My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero’s

I had never thought of myself, as pitiable.

However, the adults around me said that I was a pitiable child.

I wonder what pitiable means.

Was being pitiable, something the adults around me decide on.

Or, was it a something that I can decide on.

Was it pitiable that my hair was white.

Was it pitiable that my eyes were red.

Was it pitiable that my younger sister was the one who’s exceptional..

I, don’t understand anymore.

Certainly, my younger sister had beautiful hair and eyes, and was extremely strong.

Everything, had always been taken by my younger sister.

My parents, friends, and my fiance who whispered words of love to me should’ve been my allies.

Before I knew it, the entire tribe was on my younger sister’s side, and for some reason, it was said that I tormented my younger sister.

My younger sister cried in front of everyone, and she fervently talked about how cruel I was.

The tribe, everyone, was on my younger sister’s side.

And, I had been exiled from elven territory, and was forced to separate from the sacred tree.

Nobody, believed in my words.

I too, did not believe in anyone.

After that, I left ‘Forest’, and I think I drifted to the humans’ continent ‘Continent’.

While I was in confusion in a forest that I didn’t know, I was eaten by a muddy monster that looked like a black slime.

I was resigned to my death.

Or rather, I thought that I was dead.

The next time I woke up, I was inside of a human dungeon.

If I remember correctly, was the name Continent Dungeon,

A somewhat plain, black haired man gave me food.

I was wondering if that monster that looked like a slime was a reconfigured slime subspecies that the kidnappers that had been making trouble in elven territory recently had released in order to capture elves.

There were two reasons.

The first was that, just before I was eaten, although weak, I had sensed the presence of a human.

In addition to that, it did not seem to be one or two of them.

The village was probably nearby.

If that monster was a man-eating carnivore, it should’ve been better to attack the village, and not me who was by myself.

Even if it would be, more or less, a hard fight, that slime should’ve been able to at least prey upon the villagers that had non-combative occupations.

Even if, an adventurer happened to be there, if it wasn’t a considerably powerful person, if it’s that slime, it would be able to turn the tables on them.

The second reason was the fact that it was, for some reason, in the Continent Dungeon.

In addition to that, it was in a lower floor that was inappropriate for its own strength.

The dungeon monsters fundamentally did not leave their own floor.

There was an exception once every few years.

It was when the monsters overflowed from the dungeon.

At that time, the scrambling monsters move toward the upper floors and come out onto the surface.

The hypothesis that I could come up with from this was that, after capturing me, it would return after taking another person.

Based on how big its body was, it had the capacity to hold at least one more person, and that pseudo-slime that was following someone’s orders was, as a matter of fact, not part of the elven race, and if it were looking to capture a target who had high levels of magic power on par with the demons, the man in front of me who had pretty high levels of magic power, fit that requirement.

Even if I was right, I didn’t know why the kidnapper who did not go after the elves released the monster in the human continent though….

I thought that perhaps this man knew the reason, I used the Eye of the World that all the elves hated because it saw through anything and everything, and looked at the man’s status.

For a short while, I was at a loss for words.

It was obviously, strange.

It was far stronger than the status of my sister who had the highest rank within the Adventurer Guild, the gold rank.

Just speaking of his offensive ability, it surpassed the previous demon lord.

Despite this, his presence, in some respects, was thin.

Strong people had something like a unique presence, but I couldn’t feel it from this man.

When I stared at him, the mysterious man stared back at me, so for the time being, I screamed so that it wouldn’t raise suspicions.

Perhaps it had been hard on my throat that had not taken in food nor water in quite a long time, when I screamed for a bit, it started getting hoarse.

Knowingly or unknowingly, he presented roasted monster meat and bread to me.

Immediately after that, my stomach growled.

It was improper, but I snatched them away and ate in the corner.

That was when, I met Akira..

Giving an unfamiliar girl, one who came out of a monster on top of that, food and water, Akira didn’t avert his eyes even when he saw my face, and he didn’t make a face.

On the contrary, he said that he hated the word ‘perfect’.

For me whom those of my own race did not believe in, those words, even if it was just that much, made me happy.

「Akira, are my hair and eyes, weird?」

Even when I asked him like that, Akira will definitely not avert his eyes.

And, he strangely answered as if it were really obvious.

「What are you saying? I still do not know of anyone who has hair and eyes that are prettier than yours.」

Akira had yet to see my younger sister, but nevertheless, I thought, if it’s Akira….

If it’s Akira, even if he saw my younger sister, it seems that he would be on my side.

Besides, my heart beat fast when I’m near him, and my heart jumped from nothing more than a brush of skin.

This was definitely, love.

There was no reaction even when faced with the beautiful faces of the elves from my tribe, but as soon as Akira patted my head, my cheeks turned red.

I want to, always be by Akira’s side.

No matter what happens, I will be Akira’s ally.

Even if, Akira made an enemy of the world, at the very least, I will be by Akira’s side.

Really, just when did I solemnly swear this in my heart.

That vow will not fade, it was in my heart.

「Akira, let’s stay together forever.」

「Ah-.
you’ll be by my side, right?」

「Un.」

For this moment alone, I could even thank my younger sister.

If I hadn’t been betrayed by those from my tribe, I would not have met Akira.

That’s why, Kirika Rose Quartz and all those other people of my tribe, thank you for betraying me.
