When I crawled out of the basement, the construction work was still going on, and the young contractor looked at me with a horrified look on his face. Well, from their point of view, it looks like I've been holed up in the basement for the best part of two hours, so I can't blame them.
I went out and found that the sun was starting to set and the vendors were getting ready to leave.
As a matter of fact, I don't know if the time of the day is ...... at all between this world and that one (there might be an error of a few minutes or seconds), but the fact that it's roughly the same 24 hours a day is the same, and strangely enough, even the height of the day (・・・・・・・) is the same as the one over there. It seems to be the same.
First of all, if the length of the day is different - say, the length of our day is 36 hours - it would be much more difficult to get to and from Earth (there would be some advantages (but). Anyway, when I go back over there, it's in the morning or late at night. If you do the math right, though, you'll be fine. ...... And the change in length of day might make you sick.
The height of the day is ...... not well explained, but it means that if it's 12:00 here, it's 12:00 there, and if it's 6:00 there, it's 6:00 there too, so in short, it's supposed to be a completely different place --There is no time difference at all, and it is the same as being in Japan.
No matter how many times I come and go, there's no deviation in the sense of time, and this seems to be the case.
I don't know about the seasonal changes in this world, but at least (if this is a different planet than Earth) it has the same rotation period as Earth, and also the same longitude as Japan: .......
It's too good of a story, or it's a different world, so I don't know if it's just ....... Well, I can't help but think about it, but maybe I'm lucky. It's just that there's no sensory discrepancy, you know?
I searched outside for a bit and found Hetty talking to a vendor at the stables. I could talk to him and ask him to stop by Rebecca's house with me and go back to the inn ......, but he doesn't seem to have noticed me anyway, so I'll have to sneak back to .......
The maintenance work on the mansion appears to be well underway as far as the outside is concerned. The stables are almost complete and the house looks mostly intact. The area around the well has been cleaned up and the contractors have already been using it a number of times. I'm a little concerned about the water quality of the well that has been neglected for so long: ....... Maybe I'll get a water quality test kit next time.
When I returned to Rebecca's house, I found Deanna was practicing her riding skills. Marina is swinging ...... some kind of halberd single-mindedly ....... I wonder if it's Rebecca's special training .......
Marina's bare hands--.
She was half left and
Hold the halberd firmly in the middle with both hands.
I'm going to have to do everything I can to side-neck him.
Swinging down.
Thrust.
swinging
Shaken up again .......
Well, at first glance, it looks frankly messed up, but I wonder if that's due to Rebecca's guidance: ....... It's difficult for the layman to understand .......
It's the clothesline style!
The pretense has settled down, so I go up to her and ask her about it, and she answers immediately. I've heard this before. The bottom line is that the chambara play ...... is a mess.
"Isn't that what Rebecca told you to do?
Tycho told me to shake it out as I felt it, imagining that the enemy would be there. It's not quite as easy to swing like a clothesline, but I'm just getting the hang of it a little bit!
I'll take the halberd from Marina and shake it up a bit.
It's ............ heavy ....... That's because it doesn't swing like a clothesline, right?
And it looks shabby ...... because I haven't removed the rust yet.
Boom. ......
BOOM! ......
BOOM! ......
...... hmmm.
It's too heavy and can't be waved around continuously like the marina. The handle is made of wood and is not very heavy (although it is a heavy material for a wooden handle), but the metal part at the tip is quite heavy, so you can't help swinging it around.
Marina's halberd is about two meters long, and is a pole arm or some other kind of weapon with an "ear tip that can be used as a spear" on the tip, an "axe" on the side, and a "pick" on the other side of it. Naturally, since it has three different types of armaments, the weight of the tip is quite impressive (it's probably not 10kg, but it looks like it weighs about 5kg).
The opposite tip, the pike-thrust, has a spherical piece of metal about 8cm in diameter attached to it, which is also reasonably heavy and seems to balance out the weight. It's also reinforced with metal to about 50cm from the tip, and it's probably designed to be struck by this side as well.
If you think about it, you can use the spear part to thrust it, the axe part to cut it, the pick part to thrust or hook it, and the stabbing part to strike or thrust it.
If you know how to use it, it's probably much stronger than a sword.
...... is still heavy and has to be a big swing. The power is quite strong, though.
Tycho said, 'swing it big and fast. I tried swinging for a while, but I think it's better to swing around in a circle than to stop and swing again.
You're going around in circles ....... It's like a child's fight killing method .......
But if you're dealing with a human being, or even a demon, that might not be such a bad idea,....... I'm an amateur after all ....... I'll follow the guidance of Shero and Rebecca for that part.
The former deputy commander of a mercenary corps, a specialist in human counterparts, an active monster hunter, and a hunter, there's no better person to study under, isn't there, Mr. Shero? Rebecca is probably more than reasonably skilled, and perhaps Hetty will help you too. If that happens, it will be an all-star army.
Once we're no longer worried about our combat prowess, we'll be able to go shopping and strolling to other towns, and we'll be able to behave freely in other worlds. There's simply some uncertainty in terms of the number of people, but if it's profitable, the number of guards can be increased again.
◇◆◆◆◇
I asked Rebecca to teach me the horses and swords tomorrow, and me, Deanna and Marina took Hetty's carriage back to the inn. As long as the house is complete, we don't have to go back to town, but this is the only way to go.
I'll see you in the lobby in the morning," Hetty said, and disappeared into the room. I would have eaten dinner with him again if I wanted, but I guess he has his own things he wants to do.
Well, I have to do what I have to do too. It's very important.
"...... So, Deanna, Marina. The only reason I was gone this afternoon is because I bought you guys some regular clothes. I can't stay in a one-piece dress forever, you know. More importantly, it's a waste of money. So, well, I brought it with me, so you can try it on right away.
I've bought some clothes from UNIQLO and threw them out of my bag onto the table in my room.
I didn't buy them while I was trying them on, after all. And I can return them. I think it's essential to try them on as soon as possible!
I might take a few pictures for reference, but it's just a size check! Just to make sure it's the right size!
Also, ......, it's nice to be happy, of course. It's a good thing that I chose to buy it.
I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one. And ......, they all look brand new.
That's new. I have some underwear: ....... I also picked some clothes that are easy to exercise and a little cute. You don't see a lot of light-weight clothes like this around here, and I think they'd look good on you both.
It's the first time ...... that I've ever worn new clothes: ...... It's a good thing that you have something to wear if you're bought as a slave,....... Is it at ......?
It's the reaction to these situations that makes the difference in their upbringing, or maybe Deanna is still royalty, or maybe she's a princess at heart, and she seems politely apologetic. In contrast, Marina is mildly panicked, fearful more than necessary, and even pale at every step. ...... I guess I'm not really used to that at heart.
Well, that's both annoying and cute.
I'll separate them by size, one for Deanna and one for Marina.
Both of them are about the same height, but their body shapes are quite different, so I'm a little worried about their sizes. Even if Deanna is fine, Marina is, you know.
'Well, I'll be in the other room, so call me when you're suitably dressed.
With that, I leave the room.
It's brand new, so maybe I should have taken a bath. Well, it's relatively dry here, and the smell of elf sweat and that's a reward, so it's not a problem.
After a while, "It's done!" was called out, so what jumped out at me as I entered the room with a pounding expectation and a digital camera in my heart was .......
...................
...... Oh, um, how about that, master?
Deanna is wearing jeans and a ratty sweatshirt on top.
You're an old man in a slingshot shop. I don't know why you would choose that kind of combination of clothes when you've bought so many different kinds of clothes: ....... It's really a shame that the sweatshirt was a bit too big, and the fact that it's too shabby doesn't look good on the slender Deanna.
On the other hand, Marina, on the other hand, is .......
It's a good thing that you're able to get the most out of your outfit, because it's the first time you've worn such a cute outfit.
Then her cheeks flushed.
She wears a skirt over a pair of border leggings and a young grass-colored tunic on top. She even wears a folded hat on her head.
Nah, how can Marina dress so well in Marina ....... Is it the difference in fashion sense ......?
But Marina shouldn't be at a level where she doesn't even know the word fashion. Or maybe there's such a thing as a knight ...... that's good at dressing up to look good when you're a knight.
'What a contrast ......, too much of a contrast .......
That's right. Marina is too much stuff. It is beautiful to dress simply like I do. In general, Marina says, "The breastplate that master bought for her is a little too tight. I'm sure it's for a princess. Kukunu! d*mn it!
'Hi! Please don't~
Why are you so confident with that sense of style? ...... Deanna .......
◇◆◆◆◆◆◆.
In the end, we returned Marina's bra because it was a size ...... or rather the cups didn't fit. I'm going to replace it with a sweatshirt to take it down a size, but the rest of the clothes fit perfectly, and I have to say, both of them are fine without lifting the pants.
As for Marina's bras, I'll have to measure them properly and buy them online at ....... Well, the camisole, which also functions as a bra, is hard to wear, so I'll let her work with that for a while.
The master has to take care of his slave's food, clothing and shelter, so it's not easy. It's hard work because he has to prepare all the underwear, too.
Next time I go back to return a pair of shoes, I'll buy a pair of shoes too. I could also stock up on safety shoes that I could sell over here too: ......
It's a good idea to go over to the other side of the country and shop with the three of us from the mirror. You can even try them on. ...... is too conspicuous in any case.
