Arifureta Shokugyou de Sekai Saikyou (WN)

The place was a cemetery outside a certain town, with its tranquillity that seemed detached from the outside world. A short distance away you can see the main hall of the temple, with a regular line of tombstones around it.

In addition to being such a holiday, there was a rare but young girl figure in a graveyard idle in a place pattern. I stand alone in a potpound. He stares at the family name engraved on the tombstone as if he was putting some thought into it without being slightly mobile, fluffing his hair stretched up to his back in a breeze.

And there, with the heavy footsteps of slightness, a wild voice sounded breaking the stillness.

"Ooh, bells. That's an odd encounter. Were you here too?"

"Ryutaro-kun!

The girl looked back in amazement - to the bell, Ryutaro, who came as he treaded the gravel path of the cemetery, greeted him with a truly cheerful greeting with one hand up "Yikes".

"Ryutaro-kun. Why are you here… for only one purpose"

"Well, it's a gathering day for all of us.... somehow. If we hadn't come here, no one would have."

"I'm not. For once, I had something to offer you before I came."

"Hmm? Oh, could it be Kaori and Shizuku?

"I guess."

Before the grave, indeed, a little more flowers were adorned. Besides what the bell brought, I can see that it was decorated earlier. To Ryutaro's guess, he opened his mouth with a bitter laugh as the bell indicated his consent.

"... there's nothing here that belongs to Eri."

That said, the bell glanced back at the headstone. There, it is inscribed "Nakamura House". Yes, this is the tomb of Eri Nakamura's family, the bell's best friend who ended up in another world. Of course, Eri blew herself up in [the Divine Realm], so there's nothing left but the remains. There is no proof that Eri will sleep here.

Still, if I tried to mourn my own unstoppable madness and my best friend who did evil because I thought it, my feet naturally turned to this place. This place was visited only once after returning from different worlds. After a year, on this day when members with a peculiar experience gather, before the promised time, neither the bell nor Ryutaro showed in particular… the feeling seemed one, including Kaori and Shizuku, who would have come before the bell.

For a while, they were speechless and just kept staring quietly at the headstone. On the other side of it, thinking of what was once Eri.

How long he had been doing that, eventually, Uh-huh. A bell stretched out his back asked Ryutaro with a soothing smile as he had organized himself into his thoughts.

"Speaking of which, today's gathering, I knew you weren't coming, did you?

"Oh. Especially since we haven't heard about opening the gates from Nagumo. I would not participate. Well, because we had a special class for us, we went to Tortoise until we dropped out of high school to make amends. I can't believe you're back for a year-long celebration, even if you're here."

"Right. Say," I don't deserve that. "

Ryutaro and the bell laughing bitterly at each other.

As the saying goes, Gwanghui is currently in Tortoise. Once he returned with Hajime and the others, he couldn't lead a normal high school life. Not because someone said something to me, but because my own heart refused to live a student life even if guilt, the will to make amends, even for a year or two.

The threat of demons has not diminished even with the disappearance of Echtorjee, who was playing war games on people. Some of the demons that came out of [the Divine Realm] must have succeeded in escaping. Gwanghui wanted to eliminate that kind of threat at all and make it one of atonement.

Naturally, it is known throughout Tortoise that Hikaru, who should have been summoned as a brave man, was not there at the time of the showdown, and that Hikaru had spoken publicly himself, and that Hikaru was on the enemy's side. Therefore, in that world, there is no place for glory.

But still, it seems that Hikaru is quietly traveling east to help someone as an adventurer.

"Hmm, it's still too late, but what about the bell?

"Mm-hmm. I'm not thinking about it in particular. Hang around appropriately or rendezvous with the Kaolins... no, you don't. It's impossible to be normal in that pink air. Absolutely, tiring."

"Ah, yeah. That's right. Then kill the right amount of time. Together"

"Yeah. Shall we share a recap scene with our readers and talk a lot about it"

……

While the bell received a little radio wave, the two stared at the tombstone one last time and left the scene behind.

The two of them, who let the conversation play while walking appropriately, eventually reached a tight park. Sit back on the bench with nature without attempting to communicate your intentions in particular. So, somehow I saw a kid playing in the park.

"Ah, it's peace."

"Oh, come on, what a voice. Grandma."

"Terrible. You're still a delicacy-free brain muscle, not at all. Ryutaro, what do you think when you get back here? Peace. Until a year ago, it's a little hard to believe that you were in a fight where it wasn't weird to die."

"... well. I haven't been that busy since I got back here, so I wasn't around at first. Sure, I think it's been calming down a lot lately. That sort of thing."

"That's right."

A year before Hajime created a gate connecting the otherworlds Tortoise and Earth, and the surviving classmates stepped on their homeland again.

Standing down on the roof of the school, they looked around and cheered the moon and night. Some of them cried with emotion and comfort, and it was a tough situation inside.

In the meantime, is it possible to fulfill and open again the gate to the otherworldly tortoise? It was a hajime that consumed enormous magic, but I could confirm that magic and artifacts could be used, at least on Earth, if I whipped it right into my tired body while also using the Demonic Crystal Stone I had stocked.

It was already amazing to hear about it and to know that it was also possible to meet again the close people who could have made it to the other world. All my classmates attacked Hajime, so much so that I dared to raise my midnight torso.

Later, the settled classmates were each on their way home delighted with each other's survival and return. once upon a time, what was going on with the house and family...... not that I had no anxiety, but nevertheless, we all drove off on our way to school where we all uniformly felt even nostalgic in light footsteps.

... Olympians are also at bright blue superspeeds. "Come on, stop jumping on the roof!" Needless to say, Mr. Ponité's anger echoed with some difficulty.

Incidentally, how to explain to the family and others what happened during the time of the disappearance was discussed during the month following the showdown, and the conclusion was that "we will be honest and talk as we are".

Even if you tell a realistic lie, I'm sure the discrepancies and suspicions will be uncovered immediately if the police and others can look into it. It is easy to imagine how much the daytime mass disappearance has been the subject of public discussion and the police were investigating it with their main hips. There's no way a police officer like that can't spot a proper lie. Well, some students didn't come back. There is no way to do half of it.

Or so, it seems that what passes with amnesia is how it hides something, more than the police, the media won't let it go. The students who disappeared in mass numbers have been stubbornly silent for a blank period of time... they are the favorite of the media. I'll also tell you about the students who won't return and make a huge fuss about something that never happens.

Then it would be Better to provide that kind of information here, like the surroundings unintentionally pull a dong, or try to keep your pity sentiments at ease.

Namely:

- I was fighting demons and evil gods in a fantastic world of swords and magic!

and.

It is, of course, Hajime's proposal. You don't tell one lie at a time, so you just have to be grand no matter how much you're pursued. Even classmates who aren't as fat as Hajime don't have to put in any effort. Whatever you say, "Believe it or not, it's up to you."

And when something goes wrong with those who pursue it deeply, a little bit with Yue's magic, "What were you doing?"

It should be noted that "what were you doing?" It wasn't just the media of MAX or people in the bureau or the police who were too sharp about the status of the obsession. There can be suspicious religious-looking organizations, very suspicious people like government officials, or disillusioned, suspicious - some occult groups.

On the back where the majority of my classmates indulge in long time potatoes at home or are hitting on TV and the internet, the Hajimes (+ the shadowy ones) were having this conversation with people who seem to live on the back of the planet like that...... that's another story.

"It was really, really hard in the beginning. Especially if you were persistent with people in the press."

"Oh, how many times did you get a call asking you to appear on a TV special? When you asked me about Eri and the Cypress Mountains," Why did you just come back? "or" Don't you feel responsible? "I really thought I'd kick your ass."

"That's not it. Nakano and Saito usually beat up reporters and said, 'Again, something's wrong with your mind!? You wrote' em all you wanted."

The reporter was asking about Delicacy.

Remembering the great waves of the world at the time, Bell and Ryutaro laugh bitterly at each other. At the time, I had visited not only the press and the police, but even a little acquaintance, and I had been prying about what was really going on.

In particular, Cypress Mountain, Kondo and Shimizu's family ate down to the end.

The truth was unnecessarily conveyed to their families, who became the ones who did not return. It was Aiko and Hajime who gave the explanation. The truth is that Hajime accompanied him forcefully because Aiko tried to go talk to him alone, but if he were to tell the truth anyway, he could not avoid the topic of Hajime, and more importantly, Hajime did not intend to put Aiko on the arrow about the Cypress Mountains, nor did he intend to be annoyed.

Naturally, after making people believe in magic while showing stories about different worlds, Cypress Mountains' family tried to curse and murmur, and in some cases even violence, to Aiko and Hajime in a blatant manner...

Hajime, the person who punched the bullet in his ass, tried to spoil Aiko from a sense of responsibility he could not take home, or be made to revamp, bounced the exhaustion back from the front with a chilled look.

Even if their families were good, no matter how much they looked forward to the return of their children, such a thing would not erase themselves or the fact that they were dearly stripped of their fangs. Just as a parent's feelings have nothing to do with what a child did or the circumstances of a hazy thing, it's not something they learned, not even as a hazy thing, or the mood of an enemy parent.

- I have no regrets for what I did. I don't even think it's bad. Therefore, I do not apologize. I don't care what you think of me, but if you're going to get your hands on me in this matter, be prepared.

This is what Hajime told the other family. The more they say you have the talent of a fan, the more subtle deceptive. For a hajime who is good at speaking, a straightforward word that can be described as clumsy. Clearly, I just think I'm turning my nerves upside down.

But to my beloved child who was beside me, I understood that was the utmost sincerity and readiness for Hajime. I won't delude you, and if the hatred you buy is about reaching out to demons within you, your determination to relate and eliminate them everywhere.

As a result, the house of Cypress Mountain ran wild to retaliate against Hajime and his own hands broke his heart, and the other houses kept silence knowing the likeness of such a Cypress Mountain family. From the side, what a poor aftertaste result, but Hajime doesn't care at all.

Now, including all that commotion, the furious press matches that were being played about the returnees... they calmed down one day to the border, as if the tide were catching. That was as if nothing had happened more softly than unnaturally.

Nagumo, you guys did something.

"I guess. Yue and his family registration and surrounding perceptions cleared the area perfectly. At last, it's no surprise that we're doing something about public awareness. Well, Dr. Ai was standing on the arrow because she was the only adult. It can't be that Nagumo left behind."

Actually, you could be right. It goes without saying who said the most horrible things about the world: "When magic is built into the information society… the world is a little bit worse."

"Ma, it was tough, but I guess the luck of being unhappy was that no one was rejected by their family. Both my father and mother, and my helper (Umeko) tried to take me to the hospital with a sad face shortly after explaining the situation, but when I actually showed the magic and explained it many times, they managed to accept it."

"Oh, so are we. However, in my case, I showed the model warwolf... but I panicked. Fukuro faints, his uncle takes the bat out and wields it in a ruinous way, his sister leaks, the dog he has barks like crazy, and his neighbor Fujii's grandfather scatters fire extinguishers as he says' In War '..."

"My last grandfather doesn't make sense, but mostly because Ryutaro-kun deserves it, right? Instead, I respect your father, whose son suddenly turned into a werewolf, for trying to stand up to him with a bat."

"It's a statute of limitations, a statute of limitations," Ryutaro said shyly out of sight in the eyes of a heartbroken bell. Incidentally, Ryutaro, who thought he couldn't get things sorted out on his own, stunned his entire family and neighboring Fujii's grandfather for now, unfortunately showing off Warwolf's instant legs and intruding into the house of Gwanghui, who was also explaining the situation to his family.

Suddenly a vicious werewolf man from the fantasy world jumped in, his glowing father passed out, his mother took out a knife and went wild, and Glowing's sister leaked. The glow of wondering who the werewolf was and what its purpose was to seek help was to take control of her mother. I put my sister to sleep.

And while poking Ryutaro, sighing, because of it, and just right, he held a joint family meeting with the family of the distracted Ryutaro, and managed to gain understanding from both families.

Incidentally, Shizukunosuki's house is also receiving urgent contact from the Shirazaki family. At that time, Kaori's first voice, full of confusion from her parents, was' Shizuku! I knew you were home, too, good for you! By the way, my daughter is an angel, what do you know!? 'Something called. I guess I showed you Apostolic Mode...... normally if you ask, you only sound like a parent idiot who has suddenly boasted of his daughter in the middle of the night.

Beyond the phone, he said, "Ugh, Dad! Don't make embarrassing calls!" The voice of Kaori and, "Because Kaori can't. Oh no, angels are so cute! Shizuku quietly put the receiver down when he heard the conversation between the parent and the child. Inside, he said," I'm busy explaining, too, Boquete! "and spit evil.

In that way, the classmates who made the return came to deal with the press and the like in a family-friendly manner, with varying degrees of time and excessive tortuosity, eventually believing in stories about different worlds.

Originally, because of the circumstances that led to the formation of a family association to follow the whereabouts of the classmates who disappeared in the group, it is easy to know that if you get in touch with other families, not only the children of the family, but also the other children have the same experience as the same incredible forces. And somehow, all my classmates were accepted by my family.

But not everything is the same as before...

"Is that it, Belle? And the hillside? What are you doing here?

"Oh, it's true. Belle, it's been a while ~! I mean, maybe a date!?

"Huh? Liar!? With the hillside!? Bell, did they even blackmail you!?

Two bells and Ryutaro, who were talking on the park bench, were suddenly called out, fornicating. Look, I had a friend there who was a former classmate. Those are the three girls who were taking lunch breaks elsewhere that day but were not caught in the summons and whose bells were close enough for them.

The three seemed to have been stirred up by a little curiosity about their relationship and a lot of vigilance about Ryutaro when they saw the bell spending the holidays alone with Ryutaro, but if they answered that they planned to rendezvous with everyone else after this and that it was a waste of time until then, they would have a disappointing and hospitable look.

Talk to them appropriately about the recent situation and contact them again ~ and break up with them by exchanging the prescribed lines.

"As always, you have a lot of communal power"

"Well."

A bell that receives Ryutaro's praiseworthy intercourse with his shoulders flaunted, neither in retreat nor in humility. After all, after that showdown with Eri, the bell seems to be changing dramatically in spirit and growing.

Mass disappearances - the fact was having a significant impact on fewer, no, rather, students in the same school. There was such an attitude and atmosphere that he didn't want to get too involved, like touching the swelling, or, conversely, lacking delicacy in curiosity.

It also showed in the form of voices of anxiety raised by a large number of families when they returned to go to school again.

For a year, I've been speechless and I don't know where or what I was doing or what they were doing. They just talk like they're unrealistic. Besides, there are some students who didn't come home...... fulfill it and get those inexperienced kids back to school, is the kid okay?

As a result, despite the return of the parties, the truth of the case remained unclarified and there were some students who remained missing, and the administration finally moved.

Hajime and the others have prepared a dedicated curriculum to reduce exposure to public curiosity, restore a year's academic delay, and at the same time help the returnees return to a smooth student life in the form of mental health professionals on campus… We have prepared a special segregation class to avoid troublesome pre-construction situations.

To this end, nowadays, the top floor of the school building, rather than the original classroom, which was also an unused room at the end, has become a fixed class for Hajime and the others until graduation.

In fact, the story of the school itself apart... was up quite strongly... someone's opinion of "transfer or trouble" pushed it through with a strange phenomenon. Soon, very naturally. As unnatural as...

Anyway, when physical distances are made that way, naturally, the distance between the returnees and those in another class who were friends until before the summons is extended, so many of them became a matter of re-establishing friendship… Among other things, the bell is building a more intimate relationship with a traditional friend, not unlike the one it once was.

So much so that if you stumble upon a holiday like this, you can speak up aggressively. If you do something weird to the bell, it's just jaw-dropping, and so much so that the serious glance in a woman can be tapped by Ryutaro.

"Ha, not at all, you're a guy... Except for Nagumo, the most unusual thing that went to the other world, I'm sure, is the bell. Even for a moment, it's a pleasure to have your boyfriend see you."

"Pfft. You will, you will. I can't believe you suspected me of a relationship with such a beautiful woman, you happy Ryutaro-kun!"

……

"... hey, now tell me why you missed your eye at the beauty. If you disagree with my words, let me ask you something. Yeah?"

Taniguchi bell. A girl who stopped sausage and grew to look much like an adult from the long stretched hair and wrapping atmosphere. I'm just sad...... I haven't grown a millimeter tall. And the chest again...... No matter how you look at it, it's hard to say beautiful. It just would be a beautiful girl. Probably, I'm sure.

Ryutaro raised his hands and posed as a surrender to a bell that looked angry at his attitude. And he opened his mouth as far away from his gaze as he could, showing a lighting bare gesture that made him confused as to what to do and what to do with the bell that revealed his pungent displeasure.

"No, well, what... you're attractive enough, huh? No, really."

"Thank you very much for following up like I put on it. Well, anyway, I'm not a super pretty girl like you guys."

The bell "kegs," pointing his lips in a mess somewhere. but I accidentally decided to leak a dumb voice into words in a surprisingly serious voice that arrived shortly afterwards.

"... it's not a follow up. The bell is a good woman. You can't lose to anyone."

"To?"

Unexpectedly, if I turned my gaze toward Ryutaro, Ryutaro, who should have pointed that way until just now, was pouring a straight gaze into the bell. A small, heart bouncing sound echoes inside the body. I can see my neck muscles, my face, getting hot.

Now the bell turned that way better. Somehow, words don't come out. I just spitefully leaked my own unintelligible voice called "heh, heh".

An air of strange tension that I can't say, the bell has never experienced much. We were both silent and only the sound of leaf rubbing in the wind came into our ears quickly and clearly.

Chirali and if the bell peeks sideways at Ryutaro, Ryutaro is terribly nervous, then something is grinding with a very serious look. The bell tension meter also keeps going up.

Eventually, Ryutaro opened his mouth with a quiet voice like he was ready.

"After I graduated from high school..."

"Heh!? Oh, yeah......"

"I'm going to Tortoise again."

"That... doesn't that mean we're going to play, Nagumo, to suit you guys?

"Oh. In the other world, I'm going to live."

……

The bell felt that Ryutaro could see why he had made that decision. We spent a lot of time together this past year, and we talked a lot about it, and I thought we would.

"I think I'm helping Hikaru, and I think I'm helping the guy in trouble. With all that power, I can't do Lehman over here now."

"Didn't you even think of a way to be a police officer for once?

"Well. But after all, I think the world over there suits me better."

"Oh well."

Apparently, in earnest, Ryutaro has set the way for the future. The bell felt a little lonely, feeling somewhat left behind.

In contrast to such a bell, Ryutaro rose broadly, turning to the front of the bell and kneeling one knee. Big Ryutaro schematic looking up at himself. Now it's like...

The temperature of the bell rises. Ryutaro's, his heart bounces on his serious expression.

"Ryu, Ryutaro..."

What are you doing? And it was a bell I tried to speak to, but it was faster for Ryutaro to give the length of his thoughts in words.

"Bell. Why don't you follow me?

"Well, it's, uh, partying sometimes..."

"That's not true. You know that, don't you? All I'm saying is," For the rest of my life. "

"Huh..."

The bell breathed. That's exactly, a confession of love. I just took the first, more serious confession of my life. Ryutaro spins more words into a bell whose voice is clogged and can't say anything about the loud emotional twist that gushes.

"I like the bell thing. Choose a future with me over a future in this world. It won't be peaceful, but I'll do everything I can to take care of it. Together, let's go. Ever."

Inside, he said, "It's too straight!" Or, "Even though I cut it off, I was temporarily in love with Mr. Yue, and the little woman is all for the better!? You lolicon!" or "I don't know what you're talking about, brain muscle, saying you like it and fighting with me in another world!" and many other bells that were arraying cursing murmurs with rough hearts...

If you're aware, naturally...

"... yeah. Fine."

And I was responding. I was surprised myself, and then the words came out. That's how I become aware.

"I'm surprised myself, but I, too, seem to like Ryutaro-kun a lot"

The bell's face is already ripe with apples. The time I ran through in different worlds, a year after my return, what I had accumulated with Ryutaro seemed bigger than the bell realized.

Thus, for the first time in my life, Ryutaro received a word of acceptance and a "like" from a girl...

- Whoa, whoa, whoa.

And roared grandly. Kids who were playing a little far away shake their bodies and look at Ryutaro.

"Hey, it's annoying, Ryutaro! The little ones look like the villagers who ran into the orga!

"Hahaha, can anything be a model orga! It's a special service now!

"You don't have to! A monster appears in the middle of the day park! This evening's newspaper is going to tear me apart! I mean, how happy are you? Too tense!

"You must be delighted to decide! She's my first girlfriend in my life! That's a bell, too! Excellent!"

"Ugh, bukah."

Then for a while there was the happiest cheer of the brain muscles roaring in the small park, shy of it, but the sound of a bell clamoring in a way that couldn't hide the pleasant atmosphere.
