I, Who Was Dismissed as Worthless Failure by my Family and Fiancée, Discovered I had Reincarnated as a Game Character I Raised with Great Care and Vowed to Take Control of my Life and Defy Anyone who Opposes Me. - Chapter 20: Oh My, My, My

Chapter 20: Oh My, My, My

I had not only soundproof my room but also set up barriers to prevent anyone from entering. I wondered how Shishiru managed to get in without being detected by the residents.

If I didn’t solve this problem, no matter how many times I drove her away, Shishiru would come back again.

It was just like dealing with G, who moved at high speeds while emitting dark light. Merely exterminating them was pointless, as it was essential to cut off the source of the problem to solve anything.

[EDN: “G” is possible referring to a ground beetle, but hard to tell. We have no context.]

“Hey!! You’re thinking of something incredibly rude right now, aren’t you? It’s written all over your face!”

“Shut up. I’m not so free as to waste my time on you. First of all, why did you act on your own without my permission? And why did you barge into my room without permission? Moreover, how did you manage to enter my room? The barrier was supposed to be impenetrable to someone like you.”

“My, my, does my master not understand such a simple thing?”

Since I had determined that she was an existence equal to G, I decided to eliminate the source of the problem by asking Shishiru how she had managed to get into my room.

One could consider those who could not ask respectfully were merely third-rate individuals.

If it were an important game, even if the opponent made me angry, being able to bow down was the key to living a smooth and long life. And the knowledge I gained by bowing down at that moment would surely help me in various situations in my future life.

I was not the kind of person who got angry at Shishiru’s light provocations.

“Ah, unfortunately, that seems to be the case. As expected of Shishiru. Unlike me, who was born in this world not even 20 years ago, Shishiru has lived for hundreds of years as a great sage, not a foolish demon old hag. I cannot compete with her. Can you please teach me, a foolish person, what I don’t know?”

Ah, that was close. I almost blurted out my inner thoughts, but I managed to lower my head to Shishiru and ask in a way that respected the other person.

“Oh my, my, my! Does my master not even understand such a simple thing? Honestly, so hopeless. Now, I wonder why I was able to come into my master’s room?”

“Ah, I’m just curious. Can you please tell me?”

She was trying to assert her dominance at this opportune moment, which angered me, but if I were to lose my temper here, it would be all for nothing. So I held it in.
