Finding Your Way Home In Another World With The Gender Change Skill/Shadow & The Jester [Remake]
Chapter 21: The Mysterious Woman (II)

I slowly opened my eyes, then the first sight I saw was a vast blue sky.

“Uh... Where am I?” I muttered that while stroking my eyes.

When I muttered that, suddenly someone answered my murmur.

“Good Morning Darling”

When I looked towards the direction the voice came from, there was a woman smiling at me.

The woman was 20 years old, she had long white hair with purple eyes. The woman also wore a luxurious black and purple yukata-style kimono, then the handle had a white frill.

Ahh. Now I remember. It's not a dream, is it?

Yes that's right, this woman is Niji. He seemed to have returned to his previous form. But wasn't she previously wearing a Dress? Why is she wearing a kimono? Ahh I really don't understand...

Because I didn't find the answers to those questions, so I decided to stop thinking about it.

Huh...

I let out a heavy sigh and began to stare towards Niji. By the time she saw me looking at her, Niji started to smile gently.

For some reason, he now looks like a child. So I reflexively stroked his head while smiling gently at him.

“Uwoww!! Da-dar-darling stroked my head!! I'm really very happy!! It's okay if I have to die now” she says it while holding her blushing cheek.

When I saw that, I involuntarily laughed. By the time Niji saw me laughing, he started tilting his head to the side in confusion.

“What's Darling?”

When Niji asked that, I immediately stopped laughing and started to open my mouth.

“Good morning also Niji” I said that while smiling gently.

When I saw that I smiled gently at her, inexplicably Niji turned her face away from me and began to cover her face with both hands.

Seeing this, I unconsciously laughed again. When Niji saw me laughing again, he started puffing his cheeks and started looking at me sharply.

After about 5 minutes, I finally started opening my mouth again.

“So now where are we in Niji?” I asked that while looking around.

When I hear questions from me. Niji immediately stopped looking at me and started to stand up, then he started walking towards the chair he had previously been sitting in. I also started to get up and follow him, then I walked towards the chair I had previously occupied.

After we both sat down. Niji started pouring tea into the glass that was in front of me. For some reason, when he did that, he looked very charming.

By the time he finished pouring it, he started to sit back down and finally he started to open his mouth to speak.

“Are you not angry if I call you ‘Darling’?” he asked that while looking at me with worried eyes.

At the sight of that, she somehow looked more and more like my older sister. Maybe that's why I don't really care about him calling me “Darling”.

Is this really a reality? Or just a dream? I really don't care anymore. But only one thing is certain.

With that in mind, I started to open my mouth.

“Terupon, I no longer care” I say it indifferently.

Then upon hearing that, Niji was immediately shocked. He didn't seem to expect that I would take it that easily. Before he could say anything, I immediately cut him off and continued my words.

When I heard my statement. Niji was immediately startled and dropped the glass he was holding.

I immediately tilted my head when I saw that.

He started shaking and looked me in the eye with eyes that seemed to say “Are you going to go?”. When I saw that, I immediately smiled gently at him while starting to open my mouth.

“I Just want to know where we are right now, but if you don't want to tell him well that's okay” I said that with a tone that seemed to not care.

At the moment of seeing that, Niji started to tightly grip his clothes while looking down. I don't know why he looks upset about something.

After a pause of about 5 minutes, he finally began to open his mouth and speak.

“Darling, would you hate me if I answered him honestly?” he asked that with a trembling tone.

At the sight of this, I began to stare at him again. When he noticed my gaze, he immediately turned his gaze away from me, and began to stare down while clasping his clothes tighter.

After about 5 minutes, I opened my mouth.

“Why should I hate you?” I asked that in an astonished tone to Niji.

Upon hearing that, Niji was immediately startled and started to open his mouth to speak.

“Neh aren't you mad at me? I made a marriage contract unilaterally with you know!! The contract can't even be broken by anyone!! Did after hearing that you still not get mad at me!!” Niji said that with a furious tone.

Then as he said that, tears began to fall bit by bit from his eyes. When I saw that, I was immediately surprised. I can't believe he had such fears, and somehow he looked like me when I was a kid.

As I recalled the memories of my childhood, I accidentally started stroking his head again.

By the time I did that, inexplicably the tears that fell from her eyes became increasingly heavy and she began to hug me tightly.

Then I started to open my mouth to speak.

“It's okay, you're not alone anymore now” I said that while stroking his head.

When she heard my statement, inexplicably her cries became louder, and she began to hug me tighter.

When I saw this, I decided to leave it like this until she stopped crying.

On the other hand when Souji woke up in a vast expanse of grassland. Somewhere in the castle. There was a sound of metal clanking that kept ringing.

Desing! Desing!

The sound kept echoing in that place. Finally there was another sound besides the metal clang heard.

“Aizawa-kun what's wrong with you?! If you keep going like this, you will never change!!”

The voice came from one of the people there. The man was a 25-year-old woman, with short black hair and light blue eyes. It was Ryuuji Asahi.

“I know!!”

Then the person who answered the question was a 17-year-old woman, with white hair tied to the side and light blue eyes, she was Aizawa Saki.

If you want to find out the reason why the two of them are dueling right now, then let's go back some time before this duel started.
