I read out the title on the cover, and a moment of silence fell.

If I had gotten this in Japan, I would have laughed it off, but ...... this is not good.

In my head I'm ruminating on what Maja told me and what Docola told me.

It's the end of the line for those who have been resurrected by the demon king, the forbidden resurrection magic, and those who have spun the worst history.

And the people on Earth who are said to have created that reanimation magic.

This book is obviously related to that.

It's not that I'm not curious. It's the first contact with Earth I've seen in this world.

But the words in the book are too ominous.

Samples, research logs--

My mind spins half-heartedly, and I can't help but think of what it might say.

It was left by Docora, who lived in the dark. That's how my thought process works now.

"Don't you read ......?

Kara's voice brings me back to reality.

Yes, it's not just me who's here now.

Kara-ya is here too.

"Kara, there's something I need to tell you first. This is something that only Ilias and Maya know, so please keep it to yourself.

"Okay.

I'll tell Grandpa Kara the truth about what I've been up to.

I told him that I had been transferred from Japan to Earth without knowing why, and that I was now able to communicate with Marja through her possession technique.

I told her the whole story.

And then I told her what Docola had told me.

"So now you have this book in front of you .......

"I see. ...... I can understand why you're upset. But what do you yourself want to do?

What do you want to do ......?

You think, and then you sigh.

I won't read it, not now.

If you don't read it now, you'll lose the opportunity. Are you sure?

In this world, it is forbidden to seek knowledge of resurrection magic.

And if the contents of this book are as the title suggests, then reading it is an act of reaching into that forbidden territory.

It is true that this book may contain information about the relationship between the earth and this world.

But it is more likely that it contains many things that we should not know.

If I had to keep this to myself, I would have read it, but now that I've shared it with Grandpa Kara, I'm going to go with the flow of this world.

I'm a man of few words.

I'm a man of my word, but I'm not sure I can keep a secret, even if he can.

I have no confidence that I can keep it hidden, at least not if I'm suspected and interrogated.

Torture would break his heart just by the thought of having his fingernails ripped off.

He smiled and handed the book to Grandpa Kara.

"I just want to leave this with someone I trust. Unfortunately, I don't want other knights like Sir Léanor to find it.

"If you leave it with me, it will go to Lord Raggedythe and then to the king.

I haven't met him yet, so I can't say for sure, but I don't mind, as long as I can trust Grandfather Kara.

It's a heavy burden to bear, but rest assured.

Now, let's go home.

That's it.

If this book turns out to be dangerous, those who read it will be treated in the same way.

But it is not good to be in such a situation as a drifter who is allowed to stay in this country.

Grandfather Kara is a trusted knight in this country.

If you testify in front of him that you didn't read the book, it will be effective.

If he did read it, he might not talk.

But Grandfather Kara is a knight. He may waver if he has to weigh his loyalty to his superiors and the king against his promise. He might still keep his promise to us.

But I don't want such a thing to happen to a fine knight like him.

I don't want him to betray his loyalty or break his promise.

Finally, are you sure about this?

I like to play it safe, that's all.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa. It's okay to be adventurous when you're young.

It's not that I've completely lost the opportunity to read this book. Perhaps - I'll just conjure up some excusable expectations in my head and forget about it.

I've made my choice, now it's time to go with the flow.

And so they returned to Taze.



After parting with the young man, Karagyugyesta went to visit Lord Ragdor.

He must have sensed the suddenness and strangeness of the visit.

There was a tense atmosphere between the two men in the room.

"So, what is this urgent business?

"Today, based on the map left behind by Docola, the leader of the bandit alliance, I conducted my own investigation of a certain base.

You were not unaware that Lord Reynaud was preparing to send a survey party.  

"I'm sorry about that, sir.

All right, go ahead.

This way.

Then he handed over the book he had found in the cave.

Lord Raggedy took the book and looked at the cover.

"Hmm, I haven't seen that word before.

He opens the book, and all the words are unreadable.

The words are unreadable, but occasionally there are drawings.

But the meaning is still unclear.

Reading book after book, Lord Raggedy stopped moving.

"Karagyugyesta, have you read this?

"No, I have never opened it since I found it. I can swear to it.

Well, good. I'm glad to see that the young man has managed to control himself.

Karagyugyesta's eyes widened.

Did they see through you?

"Maja told me about it. Maja had told me about it, but Ilias had kept it to himself.

There were other Ragdolls there when Docora was talking to him.

Then some of them would have heard that the Chikyuu race had created necromancy and resurrection magic. Of course they would have reported it to Lord Raggedythe.

And if Maja had told him who he was, it was easy to guess why he had gone to the base alone this time, and who was next to him.

Karagyugyesta bowed his head.  

"Forgive me for trying to hide it.

"Forgive me, you and I are close.

Lord Raggedythe finished reading the whole thing and closed the book.

"I trust you have not opened the book. So the man can read the title of this book?

"Yes, he read it out loud to me when I told him I couldn't.

What did he say?

"Sample #4, The Blue Demon King's Research Record, that's what he said.

Lord Ragdoll's expression became even more grim.

"One of the many Demon Lords who created the worst history, the Blue Demon King was the fourth to appear, right?

"Yes.

The figure in the book I could barely make out, and the meaning of the title.

I'll have to look into the book's provenance.

".......

Don't worry. Neither you nor the young man have done anything incriminating.

Well, that's ...... good.

While Karagyug Jesta was relieved, Lord Raggedyddo's heart was in turmoil.

I must tell King Marith about this. And we should investigate in secret.

If there was more to this knowledge, it could not be overlooked.

Sir Raggedy put the book in his pocket and stood up.

I'll be back.

The forest expedition was over and I left Kara.

We had a good harvest, but I don't want to step on those mines.

The horse had shortened our travel time, but the sun was already setting in the evening.

I've had a light lunch, so my hunger is going well.

I would like to visit Dog Bone in the evening, and dinner there would be no problem.

My body is soaked with sweat from walking back and forth through the forest.

Let's go back to the house, wipe ourselves off, and change our clothes.

Well, it's great to have a place to live and a change of clothes, isn't it?

Although it had only been a day or so, life in the mountains had taught me a good lesson in appreciating everyday life.

"Ta-dai-ma".

Even when I live alone, I still say it, especially when I'm in a good mood.

"Welcome back to .......

"Oh my God!

There was Ilias at the door, sitting on the ground, staring at me.

That's right. This was Ilias's house!

I don't know why he's sitting in the doorway.

And he's in a really bad mood. Something must've happened at work.

I don't blame him. I have to be an adult and follow him.

"Don't scare me, it's the front door. Do you usually do that?

"Not always, but this morning.

Hmm, what do you mean ...... Oh? Well, well, well.

You are reading story It's Sudden, but I Came to Another World! But I Hope to Live Safely at novel35.com

I'm pretty sure Grandpa Kara is off duty today.

That means the Iliad was off duty as well, and probably came home yesterday.

So he's been at the door all morning. .......

Hmmm, hmmm.

It's so cool, and yet my forehead is sweating.

I've been waiting for you ......?

"What, I could feel the loneliness of being left alone for a day. It's been a good experience. I guess I don't need a tour of the city.

I'm sorry, all right?

......

Oh, you're messing with me.

My eyes aren't looking at me.

What are we gonna do?

Well, yeah. We're gonna have dinner.

I don't have any good food. I couldn't even go to the store.

It's okay, it's okay. I found a nice place. I found a good place. The manager and the waiter are good guys. ......

Oh, so that's where you were last night while I was waiting for you to come home.

Oh no, this is not good.

And you were having a good time at the restaurant today. ......

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

While I was waiting at the door for him to come home, he was having fun with ......

What a pain in the ass this guy is!

I'd rather have him grab me by the chest and shake me!

I thought, "......, I'm sorry, I was being sarcastic.

And then he apologized.

I'm not ready for this. I got carried away thinking about having people waiting for me at home and spending my off-duty time with strangers. ....... I'm sure you have your own circumstances. ...... Forgive me.

Oh, I see.

You've unwittingly betrayed the expectations of the Iliad, regardless of the form.

When it comes to fighting, he's definitely a top-notch knight.

But when it comes to other things, she is a girl of her age, or perhaps even less.

Like the old me who had faint hopes for others...

Hold on. I'll go get dressed. Then we'll go out.

"Oh, yeah.

I can't blame you for being depressed. It's not our fault.

Then there's only one thing to do. Let's just pick up what we can see.

When the sun had set, we visited the Dog Bone.

"Is this ...... the Dog Bone?

Oh, you know it, as usual.

Yes, the Dog Bone with the reputation for cooking.

"I've been meaning to visit this place when I'm punishing myself. Well, now's the time.

So much, no, it was so much.

It's okay. I've been properly reincarnated.

What?

I'm going in. It's already crowded with people.

Saira, who is busily running around, spots you and calls out.

"Welcome--ah!

It's even more crowded than yesterday.

"Oh my God, they're so busy!

She's half crying. She's so happy. No, let's put it that way.

He swims his gaze, looks around, and feels something strange.

No, it's weird not to notice. .......

"Is there a stranger working here?

"Mr. Dmitri Kovkon gathered some of his acquaintances. "How can three people handle a restaurant that serves such good food? I'll go get my friends! I'll call my friends!

Yes, indeed, there were some strange old ladies working hard as waiters.

In the kitchen, besides Godz and Grandpa Kara's wife, there are other people cooking.

I was planning to help them after the meal, since it would be hard even with three people, but it looks like I won't have to.

"Hey, are those the wives of the Ragdoll team?

Oh yes, I'm so impressed!

If even the wives of fans can be happy, then this job might be his calling.

If he can please even the wives of his fans, he might be able to find a job here.

Karaji was there too. He's in the group at the end of the store.

I see. They're off duty, but their wives are here, so they have to come here to eat... Sounds like a tight squeeze. I didn't expect such a sad scene.

Well, they look like they're eating well, so that's good.

I don't want to see the ladies staring at me when I try to add more alcohol.

Let's just sit down. I call out to Ilias, who is glancing at me outside the door.

Ilias, there's an empty seat over there, let's sit down.

"Oh, yeah.

"...... Master Iliad!

Cyra made the most astonished face she had seen since they met.

Ilias was also surprised by her face.

"Wow, wow, wow, what an honor to come to a place like this!

Don't tell the waiter it's a restaurant like this: ......

The Iliad is asked to shake hands and awkwardly responds.

He's not used to receiving such favors from the public after all.

"Don't squash it.

I will!

He sits down and leaves the ordering to Cyra.

A wine of some sort is served, and chips and fries are placed on the table.

By the way, this is the first time I've ever had a drink in this world.

The aroma and taste are similar to wine, but the alcohol content is slightly higher and the sweetness is stronger.

If I'm not careful, I'm sure I'll get drunk soon.

I reach for the food to fill my hunger.

...... is delicious.

"I bet it is. I don't usually like salty food. Yesterday was terrible.

That's how I talk about what happened yesterday.

Meeting Sila, coming to this restaurant.

I took Godz to Maja's to train him.

Then we went to Mr. Ban's trading post to get some salt and come up with a new menu together.

We worked late into the night, and slept like we were exhausted.

I don't know the city, but you've done a lot in just one day.

I'm exhausted.

I'm exhausted because of it." "You've been doing so much for others, and I've been waiting for you with a grudge. ...... Pathetic.

What did you think when you saw how welcoming Saira was?

Well, I was a little surprised and ...... confused.

But you were happy, weren't you?

Yeah, ....... ......

It's not just the knights of Raggedy Rock. There are people who recognize and like the Iliad. It would be a shame to see so many people condemning the Iliad and not seeing the people who do.

"Oh, I'll reflect on that and be careful afterwards. ...... I'm still immature.

You still say that?

I just lived my life trying to be a great knight like my father. I just tried to be a good knight like my father. But when I look back, I'm happy and troubled and disturbed by what others think of me. ......

That's okay. It is natural for human beings to be displeased when people criticize them and to be pleased when people like them. To separate them as immaturity is weakness of the mind.

That's not true.

Iliad's father never once smiled at Iliad? Was he a cold-hearted man who killed his own humanity even in front of his daughter?

"--My father was a very proud, brave, and stern man. ......

Ilias turns over and stares at the drink in his glass.

"Yes, but I remember. I remember the smile on his face when I made him a crown of flowers and gave it to him. ......

"Don't cut it off. Accept and embrace it. When things get bad, turn your anger into power and twist it around. When you're happy, chew it up and use it to move forward.

Is that what ...... is?

That's how it works.

But in the end, it's immaturity that comes out in your attitude.

I don't deny that. You're on the right path, and you're gonna do it.

Oh, I never thought I'd hear you say that about the road. It's even more dangerous than mine.

Are you so sure?

"So much.

Ilias laughed. Ilias laughed, perhaps because of the alcohol.

His blushing smile was more mature than her years.

I'll bring her here more often. There are many allies for Ilias here.

It will give her strength.

She glanced sideways at these trustworthy people.

Saira is falling while carrying empty dishes.

Godz is in tears, scolded by Grandpa Kara's wife.

The Ragdolls are sitting on the floor, probably because there are not enough tables due to the increase in customers.

...... It's good once in a while, yeah.

And on the way home, you'll have to carry the drunken Iliad on your back.

Apparently, the days of sore muscles will continue.
