I GOT A CHEAT ABILITY IN A DIFFERENT WORLD, AND BECOME EXTRAORDINARY EVEN IN THE REAL WORLD
part 2
T/n: Sorry, I was wrong, so change Miwa's name to Miu now.
...----------------------------------------------------------------...
“OK, we've arrived now, but..”.
I walked around the area outside the forest, but I could not see the appearance of Lexia and the others.
“Hmm... Night, did we come a little too early?”
"…Woof."
"Hmm? Night?"
I called out to Night, but for some reason, Night only gave a small nod with a kill mark. Could he be wary because I wasn't paying attention? I need to be more careful.
Just when I decided to do so, I saw something approaching from far away from the forest.
"Hmm? That's…"
If I look closely, I see a beautiful train surrounded by many soldiers.
“Ooh, I've never seen a train before! But there's no right way around here, is that okay?”
I've heard that you can ride a train in some places on Earth, but at least I've never been on a train or seen one, so I was really surprised to see the train. However, there was a lot of grass around here, not asphalt, round rocks, or even gravel roads like on Earth, or anything suitable for carriage wheels.
It would usually break if the train drove here, right?
Because I was worried about that, the carriage stopped when it was some distance away, and someone got down from inside and then approached us, followed by the soldiers.
When I got to a position where I could see their faces well, I realized that those soldiers were the Lexia-san guards I had met before, and when I take a closer look, I can also see Owen-san and Lexia-san.
And when they were about to reach me, I saw something.
…uh? I'm standing here waiting, but shouldn't I be the one to head towards them? Ugh, I did something terrible…
Inevitably I raised my head, but Lexia-san and the others were already right in front of me.
…I think this is what they call incomprehension. And the other party is royalty; it wouldn't be disrespectful or what?
As I waited, frightened and frightened, Owen-san looked at me and raised his hand, and then stiffened when he realized something. Hm? What the hell is going on?
As I was wondering, Owen-san spoke up while moving her cheeks.
“A-are you.. Yu-Yuuya-dono..?”.
“Eh? Oh forgive me! That's right; it's me!"
When Owen-san heard my voice, she let out a sigh of relief, and Lexia-san, who was behind her, inexplicably had a twinkle in her eyes.
“Yuuya-sama, your helmet is amazing! That looks good on you!”
“B-really? Thank you very much."
...
...
“Aah. So, Yuuya-dono. What helmet is that? I don't think you wore it when we met earlier ... "
"This one? On the way here, I met a monster named bloody ogre lord, and I got it when I defeated it. The design is the same as my armor, so I thought it would be just right.”
As I said that, the soldiers listening to our conversation started buzzing.
“O-oy, mr bloody ogre he said..?”
"I think it's the name of the monster that destroyed a small country long ago ..."
“If it appears, isn't it something that the country needs to beat with all its resources?”
“Yes, but didn't he just say that he had defeated her as if he was taking a walk?”
“She is in a different dimension..”
“Ehm..?”
Did I say something strange…? Ah, maybe what they're talking about is that this mask really suits me? Then I hope you will say it clearly ...
"Hm! Ah. Yuuya-dono. Anyway, we will go to the royal palace now...is it okay?”
"Oh yeah. It's okay."
“I understand.. Then, once again.”
When Owen-san said that, the soldiers, along with Owen-san herself, simultaneously saluted. As I was overwhelmed by the sight, Lexia-san, who was in the middle, bowed politely.
“Thank you for accepting our invitation. We will now escort Yuuya-sama to the royal palace.”
“Y-yes ..”
Um... Suddenly I feel bad, but what should I do? Despite my nervousness, Owen-san and Lexia-san tried to take me to the carriage parked nearby.
"Then, right here."
“Ya... ah, forgive me! Please wait a minute!”
"Yes?"
I was so swept away in the atmosphere of Lexia-san and the others that I forgot to tell them about Night!
“Um, actually, there is another child I want to bring──.”
“Grrrrrr.r... awooo!”
“Kyaa!”
"Lexia-sama!"
"Nigh!"
Just as I was about to introduce Night, Night, who had been invisible all this time, jumped at Lexia! As I rushed over to Lexia-san, I saw something go through the place where Lexia-san was standing just a moment ago.
When I turned my gaze to the end of that passing object, I saw the tree behind where Lexia-san was standing just a moment ago had been cut down. If Night had not pushed Lexia-san down, she would have been cut down like a tree in front of me right now.
"What's wrong with this dog?"
"Lexia-sama, are you okay?"
“Y-yes. I'm fine, but..”
Apart from the stunned Lexia-san and the others, I immediately raised my vigilance and looked around with Night.
"Night ... is it because you noticed this that you erased your presence?"
"Woof."
“I have many questions, but at the moment we have to do something. In the meantime, let's take care of the person who attacked...!”.
"Woof!"
As I said that, I saw something invisible that attacked Lexia-san earlier, and I immediately took out the [Omni-Sword] and cut it off. Then, I felt a touch that seemed to cut through something. This feeling is ... "Yet"?
Luna's face flashed through my mind, but I immediately shook my head to erase that thought. No. It can't be him…
“Yuuya-dono! What the hell is going on here?"
“I don't know what's going on, but it looks like someone's after Lexia-san! And the person who pushed Lexia-san earlier was the little guy I wanted to introduce you to; his name was Night.!”
"What's? So the dog is on our side?”
"Yes! I will explain the details later, so for now; please protect Lexia-san!”
"…I understand!"
For starters, this will reduce my need to devote a little of my attention to Lexia-san.
Then…
"…night. Do you know where the person who carried out this attack is?”
"…Woof."
Night answered briefly and ran towards the forest entrance. I immediately followed him, and at the same time, I activated the [Assimilation] skill, although I was not sure if it would work. And right after we entered the entrance of the Great Demon Nest, that person was there.
“Ap...where did they disappear..?”.
A dark green-robed figure looked around busily, seemingly having lost sight of us. He has a mask on his face as well, so we can't see his expression.
"Well!"
"What-what? Gaaah!”
As I approached the figure from behind, I kept my strength to a certain extent and blew the figure wide open. The black masked figure was thrown and smashed into the tree, knocking him unconscious.
When I approached the man timidly, the mask on his face had fallen to the ground. And then──.
“...Why Luna..”
The one who fainted there secretly was Luna, who had been training in this Great Demon Nest with me. As I looked at Luna, who had fainted in front of me in a daze, I felt the presence of someone approaching from outside the Great Demon Nest.
“Yuuya-sama!”
"Lexia-sama!"
When Lexia-san came to us, she turned her attention to Luna, who was unconscious in front of her, and her eyes widened.
“Eh? dia...”
“...He's after Lexia-san.”
I wondered what to do, but I decided to be honest with him. I realized that lying here and defending Luna would not help. However, Lexia-san, who noticed that I was acting strangely, looked at me with concern.
“Yuuya-sama? Could it be... this girl is an acquaintance of Yuuya-sama?”
"………Yes."
How could Luna, even if I thought of this or that, I would not get an answer from the fainted Luna. However, if I think about it calmly, there are many strange things.
The fact that a normal-looking girl who doesn't have a single weapon and is dressed normally is alone in the Great Demon Nest where even Owen-san, the knight and warrior of the country, is in danger, is, and most importantly, it's about the Night's Nest.'s actions before finding Luna.
Perhaps it was because Night had subconsciously sensed something about Luna, so when he found Luna, he did not try to move willingly. When I realized this, I looked at Night and saw that he had an apologetic expression on his face. Maybe she thought she should have held me back harder when I tried to help Luna. Because then I don't have to meet Luna and I don't have to feel this way.
I made a wry smile at Night for taking great care of me and stroking her gently. And then I approached Luna and lifted her up as she was.
“...Lexia-san, forgive me. Can you wait a minute?”
“Eh?”
"I just want to take care of this girl in my house."
“It...”
“Will you allow me to have one last conversation with him? I just can't see this girl as a bad person in any way.”.
I know it's a ridiculous request that wouldn't normally be granted. I asked him to leave the person who tried to kill him, even if only for a while. Moreover, Lexia-san is a noble.
Even if I say I want Luna, who attacked Lexia-san like that, not only to talk to her but also to treat her, it is usually──.
"It's okay."
"Are you sure?"
I was so surprised to hear him say so quickly. Are you sure you can decide easily? Despite my confusion, Lexia-san laughed like a brat and shouted at Owen-san, who was following her from behind.
“Owen! I'll be at Yuuya-sama's house again in a moment!”
"Huh?"
“Hah... Huuuhhh?”
"Lexia-sama, what are you doing?"
The soldiers screamed in astonishment just like me. And Owen-san's face turned pale. I was also stunned, Lexia-san patted my shoulder and said:
“Come, quickly go! Otherwise, Owen will catch us.”
“Eh, yes!”
I still can't understand the situation, making me confused, Lexia-san deepened into the Great Demon Nest. Seeing that, I realized that he was seriously following me home, so I hurriedly chased after Lexia-san.
Then Lexia-san said to me as I chased after her.
“I'm also curious about what kind of relationship Yuuya-sama and the girl have, so... if I don't know why, it's okay if I just go with you, right? And I also wonder why that girl attacked me too!”
“A-are you sure? It was just my subjective opinion that this girl is not a bad person, but.”.
Yes, in my subjective opinion, I just can't see Luna as a bad person. If he really was a bad person, it could be that Night would defeat him without question, but…
“I don't care if it's subjective or not. I'll listen to you because I want to hear what you're saying! Let's stay away from Owen for now!”
Owen-san approached from behind us with incredible speed, with Lexia-san running over in great delight as she said that.
“Lexia-sama! Wait ... are you really going to leave? Explain it! Please explain that to me eeee!”
When I heard Owen-san's voice shouting behind me, I did dogeza to her in my mind. I'm so sorry. But there are some circumstances here as well...!
I frantically apologized in my mind and grabbed Lexia-san's hand.
“Eh? Yuuya-sama?”
"We're in a hurry, so I'll use my magic."
"Magic…?"
I immediately activated my teleportation magic and went straight home with Lexia-san, Luna, and Night.
...------------------------------------------------...
“This... teleportation magic!?”
When I returned home with magic, Lexia-san, who was initially unable to understand the situation, rolled her eyes in surprise. While looking at Lexia-san at the side, I moved to put Luna to sleep at home in this other world.
And when I put Luna to sleep safely, Lexia-san came over.
“... Yuuya-sama. Can you explain it to me? ”
...
...
"….Yes This girl.. Luna is the girl I met by chance when I was living my life as usual in this Great Demon Nest.”
"Continue?"
“...No, considering what happened this time, maybe it was no coincidence. After all, the truth was, I saved him from the attack of a group of elite goblins at the entrance of the Great Demon Nest. And then we started training together for a while.”
At first, I thought she was a mysterious girl, but given her circumstances, I guess she knew that Lexia-san would come to this place today, she said, and he came to the Great Demon Nest as a start to aim at it.
I then told Lexia-san about the training I spent with Luna to this day, and properly explained my relationship with her. Then…
“This is unfair... unfair!”
"Huh?"
“Because he was with Yuuya-sama the whole time while he was training, right? I wish I could be with you too!”
“E-eeh?”
I don't know how to respond to this unexpected reaction. However, despite my confusion, Lexia-san suddenly asked me with a serious expression.
"So, what are you going to do with this girl, Yuuya-sama?"
"As I explained to you before we came here, I'll take care of him, and when he wakes up, I'll ask him about the case."
"But you should have come to the royal palace today, right?"
“It... forgive me. But I will make sure to send Lexia-san to Owen-san properly.”
I promised Lexia-san, but now I can't let Luna sleep in front of me. Did I disappoint him? As I thought about this, Lexia-san stood up excitedly.
“I've decided! I'll be here to take care of him too!”
“……….Eeh?”
For a moment, I did not understand what was being said, and when I raised a stupid voice, Lexia-san said with a glint in her eyes.
“If Yuuya-sama did not come to the royal palace to take care of this girl, then it is fine for me to stay here, right?”
“But isn't Lexia-san a princess...!?”
“More, don't you think? I can't just leave the killer who's after the princess without being easily watched. So, I will take care of her and also watch her!”
I can only be stunned by Lexia-san's statement.
“It's like we live together, isn't it?”
And Lexia-san gave a teasing final smile.
...----------------------------------------------...
At the time when Yuuya was involved in a strange incident involving Luna in another world, there was also talk of Yuuya in the entertainment industry on Earth.
“Hmm... she started keeping black dogs, yes.”.
The female director of the agency where Miu was located muttered as she sat quietly in her chair.
“...Well, this is increasingly becoming a hot topic. According to Miu, it was an adorable puppy. We can target a wide fan base.”
The director's eyes sharpen, like a predator has found its prey.
“I won't let you go, you know? Yuuya Tenjou..”.
So, on Earth as well, Yuuya was involuntarily caught in a troublesome situation without even realizing it.
