God Bought My Bad Character and Gave Me a Blessing

 Who did this?

“We believe that the recent attack was the work of the circus.”

Gonda, with his hair stroked all back and his eyes glittering, cut him off and began to speak. The earrings in his ears and the necklace were gold. He was in his fifties, with tanned skin and had a strong sense that he was still active. He was the type that I don’t like.

“Based on the surveillance cameras, the other party consists of around fifteen goblins. They were moving in a coordinated manner, so I suspected that there were at least two people with [Tame] skills lurking nearby.”

“Hohohoho. Only the circus would have a dark clan that keeps monsters. But 15 goblins?”

Tomizawa said as he flapped his fan. It’s only February. (T/N: February is mid-winter in Japan and the average temperature is around 6°C (48.2°F))

“Maybe the goblins outside are just a diversion?”

“Bando’s right, the goblins are probably a diversion.”

Bando, affirmed by Gonda, nodded his head in satisfaction. It’s a good thing that his need for approval has been satisfied.

“Then what is your favorite?”

“…My favorite, hmm…”

“Hohoho. You’re unusually lispy for a boss. What’s the matter with you?”

Gonda bit his back teeth with a gulp, then opened his mouth.

“No, I’m sorry. I just have to trust you guys so let’s talk. Actually, the other day, I got a summoning orb. And it’s a very rare monster summoning orb.”

“Really, boss? That’s great!”

“Ho-ho-ho! Well, well, well.”

The tense atmosphere in the conference room suddenly rose.

“I don’t know who leaked this information, but it’s the only reason I can think of for the circus bastards to move at this time.”

“Hoho. I’m sure those circus guys will want the summoning orb even more than the other of the Dark Clan. It can be used both in front and behind the scenes.”

“So, that summoning orb is in the boss’ possession?”

“Yes, it’s safest for me to have it. I’m sure the circus guys think the same way.

“Do you think they’ll come after you, boss?”

“Yeah.”

Bando looked happy again when Gonda affirmed him. It’s too easy, isn’t it, Bando?

“Hoho. So what are you going to do now, Boss? From the hidden passage…”

Bam!

Gonda slammed his fist down on the table.

“Tomizawa! The Dark Clan is finished once they’ve been ridiculed! What do you do if you run away here?! I’ll hit you!”

“Hohoho. So that’s what it comes down to. I’ll accompany you.”

Tomizawa fanned his fan.

“I didn’t think I’d get a chance to show my strength so soon.”  Bando clenched his fists. 

Is it my turn this time?

“Since there are no other options. I’ll go with you.”

There were no reactions when I said that.

What is it? There’s something wrong with this atmosphere. Gonda’s eyes were bulging out and Tomizawa was looking at me with his mouth open. What is it? What the hell is going on? Is there something behind me?

Gonda’s tanned skin becomes even redder. Could it be that Mayuzumi’s invisibility has been lifted? If Mayuzumi, who had been rejected by the clan after trying to recruit them, showed up at this moment, he would definitely think that Mayuzumi was an assassin from the circus. Damn it! How will I get through this? What is the natural course of action for Memeno right now? It’s strange that nothing is working.

I slowly turn around.

No one’s there so I looked back at them.

The face of Gonda in front of me was no longer bright red. This is probably the advanced skill of the [Hardening] used by the Orc General, the [Vajra]. It’s an offensive and defensive skill that is extremely strong in a physical battle.

“Who are you?”

Gonda asks, steam rising from his skin.

“Where’d you hide Memeno?”

“I’m Memeno.”

Gonda stood up. “Bullshit! There’s no way that Memeno would say “I’ll go with you.” on his own. It was strange to begin with when he came within ten minutes of my call.” 

“Hohoho. That’s true. I thought it was strange that he didn’t sleep during the meeting.” Tomizawa stood up too.

“I don’t know about you, but you seem to be the enemy.” Bando finally stood up as well.

“Tch.”

Damn ittttt! What the hell is going on? That bastard Memenooo!
