Ch. 008: Epilogue

TN:A nice chapter since its only 1335 words and not 2000s smth like the previous one. A quick one heh
Oh and the author did not disappoint(?) his readers since he really did write out the beating scene… enjoy(?) I mean...editing this before posting it, you guys did ask for it...

Also, the novel site seems to censor swear words so i'm just writing them as they fit the story.


I really dislike things such as fighting.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, I wouldn’t fight, so I don't have much experience in fighting.
N-not even my own father hit me!
(TN: I’m sorry but I had to do it. Meme Ignoring the Chinese its a good meme)
This was something I could say with confidence
Even at this situation my brain is still think about these strange things…
「You little shit, you dare look down on me?」
My father’s roars brought my mind back to reality
While saying this , instead of his face being twisted with fury, it looked more like a crooked smile
「That women wouldn’t let me live a good life, so don’t even think about having a good life yourself!」
The only escape is the window
But this was the 6th floor, if I jumped I’d definitely die, definitely.
Looking at this man, he keeps giving off a feeling as if he’d been given the death sentence and was recklessly spending his last days on earth.
As if he was not scared of death itself.
「Did you cause trouble outside again?」
Ignoring formalities, I directly asked him this question.
「It’s obvious. That Inoue was too annoying, I got pissed off and so I killed him.」
Hey, is that really true.
「Originally I wanted to grab some stuff and make a run for it, but after looking at your face it reminded me of that woman. Tch! Why am I wasting words on you, when I’m in such a bad mood?」
He walked towards me step-by-step and I was forced into the corner just like that.
The phone, did the call connect? Placing all my hopes on this, I took a deep breath.
A fist came flying over faster than I could react.
Thump… A fairly strange sound clearly reverberated through the room.
「Kuh…..!」
Instantly, I felt as if all the air in my lungs had left me.
I felt as if I were suffocating while gasping for air.
「Huff…..Huff」
A warm liquid came from the depths of my throat and reached my mouth.
(Blood….I’m bleeding)
Looking at the blood dripping from my mouth onto the lime coloured tiles, dying it red, I was so scared no sound came out.
I couldn’t even think of anything to say to save myself.
If this continues, I really will die. This thought flashed across my mind.
Since I had cleaned the floor not long ago, if you ignore the obvious blood stains, it was as shiny as a clear mirror.
I saw my thin, fragile face, looking as pale as the moon outside.
My expression, reminded me of the face of that women who I looked down on before. (TN: I don’t know which women the MC had looked down before…the author never wrote it.)
Father continued his assault.
I didn’t even know how much time had passed.
Maybe it’s because of losing blood or because of the sharp pain from the beatings, I was unable to move at all.
It hurts. It hurts so much.
My chest and leg feels like something is misplaced and the pain was throbbing. The bones might have been fractured there.
「Haaa——」
I wanted to speak, but I was only able to let out a pitiful wheeze.
My consciousness was slowly slipping away.
I thought I heard someone shout from the floor below, right before I lost consciousness
(TN: wow when I saw this chapter I was like this is easy to TL who would have thought it would take me a whole day just for this “fight” scene hmmmm. I’m sorry if some elements were missed and the impact wasn't enough or something like that…I don’t even know how to write scenes like this… I mean if you guys really want to I might as well just TL another darker novel with a lot more blood and gore :3)

I opened my eyes to an unfamiliar ceiling.
I gradually regained my senses.
So painful.
But if it hurts, it means I’m alive, right?
The four walls were painted white, the air held a lingering scent of disinfectant, I should be in a hospital right now.
Beside me sat Nakamura, he was lying on the bedside, probably asleep.
Looks like the call went through.
The light outside the window was still faint, let’s wait for him to wake up.
While thinking this, I tried sitting up.
「 Ugh…」
Accidentally pressing the injury on my chest, I instinctively moaned in pain.
「Hmm….Eh? Ah! Sai you’ve finally woken up!」
Most likely woken up because of me, Nakamura was rubbing his eyes.
「You have been unconscious for two days already! You really scared me to death!」
Grasping my hand with a I.V drip still attached, he shook me with exasperation.
「Haa…」It’s a bit painful.
「Ah, sorry sorry, I got too excited」
We both fell into silence.
「It’s all my fault」
He spoke first.
「I should have noticed it the day when I came to check up on your sickness」
「Its ok, how can anyone connect the dots so easily? Ehh… wheres my father?」
「That man? He was arrested and charged with manslaughter and deliberate assault. Most likely he will be locked up for a decade or so.」(TN: More like just give him the death sentence already, he harmed the loli)
Whew. I let out a sigh of relief.
We once again fell into silence.
Mustering up some courage, I bowed my head.
「Thank you, Nakamura!」
If it weren’t for him I might have really died a second time
「Its nothing, Sai, we’re friends…..」
「No, I’m really thankful, not only this time, but also for taking care of me these past few days.」
