Other World Assassin Life of a Man who was a Shut-in Chapter 89

Chapter 89 Intuition

Ok, now that the request has been completed, it’s time for me to head to Zinnia.

Thus I walked in Zinnia's direction.

A few minutes later, I arrived at Zinnia.
I swiftly opened the doors and entered, when,

[Ah, see that Okaa-san! Yuuma-san really did come back!]

[Ho, it really did take Yuma just a single day to make the round trip, he certainly is strange….]

As soon as I opened the door and entered inside, I heard such a conversation. Apparently Sari and Saria-san seemed to be talking about me. Rather just what are you exactly trying to say.

Since I was curious about what they were saying, I asked them about it,

[Well in short, this child suddenly sad that Yuma-san would be coming back in a while. When I asked why she thought so, then she just said that it was her intuition]

I see, then……
And then Saria-san continued with the story,

[Well~ her intuition has always been spot on in the past, but to think that someone could really go to the Golem mountains and be back home in just one day, I really can’t believe it.]

[That’s what happened Yuuma-san! Okaa-san did not believe me at all!]

Hmm, well Saria-san's reaction is correct after all.
Even I wouldn’t believe it so easily.

[We had been going at it since this morning, but you came back just in time. Truly, even now I still cannot believe that you completed the full round trip to golem mountain range in just a day.]

Saria-san said while still in shock.

And also Sari yo, I am really glad that you have such great intuition, but is it fine to even go against your mother to prove your prowess? Well~ you are cute so I guess its fine. [1]

{TLN: she is cute. That’s the end. End of story.}

Looking at Sari’s face, Saria-chan,

[Fufuu~, is this a woman’s intuition going on overdrive? Or is it maybe, the power of love?]

Said Saria-san to Sari while going *Nya nya* and grinning.

{EN: could…could someone please explain to this ignoramus what that sfx is for?}

Then Sari who had a resolute face changed completely, her face became slowly dyed in red, her face had mixture of shyness, embarra.s.sment and even some anger mixed in.

[O-O-O- Okaa-san YOU! T-to Call it L-love!]

[Fufu~, Are you really saying those words with that expression on your face. Ok then, I'll go back and make dinner now, and let the young couple have some time alone.]

And then Saria-san, returned to the kitchen while grinning.

And the only ones left now were, Sari who was red as a tomato and myself.
Hmm, I wonder if this is good time to call out to her. While I was thinking about how to call her,

Sari who couldn’t endure the silence anymore, spoke up first.

[Th-then, I-I am going to go prepare dinner as well! Yuuma-san, see you at dinner time!]

[Ok, good luck on the preparation. I will be looking forward to dinner]

Then immediately Sari ran to the kitchen. Or so I thought when she slowly made her back to where I was. It seemed like she had something she wanted to say to me.

[Um yes, there was something that I forgot to tell you because of Okaa-san]

And there Sari raised her face, looked at me in the eye and with a huge smile on her reddening face,

[Yuuma-san Welcome Home! I am super happy that you came back home safely!]

Ha ha, I get it now.

Just to tell me this, you overcame your embarra.s.sment and came back. Yup, this is definitely Sari-like.

Well, it would be really shameful if I don’t say something back to Sari. Well~ even if you tell me welcome home, there is only one thing that I can say in this situation.

[Ahh, I am home Sari]

{EN: let me know if I should just change it to 'Ā'}

＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝

A few minutes later,
I had returned to my room and laid down on the bed to wait until dinner time.

Currently I am checking my status board while lying on the bed. But,

[Yup, as expected even though those golems were mob characters, they did not help in raising my level.]

Well~ it can’t be helped. I wasn’t able to encounter any strong monsters on this escort request which might actually be a good thing. Speaking of those monsters which I already took down, they were two goblins and three golems. But as expected they did not help raise my level in any way.

[Yeah, so I guess the best way to increase my level is to go after the golden rabbitsu. Then I guess I will be going back to the Gordo forest for a while from tomorrow onwards.]

Well raising levels is really fun so it’s fine.

After that, I spent several minutes not doing anything, and when I looked outside the window it was already sunset.
It’s almost time for dinner. And so I got up from the bed, left the room and went towards the dining room.

When I arrived at the dining room I heard a familiar voice call out to me.

[Oi! you really did come back! Oi Yuuma, over here!]

[Aniki, over here]

…….hmm?

I just heard a voice other than Iguru just now.
Moreover, it's a voice that I heard quite recently.

I moved over to where Iguru was to confirm the ident.i.ty of the second voice. And then, the one who appeared in my sight was,

[You, really did move here Marubuta]

[Yes! since I was invited over by my Aniki I definitely couldn’t refuse!]

Hhmm, if my memory serves me right, then it was Sari, not me, who invited Marubuta. Well~ its fine I guess. Sari would be happy with one more guest as well.

[Oh yeah, I heard all about it Aniki. That you went on an escort request to the golem mountain range! But it’s really amazing that Aniki came back in just a day! Really Amazing! It’s MONSTROUS!]

Oi Marubuta, stop it with the monster.

[But Yuuma yo, didn’t you say that it might take a few days? And Sari-chan's friend, Risa was it, is she really fine?]

[Aa, Th-there was no problem at all. We talked all the way while I was running. Rather I felt that she was quite pleased with it.]

When I said so, both Iguru and Marubuta made a puzzled face.

[Are you for real, that is amazing…...]

[Yeah I think so too. To think that she thought it was pleasant while being a woman…..]

Yup, Risa was definitely gutsy.

Or is there some underlying meaning? It is probably the difference in carrying.

Risa was probably fine because I had her in a princess carry, but I brought the two of these in a normal carry. Perhaps Marubuta and Iguru would also be fine if they were held in a princess carry as well, the moment I thought about such things, a sudden chill came over me.

STOP, it will be painful to think about this any further.
The scenery painted in my mind was absolutely horrible…..

[Oi Yuuma what happened? Your face turned really pale all of a sudden.]

[Ah, ahh…….I'm fine. I think it might wear off if took a rest for a while.]

[Aniki! Are you really well?]

[Ah, ahh…...I'm fine. I’m sorry for making the two of you worry and thank you as well, but your face is seriously too close, Marubuta-kun.]

When I said so, Marubuta's face receded obediently. Thanks a lot. If his face was any closer then I might have actually suffered a mental breakdown and might have needed a doctor as well. While goofing off the three of us continued to talk, when Sari brought us three our dinner.

Yup, today's food is just as delicious as ever. Also, Sari returned to the kitchen as soon as she placed the dinner on the table. She seems to be really busy.

Well, I guess she doesn’t have enough time to talk and I'm also at my limit! LET'S START EATING! 　

And then the three of us started having our dinner without a single word.

A few minutes later, the dinner that was placed in front of the three of us had beautifully disappeared. Marubuta burped with a was swollen belly seeming satisfied.

[It was delicious! It was really delicious! It was completely different from the inn that I stayed at previously!]

Yeah, it is, it really is.

Dinner made by Sari really is the best!

After that, we were satisfied and drowsy so we went back to our respective rooms.

I also got up and up the stairs to return to my room.

For some reason Marubuta was tagging along with me. And when I reached the door to my room, Marubuta,

[Oh, Aniki’s room seems to be right in front of my room! Then please take care of me from now on!]

[Ah, I shall depend on you as well.]

With that exchange, Marubuta and I go back to our respective rooms.
I lay back down on my bed as usual.

[Fuu~, Today is over already~]

But, really, I didn't expect Marubuta to come to Zinnia.
It seems that it will get noisier from now on.

Anyways, my belly is completely full and I am quite drowsy, I guess I will go to sleep now….

{TLN: And I went to bed as well. No really I truly did.}
