Confined Together with the Horror Game’s Male Lead - Chapter 6

Chapter 6

Translator: Yonnee

Dietrich looked at me with a puzzled frown.

Why did you decide to care about me?

I guess because you caught my eye?

To be honest, there was no big reason behind my actions.

It was just the humane thing to do not to let someone else die right in front of my eyes. Its only common sense.

But the problem was, to him, I was the one who forcibly locked him up in this place, so from the very first time we met, common sense had been chucked out the window.

If thats the case, then Ill just disappear from your eyes now. I wont appear in front of you, and you wont have to care.

Clearly not wanting to be in any way involved with me, Dietrich tried to turn around and leave.

I told you not to though.

I grabbed the arm of the man whos right in front of me, but he just grimaced at me with such displeasure.

As if there was a bug sticking on him.

What exactly are you doing?

I told you already. Youve caught my eye, so you have to eat.

If I let go of this arm, hes going to starve soon.

Thats why Im asking, why do you even care about Ha.

As the conversation was back to square one, Dietrich folded his fingers over mind and leaned down towards me.

Youre really not making any sense.

Sorry.

At my apology, Dietrich paused. He seemed to be very surprised.

Im not asking you to apologize.

I also know that Im just going in circles with what Im saying.

But still, just try to understand my position here.

I had been in this mansion all alone until now.

Because of the steel mentality skill, my emotions had become numb, and my social skills had worsened after a long period of time.

I agree very much with the saying that human beings were social animals.

Anyway, theres nothing wrong with the food, so theres nothing for you to worry about.

Will you let go of me if I eat?

Yes, I wont bother you anymore.

Dietrich looked at the food with quite a leer, but he soon took a fork anyway, holding it in such a disgusted way, too.

Then, he sliced through the steak slowly.

After taking a piece, he carefully chewed it. He realized that theres nothing wrong with it, so he then proceeded to eat the rest slowly.

[ Satiety: 30/100 ]

[ Satiety: 50/100 ]

[ Satiety:

Arent you going to eat?

Dietrich glanced at the tray I was fiddling with.

Ill eat later.

Then why do you continue sitting here when you seem to be uncomfortable eating with me?

Hes misunderstanding why I wasnt eating with him.

He was quite certainly wrong about that though.

If I eat with you, youre the one wholl feel more uncomfortable.

I couldnt remember clearly because I had been staying in this mansion for so long now, but I had no recollections of me originally being this shameless.

I probably would have tried to avoid an awkward situation, especially in these circumstances, and I probably would have constantly felt sympathetic towards the man in front of me.

However, such feelings were no longer there because of the steel mentality skill.

Then why do you keep watching me?

Because I feel happy just watching you eat?

Its uncomfortable. Extremely.

I had only blurted out that, but I guess it sounded like a mothers words.

As if he didnt want to talk to me anymore, Dietrich finished eating alone.

[ Satiety: 100/100 ]

When he finally finished his meal, his satiety was replenished in full.

I smiled contentedly.

But as though he was looking at something unpleasant, Dietrichs expression crumpled as he set down the silverware.

Then, Ill be on my way. I did as you said, so do not try to keep me here anymore.

Good job. You can go now.

Without another word, Dietrich stood up from his seat. He must not want to stay here with me for a second longer.

I watched his retreating figure as he left the room, but right then, a system window popped up.

[ After the system upgrade, new features have been added.

New featuresWith Charlottes permission, would you like to confirm? ]

[ Yes / No ]

I tapped Yes repeatedly.

Ability to wipe the windows to the point of luster.

Ability to select steak sauce.

???

???

What the heck is all this? Whats with the question marks? What kind of abilities are hidden?

Besides, whats with the lousy abilities like wiping windows and choosing steak sauce?

I dont think Ill ever use those.
