My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero’s

Happy Monday!

ED: Ignite

I woke up later that day.

Kurou and Yoru tried to pacify me who wanted to immediately go search for Amelia.

Its getting dark out. Certainly, this was the ideal time for assassins, but dont forget that monsters come out at this time as well.

Youre still not completely recovered. Go sleep.

I could not understand how these two people were so calm, I was irritated by the fact that I couldnt go to Amelia.

How, how are you so calm?

I punched the wall, trying to release my pent up frustration.

I understood that I was just taking my anger out on them.

My current circumstances were due to the fact that I used shadow magic without thinking of the consequences, and I knew that the two of them were also extremely worried about Amelia.

However, I couldnt help it.

Im not calm at all, Master-dono.

I wish I was calm. Assassin of Darkness-dono?

Growing irritated by Kurous aloof reply, just as I was about to say something, something caught my attention.

Assassin of Darkness?

I was so agitated that I unwittingly let out a stupid voice.

TN: ok, so the first Assassin of Darkness was in kanji while the second was in hiragana. Usually, when the same words are said twice but in different writing systems, it means that one of the characters do not understand what it meant or is confused. In this sentence, it actually says that he was so agitated that it (his words) unwittingly became hiragana. Since leaving it like that would make no sense and hiragana basically meaning simple or ordinary, it ended up being what I have here.

I was so confused, and couldnt think clearly.

TN: here, he actually says that he couldnt convert the hiragana into kanji

As my frustration grew more apparent, Kurou looked at me and grinned.

Ever since Ive met him, Ive heard about Kurou being a sarcastic person, but this was the first time Ive seen him smile in such a way that it sent chills running down my spine.

that seems to be Master-donos nickname.

Yoru said the one thing that I didnt want to hear.

This guy, did he do it on purpose?

My close friend, Kyousuke, unconsciously said things that others didnt want to bring up, perhaps Yoru was like that as well.

It seems that everyone saw you using the shadow magic to exterminate the monsters from the hill that they evacuated to. That was how you, a yellow ranked adventurer, gained a nickname. Moreover, it was officially recognized by the guild. good for you. You received a very cool name.

Kurou clapped me on the shoulder, and then left the room.

I was extremely perplexed.

Well, for an assassin to stand out, what am I going to do.

That seems to be the case. Maa, I dont think that Master-dono would be lacking in that area compared to other assassins.

Yoru said this as if to follow up, but that was not what I was unhappy about.

what was that.

Its that nickname that was so chuunibyou!

Or rather, what are you talking about!

This was the first time Ive heard it!!!

Why does such a thing exist??

my classmates, can neverrrrr find out. Especially Kyousuke or the hero.

Kyousuke would definitely, expressionlessly say something like good for you.

That would be what he feels from the bottom of his heart too, so that just makes it worse.

On the other hand, the hero would just make a face.

After telling him about the circumstances, he would undoubtedly say, thats unfortunate.

That would just make me angry, but afterwards Id expect that he would be questioned by the girls in the class about our conversations. Of course, he would tell them everything and it would be common knowledge to all of our classmates.

I sighed as I buried my face in my hands.

haa. Naa, Yoru, did anything else other than that happen.

No, but the Assassin of Darkness is the talk of the town, you know? Its going to be difficult to get rid of it.

Yoru tilted his head, not understanding the weight of the matter nor why I disliked the nickname so much.

Is that so. is it ok for an Assassin to stand out. or rather, my magic is notDarkness, butShadow.

I could sense that my shadow agreed with me.

Right? You think so too, right?

Looking at it from afar, it seems to be darkness. In the first place, shadow magic is an unknown magic. Even if it were a shadow, at the time, the sky was completely enveloped in darkness, so naturally their assumption would be darkness magic.

Besides, was there a more fitting nickname other than Assassin of Darkness?, Yoru tilted his head, inquiring this.

Sh*t.

I couldnt argue against that.

It seems that there was nothing else I could do about a chuunibyou thing such as being an assassin on top of possessing shadow-attribute magic.

If I return to my original world, sealing their mouths would be my top priority.

today, I will be good and sleep. But, tomorrow, Im going to get up early, ok!

When I covered myself with the quilt in a huff, I became drowsy once again.

It seems that my body was still in need of rest.

I was somewhat displeased with the fact that someone other than me understood the condition of my body, but I knew that he was just concerned about me, so I endured it.

Come to think of it, even in the other world, there were a lot of times where I would cover myself with the quilt whenever I was frustrated or angry and the fall asleep, leaving things unresolved.

As expected, when I became a high school student, my younger sister Yuri told me that I was being childish, and then I stopped doing that.

Yes, yes.

you only need to say it once.

I absentmindedly said that, and then laid my head down onto the bed once again.

theres a huge backlash from the magic depletion. Much less in Master-donos case where he was on the verge of death at one point. Its nothing that could be recovered from in just one or two days.

Muttering this, Yoru left the room as well.

Although one might say that the shadow magic replenished itself, it was only the bare minimum.

Since it was only enough so that he wouldnt die.

Akiras body desired magic.

To the point where there was a feeling of magic being extracted when one stood nearby.

It wasnt actually being extracted, but its unknown what would happen if he was walking in the middle of town like that.

Right now, he could only take magic replenishing potions a little at a time, and then recover with sleep.

Akira had recovered seventy percent of his magic.

Wasnt it just fine with this much, that was what he had thought, but he would like to get rid of as many uncertain variables as possible before rescuing Amelia, even if it was just one.

Akira understood that as well, but he was unable to hold back the desire to go to where Amelia was, and he fell into a light sleep.

And so, what normally took one day to be completed ended up taking two, three days.

quickly, quickly.
