Isekai Shoukan wa Nidome Desu

Chapter 5



Phew (Setsu)

I came to the castles Magic Institute because it is said that Tia Amulet, the last of my former attendants is there.

The atmosphere in front of the door seems to be quite dangerous, but although Im fairly hesitated to enter, I made up my mind and opened the door when I noticed the bad smell. A very nasty, bad smell.

However its a strangely familiar nasty smell. If Im not mistaken, its the similar smell that always sticks to that persons clothes at that timebut it was not at this dangerous scale.

I almost choked instinctively, so I kept all the smell away from myself with wind magic. Although its already hopeless that it had already soaked into my clothes, it become slightly better now.

I can finally look at room, and find the one Im looking for.

The room is really spacious when I see it again, and overall dim, with distorted-shaped plant hanging on the ceiling, with magic stone storing magic power rolling here and there. Theres also a glass container containing mysterious liquid in it. Is that a beaker? They are displayed on an appropriate table. Theres one lying there, and when the content is dripping on the floor, I heard a sizzling sound when the liquid touched the floor. Is that acid? Is the one inside that thing acid?

The other side of the table also had a lot of beaker-like things, and the lady which is my purpose is there.

The lady sits on a chair, working on something on that messy desk.

When I approached to call out to her, the lady suddenly turned and looked me in the eyes.

With purple hair that is grown until the center of her back, expressionless eyes, and beautiful lips with a slight tinge of redand also having a young face and body. She wears a huge unbalanced white robe, and a white shirt underneath it.

This girl is none other than the last of my attendants, she doesnt change at all from 5 years ago, the figure of Mad Scientist Tia.

[T.N: Direct translation is Evil Professor, but I think Mad Scientist fits better.]

This Tia just stares at me.

Until she finally opens her mouth.

N. been a long time, Setsu. (Tia)

Im really surprised. My body is shabbier than before I was reincarnated. Even my eyes are hidden as I still havent cut my long bangs yet..so I really have no idea how she could managed to recognize me when even my eyes are hidden.

How the hell did you recognize me with this appearance, Tia? (Setsu)

Setsu, I have the Magic Eye, Ive been traveling with you for so long that I wont mistook your magic power. (Tia)

[T.N: Anyone got better name than magic power?]

Thats I seeshes a carrier of an extremely rare magic eyes.

Just like its name suggest Magic Eyes refers to putting magic power to your eyes. Various effect could be demonstrated by putting magic power.

In Tias case for example, her eyes has the ability that could capture the magic power in her view. It seems weak at a glance, but there wont be that many place to hide once your magic power is caught in her view, so its ideal as a countermeasure for surprise attack. Her eyes really helped us during our journey.

By the way, the Charm Eye that the princess used is a technique than anyone can use if you have the talent and training. Magic Eye is a power that mainly manifested when one was born, so the Charm Eye that anyone could use are not labelled as Magic Eye.

Although there are many powerful Magic Eyes, not that many of them are left right now. Thats why the cause of how the Magic Eyes are born is unknown 5 years ago.

But you really didnt change huh still looking like a loli like before? (Setsu)

Muu, Ive properly grown slightly taller this time. A wizard cant grow up that easily. (Tia)

A wizard had a hard time growing old? Although its the first time Im hearing itwell how about you tell me how much you have grown? (Setsu)

0.5mm. (Tia)

Isnt that in the margin of error? (Setsu)

When she heard my words, Tia had a displeased look and start punching me with *pechi pechi* sound.

Shut up, Setsu is mean like always. (Tia)

Yeah yeah, my bad. (Setsu)

The head of the short Tia comes into contact with my chest. Her appearance of *pechi pechi* beating my chest with her thin hands, even after 5 years had passed since then, it can only be said as childish.

This part of you doesnt change too.

Naturally, I wont change that easily. Anywayalthough Ive heard from Eruka that Setsu had come back to this world via a summoning, why are you here? (Tia)

Aah, that because Ive heard that youve been desperately researching for a way to summon me again. I just thought that for the time being I should say thanks. (Setsu)

N, this degree is nothing. In addition, its cheap if I can meet Setsu again. (Tia)

Although Im glad when she said that, it feels a bit itchy after all.

I felt uncomfortable somehow, so I shake my head and put my hand under her armpit and lift her like during the old days. I sit on a chair, and let Tia sit on my knee.

Tia doesnt show any resistance when I carry her, as she just leans her back on my body.

N, as I thought, although the figure had changed, this comfortable feeling is indeed belongs to Setsu. (Tia)

She had a satisfied look as she puts her whole weight on me. We usually took a rest like this under the shade of a tree during our journey.

Thats right, I want to ask what happened after you got forcibly sent back home by this country. (Tia)

? Why? (Setsu)

Im considerably interested at how your appearance had changed. I didnt learn much from Eruka. (Tia)

Is that so? That fine I guess. (Setsu)

I told Tia everything without concealing anything.

About having reincarnated, about how I looked for a way to come back here, and about the summoned situation

15 years or more had passed in Setsus world. But this world is only 5 years. (Tia)

That seems to be so (Setsu)

Well, its not impossible for the flow of time to be different between worlds, since the boundary is different.

Remembering what I must tell her here, I opened my mouth again.

Ah, while Im here. (Setsu)

You want to get out of the country? (Tia)

Like I said how the hell did you guys able to figure that out (Setsu)

Because Setsu looks like hes going to say thatis what Tia said.

Am I really that easy to read?

Youve become readable after meeting those people and ending the war. (Tia)

What are you, an Esper..? (Setsu)

However, theres one thing I want to advise you at the moment. (Tia)

N? (Setsu)

That is. (Tia)

Dozens of minutes later, I who had a long talk with Tia looked at the time and went out of her laboratory. At the end with her saying with this I could devote myself on experimenting on normal magic kind of leave an impression on me, so I kind of felt slightly sorry. Since she spent a lot of time for my sake, as I thought I need to do something for her soon. Also to Eruka and Grein.

And then, about Tias advice

its fine if you made some mistakeseriously. (Tia)

[T.N: Not sure about this one. Raw: ]

Walking the long corridor illuminated with light, I start walking to return back to my room.

In my head, the face of the person who got summoned together with me before appeared

In the middle of the night

When everyone had fallen asleep, theres someone visiting my room.

May I enter, Setsu-sama? (???)

Yeah, Ive been waiting, Eruka. (Setsu)

Excuse meEruka whos wearing some rough shirt and shorts entered while saying that.

I tell her to sit on a chair, as I sit on the bed. Im sorry for you guys who are imagining some lewd things, theres no such sweet one this time.

Did you managed to talk to them? (Setsu)

Yesjust like Setsu-samas aim, I was able to led the king and princess to a conclusion of driving you out. (Eruka)

Is that so, you did well. (Setsu)

I praised Eruka who did her work obediently.

Tomorrow, they will call Setsu-sama to tell you about it. Youll be given 3 days to stay here. (Eruka)

So they want me to get out after that time huh, understood. (Setsu)

Setsu-sama? (Eruka)

Hmm? (Setsu)

Eruka had a doubtful look like shes not convinced somehow.

Why didnt you just go all out at full power? You dont even need to care about endangering our position (Eruka)

Either way its going to be troublesome (Setsu)

Well aside from that, its certainly possible for me to use the method that Eruka said. I have the power to do just that.

However, its no good then (Setsu)

Why is it? (Eruka)

Its easy, because the pursuers will follow. (Setsu)

Pursuer..? (Eruka)

To save their faces, this country will not just part with a human that theyve summoned so easily. Therefore its obvious that they wont let me apart from the castle even if I negotiate. And it seems they dont really want to part with the good-for-nothing me just due to the fact that Im a person from another worldis the side of the story that Ive heard from Eruka.

Lets say I go with that ideaforcing my way with the country, that would be the proof that I have some strength. In other words it would get leaked even when I was concealing my ability then the response of the country will be between this 2.

1, Theyll send pursuers to search for me as a wanted man as Im a person who had resisted the country.

2, Desiring my power, theyll send pursuer demanding cooperation, proposing a negotiation.

Since thats the conclusion Ive arrived to considering the thought process of this country, the possibility of them acting differently from that is really low.

I see, the possibility of them sending pursuer is really high. (Eruka)

Right? In short, since its a pain, Im not going to force my way. (Setsu)

Understood. But the current method also takes a considerable effort too. (Eruka)

Yeah, thats right. (Setsu)

As it do takes time, its also a pain to have them kick me out.

However, its only going to be a pain for now, as they wont have any reason to send out pursuers later on to chase me to the other side. (Setsu)

Is that so (Eruka)

Its a hassle as it takes some time, bur I really want to continue being treated as a good for nothing. So I want you to look at me like that at that time. (Setsu)

Instead of forcing my way and slip out, since its easier to just escape safely with their help, Ive been spending some time just for the trouble.

Well, although I do feels like going all out forcing my way, being voluntarily kicked out is not that bad either. (Setsu)

I see. With this Im finally convinced. (Eruka)

[T.N: basically, the pursuers are just an excuse as he could easily handle them. Hes just doing whatever he wants right now, thats it, thats what makes Eruka convinced.]

Thats good thenah, thats right. (Setsu)

A question floated in my mind in the middle of the conversation, lets ask casually.

How did you pressed the idea of having me kicked out to the king? (Setsu)

Thats, I just speak some ill things about Setsu-sama and (Eruka)

Hou and what exactly did you said? (Setsu)

Um.. something like That thing is a hopeless good-for-nothing, or Its a waste to spend your time for such a good-for-nothing even if its just a little, also I cant endure having that good-for-nothing on the castle. (Eruka)

Aahnthose are some good glaring eyes. (Eruka)

Haah. What the hell are you saying about your master? (Setsu)

But Im just doing what Setsu-sama ask me to do. (Eruka)

While it is certainly like thatugugu, Im a bit hurt having someone said that about me. Especially when a person close to you called you a good-for-nothing.

Well whatever. Anyway Eruka, you did well. Im quite saved with this. (Setsu)

No nobut Im going to get separated from Setsu-sama again in a few days (Eruka)

I guess. (Setsu)

Eruka had the job of training the heroes along with Grein. If I make her follow me, theyll definitely send a pursuer. Tia is the countrys wizard. The same problem will occur if she disappeared.

Unfortunately its not possible to take you along, Im sorry okay? (Setsu)

No, Since I understood you pointthe night have grown late too, so I think Ill head back to my room. (Eruka)

Yeah, thanks a lot for today. (Setsu)

Fufu, Setsu-sama is troublesome but is still gentle huh? Even though its fine to use us more than this. (Eruka)

Eruka raised from her seat with a smile.

Im not really that nice though (Setsu)

Youre very gentle you know? I want you to rely and use me more. (Eruka)

.Are you saying that because youre getting excited? (Setsu)

Yes! (Eruka)

This girlwith such a serious face.

It really makes it looks like her previous expression is just a lie.

Haah.since Im tired from having to move around so much today, Im already sleepy. (Setsu)

Absolutely!! Im glad that I got to be ordered by you! (Eruka)

Eruka heads towards the exit of the room while saying that

While she heads to the door, she looked back and opened her mouth.

Setsu-samadid you hear the story about that person? (Eruka)

Yeah, I heard about it from Tia. (Setsu)

I seeno, Im sorry for asking about that. Good night, Setsu-sama. (Eruka)

.Good night. (Setsu)

After Eruka left, I thought about what Eruka had said.

whats the point of asking me.

That personthat person should have died. (Setsu)

[T.N: The gender is not confirmed, so Im using that.]

[T.N: POV changed to third person]

At the castles corridor, Yuuhi who is Setsus childhood friend had become unable to sleep as she thinks about her promise with Setsu, so she had a walk around the castle.

(Going around with Yuki-kun~)

While thinking about such things at that time, Yuuhi became strangely happy.

Setsus existence is considerably large for her, but she doesnt know why.

While strolling around the castle in high spirit, a door in front of her suddenly opened.

(Uwah! Theyre going to get angry at me in the middle of the night!!)

Going out in the middle of the night, Yuuhi hid herself in the shade as she think she would obstruct whoever it is that coming out. Erasing her presence, she tried not to get found. Its very easy for her to do technique like this considering her overflowing talents.

Who came out of the door, was a woman called Eruka who was training her classmate in a different training ground. Shes a person of the same influence as GreinYuuhi had that much of a recognition.

(Eruka.right? What is she doing at such a time)

night, Setsu-sama (Eruka)

(!!)

Certainly just now.saying Setsu-sama

Yuuhi was at a loss. Setsuin other words that was Yuki-kuns room, and a woman came out of it. Unfortunately, for someone called Setsu, theres only him out of all the classmates.

(What kind of relationship do you have.Yuki-kun)

Yuuhi at that time, questions and uneasiness began to swirl inside her
