Isekai Taneuma

Where we come from and where we go

When Guillaume jumped from the tree that was watching the village, he lowered his posture so that no one could find him, and sneaked from the bush through the bush to the outer edge of the village.From there, shaded fallow land was spreading, and it seemed impossible to reach Canaan's clinic in hiding.

Then it would be nice to wait for the night to ride in the dark... but when he was ready, he ended up walking straight into the village.The village is obviously not popular in the first place, and there is no need for anyone to blame it.Ning, I came here with the intention of checking directly with the Wingman as to why there is no one here, so there is no need to be any more shitty.

When Guillaume was exposed from the forest to the village, he first approached the nearby private house.As expected, there were no signs of people from inside the house, and even if I knocked on the door, there was no reply.When I pulled the door out of my mind, it wasn't locked because it was a private house in the countryside, and when I looked inside, nobody was there.

The same was true of the private house next door, which was dozens of meters away from it, except that there were barrels of soil on the warehouse.However, seeing the fields around the house, the crops were not planted, but the acorns were properly erected and perhaps seeds were scattered in the soil.And where did the man of this house go, leaving the field?

From there to the clinic in Canaan, there were still a few houses, but everything was similar and somehow there seemed to be people, but in fact there was still a situation where there was no one child.It was the impression that the whole village was camouflaged to make it look like it was hidden from the beginning, rather than the feeling that the whole village was hidden from God.

As far as I could think, it was the wingmen who did it, but I had no idea why they needed to do it.

Go through the side of the field and climb to the small hill in the middle of the village.Guillaume came to Canaan's clinic and looked into the woods where he had been hiding.He knew exactly where the hammock was, but I was sure his luggage wasn't visible at all and that his cover was perfect.

And yet, at that time, she looked him in the eye... and felt like...I think it was just a coincidence, but just in case, he decided to make sure the exit was confirmed.Under that tree is a backpack full of minimal luggage.When it's time, grab it and go down the mountain.

After spending some time checking out the exit, he finally stood at the door of the clinic.One shot from here.There won't be any sudden attacks, but don't let your guard down.As he told himself so, he knocked on the door of the clinic.

It only looked like a wooden door, but it felt harder than I expected and made a slightly higher sound.While learning a strange feeling, when I knocked again, I heard footsteps approaching from inside.

Tension ran and he regretted a little that he was doing the wrong thing.I really shouldn't have done this, I shouldn't have gone down the mountain... but by then, the clinic door was already open.

Go home.

And it was closed.

Guillaume stood on the spot.

... or I couldn't catch up with what happened.Somehow, when I thought the door was open and that woman came out, I looked down at him with an unpleasant look like a cockroach, and then I said a word and closed the door....

"Hey, hey! Fuck you!What are you closing up all of a sudden?

Why are you being locked out all of a sudden?He's in my head. Don't! Don't!As I slammed the door, a loud noise approached from the inside as I stepped on the floor.

"What is it, you!Doors to people's homes over and over!You're being rude. "

"Pay up front, which is rude!

"Ah? What's wrong with denying an appointment to someone who doesn't have one?This is my house. "

"Ah? What kind of appointment is that, you?Just let me see Wingman.I'm here to see him, not you!

"If you're a Canaan teacher, you can't just walk through here.If you really want to see me, please follow the steps and come back. "

"What the hell! I've already come so far, can you do such a long thing?Just get out of my way!

When Guillaume tried to force herself into the room, the woman tried to stop it, and the two started rubbing together like a sumo pushing between the doors.The doorway is rattling, and I feel like the whole clinic is shaking.

I'm sure that was noisy.As they were pressing each other together, Canaan emerged from the inside after a while, stirring up the warm curtain that followed behind the clinic.

"What's all this noise... oh?Are you a customer?

"No, sir.I'm turning you back now. "

Astarte immediately denied, and Canaan smiled bitterly.

"Well, you don't have to push anything back.Er... you did... come here once before, with Lord Hermes. "

"Ah, ahh... that's right."

"Can I help you...?Well, there's nothing to stand up for, so please come up. "

"Are you sure?

"Shit... I'm in the back."

When Canaan tried to bring Guillaume in, Astarte punched his tongue openly and pulled back into the busy world.I wonder why they hate me so much, and Canaan looks sorry.

"Oh, I can see, I'm surprised to be a companion.Here you go. "

Guillaume understood what he was saying.It must have been when you used to say bad things about Wingman in front of you at Phoenix's tavern.Then Canaan will already know that Guillaume suspects.He thought it would be better if he apologized before he went in... and returned to me.

I didn't come here to get along with Canaan in the first place.I was unconscious from the interaction I had with her earlier and was trying to get up into the house following the advice as usual, but it would be too dangerous to go into the enemy's home helplessly.

He stopped his legs in a hurry to enter the room and turned his back on the exit so that he could jump out immediately.

"No, I'm not staying long, so I don't mind."

"Don't be shy.Don't worry about her. "

"That's not true.It's just going to be here. "

"... otherwise, I won't take it and eat it.

Whether you know our mood or not, Canaan can say it all.

………………

As Guillaume looked at him in front of him and remained silent, Canaan held his shoulder as if he had given up, and then pulled the chair near him.

"Now, if you'll excuse me, I'll have to sit down.I'm growing wings, so my back hurts gradually when I stay standing up... so what happened today, all by myself? "

Guillaume takes a deep breath.

"Before that... why is she here?He should still be in Phoenix City by now. "

"No, you just happened to be here when I came back.Nina, why are you here?You didn't come after her. "

"... don't bother me.This is what happens when you get back to Phoenix. "

"I see. I'm in trouble...."

Canaan looks cool when he says he won't know until he gets home.Guillaume frowned uncomfortably.

"I saw the village on the way here.Why can't I find one child?There is no one here, but for some reason the fields are carefully maintained.Who the hell did this?You guys?

"I don't think so.There are villagers.The evidence is that the fields are maintained. "

"Liar! I went into the house and looked into it.As a result, there's no sign of anyone in this village for a while. "

Canaan also had a faint expression on the boulder.

"You're in trouble getting into someone's house on your own... what would you do if someone were there?"

"That's why I wasn't there.I'm telling you, I opened the door to the house one after the other and checked inside!

Then Canaan sighed.

"But hey, were you... Guillaume?There are still villagers.I'm here. I can see it.Still you can't see because you're not trying to see it?

"What do you mean? It's no use trying to get away with that.There's nobody in the village right now. "

"Are you sure...?

Um... If you go there for a minute, you'll see. "

That's what Guillaume said when he was stunned.But while Canaan stared at his face,

"Maybe you're the one who's not here?

"Hmm, what!?

"For example... what path did you take when you came here?Didn't you go into the mountain alone without guidance?It was dark outside, and you took the road without a path... didn't you go the wrong way then?

Guillaume looked at the words.I don't know what the man in front of me is saying.Have you gone crazy or are you acting like that?Either way, I can't wait to keep talking about it.As Guillaume strengthens his expression, Canaan softens his expression.

"Late at night, walking in the darkness of the moon, I hear that sometimes people disappear away from the logic of the world.We describe it as something that was hidden from God... but have you recently walked on a path of darkness that no one can see? "

Then I remembered.Yesterday, the mountain road that I went to before I came here was exactly that way.He walked the road without turning on the lights of the pine so that the villagers wouldn't find him.

But it's about what it is.Because Guillaume looks like a boy, did you think it would scare me if I had a suspicion?While he was frustrated, he kept his mouth shut.....

Canaan said this before to control him.

"You've been trying to find a distortion in space lately.Deliberately, unconsciously.You were trying to see the other side of the world, weren't you?

"Ha...!?

The distortion of space... the words made Guillaume's heart squeak.I don't know if it's Tu Xing or not... No, I didn't know why the word came out of the Wing Man's mouth in front of me in the first place.

"The world is distorted, and there are things like that everywhere.If you can see it consciously, the world will not be one for that person.Have you recently had such an experience?For example... when I touched light in a castle dungeon, it was as if I was moving into another space... for example, when someone was disassembled or returned by a device, for example, when I moved from town to city instantly by magical force... "

"Oh... well... what are you saying...?"

"We call such skimmers wormholes, but if you're one of Sir Hermes' people, would it be easier to call them the Town Portal?You passed through that skima and unwittingly blended into this space.Because of this, this is the village of Canaan, not the village of Canaan, as far as you know. "

Guillaume lost his posture due to shock or dizziness.The door at the back door rattled.I came here thinking that the Wing Man in front of me was suspicious, but it wasn't a suspicious noise.He knows what's in our hands.This man is at least a Leonardo or a Feng-class wanderer or something.

"Who are you...?

Guillaume glanced at Canaan with his arms supporting his lying body and his unfocused gaze.His soft face is a bit shaky and disgusting.Candle flames on your desk get bigger, smaller, brighter, or darker.It's as if you're hypnotized.He finally noticed the smell of opium filling the room when he wondered why he stood so dizzy because he was too busy thinking.

When he realized it, he panicked to think of an extra-large rifle in his brain and tried to summon it with modern magic (qualia).In a moment, the light popped into his hand and disappeared into the void, and at the same time his MP was secretly consumed.He won't get drunk while his MP recovers.This will make it a little easier... when Guillaume is wiping his forehead sweat, the look on Canaan's face seems unusual.

"Hmm... I'll do something strange, you.What was that?

"Shut up! Answer the question, not the question.Who are you!?

"You're a one-sided person.You call that a catchball, right?I'm sure you can answer me.... "

Canaan murmured in disgust.Angry with the attitude, Guillaume continued to think desperately with his blurry head.

"No, what is Wingman in the first place?If it is an indigenous people of the New World, why is it drawn to the north?Are you sure you guys were there from the beginning?Where did you really come from?What does this continent have to do with human beings?Why do you look so much like an angel in Christianity?What kind of joke is it to preach that Christianity? "

And then Canaan had this troublesome look on his face that he wouldn't be able to answer at once.

"Answer the questions without rushing.Just... think about it before you do.You say where we come from, but where do you humans come from?

"... what?

"This is not the earth you were born on.For some reason there was P99 in this world from the beginning.Who prepared it? A thousand years ago, Sofia got down here and stood.The demon tribe already existed before she made the priest.Why? Where in the universe is this place?Is the law of physics the same as Earth?Have you ever thought about that?

Guillaume was unable to answer the question.No, as one of the people living in this world, I'm sure I couldn't answer that question.Isn't that like asking how this world was created?

Why would Canaan ask such a thing...?Do you think he knows why?Guillaume was confused by the newly boiling questions, including the ambiguity of its existence, the suspicions that were attached to Feng for some reason, and so on.
