After defeating the demon king in another world and returning to Japan, a dungeon appeared on the ground. - Chapter 93

Chapter 93

“You’re kidding me… what is that…?”

“Just what’s going on…?”

“What happened really…?”

That afternoon, after classes.

Once again, I was attracting attention in the classroom, becoming the subject of everyone’s stares.

Lately, this kind of thing was been happening so often that, annoyingly enough, I’m almost getting used to it.

And meanwhile, the person responsible for all this attention coming towards me… Samejima… approaches me with a smile and reaches out his hand.

“Thank you for your hard work, Ando-sama. I shall carry your things.”

“You shall not do that… Haah…”

I place a hand on my temple and let out a sigh.

Due to my skill, *Counter*, Samejima, who was hit by his own Dominate skill, had now become a completely loyal faithful servant.

His faithfulness was to the point where, like now, he’d make a special trip to the classroom after school just to offer to carry my things.

Seeing him act in a way that’s so unlike the usual with relation to the normal Samejima, my classmates stared at me as if they’re witnessing something strange.

… And getting blasted by all those looks only added to my fatigue.

“What’s with him, like really? He’s acting completely different from lunchtime, onwards” Yotsui says, looking over at Samejima.

“Who knows, something must have happened… I’m leaving now.”

“Ah, wait a min, Ando-san…! Please let me accompany you…!”

“No, thanks!”

I turn down Yotsui, who tried to follow me, and make my way toward the classroom door.

And almost immediately Samejima quickly steps in front of me and starts to escort me.

“Hey now you peeps, get out of the way immediately! Make room! Ando-sama is passing through…!!”

He clears a path for me, pushing the classmates in front of me aside.

“Eek!”

“S-Sorry!!”

Classmates jump aside with startled yelps, watching Samejima with expressions filled with shock and fear.

Surprised to see that the same Samejima, has been completely tamed by me, and then looked at me with awe and inspiration.

“He… he’s actually controlling Samejima-senpai… is that for real…?”

“A-Ando… really, really just what on earth is he…?”

“This is way terrifying… we better stay away from him…”

Their whispers and murmurs reach my ears like hiss.

As I glance at them with a side glance, they immediately look away in a panic and scurry off.

“Ugh… seriously, what should I do about this…”

Seeing how I was being completely misunderstood my classmates, I felt a headache brewing up in my head.

“Enough, Samejima. Stop following me.”

Even after passing through the school gates, Samejima seemed to continue follow me.

His dominate skill, he mentioned that it has a limit of three people, but I wonder how long it lasts.

… Don’t tell me, it’s something permanent, right?

If he keeps following me around, everyone will think I’m a really dangerous person.

I don’t want to stand out any more than I already do.

I need to break him away from me as soon as possible.

“Hey, Samejima, I’m giving you an order.”

“Y-Yes…! What is it?!”

Hearing the word “order,” Samejima stands straight, his eyes sparkling with anticipation.

Looking at that, I give him the order.

“Your service has become a nuisance. Stop serving me from this point onwards.”

“Th-That’s, no…”

A look of utter disappointment crosses Samejima’s face.

He’s truly become a servant who adores his master.

“Then what is this? Are you saying you can’t obey my order?”

“N-No, that’s not something…”

“From now on, I want you to live independently and focus on your life. Stop causing trouble for others and live an honest life. Got it?”

“Y-Yes, if that is your command…”

“Good.”

With that order, I start to walk away.

After this, Samejima doesn’t follow me.

It seems he’s obediently following my command.

“Fuu~…”

I breathed a sigh of relief.

I somehow managed to free myself from Samejima.

With this, as long as the skill’s effect lasts, he should follow my command no matter what.

Once the effect wears off… he might resent me. Probably, he might even come after me again, but if that happens, I’ll deal with it then.

“Now then, time to head home and get ready for some dungeon exploration…”

I hurry home, ready to embark on another day of dungeon exploration.
