I Chose to Fake My Death Chapter 14

 

"Wow, this is huge..." (Hitomi)

 

I said as I looked at my ‘new home’.

 

"Here, this is your room." (Driver)

 

She said triumphantly and opened the door.

 

I walked into the warm, sunny room. It has wooden floors and the walls are covered with pink wallpaper. Although I like it a lot, I feel a bit weird. The bed, desk, chair and closet are all very ordinary. The curtains are pink and the outdoor park can be seen through the window.

 

"This room is beautiful, but with where this house is located, it had to be expensive!" (Hitomi)

 

I scratch my head to try hiding my embarrassment.

 

After all, I’m just a naïve kid that was always hiding in my own world. How could I understand this kind of thing?

 

"It's a little expensive, but is it okay? At that time I bought this house, I borrowed the money. My family didn’t lend me any money, saying I should do it on my own. But it will be okay if I work hard.” (Driver)

 

"It's not a matter of effort. Hey, what the hell does your family do?” (Hitomi)

 

I can't understand her reply. I rubbed my head crazily, but I was pulled from behind into her arms and she’s playing with my hair?

 

"In my generation, all people are important, but I am an unsuccessful police officer. This is probably the reason why they pushed me away." (Driver)

 

"Why?" (Hitomi)

 

I push her hand away, pull back my long hair and jump off her leg.

 

"90% of people just look at talent, but it’s not something that can be done just with talent alone. No, don't look at me like that. I know what you want to ask, but before that, I want to ask you a question. Do you believe in superpowers?” (Driver)

 

I almost couldn’t look at her at that moment.

 

"Believe it? Yes, I do, but you certainly couldn’t have superpowers. Otherwise, why would you be excluded?" (Hitomi)

 

I teasingly say to her while holding her little finger.

 

"How is it possible? Older sister, I am a genius!"  (Hitomi)

 

While talking, I was looking at her bulging breasts.

 

"Do you think if you speak with confidence I will believe you?" (Driver)

 

Then she contemptuously held a little black fireball for me to see. ‘Oh my God! System, quick, scan her!’

 

System… The danger level is zero.

 

‘System, I wanted you to give me detailed data, stupid! Do you think I’m afraid of that?!!’

 

System… Acknowledged

 

　　Name: Hua Yi

 

　　Sex: Female

 

　　State: Joyful

 

　　Strength: 7

 

　　Intelligence: 9

 

　　Agility: 9

 

　　Constitution: 8

 

Ability: Black Flame

 

Comprehensive Evaluation: Talent

(TN: 人才 means ‘Talent’ and is also used in memes in China sarcastically. 人中蠢才 is a meme meaning ‘stupid person or idiot’. So it’s kind of a sarcastic play on words. Sorry, it just doesn’t TL properly.)

 

Talent?!?! You intellectual, up yours! You’re looking for a fight, right? You must be picking on me, right? I know you did it on purpose, don't make me find an excuse to fight you!

System…Ummm

 

Why do I suddenly feel like I’m losing character?

 

"My Black Flame can burn everything, including space. This is an S-class ability.” (Hua Yi)

 

"S-Class? It sounds really powerful! Would you tell me who defined the level? Is there a special test to find out? You have superpowers??!" (Hitomi)

 

Honestly, I had thought that only Gods have special abilities like me. This kind of thing was in the world and I didn’t know?!

 

Magic and Miracles do exist.

 

"I would have been a powerful and high-ranking person in the organization, but for my own reasons, I'm working here." (Hua Yi)  

 

"The Miracles Bureau? That sounds great! But why don't you go! It’s a good chance to pretend to be B!" (Hitomi) 

(TN: Yes, author wrote ‘B’)

 

"The Miracles Bureau? That's about the same. The main reason I don’t go is because I’m afraid of death! My black flame is strong, burns slowly and hard to extinguish. Do you know how dangerous it is? How beautiful it is?!" (Hua Yi)

 

Saying that, I spread out my hands in front of me. Honestly, she looked like a rascal.

 

"Why did you tell me such a thing? I'm just a citizen. Shouldn't this be a secret to civilians? So why did you tell me?" (Hitomi)

 

"Because you are different in my eyes..." (Hua Yi)

 

She flicked my forehead and pulled me into her arms again.

 

"Although, I had some regrets about quitting before, I now feel like I’m making a lot of money. If I hadn't quit at that time, I wouldn't have the chance to meet such a cute, sweet girl like you. So I have the ability to protect you. I'll spend a lifetime with you." (Hua Yi)

 

Oh My God! Is she Insane??!

 

While struggling, I found I was restrained. Thinking of my 1 point strength, a hand had reached under my clothes and stroked my stomach.

 

"Tell me, what is your name?" (Hua Yi)

 

The feeling of her touching me was comforting and shameful at the same time. Although, it’s not so much about me being hugged and touched, it’s also a beautiful woman that is giving instead of taking. I don't like it at all.

 

On my skin, the feeling came again.

 

It's the feeling of being hit by a car.

 

I can hold it. I can control it.

 

"You idiot, eat a shoulder fall!!" (Hitomi)

 

Well, actually, it's a little different from the shoulder fall.

 

The crazy girl hit the ceiling and then fell to the floor hard.

 

"Hey, it’s lucky I ran fast or I would have been hit. Hey, pervert, are you still alive?” (Hitomi)

 

"Ouch... Just barely." (Hua Yi)

 

"This is now my room! Don’t come in without permission!” (Hitomi)

 

She didn't respond, so I closed the door and locked it. Hua Yi was left in the hallway.

 

 

She was sitting on the floor rubbing her head in the hallway and talking to herself.

 

"My judgment was correct. She's an alien too. Now I can protect her. I'm not going to let those guys take her away." (Hua Yi)
