Chapter 136: 136 Episode 136: Magic dies on a moonlit night.txt

Yumegen-san's story was a different dimension to me, even after experiencing that other world.

No, the story of the future is even more indeterminate than the other world, and to put it bluntly, you can say "whatever you want". There is no guarantee that it is a true story.

But the content of the story made sense to me.

It's also possible that the fact that "special guidance" attracts fate is something I had heard when I met Deanna.

But then--

''But you cleared that 'special guidance', didn't you, Yumegami-san?　Aren't you still living with your high elf wife?

I'm sure that's what he said.

If that was accomplished, wouldn't Kaguya's wish to be the first AI have been fulfilled?

'Umm ...... that's what. It wasn't. The guidance was achieved, but it didn't mean that the wish was fulfilled. In a limited sense, it's a form of ...... our wife's wish only came true.

What do you mean?

I wonder if there's a lot to say about special guidance.

That's because the High Elf is probably a different person, although he's the same person ......?　No, I guess it's a different person. I'm not sure.

"Isn't there a young high elf at your place right now?

'Yes. He says he's only 21. It's a self-identification, so it may not be reliable.

No, the age thing is true. The 'special guidance' comes at a young age.

Is that so?

That's right. The 'special guidance' occurs while one's previous body is still alive. It is designed to leave a backup person behind in case of failure.

High elves are said to be born, from the same individual.

So does that mean that currently Deanna has a female high elf ...... who is the source of Deanna?

"This is just my theory, but if the 'special guidance' was really achieved, that is, if Kaguya's wish was fulfilled, then a new high elf should not be generated. The wish has already come true, you know. There's no point in continuing.

I wonder if that's true.

I'm not sure: ...... Maybe so.

'But a new High Elf was born. Or rather, after the 'special guidance' from my time was cleared, the power of the High Elf returned to my wife's front body.

Hmm?　What does that mean?

'I mean, my wife is a separate line of individual high elves in the main family, and she stands on her own.

So that would mean that Deanna is an individual ...... that was re-born (・・・・・) by the previous body of Yumegen's wife. So, does that mean that Deanna and Yumegen's wife are sisters?　No, is it technically 'the same person'? Or is it a clone?　It's a no-brainer to think about.

'So that means there were two female high elves in that world at that moment. Well, we came over here in a few years, so it was only for a short time.

'You mean it's always been your dream to start your own business?　Your wife's?

'It's not. I'm not going to be able to tell you what to do. That wish came true and that's why I've been living with that guy forever.

Is Mr. Mugen the one with the infinite life of a magiemon? Only Mugen.

''That's why I want to advise you. What it means to have infinite lives. Well, as for me, I'd be happy to have a mate.

Infinite Life.

Considering Yumegen's youthfulness, he must have remained ageless ever since his guidance was achieved.

There's no way I can know what immortality is like.

''How can you even know what ...... is?''

Yumegen-san huffs and shrugs her shoulders.

''Eh?''

Sorry, it's not like there's an infinite number of lives. It's not infinite.

'Really?　But you were led to do so.

"In the other world, you would have lived ....... Perhaps you would have lived forever. But in this era of Earth, there is no spirit power or magic power on this planet. Especially since we don't have any spirit power. In fact, we'll probably die in another 300 years. In fact, I've aged reasonably well in the last 150 years.

Is that still 300 years?

It's just that it's not the same as knowing it's not forever.

Then infinite life doesn't seem like a bad idea.

No, Yumegen-san has already lived over here for 150 years, so if I get infinite life now, it'll be 450 years. That's too long: .......

'Well, it's not like my time anyway. The high elves at your place won't be able to come to this world.

Come to think of it, that's right. That's the fundamental question.

''I mean, how did you come to this world in the first place, Yumegen-san?　...... No, you said you went back a thousand years ago, and then you went back another thousand years?

He said he made a mirror and came over here.

I understand that.

But that mirror wasn't something the otherworldly people could pass through.

There's a difference between being able to see the world over here and not being able to see it.

Aside from Yumegen-san herself, there would be nothing she could do about her daughter-in-law who was a High Elf.

There are still too many things I don't understand.

''Well, that's a long story too: ......

Indeed, we've been talking for two hours now.

As for me, the most important item is to see if I can get the mirror fixed, and that's apparently something I can do about it.

But I wanted to hear what Yumegami-san had to say.

Partly because I'm the only person I know who knows the other world that was created in this world.

Yumegen-san opened her mouth after a little bit of trouble.

''Well, let's talk about the details again with my wife. For now, I'm sure she believes me to be a real Dreamscape mage. Besides, in any case, the mirror can't be fixed without my wife's help.

That's totally fine with me. When would that be convenient for you?

'Yes. A night with as much spirit power as possible is best. Maybe the next full moon night would be best.

'Full moon?　Is there a connection between spirit power and the full moon?

What is the spirit power in the first place? You said something about manipulating the law of cause and effect or something like that, but I actually don't really understand what it means.

I guess magic power is magic power, so I still kind of understand it.

'Spirit power is the power to twist cause and effect. Spirit magic is cause-and-effect twisting magic. It's only at night that you can do such bad things ....... Right?

'Eh. Is that the reason?

'Of course it's a lie. You can't teach the truth to people in this day and age yet. And even if you could, it would be hard to understand.

I see. ......

Well, I guess it's just a technical problem of the future and I don't need to be taught.

All that matters is that apparently the night of the full moon is a good night.

I pulled out my phone. The next full moon is .......

...... Sounds like 5 days later, next full moon. It's almost there, does it look okay?　I don't have any plans, of course.

'Yeah, well, that's the day then. For me and my wife, it'll be the best thing we've done in a hundred years.

Not that much.

I'm sure the immortals have a lot of time on their hands. I'm sure he's basically living in hiding. ...... What do you do with the family register in the first place?

I'll talk about it next time.

I'm glad you're OK with this, though, because 5 days later is not long enough. I'm not sure I could wait for the next full moon again.

...... By the way, I'd like to ask you one last question.

Hmm, what?

Why are you being so good to me?

He came all the way to Shizuoka City, Japan, to fix the mirror.

Of course, I'm prepared to pay for the travel expenses, but still.

Yumegen-san was about to say, "Oh no, that's not what ...... is," he said with a slightly serious expression on his face.

'It's just that it's in a mirror I made. Besides, you've given me a lot of nostalgic sights to look at, you know. There are some things I wanted to tell you about the high elves involved. ...... More importantly, I wanted to tell you about the other side of the world. For the last 150 years, my wife and I have been the only ones to talk about the other side. In a manner of speaking, I'd like to do a favor to anyone who knows the homeland ...... that's why.

Homeland ......?

Yumen-san, in saying this, left his home planet and came to Earth.

And while he lived a long life span, he was unable to return to the other world.

Life on this world wasn't bad ......, but it must have been a lot of hardship because we came 2000 years past the time we were really aiming for.

If you know that there are people who have crossed over to the other side in the midst of all that, and if you know that they seem to be in trouble, you might be in the mood to do something to accommodate them.

After making an appointment to meet up with him five days later, Yumegen took the local train back again.

When I asked him why he came here by train, his answer was simple: "Because I like trains". He seems to like all kinds of vehicles.

By the way, the cloak is not just a meaningless thing to wear, it's a magic tool that has the effect of keeping you from remembering your appearance.

When I took a picture of Yumegen-san wearing the cloak, I was surprised that it didn't show up on camera. If you talk to the person in question, that's not the case, but if not, it's said to have the effect of making it impossible to remember even meeting him.

It's a scary otherworldly quality.

Strictly speaking, this may be super science, but it's hard to believe that this world will eventually develop to that level.

◇◆◆◆◆◇.

When I got home, I sat down in my room in a slump.

For now, I'm going to write a letter.

That I've met with the great mage of the dreamscape.

That the mirror can be fixed.

I need the spirit stone and the demon crystal.

It will be fixed in five days.

That's what I've written.

But I couldn't write more than that.

Rather, I didn't have the confidence to explain it well in a letter, and all the words would still be too difficult for Orica to understand.

After sending the letter, Deanna rushed to hand it to Orica.

Orica stopped cooking and began to decipher it.

There were still a lot of words that Orica didn't know.

It would take some time to read them.

When Orica read the letter she had translated, Deanna cried again, mesmerized.

The mirror seems to be held by Orica, and she holds it for me to see Deanna's reflection like that.

She says that Deanna's true identity, who is happy and cries for me, is an artificial person (android).

'I knew it had nothing to do with it at all: ......

It didn't matter at all.

I could have sworn to love him forever.

◇◆◆◆◆◆◆.

In the evening, everyone came back and it was announced that the mirror would be fixed.

I look through the mirror at everyone rejoicing.

Perhaps because of what Yumegen told me, the world reflected in the mirror feels even more distant.

The mirror is connected to a planet that is not the earth 2000 years from now.

It's a world too far away.

It is so much a miracle that the mirror is still connected in this way.

I look at Deanna in the mirror.

She has a brighter expression than she has had in a long time.

With spirit crests all over her body, she still has a beautiful profile.

I was talking to Yumegen-san and I had one big question.

--Why me?

You are reading story The Amusing Other World Trading Travelogue of Net Auction Guy at novel35.com

I don't know the basis for it at all.

I don't know why.

Maybe it's just a coincidence.

But they say it's fate.

The Great Wheel of Fortune, 9/10.

9/10. Just one more step and you'll have achieved the "special guidance".

I don't remember how long this guidance has been in effect.

I think it wasn't at the very first ...... blessing I received.

After that, it wasn't called the Great Wheel of Destiny, but ？？？？？？ It must have been a mysterious guide, displayed as such.

Then ...... I think it was ...... I think it was when I took a break from betting on Efta and the elves, and gave a gift to the mayor at the party (technically, Mr. Bill gave a necklace to Mr. Milk Pearl).

Come to think of it--.

Write a letter. Dear Deanna.

"When was the first time you saw me?

I wrote and sent it to him.

The reply came quickly.

'As I told you before, at Elishe's 50th anniversary party. As I told you before, at the 50th anniversary party of Elishe, the master had a look of accomplishment on his face. I knew then that this was the man of destiny.

Come to think of it, when I talked to Deanna a long time ago, she said that the first time she saw me was at that party. And she said that the words I couldn't hear at the time convinced her that I was somehow (・・・・).

The word I couldn't hear at that time was 'destiny (・・・・)'.

And I guess it's the ...... that 'fate' connected with the moment Deanna saw me for the first time at that time.

◇◆◆◆◆.

The five days until the next full moon were jittery, but passed by in a flash.

We had 10 spirit stones safely in place, and we also prepared the demon crystals.

And the evening of the appointed day.

Yumegen-san came to the meeting place in his car.

No way, Runkle 60: ......

Toyota, Land Cruiser. One of the most famous SUVs in the world.

And it's a slightly older 60 series.

I believe it was a 1980s car.

I mean, it's licensed: ....... No, I guess it could be unlicensed: .......

Sorry. Sorry to keep you waiting, man, it was crowded on the 52.

Mr. Yumegen jumped down from the car briskly.

It's really wild. It's not like he's going to be using magic to fix the mirror.

And--.

You must be Ayase.

A woman gets out of the passenger seat.

A clear-skinned beauty with a knit hat so deep it hides her ears (・・・・・・・) and her platinum blonde hair cropped at her neck.

'Nice to meet you, as I'm sure he's told you ......, I'm Serene, a high elf. Nice to meet you today.

Serene smiles softly.

The sense of unreality of being introduced to me as a high elf in this corner of Shizuoka is enough to make me laugh.

That's how much of a high elf Serene was.

It's not like elves are real. No matter which way you look at it, it's an elf.

The inhabitants of the fairy board would have a fit if they saw it.

I'm sure you'll be happy to see me.

'Huh, you're surprised. I could have gone and changed my appearance with a magic tool.

Selene smiles mischievously.

Selene-san says she and Deanna are one and the same, but although they look alike, they are still different people. It's probably because I've never seen Deanna's true face without a spirit crest.

But if you say they're sisters, they're similar enough to believe it.

'...... I was wondering why you were chosen, but now that I've met you, I understand. You're just like him. ...... No, he's just like you.

'He's ......?　Are you talking about Yumegami-san?

You don't look like him.

Yumegen-san is a handsome guy with a foreign face, no matter how you look at it.

I have a completely Japanese face!

Oh ...... Oh, no. I'm sorry. He's a he ....... I call him 'Memories of You'. I have a memorial photo at my parents' house, you should take a look at it the next time you're there.

Huh. ......

A family home. A high elf's family home, which is said to be in the village of the elves?

Well, I was going to go there at some point, and if I remembered, I'd take a look.

After that, I got in Yumegen-san's car and headed to our house.

It's just as well, since his mother is away on the night shift.

We parked the Lancel at a nearby coin-operated parking lot and headed home.

Inviting someone I don't know well to my house feels somehow scary or uncomfortable.

It's not that I don't trust the two of them, but that's not the same thing as this.

Maybe it's because I'm not good at communicating, or maybe it's because I'm afraid of people.

He then invited the two of them into his room.

'It's a bit cramped, but please sit down properly. Oh, here's a mirror.

He hands the mirror to Yumegen.

The mirror shows Deanna's reflection.

''The one reflected here is our high elf ...... Deanna.

Yumegen-san takes the mirror in her hand and Serene-san also looks in from the side.

''I see. It's just like when Selene was there.''

That's true. You're my sister. ...... Well, I can't see the other side.

Serene-san can't see it, apparently.

'So Ms. Yumegami can see the other side.

I can see it, though.

It took quite a bit of effort for Yumegen-san to come to this world.

He managed to pass through a mirror by tricking the god who had jurisdiction over that world.

'...... So, how is that?　Is it going to be fixed?

Behind the mirror, everyone should be there, including Deanna.

I sent the letter to them, and I asked them to put the mirror in its original place in the cellar.

Yeah. Well, that should work. It's just that the mirror has been reduced in size, but its function is still intact.

'Really?　Yes!

'Seriously. It's just that it's been a long time since he and I have used magic. Well, I think he'll be fine.

But he looks confident, though.

It's now 10pm.

I opened the window so that I could get a good view of the full moon, and the preparations for the magic ceremony began.

''I'm just a simple aid with my magic, so I rely almost exclusively on spirit magic.

'Really?　Aren't you going to use that example skill to fix it?

Didn't you say you made a mirror with skills and spirit magic?

''I can't use my skills anymore. I've thrown away the blessing itself.

Oh, I didn't know that.

'Yes. Because one of the conditions for an NPC to get out of that mirror is to break the blessing.

Yeah, I didn't know that.

Well, but yeah. If you're blessed, it means you're going to have God's strings attached to you. So it's not so easy to trick God, then, is it?

I heard that Yumegen-san had a unique job and 5 vocation, so it must have been quite a drastic choice.

'You didn't get the names of the skills I had, did you?　I had to keep it a secret because spoiling it would cut its power in half.

Skills?　Is this a unique skill of 'The Mirage'?

''That's right. The name of the skill is 'The Mirage Skyscraper (The Fatamorgana)'. It's a skill that can create endless illusions. In short, it's a skill that specializes in scaring the crap out of people.

Yumegami-san smiles self-deprecatingly at me.

I think it's an amazing enough skill.

This mirror is a mirror that I imagined in real life that leads to the earth (login port), and I fixed it with spirit magic. In other words, it's an illusion made real. So now that I don't have the skills, if the port function was out, I'd be done with it, but I'm ...... lucky.

Good or bad: .......

It's what's known as a blessing in disguise. It's a good thing that I was able to get to know Yumegen-san and I'm glad that I was able to get to know her .......

I'm ready to go. Let's get on with it.

Serene takes her knit hat off and reveals her long ears.

She even rolls up her arms and is very motivated.

'I'll just have to suck one spirit stone, the first pure spirit power in 150 years: ......

Come to think of it, I thought the elves were going to be the day of the thing if you left them alone.

Every time that happened, I wonder if Yumegami-san was attacked: .......

''Huh, elves are not so safe as long as they don't use their spirit power. Even in this world, as long as you take a proper moonlight bath, you'll be fine. They can also use spirit magic ...... sometimes, though sometimes.

Selene says, as if she could see through what I was thinking.

This is a little embarrassing.

Emitting a faint light, Selene-san sucks out the spirit power from the spirit stone.

In the world over there, spirit power is replenished if you do things normally, so this is the first time she has used the spirit stone in such a luxurious way.

It's like using a wad of cash to keep warm because they don't have any firewood.

''Come on, this time it's fine. Can I have Jan?

Jan?　Oh, you mean Mr. Dreamy.

It's good. It's been a really long time since I've extracted magic power from a crystal.

Okay, I'm going to go.

In front of the mirror shards, a spirit stone, "Heavenly Colored Ruri Group Blue," is placed in front of the mirror shards to tie the path.

The other stones are all for Serene's spirit power replenishment.

Yumegen-san's job is to adjust the frame of the mirror with magic. If she doesn't do that, she is in danger of exploding in size.

Selene chanted a spell and a cherry red light filled the room.

A huge spirit spell, the size of ten spirit stones, is cast.

The magic that twists the cause and effect of the spell brings back what was once surely lost.

After a long, long time.

After a single, dazzling glow.

There, with a mirror that has been restored to its original form.

There was everyone jumping up and down in the mirror, rejoicing.
