Mushoku no Eiyuu ~Betsu ni Skill Nanka Iranakattan daga~

177-Episode 2 I'Ll Cry If I'M Not

A lot of people lived in the house where I was born.

A stern-looking uncle, a petite, baby-faced uncle, and an older sister in her mid-30s.

An older sister in her mid-thirties, an older sister about twenty years old, a girl about ten years old, and someone who looked like my mother.

........I have no idea what the relationship is.

At first I thought the small man was my father, but apparently not.

''Uh-oh?''

It's Jeezy.

From the way he asserts himself, he looks like my grandfather.

Ayu?

Yeah, I'm an old woman.

The person I thought was my sister, about mid-thirty, was my grandmother.

Not young??They are usually old enough to be mothers.

Incidentally, they seem to be my paternal grandparents.

The red-haired man who sometimes comes to the house is my mother's father.

And my father is not home at the moment.

Is he away on his own or something??I don't know the circumstances, but it seems to happen all the time.

So who the hell are the other three?

They're completely at home, but all three of them look disparate and don't feel like they're related to each other at all.

Is one of them a human being in the first place??And he's so tall that you'd think he'd be taller.

Well, I'll find out sooner or later.

By the way, neither I nor my twin sister have a name yet.

I think they are going to give it to me after their father comes home.

I want you to use a normal name this time.

When I woke up in the morning one day, I found myself being held by an unknown girl.

"Aue?

He really is your brother.

What is your age, middle school?

She is a very beautiful girl, and I'm sure she would be very popular at school.

She looks down at me and smiles kindly at me.

But who is she talking about, brother?

What... what are you doing?

The mother seemed to have woken up and shouted at the girl.

'I'm holding her in my arms. It's your brother's child, isn't it?

If "brother" comes from a blood relationship, then this girl, my father's sister, is she my father's sister?

Come to think of it, she looks a lot like my grandmother.

When the hell did you come back??What's wrong with Arrell!

Your mother chokes out in a strong tone.

Maybe they don't get along very well.

''Uhhhhhh!''

Mom's voice was so loud that her twin sister started to cry.

'Wow, I'm sorry for being so loud!?Alright, alright, alright!

'It's going to be hard to take care of both of you at the same time. I'll leave this one to Mira.

Oh, hey...

A girl, apparently named Mira, leaves the room with me in her arms.

''Uh-uh.''

Hmmm ... she's a very pretty girl.

Wow?

Aunt Mila was lovingly stroking my head.

My dad came back.

I thought he would be small like his grandfather, but he's normally tall.

My mom is also tall, and apparently I'm going to be big.

'Um ... where are you from?'

Your kids, of course!

What?

They didn't even know we were born, and they are surprised.

'I guess there's no way to communicate long distance in this world.

'Utterly unfit to be a father, to not even be present at the birth. This is your father!

My mom tries to give me away.

"Can I hold her?

'You're a father, of course it's good. But you must be nice to him.

Oh, yeah.

Dad took me in.

It stinks!

This guy smells so bad that his nose is almost bent!

Uh-oh.

You stink. You should've given her a bath before you let me hold her.

I turned back to my mom.

Oh, it smelled....

The smell is horrible. I'd be crying if it weren't for me.

Afterwards, my sister and I were given names.

Please.

Please, please use normal names.

"What about Kiki and Lara?

'I don't know why, but I have a feeling that's an absolute no-no...'

My mom was right.

I screamed.

"Nuh-uh-uh.

You see, she doesn't like it either.

It's true.

Apparently, he got my message.

How about Mario and Peaches then?

Nuh-uh-uh.

He didn't want that either.

Well then how about Osugi and Pico?

Nuh-uh-uh.

She hates it more.

He's not doing this on purpose, is he!

Then it went through several terrible subversions.

Eventually Dad said as he twisted it out.

'Hmmm ... how about Ark and Layla or something?'

It's good for you, isn't it??See, she's nodding her head.

I shook my head as hard as I could at the not-so-bad name that finally came out.

'Alright then, from today you're Ark.

"Mutual.

And you're Layla.

Woo?

This is how I ended up living my new life under the name Ark.

''Fufu........Ark is really cute, isn't he?

Lately I've been walking around outside my house a lot, with my Aunt Mila in my arms.

It's a small town in the countryside where there's nothing to see, but it's refreshing for me, as I wasn't able to go out much in my previous life.

By the way, Aunt Mila has been taking care of me at all hours of the day and night.

She's always by my side when I go to bed, take a bath, or eat.

Isn't it a bit strange, don't you think?

Moreover, I'm the only one who takes care of him, and he doesn't even look at Leila.

''Mila's grown up, taking the initiative to take care of my nephew.

Right, Grandpa?

Of course.

Grandma and Grandpa are mildly amused, but Mom is looking at Aunt Mira with a scowl.

'Can I have Leila look at you once in a while?

'The boy is shy. So I think it's better for his mother.

Well, okay.

I decided not to worry too much about it.
