You're the Only One I'll Never Forgive!

===============================

Come to the bench in XX park today around 7pm.

===============================

I haven’t heard from Sato in some time.

We were in the same guild and in the same class, so we exchanged contact information.

I’m not sure how many times I’ve thought about deleting it, but even if I did, he can still contact me.

===============================

Not going to happen.

===============================

I refuse.

It’s not going to be good for me.

===============================

I don’t mind, but you’ll regret it.

===============================

(What the hell?)

Still, I felt a strange stirring in that sentence and decided to head over.

I’ll probably be fine now.

It’s a good opportunity, if he does something to me today I’ll punch Sato.

With this determination, Kenya decided to follow the message.

Why didn’t I notice it at that time?

Why didn’t I realize the true nature of the uneasiness at that time?

…

“Hello~ Nana-chan!”

Sato approaches Nana with a tentative smile.

It’s after school now, time to leave school.

“Who are you?”

Nana doesn’t realize the malice directed at her when she is suddenly spoken to.

She just looked like a cute, unknowing girl, a senior at the same high school who approached her with a smile on her face.

Actually, they had met at the barbeque, but she didn’t notice it because of his smile, which made it hard to believe it was the same person.

Even if he wasn’t smiling, she didn’t notice it because she only saw him for a second.

(Okay, you haven’t heard from that guy about me.)

Kenya never told Nana why he quit the guild or that he was being bullied by Sato.

Who would like to tell her painful and embarrassing memories to his sister?

Kenya kept her in the dark, which is why Nana doesn’t know this person.

And Sato knew that he must have.

“Look, I’m an adventurer!　I’m working with your brother!”

He flashed his silver adventurer tag to prove his identity.

“Ah!　Oh, I see!　So you know my brother!”

“Yeah, yeah, yeah!　So, hey, there’s something I need your help with, Nana-chan!　I wanted to surprise Kenya-kun with a surprise!”

Sato lies without a care in the world.

The surprise is true, however.

It’s just not a pleasant surprise.

“What?　A surprise!　My brother will be so happy!　I’ll cooperate!”

That pure girl is easily fooled and jumps for joy with an innocent smile.

Pure, beautiful Nana is easily swallowed up by malice and tricked into a false smile cloaked in wickedness.

And after a while, she is taken to a park at night.

There is no one there and no sign of people.

“What are you going to do here?　Surprise them suddenly and give them a present?”

Nana giggles.

I wonder what my brother will look like, will he be happy?

“Yes – it would be nice to surprise him, really.”

Sato and some of his cronies surround Nana.

“Hey, what is it?　What’s wrong?”

“Huhihi!　Huhihi!　Hyahahaha!”　

Sato suddenly burst into laughter.

Then he suddenly hugs Nana, and applies something to her from behind.

“If the brother is incompetent, then his sister must be stupid.”

*Bzzz*

“?!”

(Oh!　That was awesome. She’s going to pass out for real!)

Sato pressed a stun gun against Nana.

He stunned Nana.

Her clothes were ripped off and she was made to look as if she had been raped.

She was left alone and the scene was photographed.

“Sato-san!　I can’t stand it!　It hurts!”

“Don’t do anything that could get you traced. The fun is just beginning.”

(She’s going to start begging me to hold her, hee hee hee.)

Sato and the others left the place, leaving a 10,000 yen bill and a note typed on the PC they had prepared.

After a while, Nana woke up.

She looked at herself and understood her situation.

I was attacked….

Nana had no way of knowing that, though she had not been attacked by anyone.

Nana could not move at all.

I was not sure if I had been attacked or not.

I thought I was suddenly knocked out, but my clothes were torn and there was this note and a 10,000 yen bill on the floor.

“I’m so sorry, Nana. That 10,000 yen was for Papa-katsu.”

Nana, who had never even had a boyfriend, thought she had been attacked by men she had never met before.

She was scared and trembling.

She was so scared that she was shaking.

So?　Why?

I spent a lot of time immobilized on the spot.

Nana could only hug her trembling body.

I’m so sorry…….

“Nana?”

“Big brother?”

Kenya Mitsurugi appeared in front of Nana.

He looked at Nana in her other clothes.

“Nana!”

Kenya puts his jacket on Nana and runs to her side.

Nana notices her brother and tries hard to smile.

Nana was trying her best not to let him know what had happened.

Because if she told the truth now, her brother would surely go towards those guys.

Unmute

And he would get punched and kicked and hurt.

That’s why I had to lie.

I must not hurt my brother.

With this thought, I desperately pushed down my feelings and tried to smile.

“Here, here, don’t worry!　Here, here’s the money!　I’m sorry, I did something like that.　I did something like that. It was so intense!”

Nana lies desperately, trying not to seem unnatural in this situation.

“Here, this is 10,000 yen!　Let’s go to yakiniku with Misuzu and the three of us today!　I haven’t had yakiniku in a while!”

I smile desperately and tell a lame lie.

“Ho, ho!　Oh, that?　Sorry, there’s a little debris in my eyes…”

With trembling hands, she looks at the 10,000 yen bill!　and holds it out in front of Kenya.

Still unable to hide them, tears stream down his face.

Despite her feelings, her heart had reached its limit.

She desperately tries with the excuse of the trash in her eyes, but she can’t stop the tears from overflowing.

“Oh, that?　I can’t get it off – I wonder why, ha ha ha. Hey, hey, wait a minute…hey…hey …… ugh.”

Kenya hugs Nana without saying a word, his sobbing sister.

The sister who still tries desperately to mend herself.

Kenya knew, he knew, who this was.

There was no way this could be a coincidence, the reason Sato had called me here was to show me this.

I wrap shivering Nana in my jacket and hold her silently.

Cold, light, and trembling, I gently hold this precious thing in my arms so that it does not break, and we head home.

With Kenya’s status, nothing is too much trouble.

He continues to gently say to her, “It’s okay, it’s okay.

“Okaeri…ri?　What’s wrong?”

When I return to our house, Misuzu is waiting for me in my room.

“Misuzu, take care of Nana.”

“Uh-huh!　Where’s Kenya-senpai?”

“I have something to do, something I have to do.”

Kenya then hugs Nana tightly.

“I’ll go finish everything, just wait a little bit.”

“No, no!　I’m good!　I’ll be fine.”

“Don’t worry, you’re strong, you’ll be fine.”

Nana nodded as she looked into his eyes, which held a gentle smile, a firm confidence, and a burning anger.

I believed my brother, who had always been my hero.

She nodded and looked over at Kenya.

Then Kenya went outside.

Kenya took a deep breath to calm his trembling body.

Fresh air filled his body.

His clearer thoughts made him understand the situation more vividly.

(Hey, what did Nana do?)

I can still understand if I am the one who was expelled for incompetence.

I still don’t agree with it, but I can still understand it.

But my sister had nothing to do with it.

Did they go after Nana?　To piss me off?

I take a deep breath, but my body immediately begins to shake.

Blood oozes from my fist.

I feel like I’m going to lose my head.

I bite down so hard I think my teeth will shatter.

I am ashamed of myself for not having done this before.

I am ashamed of myself for putting it off for another time, another time, another time….

Shame on myself for thinking that the next time he would do something I didn’t like.

I was shaking my body to endure, but I had reached my limit.

I howled, letting out my anger.

“!!!!”

I stomped on the ground as hard as I could, as if I was going to hit the ground.

The concrete ground cracked.

“Only you, only you!”

Blood drips from his biting lip.

The sound of blood vessels breaking can be heard.

“I’ll never forgive you, ！！！！.”

The roar of the boy’s anger echoes through the silent night.

The boy then rushed out to Sato’s guild headquarters.
