Different worlds of the last heaven and knights of the fist.
2. Welcome to the Other World
".................. ah?
A badly missed voice was leaking from the mouth of the half-opened drift guard. I can't help it.
I should have been on the T-shaped road in the residential area.
That's the meadow as far as I can see. It is illuminated by the blue and white moonlight and extends to the horizon.
I also see thin trees to the point of being bumpy and sorry, but some are basically just waves of grass. knee-length them fill the earth and remain washed by the wind.
"... No,...,... Huh?
From the horizon up, blue black. There is no doubt that time is night.
So where is the place? Was there a place like this near the residential area? I know that neighborhood very well. I don't even have to think about it.
- Left, right, as far as a hundred and eighty degrees is concerned, there is a sea of blue and white grass.
Confirm the phone as it remains in your hand. The shopping bag was gone, but I don't care about that now.
The date displayed on the LCD screen, no abnormalities over time. But only radio waves are out of range.
And the moonlight is dazzling. Then the blue and white light reflected on the LCD, and I saw...
Blue......, moonlight?
Back at school, I remember the moon wasn't out and the residential neighborhood felt lonely. I wondered if the moon had come out now, and Lifeguard looked up at the night sky.
――――――――
Out of the question.
The moon. A very huge moon, covering the sky.
No. It's just not on a scale of huge...... etc. The size I wonder if you are even contending with the darkness of the night sky and hegemony. The magnitude I fear will soon clash to the surface. It fills nearly 40% of the night sky.
to where thoughts have completely stopped,
"Um, what are you doing?
I heard my voice lower. Girl's voice.
Rather than being called, he just responds to his voice, and the drift shield looks back.
One girl stood in the meadow.
I don't know the exact color because of the moonlight that is so blue and bright, but long hair that would probably be chestnut. Back in the year, it looked about the same as drift protection. An understated atmosphere, even with plain girls? Is this also a piece, or is he wearing clothes with a non-decorative and qualitative design with a single top and skirt? Probably everyday.
Perhaps, I guess, the expression goes on because the girl dresses too realistically apart.
It was like a medieval peasant outfit, in history and art textbooks.
"... Um...?
You wondered who you were staring at in silence, the color of vigilance mixed with the girl's voice.
The impatient shield spoke out without a second thought.
"Become what?"
"What?"
- Calm down. Calm down, analyze the situation. The courage to maintain the ordinary mind cultivated with karate should not be in vain in this phase.
When you find yourself in a situation you don't understand, think first of all about what you can do rather than try to take it off. It was something I learned in the dojo I have been attending since I was a child.
"No, uh, I think I'm lost... where am I?
"... at this hour, is it? This is the Sandrian Plains. There's a street right there. Instead, let's get out on the street. There's Cobria here, and it's dangerous."
My normal mind was about to disintegrate lightly.
I'm not sure what it is. Weren't the horizontal letters mixed up?
Girl outfit. Horizontal letters.
I remember watching it on a TV occult show before. When I realized it, I was traveling an unlikely long distance or something like that. It was wrapped in fog and moved seven thousand kilometers away in an instant, etc.
Reflux protection is not better if you don't believe in spirits or paranormal kinds at all. I think I have romance. But I just never experienced it myself.
"... uh, anyway. It's dangerous, and we even went out to the streets there -"
So, there was a mix of different sounds blocking the girl's voice.
Gasping and the sound of something whimpering. Key keys and a voice that something utters.
"... ahhh"
The girl's complexion turns pale. Show yourself by pulling the grass apart, 'Sole'.
――――
It's not just the girl. He said. The driftshield became aware that his body temperature had dropped.
Its body length is about forty centimeters. The body hair is brown close to black, arguably a small animal.
But that's where the unusual comes from. Clumsy but bipedal, with key keys and a cursory, but not resembling a human, large ripped mouth with a grinning look, and two gully eyes large enough to occupy the upper half of his face.
Just one word, 'creepy'. He was the only creature I could describe as so.
"I knew it... Cobria..."
It's going to disappear, the girl's frightened voice.
I've never even heard of a creature with a name like Cobria.
Although I have had a rare pet lately, I hear a lot of people throw it away without being able to take care of it. Lifeguarding, at least, didn't want to try to keep such a creepy creature.
What is this creature? I'm not sure about that, but now I know for sure. What is its presence, called Cobria, about to do? Too big a ripped mouth shows, a chilly grin on your spine. Surprisingly grown sharp fangs peeking from it.
Cobria turns to the girl.
"Yes, ya-"
That was the signal.
Cobria jumped at the girl with a delightful and evil grin. It's like a ball that draws parabolas.
For a moment, the ground exploded.
A kicked earth of drift protection scatters waves of grass. At that one-foot step, the drift protection zeroed the distance from Cobria, which should have been approximately four meters away.
Continuing, a pleasant sound called pan. Quickly, but carefully rolled out, the right middle poke bounces Kobria off the bamboo dragonfly. Sliding lightly over four or five meters, Cobria was struck to the earth like thrown debris.
"... Huh..."
On my forehead, I'm sweating like a bead. His right arm, still sticking out, is faintly trembling. My knees are laughing at my legs.
Duh. It was just an act of duh. I thought the girl was in danger as it was. At the next moment, my body was moving to be pushed.
Gi, and a cloudy voice goes up. Look, Cobria getting up. But it never came this way, and I ran away with a small run.
"Ha ha..."
Exhale loudly. You missed your sight, you stepped in more than you thought, and you became a fist that didn't let your handbeat hips in... you should just get rid of it and be good at it.
"Shh, wow! What is it now!
With the momentum of jumping lightly, the girl speaks up in admiration.
"... so, are you okay...?
The opposing shield manages to squeeze out his voice.
"Yes! This is Ish Marni's guide too, isn't it? Oh, thank you, of course!
"Oh, well... good"
Step toward the girl with a sigh of relief.
……
uncomfortable.
I was too desperate to realize... what. My body, it's light. Is it a pain in the ass?
This is the situation. It's not strange that I had one of the dizziness.
Lifeguard decided to tell herself that.
At first I wondered if the meadows continued everywhere three hundred and sixty degrees, but behind the place where the drifting shelter was standing, there was a distant view of some hills, small ponds and small woods.
The girl takes me out to the open street. The streets, though, were just traces of just treading back and forth on a grassless earth.
Is there a path in modern Japan that has not been developed so far...... Then again...
"... er, I'd like to ask you something. That's quite a lot, too."
"Ah, yes. But it's dangerous here, and somewhere to calm down..., let's go back to the cabin. This way, follow me!
Would you have walked for about four or five minutes? Outside the streets where the trees were turbulent, not so large as the woods, there was a cozy hut that was likely to be overlooked after being lit by too strong a moonlight. There seems to be a small field beside the cabin.
"It's narrow... go ahead -"
Enter the cabin as recommended.
A bamboo erected against a wall. A bunch of straw stacked in the corner of the room. Wooden table placed in the center of the room. Cantera placed on top of it. A chair placed on a table and set.... Cantera?
I look to the ceiling to be caught, surprised. I didn't see any kind of lighting.
Is there no way the electricity is on? In this day and age.
"Please sit down. So... you wanted to know something, right? You got lost, didn't you? You're not from around here, are you? It's clothes you don't see. Is it a long journey? Oh, isn't the destination Raindeer's castle? Princess, you're beautiful! No, but I personally recommend you, Belgrette! She's beautiful and she's cool!
... thin, I thought... but still, I have to ask.
"Isn't this... Japan"
"Nihon? What is it?
Occult that it travels thousands of kilometers in an instant. The suspicion of being thrown out to strange places. I can't believe it actually happened to me. Is there a foreign country?
"No, no, no! You speak Japanese!
"Nihongo? What is it?
Oh, come on. Whoa! He was a drifting shield desperate to fall off a chair, but was followed by an overkill blow beyond todome.
"Ish Marni is more beautiful tonight than usual...... after all, it's dark in the room. Yikes..."
The girl lit the candles of Cantera with a flame created from her hands holding nothing.
………………
"Huh? What is it?
Lifeguard stares silently at the girl's hand seriously. Again, I don't have anything in that hand. Matches and lighters aside, I don't have anything.
"Duh, what's wrong?
She had an embarrassing look on her face and hid her hands behind her back.
"... ah! I thought you were a jerk. Anyway, I can only use the elementary Divine Chant Oracle.
Yeah. It's adorable that you seem to be obstinate about something, but I have no idea what you're talking about.
Shiatsu almost wept.
Would foreign countries have been better yet? Is this better for the words to make sense?
Anyway, that's enough. I had no idea I would be practicing a method that I would often see in the fantasy of a different world summoning thing. Let's get started.
"Uh. I actually don't remember."
"Eh!
The girl also seems quite surprised, but no one is in the midst of surprise and confusion as she is now, the boy complacents. Still, you'd be calm in this situation. As much as I'd like to be complimented.
"Well, maybe with the name...?
"His name is Arima Current Protection. Nice to meet you!"
I will give you convenient information. On the contrary, something is already tense.
"Mr. Ariu Milugo?
"You can protect yourself."
"Okay, Mr. Lugo. Ah. I'm, uh, Minette. Minette Bazene."
"Minette? That's a beautiful name! Hahaha!"
"Ha, ha..."
I got pulled a little. Anyway, that was naturally a foreign lyke name.
"... so. Because I don't remember. I might ask around the obvious. I want you to acknowledge that."
"Ha, yes"
pins, and a minette that stretches her spine.
"Uh. Where the hell am I?
"Yes! It is the realm of the Kingdom of Raindeer, the Sandrian Plains!
Mm-hmm. I'm glad you're well. I have no idea.
"Uh... I don't know. Territory? Not something like that, but where are we on a bigger scale... the world..."
"Ki, you don't remember. I get it. Um."
With a tense face, Minette inhaled.
"This world we live in is called 'Grim Crows'. Under the patronage of the Creator, Jed Meteeu, we are allowed to live every day."
Again... isn't it even Earth? That's not exactly believable.
"Hmm. What about that array you just attacked outside?
"... Cobria, right? Thank you so much just now..."
You remembered, Minette's face turns a little blue.
"Cobria is a" grudge demon "you see a lot around the Sandrian Plains."
"Ohma?
It sounded slightly Japanese chic.
"A grudge demon is a dangerous organism that, unlike other animals, significantly harms people. Scholars have also studied it and categorized it in detail by recording it in a supplement. Not really, they say research is going on...... From the highest ranked S to the lowest ranked E. Cobria is e... but still out of the hands of civilians like me"
I thought it was a Japanese-style rhetoric called 'resentment demon', and words like 'rank' and 'e' also come out flat.
"No... is that him that bad? It flew like garbage."
"No, no, no, Mr. Lugo says he's amazing!
Sure, he's a creature I've never seen, he's creepy, and he's dangerous if he bites you with those fangs, but now that he's calmed down, he can probably repel you at his leisure even if he attacks you again... Karate boy thinks.
"And then... Right. I just lit this one without using tools or anything..."
The drift shield points to the cantera placed on the table between the two. The candles inside Cantera were shaking the fire fine.
"It's" The Divine Chant "Oracle. It's something you forget that far...... The Divine Chant" Oracle "manages to manifest in the world the attributes that people are supposed to have...? I'm not very familiar with it because I'm not a college student, but that's what they say. It's the power God has given me. Anyone with a fire attribute can do it to the extent that it lightly brings the fire together, as just now."
That's what I said, Minette, let me try to light a small fire on my index finger.
"Oh, wow, wow!
I still don't hide lighters and matches. Hands... on your fingertips, there's a fire on.
"... that's all I can do..."
As Liquid Protection stared seriously, Minette immediately put out the fire and hid her hands under the table.
"It sounds like when you become the 'Mage the Chanter' of a powerful fire, you can put out an awesome firepillar or something. Anyway, Mr. Lugo, just forgetting, should be able to use some kind of divine chant, Oracle. Because all people are born with only one attribute and can use the divine chant" Oracle "of that attribute. I mean, isn't it Mr. Lugo's technique that just took out Cobria?
Naturally, you can't use that kind of thing.
"No, it's just bare hands. Just now."
"Eh! I can't believe I'm going to kill a grudge demon with just my bare hands...... I don't think even the Knight of the Royal Palace can do that though. 'Cause I couldn't see Mr. Lugo's movements at all anymore. Mr. Lugo, he's gone! Cobria! Cobria! Like! I was wondering if you used the wind god chant Oracle."
... Sure, I kicked the earth with selflessness and hit that bucket thing. My body had a light sensation, but it wasn't such a magical thing.
"But it's like Geisserius from" The Dragon's Destroyer, "" Riuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, "to kill a grudge demon with bare hands alone. Ya, you can be the reincarnated Geisserius of modern times!
Minette, who somehow thrives by herself, thinks Stream Protection.
There are monsters called resentment demons. There is a magical power called the Divine Chant "Oracle". The man whose divine chant Oracle can be used is called the chanter Magee. The word Magee was familiar. It often comes up in games, comics, etc., about wizards.
"You also forgot that the lack of memory means" Secretary of Dragon's Destruction, "yes you do! The legendary brave man named in the secretary, Mr. Geisserius, said that he had defeated the grudges demons with a sword in his hand, Gram Lizil, sometimes with bare hands. Famous is the story of the exorcism of Evil Dragon Farvnar in Gram Ridgel!
"Hmm. Is that a famous story?
"No one knows! Guys, you should be growing up listening to this story when you were a kid. Of course, Mr. Lugo."
Naturally, I don't know about drift protection. Well, it's been conveyed that Minette likes the story.
"... hmm? By the way, does the fact that we're all born with the Divine Chant" Oracle "mean that people are all chanters" Maggie "?
"No. You can't be a chanter Mage unless you've been tested by a public authority and more than a certain amount of 'soul and mind power' is recognized. Soul Heart Power" Prarna "is the inner power that people are born to have...? They say it's like. I can't even want to be a magician Mage because the results of my tests show that I'm weak when my soul and heart, Prarna, do it. That's what only elementary techniques can handle..."
As I explain, Minette gets sober.
"I see. Hmm... If you're a chanter, Maggie, you can do something about me... I don't know."
"Ugh, hmm. I don't know."
In the meantime, I'm not likely to hear anything from Minette that would be a tip to go home.
The only thing I'm sure of is that I've come to a fantasy world that I never dreamed existed like this. No, actually, I guess I still can't throw away the possibility that I'm still dreaming.
Lifeguard stretches to change his mood and casually looks out the window.
"Even so. The moon, big guy."
"With?"
"Oh, the moon. You're too big... for anything"
"Tsk, ki? What is it?
"Huh? No, the moon is the moon... but if you do it, that's big"
Wherever you point your finger, the aim will be aligned, pointing to an object that is too huge.
"Damn, don't point to Ish Mani like that!
"Hey, what's up?"
I was unintentionally frightened by the unexpected sword screen of Minette.
"It is Ish Marni who will be seated in that night sky. You watch over us, goddess of the night..."
Minette closed her eyes towards the giant moon, hands together in front of her chest.
The figure of Minette praying in the light of the blue and white moon is too fantastic, too beautiful - drifting protection breathes unexpectedly.
I rush out of my sight from the girl and think. Western medieval fantasy-like world. God. There doesn't seem to be a concept of the moon. When that happens, will the sun be equal?
But maybe there's no imposition. Regardless of the drift protection that grew up in modern Japan, how do humans who really don't have any knowledge perceive it by looking at the sun and moon that floats in the sky? I felt no wonder that I thought it was God.
"... hmm? So it doesn't make sense to say 'moonlight' or 'moonlight'..."
"With, lights? Fierce?"
He's finished praying. Minette responds.
"Ah. Is that what you mean by" The White Week Moon "or" The Purifying Bud Moon "?
"No, I have no idea what you're talking about."
"... you know, I don't doubt it. Like... Nihon just now? Or so you said. Don't you remember something?
"Hmm? Right."
A huge moon - watching Ish Mani and Yado - emits a light that doesn't make you feel the pitch black around you, and the drifting shield answers as you exhale.
"It's going to be hard to get back to where you were."
"That's not the answer, is it?"
