Chapter: (001) World without a ceiling
Translator: Tseirp
An unknown ceiling… There wasn’t one.
In the first place, there wasn’t even a ceiling.
I thought with my dazed mind.
Where is this?
Or rather, what ti is it?
I looked at my wristwatch… this is bad! Isn’t this past the interview ti!
… Ha, this isn’t good.
There’s no helping it, I’ll go to Family Eleven to buy sukiyaki ice-cream or kelp boiled tofu pudding before going back.
Eh? Where’s the station?
Or rather…
“Where am I?”
Not only is there not a ceiling, there is neither ground, road, buildings nor sky.
Why am I here?
That’s right, the truck collided and a large number of horses ca running out… and then?
I, am I dead?
“Yup, you’ve died. This is your deathbed. The truck running away after stealing 20 horses from a stable had an accident and you were caught up in the fleeing horses.”
I see, so I’m dead. Or rather, that truck, not only did it not see the signal, it was even a horse thief?
If I’m dead, that girl Miri would grieve.
Well, I believe Miri can resolutely live on her own… if she gets taken to our uncle’s house, she would be forced to change schools though.
Haha, if that happens, even in death Miri would be angry at .
If I get to beco a wandering ghost, I’ll have to prepare to sit in seiza position.
Hmm? Didn’t sobody speak just now?
The person who told that I’ve died.
Who is it?
“You have so nerve to ignore a Goddess.”
Eh? Goddess-sama?
I turned back without thinking due to the captivating voice and I beca petrified.
I couldn’t move, like a frog stared at by a snake, like a warrior glared at by dusa.
An orc in a white dress was there.
Sheet, as I had thought, after dying it’s really an otherworld, but to suddenly encounter an Orc from the get go, this is an impossible ga.
Although I’ve not received my cheat ability yet.
“Who’s this orc you speak of. I’ve told you that I’m a Goddess.”
The Orc… or not, the Goddess said with an angry tone.
My heart was read!?
“Are you really a Goddess?”
I was half convinced half doubtful so I asked.
“Yeah, that’s right. And so, although you are dead, you are the lucky person within a billion others to obtain this great chance, to have the right to transfer to an otherworld. But you would retain your current age and figure, so it’s not a reincarnation. So what’s your choice? Will you just pass on like this, or will you live a new life in an otherworld?”
“Erm, is it impossible to return to my original world? If it remains like this, my little sister would have to transfer schools.”
“That’s impossible. I’m not saying it to be an, it really is impossible.”
Ku, impossible huh.
If that’s the case, then there’s no other road to take other than to live a new life in an otherworld.
“But, if you are transferred to an otherworld the way you are now, you would imdiately die once again. I will specially bestow to you the mysterious power called heaven’s blessing. By the way, have you played gas? Even though I say gas, I’m not referring to Tetris or Solitaire. I’m referring to gas like role-playing gas.”
”… Yes, several types.”
Role-playing gas are literally gas that you play a role.
It’s a ga where you manipulate a protagonist that’s a hero or swordsman, accumulate experience points to level up to beco stronger by inputting commands.
Titles like Dragon Quest or Final Fantasy or the Tales series are popular right?
“The place I will be transferring you to is a ga-like world like those. There are monsters and defeating monsters will let you grow with experience points and items. To begin with, you world’s role-playing gas were made after a certain God intervened with the human’s subconscious because it was too troubleso to explain about the otherworld to people transferring to the otherworld like you.”
I was told a startling fact.
In other words, Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy, no, even those before it like Dungeon and Dragons were also made because of God’s intervention. I’m surprised. Maybe, the authors for otherworld transition novels also received God’s intervention and wrote such novels.
“And so, firstly, I can increase your ability, but what ability would be good? Although I recomnd you choose sothing that can make you suddenly get a job like a hero or similar ones.”
“No, I’m not really keen on becoming a hero or anything like that. Is it impossible to abruptly get rich or sothing?”
“It’s not impossible but is it okay? For example, if 100 trillion yen is credited into your Japan passbook, what do you think would happen?”
Yeah, that would certainly be harsh.
The people would be unclear how it was transferred and I would not be able to explain how I got my hands on 100 trillion yen.
In other words, I should give up on asking for sothing like a huge diamond as well. If I deal with the situation badly, it seems like it would be treated as stolen goods.
The other recomndations that the Goddess presented to were instantaneous movent or skill snatching, or in other words, famous cheat abilities.
Instantaneous movent would be convenient for trading, but it’s not like it would make stronger.
Skill snatching is out of the question. To steal skills from other people is too much for my glass heart, and if it gets out I would bear trendous hatred.
“Are there abilities that can safely increase experience points by 100 tis?”
“100 tis is impossible. 20 tis is the limit.”
“I’ll have that then. Ah, if I have the sa 2 heaven’s blessing, would it beco 400 tis?”
“It won’t. Even though I say 20 tis, to be accurate it is 1900%. Even with the sa 2 heaven’s blessing, it would be 39 tis. Also, I only bestow 1 heaven’s blessing.”
Is that so. Well then, that will be fine.
I told the Goddess “Then, please give the 20 tis experience points ability.”
“Well then, I’ll be going as well so please enjoy your otherworld life. Since there’s no way I’m going to give you any missions in particular anyway.”
The Goddess said that and left.
So my otherworld life is going to start huh.
I will first defeat the slis around the castle and aim for level 99… just kidding.
I really feel sorry for Miri, but if I am going to live an otherworld life, I will enjoy it in earnest.
My otherworld life will finally begin.
Finally start.
Begin if you are going to begin.
It’s about ti it starts.
Start.
Ne, when would it begin?
“Goddess-sama, I sohow don’t feel any sign of transferring to the otherworld.”
… There was no reply.
Nothing happened.
Despite waiting for hours, nothing happened.
Bug? Froze?
Eh, what should I do?
“Goddess-samaaaaa!”
I involuntarily cried.
If I remain in this space with nothing around, my mind will go nuts.
“Oops, my bad… I ended up falling asleep. I am a Goddess.”
She said as she began appearing from her feet. She was a young child.
She was a kid wearing a white robe, with blonde twintails and an unpleasant look in her eyes.
”… Eh?
“Yeah, it’s not unreasonable to be surprised. I will say this first. You have died. But, you are the lucky person within a billion others to have obtained a great chance.”
And then, the child Goddess continued saying the sa words as the previous fat Goddess.
Eh, this is also a great chance limited to 1 person from a billion?
Don’t tell , I’ve been double booked by Goddesses?
I think the probability of that is 1 after 100 decimal places though.
“Finally, I think I will bestow upon you a heaven’s blessing.”
”… Ah, 20 tis experience points please.”
Even though I’ve already gotten 20 tis experience points.
After saying that,
“20 tis experience points is not a heaven’s blessing the present can bestow… but well, I’ll give you sothing similar. Well then, I’m going to continue my nap, so it’s fine if you just go enjoy your otherworld life.”
The sa mont the Goddess disappeared, my consciousness beca groggy.
Ah, there was a misunderstanding.
Well, it was the result of honestly replying, so it’s fine.
And so, well, would I get 39 tis experience points?
Hmm, maybe it would have been a better choice to choose instantaneous movent for my second blessing.
As I was having regrets, I let go of my consciousness.
At that mont, I was not aware.
The heaven’s blessing given to by the child Goddess was 1/20 experience points required to level up.
In other words, assuming 100 experience points are needed to level up normally, in my case I would level up with only 5 experience points.
Thus, I have, in essence, entered a state of having 400 tis easier growth compared to others. But I was not aware of it then.
Author’s Note:
For the ti being, I will post the titles for 4 consecutive volus.
Did you have the delusion that the Goddess would be a beauty?
