If the girl known as Tachibana Riruna were to be described in a few words she would be expressed as “an eccentric person”.
For ….. No, even amongst the classmates of my previous world, she would be taken as such.
She had this gyaru fashion and manner of speech, adding to the fact that my school was an academically driven school there wasn’t much popularity for her tastes, her personality was really bright and cheerful, yet she didn’t join any of the school club activities nor was she particularly close with anyone. (TL: Gyaru can be translated as Girl, Gal and is part of the Japanese culture of stereotype girls acting in a certain manner; there are manner types of “Gals” just as there are many types of “–dere”)
She was an elusive figure that did things at her own pace, it didn’t matter who she was dealing with, she would act the sa.
Judging purely by her appearance and her manner of speech, at first glance she did fit the stereotype of being a gyaru character, however, rather than her actually copying soone she admired to act in a certain way, it was more like she herself preferred to act in the style by her own choice…….. She always had that kind of distinctive atmosphere and uniqueness.
In other words, she was able to mingle with her peers and yet she wasn’t able to completely blend in either, she was her own kind of “unique monster”. She was like a wild animal without it’s pair.
If I may be allowed to speak my mind, that was the kind of impression she gave .
Even comparing to the literally different species of beings here such as the elves or the demonic species…… even up until now I have not t an existence like her before, it is precisely because of this that I feel like she is one of the people that is impossible to understand and is soone that I don’t really know how to deal with.
In saying this, both her body and her face were of high quality and so in that departnt, she was really popular with the boys.
Riruna was a type of “white gyaru”, unlike the other stereotype of gyaru’s Riruna had flawless white skin and she wasn’t the type to wear extrely heavy make-up that were commonly known as a trademark of the gyaru’s, she never went too far therefore, she didn’t look dirty or impure.
To us males, she was soone who could proficiently show her inner beauty without the heavy make-up, and since that was a rare type of girl within our generation, her unique charms made many of the males hearts throb.
Thanks to this, she was the target of many fantasies and jokes……… where her na would be brought up in many occasions.
If Kirika was the “public” class idol, then the “underground” idol would be Riruna.
Needless to say I was soone who was unrelated to their existences in the past (Well, in relation to Kirika I did ntion in the past).
……. Having soone like her appear in this parallel universe’s cafe and on a table where I was sitting, looking at it from an observer’s perspective I have no doubt that it must be shocking for her as it is for .
「Well it’s really you~ You’ve really surprised ! It’s really you Tooru-chi, this must be a lie, for real!? You really look the sa, don’t you think this coincidence is amazing?」
「…….Ahh, yeah. I am also surprised」
「Right, right? You’d think that right~!」
What was so fun about this I wonder? She was speaking like an Arican person who overreacted, her side tail hair was swinging from left to right as she just went on and on. I was overwheld and my face could only freeze up as I tried to provide agreeable responses.
Not only that, the more she energetically moved around her body, her firm pure white breasts would jostle back and forth, it was to the point that I thought the buttons on her blouse would explode at any mont due to her vigorous movents.
Surely this was a delicious spectacle for any n around. Similar even I……No, I won’t say it.
「……….Tachibana-san, after you’ve co to this place, what have you been up to?」
「Nn~? I’m the sa as always. I live every single day guided by my feelings and energy」
「Well, I guess that sounds like you….」
Back when we were still at school, she’s the kind of person who would be habitually late and leave school early, she was also regularly absent from school. Sotis when I thought that it was odd for her to remain in class for the whole period, I took a peek at her desk and found out that she had been brazenly sleeping the whole ti, Suzu-chan sensei who was supposed to be in charge of the class was always troubled by her behaviour. Kirika who was the class representative at the ti also found her really troubleso to deal with.
Even so, for so strange reason, her grades weren’t that bad, this is what people would call the unfairness of the world I suppose.
When Riruna was not at school, her activities were shrouded in mystery, sure enough, there were many rumours that ca out, speculating that she did “those kinds of things”.
Rumours such as her being seen with an old man wrapping his arms around her body, or rumours that if you payed her enough money she would let you do her…….. Well those kinds of nasty things.
As far as I knew, Riruna herself never denied nor affird these rumours, and I never really cared to find out either. I always thought that after graduation…… The mont that I separated from my classmates to go my own way, there would never be a second ti where our paths would cross. Because we were a different species of human being.
「Nn~~~~………」
「W, what’s wrong?」
Before I knew it, Riruna had sat on the table and rested her chin on her hands, as she gazed into my face.
Her originally big and beautiful eyes with the minimum amount of make-up really stood out, coupled with her pink glossy, wet and bewitching lips, made my heart skip a beat.
「Hey, Tooru-chi, I feel like your impression has really changed since the last ti we t」
「My impression….?」
「Yeah. Ah, it’s not in a bad way! How can I put this, it’s like you’ve beco cooler? More so than before, I feel like you’ve beco more of a man」
「What the…….」
While showing a friendly smile she said such things without any concern.
That’s right…… I am really bad at dealing with this part of her.
Closing the gap and imdiately reaching the core of a person and talking to them so familiarly without their permission.
A mory of the ti when I was still back on earth flashed before my eyes.
When I think of it, even the ti when she started calling Tooru-chi without my permission——.
〈——Riruna. How long are you going to continue this aningless conversation?〉
Suddenly I could hear a third party’s voice from behind her, and my recollection of the past was interrupted mid-way.
However, I could tell that there was nobody behind her.
「Nn, what’s wrong “Oruto”. Just when I thought you were staying really quiet, what’s up?」
「Oruto……?」
「Ah! Oh yeah, I haven’t introduced you guys! Tooru-chi……..Nnn!?」
Suddenly, as if she realized sothing important, her thin eyebrows were frowning.
What happened? Did an ergency situation suddenly occur!?
「This is Oruto……….. That over there is Tooru-chi………. Oruto, Tooru! Holy crap, don’t they sound so similar!? Isn’t this just amazing!?」(Translator note: I just realized that their na is a Palindro, which is sothing that is spelt the sa backwards as it is forwards. オルト =Oruto, トオル=Tooru. Well, I know that there is an extra “o” but yeah)
「……No, it’s not really that amazing, or more like I don’t really know what this is about?」
I was beginning to grow weak. Shit, as expected I’m bad at dealing with her. Her pace of doing things is completely ssing with my own.
〈Are you referring to a palindro? What’s the danger in that? I don’t really understand〉 (TL: Riruna used the word やばい which I translated as Holy crap! But can also an “dangerous” or “this is bad!” Or “there’s trouble!”)
Unexpectedly the person who spoke agreed with my opinions on the matter, the person had a neutral voice and it was hard to discern a gender from the voice.
Apparently the sound was coming out of the ancient looking hilt that was carried on Riruna’s back, furthermore the sword had complex patterns across it’s body.
「You both are ruining the mood. Well anyways, this mysterious talking artifact is called Oruto. I consider Oruto to be my partner. In truth there is a longer na than Oruto, but it’s too difficult to pronounce so I just use Oruto」
〈Do as you like. I have already beco used to Riruna’s fuzzy mory〉
「Look, see Tooru-chi, did you hear what was said!? Oruto always talks bad about , doesn’t it make you feel kinda horrible?」
In other words, this Oruto, thing is an artifact with a pseudo-personality……?
Although that in itself is a rare thing, it was not like that sort of thing didn’t exist in this world. After all there are even living magical creatures like Nana that exist in this world.
Creating these beings for a single purpose such as being a guard or being a maid was quite normal……. however, being able to have their own judgent, in other words their own “sentience” is sothing that only a skilled magic user is capable of creating.
Nevertheless, the being known as Oruto was communicating with with human level sentience.
〈Riruna, you’re getting carried away again. Please ask him the usual question quickly……. In the first place, haven’t you co here to look for a “particular person”?〉
「Ask a question? a particular person?」
「Ah~ Yeah, I completely forgot about that. But I know for sure that it’s not Tooru-chi. He doesn’t have any resemblance, besides his outward appearance doesn’t even match the description」
〈The person who should judge that is not you. Riruna〉
「Muu~~~~」
What are they quarrelling about? I had no idea.
For a while she was just pouting at the voice that ca from behind her, but then after a sigh……. *haa* she looked towards .
「Nn well, there is sothing that I wanted to ask you……….Tooru-chi, what is your job-class?」
My heart went *dokun* as it skipped a beat.
「So… The person nad Leifell-dono, is the deputy mayor of Paravata city?」
「Y, yes. That is correct」
Inside of the Magical flying ship cabin that was flying above Paravata city.
There was a ssenger working for the deputy mayor, she was wearing a classy military uniform suit, the person receiving her as a guest was a beautiful dark elf and even though they were the sa gender she could not help but to be chard by the dark elf’s looks.
While the dark elves were a rare species to begin with, the noble aura that this woman called Dianne wore, had taken a whole new aning and it felt other-worldly.
「This behemoth monster—— is sothing that we have classified—— as a shadow beast, Hearing about the fact that you are the group of adventurers that have repelled these vile beasts, Leifell-sama wishes to hire your services 」
Continuing to explain, since a while ago the beautiful dark elf woman has had her eyes closed, is she by any chance blind…..? The ssenger was doubtful of the fact.
However, she was the one who brewed the tea by herself. Moreover, it was delicious.
「I see. However, the decision of whether or not to receive this request is Tooru-dono’s……I cannot make this decision without our leaders permission」
「I don’t mind it. First of all, would it be possible if you could pass on the gist of the story that I spoke just now?」
After emptying her rose hip tea cup and placing it down on the table, the ssenger’s expression beca serious.
「Indeed, Paravata town is currently facing this crisis…… This is a very important request that is filled with danger」
「………My job-class? Why are you asking such a thing? Did you want to beco party mbers and explore the ruins in this city together?」
「Na, well, that’s not really the reason I’m asking. It’s just that Oruto really wants to know about it」
Riruna’s voice was slightly high-pitched. What can I say, she’s really bad at lying to people…
I on the other hand didn’t even falter or change my tone of voice as I answered her question without any hesitation.
「My job-class is Magician. Just like my grades in the previous world, the level of my job is not that high」
「….Nn, that so?」
For an instant, a relieved expression appeared on Riruna’s face.
That reaction made increasingly worried…….like a black smoke of doubt that rose up from within the bottom of my stomach, I felt a suspicious feeling.
〈——So you were called Tooruchi-san?〉
「No the part at the end is totally unnecessary」
〈In that case, Tooru-san. If I may be so rude to ask, could you please show us so sort of magic skill pertaining to your job-class?〉
「…….Haaa!?」
Standing up from her chair as it rattled, the person who suddenly spoke with an angry tone of voice was Riruna.
「What’s with that? Are you trying to imply that Tooru-chi is lying to us? Oruto, aren’t you being really rude?」
〈It’s just a small precaution. Can you please keep silent for a while Riruna〉
「But!」
Before she could complain any further, I held her back. Taking out my right hand out of my robe I placed it on top of the table.
「I’m not too sure what this is about but, you want to see my magic spells right? Then here it goes….」
I snapped my fingers and at the sa ti a fla about the size of a lighter lit up in the center of the table.
With another snap of my fingers, the wavering light blows out like the wind.
「As you can see, this is the level one elental magic spells Candle Light and Small Wind…….. Do you want to see more? As you would expect though, I can’t really show you any offensive spells in the middle of town」
〈……………………〉
Oruto stays silent for a mont. Not being able to see it’s expression at this point in ti is a troubleso thing.
〈……I understand. I apologise for the impoliteness, Tooruchi-san〉
「For real! I’m really sorry kay, Tooru-chi!」
「No, I’m telling you my na is Tooru…….. Ahhh never mind, I don’t care anymore」
Riruna was seriously apologizing as she lowered her head, I could only smile bitterly.
While wiping the cold sweat from the back of my mind.
(……..This is what you would call, preparation is key)
Naturally, the low level magic I just used a while ago is not sothing I learned. Although this is probably obvious, I can’t use any other type of magic other than Enslavent Magic.
The trick is hidden under my robe, and on my upper arm I was wearing a bracelet artifact.
After being separated from Kirika and the other girls, I hid these bracelets inside of my clothes, the other rings and bracelets (used for my energy replenishnt and contraceptive ans, these convenient enchantnts were taken off).
(Several of these level 1 spells were specifically enchanted for , moreover it didn’t need to charge or recharge itself with mana, instead it was created to absorb my mana as an energy source………. I’m not sure what kind of eyes that sheath of the sword looked at with, but I’m pretty sure anyone who saw would only be able to see that I casted the spells)
Originally I had these prepared in case I was being doubted by the authorities (After all, practicing Enslavent Magic is probably considered to be a taboo act) However, I would have never expected that it would be useful in this kind of scenario.
Also after our conversation just now I’ve made up my mind.
「I’m really sorry kay Tooru-chi, to suddenly make you do such a weird thing…. Ah! As an apology, I’ll pay for the Cafe bill here!」
I’ve decided that the person in front of , Riruna….. No, Oruto included ? The both of them are potentially people (?) that can beco my “enemies”. (TL: the question mark is Tooru wondering if Oruto should be classified as a person or not)
Although I don’t know what her reasons are, the act of her trying to confirm my job class in such a deliberate manner leads to believe that she has so sort of shady secret that she is keeping.
The possibility that she is on Cruz’s side is low……. This is because, if she was on his side, she would have known what my job-class was. (Translator note: Just a reminder, Cruz is the guy working with the demon Iblis right now, Also Cruz can be Cruise, Kurusu, I’m not too sure which na to use tbh but since I’ve already started with Cruz, I’ll just try to keep it consistent)
However, it may be possible that she also has a rare job that has the purpose of hunting down classes like my Slavemancer job class. Having one of my forr classmates awaken into a rare job is not sothing that strange considering soone like is able to obtain one.
In that case…… My next question should be this…
「That’s all good, don’t worry about it. Oh by the way…….. This is not really a payback but, I was wondering, Tachibana-san, what job do you have? 」
Well then, how will she answer? For so strange reason, I have a feeling that she does not have so sort of common job. If by chance she indeed does have a rare job, will she just easily confess her job-class? or will she try to shake off and hide it?
Putting on a calm expression, I intently observed her—— In no ti at all, Riruna imdiately replied.
「Nna, ? My job class is Hero!」
「……..Hah?」
Looking completely indifferent, it was like she was telling a break down of the side dishes within a bento box. Tachibana Riruna, had a legendary job class that was once rumoured to have defeated the Devil King.
「Haa…… Why did I blurt out those kinds of things?」
An Axe warrior by the na of Saineku was walking along the alleyway of the middle part of town as he depressingly criticised himself.
In the upper part of town, the party of beautiful girls repelled the attacking Shadow Beasts in a flash, and he was the only eyewitness to have seen the figure of the young man who seed to be their leader quite clearly.
The youth was the target of extre envy of all n and naturally having been the only guy to have seen his face clearly…… Everyone in the bar wanted to ask Saineku what this “enemy of all n” looked like.
『……I, Isn’t it obvious? He was wearing a black robe and he had this evil look on his face….. Yeah! As you would expect he looked incredibly strong, he was in fact a muscular brawny middle-aged man!』
This is what Saineku told them.
In fact, the man was much younger than he was and he looked both weak and gangly. However, because of his self-pride, he didn’t allow himself to answer in a truthful manner.
But then because he acted in such a cheap manner, right now he was tornted with a really big inferiority complex.
「Haaaa……….. As expected I should just go back to the country side…… But I wonder if Juno will co with ……?」
Concerning the result of him introducing false information to Riruna about the man who could potentially be the “Slavemancer” actually made it seem as if it was impossible for Tooru to have the outward appearance of the old man as was described—— However, it was unlikely that Saineku would ever find out the truth of this matter.
「You just said……. Hero?」
「Yeah, yeah, I am the Hero! Hehehe, are you surprised?」
Although I was hoping that I misheard what she just said, my expectations were broken into pieces.
Besides….. Riruna was acting so energetically as if she was an important person and at least to , it didn’t look like she was lying.
Or should I say, she is not the type of human being to be able to tell a lie so calmly. Even before when she was trying to get to reveal my job class, she acted in such a flustered manner and even went as far as to apologize to afterwards.
〈——Riruna〉
Within Oruto’s monotonous voice, I could sense a slight dissatisfaction. In other words, this fellow did not want to tell this piece of information……. Oi oi, doesn’t this make it even more believable?
Then are you telling this is serious? Out of all the people, this Gyaru is the one with the legendary job class? This kind of silly joke is actually for real?
「It’s finee jyan, if soone was to honestly ask, shouldn’t it be my duty to answer truthfully?」
〈That isn’t the point, it isn’t as simple as th——〉
「It is the point! Manners are seriously important, even Obaa-chan said so!」(TL: Obaa-chan can either be grandma or aunt or an unrelated older woman not sure which one it is yet)
Well at the very least, Riruna doesn’t seem to doubt in the slightest…… This girl is seriously good-natured.
The problem lies with Oruto who doesn’t seem to trust yet, well in comparison to before, the degree of caution I’m sensing from it seems to have lessened.
(…..Should I give it a go?)
In the current state, I have an opportunity to subject her to my Enslavent Magic.
If the conversation were to continue I don’t know if there may be a ti where she would start to beco suspicious of again. If Kirika and the other girls to finish their shopping and arrive right now, we may have to part and there’s no telling if there will be another chance like this.
And, if by so chance, Riruna is truly the Hero that she claims she is, this may be the perfect chance for to obtain one of the strongest war potential.
「Now now, you guys shouldn’t be fighting with each other. Hmm, well excuse but, I’ve got to go to the toilet for a bit……」
I casually stood up from my chair and I succeeded in approaching Riruna by pretending to walk past her. I imdiately activated my abilities.
Along with the rise of my Subjugation Skill, I am able to operate my abilities and generate the least amount of magical effect so that it is unnoticeable by the naked eye. If it is at this distance, there is no need for to worry about it being detected.
Obviously, it is possible that she has so sort of magical resistance skill. No, if she really is the Hero, the chance of her having magical resistance is very high……. For this reason, I’m only going to test the waters and cast this low levelled magic spell. I’ll be able to get a rough idea of what her level of magical resistance is from the response, and it will be able to tell how much ti I will need in order to completely dominate her.
(Don’t think badly of , Tachibana Riruna……… I’m going to have you beco one of my Magical Slaves)
Regardless of whether she is the Hero or not.
Following Kirika, Riruna was one of my classmates who had the title of being an “underground idol” and now I will have the chance of obtaining the both of them.
When thinking about it in this manner, it made my whole body shiver with excitent.
Her erotic body will be mine……… Moreover, I will be able to find out if all the indecent rumours around her were true as I play with her slowly on top of my bed.
(I’m looking forward to it…….!?)
Ti stopped all of a sudden.
Cutting my delusions in two, I felt a terrible amount of discomfort.
As if I just got car sick, my stomach lurched as feelings of vertigo attacked my mind, my vision of the surroundings was shaking!
「What’s wrong, Tooru-chi!? Your complexion looks really bad!」
I instinctively sat down and Riruna worriedly checks up on .
Crouching down creates a perfect distance at this height for to be able to see her white thighs from below her mini skirt, I feel like I can steal a glance even deeper into her dazzling…… No wait, this is not the ti to have such thoughts…
(This, is….. Don’t tell this is……!!)
I have experienced this unpleasant sensation once before.
It was the ti when I just arrived to this world and tried testing the uses of my Enslavent Magic in a variety of ways.
Just out of curiosity, I once tried to apply the Enslavent Magic on to “my own body”. Without really knowing what happened……. I felt this sensation of vertigo shake my brain, it was an extrely uncomfortable sensation.
Most likely it is the backlash of trying apply the magic to oneself.
Considering the timing of things and how the magic was supposed to affect Riruna, this can only an one thing——！
(S….She must have the ability to Reflect Magic!?)
This kind of skill, I haven’t even heard of it from the knowledgeable Nina. However in a sense, this much is probably natural. It only makes sense…
Especially if she truly possesses the Hero class.
Several thousands of years ago…… The legendary being known as the “Hero” was able to fight the whole devildom all alone.
Without even needing to ntion the Devil King who was able to make a whole continent vanish, there should have been an innurable amount of higher devils capable of handling the most powerful satanic magic. Without a doubt they had access to Palmyra and Flamia’s super-offensive type spells, poison type spells, or even hexing and weakening type spells.
A skill that allowed the hero to contend with the might of such spells couldn’t have amounted to a asly magical resistance skill. There was no use in arguing about it, the skill that allowed the hero to fight against the demons was most definitely the Reflect Magic skill.
「Hey hey, are you feeling alright? If you are feeling pain anywhere, do you want to pat it away? Or do you want to go to the toilet together?」
*There there*, I felt her gentle hand stroke my head. Considering she looked like a gyaru, her motherhood like actions were unsuitable for her appearance.
Moreover, my magic didn’t seem to affect her in the slightest.
That is to say, this girl who may be my biggest enemy yet……. is soone that my Enslavent Magic has no effect on!!?
