“Three more days …”

I think about the Temptation of the Evil God while cleaning the hallway of the multi-storey building.

Taking the last time into consideration, the waves start at noon and stop in the evening.

Either way I know when they will start appearing and when the will stop so its easier this time.

In terms of strength, now we have Murus. Kan, Ran including the Gams from before. According to calculations, the numbers have multiplied by four. We should be able to survive even if the difficulty level increases.

“Hey, do your work properly!”

I hear the Presidents angry voice from behind.

Did I neglected something while thinking about these things?

“I’m sorry.”

Mr Yamamoto bows down ahead of me and apologizes.

So it wasn’t directed at me?

There was a lot of soil near the foot of Mr. Yamamoto even though this is a multistory building. He is being scolded by the president

A plant pot was lying nearby. It probably fell during the cleaning job.

“Yama, what happened? Recently, you are always feeling sleep. If you are sice then you can take rest?”

“Well, it’s okay. I’m just a little sleepy. And I needed money …”

There was no strength in his reply to the President.

The President is correct. He is always anxious. He never takes nap during the break or when we are traveling. He is always playing game on his smart phone with an immersed expression.

He used to talk to me during the breaks but now is always immersed in the game.

On my way home, I bought drinks at the usual convenience store. I coudnt help but think about Mr. Yamamoto.

This didnt happen only today but since past few days.

Its the same for me. I am also addicted to the game but not as much as him. I am seen him operating his smart phone desperately many times.

I was told about the reason for the addiction few days ago.

“Its absolutely secret.”

I was honestly surprised of the content which he told me.

“I get reward for the game which I’m playing. You get points when you defeat a base and eventually you can convert the points into cash.”

“Oh, thats a joke. I’ve never heard of such a game.”

While talking about the game during the break, Mr Yamamoto told me something weird. A system for player to make money in a game.

“I know thats unbelievable.”

Really? It is a ridiculous system.

I would like to say that there is no such game but Village of Fate is also quite different to a common game. Comparatively, the game which Mr.Yamamoto is playing makes more sense.

“That’s not a small game. Its an online game so there are other player. One I dropped by a big village and other players attacked me. I was lucky that they easily got exhausted. I lost a lot.”

There was siege battle system in one of the games which I have played but it was almost impossible for the weak guilds to cooperate and attack the castles of strong guilds.

“Well, only small amount of cash has been involved then I wouldn’t be so enthusiastic …”

He talked so far and then suddenly became afraid. He shut his mouth and surveyed the area.

Well, what’s next? You shouldn’t stop at that.

“How much money did you make?”

“I haven’t really told this to anyone. If I redeem it, it will be five million.”

“Five…..”

I almost cried out aloud. I closed my mouth with my hands.

“It’s a lot of money! My family is so poor. I had to drop out of high school and work because my father died with a lot of family debt. When I was about to pay off the debt, my mother took another debt and escaped with a man.”

The story he told me so far was really heavy.

Yamamoto-san has struggled hard, beyond my imagination. I have no right to say anything since I am from a wealthy family and I have started doing job recently.

I thought it would be rude to both of us so I can only listen.

“Sometimes people say irresponsible things like that the child isn’t obliged to pay the parents debt. Whether they are scum or not, my parents are my parents. The debt has risen so much. It would be cowardly not to pay it. I have sacrificed all my teenage and youth. I have been playing the debt till last year.”

There must be a legal way for the children to not pay the debt.

It might sound bad but personally I dont think there is a reason for the child to pay the debt borrowed by the parent without his permission.

Still, I dont necessarily hate the idea. I think this is also a clumsy way of life but I think its fine.

“That’s why I was really happy with this extraordinary income. I can now almost pay the debt. This game is the only chance I have to reverse my life…”

Hearing the strong willed Mr.Yamamoto, I felt a little scared.

“I’m worried……”

I dont know about the details of the game but since its about making money then its just another job.

You might be able to make more money by concentrating on the game, but I am afraid to bet all my eggs on a virtual basket.

The cleaning work will be over tomorrow. The work will restart from January 5th so I hope Mr.Yamamoto will return back to normal during this time.

I don’t usually worry about people but its natural for me to be concerned about a close colleague.

I saw the lights of my home while walking back, thinking about Mr. Yamamoto.

I was walking rather slowly, and it seems the chill have seeped to my core.

I jumped into the house to look for a place to warm up. I took of my shoes and went to the living room where my family was waiting for me.

They were about to finish their dinner. Was I just a bit late?

“Oh, Welcome back. Do you want dinner?”

“Yes. I haven’t eaten anything.”

“I’ll warm it up right away.”

While my mother was preparing the dish, I bent down in front of the electric heater to warm up.

“Hey, don’t occupy the heater.”

My chilly sister sat next to me and started pushing me.

I had no intention to give up my place so I defended the position. We started pushing each other.

“Wow, I can’t win with my strength. Ah, hey, what are you going to do during the New Year’s holiday?”

My sister asked me. I was surprised.

Yes, everyone visits my grandfather during the new year holidays. That said I haven’t seen his face since ten years.

At the end of the year, everyone except me visits them and return back after four days so it was some precious days for me during my Neet time.

“Is it okay for you to go this year?”

My father sat on the sofa and asked while facing his back to me.

I understood the meaning of his words. Till now, I coudnt go as I was a NEET but now I am working. I want to tell them.

I love my grandfather and grandmother. I want to see them after this long time. However, there will be Temptation of the Evil God on the New Year and there might be some temporary cleaning jobs.

And since Yamamoto is in such a condition, there is a possibility that more work will pop up

“I want to go but I might have some sudden work. Tell the grandparents that I’ll go see them later on.”

“I see … its can’t be helped then..”

“You better visit them after the New Year. You still have to visit them on a New Year. Please free up some time.”

My parents seemed to be OK but my sister was staring at me with eyes full of grudges.

Is it troublesome to visit my grandparents without me?

“I’m going to spend some time at home this year.”

“Weren’t you looking forward to the New Year’s visit? Didn’t you say that you wanted to meet your grandfather and grandmother?”

“Um, that’s right …”

“Then, let’s go. They must be expecting some souvenirs.”

I have no idea what souvenirs they are talking about but if I care about her then I should convince her to go.

“Huh, then go …”

Why did you sigh? My sisters thinking is uncomprehending to me.

I went to the second floor after the meal. I saw that the villagers are sleeping so I decided to think about tomorrow.

My family will leave at noon. The last cleaning job is also tomorrow.

I will be a little lonely after I am done with work.

Some food has been prepared for the New Year. My mother cooks the food every year. She takes a portion of it with her and keeps the rest for me.

There is also the food from the Village of Fate and since I haven’t used my money on the game recently, I have plenty of money. There isn’t any financial concern.

I can cook some simple dishes on my own as well…..

Well, is there a New Year’s event in the game?

If it is a online game then there must be something like a New Year’s campaign or something similar.

I looked through the options and the past log but it seems there isn’t any promotion.

“Isn’t it possible to do the egg gacha since its been a month since last time?”

In the description, it was mentioned then it can be done once a month only.

I don’t expect much this time as I hit the jackpot before. Also I need to inform Carol via the oracle that she doesn’t need to send more stuff to me .

“Do the work tomorrow without thinking about these extra things … overcoming the Temptation of Evil Gods tomorrow …. huh, oh well, good night, everyone.”

I am not sleepy but I must sleep for the sake of villagers.

The moment I tried entering the futon, my eyes met Destiny’s over the glass case.

Those eyes are …

“That, what, Ah…….” [1]

Destiny shook his head happily.
