As Long as You Have the [Shop] Skill, the Dungeonized World Is a Breeze ~The Bullied Youth’s Payback Lifestyle~ - Chapter 202
Chapter 202 â Awkward Man
âFirst, I would like to thank you for agreeing to meet with us.â (Kuzuhara)
It was Kuzuhara who opened up the discussion.
âOh, not at all. There was also something I wanted to make sure of.â (Sayuri)
âSomething you wanted to make sure of?â (Kuzuhara)
âThe matter about the âInochi-shirazuâ.â (Sayuri)
ââŠ! Come to think of it, that meddling bastard over there did say that you were the only one who wasnât surprised upon hearing about Ryudou.â (Kuzuhara)
Meddling bastard? Iâm gonna make him pay an extra 30% next time I sell him medicine just for that.
âThatâs because I was once held captive by this man called Ryudou.â (Sayuri)
âYou were there when Chake invaded Ryudouâs base with the Apostles of Peace, right?â (Kuzuhara)
âYes. I knew that the Inochi-shirazu led by you and the âInochi-shirazuâ led by Ryudou were different entities.â (Sayuri)
She must have heard about it when she was being held captive. Or maybe she looked into it after being set free.
âIt doesnât add up. Why would you side with Ryudou?â (Sayuri)
âI wasnât siding with Ryudou. The evils he committed while acting as the Inochi-shirazu were all to harass me.â (Kuzuhara)
âTo harass you?â (Sayuri)
ââŠI had incurred his enmity. But that has already all come to an end.â (Kuzuhara)
âBecause Ryudou is dead. I looked into the matter, but is it really true?â (Sayuri)
âYeah⊠I killed him with my own hands.â (Kuzuhara)
Ryudou, huh? He really was a hopeless guy until the very end. Some might say that he deserved to die, but he was such worthless scum that he didnât even deserve such an easy death.
I felt that people who hurt and killed people without any regard for human life were better off dead. Like Ohsaka, for example.
âI see⊠The Maidenâs Rebirth Order would have liked to get their revenge.â (Sayuri)
There were many followers who had been hurt by Ryudou. They finally had the power to get revenge, so it must have been tough for them to not be able to get vengeance in the very end.
For Sayuri, it would be avenging her children and her husband, Yaichi. And for the women whose attack I had stopped earlier, it would be her little brother.
If my father or mother had been cruelly murdered by them, I definitely would have also wanted to get revenge.
âLet me ask you something. Earlier, you were being charged at by one of my followers with a knife, but you didnât move an inch. Were you seriously planning to die?â (Sayuri)
This might have been what Sayuri wanted to ask from the start.
Hearing her question, Kuzuhara looked straight into Sayuriâs eyes before speaking.

âI donât know what it was. I just felt like I shouldnât avoid it.â (Kuzuhara)
âWhy is that?â (Sayuri)
âNo reason. Itâs just that my heart felt it and my body followed.â (Kuzuhara)
âYou would have had no regrets if she killed you as a result of a misunderstanding?â (Sayuri)
âDunno. If I was still conscious after dying, I probably would have regretted it a lot. But as I said before, none of this tragedy would have occurred if I hadnât existed. When I thought of that, I couldnât bring myself to move.â (Kuzuhara)
I felt that Kuzuhara was overthinking things. His own life hadnât been easy by any means. He had experienced a horrific past that wasnât any better than the tragedies the people of the order had faced.
Everything was caused by Ryudou, who was also undoubtedly a victim in his own way.
And yet, Kuzuhara always tried too hard to carry everything on his shoulders. He really was an awkward man.
âI see. I think I have an idea of what kind of person you are now. Thatâs all I have to ask. Thank you for answering.â (Sayuri)
Now, it was Kuzuharaâs turn to speak, regarding the purpose of his visit.
âI donât like to beat around the bush. So Iâll cut straight to the point. Is it true that you Maidenâs Rebirth Order are going around killing men?â (Kuzuhara)
Kuzuhara and his organization worked to uphold the security of the city. There was no way they wouldnât know about the Maidenâs Rebirth Order.
âWe are simply purifying the world in the name of God.â (Sayuri)
âPurifying?â (Kuzuhara)
Yeah, I know exactly what youâre thinking. It doesnât make any sense, does it?
Sure enough, Kuzuhara furrowed his brows as if to say, âwhat in the world is she talking about?â.

âSince the world has changed, a lot of blood and tears have been shed. Absurd and irrational situations have become painfully common. And in many of those cases, people have hurt others.â (Sayuri)
ââŠ! So thatâs what this is all about. You all want revenge on the men who hurt you?â (Kuzuhara)
âPlease donât lump it in with something as debased as revenge. This is purification. We are simply sending the defiled beings back to the wheel of reincarnation to guide this world towards peace.â (Sayuri)
ââŠGeez, are you serious?â (Kuzuhara)
I totally get you, Kuzuhara. But Sayuri and the followers believed in this wholeheartedly and were acting accordingly.
âBut according to my investigations, you have been targeting men who have committed no wrongs whatsoever. Is murdering a completely unrelated man considered purification in your eyes?â (Kuzuhara)
âThey are not unrelated. Any man is a subject of purification.â (Sayuri)
âYou have all been hurt by men before, without a doubt. Itâs true that in this world, the number of incidents caused by men has been increasing, especially where women are the primary victims. However, there are many guys who are living honest, upright lives.â (Kuzuhara)
âWe also lived honest, upright lives. We werenât causing trouble for anyone else. But men did as they pleased and twisted our lives beyond repair.â (Sayuri)
âBut that doesnât mean that all men are bad! There are guys who live their lives desperately from day to day, caring for their friends, lovers, and family. What you all are doing is just spreading hatred!â (Kuzuhara)
He was right. As a human being, it was normal to have parents, siblings, lovers, and friends. Killing people severed those connections and bred hatred.
And those people who harbored grudges as a result of this would one day kill one of Sayuriâs people. This would create even more hatred and cause even more fighting to break out.
It would just repeat and repeat, and the cycle of hatred would never come to an end.
