I Died and Became a Hollow, But I Get Stronger by Being an Idiot Chapter 27: The Idiot Gillian’s Day Out

In Hueco Mundo, there's only one rule for every Hollow:

Fight. Eat. Survive.

It's a brutal world where the strong devour the weak, and the only law is power.

Except for .

I'm not normal. I follow my own sacred rule:

Sleep. Do sothing stupid. Sohow survive.

And so far? It works.

Today, while other Hollows were clawing each other apart, I woke up half-buried in the sand. Only my giant Gillian mask poked out of the pale dunes.

I stretched my huge arms with a low, rumbling groan.

"GRUOOOOOOHHHHH…"

(Translation: Ah… what a beautiful night… again.)

The ever-present eternal night stretched overhead like usual.

No sun, no stars. Just endless darkness.

Honestly, I don't know if it's been a day, a week, or a year since I got stuck like this.

But hey — ti ans nothing to a Hollow.

Today's idiot plan?

Challenge the sky again.

I raised one long arm dramatically toward the heavens.

"ROOOOAAAAAAHHH!!!"

(Translation: I, the Great Idiot Gillian, declare war upon the endless night sky!!)

Of course, the sky didn't answer.

Perfect start.

Next, I decided to build a bone throne.

I gathered discarded Hollow mask fragnts and stacked them up, plopping my massive Gillian butt on top.

The whole thing instantly collapsed.

"GUUUOOOHHH…"

(Translation: As expected.)

Not done yet, I dragged so cracked bones and set them upright, then began blowing into them like musical flutes.

No sound ca out, except for eerie, horrible wind-like howls.

"GRUOOOOOOOOOHHH!!"

(Translation: Behold, my Hueco Mundo Symphony No. 1!!)

A few passing Hollows glanced my way. So backed off.

Others just ignored like I was so walking bad on.

Good.

Better alone.

This is my life.

Other Hollows fight, devour, and claw their way up the food chain.

I sleep, I act like an idiot, and sohow… I keep surviving.

I don't know if it's the System's fault or my own weird luck.

But my EP ter now reads:

[CURRENT EP: 21,860 / 1,000,000]

One idiotic step at a ti, closer to becoming the dumbest Adjuchas ever.

And I wouldn't have it any other way.
