137 Episode 137: Reunion is a scent of another world.txt




'Phew. ....... Somehow it seems to have worked out. It's been a while since I've seen one, so I was a little nervous, but I'm still glad I got the stone. I'm not sure if I would have failed without them.

 Yumegen's words didn't fall well into my ears.
 The mirror has been restored to its original size, and on the other side, everyone's faces are lined up on the other side, even though they've only been away for a little over a month, but they've already been around for a long time - everyone's faces are lined up as if they've been away for years.

'Huh~. It's been a long time since I've used my magic with all my might~! I feel like I've just turned the old engine on its head!

 Serene, who has finished using her magic, stretches out with a goofy smile.
 Her complexion also seems to be somewhat better ......?

It's been about 70 years since I last used a spirit stone.
You know. I just want to thank you, Ayase-san. I mean, ......, Ayase-san, what's up?

 I'm surprised when they point the water at me.
 No, I'm not surprised.

"Yeah, yeah? What is it?
It's okay. The mirror's perfectly alright. You can go to ...... and show your face.

 That's right.
 That's right!
 The mirror got fixed.

 I checked my appearance for some reason.
 I'm wearing my normal clothes as usual, bought at UniXero.
 When I go over there, I change into clothes that fit the other world, but I don't need to worry about that now.
 I don't need any luggage.
 We don't need souvenirs either.

 Everyone's appearance in the mirror.
 My heart leaps with a soaring heart.
 Deanna's hands are squeezed in front of her chest and she's looking at me.
 Marina is bouncing around and calling me with her mouth wide open, bouncing and bouncing.
 Rebecca is walking around left and right, glancing at the mirror.
 Orica, Etowah, Elepippi, Aeon, Shamash, Hetty.
 They are all waiting for me to come, each with bated breath.

 With trembling fingers, I touch the mirror.
 For a moment, I wonder what I'll do if I hit the mirror with a bump.
 But it's unnecessary.
 As usual, my hand passes through to the other side of the mirror without feeling anything.

 I look back once.
 Yumegen-san gives me a powerful thumbs-up.
 Serene-san smiles gently.
 I bow my head slightly.

'Go, Ayase. That girl is myself, my sister, my daughter, and my grandson. Take care of that girl ............ ...... of Deanna, please.

'Of course. Thank you!

 And then I walked out of the mirror--



 ◇◆◆◆◇



'Orica Perspective'.


 Along with the blinding light, I - Orica Flaverim, along with everyone else in the mansion, watched as the mirror was automatically restored.

 The dimly lit basement is filled with so much light that I can't even keep my eyes open, and the mirrors connect on their own and return to their original appearance.
 I can see the world on the other side, and according to Marina-san, Aeon-san, and Shamash-san, the person who fixed the mirror was the Great Magician of the Dream Vision and his wife, Elf-sama.

 And a few minutes after the mirror was completely fixed back to its original form.
 From the mirror, the hand I always saw came out slowly and sooooo slowly.
 It's my husband's hand.
 It's my husband's hand that always receives my letters.
 I can't see the world beyond. I cannot see the world beyond, I just see it as a thin blur.

Oh, oh! The Lord is coming! Oh, there's ...... ...... and ......, and ......guss... ...Wow!

 Marina, who had been bouncing around and calling for her husband earlier, broke down in tears of emotion the moment her husband showed his slightly slimmer face.
 This is surprising because I expected Marina-san to hug her cousin (・・・・).
 But that doesn't mean I can't be ...... instead.

 The husband, who only took his hand out of the mirror, hesitated and stopped moving in that state.
 Anxiety spreads in my mind.
 Maybe the mirror wasn't fixed well ......? And so on.
 But those worries were unfounded.
 The master passed through the mirror to our side completely.
 He appeared embarrassed and a little apologetic.

'Oh, I'm embarrassed to say I've returned.

 I'm really embarrassed, but I'm moaning and moaning with a polish on my cheeks.
 It's such a happy day, and you should be more than happy to see me.

 Well, we and my husband were a little bit prepared that we might not be able to see each other again after this mirror was broken, so we might be happy but a little embarrassed that it was fixed so quickly.
 Oh, come to think of it, I also wrote and sent a letter that was quite embarrassing.
 I know it's too late now, but my face is getting hot.

"Master!

 The first person to actually hug her was Deanna-sama.
 Her big eyes are filled with tears, and the overflowing drops sparkle.
 She hugged her husband tightly, burying her face in his chest.
 And the husband also hugs Deanna, smiling gently.
 It's something different, a gentler embrace that's hard to explain with words.

I'm home, Deanna. I'm sorry you had to worry about me.
'U...... ewe ....... Go...... your husband Zabaa......

 Deanna-sama raises her face, which is messed up with tears.
 My heart fills with joy when I think of Deanna-sama, who has been sinking in the mansion ever since ...... and her husband couldn't come here.

'Jiro!' Boss! Young master! Ayase-kun! Ayase! Dear Jirou!

 Starting with Deanna-sama, everyone gathers around her husband with a wahoo.
 For some reason, we all patted the husband's head, rubbed his arms and patted his back, saying good, good, good.
 I joined in, defeated, and tugged on my husband's ear.
 I think everyone wanted to make sure that my husband was here.
 Touching it myself, I was certainly relieved, too.

'Jiro. I'm glad that ...... looks fine.

 Rebecca speaks to her husband in a mopey voice.
 There are faint tears in her eyes.
 In the village, Rebecca goes by the name of the scary older sister, but in front of her husband, she looks like a maiden in love.

''Rebecca-san too. I was worried about you. Thank you for protecting me about the mansion and everything.
It's OK to go to ....... Everyone worked so hard. Even ...... was really good ...... Jirou.

 Rebecca closed her eyes as she rested her head on her husband's two arms with her cotenium and closed her eyes.
 Even in the village, Rebecca is a beautiful woman, but there doesn't seem to be any talk about it, so why is that? The topic of "what's going on?" came up on a regular basis. It had come up, but we all avoided asking him about it because we thought it was a topic we weren't allowed to touch on.
 When we first moved in, it was thought to be Mr. Shero and his wife, but apparently it wasn't, and the hunters who liked to talk had found out from Mr. Shero that it wasn't.
 Apparently there were a few people who attacked her. But I was told that they were all rejected by Kechon Kechon.
 I can be sure now.
 Rebecca's crush is her husband, and that his heart seems to be deeper than I think it is.
 I don't know what happened before I got to know my husband, but now he is almost official in the village.
 I've heard that some of the young people in the village who have been trying to sneak up on Rebecca are quite jealous of her husband.

 After that, Shamash, Elepippi, Etowah, Aeon, and even Hetty beat us up, and we rejoiced in the reunion for a while until Marina who was left at the end wiped her tears and broke in and hugged her husband intensely.

 The husband also laughed at each other with tears in his eyes.
 I also hugged him in the confusion.
 It was quite a good one, so I'll continue to hug him in the confusion.

 Afterwards, the husband went back once to thank them for fixing the mirror, and once that was done, we all ate the food we had prepared for the party.
 Shamash was envious and Rebecca was angry that Lady Deanna and Marina were attached to her husband so bittily that there was not a millimeter of space between them.
 We've all been starving for your husband's portion (・・・・・) in the past month when he wasn't around. It's funny to watch them because they all go pitter-patter to attach themselves to their husbands, like they'll die if they don't suck up the nutrients.
 I also went to do the pitter-patter secretly. Because I seemed to be conspicuous if I was alone, I invited Etowah and I did it secretly. I'm glad to see that my husband seems to be quite comfortable with my maid's clothes because he likes them.

 And so the first bright night in a long time passed.



 ◇◆◆◆◆◆.



'Giraud's Point of View'


 It's been a long time since I've been in a different world.
 After the party was over and everyone had gone to bed.
 Lying alone on the couch, I was thinking about the future.

 When I think of the reunion with everyone, my lips start to loosen up.
 We cried, we rejoiced, we hugged each other and shared our joy.

 The heat. I felt the heart.

 I was glad that I hadn't given even a glimpse of what Yumegen had told me, that Emespalette was a game world, or a non-player character, or an android, or anything like that.
 They're all people who live in this world properly, just a slightly different species.
 Rather, I'm the only gentile, the only earthling.
 The fact that they've accepted me as a gentile is something that I should be happy about.

 Deanna and Marina were adamant that they would rather sleep together every day from now on.
 For a moment, I was about to say that if that's the case - but I decided against it.
 I sat on the side of the bed and patted their heads until they fell asleep, and then, perhaps because they were relieved, they immediately began to breathe quietly in their sleep.

 Deanna's special guidance.
 Serene asked me to give her my regards as well.
I still don't have a proper understanding of "Eternal Love", but I'll have to answer that question soon.

 After they were asleep, Rebecca and Hetty were waiting for me in the living room.

'What are you two going to do? If you're going to stay the night, I'll get you a place to sleep.
No, I'm staying at Becky's house, it's fine. Anyway, let's get right to it, Mr. Jiro.
'Yes. You mean ...... Dida, right?

 Revenge on Dida for causing the mirror to break.
 It seems that Hetty has already taken Dida into custody.
 At first she let her swim away, but when she heard that the mirror was going to be fixed, she kidnapped her.
 Hetty's nature is not one for slumbering, so she's a dynamic person. I thought that abduction would be a problem,......, but they said it was fine because they did a good job. If you say it's okay, we have to trust you.

 I'm not sure what I'm going to do about it.
 It's also said that the ground will harden with rain. This case turned out to be a positive one. I was able to get to know Yumegen and learn about this world.
 However, it's not good enough to let them off the hook.

"Jiro-sama.

 I started to think about it, and then Hetty called out to me.

'Even if you don't do it, I or Becky will. Princess Lucreon ...... No, you might as well have Ion do it for you.

 Oh, I see: .......
 Dida would have been suitably resentful even without this one: .......

 Rebecca and Hetty with a dignified look on their faces.
 They would kill (...) if they said they were going to kill (...) if they said they were going to kill (...).

 But I'll have to take care of this one myself.
 This isn't Japan. This isn't Japan. This isn't even Earth. The law doesn't apply.
 He'll pay for his killings by himself.
I can't remember what it was that said, "Only those who are ready to be killed can kill", but I think that's exactly right.

'...... I'll do it. Where are you now, Dida?
I've thrown it in my stable.
Yeah. So that's it.

 The only reason Mr. Shero wasn't here today is because he's on guard for him.

So, Mr. Jirou. The execution will take place tomorrow.
...... Okay, I understand. I'll prepare myself.

 And so they left.

 Never in my wildest dreams did I think that I would have to throw away my murderous virginity before my virginity.
 ...... If I'm going to be honest, it's too heavy for me.
 I'm not sure if I'm ready to stain that hand with blood, but I'm not.

 But then, you can't just let Hetty and Rebecca, much less Ion, do it .......

"Ahhhhh ....... What to do .......

 The other guy has a lot of money, so the best scenario I can think of is to tie him up in a genie contract and let him go scot-free in exchange for something financial: .......
 Even a bad guy like that would have a wife and kids.
 If he was murdered, he might be bent on revenge.
 That's the cycle of misfortune.

 Rather than going through that, we can just bind him with a spirit contract and make him untouchable.
 As a result, I'm still alive, so it's better to get paid than to just kill--

'No ......? No .......

 There's also the matter of Aeon. And there's Rebecca's mercenary group.
 I wouldn't be able to forgive you for what happened to me, even if I did.
 This isn't Japan. This isn't a world where lives matter.
 Instead, I've been given the right to strike back.
 Everyone wants to kill you.

"There's no way to get to ......... ............

 I lay down on the couch and looked at my hands.
 But I was not ready, and the night just went on.
