Arifureta Shokugyou de Sekai Saikyou (WN)

In the middle of a vast plain, there is a street that stretches straight north. Even when it comes to the streets, being trampled over and over just made nature and weeds bald and the road. There is no such thing as suspension in carriages in this world, so I'm sure the carriage crew going down this road will comfort their own asses as soon as they get to their destination.

There is such a shadow that it explodes at an unlikely speed along an ill-maintained road. There were three figures on top of it pushing the convex path without bitterness with only two wheels on the black-painted body.

Hajime, Yue, Shea. It is sickening down the streets at an unparalleled rate compared to when it was once run in the valley bottom of the Licen Grand Canyon. Eighty kilometers an hour would be out. Since there is nothing to inhibit magic, two magic driven wheels also exert their original specs to the full. The seating order, as usual, is in the form of Yue in Hajime's arms and Shea on his back. Shea's rabbit is stuck in the wind.

The weather is sunny and warm with the sun falling and the wind pressure adjusted by Yue's magic makes it an excellent touring day. In fact, both Yue and Shea had their eyes narrowed in a way that seemed really pleasant, feeling the sunshine and pleasant breeze of pokapoka all over their bodies.

"Ha ha, feel good, yue come on. Wouldn't you like to exchange places on the way home?"

"... no. This is my place."

"Uh, let's swap without saying that - it feels good in the back, doesn't it?

Forcing Yue to exchange seats with a loose voice that Shea has really extended. Hajime replied instead of Yue, looking disgusted when he saw Shea's face loose over his shoulder.

"You know, you can't sit in front of me, can you? I know you're in the way, but it's not. Especially that rabbit. You'll be stuck in the wind."

"Oh, yeah."

"... no, I'm almost asleep"

Apparently, Shea is half a dream dweller for so much comfort. He hangs his head on Hajime's shoulder and hangs his entire weight. Speaking to Yue sounds like half the bedtime.

"Well, at this pace, it's almost a day away. I'm going non-stop, and I'll let you rest while you can."

As Hajime said, Hajime and the others had come as far as a day or so later to the town closest to the northern mountain range, the scope of the survey request undertaken by Will's entire line. We are going to stay in town overnight and start the search tomorrow morning because we will proceed at once without pinching the break and will probably arrive by sundown. The reason for the hurry, of course, is that the more time passes, the lower will the survival rate of a single line. But Yue looks suspicious at the aggressive hajime, even though it is for others sometime.

Hajime returns a bitter laugh to Yue, who looks up at herself with a cute lean neck from within her arms.

"... aggressive?

"Oh, I've never crossed the line alive. That's the bigger thang I feel. From now on, I'm going to wait until the state hates the trouble with the churches. You'd better have more shields, wouldn't you? I don't want to be a decent person."

"... I see"

In fact, I don't know to what extent a shield called Ilwa would work, and although it's more likely to be useless in one way or another, insurance is better. Well, if you can earn it with just a little effort, you shouldn't spare that effort.

"I asked you that the town you're going to is a lakeside town with plenty of water. Because of this, the suburbs of town are the best rice fields on the continent."

"... Love?

"Ooh, I mean rice. Rice. It's my hometown, the staple food of Japan. I haven't eaten since I got here. I don't know if it's the same thing but I'd like to go and try it soon"

"... um, I want some too... what's the name of the town?

Yue, who had a smiling glance at Hajime, who looked away and gave thought to rice dishes, asks Hajime that he hadn't heard the name of the town if he had said so. Hajime, who returned to me hajime, answered slightly louder to delude him when he noticed Yue's glance and seemed a little embarrassed.

It's the lakeside town of Ur.

"Ha, no clue today... Shimizu, where the hell have you been..."

Quietly dropping his shoulder, walking with Tobotobo on the main street of the town of Ur is one of the summoners, teacher, Aiko Hayama. The usual pleasant appearance lurked, and now the atmosphere is gloomy, irritated by anxiety and worry. I feel dimmer than usual without my heart or even the lights on the street that color the front streets.

"Aiko, don't be too distracted. I don't know anything yet. There is a good chance that it will be safe. What if you don't believe me?"

"That's right, Dr. Aicha. Shimizu, even your room didn't look like it was vandalized. There's a good chance he went somewhere on his own. Don't just think about the bad guys."

It was David, the captain of Aiko's dedicated escort, and Yuka Park, the student, who spoke to Aiko, who was not well. There are other knights and students around every time you get used to them. They also uttered words that cared for their loved ones.

Already two weeks and a little after the disappearance of one of my classmates, Shimizu Happy. Aiko and the others tried their best to find fresh water, but the whereabouts could not be known. There were no sightings throughout the town, and use was also made of neighboring towns and villages for sightings, but it was all empty.

Initially it became noisy that we were involved in the incident, but because the fresh water room was not vandalized, because Shimizu himself possessed a vocation with special talent for dark magic called "Dark Magician" and had a high aptitude for other phylogenetic magic, yes, there were many who did not think he would be hit by the gorotzki around it, and now consider it a spontaneous disappearance.

Originally, Shimizu was a big indoor type of person and not very sociable. Neither my classmates, nor any special close friends, were surprised to have joined the Ai Guard. That's why students other than Aiko were already more worried about Aiko, who worried about it and became less energetic every day than about the safety of fresh water. It goes without saying to the knights of the convoy.

By the way, it's been reported to the Kingdom and the Church, and it looks like they're coming to support us by forming a search party. Shimizu is also extremely good as a summoner when it comes to magical talent, so the upper management is not optimistic, as it was during Hajime. We've only got a couple of days before the search party arrives.

Aiko beat herself in the heart to the words of care she was called one after the other. Being involved in a case, whether it's voluntary disappearance or worrying, is no different. But instead of putting it on the table and making the students on the sidelines anxious right now, what are we going to do about it? Still, am I a teacher for these kids! and. Aiko regained the feeling of slapping her cheek with both hands once she took a deep breath.

"Guys, I'm sorry to bother you. That's right. I won't solve all my worries. Shimizu, you are an excellent wizard. I'm sure it's okay. Now, let's do what we can, believe we're safe. Unfortunately, it's dinner tonight! Eat your belly full and get ready for tomorrow!

I know it's impossible, but the students honestly reply to the temperament. The knights looked at the situation with a smile.

Karankkarank

Making that noise, Aiko opened the door to the inn where they were staying. It is the finest lodging in the town of Ur. The name is "Water Fairy Inn". They say it stems from the fact that a group of couples used to stay the fairies that emerged from Lake Urdia. Lake Urdia is the largest lake on the continent near the town of Ur. It is about four times the size of Biwako in Japan.

"The Water Fairy Inn is a restaurant on the ground floor with a wide selection of rice dishes, a specialty of the town of Ur. The interior has decorated heavy tables and bar counters that are calm, discreet but with attention to detail. There was also a chandelier on the ceiling that was not too flashy, adding flowers to the calm air." It was a long-established inn where such words sprang up naturally and made history feel.

Initially, Aiko and the others hoped that they would not settle down if they were too upscale, but it was outwardly impossible to stop the Aiko and the students, who were beginning to be called "messengers of God" or "goddess of abundance", in a normal inn, so after the Knights persuaded them to make a definitive and eye-catching stay in the town of Ur.

Originally, I used to spend time in a room in the Royal Palace, where both my loved ones and my students gradually got used to it, and now, it was a totally relaxing place. For Aiko, who travels east to improve farmland and search for fresh water and returns with tired bodies, the rice dishes taken in this inn were a daily pleasure.

Everyone sits in the VIP seat, which is becoming the deepest dedicated, and pounds their tongues at dinner that day.

"Oh, it's still delicious - I didn't think you could come to another world and eat curry."

"Well, it looks stew... no, there was a white curry?

"No, it's more than that, isn't it? This sauce is great, huh? Isn't Japan losing?

"That's because you've never had a proper bowl of Tendo, right? Don't compare it to a rice bowl in a hoka valve."

"No, with a choice of fried rice. I can't stop this."

Students remain tense every night over rice dishes that are extremely close to Earth's cuisine. Although there are differences in appearance and subtle flavors, the idea of cooking itself is very similar. The abundance of ingredients would be one of the reasons why we are pushing the quality of food in the town of Ur. Not to mention rice, some fish that can be taken at Lake Urdia, mountain vegetables and spices in mountain ranges.

A man with a stunning mustache in his sixties approached me with a sneer, to Aiko, who was biting his temporary happiness with a delicious dish.

"Ladies and gentlemen, how is your meal today? If you need anything, please don't hesitate to let me know."

"Ah, Mr. Owner"

It was Foss Sero, the owner of this "Water Fairy Inn", who spoke to Aiko. He has soothing stretched spine, gently narrowed eyes, and all-back gray-haired hair. The calm atmosphere of the inn suits him well.

"No, it's still very tasty today. It's healing every day."

"It worked," replied Aiko, smiling nicely on behalf of him, and Foss smiled happily. But in the next moment, I clouded that look with regret. It's an expression that doesn't look familiar to Foss, who smiles calmly at all times. Something happened and everyone stopped eating and paid attention to Foss.

"Actually, I'm very sorry… dishes with spices are only available today"

"What!? Does that mean I can't eat this nil cicil (different world version of curry) anymore?

Curry inquired as Yuka Park, his favorite, was shocked.

"Yes, I'm sorry. How many minutes have the ingredients run out... I usually keep stock so this doesn't happen... the North Mountains have been disturbing for the past month or so, so there has been a drastic decrease in what I go to collect. Even the other day, a line of high-ranking adventurers who came to investigate went missing, and more and more people went to collect them. We don't know when we're going to arrive next."

"Um... what exactly is disturbing?

"You know, you saw a bunch of demons in everything... the North Mountains are a relatively safe place if you don't cross the mountains. There seems to be a powerful demon every time you cross one mountain, but you won't come all the way here until you cross the mountain. But you saw a bunch of demons across the mountain that couldn't have had some people."

"That's worrying..."

Aiko frowns. Everyone else looked at each other looking slightly sunk. Foss continued the conversation in a bright tone to rejuvenate the atmosphere of the place when he gave an sorry look, "You weren't talking about it during the meal.

"But maybe the anomaly will fit in soon enough."

"What do you mean?

"Actually, a new guest arrived at the accommodation just at sunset today, but they're going to the North Mountains to search for the adventurers ahead of them for anything. Sounds like a request for nomination for Furen's Guild Branch Manager, and you seem to be quite capable. Maybe they'll find out what caused the anomaly."

Aiko doesn't seem to be coming with a pin, but David and the knights of the escort, who were dining with him, were uniformly "ho," half impressed, half interested, half voiced. When it comes to Furen's branch manager, he is also the most senior class executive in the entire guild. Being asked to nominate that branch manager should be a strong man who is not quite there. As for those who go through the same battle, they are inquisitive. The knights' heads were listed with famous "Golden" class adventurers.

Aiko and David began to hear voices from the stairs leading upstairs as they looked strange at the knights' blurring. It's the voice of a man and the voice of two girls. Somehow one of the girls is complaining about a man. It was Foss who reacted to that.

"Oh, if you rumor. It's them. Knights, they're leaving here tomorrow morning, so I was wondering if we could talk about it now."

"Right, okay. But a much younger voice." Was there such a young man in Kim?

David and the knights looked at the famous "Kim" class listed in their brains slightly bewildered as they did not have the same young voice owner they were hearing now.

In doing so, the three men and women approach each other as they talk.

The seats with Aiko are the deepest seats surrounded by walls on the three sides, as well as a place where you can see the entire store. For once, you can also make it a private room by pulling a curtain. Only one line of Aiko stands out, because Aiko became even more prominent when she became known as the "goddess of abundance", often closing the curtains during meals. Even today, the curtain is closed without leaking into the example.

I heard the noisy conversation between young men and women over the curtain.

"How many times do I have to tell you? Please don't leave me alone to create a world between you and Yue. It's really very vain, that. Are you listening?" Mr. Hajime. "

"I'm listening, I'm listening. If you don't want to see it, you can make it a separate room."

"Mm-hmm! Did you hear that? Yue." Hajime says something cold. "

"..." Hajime... meh!

"Heck."

To the content of that conversation, and to the name the girl's voice calls, Aiko's heart jumps in an instant. What are they like now? What did you call the boy? Doesn't the boy's voice resemble that boy's voice? The doubt fills Aiko's brain in an instant, staring at the curtain as though she were trying to pierce it with only her gaze, stiff as it was in a gold bondage.

That was the same for Yuka Park and the other students beside him. Behind their brains, a certain boy emerges, disappearing to the bottom of Nara about four months ago. A boy who made his classmates strongly recognize something called "death in another world," a boy who is the backbone of the memories he wants to erase, a boy who stood out, for better or worse.

Foss and the knights speak with a surprising gaze to their beloved children and students who look unusual, but do not react as one. As the knights looked at each other to see what the hell was going on, Aiko gave Potsuri and his name zero.

"... Nagumo?

With his own voice unconsciously, his body, which was rigid to the impossible, regains its freedom. Aiko stood up as she kicked down the chair and opened up with momentum pulling the curtain away as she was about to fall.

Shah!!

Three boys and girls unwittingly stop at the sound of the curtains being pulled that sounded so loud outside.

Aiko shouted, unable to afford to check on her opponent. Give me the name of your precious goddaughter.

"Nagumo!

"Ah?......................................................................................................... Doctor?

In front of Aiko was a grey-haired boy with an eyelid that opened one eye wide and revealed amazement. It's a very different look from the Nagumo Hajime in my memory. The atmosphere is very different as well as the appearance. Aiko's knowing Nagumo Hajime was a dear boy of a serene character who was sometimes somewhere bo. In fact, it is Aiko's secret that she recognized that bitter laughter suits her best. But the boy in front of him wraps his eyes as sharp as a hawk and a sharp atmosphere somewhere near him. If it was too different from my memory and I normally just slipped away in town, I'm sure I wouldn't have thought of the boy in front of me as a Nagumo Hajime.

But if you look closely, your face and voice match those of your memory. And most importantly... what did the boy in front of you call himself? Yes, "Doctor." Aiko was convinced. The appearance and atmosphere have changed dramatically, but the boy in front of him says he is indeed his godson, Nagumo Hajime!

"Nagumo... I knew it was Nagumo, right? Live... really live..."

"No, it's a different person. Bye."

"To?"

A miraculous reunion with a godchild I thought was dead. Touched, did you loosen your tear glands, Aiko, who will tear eyes. I'm really glad you're safe to say where you've been and what the hell happened, even though there are mountains of things to say that are speechless. Still, it was utterly unexpected words that came back to my beloved child desperately trying to spin the word.

Unexpectedly a dumb voice, Aiko pulls in tears as well. When he glanced at the hajime, which began to walk towards Stasta and the exit of the inn, he regained his sanity haha and hurriedly grabbed the chase cuff.

"Wait a minute! Nagumo, isn't it? You called me a teacher, didn't you? Why, I can't believe you're wrong."

"No, you heard wrong. That's... yes, it means" ticklish "in dialect. Yeah."

"That's so rude! I mean, there can't be such a dialect. How can you be deluded? And that outfit... what happened? What are you doing here? Why didn't you come back to everyone immediately? Nagumo! Answer me! The teacher won't be deluded!

Aiko's anger echoes in the restaurant. Some of the guests also said to the rumor that "The Goddess of Abundance" was grabbing by a man and yelling, "i.e., there is a man in the Goddess!?" and his eyes shine with curiosity along with delightful mistakes. Students and escort knights also came from behind.

The students see Hajime and have a stunned look at him as unbelievable. That would be where the very fact of being alive is half, and the appearance and atmospheric transformation is half. But I didn't know what to do, and I just stopped staring at Aiko and Hajime.

Hajime, on the other hand, seemed calm when it came to appearing, but inside he was attacked by petite panics. I never dreamed of seeing Aiko or her classmates again by chance in a town that was brought in at the request of the Alliance Branch Manager I met by chance.

It was such a sudden event that I grumbled "Doctor" and so on, and I made a delusion that I thought "Wow, not even myself". Aiko's furious question-attack explores life cards in her heart, but only comes out with cards that aren't too busy saying, "Run away," "Push through with the wrong people," "Become a suspicious foreigner," "Grab Aiko." Especially the last one didn't make sense.

And that's where I saved Hajime, a relying partner girl. Of course, it is the blood-sucking princess, not the character's rabbit. Yue forcefully shook off Aiko's hand grabbing Hajime's arm as she walked over beside Tsukatsuka, Hajime and Aiko. At that time, the escort knights are slightly murdered.

"... Away, Hajime is in trouble"

"Hey, what's up, you? Now the teacher has an important conversation with Nagumo..."

"... then calm down a little bit"

Aiko is slightly frightened by the beautiful girl who stares at herself with cold eyes. There is no big difference between the two heights. Normally, it would look like a fight between Chimiko. However, in Yue, which wraps up a luscious atmosphere against the appearance with Aiko, who is always seen below her real age, it really looks like a schematic of a child (Aiko) pissed off by an adult (Yue). In fact, it was Yue who was paying attention, realizing that she was in a runaway mood for her words, blushing her cheeks, gently distancing herself from the hajime, and slowly correcting her spine in an attempt to show her adult majesty... she seemed like a child stretched out.

"Excuse me, I'm disturbed. Again, Nagumo, isn't it?

Now Aiko re-asks Hajime with a quiet, but confident voice, looking straight at her. Seeing such a loving child, Hajime affirmed with a deep sigh when he scratched his head galloping, convinced that he would come after him anywhere more deluded than he was convinced at any rate.

"Oh. Long time no see, Doctor"

"I knew it was you, Nagumo... you were alive..."

Hajime glanced at Aiko, who was once again in tears, without looking particularly emotional.

"Well. There's been a lot going on, but I managed to survive."

"Good. I'm so glad."

A glance at Aiko, who seemed speechless, Hajime walked over to the nearby table and stayed in his seat. Look at that, Yue and Shea take their seats too. Although Shea was puzzled. Aiko Kyotong for Hajime's sudden actions. Hajime seems to be completely back on track and invites Foss, who is standing behind the students and watching what happens, not knowing what's going on around him.

"Uh, Mr. Hajime. Is that okay? You know him, don't you? Maybe... of the original world..."

"It doesn't matter. I was surprised when he suddenly appeared on the boulder, but, well, that's all. I was originally here for dinner, and let's just order. Seriously, I was looking forward to it. You know what? Curry here... Don't you see? There's a spicy meal called Nilcisil. I'd love it if it tasted the way I imagined..."

"... then I'll do it too. I want to know what Hajime likes to taste like."

"Ah, the insignificant appeal in that place...... Mr. Boulder Yue. That's why I'll do that, too. Clerk, come on, order. Well, su."

At first, Shea, who had fallen asleep while watching Aiko flicker, also switched consciousness to see if Hajime would say so, and started ordering from Foss, who stopped by with a troubled grin.

But naturally, I waited there, but it would take. Hajime started ordering so naturally that nothing happened per table that Aiko, who was stunned again, breathed back and approached the table of Tsukatsuka and Hajime, said, "Doctor, I'm angry!," he tapped the table pessimistically with a truly palpable look.

"Nagumo, I haven't finished talking to you yet. What, are you ordering it very naturally? By and large, who are these women?

Aiko's statement represented the feelings of everyone on the spot, so the knights, who finally perceived Hajime to be the godson of his beloved son, who heard him die four months ago, and the students who refrain behind his beloved son, all nodded uniformly, "Yeah, yeah," and waited for Hajime's answer.

Hajime frowned a little troublesome, but unless he answered anyway, Aiko showed her ability to behave in advance and ate down, thinking she would not be able to calm down and eat, and she had no choice but to return her gaze to Aiko.

"I've been here more than a day non-stop because of the request. I'm starving, let me eat as carefully as I can. And these guys..."

When Hajime turned his gaze to Yue and Shea, the two introduced themselves shocking to Aiko before Hajime spoke.

"... yue"

It's Shea.

"Hajime Woman" "Hajime Woman!

"Oh, woman?

Aiko said, "Huh? What?" alternates Hajime with the two beautiful girls. He hasn't been able to process the information properly. The students behind them are also looking at each other as confused. No, the boy student says, "No way!" I look at Yue and Shea busily alternating with the look I said. Gradually, while dyeing the stranger's face red to its beauty.

"Hey, Yue, anyway, Shea. You're not, are you?

"That's it! It's terrible, Mr. Hajime. Keep my first kiss away from me!

"No, how long are you pulling it? Is that Kiku: Nagumo? '... what is it, Doctor?

Shea's statement that she "took the first kiss" finally caught up with the information processing, making Aiko's voice a little lower. In Aiko's head, the sight of Hajime laughing high with two beautiful girls in his hands seemed to be regenerating. The expression tells the story of it.

Make your face bright red, Aiko blocking Hajime's words. The face was full of determination to get students running delinquently back on track at all costs. And an oversized thunder called "The Wrath of the Teacher" falls into the finest lodging in the town of Ur.

"I took a girl's first kiss. I don't care about quotes, fu, or two strands! You didn't come home right away because you were playing! If so...... I won't forgive you! Yeah, the teacher will never forgive you! It's a sermon! Fix it there, Nagumo!

Hajime exhaled a deep, deep sigh of trouble with his beloved son, who barked properly, on his ass.
