Outaishihi ni Nante Naritakunai!!

Lena must be seeing her parents by now.

A corner of the Imperial Castle. She muttered as she sipped her tea in the room she was given.

His Highness Friedrich told me that Lena's parents were coming. There is also a story that they want to see. He was also invited to attend the reunion, but he refused.

I didn't want to imitate the idea of watering the reunion of my parents and children.

”... I wish I could have gone home”

A single murmur. The nonsense was unmistakably true.

Lena had a place to go. Unlike me, there is a place to call home. I didn't know that she chose not to go home when there was one.

"If I were--"

Speak up and stop along the way. I knew there was no point in saying it.

I'm here, and I'm sure I'll stay here forever.

I didn't lose hope in the original world, but I knew it was a dream story.

Even in Wilhelm, where magic and sorcery are said to be progressing, there is no such technology as transferring to another world.

I think one day it's going to be difficult... to see if it's going to come true.

……

Twinkle your eyes and pour tea into your throat. I think about myself from time to time.

Even though it doesn't make sense to think about it, I think it's because I want to go home.

……

"- It's been a long time. I wonder how you've been." I haven't seen you like this since Tarim. "

"Ah!?"

Suddenly a woman appeared in front of me. She sits gracefully on the sofa and waves at us. I've only seen this woman in a fortune teller costume once.

"...... The Witch of Knots, Maeza"

"Oh, you remember me? I'm glad."

When she called her name, she narrowed her eyes with joy. The golden eyes are beautiful and confusing. I used to wear something like a veil, but it was different today.

You're looking at me with a beautiful face.

The first time I went to Tarim, a woman suddenly appeared like this and disappeared.

She told me to go to Wilhelm, and now I'm here.

It was strange that she was in front of me, but at the same time she felt very natural.

"... what can I do for you?"

I was unconscious, but my voice was trembling. The last time she pointed me in the direction of what she was saying, her heart was beating with tension.

"I'll ask straightforwardly." Do you want to go home? "

Huh?

"I don't want to go home, if you want to stay here, that's fine too." But if you want to go home-- "

"I want to go home...! I want to go home!!"

They were screaming reflexively. I got up from the sofa and pulled over to her.

"Is there a way for me to go back to Japan?"

Hearing my words, she distorts her naturally shaped lips. And he said, as if to reveal a secret.

"Yeah, I got it, so I came here."

She laughs, ignoring me as I change the colour of my eyes.

“I got the tools I needed. All we have to do is ask for their help. Ask Theon and Prince Wilhelm for help. Tell me your truth and hang your head for help. And visit Wilhelm's witch Derris with them.”

"... the Prince and his wife of Wilhelm... His Highness Friedrich and His Majesty the Queen?"

I can't hide my surprise at the name that was given. I had no idea why I needed their help.

"What do you mean, how could they help?"

"We need their special powers." Wilhelm's royal family possesses special powers. I'll tell you more when I bring them in. This is Wilhelm's confidential business, so I can't speak up either. "

"I see..."

I didn't ask why I knew the royal secret.

Because she is a witch. It is no wonder that I know something.

“I feel a little bit responsible for the fact that you've become a lost person. That's why I'll let you know what you want."

Isn't it an accident or something that brought me to this world? "

"It was an accident, because I didn't mean to call you in."

Meissa laughs meaninglessly.

Perhaps it is because of her that I have come to this world.

Is that why she is cooperative with me? In that case, I don't know what to say... no, thanks to it, I met the cherry blossom that was reborn. If you can send me back to Japan, don't say anything anymore.

"... I understand. Please continue."

As she urged ahead, she looked straight at me. Golden eyes were wobbling.

She told me as if it were a pronouncement.

"You followed my advice and went to Wilhelm. As a result, I managed to make contact with the Prince and his wife. Whether they will help you or not, what you have done so far will tell you.”

"My... behavior...?"

"Do you believe your story, and can you help me get home?" Normally, I wouldn't expect a prince and his wife in one country to break their bones for you alone. You know how absolutely indispensable identity is in this world. The next king and wife of the great power Wilhelm. There are so many people in the clouds. "

"That's..."

Exactly.

I am fortunate to have managed to make contact with them, and now I am allowed to serve close to them, but that is impossible as it should be. His Highness Friedrich and his concubine are honorable people who, if they don't do well, they won't even be able to see for the rest of their lives.

I am here now because I am lucky. That's all.

"What's more, your story is about you being transferred from another world, so I wonder what kind of insanity you want me to cooperate with you in returning home. Who would believe that? We have to accept it and let them know we can move to get you back. No matter how you think about it, it's impossible. But that's what you're going to do now."

……

I couldn't answer Maeza's question.

I'm going to become me and I'm going to serve the country of Wilhelm. But it's also true that it's been less than a year since I've been here.

In the process of building a relationship of trust. Can you believe that I suddenly talked about the otherworldly transition... it's just a bet.

“That's all I can do. If you can't bring in the prince and his wife, you can't return. So show your sincerity. Tell your truth, all the truths you don't want to be known, and help yourselves. And accept the answer they gave. That's all you can do."

"... I see..."

His voice trembled, but he managed to reply.

Expose everything to me. All the truths I didn't want to know were exposed to the cherry blossoms... no.

And must be accepted.

What did you do when you came here, until you got to Wilhelm? I remembered it and was shocked.

I don't want to tell you. I don't want you to know.

But Maeza would say that's what I'm paying them for.

There's no way I can just say that I'm not giving you anything and that I'm just asking you to cooperate.

"That's the end of the story." I'll be waiting for you at Delice's. "

"Please wait. Derris is a medicine witch, isn't he?" I don't know where she is. "

I don't know.

A woman in Wilhelm called the Witch of Medicine. I know her rumor, but I can't tell where she's hiding. I can't believe you're here.

Anxiously, she gave me a plenty of room to smile.

"Don't worry about it." They can take you under Derris if they can help. ”

"Ah....."

All she has to say is that she disappears.

When I was alone in the room again, I sat back on the sofa I was sitting on and took a big breath out.

It's a shock that's relieved of tension, and my heart hurts badly. On the sudden opportunity to return home, I almost dazed.

She shuddered and shouted.

"... hah, hahah... can I go home?"

― ― To Japan.

If I don't get home, I'll have to go back to the place where I gave up.

- Really?

I have an unbelievable feeling about it. However, I knew that the existence called the witch was very special.

There are only seven witches in the world, and they use a completely different system of magic.

That's what a witch can do, even if it's just a miracle.

That's why I couldn't say 'lies'.

That's what she said, a witch.

But that's it.

In order to return to Japan, I must ask both of them for help.

To His Highness Friedrich and His Majesty the Queen.

I want you to help me, and for that reason, I need to tell you what I did until I came here to tell you that I'm a transmigrant across the world.

Why was I caught in the eye of King Tarim? What did I do first when I came to this world?

I'm sure that "all" that Maeza said also included it.

The day I first came to this world, I must confess to the cherry blossoms that I used reflex magic to kill people.

……

Not now.

As a military master, I have slaughtered hundreds of enemy soldiers. I don't know how much longer I've been made aware of my first murder.

But I didn't want them to know. I didn't want the cherry blossoms to know about that first murder.

Grasp your fist on your thighs.

I have no choice but not to say it. We have no choice but to be prepared.

To fulfill my wishes.

Then you return to Japan and spend the rest of your life sacrificing the cherry blossoms.

"... cherry blossoms"

Even if it's a cold tombstone, I want to return to the land where she sleeps, even if I know I'll never see her alive again.

That's what I want.

What should I do now to seek their help? How should I move?

Slowly get up.

Yeah, that's right. I don't have to think about it. It's ridiculous to be bothered.

Because the answer comes from a long time ago.

No matter what you sacrifice. No matter what the price, I will definitely go back to Japan.

Having set my mind, I left the room as I wished.

Heading towards the office of His Royal Highness Prince Friedrich, Prince Wilhelm.

"I am a metastatic."

Everything starts with those words.
