Chapter 26 – Story of a Normal High School Student.
Kurono Mao was a 17 year old high school student.
He never dyed his hair, neither smoked nor quarreled, there was also no one in his surroundings who would do such things, he was living a truly peaceful high school life.
His family background was also normal, he had two parents and one older sister.
The only worries he had were the exams next year and the deadline for the literature club’s anthology.
A regular and peaceful daily life, I had all of these things. [ET: Author changed from third person perspective to first person perspective]
“But, without understanding a thing, I was in a place I didn’t know.”
The first ti I opened my eyes in this world was in a laboratory where a ring was being installed into .
Shit, even just by rembering it worsens my mood. For the rest of my life I doubt that I will ever face a morning wake up worse than that.
“The freedom of my body was stolen, and I beca an experintal subject in the facility with only white rooms. As a result, I am now able to use black magic, my body has beco a lot sturdier, I am able to understand the language of this world and am able to write and read the characters of this world as well.”
Though I did not ask for it, I was forcibly given this power.
The power I have right now cannot be gained without training in this world.
I got this power in less than one year, the compensation for it was the imnse pain inflicted on my mind and body.
“After I gained power to so extent, I was forced to fight in what was called ‘mobility experints’.”
It started off with an empty-handed light golem, and gradually the opponents kept becoming stronger.
Along with that, I also certainly got stronger.
“And once my opponent was......a human from the sa world as , but I only discovered that after I had killed him.”
From then on, I completely relinquished my own will to them.
Nevertheless, the experint was not going to stop, just, I started to feel I needed to escape from there.
Even though my sense of awareness was fading away, the experience I gained with my body beca my own.
“Even after that, I was forced to fight in the sa experint. I can’t count how many people I had killed, but I was the one killed them. And each ti I killed a person I gradually beca stronger――let’s see, I gained the power which can defeat a fire breathing dragon.”
In those days, I had no ti to regain my sense of awareness.
It was at that mont, when my sense of awareness and ego were about to disappear.
“I didn’t understand the circumstances in which it occurred, by the ti I regained my sense of awareness, my ring was lying on the floor of the experint room. Now that I think about it, the reason my sense of awareness was fading might be an effect of the ring. Anyway, the main source of restraining the ‘ring’ was now removed. I killed all the masked n and escaped from the laboratory facility without hesitation.”
In the end, thanks to the power given to by them, I was able to escape from the facility. After that, without eating or drinking anything I was able to reach here.
If it wasn’t for Sariel, escaping from the laboratory wouldn’t have been as dangerous.
“After escaping the facility, I thought of running to a place where they won’t co looking for , and so I boarded a ship bound to the Pandora Continent. Then, when I woke up, Lily was there.”
I narrated the circumstances I had to Lily, who was sitting on top of my leg.
I don’t know the important things, such as how I ca to this world and true identity of the masked n.
“Kurono......”
“It’s alright now Lily, it was certainly painful, but it’s all past now.”
Even if Lily didn’t know everything in detail, she still understood the feelings I lived with inside the laboratory.
After such a long ti, I don’t want words of consolation, I just wanted Lily to know about .
Although, Lily being by my side was a sufficient amount of consolation for .
“Hey Lily, do you know magic to summon a person from another world?”
“Another world? I don’t know, but there is summoning magic ‘summon’.”
“The one to call monsters?”
“Yeah.”
“Are most of the summoning magics like that?”
“Yeah, most can call out monsters or familiars. Other than that I don’t know.”
“I see......”
I have seen monster or familiar summoning magic sotis during the ‘mobility experints’.
I wonder if I was also summoned from a big illuminated magic square like them.
However, the summoning magic Lily and I know are for calling soone from a different place in this world, not for calling soone from another world.
“Kurono, do you want to go ho? When will you go back?”
“Aah, I want to go ho. I left everything I have attained in my life entirely, when I ca here――”
I wonder, what is happening right now in my previous world.
Am I being treated as a ‘missing person’ over there? Either way, there is no doubt that I’ve caused my family trouble.
At the very least, it will be much better if I could send a single letter.
“However, I don’t know much about magic, and the outrageous magic for traversing between worlds will not be discovered easily. That’s why, I will live here for a while, or else for my whole life in this world. Well, if it cos to that, I request you keep on having a everlasting friendship with .”
“Un! Lily will always live with Kurono!”
“Thanks, Lily.”
I thought if I can live with Lily, then maybe living in this another world will also be interesting.
