Chapter 74: 74 73. The beginning after the beginning.txt

With the light of the stars as our light, me and Snow build magic for each other in the training grounds.

We knew we would be friends for a long time, and it was decided that we would check out each other's powers before the end of the day.

Snow put his hand on a rock on the training ground. Then the rock bumped (...) and at the same time, a small crack appeared.

'...... This is my signature magic.'

Saying that, Snow further shook the cracked rock and split it vertically.

I can tell because I'm deploying 《Dimension》.

The true nature of Snow's signature magic is 'Vibration'.

''Vibrating rocks?''

...... Yeah. My attributes are 'nothingness' and 'fire'. If you combine this with my magical nature and 'Ancient Magic', you can do some more interesting things.

Snow took out a few magic stones from his pocket and scattered them around with magic power.

Then, Snow muttered softly.

Immediately the magic stones that were scattered began to shine, and the mutterings echoed through the training grounds in layers.

''...... If you combine this with your dimensional magic, it will be a phenomenal weapon. That's what Palinclone told me.''

It was as if they were surrounded by speakers, and Snow's voice could be heard from all the magic stones scattered around.

''Amazing ....... Are you manipulating the vibrations and making sounds out of the stones?''

"...... Yes. I put my 'hanging magic power' into the magic stone and recreate the voice with the application of 'ancient magic'. Because of being able to do this, I had to go through a lot of trouble.''

Snow snapped his fingers lightly, and the vibration of the magic stone that produced his voice stopped.

''This. Can you do this from a distance?''

You can do it at ....... We will support you with this. That's my promise to Palinkron.

I drip sweat at the anomalous nature of Snow's abilities.

The means of communication in this other world are scarce.

For example, if you want to be in constant contact with someone from afar, you must always draw a 'magic stone line'. Even with that 'magic stone line', it would not have been possible to transmit voices this smoothly.

In other words, Snow was personally in possession of technology that was several steps ahead of the world.

It's like having only one person using a cell phone in the world of the messenger pigeon.

I'm sure you can do a lot of interesting things with this magic. Can you help me with this magic?

...... Yeah. Support.

Snow nodded.

Then his sleepy eyes widened slightly, and he continued in a determined voice.

'I will keep my promise to Palinkron. But, as promised, I'll do what I want with the rest. As I please (・・・・・)--

Yeah, of course it is--

I try to agree with her, thinking that she has started negotiating about freedom within the guild.

But before I can, I am interrupted by her powerful words.

'Not long ago you called yourself 'Christ Eurasia' instead of 'Aikawa Kanami'. Perhaps Palinkron's spirit magic has erased your memories of those days. I'm sure that the bracelet is the key to the magic formula. We'd better break it now.

Snow gave me the name 'Christ Eurasia' and said that Palinkron had erased my memory.

I'm surprised.

I'm surprised in a double sense, both by the name and about the memory.

'He-?　Uh, uh, what?　What do you mean?

'At any rate, that 'bracelet' is most suspicious. At the time (・・・・), you weren't wearing a 'bracelet'.

Saying, Snow walks up to me and puts his hand on the 'bracelet'.

''Wait a minute!　This is just what I need!　I can't do without it!

I paid off Snow's hand and kept my distance.

This "bracelet" stabilizes my magic and also assists with my language abilities.

I can't take it off since I was reminded to wear it at all times.

--Ah. You can't ever take it off, no matter what.

...... All lies. You, too, are being played by the Palinkron.

As I move away, Snow calls out to me sternly.

But I have no idea what that 'being played with' means.

'I'm sorry, Snow. I don't understand what you're talking about. That's why I can't believe it when you say that the 'bangles' are suspicious.

Clearly I refused.

Hearing this, Snow dropped her outstretched hand to me and muttered softly.

'...... so.'

It was a weak murmur that didn't show the strong determination I had felt earlier.

Hearing that small voice, I regret that I may have rejected it too strongly. As if to make an excuse, I explain my reasons.

"Snow. This 'bracelet' is very important to me, so I can't take it off. Also, there's nothing I can do about it, even if you say that out of the blue: ......

...... separate. But when the time comes that you can believe me, break that 'bracelet'. Because then I think you'll have a chance to redeem yourself.

Snow didn't try to force it.

He didn't feel any heat to get his point across.

As her name implied, she thought she had a personality as cold as snow.

And she continued to speak as if to excuse herself.

'...... Because I certainly gave you some advice. I did the bare minimum. Just remember that.

Yeah, okay.

I nodded.

It's no problem to remember that.

I'm sure you're not the only one who's concerned about me, and I can tell from the look on her face that she's genuinely concerned about me.

The conversation pauses, and Snow and I remain face to face in silence.

It's a good thing that I'm not the first to break the silence.

He looks tired and spins his words.

'...... It's too much trouble to continue this conversation any longer. I'm mostly done with checking the magic. Let's call it a day, shall we?

'Yes. It's time to end it: ......

Follow me to ....... I'll show you Kanami's room.

Yeah. Uh-huh.

I follow behind Snow as he tries to leave the training grounds.

Come to think of it, I haven't heard from Palinkron about where I'm going to sleep.

Or rather, I haven't heard anything at all about what happened after I joined the guild. From the looks of it, it seems to be left up to Snow to explain that.

I ask her what I've been wondering about until I reach the room.

'Hey, who told you about 'Christ Eurasia'?'

...... Kanami.

Snow replies succinctly.

But I have no such memories.

In the first place, I've never even met Snow until today.

There are few people I've met since I wandered into this other world. And I don't think I've forgotten the faces of those few people. And that too, such a distinctive and good-looking girl.

'Then do you know what 'Christ' and 'Eurasia' mean?

'Meaning?　I only know your name.

Yeah, yeah, .......

Snow only tilted her head in wonder. Apparently, I'm the only one who finds the name awe-inspiring, knowing the original world.

But now I know better.

Snow doesn't know about my world.

He just seems to have heard the name 'Christ Eurasia' from somewhere. But I don't know who he heard it from.

As I was trying to guess who I heard it from and the source of the information, Snow stopped in front of a room at .......

'...... here,'

Snow walks into the room.

I follow behind him.

It was a large room.

Minimal furniture and a few signs of life.

For a new room that had been prepared for me, I thought there were a lot of things.

There were a lot of small items, especially accessories. It looks as if a girl lived here.

'This is my room?'

"...... No. My room.

It seems my observations were correct.

This is the remains of a girl's - or rather, Snow's - life.

Why are you in Snow's room now?

'...... I heard that you are to sleep here. The Guildmaster's room is not yet ready for you.

Oh, no way. ......!

I put my hands to my head and snarl.

At the same time, I curse in my mind for the palinclone that would have decided this.

'...... I knew you'd say that. If it's a problem, I'll sleep on the roof.

'Snow on the roof?　That's just not possible. Then I'll sleep in the hallway.

...... I also thought you would say that. I can sleep anywhere, but you're not convinced. Cumbersome, very cumbersome. It's ...... so I'll compromise.

Compromise?

Snow, as he says, approaches me in a very cumbersome manner.

And then he reaches out his hand to me and tries to touch me--

Sensing an unusual magical power from that hand, I jump back in a big way.

''--!

...... sorry.

Now, you were going to cast a spell on me: ......

I thought I'd have him stunned by surprise because of the ...... hassle. But I failed. I was stronger than you when we first met.

Snow disappointingly takes off his thick jacket and rolls onto the bed.

I look away, feeling sorry for him, even though he still has his clothes on underneath.

'I'll sleep in the hallway then. As long as I have a roof over my head and a blanket, I'm good to go.

...... It pains me to say that. At least sleep in the corner of the room.

I'm going to sleep in my sister's room, then. It's just Palinkron's way of harassing me. I don't have to keep my word.

...... Yeah. Then do it. But I introduced the room as Palinkron had instructed, in case you were wondering. Remember that.

Yeah, all right. I'll keep that in mind. ...... So I'll say goodbye. Good night. Snow.

...... Yeah, good night.

With that bedtime greeting, I leave Snow's room for the last time.

Snow doesn't try to force his opinions on me.

When he's about to argue, he pulls back quickly. I head to Maria's room, feeling a little strange about her unusually intelligent nature.

On the way, I feel the moonlight shining through the hallway window and look out.

There was a missing moon floating in the sky.

No different from the moon in my world - a waxing and waning moon.

Since the moon's waxing and waning exists, the concept of the calendar and time seems to be close to my world.

If the same kind of people live on the same planet, they will have similar ideas.

I found this coincidence creepy.

I felt as if I was living in the palm of someone else's hand because I was too good at it. It was unpleasant.　

Thinking about it, all today - I was really uncomfortable (・・・・・・・・).

An inexplicable anxiety was always lurking behind me.

The uncomfortable feeling I remembered in the morning has never gone away.

I'm doing something wrong. I'm forgetting something.

An uncomfortable feeling worse than hanging up a wrong button.

With that sickening feeling, I reach Maria's room and walk in.

'Maria ....... It's me .......

'Brother ......?　Welcome back: ......

Maria's face lit up when she heard of my coming.

Even though I met my beloved sister, I still felt uncomfortable.

However, I can't continue to look uncomfortable in front of Maria. The entire reason for the uncomfortable feeling is just one word: "It's a different world," he says softly to Maria.

'Maria, have you gotten over your headache yet?'

'No, it's somewhat better ....... The thin pain sticks and won't go away. Besides, it's a weird sensation. I feel like I'm doing something wrong, and I feel like I'm ....... I feel a little bit sick ......

I'm surprised.

Maria seems to remember the same feeling as I do.

It's an unfamiliar world, so you can't blame her. Don't think about it too much, just get some rest now.

Yes ......

He patted Maria's head and urged her to rest.

She's still not fully recovered from the eye injury and the burns.

I'm pretty sure she needs to rest as much as possible.

Hey, Maria. I can't find a place for me to sleep today," he said. Can I have this room?

"......!　Also, of course. I'd rather have you here forever, I would!

Okay, good. I'll take that chair over there, then.

No, not in a chair!　...... Brother, come sleep with me. The bed is big and we're brother and sister, it's fine. Surely you won't be happy sleeping in a chair?

Yeah, but...

Please. Brother.

Maria's tone is strong and anxious.

Maybe she's really just anxious and insecure and wants me to sleep with her.

We're brother and sister. It's not particularly strange for us to sleep together for peace of mind. I feel a little too old to sleep together, but now that it's not normal times, I'm going to meditate on it.

'Well, I'll do that then.'

Yes!

Maria smiled happily and I lay down beside my precious sister.

Then Maria lovingly held my hand.

'My brother's hand, it feels so nice and cold ......'

Then Maria relaxed from her body, relieved.

From the way she looked at me, I realized that she had been on edge the entire time I was gone.

No wonder.

Lost in another world, losing her eyes and waiting for her brother in the dark - there was no way her mind could rest during that time. Maria must not have felt at ease for a moment until she touched me.

I made up my mind that if I was given a room with the guildmaster, I would continue to sleep with Maria from now on.

I will never leave her again. I will be by her side.

I think I made that promise to her.

Remembering that promise, I felt the warmth of my precious family in my clasped hands.

But the feeling of discomfort still remains.

I'm supposed to be in the happiness of being with my brother and sister, but something doesn't feel right.

With a small shake of my head, I chase that feeling of discomfort from my mind.

Let's take a break for now.

First, I need to ensure my safety in this other world.

I need to earn money to pay for Maria's treatment while consolidating my position in Lauravia. In order to do that, I have to start working hard tomorrow. I don't have time to worry about it.

And so, holding Maria's hand back tightly, I fall into a deep sleep.

Into a deep, deep, deep sleep...
