Ch 51: Edward's Daily life

- A few days after Ray and the other came back from the special Dungeon-

" Girl, I see you have two eyes."

" Eh.. pardon?"

A pretty good-looking man was hitting up with a girl. The man looked like he was the same age as Ray, black-haired, with a ponytail and black glasses. There was a scar on the left of his cheeks, but it somehow only added charm to his appearance.

However, if he thinks that being good-looking is all that matters, he is certainly wrong.

At the beautiful woman who was a bit entranced with his good looking appearance, the man continued to say:

" Hehe, I have two eyes too, isn't it such an incredible coincidence? We are the same even in the smallest thing. Maybe we are really destined to be together."

" ..... "

Suddenly all the good impressions the woman had from the appearance wise vanished out of thin air.

In fact, she really wanted to slap the weird man in front of her, but she was still able to hold herself back in the end.

" Weirdo!" That was the last word of the beautiful woman before she left, leaving the man alone with a pitying look from his surrounding.

However, when everyone else thought that the man would be saddened by the rejection, they heard another sentence that really made them want to smack a sense to the man.

" *Sigh* Another miss, huh. She was really blind to reject me. Well, it was her bad luck to dump this young master, and even if she regretted it later, don't think that this young master would come back to her."

" ..... "

The man then stopped being idle and continued his journey. The meeting with the beautiful woman before was just a coincidence, so there's no need to spend so much time dwelling on it.

After the man left, the crowd who surrounded the man when he hit on the beautiful girl also dispersed, while some of them who knew the man's true identity could only shake their head.

If they didn't know before, No one would relate the retard man before to one of Indonesia's best awakeners, Edward the Great Kuyang.

. . . .

- Edward POV-

' *Sigh* It's really hard being the protagonist of this world. Always lonely on top, no friend, other people were just a tool... How could they imagine the hardship of a protagonist.'

Yeah, our Edward here is the same Edward that is Ray's childhood friend. He was adopted by a big family when they discovered him being awakened a few years ago, and now he has a pretty big name by himself.

Sadly, such a glorious story must be tainted by his personality.

After being tricked by the same little guy that told Ray about Morningwood, Edward believed that he was the protagonist of the world and started getting a syndrome that almost all of us have before, The deadly "Middle-School Chuuni Syndrome."

It was not so bad that Edward would scream explosion or chant a fireball spell in the middle of the crowd, but it still had some impact on his social life.

Other than Ray and the guys on the orphanage, Edward could be said as didn't have any good friends.

Hmm? Why the rejection before didn't make him think that a protagonist should not be rejected by a girl?

In fact, Edward thought differently.

The rejection before has just cemented his belief that he was the protagonist of this world.

In a super coincidence, Edward's first manga was about a protagonist who was rejected 3000 times before eventually saving the world and gaining his true love along the way. From the moment he read that manga, Edward seems to found the true meaning of his life.

Back to the current situation, Edward's destination was actually none other than the orphanage. The time to explore the Dungeon with Ray was getting nearer, and he wanted to tell Ray to prepare.

But when he reached a small food stall near the orphanage, Edward suddenly looked like he had just seen a ghost.

He rubbed his eyes a few times to ensure that what he saw was correct, and soon the shock turned into astonishment.

In front of Edward, a man and a woman who were both familiar to him was like going on a date.

It might seem pretty normal, but the problem is, the identity of the man and woman is Ray and the Big Sis of the orphanage.

The Big Sis, who always takes care of everyone in the orphanage, now was holding Ray's arm like a lover. And even though Ray seemed a bit uncomfortable, he didn't back away from Big Sis.

Watching this, an uncomfortable feeling started to rise in Edward's heart.

Normally, he should be happy his friend finally had a girlfriend, but somehow he could not avoid this uncomfortable feeling.

This feeling was getting stronger and stronger, and even the Great Kuyang Edward couldn't help but have the corner of his eyes get a bit moist.

" Ray... you..."

" I thought we were something special, Ray. I thought we would stay single together and get a wife together. But now, why Ray? Why are you having a relationship with someone!"

Yeah, the uncomfortable feeling that Edward has was not caused because he was in love with Big Sis.

Instead, it was more of a feeling when your best friend suddenly had a girlfriend, and you felt left out.

The one that you thought would always stay single with you, now having a relationship with someone else.

" Ray.. Traitor!!!"

Edward runs away with tears coming from his eyes.

His original intention to remind Ray to prepare for the Dungeon Exploration has been long forgotten, and now he just wanted to go as far as possible from this place.

And unknown to Ray and Big Sis, other than Edward, there is also someone else who felt really jealous that she was suling the whole day, almost making the entire office went riot because their boss was sulking.
