Other World Assassin Life of a Man who was a Shut-in Chapter 82

A few minutes after leaving Risa’s shop, I was able to arrive safely at Zinnia.

When I opened the door and entered, I heard,

“Ah, Yuma-san, welcome home.”

Saying so, Sari came up to me with a dazzling smile on her face. Well~, I guess this is how it feels to have someone waiting for you when you return home. In my previous world, there is no one to welcome me back, it might have been because I am a NEET though.

“Yeah, i'm home Sari.”

Saying so to Sari, I started to gently stroke her head as usual. When I stroked her head, Sari looked really happy, she is very cute so I guess it’s fine.

Oops, I should probably tell her about the Nomination Request that Risa requested me of. I probably won’t be able to return home in just a day.

“Sari, I have something I need to talk to you about, is it fine right now?”

Sari probably might still have to make dinner, so I need to confirm it before I start.

“Yes, it’s fine! What did you wish to tell me?”

“Well~, it's not really that big of a deal, I just wanted you to know that I will be leaving the inn the day after tomorrow.”

When I was about to speak, her face was gleaming with happiness, but when I completed what I said, her face sunk. Oi, Oi, what did I do!?

While I was wondering about what I did,

“Ah, Yuma-san, so you will be leaving Zinnia then? Di-Did, I do something rude or make a mistake somewhere........?”

Ah, I understand now.

Did Sari think that I was leaving Zinnia altogether?

I guess I didn't word that properly.

I smiled to Sari to make myself calm down a little bit.

“Sari, It’s fine. I also think that Zinnia is the best, there is no reason for me to leave at all. I said that I would leave my accommodation the day after tomorrow beacause I accepted a Nomination Request, that's why I said I would be leaving the inn. There is no reason for Sari to feel depressed.”

I continued to stroke Sari’s head while saying that.

Sari made an embarra.s.sed face after realizing her mistake.

“I-I, seem to have jumped to conclusions, i'm sorry!”

“It’s not a problem. It just shows how much you really care about me.”

When I said so, Sari finally seemed to have regained her calm.

“By the way, Sari, have you heard? The one who requested my Nominated Request is Risa, you know.”

When I said that, Sari finally seemed to have remembered something.

“Ah, come to think of it, Risa did say that she was going to request Yuma-san to help her find some Ore at the Golem Mountains Range. ”

“That’s right.”

“I see, then it would probably require about six- nine days worth of food, right? Yuma-san, if you're free tomorrow, why don’t you go out with me to buy groceries?”

Oh, that would certainly help.

Honestly, I really don’t know where I would be able to buy food at all.

“Thanks a lot, I shall accompany you then Sari.”

When I said that, Sari suddenly made a ‘guts’ pose.

“Understood. Then, we shall go together after you’ve had your breakfast.”

Yup, Sari is a really good girl.

We spoke for a little while longer before I returned to my room, and laid down on the bed as usual, I was thinking about resting until dinner time.

“Huuu, then i shall relax until it is dinner time.”

And so, I closed my eyes for a few hours.

Suddenly, I woke up.

“Oops, I seem to have fallen asleep.”

I looked outside through the window and it was already dark, did I sleep too long?

While thinking so, I hurried to the dining hall.

I wonder if I am late? The dining hall was already packed.

I still have that guy though so i’m alright.

When I was thinking that,

“Oh, Yuma, over here! I already saved you a seat.”

Found him, it’s the usual Iguru-san!

Every single time, I really appreciate Iguru.

And so, I went to the seat opposite of Iguru and sat down.

“Yo, Iguru, sorry to have kept you waiting.”

“It’s alright. It’s much more fun to eat together with someone than to eat all alone. ”

Ah, then it’s fine, it’s very nice to be able to express things this way.

I wonder if this is what being a friend means.

Ohh, that’s right, I should probably tell Iguru about the Nomination Request.

I should tell him that I will be out for a few days.

“Iguru, I know this is sudden, but I will be going out for a few days the day after tomorrow. I'm really sorry about that, so you don’t have to hold a table for me for a few days.”

“Ohh~, is it a Escort Request?”

“Ah, a friend of Sari’s named Risa asked me for a Nomination Request. It’s a request to accompany her to the Golem Mountains Range and back.”

When I said so, Sari’s face steeled for some reason.

“Golem Mountains range, huh? I only have bad memories of that place.”

“What happened?”

“Yuma, you might know this, but there is a troublesome monster there called a Golem, it’s body is completely made of stone with no visible weak points on its body. It was really a miracle that I had escaped from that place without dying, and it broke my bow as well. I struggled to escape from there.”

I get it now, the weapon that Iguru uses is the Bow.

Well, looking at the compatibility. you can easily see which would win.

“By the way, Yuma, will you be alight? I did see you fight in the Stone forest, but isn’t your primary weapon a knife? Won’t it break?”

Apparently, Iguru seems to really care about my well being.

“Ah, I did hear about it from Meru-san, but it seems to be quite weak against magic attacks. It won’t be a problem then since I can use magic as well.”

Iguru became completely surprised after hearing that.

“Are you for real? You can use magic attacks as well, you are someone who goes against the impossible. Haa~, I feel stupid for worrying about you now.”

There is no way that would be true, it wouldn’t make me happy for them to worry about me.

“No, thank you very much for worrying about me. It’s fine though, I will make sure to take care of that Golem in your stead.”

Well~, I would have to encounter it first.

While I was talking with Iguru for a while, Sari came over.

“Yuma-san, Iguru-san, sorry to have kept you waiting!”

Apparently, it was really crowded during dinner time.

And so, Sari brought out the dishes and then quickly returned to the kitchen, she looked really busy.

It’s time to eat dinner quickly so that I can get some shut eye. Yup, this is the best. The only thing that I feel bad about going on the request is that I won't be able to eat Sari's food.

I don’t think time pa.s.sess in my Item Box from my experience so far, so I guess it would be possible to keep Sari’s cooking. I could put {Dinner} into my Item Box to store it. Well, that would put quite the burden on Sari, so I can’t really impose on her.

“Oi, Yuma, aren’t you gonna eat that? I can’t wait anymore.”

Oops, it seems that I must have kept Iguru waiting.

“Sorry, my bad, I was just a little lost in thought. Alright, thank you for the food.”

“ALRIGHT!”

After that, Me and Iguru completely cleaned out the plates at quite the amazing speed as usual.

They say that it would be better to eat dinner slowly, but of course, that is impossible.

Once you get a bit of this, your hands won’t stop moving.

“Fuu~, i’m completely filled, Sari’s food is as delicious as usual.”

“Ah, absolutely.”

After that, I talked for a little longer with Iguru before I parted.

And then, I returned to my room and laid down on my bed.

“Fuu~, I guess it’s safe to say that today was a good day.”

As I was lying down on the bed, I was thinking about tomorrow’s schedule.

First, I am going out with Sari to buy groceries which will probably finish in late afternoon.

After that, it’s testing my magic skills in the Gordo forest, I haven’t had many opportunities to use it recently. I guess this is fine, but if I can’t do it, I can’t help out with the subjugation request over there. This time, Risa will be coming along as well, if I tried something new that failed, it would put her in danger.

“Alright, tomorrow’s schedule has been fixed.”

I guess it’s fine to sleep for now. To tell the truth, I have been drowsy for quite awhile. I was already at my limit when I lied down on the bed with a full stomach.

I closed my eyes, and quickly fell asleep……..
