New Chapter!!!
Enjoy~~:3
---------------------------------------------------------
"Finally. Bed, my beloved~" I threw my body on the one of the humankind's greatest invention.
So fluffy~ Mum has a good eyes.
I would love to skip dinner and sleep away but unfortunately, I can't sleep if I am hungry. And I stinks for not having a bath for 2 days.
I mean. The cold lakes are too much for this sheltered lady.
I heard there were a bath here. I probably need to go even if it cost money.
I go downstairs and met the receptionist aunty.
"Auntyyy~ I want a bath."
"It will be 3 copper."
I sulked when I take out money from the wallet. Somehow it's painful to take it out when you have a limited budget
By the way. The currencies in this world is consisted of copper, silver, gold, and platina gold coins.
So to simplify it. 1 silver is 100 coppers. 1 gold is 100 silver, and 1 platina gold is 100 gold. Simple right?
The aunty accepted the money with a smile and with the same smile she go to the back and she give me....
.....A basket of lukewarm water.
What the fuck?!
"Go to the back. You can took your bath there."
The aunty pointed at the back door.
The fuck?!
"Where's the bath tub or shower?!"
The aunty raised an eyebrow. Confused by my word.
"If you want a bath tub just go to the lake and if you want a shower just go to the waterfall there."
....
I will add 'having a bath' as one of my objective....
×××
I returned to my room, unsastified.
The bath are horrible.
It's either hot or cold and there's no soap. So I smell nothing.
Even the food are undesirable.
The bread is hard and the bacon is thick. It's just solely made to be just edible.
As a Japanese person. I can't forgive this.
Perhaps. If I use my knowledge from my previous life, I can reform the grace of my country's food here?
Oh yeah, I forgot.
I'm a shit cook.
So I suppose I have to earn money. So I can buy a good food.....
Noble's food is no difference from the westerners food. So it will suffice.
"Now for money..."
I would love to start my own business. But of course. There's no starting budget.
Selling my body is a no-no. It's the easiest and it probably earn me a lot of money. But as a modern person, I object. This pure body I shall offer to my ikemen husbando that I will hopefully get in the future.
Earning money from adventuring seems to be the best.
Hnn~ But what is Elizabeth's combat ability?
Drinking tea~
Dancing~
Giggling with my lackey like a pack of overdosed mutt....
.....
Shit.
×××
Machiru. Currently coping in my blanket. Giving off the aura of being in shitty situation.

I just remembered.
Elizabeth never fights.
Coping in the noble salon, giggling with other noble lady like a madmutt, and stuffing her face with sweets and black tea. Being in a few hundreds meter from the magic training ground. Why did she do that you say?
It's simple.
Her mana capacity is shit.
Unlike the heroine, who have a humongous amount of mana. Elizabeth is someone who has mana that is equavelant to commoner.
For noble. Having that amount of mana means that person is trash and be disowned by the family. Well, that's for the guy case.
For girl, she will has no choice. But to become a puppet that follows her every parents will.
Elizabeth manage to become the prince's fiancee just because of duke Rose, manipulating somthing from the shadow illegally.
But of course, the prince hates it. Saying that he didn't want trash like her bearing his honorable bloodline.
Rude fellow, isn't it?
Back on topic. So because of her low mana pool. Elizabeth decided to not caring. And focused to train as a queen for that retarded prince instead.
So.... What should I do?
Training in the age of 13 seems unreasonable.
No equipment. No combat ability. And a limited budget.
I want to cry. But in the ends it will do nothing except pulling the heartstrings of ikemen, or possibly a nice girl.
Should I just work in some inn?
Showing my brilliant face infront of my costumer.....
A huge amount of cash will coming in....
A rumoured beauty will reached noble....Even royalty.
A prince in the white horse will come through the shaggy front door and slap money to my boss's cheeks.
Chain me and locking me in the room....
And everynight he will come and took my-
"WHY DO I IMAGINE A RAPE MANGA SCENEEEEE"
I rolled in a bed with super high speed.
×××
After throwing tantrum, I feel unexpectly better.
"Now...." I took out a pen and empty notebook.
This world is a game.
So it seems obvious the system here will be similar.
So the class will be like this
Ninja
Samurai
Duelist
Priest
Brawler
Archer
Mage
Summoner
Knight
Monk
Enchanter
Tamer
Assassin
There's other class but it's the only class that I can probably do.
I think I will pick the class that I use in previous life. Ninja, Samurai, Monk.
I like that class because it seems cool. But I have another reason.
This class doesn't require magical power. But solely relies on 'qi'
I'm too lazy to give the full details but qi is a life energy that blah blah blah it's not a magical power but it's similar to it.
But of course. I can't just learn 3 class at the time. So I need to choose between the 3...... To make money.
Now what's the easiest way to earn money?
Actually when I think about it. Immediately fighting monster without proper experience is reckless. Plain reckless.
Advertisement
I mean, I live in a peaceful life for both life away from violence. Of course, I have no fighting experience.
What happen if I froze with the sight of my wound and get striken more by monster....Urghhh, I hate pain.
So I will leave Monk, and Samurai for later.
So that leaves Ninja.
So Ninja's specialty........
Spying, sneaking, assasinating, and...
"Information selling."
I smiled while I closed my notebook.
×××
"Uhehehehehehe"
I, Machiru. Laugh like a maniac on the backstreet of the capital. Holding something like a pickaxe, digging up the concrete wall.
I'm not doing anything shady, really.
"Found it!" I took out a worn out cylinder that you can call a scroll.
Ninja class is a technique that is lost a long time ago.
Even in the game, you just can't have that class easily.
Thanks to my, 'valuable sensor' ability. Which is the pride of the Senjou family. I can find the requirements to be a ninja class easily. Even in this huge capital.
This scroll is the requirements.
And it's mine.
"Uhehehehehehehehe." I laugh like a maniac once again. While walking to the inn stealthily
Before I know it. That place has become famous haunted spot known as 'The laughing girl with pickaxe'.
×××
I immediately rushed to the inn, go to my room and make sure I lock the door.
I nervously gripped the scroll in my hand.
If I can use it. I might be the only ninja in this world. Well because most people choose Assassin if they want to lurk around.
I feel so special to be honest.
And I gently opened the scroll.
"OHOHOHO~ FINALLY I CAN GET OUT FROM THAT STUFFY PRISON!!"
A floating old man came out.
His crumply hands hold my boobs.
×××
"Wait a minute! Don't you feel sorry for this old man?! Are you a demon?!"
That old man fall on the floor while waving his hand signaling that he surrendered. His eyes is full of fear.
Hnn~ Strange. I just hold a pickaxe and walk closer to that old man. You don't need to be so paranoid.
"Welll~ I'm just joking." I relaxely sit in the bed. Only when I put down the pickaxe that old man's expression calmed down.
"Does this injuries look like a joke to you?!" He pointed at his inflated face.
"I just want to test if I can touch you or something." I smiled, trying to be polite.
"Seriously. Such rude thing to do to this old bone, as a compensation, let me touch you-"
*WHAM*
The old man's face is full of shock when he see a heavy boots is an inch away from his crotch.
'If you by chance meet an awfully shady guy, you can strike their family jewel.'
I remember what my dad(future) told me.
I'm being polite here because he's an old man. Totally not because he's the only one that can teach me ninja skill.
But he's a guy and I must heed to my parent's advice. Totally not because I ran out of patience
So say goodbye to your son~
Before I can target his crotch, that old man vanished suddenly. Invisibility?!
"OVER THERE!" I round house kicked what's behind me. And my leg hits something's hard.
The wall cracked. And I see that old man appearing like a ghost, sticking on the wall.
×××
"So what did you need to say?"
"I'm sorry..." That old man sit on seiza.
"Well, I'm sorry too for hurting a frail old man like you. So let's put this behind us and give me the ninja skill already."
The moment that old man came out the scroll immediately dissapeared so I deduced that old man is the ninja scroll itself.
So just give it to me, okay?
"But you need to fulfill this requirement." The old man's face was suddenly serious.
"Oho~ So what is it?"
"Bring a girl's panties for me."
"Okayyy~ I need to get out for a bit. Just wait here."
"Wait, you seriously will do it?!" That old man's face just filled with shock and excitement.
I just smiled behind my mask and close the door.
×××
"Police. That's the guy." I pointed at the old man and the town's guard apprehended that old man.
"Wait! What about stoling a girl's panties for me?! You tricked me!" That old man's face is full of disbelief while he look at me.
"How..... Horible*sob*. To force me to steal someone's underwear even when you have your way with me.... How will I face my parents now?" As I continued to fake cry. The female guard just patted my back in pity and glared at that old man.
"Wha- Bullshit, I was conned! I am innocent!"
The male guard doesn't even loosened his grip. "The first statement that you just said is already enough of an evidence. Just be quiet as we gonna introgate you further in the office." The male guard just continued dragging him to the guard station while that old man just trying to proved his innocence, attracting a few passerby.
The female guard just hold my hand. "It's okay, you're safe now."
"*sniff* Really?" And the brown haired girl nodded in assurance.
"If this still traumatized you. Just come to the police station, I will listen to your problem. My name is cynthia, by the way."
"My name is Machiru, thank you very much!" She smiled at me and follow her colleague, I waved at her parting figure.
Mum, there is a nice people in this town.
I looked the moon. It's strangely more beautiful than before.
I, Machiru just done my first good deed in my new life. I feel strangely happy somehow~
I crossed the ninja class from my list.
Satisfied, I went back inside the inn.
I will took assassin course tomorrow~

Rantings of the Broken
These are poems of my thoughts. Since I can't talk to people about them, I need to talk to someone about my thoughts, even if they're reading it over a screen. They may be dark and you may see the brokeness inside, but hopefully I will be able to find hope and a reason to live. If you don't want to read the story, that doesn't offend me. You'll just be ignoring the cries of the broken.
