Other World Assassin Life of a Man who was a Shut-in Chapter 76

Fuu~, it’s morning already.

I never expected that I would dream about the time I was in j.a.pan.

From the time I have come into this world, I had never dreamed about j.a.pan at all. It’s probably because I talked with Minarisu-san about Kuroda-san that I remembered j.a.pan.

However, I really did enjoy my time there, I was still surrounded by my family in those happy days while chatting away happily. Although it’s impossible, since I was never around for those days, but that one time, I really did feel like I was a part of my family….

“.........STOP it, those days are already over. No matter how much I regret it now, I can’t go back in time.”

Alright, it’s almost time to wake up anyway.

I got up from my bed as usual, and started my light stretches. Ok, there doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with my body today as well.

And before Sari arrives, I should wear my clothes, and groom myself a bit. Then, all preparations are done, let’s take a breather.

“Yuma-san, are you up? It’s almost time for breakfast, please come down and have something to eat….”

Sari’s timing is a little too on the nose, it’s absolutely perfect as usual, so I walked to the door and opened it.

“Good morning, Sari, i'm sorry to have to make you wake me up every morning.”

And then, I faced Sari.Yup, Sari is cute today as usual, and then, I concentrated on Sari’s face. Suddenly, Sari’s face started turning red. Ooops! Since her face was really cute, I stared too much! I'll apologize right now….

Ooops! Since her face was really cute, I stared too much! I'll apologize right now….

“Sorry, Sari, you were just too cute, so I couldn't help but stare.”

“Cu-cute? Th-Thank you very much!”

And then, in just a few seconds, Sari’s face turned beet red.

Ah, did she just thank me? Isn’t she angry at me for staring?

“Sari, did you not get angry because I was staring at you too much?”

“Eh? I’m definitely not angry at you. Actually, I feel even better since Yuma-san called me cute.”

“Then, why do you have your head down?”

“Yuma-san……..you didn’t notice?”

Notice? What did I miss?

Did something strange happen to me or something?

I’m sure I am wearing my clothes properly, so there’s no problem with that.

“Yuma-san, you have a really lonely face today. Did something happen?”

Me….having a lonely face? I don’t really have any intentions of making such a face, but thinking about it won’t help right.

“Since how long did I have that face?”

“Yes, it’s been since yesterday night’s dinner.”

Oi oi, Sari’s intuition is a little too spot on.

Won’t she be able figure out anything just by that intuition?

“A, actually, I had a dream about being in my hometown, so that made me a little homesick.”

Even if I say that it won’t happen just to rea.s.sure Sari, Sari still refuses to move. Oh? Well, I guess I won’t get anywhere worrying about that for now. And so, I put my hand lightly on Sari’s head.

“Sari, it is certainly true that I feel quite homesick and a little bit lonely, but occasionally, I wouldn’t have been able to bear it alone, but now, I have Sari and everyone else. So, it will be fine.”

“Understood, but please don’t hesitate to tell me if you're ever lonely again. Yuma-san still has Me, Mother, Risa, Iguru, and all those around you.”

“Ah, understood. Then, at that time, I will not hold back, and I will rely on you for help.”

“It’s a promise. Then, I shall get a move on, I still have to prepare breakfast. Yuma-san, make sure to come down as soon as possible.”

While saying so, Sari headed toward the dining hall.

But, to have said all those things to Sari. If I have to think about it myself, that dream has certainly influenced me more than I thought.

“Then, this is the last time, I can’t make Sari worry about me any longer. Alright, I should put a smile on these cheeks of mine.”

And so, with considerable force in my hands, I slapped my cheeks to pour some spirit into myself, and then,

“OWWWW!!!!!”

I completely messed up, I completely forgot that my level rose again and my power is still stabilizing, but I feel fine after that! Although this is a secret After that, Minarisu-san said, “SHUT UP!”, and i tasted the electrocution first hand.

After that, I was eating breakfast as usual with Iguru at the dining hall.

“Hey, Yuma, awhile ago, I heard you screaming, but are you ok? By any chance did you also try to lay your hands on Minarisu-san and got some Electrocution as a reward?”

“NO! I was trying to imbue spirit into myself and went a little too far with slapping myself with a little more force than required.”

“HAHA! Are you for REAL!? So, you also had a thing for that, huh!”

While saying so, Iguru pointed at me, and started laughing.

Yes, he looks really ugly when he laughs. I have to ask Minarisu-san for help to let him enjoy another round of Electrocution again.

And then, I stared at Iguru.

“O, Oi, you're making quite a scary face, Yuma. I apologize for laughing, so let me off the hook! I’m really sorry.”

“Fuuu~, then fine, i’ll let it be.”

“Thank G.o.d, I wouldn’t have known what you would have done to get revenge on me for that.”

And so, we chatted on while we had our breakfast. Yup, this is really tasty. As I thought, the breakfast that Sari makes is truly the best. I don’t really feel like even starting my day if I don’t have my regular dose of this food.

“Ah, by the way Yuma, are you going to go to the guild today? Or would you rather go with me? We still have to receive our rewards for the clean-up operation.”

Ah, come to think of it, there was still the reward for the clean-up operation. I completely forgot about that, but if I remember properly, I certainly did take down a lot of monsters, but it won’t be that much since everyone will be getting a share. Well~, let’s  get whatever has been given.

“That’s right. Ok i have decided that i shall go with you to the guild.”

“Alright then, let’s quickly have some breakfast and be on our way to the guild.”

A few minutes later, Me and Iguru quickly completed our breakfast, and left Zinnia while heading toward the guild. Fumu, the streets are crowded as usual. While I was thinking about that, I looked at the people where I could see that a certain group of people with the same clothes were spread out together.

“Hey, Iguru, doesn’t it look like there is quite a lot of people with some strange clothes on? It’s as if….”

It’s look’s like the same as the uniforms from my world.

“Ah, I guess that’s probably the students from the Magic Academy, I don’t know the exact details, there would usually be a lot of them around this time of year.”

Ho? I can understand it now, there are certainly a lot of them with if you observe closely.

That’s right, speaking of the Magic Academy, would they know something about the Kodai Mago-Ancient Spell? I should go ask once I am free. Fortunately, I am a little familiar with Albert-san from the Magic Academy.

When I was thinking about that, we arrived safely at the guild, and opened the doors to enter inside. There were some people inside the guild,

“Alright Yuma, let’s quickly collect the rewards for the Clean-up operation.”

“That right.”

And so, we walked toward Meru-san’s counter, when I heard,

“Ara, welcome Yuma-kun, Iguru-kun. What have you come here for today?”

“h.e.l.lo Meru-chan, I came here today along with Yuma-san to pick up the rewards for the clean-up operation.”

“Ah, come to think of it, you two are the leading pair of hunter’s in the Extermination Strategy this time, the Guild Master praised you quite a few times. Then, please wait for a little while, i’ll go fetch the reward.”

Saying so, Meru-san walked to the back.

I turned around thinking that I was free for a little while.

“Iguru, look over there, there doesn’t seem to be any prohibitions on the entry to the three Forests.”

“Oh, that seems to be true. Then, I can finally start hunting in the Ogasu (Ogre) Forest again.”

“Isn’t that a good thing? Even I wished to go to the Gordo Forest today as well.”

While we were talking about such things,

“Oh, sorry to have kept you waiting. Yes, then here is the Gold coin that is remuneration for your work.”

Fumu, it’s a lot more than expected.

Its seems that even Iguru thought the same thing.

“Well~, this much is more than enough for me anyway!”

“That may be so. I guess it’s a good thing that there were two c.o.c.katrices.”

I see.

“Alright then, I guess the job here is done. Ok Yuma, I am going to go find a request to take down some monster’s over at Ogasu (Ogre) Forest, what will you do?”

“Ah, i'll see if there are any requests to be completed over at Gordo Forest.”

Both of us headed toward the bulletin board to look for a request, and then, I moved to the board that had requests from the Gordo Forest.

I then found a quest that made me quite anxious.

“A-Rank Request, Golden Rabbitsu Materials collection.”

When I said that out loud,

“Yuma, I think it’s better to not take up that request.”

“What’s wrong?”

“The monster in that request, Golden Rabbitsu. The strength it possesses is really not that much to worry about, perhaps if it fought with a simple goblin, it would still lose.”

Yeah, that certainly seems quite weak. However, I don’t think that’s the end of the explanation.
If it was such a weak monster, then it wouldn’t be in the range of an A-Rank Request.

“Here is the problem though, this monster is extremely cowardly, which makes it a lot more troublesome to deal with. Although I don’t wish to say this, but I can’t help but tell you about it. It’s probably even faster than you are. Well~, I guess you will understand if I have already explained this much, but this monster right here is unusually really hard to take down.

I get it now, as expected of an A-Rank.Well~, I would probably able to take it down, but I wouldn’t wish to take on such a troublesome request, so i’ll stop it here for that one.

“Well~, if you can defeat it, the material you obtain from it is quite expensive, and the experience you earn from it is quite messed up as well, but the benefits of taking it down are just as good.”

I had decided right then that I would accept this request.

“Iguru-kun, I will accept this request and make sure to complete it.”

“Are you for REAL!? Even after what I just explained to you?”

“Of course, but sometimes there’s no other choice than to be reckless, you have to challenge yourself sometimes. Then, im off to Gordo Forest as soon as I accept this request.”

And so, I brought the request, and walked over to where Meru-san was.

“Meru-san, I have decided to take this request today.”

When I handed over the request, Meru-san was quite surprised,

“Yuma-kun, are you sure? There has been no one recently who was able to complete this request, and this one is super difficult as well. Even then, will you be able to do it?”

“Of course!”

“Th-that’s right. I guess that it would be better to try it. Well~, i'll allow it. Yuma, can you stop this quest if you are unable to complete this? Good Luck!”

“Yes, I will definitely complete it.”

Saying so to Meru-san, I left the guild quickly. Hehe, this will definitely fetch quite a lot of experience. Why? That’s because I have the Sign Isolation skill to help complete this request.

While I was indulging myself in those fantasies, I started walking toward the Gordo forest.
