.
What if this was a maid correction? Or is it just me?
……it’s probably just me.
“Let you, out? That sounds like Maito-san alone cannot go out……”
“Ah, that’s right. It’s dangerous for me to go out alone, so while everyone is exploring during the day, I stay in here and do housework and stuff.”
“All this time!? What’s with that! That’s cruel! In the first place, housework……it can’t be that you’ve been worked here without going out at all!? All alone!?”
Nonononononono, hey, you, isn’t your thoughts going too far off?
What do you mean worked. Are you denying my free will?
“No, It was just simple distribution of roles.”
In fact, the situation is more like, I’m sorry for staying shut in the safe indoors.
It seems he doesn’t understand that.
“But, not being able to go out at all, and on top of that, even though you cannot go out you are left all alone, that’s too cruel! Isn’t there plenty of other ways, like leaving someone with Maito-san!?”
……hmm, what’s this, this feeling of pus.h.i.+ng against nothing.
It’s not like I’m unhappy about this environment……ah, no, I do feel unhappy about not having combat ability.
But it’s not like I’m particularly unhappy about this environment itself. In fact, I’m sorry for having it so cosy.
I love the indoors. Viva hikikomori. Hikikomori Banzai.
“Hey, Maito-san, er……won’t you, come out?”
“No.”
I’ll die if I do.
“Er, I’ll be with you, so I will protect you not matter what happens. And I think it’s better than being shut in here.”
……ee—h…… This guy, he doesn’t understand how much of a burden I am.
I’m at the level where safety is a.s.sured only with Suzumoto, Hagasaki-kun, President and Kadomi-kun with me you know?
I don’t think you can do anything on your own……
“……furthermore, there’s 2 girls over here, so I think it’ll be more comfortable for Maito-san. Among the members of the chemistry club, Maito-san s the only girl right?”
Heeh, it’s as he says. But I definitely won’t be comfortable with girls I don’t know.
Particularly the modern kind of girls, I’ll definitely die from stress.
“I really don’t think it’s good to be among guys only.”
“Ah, we are sleeping separately.”
After we got the lecture hall.
“That’s not the problem! Eeerm, er, so, yeah. Won’t you, come over?”
……the answer is no, no use arguing about it. But there’s something I became a little curious about.
“Then a few questions. First. Why is f.u.kuyama-kun moving alone even though there are others?’
“Because I’m strong enough to do something on my own, so I’m moving alone. For the others, Arino-san and Kousaki-kun are moving as a pair, then the last 3 as a group.”
“Second, what are the professions of the girls?”
“Mizusawa-san is a magician, Arino-san is a thief.”
……so it wasn’t that girls was all non-combat professions……
I had been hoping for that a little…… ah how cruel.
“Third. What is the area you all have moved in?”
“We explored the area around the English office and have been gathering food. Probably in about a 5km radius. Today, I came a bit further.”
“Why did you go further at night……”
“Eh, because, less monsters come out at night.”
……eh?

wait isn’t it the opposite

“E, err……they don’t come out at night?”
“Eh, mhm. There’s less of them and the chances of them coming in a group is lower, so it’s better to explore at night……could it be, you didn’t know?”
I didn’t know that!
No matter how you think about it, night should be something like, monsters becoming more ferocious or strong monsters coming out, isn’t that normal! Who would realise that!
E—h, then do we need to adjust our lifestyle pattern?
Hm, that was quite useful information.

well, doesn’t affect Maito much tho

“That’s all my questions, but I’m not coming. They’re coming back either tomorrow or the day after anyway.”
“But, Maito-san, if you’re gonna run then now is your only chance.”
NANI? Run, run……from what?
“I feel like, isn’t this situation, DV?”
“I think that’s different.”
This is neither domestic nor is it violence, so it’s wrong on two counts.
“No, it’s certainly not a household so it’s not domestic, but that’s not it. Maito-san can’t go out freely right?”
“Because it’s dangerous.”
“That’s the point! Outside is probably not as dangerous as Maito-san thinks. Even though it’s not that dangerous, aren’t the other chemistry club people lying to you that it’s dangerous and keeping you locked up?”
Hmmm, even if you say that.
“Even if that is the case it’s fine. I like the indoors anyway.”
“That way of thinking is dangerous! DV affects your way of thinking.”
E, even if you say that……
If you put it that way, learning and growing wiser changes your way of thinking, so is that to be avoided too? I felt like asking that. I won’t ask though.
“So I really feel that Maito-san should escape from here. If the situation changed a little, I think you’ll understand how abnormal this situation is.”
No—……even if you say that…… Eer, how to put it, eer……this guy, is very, annoying.
“So, yeah? Let’s go.”
“No.”
I already feel like just denying it no matter how correct it is if it is something he says.
This b.a.s.t.a.r.d keeps talking like I’m some idiot that was brainwashed.
“……but still, mhm. For Maito-san’s sake, I think going out is better. Mhm. Sorry.”
“Wai”

what!

f.u.kuyama-kun, no matter what, I think ignoring my will and, a punch to the stomach isn’t good.

the end

This idiot. What’s this. Oliver no.2? Nah, Oliver isn’t this bad. He at least respects Cecilia’s will. Even if he misinterprets it occasionally. But you can’t misinterpret no.
