Fushi no Kami: Rebuilding Civilization Starts With a Village

Day 2 of arrival in the city.

This morning, I was told that I would go to the temple and study reading and writing at the same time with all the Sons of the Army.

I look forward to going to the temple.

However, since the pleasure of going to the temple is the pleasure of reading and writing, I would like to refrain from studying reading and writing. It ended three years ago.

When I consulted Arthur about that, he promised me he would be fine.

"Some people remember reading and writing first, so it should be flexible. Anyone who can do it can read any book they like."

"That's great!

Flexible education tailored to individual qualities. I'm looking forward to the shrine's library, and I can't wait to get there.

Arthur was surprised to be one step behind, but Miss Micah quickly talks about my acceleration.

Good, Ash-kun.

"Yes! One of the reasons I came to the city is because I wanted the temple's library! You're lucky to get a chance to browse on day two!

First, let's find out if there are any books that will give us basic chemistry knowledge and technology. Or a practical agronomy book.

The goal is chemical fertilizer.

Micah, can you help me?

"Of course. You just have to look for a book that says fertilizer, compounds, that sort of thing."

The boulder is Mika-san, this way.

I should have shared what I was looking for before I left the village. You're still a friend and ally.

Arthur, who had caught up late, tended to hesitate to get mixed up in the conversation.

"Well, I don't know, but there's a book you're looking for, right?

"Yes, there was something I didn't know about just the books in the village."

"That's right. I'm a little curious... can I help you?

Welcome, Workforce.

When I smiled, Arthur somehow took a step back. Micah, who supported her back, smiled bitterly and explained.

"Oh, it's just a temper. It's okay, I'm not afraid."

"Huh? Ah, uh, yeah... thank you. It was kind of weird and powerful."

"Yeah, everybody feels that way, so it's okay, it's not weird."

What the hell did I do? I was just trying to be friendly.

At the shrine, a woman somehow resembled Lady Micah and Lady Yuika responded.

She is a calm intellectual beauty at her age, whether she is twenty or not.

"You two are Micah and Ash. Nice to meet you, my name is Yae. I'm one of the men in charge of seating at the Military Sons Association."

"Hi, my name is Micah. Thank you for your help."

Beyond Miss Micah, who greeted politely, I had a sudden feeling of intimacy with the priest in front of me.

Oh, this is Father Yae. I have to thank you.

"My name is Ash. I've never seen you before, but thank you very much. Thank you very much."

"Oh, did you have any luck?"

Father Yae leans his right hand against his cheek. It feels a little attractive.

"Yes, I've heard through Father Volke that it's indirect, but you've been fractured to find the book I want."

"A book from Father Volke...."

An intelligent beauty opens her eyes.

"Ah, are you the young man who spoke to Father Volke! Did you ask for that puzzling book?

"I don't know what kind of writing it was, but it probably was. I don't think anyone else in the village asked Father Volke to get a book."

Father Yae retreats one step behind him.

"Hey, I feel a little dizzy....."

"Oh, are you okay?

I wonder if I felt ill.

Miss Micah grabbed me by the shoulders and stopped me when I tried to get closer.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

What is the cause?

"I and everyone in the village are used to it, but Ash-kun has a lot of excitement, so we have to be careful with the first person."

"Micah, I feel like I'm being told it's dangerous."

"No, that's not true.

Miss Micah denied it in a hurry. Good. You felt like you were being poisoned.

"Just because your mother tells you to stay away from other people while Ash is at it."

I'm a runaway vehicle or something.

It's dangerous after all. I am aware of strangers, but I don't think so.

While I was under shock, it seemed that Father Yae had recovered.

"I'm sorry, I was much younger than I expected...."

"No, I'm sorry for the confusion. My Ash-kun surprised me."

Now, while I was stunned by the shock, Miss Micah apologized for entering manners mode.

Wait. What do you mean, "our"? Hazardous Material Handling What is your next possession?

"But if Father Volke wrote about Ash-kun as a child, did he not?

"Ah, no, that's exactly what it said...."

Father Yae will observe me once more.

It's subtly out of focus, and I feel like it's a long way from seeing me.

"Anyway, I really don't know if I'm as young as I say.... I mean, it's a book that no one in this temple can understand. Besides, in the previous story, that person found an important clue in the decoding of the ancient language in the previous period....."

"Ah, you thought Father Volke was making a big deal out of it. It's not impossible. Anyway, it's Ash-kun."

Micah looks delicately delighted at the confused priest Yae.

When I wondered why, Miss Micah whispered to me modestly.

"It's a boulder, Ash-kun. It was amazing in the village, but it was amazing in the city! You can be proud of the village!

Is it a village specialty?

I didn't know. Miss Micah, did Mrs. Yuika think you were pulling it like that?

"Really, is Ash the young man who spoke to Lord Volke? Really? Is it true? Well then, you certainly don't need to study reading and writing anymore."

"Yes, I think so. My father, the chief of the village, and his mother, who assisted him, were also pressing their hearts. By the way, I'm not as good as Ash-kun."

"I see. Now, neither Micah nor Ash need to study reading and writing. Please read your favorite book at that time. We hope to expand our insights and contribute to the development of our cities."

"Yes, thank you. Ash-kun wouldn't betray that expectation."

Lady Mayka pushes the half-subtle Yae priest out with the village chief's family's voice. I'm glad to hear that conversation, but I'm not happy right now.

Then Arthur called out.

"Ash, what the hell is deciphering the ancient language?"

"Whatever they say... it's a decoding of the ancient language. Previous period" of ancient civilization "

"Previously on Ancient Civilization, you know, letters that you can't read anymore?

"Deciphering that letter."

Arthur's beautiful face attracted him like he saw a ghost.

"Ash, you... Micah says it's a little too stimulating."

"I am aware that I am strange, but I am not surprised if you understand the situation properly. Let me explain something to you."

It's just that Father Volke happens to be a researcher in the decoding of ancient languages, and I'm just helping out a little.

"No, I've only seen a few letters of ancient civilization in the previous period... but it's not very good, but I don't feel like I can help."

I can't do it if I don't have the same memory as I did in my previous life.

I think we can get an approximate understanding if we can get this straight. And you can see it with even stranger eyes. So I can't tell you.

I feel this dilemma getting bigger and bigger.

When I was smiling ambiguously, Miss Micah smiled into the room.

"Sure, Ash-kun is very exciting, but it's really interesting to be with you, and better things are going to happen."

Miss Micah's bright smile will soak up the gap in your heart.

Arthur seemed to be the same, but his surprised expression loosened.

"That's probably true, too. People like Ash have never seen or heard of it before... fufu, it might be interesting to think so."

Arthur laughed with a dull smile and was as cute as he deserved.

If there are no circumstances in which I am dressed as a man, I would like to compliment you honestly.

"I wonder if the book we're looking for after this is exciting."

"I don't know. I just want to make something that helps agriculture, so I don't think I should expect much."

I want you not to raise the hurdle. I'm not doing anything to surprise you.

"Arthur, don't worry. Even what Ash-kun obviously says, there are a lot of amazing things."

"Fufu, that's right, that's what I thought."

Miss Micah and Mr. Arthur laugh together.

Even though I'm supposed to be at the center of the conversation, I'm the only one left out.
