Volume 2 chapter 5 (Part 2)- Green Nightmare
When the teleportation was complete, Kaito had crossed a large mountain range and then some from the location he previously fought with Yumisu.
It’s drizzling, A drenched body will lose temperature more quickly.
Kaito’s body had already exceeded the limit. Kaito entered a cave which was nearby by chance, and confirmed that there were no signs of monsters and then he laid down and started to clear his mind of the hallucination from the teleportation.
“Puha~, deep…..”
Recovering from the hallucination kaito looked down at his terrible state.
There were multiple deep wounds all over his body, vast amount of blood continued to ooze through his equipment. There were places on his body where the skin was lacerated, some flesh wounds were opened up again and and in some parts flesh was torn out while blood continued to splurt out.
“It’s a good thing i didn’t call that person an Idiot. Otherwise i would be called a much bigger idiot right now~.”
Involuntarily, he started to laugh self-deprecatingly.
Kaito thought that it was impossible to utilize Magic beyond the existing MP, but that is not true. Even if the MP is unavailable, one can still activate Magic as long as one can endure the acute pain that attacks the body.
Of course, there is a catch.
If the Magic is activated when MP is depleted, the HP will be consumed in response while corresponding amount of pain is inflicted.
Despite possessing a vast amount of magic naturally from a young age, along with the technology/technique that suppresses her power,, without MP to support it, failure’s often happen when you overdo it, if Letishia had not told me this while laughing while we was talking about the olden days, then it would have been difficult to escape like this,
“h, i did not expect that i would make a debt after she died. ”
Taking out an HP potion and an MP Potion from the round sack, I sprinkled the HP potion all over my body and gulped down the entire MP potion in one gulp.
With the little bit of MP recovered I took out the fuel rock from the round sack and set it ablaze with the spirit sword and placed it on the ground. Smoke started to reveal itself, while lighting the fuel rocks which burned much longer than regular firewood, My tired thoughts started to leak out,
“I told you that i was a scatterbrain , how many do i have to apologize before you forgive me ”
The pouting and angry face of Letishia came to mind, and spontaneously a small smile floated.
“Ahh,i want to see you…….. It is really lonely without you Letishia”
A dream that i seriously wished for it to be true even if it’s only for a while.
Taking Letishia, returning to my original world and living a peaceful life.
My family would definitely be surprised. I don’t know what exactly has been happening over at the other side, but if i were to take Letishia with me, Mother and Father would definitely be surprised.
I wonder what kind of face will my imouto make when she learns that i was able to get a Girlfriend. My siblings and i shared a favorable relationship, but i disappeared suddenly, and when i return along with her, they would probably lost for words for a quite a while.
Seeing the insanely beautiful letisha, there is no doubt that both Suehiko and Kenta would be vexed while crying tears of blood. Even that Stupid Couple Yuma and his girlfriend who are always lovey-dovey would lose an eyeball, the two of them will probably give a word of congratulations.
There might be quite a lot of problems, even so if letisha is by my side, along with her smile on her face that I loved so much.
I thought many times that if it is just a dream..
I thought many times that if this dream is reality.
Just like what yumisu said, a dream that was short-lived and would never come true.
While I entrust myself to that fleeting dream, the surroundings got covered by gloomy rain clouds and gradually darken.
And then, when my sight was dyed with darkness, that's when i realized that i was dreaming about the memories of the old days, and i realized the fact that i would wake-up soon.

Academic City Erumia.
True to its name, it is a City which specializes in Academics that the Ororurea Kingdom highly regards.
Each Kingdom has a city which specializes in Special Research and doubles as an Education Inst.i.tution, and among them the Erumia Research Inst.i.tute are famous for their developments of Magic tools, and the Marquis which governs Erumia along with the surrounding areas who are famous for being formidable Magic Masters paired with their talent.
Originally it was a city where the trade between kingdoms intersected, from unusual rare and valuable goods, new kinds of knowledge was gathered. .
In Addition, it was a given that due to condition of the surrounding environment there was quite a wide variety of Monsters with materials that acted as essential catalysts for the production of Magic tools, which further bolstered the popularity on the creation of Magic tools.
Due to the fact that the city was developed on the trade of Magic tools which was quite a unique industry, the demand for adventurers who gathered the materials for the Magic tool production also increased, and seeking the methods on the production of these Magic tools and their knowledge more people started to gather in this city.
And now it has become one of the most distinguished cities in the kingdom.
Later on a position as a Researcher and an Education Inst.i.tution which mainly focused on Magic tools was formally recognized by the King of that time, and the n.o.bles who ruled the territory at that time, according to the Ancient Ororurea dialect were named Erumia [Seekers of Knowledge], and the city was allowed to be named after them.
Nowadays, it is a city which is at the forefront of the industry in both as a relay point for Trade and as an Inst.i.tution which specializes Magical tool research, and for this reason Merchants, scholars and Adventurers gather there, it is the city which has the largest variety of people on a large scale in the entire kingdom.
And that, it was at this city which we were finally able to reach.
“Goshujin-sam, it’s morning already, Please wake up”
“.........please, give me, 5-more minutes”
It was the worst dream. This probably happened because of seeing her face again yesterday, there is no other explanation for it.
Inside my dull slumber, while my consciousness was half awake, i heard someone’s voice and the feeling of someone shaking my shoulders.
And so, knowing that the voice belonged to Minarisu, i replied with such words in my half conscious state.
With a firm resolve of not letting that dream remain as only a dream. But it was still a dream that i did not wish to acknowledge while laying on a proper bed after such a long time.
From the start of of my second time, this was the first time i acknowledged the importance of a proper bedding.
An excellent heat insulated monster feathers stuffed into a pillow cover made from cotton obtained from a fantasy world plants, and a silk sheet obtained from woven threads obtained from silkworms, and fairly bouncy mattress obtained from fantasy world plant called Spring trees.
I wondered just how long i could sleep in such a happy and comfortable environment.
For almost over a year, i hardly stayed at inns because I was cautious of raids. All i had was a thin blanket that was easy to obtain and a Dirty hard tree as a pillow and the cold hard ground as a bed.
It’s not possible to sleep without putting up the barrier, and it’s not possible to get a deep sleep everyday because I was cautious of the surroundings.
Of course i hadn’t dropped my guard while i was asleep, but even so with just this much, i was still able to get a pleasant time of sleep due to the varying degree of softness along with the low degree of risk
It was just 1 - large silver coin for a double bed room for 10 days. Exactly because it’s a pleasant sleeping environment after a long time, i did not wish to think about that nauseating dream and think about it early on the day.
“That’s why, Please, just for a little while more…..”
Muttering so i sunk deeper into the bed while placing the Feathery pillow on my head.
“Hora, quickly get up, didn’t you wish to go to the Adventurer guild today?,”
Saying so minarisu striped the sheets from over me just like a demon.
“Ughhhh………., Return it……...”
“Not happening, this is already…….mine,Anyway please get up already”
Minarisu first stripped me of the Sheets from the bed and then took pillow.
“AAAAAAaaaaa,Gaa~, it hurts……...”
And then my beloved pillow and sheets were stolen from me.
Even so while kaito was lying face-down on the bed,
The Bunny eared female Beastwoman used her extraordinary physical ability and grabbed the edge of the Bed and without regret pulled it from under him, causing kaito to roll down from the side of the bed.
Kaito could not continue playing in his drowsy state, and reluctantly raised his body from the ground.
“Don’t you think that was a bit too rough, Minarisu-san?”
“Even though I allowed you to wake up properly the first time, it was Goshujin-sama’s fault for not getting up properly the first time. ”
………..Was there a first time? Ahh~,come to think of it, i do feel like i remember saying 5-more minutes.
“Moreover it was Goshujinsama who told me, that i should do so if you refused to wake up”
“Did i really say that? No, i probably did.”
I remember saying that you should do so very clearly in my head.
Even though i also overslept when I was at the imperial capital, because I didn't woke up with the same appearance this time, I asked for it last night so I don't experience the same habit as that time.
There is also that, the room we use is not 2 single rooms, but we rented a double room instead.
………...By no means, it’s because Minarisu said it’s wasteful of money.
“Did you wish to lock me out to such an extent?”
“Ahh, Goshujinsama is a man, there are times when you wishes to be alone too right.”
“It’s fine, am I not a very understanding woman? ”
Those eye’s had suddenly turned very cold and continued to stare holes into me without mercy, and criticized me without any doubt in them, and in the end i gave up.
It was absolutely not a bull’s eye, No really it wasn’t.
…………...I was upset and reluctantly choose a Double room, but thinking about it now i should have held my ground.
“I have prepared breakfast by borrowing the kitchen after i had tried to wake you up during the first time, so let’s go down.”
“Ok, let’s have breakfast for now”
I held the bed while heaving a huge yawn when suddenly a scary feeling came creeping from my back and i immediately gave up on my idea, and then crushed the last remaining traces of sleepiness along with the bad dream that i had dreamt.
