Chapter 38 - Burden

Kelly was certain the boys in his class who all hated him would jump at this new chance to belittle him. The rest of his classmates all had combat-based jobs, and he highly doubted Lacking a 'job' would be that much of a hindrance.

Reo taking Daichi's cue grinned wickedly as he hollered out to Kelly,

 "Hey Kamimura. Don't tell me you seriously got a no 'job'? how are you gonna fight monsters like that? Hey william isn't, that gonna be a big problem if out of all of us only Kamimura doesn't have a job"

"Well, if we are talking about progress then, yes. He would be a little slower than others but aside from th…"

"Hahahahahaha, are you kidding me"

When Sir William tried to explain further. He was cut off by Reo's loud laughter.

"Gimme a break Kamimura. How are you gonna fight like that, you are gonna die. Guess we don't have to worry about who is going down first"

Reo folded his arms provocatively as he said those words. As Kelly looked around, he could see that most of his classmates, the boys especially, were all laughing at him.

"Who knows. You never know until you try, right!"

"Is that so! If you are so confident, then how about you show your status plate to us. I was laughing so hard when I heard you didn't have a 'job' that I couldn't take a proper look at it"

 Under the gazes of everyone, Kelly reluctantly gave his status plate to Hiyama,

"They better be high in other aspects."

Hiyama had most likely already seen Kelly's stats, but he simply wanted an excuse to bully Kelly some more. He possessed quite a nasty personality. His two flunkies all jeered at Kelly as well. They were the kind of stereotypical thugs that feel good when basking in their own superiority. Their actions were so clearly malicious that Haruka and Sumire both glared at them, eyes full of disdain.

When he saw the stats engraved on it, Hiyama burst out laughing. He passed the plate down to his other underlings and they all sneered or laughed at Kelly as well.

 "Bwahahaha... What the hell, man! You're totally average! Actually, 2's are a little above average, so I bet you could be compared to children's!"

"Hyahahaha, you've gotta be kidding me! This guy's not even gonna last ten minutes! He'd die so fast that you couldn't even use him as a meat shield!"

"And aside from the same skill we all got, he only has one other."

Unable to stand it any longer, Haruka opened her mouth to give them a piece of her mind. But before she could get out a single word, someone else began yelling at them in a pathetically low voice. That someone was surprisingly Sumire.

"Hey! Stop laughing at him! I won't allow anyone to laugh at him. Please return his plate"

The boys were all taken aback by how much anger was visible in her eyes. But in order to hide the fact that they became intimidated by someone like Sumire they glared at her with much more intensity than before.
