I dreamed

In the drea

Even thoughthat I'?

The scenery in front ofspeed

It's like at the speed of sound or the speed of light, flying up and down irregularly

I don't understand why things turned out this way

I only believe that if I'm not careful, ah, no, even if I'm really careful I'll lose speed and fall

I concentrate in this endlessly changing scene and find a safer place to land on

Even if you ask why, I don't know either

I only feel that I will die if I don't do this

But I'es faster than my eyes can keep up with, almost like a slot machine's spin[1]

I concentrate and pour mana into my body

And then, just for an instant, I slon

This is bad, I'

Just when I think of that, I see the ground It is a land that's flat

Falling into the sea is bad, falling on a mountain is bad also, so is the forest, but if it's on a level land

As my hopes rise, I descend

In any case, I e to successfully brake and land on the reddish-brown earth

My consciousness gets interrupted

The moment my eyes open, I find myself in a completely white world

There's nothing in this world, I immediately realize this is a dream

A lucid drea

And my body is really heavy

[ Eh?]

I look down at ht

That's the 34 year old body that I got used to looking at it

And at the same time, I remember my past

Regret, discord, crude, and

Once I think that those 10 years were like a drearows

I've returned

I intuitively realized that

And I actually accepted that fact so easily

It was indeed a dream

Even though it has been such a long dream, I am happy

Born in a warirls for 10 years

Still, I want to enjoy it more

I see

Everything has ended

I can feeldimmer

This drea when I wake up

What a for, really

It's unthinkable for a happy and favorable life to be given to me

I suddenly realize there's a strange fellow over there

A blank white face with a grin

There are no special features

When I realize that's a face, hts immediately escape me

I can't remember

Perhaps because of this reason, this person gives off the impression that he's covered completely with mosaic

But I feel like he's a warm person

[Hey, it's our firstit seems hello, Rudeus-kun]

Under my depressed status, I am chatted up by an obscene-like person covered in mosiac

This person has a neutral voice, I can't tell whether if it's a male or female

This person is wearing mosiac, it should be fine if I treat it as a female and think of the erotic side

[You can hear ht?]

Ah, of course I can hear you

hello, hello

[Good, good, it's a good thing you can greet]

Even though I can't make a sound, I seem to be able to communicate with this person

I'll continue talking like this

[Not bad, you adjust quite well]

That's not true at all

[Mmfufu You do have it]

Well then, who ht you be?

[I'm just as you can see]

As you can see?

Are you the Matchless Warrior Spellman?[2]

[Spellman? Who's that, is that person similar to me?]

Yes, it's very similar, he's even covered in mosaic too

[I see, your world also has so like that]

But there's no one like you

[Is there no one like me Well never ami][3]

Haa Hitogami[4]

[That's an indifferent response]

No

Also, isn't your appearance a little late hm?

Shouldn't you come out a little earlier huh?[5]

[Come out a little earlier? What does that mean?]

Nothing at all Please continue

[The things about you, I've watched the life]

Peeping is a very interesting thing

[Yes, it really is interesting That is why I have always been protecting you]

Protecting me

You're quite condescending hmm

I feel really irritated that I' looked down upon huh

[That's really cold I thought you were troubled so I talked to you]

The people who talk to soood people

[I'm your ally]

Haa!

You're h

Back in my past life, there were people like these

A bunch of people who don't have any responsibilities Just think about what happened after those people chased me out[6]

Right now your words have this kind of vibe I can't trust you

[I'm a little stumped if you say this much

Well, in any case, I'll give a suggestion]

I don't need any advice

[Whether you want to follow my advice or not is totally your freedom]

Ahh This type

About advice…Guiding hts, not from the inside, but from the outside[7]

Even if I try earnestly toto it

Anything positive that you achieved will only be added on in despair and thrown back at you

Just like this!

What sort of drea me, what kind damned parallel universe is this!

Doing soood about life

Is this your way of doing things? To bringmy life to the fullest!

[No no, please don't be s I want to tell you aren't about your past life, they are things related to your current life]

Hm? Then my body now is?

[That's your spiritual body It's not the physical body]

Spiritual body

[Of course, your physical body is also fine]

Then, this is just a dream?

When I wake up, I won't go back to that shi+tty body again right?

[Yup This is a dreao back to how it looks like Are you relieved now?]

I am relieved I see, so this is a dream

[Ah, but this isn't just adirectly to your spiritual body I'm surprised, you have such a difference between your spiritual body and physical body]

You're really direct

Because I'o back to where I am?

[What, how can that be possible? Even if it's me, outside the 6 surface worlds, I cannot send you back Don't you even know such an obvious thing?]

Huh what's obvious and what's not obvious, how should I know that?

[You are quite right]

Wait If you can't send me back then you're not the one who transferred me to this world?

[Well In the first place, I won't do so is what the evil dragon God would do]

Hmm

The evil dragon God hmm

[So, do you want to hear it? The advice]

I don't want to hear it

[Ehh! Why not?]

Even though the situation right now isn't anything good, you are too suspicious

I should not even bother to listen to anything at all from someone like you

[Suspicion hm?]

Ah, suspicious You have the same If one listens to a liar, one will be manipulated

[It's not a sca like if you want to listen to my advice or stuff like that]

Isn't that just a strategy

[Just believeeee me]

Even though you're a God, you're crying in such a shameful voice

When another God froe, of course it's suspicious

Also, people who keep bringing up things about trust are definitely liars

A book that I liked to read had that written in it, so it's definitely not wrong

[I won't say so like that, really Just listen to what I have to say once]

What?

In the first place I have prayed somy past life

You didn't co advice?

[No, no, your God and I are two different beings I did say I will help you froht?]

That's why I said I cannot trust you It's not enough with just lip service If you want me to believe you, show me a miracle and let me see it

[I'ht, no one else can do it except me]

You're just talking Even if you don't use a drea

[You're right You already say you cannot trust s like that]

Die? Why?

[The Magic continent is a terrible place There's al , coe is very different Are you really able to continue from here? Do you have that confidence?]

Huh? Magic Continent? Wait a moment, what do you mean?

[You got sucked in by that huge area-of-effect Mana calamity, and you were teleported]

Mana calaht?

[Yes, it's that light]

Teleportation So that's a teleportation

It's not only ot involved in this

Buina should be fine since it's quite far from there

What has happened there?

[You're askingto trust me? You refused to believe me just then]

You're right I got deceived so easily

[I can only say that everyone is praying for your safety Praying for you to co]

That'sAnyone will do that

[Is that so? Soht that if you disappeared froht?]

It's a lie if I said I didn't think that I disappeared in my previous world where I wasn't needed Even now I still have that thought

[But you're not someone who isn't needed in this world Please return safely]

Ahh You're right

[But if you follow , you have a very high chance of going back]

Wait Before that I want to ask about your goal Why are you obsessed with me?

[You really talk a lot It's because the way you're living is interesting Isn't that enough?]

The people who act si are certainly bad people

[Is that hoorks in your previous world?]

Because the people who act because things are interesting only enjoyothers on the palms of their hands

[Perhaps I have that part within me]

Also, what is so interesting about me

[Rather than say it's interesting, why not say it's n world Giving you advice and letting you interact with all sorts of people What kind of ending will it be?]

I see It's like giving ahow it accoerated pastime you have

[Hah You Have you forgotten my first question?]

Your first question?

[Then I'll ask again Do you have the confidence? The confidence to live on in this coerous place]

No

[Then isn't it better to listen to ain, it's your freedom to choose whether you want to follow my advice]

Fine, I understand I understand Advice or whatever, can you just say it already? In the end you've said soand tedious Just tell h

[ Yes, yes Rudeus, listen carefully When you wake up, please rely on the guy beside you, and then help him]

The mosaic God only leaves these lines behind, and disappeared while leaving an echo behind

When I wake up it's already evening

What comes into my view is a star-filled sky

There are wooden branches burning and crackling

The shadows made from the flames dance from side to side

I see beside a bonfire

Of course, I do not have thea bonfire, and also do not have thea camp

The last memory that I have Ah

The sky's colors suddenly changed, and ere surrounded by a white light

And then, it was that dream

damn it

I saw an irritating dream

[Hah!]

I look down at my body in a panic

It is not that slow and fat body that was unable to do anything The young and strong Rudeus has returned

As I confirm that fact, the earlier memory that was like a dream starts to fade

I exhale in relief

[Tch]

This damnable Human God really makes me feel unpleasant all over

But this is really good It seems that I'm still alive in this world

There are s that I have not done At least let ician[8][9]

I try to get up

My back really hurts Is it because I had been lying on the ground since the landing?

Underneath the evening sky, the cracked land stretched out

There see here There is not even an insect here Other than the bonfire's crackling I can't hear anything

Where is this?

At least in my memories I didn't see a place like this

The Asura Kingdorasslands

Did the white light change things to this scenery?

Aah, no

That's not it It's not like that

Hitogami said it before, I have been teleported

To the Magic continent

Then, this place should be the Magic continent

It ht Oh

Ghyslaine and Eris!

After I stand up I turn and look behindonto my cuffs

Why is there aher body?

I didn't wear so like that

Well, ladies first, I guess

Behind her is the ”The Arrogant Water Dragon King” Magic staff[10]

In any case, she doesn't look like she's hurt, and I feel relieved once again

Perhaps Ghyslaine did so for her

Even though I want to wake Eris up, I feel that she will findso I leave her alone

Where's Ghyslaine?

I look around s once more, and there is someone at the bonfire that I didn't notice earlier

He sits there withoutat me

I realize in an instant that this person is not Ghyslaine

He's a male

He sits there withoutat me

But I don't feel he's being cautious of us

Rather, hht

Like an Onee-chan walking to a shy cat

Because we are children, he must be worried that we are afraid of him

So there are no signs of hostility

The moment I relax, I notice his appearance

Ereen hair

A ruby-like stone on his forehead that's like an eye

Under his arm is a trident

The Superd race

His face is full of scars

His eyes are sharp, his expression soleer about him

I think back to what Roxy taught me

[Don't get close to the Superd race and do not talk to them]

In a second I prepare to grab Eris and escape with everything I have, but I reami's words, and stop

[Rely on the man beside you, and help him]

That self-termed God's words cannot be trusted

After saying what he wanted to say, a strange man immediately appeared before us, so why should I trust him?

Also, it is the Superd race

I heard fros about this race

Even if that God said so on him then help him out”, why should I believe him?

Who should I trust?

A Human God whom I don't even know, or Roxy

It goes without saying, the one that I will believe in is Roxy

So I should run away right now

No It's precisely because of how this situation turned out, that it could be [Advice] If I had no other information on this situation, I would definitely run away

With that result, if I run away successfully What will happen after that?

I take a look at the surroundings This place is dark and it is soround is full of cracks and covered with rocks

[Teleported to Magic Continent]

If I believe that line, then this is the Magic Continent

Coe dream because of that Human God's impact

The dream where I flew everywhere around the world

Mountains, seas, forests, valleys Places where ould immediately die

If that dreaht be possible that we have been teleported

Right now I'ic Continent If we run away, it could mean that we are stranded in this vast place

In the end, there is really no other choice to speak of

Escaping froainst hiic Continent alone, which is a bad one

Or, should I bet on it? When the day breaks, I'll bet on the fact that there's a village nearby?

Stop joking

Don't I clearly understand how difficult it would be when I don't know the way?

Calm down Breathe in deeply

I will not trust the Huuy?

Look closely at hiht now?

That's uneasiness An expression that's nation

At the very least, he's not a monster without emotions

Roxy says not to approach the Superd Race But in truth she also said that she has never met with them

I know the concepts of <discrimination>,

and <witch hunt=””> There's the possibility that the Superd Race has been misunderstood Roxy shouldn't have the intention to tellfalse, but it's a possibility that they are misunderstood

Froerous At least I don't feel any questionable vibes like that Huh, based on his appearance, one will still feel guarded towards him

Then, I'll talk to him

I make my decision

[hello]

[ Aah]

I got a reply froreet him What should I ask next?

[Are you the er of God-sama?][11]

Thatthe question

[Even though I don't understand the intention of what you asked, you fell from the sky The children from the Human Race are very weak, so I made a bonfire to warm your bodies]

The naami> didn't appear Is it possible that the Human God didn't speak to this man?

If I believe in the words [Because it's interesting], then it's not just based on my actions

It is also based on that Hu our interactions

If that's the case, then thisa little more

[We're saved by you Thank you very much]

[ Are your eyes unable to see?]

[Hah?]

I suddenly get a strange question

[No, I can see very ith both of my eyes?]

[Then, you greithout hearing stuff about the Superd's race from your parents?]

[Leaving ainst the Superd's race So like, do not approach them]

[ Is it fine for you not to observe your shi+shou's guidance?]

He slowly asks, as if to ascertain so

[You, even when you see me, are not afraid?]

I'm not afraid I don't feel fear, but I am suspicious

However, I don't need to say that out loud

[It would be very rude if I were to be afraid of the person who saved me]

[You're a really strange child]

He shows a baffled expression

Strange, hm

Well, it's probably normal to avoid the Superd Race

I read about the History on Laplace After the war, the Superd Race was persecuted

Even though the persecution towards the other Magic races has faded, the Superd Race is very different

It's almost like how the American soldiers faced the japanese soldiers, where every race here is prejudiced against the Superd race[12]

It is almost as if there is a statement like this: If there's absolute evil in this world, it's the Superd Race

He throws the dry branches into the bonfire Itnoise I'm not sure if it is because of this noise, Eris utters a [Nuuu] and seems to wake up Perhaps she's already awake

Uh oh, that's a bad thing If Eris wakes up she will definitelyturns to chaos, I'll at least introduce myself first

[I am Rudeus Greyrat May I please have your name?]

[Ruijerd Superdia][13][14]

Specific Magic races will take the Race's name as their surname

Using the fa is basically only what the Human race will do

Sometimes other races will ask that out of curiosity

Just to add on, Roxy's surnaurdia It ritten in Roxy's dictionary

[Ruijerd-san I think that the girl here is about to wake up soon Because she's a girl who's a little noisy, I'll apologize in advance I'm sorry]

[It's fine, I have gotten used to it]

If it's Eris, it will not be strange for her to hit Ruijerd's face once she sees it In order not to fight against him, it's important to stop her early

[Excuse me]

I glance at Eris's face and I think it's still safe for now

I look at Ruijerd again

Under the direatly resembles tribal clothes

The ie is like an American Indian Both his vest and trousers have embroidery on them

[Mu]

It makes me feel bad

He has a different feel froood impression of him

[Where is this place?]

[This is the Northeastern area of the Magic Continent, Bigoya It's near the Kishi+risu city]

[Magic Continent]

If I remember correctly, the Kishi+risu city is at the Northeastern area in the Magic continent That is, if his words can be trusted

[Why did we drop here?]

[If you don't know it yourselves, I won't know it either]

[Hmm, that's true]

Because it's a fantasy world, it isn't surprising if anything happens

Even so an entrance happened, this ht not be the result of a coincidence That is to say, the possibility that it has soh

But if this is just a coincidence e got involved, then we are fortunate to simply survive

[In any case, I am thankful for your help]

[You don't need to thank ?]

[The Asura Kingdom in the Central continent, the city Roa in the Fedoa territory]

[Asura It's very far away, hmm]

[Indeed so]

[But you don't need to worry, I'll send you home]

The Northeastern Magic continent and Asura Kingdom They are at the opposite ends of the world It's as far as Las Vegas to Paris

Furthermore, in this world, shi+ps only set off at specific areas That is e need to travel by land until we reach a suitable location to take a shi+p

[Do you have any clues as to what happened?]

[Clues When the sky started to glow, a person called Aruht came before us, and said he was here to stop the phenoushed forth suddenly The nextup here]

[Aruius is on the ood that it ended with just teleportation]

[You're co ould have died immediately]

Even when Ruijerd heard the na Perhaps Ruijerd is a person who is not affected by anything

[By the way, have you heard of the existence of Hitogami?]

[Hitogami[15]? No Is that the name of a human?]

[Ah, no, it's fine if you have never heard of it]

I don't think he's lying

I can't think of a reason why he would hide the knowledge about the Human God

[Nevertheless, Asura kingdom hmm]

[It's very far right? It's okay You can just send us to a nearby village]

[No, A Superd warrior will not change any decisions that he makes]

His words are stubborn but steady

Even without the Huht trust Ruijerd

But I'm still suspicious

[But it's the other end of the world, you do know that right?]

[A child shouldn't worry too much]

He timidly places his hand and strokes my head

He relaxes when he sees that I didn't refuse him

This person, I wonder if he likes kids?

But it's not like the trip is 10 h he said that he will send us back, it is difficult to believe him

[Are you able to speak the language? Do you have o?]

He asks, and I reflect on his words

I have been using the Hue to speak to hiic Race is able to reply fluently in the Hue

[I can speak the Magic God's language I know Magic so I can earnme to a place with people, I can find my oay]

I try to steer the conversation into rejecting his would advance how the Human God expects them to be, and I think it's better to avoid that

But after thinking through my words laden with suspicion, Ruijerd's steady reply comes back

[Is that so Then let uard It will hurt the pride of the Superd Race if I leave children to fend for themselves]

[You really are a proud race]

[It's a pride that has been scarred]

With this joke, I laughed with a haha[16]

Ruijerd also curls the corners of his lips and laugh

It's different from the suspicious smile from the Human God, it's a warm smile

[In any case, we should first go to a village that I am familiar with]

[Yes]

Even though I don't really trust the Human God, perhaps this man can be trusted

At least until we reached the village, I'll trust him

After a while, Eris's eyes snap open She sits up in an instant and looks around everywhere She soon begins to feel uneasy, but shows obvious relief after aze from Ruijerd's eyes

[KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!]

A scream that is fro down, and then she tries to stand up to flee, but falls down flat onto the ground

She's frightened to the point of freezing altogether

[NOOOOoooooooOOOOOOo!]

Eris falls into panic

But even if she doesn't struggle about, she is unable to craay

She crouches there, tre, and raises her voice to scream

[No! Noooo! Scary! Soscaryscaryscary! Help ! No, no! I don't want to die! I don't want to die! Sorry! Sorry! I' I'm so sorry! Because I'm such a coward I'm so sorry! I can't keep my promise So shorrrryyyyyy, wahhhh, wahhhhhhhhhh!]

Finally she curls up like a turtle hiding in its shell and cries

I shudder after witnessing that scene

(That, Eris, is so frightened)

Eris is a strong willed girl Her motto is most likely [I'm the queen of the entire world]

She's really violent and selfish, and in any case she will hit you before thinking it through She's pretty much that sort of child

Is it possible that I e mistake?

Is it possible that the Superd Race is someone who absolutely cannot be approached?

I look at Ruijerd He's still calm

[That's the normal reaction]

How's that possible?

[Is it because I'm abnormal?]

[You're abnormal But]

[But?]

[You're not bad]

Ruijerd's face seen from the side looks terribly lonely

I reflect on that for athe footsteps, Eris quivers in fright

I slowly stroke her back Thinking back, every ti, Grandmother would stroke me on the back just like this

[Al---right, don't be afraid, don't be afraid]

[Hicc, what do you mean don't be afraid! Th-that's a Superd!]

I don't knohy she's so frightened Because, it's that Eris She's the Eris that will bare her fangs when she faces Ghyslaine There should be nothing that will make her afraid

[Is it so frightening?]

[B, because, the Su, Superd race will! E, eat children! They will eat children right? Hiccc]

[He won't eat you]

He won't eat us right? I look at Ruijerd, and he shakes his head

[I don't eat children]

Right?

[Here now, he says he won't eat children!]

[B, b, because! Because he's a Superd! He's froic Race!]

[Even though he's froe]

[It's not the language problem!]

Eris raises her head up and growled at s to the real Eris

[Oh, are you fine with that? If you don't curl yourself up, you will get eaten right?]

[Don't treat me like an idiot!]
