Mob MC 58.1

Test

Chapter 58.1. The Strong One's Appearance Event!


The place is quiet and still. A short distance away, people are partying like usual, unaware of the commotion, and we can hear in stark contrast. It was only a few minutes in time. It was a short time, so from a distance, they probably didn't notice what we were doing.

But the people around Miu are watching this exchange, and don't even have to say a word; they're in disbelief.

I know, right? I understand. I don't get it either. I need a konjac or something that can translate to speak with this alien.

And yet, this alien seems to think he's developing a perfect theory, and he's so confident in his chest. Well, there was a stupid villain like this in the original novel. Well, in the world of this novel, some small villains are stupid through and through.

I look at the alien with more pity than anger.

"Got it? If you get it, give that girl to me. I'll adopt you later."

"You think I'm going to agree?"

My dad's puzzled by the alien's unexpected line. He must have realized that Arashi was an alien who couldn't communicate with my dad.

Let's trace his thoughts, just in case. I don't like it.

Probably, since childhood, he abused his younger brother, Miu's dad, to show his superiority. He despised his brother for not awakening his mana, and then the lovely Miu was born. She's born with the power of being a recovery magician.

It's cheeky for my dad to have a daughter who is a recovery magician and an honest, beautiful girl. Yes, let's take it away.

So frustrated, Arashi tried to take it away from his brother by beating him to a pulp. Perhaps as a child, my brother could only answer yes. So he thought if he showed a little strength. My dad would give me away.

That's a messy plan. It's worse than a screenwriter who only writes a synopsis. Even his plan is too crude. I know he's an alien. I'll call the man in black and have him take me in.

No, I get it. I get it now. This is the way novels are supposed to unfold. It's the event of the idiot villain and the exiled hero.

The protagonist tells the stupid villain it's too late, with a mixture of vengeance and superiority. That's the kind of event, I suppose.

But the novel's development doesn't apply to the mob's father, who reacts with common sense. In other words, it is a development that's so stupid that it's appalling.

This is the same development that happened several times in the original novel. Each time, the protagonist would refuse with a smug look while lecturing the other party, but from the point of view of others, it was a wow-worthy development.

I see. The protagonist who says it's too late also needs to be able to ignore the gaze of others and have the strength of mind to preach. The mob can't do that. It's embarrassing to have a conversation, like this.

"Aaan? What the hell are you talking about? I have money, power, and also magic. My son's a magician too. I won't give you a hard time, am I?"

"Uh-huh, I'm a magician! I have nothing but a glorious future!"

The son, who stood up holding his nose, also raised his voice along with the alien.

In all likelihood, these are the words of aliens who can only lead an unhappy life with no future. Is that it, or does it mean we can live a happy life if we live on Mars instead o Earth?

"I won't just give it to Arashi-san. Or rather, Miu's not going to give it to anyone."

Tiredly, my dad replies. I know he'd like to answer neatly, but it's true, it's hard to deal with these aliens.

Only the two aliens are ranting and raving, and they turn the air into an uncomfortable atmosphere. What are you going to do about this air? These kids are at a once-in-a-lifetime party for 10 years old. It's pitiful.

It can't be helped. I clenched my fists, thinking if I hit them as hard as I could. They would pass out.

"Pwahahaha! That's an interesting event."

Before I knew it, a caracara and a funny sound of laughter echoed from next to me, blowing the hard air away. I saw an old woman standing there, clapping her hands and laughing with a funny look.

She's an old woman standing tall and beautiful. She was so dignified that I hesitated to call her an old woman. She was about 170 centimeters tall. She must have been beautiful in the past, and even though she was covered with wrinkles, I could recognize her face. The air she wears is like that of a king, and even I, an insensitive person, can sense her intimidating and awesome presence.

Her hair is pure white and grows down to her waist. She was an energetic old lady who didn't seem to age.

"Well, that's the end of the play by the most rad of the radiant actors. Enjoy yourselves, everyone.

"Who are you?"

[Dragon Pressure]

Grandma's eyes glinted. Her pupils get split vertically, and they are not human eyes. They are the eyes of a reptile.

"Nah, gugguhgh."

"Abba."

Arashi falls to his knees, and the alien's face contorts painfully. His son blows bubbles and collapses. He's fainted.

Sniffling, Grandma turns to a soft smile and looks around.

"Come on. You've got to enjoy it. See, there's still plenty of food for the kids, too."

At her pleasant words, everyone's faces lost their venom, and they resumed their former air, eating the food and chatting, to enjoy the party once again.

It was a relief to know that we were the cause of all this. Now, I guess I'll resume conquering all kinds of food, too.

"Wait. Not you. Why are you acting as if nothing happened?"

The old lady stops me by grabbing me by the neck with a hijinks, but that's that, and this is that, right?

"I want to enjoy it too. There are so many dishes I haven't tried yet! And my friends are waiting for me!"

"You're a bold child. Aren't you the center of the dispute?"

But my new friends anxiously waited for me to conquer all the dishes as soon as possible. I think it's time to test Captain Miu's leadership skills.

"Let's wait for a little, Miu-chan. More importantly, are you hurt?"

"Yeah, I'm not hurt."

When I gave my thumbs up, my mom came to me and touched my body, and my mom felt relieved. I'm sorry I made you worry.

"But you did well. Nice, Mii-chan."

She says in a whisper, and I smile back at her mmmm. Instead of getting angry, she compliments me.

"You guys seem to have more backbone than I thought."

Grandma, watching our exchange, laughs with hahahan. She's as intimidating as a dragon.

No, she is indeed a dragon.
