Chapter 75- Reluctance
Kuroda Ryunosuke……..
There is no doubt about it, Minarisu-san has lived for hundreds of years, and the only other person who had the same black eyes and black hair as me was a j.a.panese person……..
“Hmm, from the reaction on your face, it seems that you recognize the name Kuroda Ryunosuke, am I wrong?”
“........Yeah. The man that you mentioned to me, Minarisu-san, Kuroda Ryunosuke, he’s probably from the same place as I am. I would like to learn more about this from you, Minarisu-san, but how long ago has it been since you meet Kuroda-san?” If by any chance Kuroda-san is still alive, but my expectations were quickly understood to be useless. “Yes, it has been around 150 years since I met Kuroda-san, ja~” “150 Years, huh? Then, Kuroda-san has already….” “Ah, well, I haven’t confirmed it yet with my own eyes, but he seems to have already pa.s.sed on.” Is that so, well~, that’s too bad. A normal human cannot live more than a 150 years after all. “Minarisu-san, what kind of person was Kuroda-san?” “Kuroda, huh? He was quite a funny guy, he always used to make the people around him laugh, and was a good person to hang-out with, he was always surrounded by a lot of people. There was even a time when Kuroda was invited as a guest to the Elf village, no~. Even the Elves who don’t like outsiders, and never had friendly relations with others, were still pulled in by his charm and considered him as one of them as well.” “I see. So, Kuroda-san was a person with a bright personality?” “Thats right, ja~. But, to me, he really seemed like he was trying to find someplace to go back to.” “Someplace to go back to, you say?” “That guy, when he was staying in the Elf village there was an opportunity for him to drink alcohol, and even though it was low content sake, it seems he was very weak to alcohol. When he was drunk, he started to complain saying something like….,I want to return to j.a.pan….,or something.” “........Return to j.a.pan….” “That’s what he said. I still didn’t know at the time that Kuroda was not a person of this world, I just brushed it off thinking that he wanted to return to his hometown that was quite far away. It was several decades later that I learned that j.a.pan was a place where you and Kuroda are actually from, isn’t that right, ja~?” “Yes, that’s the name of the country that we are from.” But then, doesn’t that mean that Kuroda-san died in this world still thinking of returning to j.a.pan? If that was truly the case, then that is quite sad…. Minarisu-san, who noticed the expressions on my face said, “Hey, Yuma, don’t worry too much. Kuroda had a smile on his face even until the end. Do you understand why?” “N-no, I don’t understand it.” “Because he had a family. He fell in love with an adventurer, got married to her, and even had kids. In his last moments, he looked at his family and smiled with his last breath. Maybe all his regrets about his previous home was gone, or maybe it wasn’t, that I do not know. He seemed to be happy with what he did with his life.” “........Is that so? Then, that’s good.” Minarisu-san words pulled me out of my thoughts, and it calmed my heart. That’s right, Kuroda-san was able to find happiness in this world. Kuroda-san was in the same circ.u.mstances as me. I will not repeat the same mistakes that has already been done, that’s what I sincerely thought. “And so, Yuma, what will you do, ja~” “Me?” “Yuma, you came from the same world as Kuroda, right, ja~? Then, do you also wish to return to your previous world as well?” Do I wish to return to my previous world? When I asked myself that, I was able to decide on my answer without thinking for even a second, “......I, don’t wish to return to my previous world. Since I have made some important companions in this world as well, but….” “There is still some reluctance, isn’t that right?” Hmm, as expected of a Ba-san who has lived for a several hundred years. She was able to exactly understand what I was thinking, “I was a middle aged man with parents in my previous world, I think I caused quite a lot of trouble to them, even though I cannot still confirm that.” Minarisu-san was quietly listening to the story of my previous life. “That’s why I really want to apologize for my behaviour to them, and also tell them that I am doing quite fine where I am right now.” That’s when Minarisu-san said, “Is that so? I understand the reason that you would want to do that, but if you really wish to, that would require a tremendous amount of power to get the job done, perhaps it might be impossible to achieve that goal even with the help of all kinds of Magic spells that exist in this world.” “That’s quite possible.” I made a face as if to have completely given up. “It’s still too early to give up, zo~. I don’t know if there really exists such a magic spell, but just if, I think that you should follow the path until the end so that you have no regrets.” The sliver of hope that I had in my heart was sinking, but when I heard that, Impossible, there is no way such a magic would exist, right? “Minarisu-san, is there such a magic?” “Kodai Maho-Ancient Spell, those are probably the only ones that could accomplish what you seek, and that is the name of the magic.” “....Kodai Maho-Ancient Spell? ” “Yes, it is not the same kind of magic that is used in this era. According to records, it was said that it was necessary to have the Magical power of more than a dozen or so High Ranked Magician’s to activate it for the minimum requirements, but if the effect of the magic is not activated properly, it’s extremely dangerous, and it’s backlash is just as bad!......it’s might is no less than that of G.o.d’s.” The last part seems a little off. “Well~, I doubt that there exists such magic in this era, but this is at least something. Perhaps, it might be possible to fulfill your intentions with this magic.” “That may be so. By the way, Minarisu-san, what is the Magical Capacity of High Ranked Magicians in this world?” “Probably around 150~200 is the average, ja~” Huh? That’s less than what I expected. Then, by going by what she said, does that not mean that I have more than three times the mana pool of an High Ranked Magician? If it’s just for activation, then I guess I won’t have any problems with it. Then, I guess for now, increasing my level is the top priority. “I see. I will try to increase my level accordingly, along with my MP. Thank you very much for such valuable information, Minarisu-san.” Saying so, I bowed toward Minarisu-san. “Good, good, it’s a good thing for the elderly to help the young ones.” Saying so, Minarisu-san looked at me with a proud face. It was as if her face was saying ‘How was that’ face. I guess Minarisu-san is that kind of a person, but her appearance right now is so lovely that it suits her girly looks. Loli-Baba is definitely Scary! “Then, I will excuse myself and have dinner. How about you, Minarisu-san?” “No, I shall refrain from doing so today. Since I would be in a constant state of casting illusions. Also, call me Minarisu when I am under illusion. Please make sure to not call me Minarisu as much as possible.” “Understood. Then, I shall excuse myself now.” And so, I left Minarisu-san’s room. I then headed downstairs to have dinner with Iguru as usual, when I heard, “Hey, Yuma, I heard a rumor that a cute little girl moved into the room next to yours! Is that really true!?” “A, Ah, certainly, her face is extremely cute.” “So then, it was actually TRUE! This is bad, if you see her next time when i'm with you, make sure to call her!” “Iguru, stop it with those things, leave her alone.” “N? What’s wrong, Yuma? Ah! Have you by any chance already fallen for her!? Is that fine, is that really fine? I’ll tell on you to Sari-chan, zo~” Oh s.h.i.+t, that’s really bad Iguru-kun. “No, there’s nothing like that. Forget what I just said, and don't worry about it. It would be better for you to call out. If it’s you, you might just have a chance.” “OO! Then, as soon as dinner is completed, I shall immediately go over there and say h.e.l.lO!” And so, when Iguru finished his dinner, he immediately ran up the stairs to the next floor. That man, he really is faithful to his urges. I finished my dinner and was going up the stairs to return to my room. “Oh~” I could see the unsettling figure of a blackened Iguru. But, judging by his looks, he seems to have been burned by fire, no, it’s probably thunder. I had expected this from her Adventurer name , but as expected, the attribute that Minarisu-san is well versed in, is Lightning. Ohh, I guess it would be wrong to leave Iguru lying right here as he is. I used Heal on Iguru to the extent that he would be able to move, and soon, Iguru woke up. “Yo, you finally seem to have noticed Iguru. If you keeping lying down there, than that would be inconvenient to the other guests, so I suggest that you return to your room.” “Oi, Yuma, What just happened? What’s up with that lightning magic user? That person, that’s definitely Minarisu-san, right! Why is a person of that caliber staying at a place like this?” Ho, you noticed that it was Minarisu-san already, Iguru-kun, you're quite observant. “Hey~ hey. Even I don’t understand why yet. Well~, we will find out sooner or later anyway, so it would be better for you not to behave rudely around that person from now on, understood?” “A, I know. Haa~, her looks are sooo cute, but the fact that she is a Baba is a let down……..” Are you alright, Iguru? If by any chance Minarisu-san heard what you just said, then you will black out again. “Well~, for the time being, I am going to go back to my room, see ya later, Yuma.” And saying so, Iguru left to go back to his room. “Ah, I completely forgot. Thank you very much for the Healing Magic, if you did not come by, then I wouldn’t be able to move for how long, I don’t know.” Iguru properly returned to his room this time. Well, a lot of thing’s happened today as well. I guess it’s time I returned to my room as well and head to bed, so I opened the door to my room, and lied down on the bed as usual. “Fuu~, due to the things that happened today, I am really tired today as well.” The clean-up operation of the Great Invasion, the encounter with Minarisu-san, the story about Kuroda-san who is a j.a.panese person such as myself, and finally, Kodai Maho-Ancient Spell. “Minarisu-san was hinting at the fact that it existed, but is it worth searching for it I wonder?” Well~, I won’t be able to use it even if I were to obtain it right now. So, for now, let’s consider raising my level to be the highest of priority. The immediate goal as of now is to have the strength to view Minarisu-san’s Status, and then catch up, and surpa.s.s her. It’s better for me to sleep for now and start this tomorrow. That day, I saw a dream in which I lived in j.a.pan after a long time, a dream in which I had a good time with my family……..
