Disappointing Teleportation Magic ~ Even Though The Movement Distance Is Only 1 Millimeter, I Will Rise Through Ingenuity ~ - Chapter 28.2

※Still in Kawamoto’s perspective.

After returning to the dormitory, he went around warning the other boys.

Kirikaze was the scum of the earth, but if they intervened, their lives would be in danger.

If they intervened, they had to be prepared to lose their lives as Matsui and the others had. Sawatari’s words and the reality that Matsui and the others did not return only intensified the hatred for Kirikaze, but also bred resignation.

In the end, only those with rare abilities enjoyed the benefits, while ordinary ones like us, with no special abilities, struggled for our lives.

The soldiers who trained us insisted that achieving military success would lead to a good home, good food, and beautiful women… But for Sawatari and me, it had the opposite effect.

Because we were kicked and excised, even if we achieved military success or earned money, we could never engage in sexual activity again.

Whether it was because my testicles were removed or because of the makeshift sutures, I experienced excruciating pain upon erection.

With no way home, having lost my beloved woman and unable to engage in sexual activity ever again, it was impossible not to despair about the future.

I understood Sawatari’s feelings of choosing suicide all too well.

I myself had lost sight of what hope to live for.

But there was one thing I clung to—if it came to it, I would stop Kirikaze’s breath even if it meant stabbing each other… But even that resolve seemed to waver as rumors spread.

The scum Kirikaze had supposedly defeated Dorotheus.

“Of course, at first, none of our classmates believed any rumors.

Kirikaze was useless, so we kicked him out, and ever since being summoned to this world, Dorotheus has been a symbol of terror.

Right after being summoned, he literally cut down Yamagishi, who was thought to be the toughest in the class, in one blow.

Despite his huge body that even wrestlers would flee from barefoot, he moved with astonishing speed, swinging a sword as big as a tree branch.

No one dared to oppose a man who killed Yamagishi without changing his expression.

While we sometimes threaten to kill during arguments, it’s just talk; we couldn’t actually do it.

No one can oppose someone who calmly takes lives without warning.

Probably, it was the guys guarding Kirikaze who killed Dorotheus… That became our common understanding, but it’s indeed very difficult to lay a hand on them.

Even Dorotheus would be defeated if he tried to harm Kirikaze.

Even if we tried, the result would be the same.

Maybe even piercing through is impossible.

We can’t return to Japan, we can’t perform as we want even if we get magic, we can’t flirt with a cute girlfriend even if we make achievements, we can’t lay a hand on an irritating guy…

Not being able to even kill Kirikaze, our only hope to live, made me think I might as well die, but I was also furious at the irrationality that wouldn’t go my way.

I don’t care if it’s not Kirikaze anymore. I can’t bear to die without venting my anger on someone, somewhere.

At that moment, the news of the next expedition came.

So far, the exercise has been to go into the forest somewhere and kill monsters, but this time it seems we’re heading to the border with a neighboring country.

I don’t remember the name, nor do I care, but apparently they’re not on good terms with the country to the east.

There’s talk that actual combat might occur, despite the official reason for the expedition being to observe the border due to demands from the First Princess.

Months have passed since we were summoned, and various rumors have started to reach us.

Especially among the girls, rumors seem to be spreading from Kazumi Umino.
