A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

― ― "Time” is no longer left.

There is little power left and little time to earn.

The more ambiguous the flow of time in the human being, the more the sun rises and sets thirty times, the more the limits are reached.

If the limit is reached, that's it.

There is a possibility that everything will go to nothing.

The location was bad.

I had no luck.

I didn't have the means to prevent a breach.

Speaking of which, all you have to do is postpone the breach a little bit.

Still, we can't leave the place.

- That's all I know.

"There he goes! Don't burn the woods by mistake!

The voice of a young man echoes in a forest full of lush trees.

Whether or not the height reaches 170cm. The red-brown hair, stretched so far as not to get in the way, is cut in a mess, and you can feel the roughness like a beast chasing your prey from your eyes as you rush through the woods.

At first glance, it looked like it was hardened with leather armor, but “under the leather armor” was lurking with lightweight and sturdy iron armor. With a pattern on his back, he carried a large sword that exceeded his height, and walked through the woods with poor scaffolding, as if he were a beast with a human figure.

"Yes, yes! Stop it properly!

Young people - Reurus' voice echoes back with a sweet voice that belongs to a girl.

The flames sparkled as Reurus ran. Like a geyser, a flame rises from the ground, and the four-armed bear-like monster that Reurus was chasing stops his feet in a panic.

The girl who produced the flame was dignified and royal, and laughed joyfully when she saw the stalled bear.

"Ahahah! You think you can get away from me and Reurus? You're destined to feed everyone in town!

The girl who laughs is small, and whether or not she reaches 140 centimeters in height. Her red hair was long enough to reach her waist, and her red eyes turned red like her hair towards a bear.

"All right! Well done!

Girl - As Sarah sees the flames, Reurus grips the big sword she was carrying. And the haunted bear, who was suddenly braking in front of the flame, pushed in at full speed, and danced with a joyful smile.

"SHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

The Bear looked back in a hurry, but it was too late. Rather, looking back becomes vengeance.

Reurus jumps with his big sword held in both hands on his shoulders, and he waves down the big sword with all his might, regardless of the interceptor's posture.

The power of Reurus and the weight of the great sword. The sharpness was not much, but the “sheath” of Dwarf's great sword "Dragon Slash" firmly grabbed the fat neck of the bear.

--The dull sound of crushing and folding the raw tree echoes around you.

The neck of a bear that has been slashed by Reurus from the diagonal bends unnaturally. Nearly three meters apart, the body of the cloaked bear convulsed, and the four arms that were about to be lifted to intercept were slightly lowered.

"Hmm!

Reurus, who broke the neck of the Bear with a sheath, struck again as he landed. Now I hit the big sword with the trajectory of hitting the neck of a crushed bear from the left.

The body of the Bear is very strong. Although lower, the body classified as intermediate is like a muscle in the whole body, and the muscles around the neck are also very developed.

However, the obsession of Reurus with food in front of his eyes cannot be stopped. If you “smash” a bear with two slashes, you will firmly take the remnants and then solve the stance.

"All right... he's a big guy. Sarah, call Eliza and the others."

"Yes, just a moment."

As soon as Reurus gave the order, Sarah began to speak to distant Eliza with a magic called "Thought Call."

Sarah is called the Spirit of Fire and has a 'contract' with Reus. Not only Sarah, but also Eliza, a bloodsucking girl, had such a "contract."

Sarah's "Call to Thought" reaches Eliza, either because Reus has a "contract" or a short distance away.

"Eliza, Eliza, this is over."

"Hmm... I'll be right there, so don't move.

After a brief exchange, Eliza shows up in a few minutes.

She looks just like Sarah, but the familiar Reurus makes the difference. Although it is similar, it is only similar to the elite sisters.

Unlike Sarah, the color of her hair is peach blonde. Face parts looked just like Sarah, but unlike innocent and cheerful Sarah, Eliza had a slightly grown face.

Eliza is a species called a bloodsucker, and she's been through a lot of hardship around her face.

"Wow... this time it's a big one. Me, I've never seen such a big Orzo before."

Slightly behind such Eliza, a smaller girl than Eliza or Sarah approached with a groan that impressed her.

A girl with long brown hair cut into shortcuts, her thick eyes are striking. However, the small size and appearance of the car are so huge that they seem to be lying.

A wooden luggage truck that seems difficult to pull even for large adults. He tows it by himself and pours a surprise gaze at the bears lying on the ground.

The little girl, Meer, left the truck and began to dismantle the broken bears in a familiar manner. There was no change in the way he handled it. He took off his clothes and peeled off the fur of a bear.

Meer is a subhuman called dwarf and is known for his dexterity and strength. It was easy to pull the truck and dismantle the monster.

"Recently, the monster saw me and ran away... no, not as much as Eliza."

"Isn't that because you slashed the vanilla the other day? His smell is stained with the sword...."

Reurus and Sarah interact while keeping an eye out for other monsters while not interfering with Meer's work.

Vanille is a firedragon that lives in a place called Volcano Veos and had a three-to-one fight the other day. If they had a fight, they should have done it one-on-one, but there was too much difference in their abilities, so they challenged Reurus, Eliza, and Sarah.

Still, the result is defeat. I managed to take a big bath, but I lost to Vaniel, who wasn't serious.

If it had been a killing rather than a fight, the outcome might have been different, but as a realuse, I don't hate Vernier that much.

I was uncomfortable with the weapon that my benefactor gave me because it broke, but I was troubled by my attitude because I was given the materials to make a new weapon.

The new weapon, Dragon Slasher, is the best partner for Reurus, and the stubbornness he had against Vernier has disappeared. Still, if they say they are going to fight, they will respond, and even as a realuse, they will have trouble expressing their relationship with Vanier.

"... alright! All you have to do is carry it!

Reurus was watching his surroundings, and Mea shouted brightly. When she heard that, Eliza put her hand on the luggage while handing Meer a leather bag with water.

"Well then, next time I'll try to pull it off... it'll be a 'reinforcement' training."

"The monster caught in the smell of blood may come by, so you can take your time.

"And when you get closer, me and Reurus go to finish it off... it's perfect!

The van is already loaded with monster carcasses, but not many of them. It's just a rabbit monster with developed horns. It's unbelievable if you take it as a “quantity".

"I wonder if it's winter or if the monsters are hibernating... no, this bear was huge."

With a white breath, Reurus looks around the surrounding forest.

The season is in full swing into winter, with the sunrise slower and the sunset faster.

The world where Reurus once lived - the cold is milder than in Japan in Heisei, but the cold ones are cold. And if I hadn't searched myself to find out if I was hibernating in winter, whether it was a creature called a monster or not.

The reason Reurus and the others work in the monster hunt is simple. This is because it is an inevitable biological reason to find even a little food to survive the winter.

In a town called Laval Waste Town, where Reurus and the others lived, they were stockpiling food in anticipation of the winter. However, there was a slight food insecurity due to the assistance provided to dwarves such as Meer.

That's why the Reurus, who brought the dwarves, took the lead in the monster hunt.

However, due to the “activity” of the Reurus, no monsters can be found in the vicinity of the abandoned city of Laval. That's why they're stretching their legs and spending a day looking for monsters by dividing themselves into the woods.

Still, the number of monsters found was small, and I felt dark until I found the Bear. It's not “Bowls,” but it's not enough to improve the food situation in the abandoned city of Laval.

Keep searching for monsters, or return to the abandoned city of Laval. In this way, nearly three meters into the troubled area of the bears appeared.

Reus left Eliza and Meer in charge of the van, happily attacking the bear. But normally, when I saw humans, the monsters that attacked me fled immediately. It was a trail play, and it was now over.

"But even at this size, if we split it among the whole town, it'll only be about a meal...."

"We're close, but we're going to run out of food, and I think one meal will suffice... for now, let's head back to town. It's cold, so the meat won't rot, but I want to go back before it hurts."

Reurus shouted at Eliza's words.

The body of the Bear is large, but how much meat, excluding bones and skins, will it be? Including the guts is likely to be quite good, but the city of Laval, home to more than a thousand inhabitants, will only feed on one meal.

Or maybe it should be dried meat and prepared for "what if”.

(Pray that a monster attracted to the smell of blood will come along on his way back to town....)

Reurus, who looked up at the winter sky, could only pray that way.

Despite the monster carcasses in the van, the Reurus returned to Laval Waste City at the same time as they went.

The Adventurers Union will have no choice but to ask for directions on what to do with the meat of the monsters we have taken down. With that in mind, Reurus stepped into the abandoned city of Laval, but something is wrong with the atmosphere of the town.

"... something's wrong."

Eliza leaned strangely as if she had noticed something strange about the town.

It's a revus that warns the redneck that it's gone wild, but the floating atmosphere is not slaughtered. The colour of the confusion was strong, and the residents seemed anxious.

"What happened?

When Reurus catches a man nearby and asks, he turns away to the houses lined up - precisely the wells built between the houses.

"'Monster eater'... no... the water in the well has been waning strangely since yesterday."

In response, Reus raised his eyebrows.
