A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

After a few hours of sleep in a giant tree cave led by a mysterious girl, Reurus woke up and checked his condition.

I swimmed in clothes for less than an hour, but I was very tired after deducting that I had exhausted most of my magic by "caloric liberation". Sleeping made it a lot easier, but I couldn't help but feel heavy.

I thought you might have caught a cold, but it doesn't seem to have a fever even if you put your hand on your forehead. When I woke up and looked out of the hole, I noticed whether it had rained while sleeping or whether the sound of rain had disappeared.

Still, the rain clouds didn't leave, and the surroundings were dim. If the weather changes slightly, it is likely to rain again.

(... where is she?

I can't see the girl who helped me, and Reurus looks around. But there was no girl in sight, and Reurus crawled out of the cave tilting his neck.

(I can't feel the magic... The magic that drifts around is difficult to feel because it gets in the way....)

I try to find out where the girl is by magic rather than by sight, but I can't grasp where the magic floating around is disturbing me. Reurus scratched his cheeks in trouble and decided to explore the surroundings while the rain stopped.

The thick rain clouds don't know where the sun is, but the sun hasn't fallen yet because it's not completely dark. Reurus grabbed the Dragon Slash he had left on the giant tree and wrapped the sword band around his body to secure it to his back.

"Nh... it's heavy..."

It has been a long time since I returned to the physical abilities of Sue, but I usually feel that the love sword of a pleasant weight is very heavy.

Compared to when I was in Shenna Village, it was also muscular, so I couldn't swing my love sword. However, it would be impossible to wave the love sword with one hand indefinitely, even without "caloric release".

(You're talking about how much Eliza and Sarah helped you....)

Lightly kicking the moist ground, Reurus smiled little bitterly.

Since the magic is not completely exhausted, you can't use "caloric release", but even if you can use it, it will be fine for ten seconds. It may still be enough if it is activated instantaneously, but such tricks are impossible for the current Reurus.

Whether luck is good or bad, there are no signs of monsters nearby. Without the 'caloric release', Reurus decided to go to the shore for a while without any trouble walking around.

Step by step, walk to make sure. You can feel the motion slow as if you had even poured lead into your body, but it is “normal” in its current state. If your consciousness keeps up with the sensory differences, you may be able to move your body a little more properly.

--What a luxurious story, Reurus deepened his bitterness.

Had I been myself a year ago, I would not have had such an idea. Compared to when she was treated as a serf in Shena village and worked in the field in fear of monsters every day, there is still a difference in cloud mud in her current state.

After becoming an adventurer in the abandoned city of Laval, the battle against the monsters has slipped away many times into a rich diet. They are thinned out by years of torturous use, which strengthens the flesh of the revus as if it had been forcibly shredded apart from the muscles necessary for agricultural work.

I have become healthy. I also have health. He put on his armor and kept swinging his weapon. He had muscles all over his body. In addition, I have the best weapon in hand, "Dragon Slash".

That being said, the magic sent by Eliza and Sarah broke down and it was "here.”

Perhaps that was the only thing that improved my environment, but I couldn't stop laughing as a revulsion.

(Sometimes I realize that after I lost it... no, I didn't lose it just because it was a distance away.)

If you can get back safely, you might want to stop sending Eliza and Sarah magic and build up your vegetarian abilities. It would be more convenient if they were 'strengthened' by their magic powers.

I don't know if I can stop the magical accommodation by the "contract", but I can't reach it just because I'm far away. The longer you deal with magic, the more possible it will be.

It was a revulsion with thoughts on his own body and the future, but first we need to get rid of the problem in front of us.

I wonder where this place is and where we can meet Eliza and the others. We need to check the status quo to find out - Reurus arrived on the shore early on.

"Seriously... wow, seriously..."

Reurus arrived on the shore in just a few minutes, but looked around and muttered.

Because it stopped raining, Lake Mersena also seems to be recovering a little. The wind is still blowing, so the lake is waving, but at least it's better than when Reurus drowned.

That's good, but Reurus wanted to see the “shape of the shore” and hold his head.

Although not completely circular, the boundary between the sandy beach and Lake Mersena is gently arced. Looking far away, Reurus concluded that it remained the same and that it seemed like an island.

It is possible to be at the tip of a peninsula protruding location, but the surrounding Lake Mersena is very wide and the darkness of the sight does not appear to be combined with land. It would be impossible to think that the ground rises from a distant land and becomes a peninsula.

I can't say for sure because I didn't see the panorama, but I'm standing on a lonely island on Lake Mersena. Reurus scratched his head like he was in trouble.

The girl with blue hair survived, but she still doesn't know where she is. We are surrounded by Lake Mersena at 360 degrees back and forth, so we don't know where to go.

In the first place, how are we going to get there? Fortunately, there are some trees growing, so we may be able to cut them down and replace them with ships. If the trees are drifting, one day we may reach land, but this will be too much hitting.

(I'm sure the weather will heal...)

Reurus looks up at the sky covered in thick rain clouds. It will take time, but if we check the sun's movements, we will be able to determine the general direction.

It was too obvious for me to care, but there was no guarantee that the sun was moving from east to west, as in previous lives.

(No, based on the map you showed me before and the explanation at the time, the movement of the sun should be the same... Speaking of which, if you cut the tree, you can tell the direction with the annual ring? That? But if the sun moves in a different direction than in the previous life...)

Reurus, who felt his thoughts glitter, waves his head several times and switches his consciousness.

Whatever moves, we have to wait for the weather to recover first. Even if we row across the trees to Lake Mersena, if we are swallowed by bad weather again, we will die this time.

(If the sun clears up and your vision improves, you may see land, so do you prioritize recovery first?)

If the weather recovers, we may find land lightly. So thinking positively, Reurus turned his attention to the belly where he was about to complain of hunger, and then turned to the lake surface of Lake Mersena.

The water is cloudy, but the shoreline is shallow and can be seen underwater to some extent. Although it is about three metres from the finest shore, it will suffice to look for fish.

Reurus stares at the water, but nothing moves underwater. The wind had just shaken the surface of the water and not even a single fish could be found instead of a monster.

(I wish it was for a simple reason that the weather was bad and I was moving to another place...)

They may be diving deep to protect themselves from the rough patterns of the lake. However, considering that there were no monsters nearby, it was possible that there were no fish nearby.

When Reurus turned his heel silently, he crouched to the root of a nearby tree. Then when the dagger fixed to the back of the waist was removed from the sheath, the dagger was pulled out and only the sheath was gripped.

A dagger made from refined iron by the dwarves is as robust as a sheath. Though much inferior to the "Dragon Slash" sheath, the metal reinforced dagger's sheath will not break even if handled somewhat roughly.

Reurus silently pushes his sheath to the ground and starts digging silently. Rain-inhaled soil was fairly easy to dig and the roots of the trees were exposed without taking so much time.

(Worms... are there? Well, if the root of the tree is also a thin part, you can "cum”....)

The root of the tree - the thin part near the tip of the tree is cut with a dagger and placed aside.

The grass was growing slightly when I looked around, so I cut it up and put it together.

(Bugs... bugs... damn it, there's no bugs at all)

There are no insects when you dig back into the soil or look around the trees. It's a valuable protein that I took care of in the village of Shenna.

You have to give up what you don't have, and Reus washes the roots of the trees in Lake Mersena. The grass was judged to be fine as it was, and Reurus began to bite at the roots of the trees and grass.

"... yeah, it tastes bad."

Though washed with water, the aroma and taste of rich earth spreads into the mouth. When I was in Chenna Village, I couldn't afford to worry about it or compare it, but in Laval Waste Town - especially in the case of Reurus, where my tongue was beginning to grow in Dominic cuisine - it tasted so bad that it was likely to become a traffic surface.

Still, there is no alternative to eating more than you can. Because it is not a monster, it may not be possible to store it as magic, but it is fine if your stomach is physically swollen.

Once you've chewed through the roots and weeds, drank the water from Lake Mersena back to mouth. It is slightly cloudy, but I can't drink it either.

From now on, bring daily food like dried meat with you at any time. Reurus thought so.

(Now... my stomach is swollen and I'm looking for her.)

While wiping the soil off the edge of his mouth, Reurus walks along the shore.

A blue girl who shows no hostility to Reurus or special interest. There was no other person to talk to at the moment, and I definitely wanted to get some information as a revulsion.

The reaction is unique and can be difficult to respond to as a reuse, but it doesn't make sense. I don't think being in a place like this is a normal child, but I can't afford to worry about that.

"... hmm?

As I walked praying that it would not rain, I felt that the magic that was floating around me was stronger. It is more pronounced than when you feel it in the water, and the revulsion tilts your neck smaller.

(The monster in the soil was hard to feel the magic, and it still feels similar in the water?

It's still better than underwater, but if there is an “obstacle” between the opponent who emits magic, it seems difficult to sense magic.

That's not true if the trees are growing, but sometimes it's that dangerous if you're late to sense magic. Reus admonished himself that more care was needed from now on.

While conscious of the big sword on his back to be able to pull out at any time, Reurus moves forward. In the meantime, I checked the surrounding terrain, but it looks like an island, not a peninsula, as expected.

The topography on the other side is unknown, but the shape of the island seems to be close to a circle. Reurus speculated from the stride that the radius would be about fifty meters.

There are no monsters in this size. If there were monsters, they would be bird-shaped monsters that could fly in the sky. However, that makes it mysterious where the magic that Reurus feels comes from.

…………

Reurus, watching his surroundings, finds the girl and stops his feet. There was a blue girl on the opposite side of the island from the shoreline where she had just eaten the dograss.

Floating in the water? No, the scaffolding... is ice?

However, on the other side of the island, we were not on land. The girl was standing on the surface of Lake Mersena, running over the water with a dancing step.

Is it because of magic, or is it because the girl is such a species? The place where the girl ran froze with a clanking noise.

Without knowing what the girl was doing, Reurus slowly approached with confusion. Then he put his feet on the frozen surface of the lake - the intense chills that he hadn't felt in a long time.

"Hmm!?

Reurus jumps out of the scene as fast as he can. Then he immediately grasped the handle of the Great Sword and used his lost magic to sheath the Dragon Slash.

Icy chills ran through my spine. It is a feeling that should be regarded as a survival instinct, and Reurus constantly looks around.

The girl was not hostile to Reurus. Something else caught my eye on Reurus.

Until then, I had felt thin and magical, but the ferocity of the chills you have felt since you first encountered powerful monsters like Kimira.

The vanilla and the "Castle Collapse" also had powerful magic powers, but I didn't feel this chilly before.

Reus wondered if he felt it extra because his magic was poking at the bottom, and slowly approached the lake surface where he was now on his feet.

Was it originally frozen or was it frozen by a girl? The turbid waters of rough Lake Mersena were not frozen, but there was huge ice as clear as fresh water.

I don't know the size of the ice. How wide is it and how high is it? I don't know why there's so much ice here.

I don't know, but I quickly realized that there was a realuse to observe with a close eye.

"You're kidding... hey..."

And then Reurus murmured, or couldn't believe what was happening in front of him. The “frozen object” in front of me was shocking enough to inadvertently let go of the "Dragon Slash".

No, no, I desperately try to deny it. However, there is no doubt that the open vision captured...

"'Nuclear'...?

In clear ice.

--There was a slime that made the “three nuclei" stupid.
