A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

- "That's all I know."

The words spoken by the blue girl are familiar words even as a revulsion. You can say “familiar.”

I don't know what the girl thought and said that. Perhaps, in words from the bottom of my heart, I don't know anything else as a fact. But the words remind Reurus of the past.

Memories of living days in the village of Shenna, the village of birth, which seems distant now.

It has not been a year since Reus reached the abandoned city of Laval. In other words, if you go back a year, you can remember anything you don't want.

For Reurus, the village of Shena is the place where personality was formed in this world. Abominable memory of being born from parents, dying at a young age, and being used as cruelty every day until she turned fifteen.

Such a village of Shena, it wasn't just Reurus who was in a harsh environment. There were a few people in a position that could only be described as slaves.

“Ordinary” villagers in the upper echelons of the village. And the Reurus - the serfs.

Farmers do simple, yet harsh, agricultural work. It was also the work of the farmers to cultivate the fields that had been built outside the village of Shena, and it was not uncommon for the monsters to attack Leurus like his parents had lost their lives.

Soldiers were there to prevent the threat of monsters, but the villagers were not enough to take the lead in helping the serfs. It is an uncertain “lifeline” that if the timing is right, if the monster is weak, he can be helped.

There is no prospect for the future, there is plenty of daily life, and there is no room or temper to defy the people in the village.

The only thing I know about doing the work I've been given is the farmers in Shena.

In that regard, Reurus was no different from other serfs. If there is a difference, there is a memory of the previous life. Even in the previous life, I worked so hard to die, and there was a spirit that could withstand the crude food given in Shena village.

In such a revulsion, common sense and selfishness could not do much in a different world. Speaking of which, I must say, I mourned the slave who lost his life just as badly as my parents did.

Even that was ordered by the upper echelons of the village, but if Reurus did not do it, it would have been left to other serfs, who had lost their lives due to stacked fatigue.

Reurus survived to adulthood and fled after Kimira attacked him where he was sold as a mine slave, but he was lucky enough to say so.

He scratched the eyes of the upper echelons of the village, ate insects and weeds, and hungered over them. He remembered the words of this world, but after all, he said “that's all.”

I could not escape from the village of Shena by my own will or help other serfs.

Save the serf and run, but there was no way to go or earn support. Running away from the village of Shena, I didn't know where the other towns and villages were. Running away from the village of Shenna and becoming a bandit, he would have died a few days after being attacked by a monster without weapons or armor.

Even if there are memories of the previous life, it is such a thing. Even now that we can freely handle "caloric liberation", the Reus at that time reached the abandoned city of Laval alive, and what was saved by Dominic and Corona was only a miracle caused by coincidence.

That's why I think it's such a revulsion.

If that's all you know, you should know from now on.

"It's sad that it doesn't taste... I can't help it because I want to drink your salt soup..."

Reurus murmured as he threw the sliced skins into his mouth one after the other. The expression looked sad as I said, and the eyebrows with the eight characters made me feel sad.

"Salt soup?

"Yes, salt soup. This is the first dish that my life saver has made me eat, and this is delicious... I don't think there's anything more delicious to eat."

A blue girl leans her neck and Reurus answers.

There will be a correction for hunger on the verge of starvation called "kindness” for the first time in the world, but for Reurus, there is nothing more delicious than Dominic's salt soup.

Reurus told such a story and the girl nodded somewhere interesting.

Is there nothing the girl can do but freeze the slime, or stay away from the realuse? Perhaps he was alert to the slime coming, but as far as Reurus could see, he couldn't move as the girl told him.

But it's only a few days left. It's a revulsion that I've been eating by cutting slime all night since the girl saved me, but I can understand the girl's story if I stay by the slime.

It is true that the “outside” of the slime is frozen, but the ice may have melted inside. Slowly, however, three "nuclei" were moving around, and it seemed like they were trying to unbind the ice.

"If I had condiments, I could eat them even more deliciously... so I guess the slime is not delicious, but the condiments are just delicious."

"Seasonings......"

"Do you have salt, sugar... or pepper? I hope there's more soy sauce... but the rice I ate last time was tasty, and even if there was soy sauce, could it be tasty?"

Because the skin of the slime is very hard while still frozen, it is a revulsion that uses the "Dragon Slash" to routinely cut into rough pieces, then roll it onto the beach to thaw, and cut it from the melted pieces with a dagger and throw it into the mouth.

Whether the weather is gradually recovering or not raining, Reurus continues to eat slime at best.

There was a fire next to such a revus. With the help of a girl who was somewhat reluctant, she cut down a nearby tree, dried it, and torched it with flint.

The aim is to ensure night vision, but I also try to bake and eat slime skin. The taste hardly changed, and it was too hot to burn my tongue.

(Hmm... I don't think it tastes good or bad. But you can eat it “normally”... I told you that the slime was sturdy, but is it a little soft because it was cut into pieces?

Perhaps the slime's inherent robustness has also been lost by being cut off from the body. Still hard enough to make the Reurus difficult.

For the record, I have given up eating the “contents” of the slime. Whatever part of the skin is, I can't be reckless as long as I hear that even a metal weapon will melt.

(If it's frozen, you'll cum... no wonder. I'm not scared to die from melting inside my belly....)

When I cut it with Dragon Slash, I only cut the skin as much as possible.

I don't know if the robustness of Dragon Slash is better because it is frozen, but the blade has not been chipped so far. If a love sword that can't even let go on the verge of water death destroys the blade, it is a Reurus that does not know what action it will take, but if you want to defeat the slime, you will need to use Dragon Slash.

"Are you okay eating so much?

"I've been hungry for a long time... and I don't care how much more monsters I eat. I'll digest it right away."

I'm not sure if digestion is really happening in my body, but I've never broken my stomach since I was born into this world's body. At the same time, I don't remember feeling full.

"I eat as much as the trees grow over there... people are amazing"

"Can you still eat? I don't feel like I'm eating anything just because I'm forcibly packing it."

He barely bites and swallows the skin of the slime. Although it is cut small to make it easier to pass through the throat, I am worried about when it will catch my throat.

(What is it... I... I, I, I... soba?

The way I ate the whole thing without chewing it stimulated my memories of my previous life. I've never tried it, but I feel like there was such a dish. Compared to the current state of eating slime skins without taste, it must be heaven.

"You..."

"It's Reurus, miss. I'd like you to call me by my name, if you don't mind."

Reurus interrupts the girl who is getting used to talking to Reurus or trying to say something. If you don't have a name like a girl, then Reurus has a name.

(Rather than being called you, it feels like your distance has shrunk... well, "you” means zero distance.)

The girl wandered her gaze to Reurus, who wanted her name to be called with a bitter smile. Even though she said something unexpected, her eyes shifted to the right and to the left.

"Lew... ruth?

Oh.

"Reus"

"Oops... I can call you back if you have a name here."

I'm glad you called my name, but I can't dress up because the girl doesn't have a name. I wish I had a name other than "walrus".

"Name... I am"

"Yeah, I'm sorry about the girl, but it's not her name, it's her first name. For example....."

That's it, Reurus shuts his mouth. As for the name, I was wondering if it would be appropriate to use it in a circumstantial manner because of the “Sarah affair”.

"For example?"

"Ah... well, yeah, well, what is it? I'll ask you one thing before your name, but you're a spiritual girl, right?

Reurus had spoken with Sarah before he appeared as the Spirit of Fire.

In my dream, I was asked, "What's your name?" and I answered, "Salamander Sala-chan." It has been manifested as a trigger and possessed by Reurus - and there is a past that follows.

I accepted it now, but I was worried about Sarah's treatment at that time.

And from Reurus, who officially signed a "contract" with Sarah, the Spirit of Fire, I suspected that the girl in front of me was also a Spirit.

The magic you can feel is smaller than Sarah, but if you've been freezing the slime for a long time, there's nothing you can do about it. Rather, it is surprising that it still possesses a lot of magic.

If a girl were a spirit, she would want to hold her head that she would encounter too many rare beings on the way there. However, considering the water situation in Laval Waste City, I can't complain because there is no more choice.

Probably the Spirit of Water or the Spirit of Ice. Regardless, Reurus thinks, but the girl just leans her neck strangely.

"Spirit... what?" I am. "

(... hmm? Not the Spirit... No, don't you know the Spirit itself?

Reurus leaks a voice of doubt to the girl's reaction. I thought the girl's atmosphere was not human, but spiritual.

(Sarah was on the altar of the Spirit of Fire and talking to Vaniel... but not this one. Is that why you're here?

Is that why you seem unfamiliar with the conversation? I think I have the least knowledge than I can use Comona.

(Because Sarah is the only one who knows the spiritual example... no, you can't think of Sarah like a representative of the spirits? It is also possible that this child is more normal as a spirit.....)

I was hesitant to give a name, even if it was an analogy, but it might be a problem before that. In the first place, how did the girl in front of you show up here? Even if it was to freeze the slime, did it just show up for that?

"Spirits are the creatures that control their attributes...? Once upon a time, there was a great spiritual spirit called the Great Spirit, and it was so amazing that religion could be built... well... in the case of a young lady, I think it was a spiritual spirit of ice or water..."

……

It was a Reurus who tried to explain about the Spirit, but even if I knew the actual Spirit named Sarah, I lacked general knowledge. It would have been a pleasure to have Gilba here, but unfortunately it's separated from Lake Mersena.

"... I'm sorry, I don't know anything about it either. But I'll think of your name as long as it's okay...."

As for Reurus, I'm not leaving this blue girl on an island. I wanted you to come to the abandoned city of Laval, but more than that, you saved my life.

If the girl didn't want to leave this island, she had to give up, but if she wanted to go out at all, she wanted to do it.

"Name... my name..."

The girl looked strange, but she didn't seem to dislike it. For that reason, Reurus tried to think of a name as good as time permitted while roaming the slime.

― ― The slime's 'nucleus' was stupid, like staring at such a revus and a girl.
