Re:Zero Kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu (WN)

- A series of 'witchcraft disturbances', starting with the Watergate city of Pristela.

The tragedy that struck the inhabitants and the remaining claw marks of the battle all over the city. A number of city functions that still cannot be restored and cut off to compensate for lost personnel.

Problems still remained, but things were nevertheless headed to tidy up and about to start moving on to the next story.

Even for Natsuki Subaru, the numerous problems of the city have a chest ache.

Still, if you look at the streets after repelling witchcraft, you're going to be so complacent that you could have contributed a little to the consequences.

"There are still plenty of unresolved problems."

The nail marks left by the Archbishop of the Great Crimes, among them the 'lust' and 'bulimia' in particular. That is immense.

Residents whose flesh was mutated by the power of 'lust'. Its flesh becomes a 'state of provisional death' by Emilia's hands, waiting for the hour of awakening in a shelter deep in the city.

And those attacked by the appetite of 'bulimia', the majority of whom are still on the floor of never-ending sleep, even remain deprived of the bond of waiting wholeheartedly for their awakening.

The look on Emilia's face, who proposed to solve the problem of mutant residents and postpone it, is painful.

I can't even imagine Julius' heartache, which eliminates his own place and troubles him the way he is.

The hearts and minds of the people of the cities that have become parties to the problems, the wounds of which will go without saying.

All of them, they're wounded.

It's Subaru's job to do what he can to heal that wound.

And

"I still have a problem I need to clean up."

Subaru nodded to solve the last, less bright problem.

All this, Subaru has to do.

Julius said he was coming with us.

"Is that it? Then we won't feel safe."

Upon returning to the conference hall after various discussions, Anastasia welcomed Subaru.

In the conference room placed on the round table, only Anastasia is left with the figure. It was already a few hours ago that the facial discussion initiated here was held.

Some of them are already pulling up to the inn, while others are ready to move out of Pristella. It doesn't have to be. It's a fatigued day. You don't have to bother to keep yourself at a stiff round table and spend time in the dark of a shelter where no one else is.

"- What?

Still, she stayed here, waiting for someone to come.

I wasn't sure. However, Subaru also realized that she would have herself standing so blurred that she would be here.

Anyway, she shouldn't be comfortable anywhere right now.

"Now it's Emilia and me and Bear who are going for the Preades Surveillance Tower. Add Julius and you, and there's five of us."

"It's the same place, just different from yes? And then, unlike five, do six. I'd be in trouble if you forgot about our lovely Echidna."

Unroll the collar roll that was wrapped around your neck and spread it over the round table to make it dance. The white fox collar roll is obedient to my husband's invisible play, as if it were a doll.

It's like, isn't it?

"I didn't forget. - So it's five of us."

――――

Leaving his back at the door of the conference hall, Subaru told Anastasia, who would put up a collar roll.

The words freeze Anastasia's smile. Lost to melt a solid smile, she tilted her neck slowly.

Attract the collar roll to your mouth, with a strange face,

"Oh, that's strange. How did you know it wasn't Anna?

The more I know that clearly, the tone of Anastasia changes as before.

It's very familiar and familiar, but the key part is hollow everywhere. The voice is the same as hers. But it's still distinctly different.

"If you're willing to hide it, you act a little better. Sure, Anastasia is a realist and rationalist among the candidates to the best of my knowledge... but she didn't have as much of a human attitude or way of talking as you did."

"I kept observing Anna and I was going to be able to imitate it, but it's something that doesn't work as well as I thought. You're the second person to be spotted."

"The second?

"Al also spotted me. He called me a" witch, "and he did terrible things to me."

"Sora......"

It's odd to say, Subaru admires Al.

It's not wrong because it can't be unrelated, although it's essentially different from the anastasian echidna and the 'witch' echidna.

Should I say I have Al's insight, or something that only notices him?

He is also a summoner to the other world, just like Subaru. If the power of 'Jealous Witch' has anything to do with a different world summons, maybe Al has something to do with witches as well.

I was supposed to have to discuss that more with him, but...

"Anyway, that's fine now. The problem is, you're trying to take over Anastasia's body and make it your thing."

"I'm taking over, that's not a peaceful way to say it. At first glance, that seems to be the case with the poor nature of the current situation, but I can only say that it is regrettable that it would be misunderstood in that way. Totally, painfully."

"If you say so, it sounds like it's not true."

"In fact, it's not true even if it just seems so. I'm just borrowing Anna's body. If I hadn't, I wouldn't have had my life or hers. It's not what I meant to be sitting in Anna's bowl ever since."

"Long. I mean?

"I borrowed my body, but I couldn't get out."

I see, this collar-wrapped ecked echidna - at this time, I'll keep it as a collar donna, but I've never thought of collar donna as having nothing to do with echidna, but still, I've never felt the shadow of echidna more clearly in collar donna than I do in my current exchange.

It looks like the original place to put your words to the detour of things.

"In the meantime, shall I listen to you"

Back away from the door, Subaru creates an attitude of talking to collar Donna.

I can't keep him alive because he's lost his identity. It seems like the danger that the other side will set him up is gone for a while.

Subaru sat opposite the round table, opposite the collar Donna,

"In the first place, what's the state of borrowing your body?

"The end story is that I owe Anna my freedom by overwriting my presence. In this state, Anna's physical freedom remains my intention, and it is possible to exercise the defective Anna's gate and use magic."

"What's supposed to be flawed?

"Root digging, leaf digging. I don't blame you because I know how greedy you want to know, but when you want to know about other girls, your Emilia says you want to know about other spirits, your Beatrice cooks baked chicken, right?

"It's an extra favor, and if you're going to bake me, that's fine because we're both cute. Don't waste it, tell me."

Trying to slap the round table grumpy with his fingers, collar Donna shrugged her shoulders. Then she carefully folded the collar roll she had removed and prefaced, "Anna, right..."

"I was born with a flawed gate. I'm sure you also know that the gate is an organ that incorporates atmospheric mana and drains mana from the body, but Anastasia doesn't work well with the features of those who incorporate it. The one called chronic mana deficiency. A flawed human being who can't drain himself out of the body, you know that."

"I don't know how you can't do that, and I don't know who you think you're talking about."

"Really? That's unexpected. By the way, it is the descendants of Kensei who have defects that cannot be discharged. However, in the case of Array, the amount of intake is not normal, and the amount of intake seems to be turning towards physical ability, so there seems to be no harm."

"Reinhardt?

To what Collar Donna says, Subaru feels something unexpected and raises his eyebrows. but somewhere before speaking of it, I feel like Reinhardt had something to say.

Reinhardt can't use magic, that's all he's inferior to.

But instead, the power of the gates is strong - so is Beatrice - but when the Spirit comes near the side, it's a big deal.

"Well, even without magic, not all means of ranged attack are available, and in his case, it doesn't seem like a handful or anything like that, because I wouldn't be surprised otherwise if I did sword-pressure and slash him or anything. I'm talking about Anastasia."

"I don't mean to delude you, but it's my habit to want to talk about what I know. So I'm talking... yeah, it was about Anna's physique. Anna's gate is immature to incorporate, but it's not working. Then, magic will have to take advantage of the original mana in your body. If that runs out, it's Odd, the source of life. You wouldn't let me be impotent like that, would you? So Anna can't use magic."

"But you can't get through that if you borrow it. It doesn't change the part where there's a small amount of money from the beginning. Or do you mean to use a mana without?

――――

"Don't shut up, answer"

"That's how you have to cut your life, and if your life doesn't help you in the first place, you have to. Nevertheless, I and Anna have discussed this point. There's no reason for outsiders to talk to you. [M] You don't want me to talk about your deal with Beatrice either."

It's a star.

Subaru's relationship with Beatrice, and the contract is for Subaru and Beatrice alone.

I don't want the will of the outfield to intervene there, and I would refuse to be tried.

If Anastasia and Collar Donna claim the same conditions, Subaru will be unable to say anything.

Because that is the absolute connection between the contractor and the Spirit, which must not be otherwise encroached upon.

"This time, I borrowed Anna's body because Anna was willing, and it was an emergency. Didn't I tell you about the Bishop of the Great Crimes coming to the city hall? In order to repel it, it was necessary for me and Al to do everything in their power. Necessary and imminent choice."

"What do you mean you can't go back?"

"Yes, that's the problem."

Collar Donna punches her hand and smiles at Subaru's words of misery. Even though he looks anastasian, he's obviously a smile who can tell he's got different contents.

That's a strange thing, Subaru thinks, but soon he leaves that sentiment behind.

Finally, I'm about to cut to the bottom of this one.

Collar Donna is in front of Subaru, touching Anastasia's thin chest,

"This isn't the first time I've borrowed Anna's body in these ways. But it's not a lot of times either. Anna and I don't have a formal contractual relationship. That also meant I didn't want to burden Anna too constantly with the problem of the gate. I am proud to say that I am a low fuel consumer among spirits. If you just need to be there, you don't need a supply of mana from the contractor."

"I see. My Bear wants to hold hands three times a day."

"That's probably, like, twice. You just want to hold hands. Friendly and above all. - So I'm talking about us, but I don't have a lot of experience borrowing Anna's body in that kind of way. At best, this is like the fourth or fifth time. You know, it's almost eleven years since I've been dating her, so it's amazingly little, right?

"Come on, I don't know. Considering the bi-annual pace, isn't it so low because it's about the rate of getting the flu?

"That's tough"

Crisp, collar Donna laughs just like the witch Svalbard knows. Blurry in the meantime, I get scared that Anastasia's appearance even seems to dabble with Echidna.

The presence of Echidona leaves an indelible lump inside Subaru. Sometimes with Beatrice, and I don't want to see her again if I can.

Besides, the fact that the real Anastasia could go wrong would be a huge scratch for Julius as well. I wanted to avoid that, too.

"So what happened to Mr. Echidna, who's as nasty as the flu?

"I don't know what that flu and what they are, but I don't have much experience anyway. So I don't know how this happened to me because I have no precedent... but my consciousness became inseparable from Ana's body. As a result, Anna is sleeping behind Odd"

Collar Donna speaks with a bare gesture as if there was an odd on the inside of her touched chest, then looks at the powerless collar roll on the round table.

Collar Donna's consciousness is more than inside Anastasia. This collar roll really should be just a fox loose shell,

"It went well in the conference room, and I was going to do it by puppet-flowing guidelines."

"You've got a lot of guys who were deluded by the impact of their appearance. Besides me, there were probably a couple of guys who thought it was weird."

And I think.

Or know the artificial spirit, though Subaru alone might have gained the discomfort.

"Even if you don't notice it on the spot, you'll soon realize it's not Anastasia."

"Instead, I've only been spotted by shallow people like you and Al. Isn't this because my Ana's imitation is working?

"Ricards and kittens are a little full of themselves right now. So is Julius."

――――

To that word, the collar Donna narrows her eyes.

Subaru looks surprised at her reaction, but soon collar Donna exhales,

"After all, is Julius Anna's knight? In the course of the conversation in the conference hall, I thought it was almost certain... the power of 'bulimia' is horrible. I can take it away from my memories, which are supposed to be extraordinary."

"You... what do you want to do with Anastasia?

――

"To you, the point that you weren't willing to take over Anastasia's body, to be honest, you can't pursue it from the point where you can't help it. Just to be clear, because I don't have a basis in me to believe that when I say you're not. But..."

No Anastasian flesh shall be returned.

It is also a loss of one hope in itself for that 'best knight'.

Spiritual death of the candidate - I'm also sorry to have such a misogyny attached to the settlement of the king's election.

"You can't let that person go back, Echidna."

"Don't worry. I'm not arrogant enough to take over Anna's body and live on her behalf."

To Subaru, who stepped in ready to be fierce, collar Donna said in a disgusting manner. With a sad face, she held Anastasia's thin, small body,

"I like Anna. While uncontracted with her, spending more than a decade with her is not just a desire for observation. I don't know if this is right as a matter of fact, but I also have a sense that I feel something close to a parent or family member. I want her to be healthy and, above all, happy if she can."

――――

Pale, a collar Donna who talks as flowing as ever, but now touches the luxurious flesh of her body, Anastasia, and also seemed to have a certain affection for her appearance of mouth.

Perhaps the collar Donna also feels the same thing to Anastasia, as Pack does to Emilia, Beatrice turns to Subaru, and dear affection.

For example:

"The real reason you want to meet a wise man is"

"You know that. - I don't really think about people whose names have been eaten by 'bulimia'. I just want to know how to give Anna her body back. That's why I'm going to use you."

"Sage knows how to do that. You have assurances?"

"There is no guarantee. But it is possible if you are a wise man who foresees everything and is even said to know everything. I bet I'm most likely to get it, that's all."

Subaru has no objection to the strong will of the collar Donna.

It must be terribly self-righteous and a selfish conclusion. But the collar donna was willing to act on the purpose and to achieve it.

Then Subaru should confirm that -,

"Is it true that you know how to get to the Preades Tower of Surveillance, Sage?

"Absolutely."

"There must have been a character explanation that you have no memory of the past. How do you know how to get to a surveillance tower like that? It wouldn't make sense."

"I know what I know. I have trouble being asked for grounds there, but you do. If you're strong enough to adorn words, it's your destiny to get there."

"Fate is destiny. Who decided that?"

"The creator, I guess."

A conceited collar Donna's answer, but that answer is the worst one in Subaru.

If the creator she speaks of is about Echidna, there is also no other possibility besides that Echidna that the bad guy who burned only the destination to the surveillance tower into the memory of the demographic spirits.

In other words, in the Preades surveillance tower, something is present on the edge of Echidna.

That must have been something that stirred up an unpleasant feeling and a certain expectation of the wise man's knowledge.

"Convinced, did you?

Shut up and collar Donna asks Subaru, who draws one conclusion.

Subaru sighed deeply and long, hesitating to nod instantly.

"Convinced is not a superior thing, but for one thing, I understood. You have what you have to do and what you have to do, and that doesn't stand in the way of our purpose."

"Even so. We each have our own questions to ask the wise. So we work together to make our way under the wise. Nothing strange."

"Don't. If you say so, you'll get frigid as soon as possible"

"That's terrible."

More than this, talking to collar Donna in the shape of Anastasia is going to freak me out.

In any case, we will have a long relationship in our quest for the Preades Surveillance Tower. The Augurian dunes with surveillance towers are the eastern end of the world map - a long journey.

"I'll get used to it gradually, so give me some time as you see fit"

"I don't like it, but I don't. Honestly, if you're natsuki against such a pretty girl, it won't stick. Of which, scratchy wow. No more."

Rewind the collar roll around your neck and the collar Donna traces Anastasia's words and actions.

Well done play, though.

"We, the intonation of different. And your Kansai valve is too smooth. Compared to the Carraragi I know, there's not enough nonsense."

"Seems nonchalant?

Extremely, it's a small difference. Collar Donna, disciplined, rattles her throat to be sure of what Subaru told her, eventually exhaling as she gave up.

Even from Subaru, there's nothing to be sure of on the collar Donna. As for the physical return of Anastasia, that depends on how the wise men of the Preades Surveillance Tower get out.

However,

"What you owe Anastasia's body, Julius... don't tell everyone"

"... I don't mind that, but I'm surprised Natsuki-kun won't talk."

"I just don't want to make an extra wave rise, even at a difficult time. Besides, if the actual originator found out it was you, not Anastasia, there might be a recard or something. I'm in trouble for not going to the surveillance tower. I'm on my own."

There is a chance that Ricards and Mimi will stop by showing you who Anastasia is.

With that in mind, even excellent as a means of solving it may be necessary to refrain from travelling to the watchtower. It wants to save the victims of power, and the Subaru people are in trouble.

"At Sage's, the victims of 'bulimia', the victims of 'lust', and of course you and Anastasia, should all be solved. I won't let the Ricards complain after everything goes well. No, I won't listen to you."

"Horshin's Tales," If we end up on the books, "

"There, I agree with Mr. Horsin"

That's a good thing, Horshin, who has suspicions about his hometown.

"Well."

Around here, the discussion is over for a moment.

Worst of all, if there was an idea to abuse Anastasian flesh on collar Donna, there would be a sense of relief just because there was a chance that the last battle of Pristella was fought here.

So the inquiry was Subaru's moment of relaxation.

"Sometimes, Natsuki-kun"

"Hmm?"

Subaru looks back when he hands on the door in an attempt to head outside the conference hall.

unchanged, the collar Donna left her weight in the round table chair, adorable toward Subaru looking back, and that's what leaned her neck like Anastasia,

"- I want to ask the wise man how to put it back, unlike there are others in you?

――――

"Either way, these Pristellas have people with nappy symptoms, too? To ask how to put it back, one or so of you should take the person in the case."

With his hands on the door knob, Subaru's throat, his breath, froze.

to a subaru that strengthens his expression and opens his eyes, the collar Donna continues pale, and finally,

"What do you want? It's all up to Natsuki-kun to burn."

"Me, I..."

"Either way, why don't we stop by Mazers Border Uncle's mansion? If you're not ready to cross the Augurian dunes, you can say no to the surveillance tower. Then there's your Sleep Princess."

――――

"We don't think that's a bad thing or anything. Help them all, just to be the first of them... as luxurious as that is, even if Natsuki will forgive you."

The pale voice of the collar Donna seemed subaru to a terribly demonic temptation for some reason.

I know what she's trying to say. And even though I'm pretty sure I have myself wanting to follow that, Subaru couldn't answer instantly.

I'm sure that's...

"Subaru!"

"-!"

Called his name, Subaru looked up to his surprise.

Two of Emilia and Beatrice stand on the front of the breath-taking Subaru. They circled their eyes at Subaru's reaction and said, "What's wrong?," he tilted his neck.

"Mr. Julius... you said you were going to go to Julius, but I was worried because you weren't in the hospital room. What happened to you?

"No, anything...... look, you have a stinking face you can't take long to look at, that guy. So it's not about replacing the air, but it's about replacing the eye."

"Really? Julius, I think you look neat..."

"Emilia, do you think so, too?

"Oh, but Subaru's face is fine, I think. See, the more I look at it, the more flavorful it is, I think."

"The follow-up is bitter!

Tomorrow and Emilia will correct me, but that's also a matter of way of saying it. When the bitter Subaru drops his shoulder, now I care about Beatrice, who shuts up beside Emilia.

Beatrice frequently looked behind Subaru, at the shelter he had come after. It's like the conversation you had there, with a face you know.

"Subaru, if you're going to do anything dangerous, I might call Betty. Leaving me alone is dangerous, and Betty doesn't feel comfortable alive."

"That's always the way I feel about you. Because you're so cute, I don't care when you get exposed to candy balls by the kidnappers."

"I wonder if Betty is such a cheap spirit! Don't be ridiculous!

Beatrice gets outraged and takes on the responsibility of coming pounding. Keep going, "Wow!," Subaru walked out alongside Emilia, holding up a surprising Beatrice.

"Ha ha, let go, I might put it down! Oh, but you can't leave."

"It's hard, it's been like this for a while."

Beatrice's body is light, but oddly warm. Legend has it that children have high body temperatures, but so does Beatrice, who is still a young girl? Even though it's a spirit.

and neighbor Emilia peeks jiggly into the side of Subaru, who laughs bitterly like that. Stared at by her boss, Subaru said, "Where have you been?" And I doubt it.

"Is it unusual for me and Bear kids to be playing?

"Yeah. In the past year, that's not uncommon at all... now Svalbard thinks he looks as lost as he has been uncommon in the last year"

"- Really? Even if I can't even say everything's OK, the majority of the problems are solved, and I'm pretty much going to have a loose facial expression right now."

"If Subaru says so, I believe that too..."

Emilia lays down her long eyelashes in Subaru as she moves her cheeks. Then slowly, like including the end of a delimited word.

"If you decide what you're going to do, definitely tell me. So, how come if you don't get an answer, talk to me properly? That's all I need you to promise me."

"Promise."

"That's a promise Subaru doesn't like to keep. You're good at it, aren't you?

"Wow, Emilia, it's a rare poison for you."

Emilia gets a hard reputation for her previous commitment.

Subaru sees Emilia smiling thinly offering her pinky finger and restocking Beatrice on her shoulder all at once, she says, "I don't know what I'm gonna do!," he wrapped his pinky finger around his pinky finger, holding a noisy toddler.

"Finger-cutting, if you're lying, a thousand needles."

"Fingers, cut"

My fingers go away.

Emilia laughed at Subaru as she stood her severed finger,

"Subaru, now how many totaling needles?

"Well, I don't think I've got as many as 10,000 copies."

"So let's not really go as far as 10,000 copies, shall we?

Subaru responds to Emilia's prayerful words with few words: "Oh".

To that answer, I feel absolutely at ease - for God's sake, Emilia won't be able to do it. In the first place, I didn't mean to make you promise. She shouldn't either.

So the promise now is a commandment for Subaru.

"- The luxury of it, even if Natsuki-kun will forgive you."

Last, the temptation of collar Donna resuscitates in the back of his brain.

That much luxury, Subaru will forgive, will forgive?

Who will forgive Subaru for being sweet about it?

"I'll give you the answer. - By the time you get back to the mansion, never."

Still, is that supposed to be an asshole with the same name as that 'witch'?

Really, he's good at riding the weakest parts of people.

"Totally, hateful..."

"Did you just say something?

"No, this way of taking charge, Bear kid's ass says you can tap all you want, touch all you want."

"It's a ginger! Or maybe I'll let you go! Put it down! Slowly and gently, like I love flowers!

"Ha-ha-ha"

"Stop slapping your ass with laughter -!!"

With the noisy Beatrice on his shoulder, Subaru follows a thin back that goes ahead. Emilia with a face that she looks back on and hopes to mix.

Even though this is all the blessing, this is all the salvation.

I wish the other girl was here, and I'm stunned by my 'greed' to think so.

Natsuki Subaru's battle in Watergate City goes down the curtain.

- Quiet now for the next, story leading to the sand tower.
