"I'm fine. Let's just calm down."

"Ugh, yeah...... Ah! Water, I'm sorry......"

Here the Girl Knight turns to the water he has zeroed, or he hurries to his hips.

"Oh, never mind. Never mind. He said we could just pretend to wipe it a little bit."

Push her to stop and appropriately address the tissue, discard the garbage and then head to the kitchen.

"... I can't help being jittery for now. Let's take a breather. Do you want something to drink, Belko?

It's been a long time since I've seen a kitchen with no signs of long use. I dare make a bright suggestion while checking the contents of the cabinet.

"Ugh, yeah......"

"Coffee or tea, which is better?

"Uh... well, with tea..."

"Come on."

Try to prepare, notice that the pot outlet is unplugged. This is also a testament to my father's prolonged absence. I had no choice but to use a gas stove.

Remove the cup from the shelf and wait for the kan water to boil.

"... oh, yeah"

While sidelining the seemingly restless Belgrette, Lifeguard now once looked over the entire living room.

I have a few things to check.

The first thing I noticed was a wall-mounted calendar hanging by the kitchen cupboard. Distributed free of charge every year by my father's acquaintance liquor store. It is from October. but because of this chill, it is hard to believe that this is October.

…………

If checked up close, only 18 of the 1 to 31 numbers noted in the helmet were surrounded by cluttered red circles. By its side, it is also written 'out' with a red pen.

(My father went on a business trip on the 18th of October)

The absence of drift protection left his father alone, leaving the calendar unchanged and in October.

They also disappeared, such as Sen., who at first glance was a place he knew, but was actually a world of distant past and future. Only for what I lived in different worlds, the same time has passed here.

(No, actually, if I came up with a theory that parallel worlds are very similar... or something like that, I wouldn't have Kiri. So, when's my dad coming home...?

Turning around, the letters Red Circle and 'Back' were inscribed on the fourth day of December.

(About a month and a half this time? Sometimes I'd come home earlier than I planned for work, but I've only had enough to count... well, you can think of coming back on this street.... So, what month and what day is it?

If I try to be conscious again, I don't see anything that would allow me to confirm today's date. Let's just say that the calendar doesn't make sense unless people are well managed. Since the newspaper has been arranged not to come during my father's business trip, I can't even confirm the date with it.

(My phone is also showing bugs...)

Speaking of other things you might be able to find out the date...

Oh, there it is.

I find what I'm looking for being thrown out into a corner of the couch, and I pick it up.

"Mr. Bell."

"Mm, what?

Reflecting on Belgrette, the driftshield gave him a slightly mean grin.

"Turn on the TV now. You might be a little surprised, but calm down."

"Telabi...?

"Look, there's like a blackwater mirror used in the heavenly banquet there, right?

"... Oh, yeah"

Pointing to a thirty-two inch LCD sitting on the wall, she turns to a dark screen as she first notices its presence. I pressed the button on the remote I gripped to show the answer to the proper girl knight. It was the news show we were doing on Wednesday night that showed up painfully on TV. A serious looking man in a suit tells of what happened today with a camera gaze.

"Huh!? Oh, hey, what? This... who!?

"Ha ha, I guess I'm surprised"

To the girl in the fantasy world, who got a little too far as I expected, drift care briefly explained the TV thing.

"... for the sake of translation, you just have to think that it's like that black water mirror in the refe that you can see in each home"

"Without the divine chant Oracle, this... That's a hell of a technology..."

Being Pocan, Belgrette kept staring at the screen.

In contrast to her, who stays surprised, Lifeguard watches the show in a nostalgic way.

"Tomorrow, then, the weather is November 26th -"

"Whoa."

So I finally got the information I wanted to know.

(What do you mean, today is the twenty-fifth? Against the same twelve-month-old Grim Crows, you've had a misalignment for about a month. Well, it's not gonna be a big athe. Anyway... my dad will be back in about ten days...)

Summarize what you have to think about as you look behind the girl who is pinning her spine and nailing it to the TV.

I'm pretty sure this one had the same amount of time flowing while I was at Grim Crows for now.

I haven't been back in about six months about myself. And about the girl from different worlds we've done together.

The father, Arihai Yuanyi, is quite a flying part, and is not a person who solves entertainment. but i just told you about what happened in the last six months and i don't think you can believe it at all. Or so, I can't even think of a good make up story.

(Tell my father... how do you explain it...?

I can do anything with my own excuse. But how can you convince me that whoever sees it is a foreigner - that it also only looks like a lady of noble stature - about this girl?

Honestly, we didn't even know what to say or how to say it.

…………

but that stuff is just an immediate problem in the end.

The biggest concern puts a disturbing twist on the brain of drift protection.

In other words...

What are we going to do now?

I'm not talking about today or tomorrow. To exaggerate, we're talking about the future ahead.

Arishi Shield is back in his hometown. Honestly, it's too sudden and I'm still confused.

Just. Vague, but I know something.

(already...)

This phenomenon is inexplicable and extreme: the transfer to different worlds. Even though I said it was an anomaly just once I went through it, I was able to come back safely.

Naturally, this doesn't happen that way. There's no reason to wake up again and again. Maybe it'll happen, but I don't even know when that'll happen. If so,

(... bell child...,)

Once upon a time, the shield gave up returning.

This girl knight could never go back to her hometown.

As he dimensioned his thoughts, Kann informed him that he was peeping and ready.

Return to the kitchen to brew your own coffee and Belgrette tea. Instant, of course, but I even felt strange about such casual work.

"Wait. It's not very tasty, but it means I'm clothed."

"Oh, but you're in already?

"Oh, well. Belle, you'd be surprised."

Naturally, there are no instant drinks in that world. Make it coffee. Make it tea, it takes a lot of work to prepare.

One of the reactions of a girl knight was once again a boy who realized something called the difference in the world.

"Taste, don't you feel thin?

"Huh, a little... but this is it..."

And the flavors of such drinks are also slightly different again.

I felt uncomfortable with instant coffee because I was completely accustomed to the flavors of exotic herself and other worlds.

Put the cup down and look over the living room for the first time in six months now.

If you turn now to the analog clock on the wall, the time is before ten o'clock at night. So Lifeguard thought, took the pocket watch out of his pocket.

"I knew..."

The perfectly familiar clock of the other world pointed before seven o'clock. In "Over There," it was the time we were about to spend at night. Japan and Grim Crows have errors of about a few hours.

"What...!? That? What do you mean...!?

Belgrette, who checked his watch in imitation of drift protection, made his eyes black and white compared to the analog clock on the wall. Again, she was confused through it, too, and she didn't care that much.

"Well that's it. If we're too far apart from each other, time seems to be ticking. It's called jet lag."

"Yes, really...?

"... oh"

Of course, I almost left it out of my mouth. It is not a matter of scale such as jet lag. The world in the first place - I guess the planets are different, so time can't even match. Rather, the fact that both worlds adopt the same twenty-four hour method should in itself be tantamount to a miracle.

…………

The girl knight in front of her is tending to nag and harden herself. The seemingly unfamiliar weakness was reminiscent of a shaking rabbit thrown into an unfamiliar cage.

"Belko, you can make this a little easier. Lower your bags and pull out your shoulders..."

"But..."

The look on the girl's face remains unfloated.

A world full of things I've never seen. Oracle, a divine chant that is no longer available. A sense of responsibility that you are in the middle of a mission or that you must be worrying and annoying everyone. And anxiety that it won't be easy to go home.

All negative thoughts are still showing up on that face that is going to cry.

"All right, Belle, do you want to take a bath?

"... in that case..."

One cough, drifting protection stares at the face to face Belgrette with a serious eye.

"... Belle child. Like I said, from here to that place... to Grimcrows, it's not that easy to get back. I can't help it here, so let's do what we can now."

"Lugo is... you're calm"

Says the girl knight in a trembling voice, pinching between hesitations.

"How can you be so flat? To the hometown I've always wanted to go home to... because they came home to me? I don't know about the assignment anymore... I don't care about Raindeer anymore?

"No, that's not it..."

"Oh... oh, that. Sorry......"

Be aware that you were in a tone of blame, or say words of apology in a voice that seemed to disappear. That said, the bat looked bad and stuck to my mouth.

"... To be honest, I'm still confused, too. It's too icky. When I first got lost in that world, I did always want to go home... but now, I don't know what to say. Anyway, if I look calm, it's... it's the second time, maybe."

"Second time...?

"Oh. At first, from Earth to Grimcrows. And now, from Grimcrows to Earth. I was so surprised when I came out of that park earlier that I almost leaked, but this sudden 'metastasis'... is the second experience I've had. Maybe he thinks," Not again. "

It turned out to be a valve like other HR, but I didn't falsely tell her how I felt.

"So, this is my master's word."

'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'

"I did something in a hurry or confusion because I had to be good. First, I can't help but calm my mind down and then I can figure out what I can do. Even when I first got lost in Grimcrows, I remembered those words... and I heard a lot about them from Minette first."

Now I feel nostalgic, I remember that simple smile. You'll never see her again, her face.

"I met Belle, and she really helped me a lot. Ever since, with no help. If I hadn't met you, I'd have died a little wild."

Put on the words that follow, as long as they are genuine.

"Because I know how anxious Bell child feels about being lost in this world right now, painfully well. So now I'm going to help Bell. Relieve a little anxiety so you can think about what's coming. If I was in a hurry and tempered, Bell wouldn't be able to calm down."

With that said, tears began to creep into the eyes of the girl knight.

"Ma, wait. No crying, no crying."

"Oh, I'm not crying."

Belgrette wiped her eyes with tears.

"... sorry. Me, the Divine Chant" Oracle "doesn't express itself, or I want to get back soon, it's all about me..."

"No, no. Instead, you're always so stupid about people that sometimes you should think about yourself."

The drift guard reassembles his legs and looks up at the ceiling with a rough nose.

"First...... do you want to put a little bit of everything together? Honestly, there's nothing we can do about it now. Mandatory, it's not like Belko and I are losing it now. I found the crystallized soul and mind of my purpose, Prarna, and all I have to do is mine and go home. I can't reach you, but this is how we're safe. For now......"

Unlike earlier, Belgrette waits for the words to continue with a calm face.

"What bothers me is that green vortex, after all. What the hell is that...? Does that happen to the first bob? Or is it just in that castle...? I'm pretty sure that caused the metastasis. Dr. Locke was amazed at what he saw, and I'm guessing it's something he didn't even assume."

Will someone else fall or not? If I fall, will I be led to that park in the immediate neighborhood of this world like the homeless people? If so,

(Dr. Rock......)

At that time. If the Doctor had fallen with us - the dream of a man who had been wanting to return to this world for fourteen years would have been fulfilled.

(It's sarcastic... I honestly gave up. I'm so much better off coming back...)

Set aside that sentiment for a moment and think about the relationship between the transfer and that park.

At least I've known a lot about that park since I was a kid, but nothing particularly odd. There is of course no anecdote that a foreigner dressed in fantasy appeared out of nowhere, etc. As for the transfer to the park, I have to say I don't know if it's inevitable or accidental.

"Oh no, Belle... when you were about to fall from it, you said that the Divine Chant" Oracle "wouldn't come out."

If that was just a hole, the degree to which it would crawl using the injective power of the surgery was sufficient. According to Belgrette, however, the procedure did not activate at all.

"Yep...,..."

The nodded girl knight shows a bare gesture of thinking something there.

"Oh, did you notice anything?

"Oh, yeah. It's not a big deal... I thought it had something to do with the fact that the Divine Chant" Oracle "would not be expressed in this world..."

"No, um..."

That green underground and earth. Together, you mean a place where God's miracle is invisible?

As for drift protection, I can't find anything particularly unexpected in common.

"When you were about to fall, didn't you get anything at all? Like earlier, there was just a little water."

"Ugh, it was moving then, so that's it..."

"Well..."

Mm-hmm. I'll roar and say another theory.

"A room with a sealing technique can't get communication or use the technique, can it? Was that place a natural space, too?

I hear that when Mia was once kidnapped, she was locked in one of those rooms.

"Yeah. It's not like the Divine Chant" Oracle "doesn't express itself at all in the case of a room with a seal. It's just that the technique gets played. That place really felt like... just now..."

"I see. Is that the difference"

If you shut up, Bergrette sounded bright this time.

"Well, maybe I can't help thinking about it right now."

But the energy of the air is in the face of full understanding. I'm sure I don't want to worry about drift protection at all.

"It's okay."

Liquid shielding, in the wind enlightened by driftshielding, is severely uttered.

"Be sure to go to Grim Crows...... I can go home to Raindeer. In fact, this is how I went back and forth. It's proven that you can come and go, so it's absolutely fine."

"... yeah. Thank you, Lugo."

Seeing that smile, the Japanese boy's chest ached ticklishly.

Naturally, because there was no such thing as a guarantee that I could return to that world again.

"That's it. You all right? You think you can do it?

"Mm-hmm. I'll try...!

"Well said," said Lifeguard, thumbing up against Belgrette, whose nose snorted roughly.

Well, when it comes to something.

He was lecturing the Lady of the Fantasy World on how to use the bath of the Arai family.

Nevertheless, there is nothing else difficult. The bathtub is already stretched with proper temperature water, no burning required. There's nothing like Belgrette having to operate something.

Slightly different is the degree to which the shower is used, but this also ends up just having to twist the lever. If you are a brilliant Belgrette, then Lifeguard believes it is a problem-free mission.

With regard to the clothes he was wearing, he described lightly the drum washing machine sitting in the stripper and told him to throw it into it. Exactly, leather capes and leather armor don't seem possible, so these will figure out another way later.

...... but there are boys and girls around the age.

They don't want to be seen laundry. Belgrette insisted she wash herself by hand, but the Arai family has no desire in the first place. Even if it does, you can't allow it. The bathroom is small and the garden is the only place you can use it.... but if a neighbor can see the sight of a strange foreign beautiful girl encouraging hand washing in the yard of an Arishi family where no one is supposed to be - and so on, it will definitely be a hassle.

It is possible to wash without having to look at the contents using the button operation only. I was able to cordially and politely preach the excellence of such a civilized, instrumental drum-washing machine and manage to convince them.

And one more thing to remember.

"And then you get dressed. I'm sorry I don't have any decent clothes... but for now, I need you to put this on for a bath."

"Yeah, thanks..........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Naturally they give me clothes that I wouldn't know about, and the eyes of the lightly iced "Ice Blue" look strangely open.

"It's my school-designated jersey. You have athletic clothes and stuff in college, just like that. By the way, I haven't worn it once. It's brand new, so it's not dirty."

"What, not once? But... are you sure?

"I have a bunch of the same ones. I can't run out of them, and don't hesitate to wear them."

"Yes, what.... Wow, that's a nice touch..."

Green jersey, she nodded Hmm as she took a substitute too unlike the lady of the fantasy world.

It is a house where only two men lived for more than a decade. She didn't have any other clothes to wear.

"I guess this is the place...... Well, then take a slow bath."

"Oh, wait!

Belgrette's hasty voice goes to the back of the drift guard who tried to leave the stripper.

"What's up?

"Uh, the..."

"Was there anything else you didn't understand? Ask me if you have any concerns."

"................................."

A toothpick that is worse than it seems would be a sign of stray. Is it that hard to ask for?

"... that... here, I want you to wait..."

…………

……

……

"Huh? What the hell?

"Ugh, whatever."

"Here? You mean wait in this stripper while Belko is in the bath......!?

"Come on, I'm not hearing you, I'm hearing you!

The look of the girl blushing in embarrassment seemed like that would be the only offering of the night - a doggy shield, but that's not the one to worry about.

On this occasion, wait for Belgrette in the bath. That is. There's nothing more to it than a situation where there's a girlfriend on the other side of the bathroom separated by cloudy glass.

"Yes, no, um... that's it, even through this glass, you'll see about people's silhouettes. On the contrary, that's all I know... but, well..."

"Ugh, yeah. Right. Heh, I'm sorry I said something weird. So..."

"Hey, wait a minute"

Like Belgrette earlier, this time the drift protection waited.

"Uh, why are you doing that...?

Naturally, the girl draws a knot to her mouth, whereas the stray guard has doubts. After a few rounds, he opened his mouth as he had noticed.

"After all, I'm anxious about how to use the bath... and... being alone is a little... meticulous..."

…………

I was all the more convinced by the boy's heart, which seemed to fill me with his heart.

If you try Bergrette, this is exactly the 'other world' where you don't know the right or the left. How unforgivable it must be to be left naked and alone as words say in such a place.

"All right, all right"

The drift shield lowered somewhat to a small chair for basket placement.

"I'm here. Here, we can talk about it at the bath door."

"..., thank you.... Well, I'm sorry, say it selfishly..."

"No, no, you can say it more selfishly. The usual Bell kid does too much of anything on his own. I'm glad you're counting on me."

More laughably, the girl seemed sorry. Again, she said thank you.

……

……

A strange silence descends.

"Mm, what's going on during this time? You can have him in now. Be sure to come in before it gets cold."

"... well, I'd like to take my clothes off..."

That's what they said. Finally, the driftshield said, "Oh, wow, bad!," he floated.

"Uh, uh, just like I said, leave everything in this washing machine. Then call me when you're ready."

He mumbled quickly and the boy temporarily dispersed from the stripper.
