I, who advocate giving up, feel like a disqualified person

So, after seeing off the schoolmate named Jiumuting, I sat down on the chair with a serious expression, staring at Tongyou.

"...Um...So what? What do you think we should do about this?"

As usual, as soon as I'm alone, this guy will put away his overly lively attitude and turn to me for help.

"I think we should refuse."

I responded in a very unpleasant tone.

"Ah... why do you want to refuse? Is this difficult for you?" She asked, tilting her head slightly.

"Of course! Expecting to find the owner with just an umbrella? Have you read too many mystery novels? This kind of thing is as difficult as going from bronze to diamond in a month!"

"I don't understand what you're saying, sorry."

"Don't make me misunderstand!" I said, banging my head against the table. "It's always like this. You just take on things without even considering whether you can do it. You only care about your own momentary pleasure and never consider me. I work so hard to make plans for things like this!"

"Oh, sorry, sorry... I've been working hard on you all this time."

"I don't need this kind of apology that's not sincere at all! Anyway, you're doing this just to get me to help you solve the problem, right? I've already said that I can't do this, so..." I stood up, ignoring her expression at the moment, "Take on the problem and solve it yourself."

After saying that, I walked straight towards the door.

"...where you go?"

Completely different from usual, there was a melancholy tone mixed in this question.

Was what I said just now a bit too much... No, she is the one who is the most excessive. Let her solve it herself.

"go home."

After I said this coldly, I opened the door and walked out.

. . . . . . . . . . . . .

Really... that's so stupid. Wanting to find the person involved because of a completely ordinary encounter... Do you think this is some kind of shojo manga? Besides, plots like this are no longer popular in this era.

Anyway, it's so troublesome... Why would I join a club run by people like that...

Thinking of this, I suddenly realized that I was on the playground during the evening.

"Yes..."

I looked at the sky which was dyed orange by the setting sun.

That day, it was also at this time.

"Hey, little brother over there, come and help me, please?"

At that time, she came to me for help while holding several boxes that looked very heavy.

"I'm already in the second grade, and you're also in the second grade, so we should be peers, right?"

Even though he was complaining about meaningless things, he still helped her move the boxes.

"By the way, do you join any clubs?" She suddenly asked this out of the blue.

"How could I possibly participate in something so troublesome..."

"Oh~ I understand..." As if with some profound meaning, she gave me her only sincere smile.

Later... after helping move my stuff to the office, she directly asked the teacher who was still there to let me join the club. No matter how much I tried to refuse, it was unacceptable... and the teacher agreed so easily, simply saying, "It's not possible to have only one person in that club, and you don't have anything else to do, do you?" I almost suspected they were in collusion...

However, if you say I hate it, I don’t really hate it.

Being able to help others is really a good thing, although sometimes I do wrong things...most of the time it's because of the club leader named Tongyou.

"........."

She...can handle that, right?

It's impossible no matter how I think about it... That guy is no exaggeration to say he is an idiot... Really, if there is no other way, why does he have to act so stubbornly? Why not just respect me a little?

“…so annoying.”

I scratched my hair randomly, turned around and walked towards the club.

...............

After opening the door, I found that Tongyou was sitting in his seat with a dazed look in his eyes, and I didn't know what he was thinking. It was not until he noticed that I came back that his eyes suddenly became lively again.

"Oh, didn't you say you were going home?"

"...Because I'm worried you can't solve it. After all, you're a fool."

"Ah, that's too much."

What? Isn't this also possible to talk properly?

"Anyway, this matter...I'd better let me handle it." I scratched my hair and sat down helplessly on the chair that belonged to me.

"Um...thank you..."

"Ah?" I seemed to hear what she said.

"No, it's nothing... Anyway, do your best and don't bring shame to our club."

It looks like she's back to normal, which is fine.

"I'll do my best..."

"Don't answer in that tone!"

.................

Maybe that's how it is. Everyone probably has someone in their heart that can't be easily let go.

But, when will this troublesome club leader who keeps causing me so much worry be able to give me some peace of mind?

Chapter 7 Closing Remarks and Other Things

After many things happened

Hello everyone, I am a person who has recently started to find it easy to use some plots instead of postscripts, so I accidentally do this often.

Actually, if you think about it carefully, it doesn’t seem easy either, because you also have to consider the plot and so on... Anyway, this postscript will return to the previous way.

This chapter tells the story from someone else's perspective, which surprisingly appealed to the readers... Originally, I only wanted to write one chapter... Chapter 0. However, I've already written ten chapters, so that's enough. While there are still many characters worth mentioning, I think it's best to move on to the next chapter as soon as possible.

Come to think of it, I've been dormant for a long time now... Well, the main reason is probably a lack of inspiration and the huge changes to Hearthstone, so I've been busy researching new decks. It's not that I'm addicted to the game.

Well, I'm also planning to write novels or draw comics as a career, and I don't really want to go to university... Although my grades are acceptable, for some reason, I always feel that things won't go so smoothly.

Since I'm not sure about choosing a university, and I'm a bit more confident about writing novels and drawing comics, why would I choose something so uncertain? ...Maybe it's a bit willful, but I always feel that if I had enough time, I could really create something great based on my own strength.

Life is a gamble.

The two protagonists in "Dream Eaters" chose comics for their dreams and gambled everything they had.

In fact, we are all gamblers, but some are timid and choose projects with low risks, while others go all out.

Compared to going to college, I've always felt that writing novels and comics would be more profitable... However, many people are skeptical: Can I succeed? Can I really draw great comics without a formal education?

...I don't know. It's just like when you study in school. There are people teaching you, but the results are different.

I've never been a chosen one, nor a genius, but just an ordinary person. When I went abroad to study art, I realized that I was very ordinary in sketching and coloring, and I could even say that I was the worst in the class.

Before I went out to study, my art grades were among the best in the class. The reason for this was that the guys around me were not strong enough.

To be honest, I feel a little uneasy when facing those who are better than me, and I feel a little frustrated when my grades often don’t improve... But I am mostly excited.

Oh, there are still many powerful people in this world, right? In that case, don't I have to become stronger?

However, becoming stronger does not simply mean surpassing others in areas where you are weaker than yourself, but making yourself so strong that others cannot surpass you.

After weighing my situation, I decided that giving up college might be a better option.

I want to become stronger, but not the kind of strong that is needed to cope with exams, but the kind of strong that is needed to survive.

I want to write more popular novels and draw comics that are liked by many people. I know I am still a long way from achieving my goals, so I feel a little uneasy, but more of it is the excitement of facing the challenge and... the first time I have my own choice.

Maybe I will fail, but I haven't tried yet...how can I know.

Anyway, I decided to keep working on it.

Give up some things and move towards the direction of not giving up...bless me.

I won’t stop updating from today onwards, because it looks like it will be recommended on the cover.

Is this good news?

Things I want to forget and things I can't forget

Forgetting is the best choice

Humans are always forgetful.

It is no exaggeration to say that he is good at forgetting.

Whether it is an unfortunate past or an experience that is difficult to talk about, as long as you want to forget it, you will eventually forget it, and it will become difficult to recall it as time goes by.

The unacceptable separation, or the embarrassment of being rejected when confessing your love for the first time, these insignificant things that may even hurt your heart should all be forgotten.

There are also the irrelevant topics that others talk about, the endless nagging of teachers, and the nagging of parents... Just forget about the things that cause trouble in your mind.

In this way, we choose to forget those things that we think are unimportant, and gradually form the habit of forgetting.

Is this a good habit or a bad one?

I had long forgotten this troublesome problem.

Chapter 0: Forgetting is the best choice

The weather was originally cool, but I can't remember when it started to become increasingly severe.

The scorching sun bakes the earth, as if telling everyone: Summer has arrived! Pretty ladies, quickly put on short skirts and stockings and go shopping, otakus, stay in your rooms and don't come out, while those popular people will be reduced to ashes in the flames!

Has the sun at this moment truly inherited the will of the Fire Demon King? I'm a little moved...

【Have a safe journey, Big Screw.】

And the reason why I can feel the will of the sun now is because... I am in this sunlight, although not voluntarily.

As for the reason...it's because I'm waiting for someone.

At the station near the shopping street, I was waiting for the guys who asked me to come over, looking a little lonely. However, when I arrived at the agreed time, I received a message saying, "We have a few things to buy, so please wait for us at the station."

In that case, why do you insist that I arrive on time?

I was full of complaints and sat down on the bench where I was waiting...even though I was very hot in the sun.

“So slow… Really slow…”

After a while I kept muttering similar things.

Beads of sweat kept pouring out of my forehead and back, and my patience seemed to be disappearing along with these beads of sweat.

"Damn it! Never mind..."

I just dropped my luggage and walked towards a nearby ice cream shop.

It's okay for girls to take a long time shopping, but why was Liu Yan so slow to arrive? Did he faint from the sun? Or did he never plan to come in the first place? Damn it! No matter how you look at it, this whole wait wasn't worth it. I should have ignored the "come late at your own risk" warning.

................

"Welcome." The waiter said this to me as a matter of routine.

"Ah..." I looked around the store... No wonder there were almost no people in the station, it turns out they all came here.

Well, although I already know that the hot summer is the accomplice of cold drink shops in cheating people out of money, this is the situation, and being cheated is inevitable... Either be baked to death or pay the price financially, of course I would choose to die... choose to pay the price.

Because there were already a lot of people in the store, I felt a little uneasy staying here, so I just took it away.

"see you next time."
