Transfer complete.
For the first time in ages, I arrived at the
I booted up the PC and checked the date.
Just as I'd calculated — December 24th, Christmas Eve.
I launched the game right away.
After so long, I logged in with my trusty, nostalgic Bald Geezer.
Well, I say "after so long," but that's only from my perspective. In reality, it was my first time.
The reason I came here today was to take part in the game's limited-time Christmas event.
I'd come back here on a whim — despite having no intention of ever returning.
For some reason, I just had this nagging feeling that I absolutely had to participate in this event.
Normally, D would be the one to do it, but he isn't around right now.
...No way, but — there's no chance he's got me under his control, is there?
Like, because he can't do it himself, he's having me do it in his place?
No way.
There's no way he's that incompetent.
He isn't... right?
Well, whatever.
Even if that were the case, there's no real harm done.
I'm just playing a game, after all.
If it really were true, though — well, no, it'd genuinely tick me off. Quite a bit.
Yeah.
Let me not think about it.
For now, let me just enjoy the game.
Here we go!
As always, a magnificent Bald Geezer!
Wicked, tough, awesome!
In high spirits, I solo-cleared the event boss monster.
Phew.
This boss was designed for a whole raid party to tackle.
Before I knew it, I'd activated Thought Acceleration and gone all-out from the middle.
I only won because there was no time limit, but it took ages to bring down.
Incidentally, in this game, each party gets a separate boss room, so me hogging the boss for ages wasn't an issue.
I glanced at the clock.
Whoa.
The date had changed.
Merry Christmas.
Hmm.
Since I'm at it, maybe I'll go buy some chicken and cake.
Money? I've got it.
It's technically D's, but it's fine to use, right?
I'll just borrow his clothes too.
We should be the same size.
And so, here I am at the convenience store, stuffing my face with chicken.
I could barely keep my eyes open, so the clerk gave me a strange look, but other than that, everything went smoothly.
Man, there were so many people.
Because it's Christmas?
Christmas parties and drinking get-togethers must be going on everywhere.
Those normies.
I felt like I had to say that.
No, it's not like I care or anything.
I have zero interest in romance.
Besides, I'm a god — there's hardly any point in having children.
I'm practically immortal, so having kids would be pointless.
—Ah, but Kuro and the others are gods too, and they still go around dating, so I guess it's not impossible.
Romance.
I just don't get it.
I'm happier just lazing around by myself like this, eating and sleeping.
What do you call something like this again?
A love-lorn woman?
