The latest chore is slight heavy labor, carrying wooden drum-like barrels.
Heesho! With this, it’s the last barrel.
Is this it for today?
The sky has already darkened.
If I concentrate on work, before I know it, the day has already seed to have ended.
However, as a lantern is placed at the entrance of the building, there’s a faint light I’m able to see by.
This lantern, other than being bright.
While I stare at the light curiously, Achilles-san approaches with a smile.
“Thank for the hard work. Thanks to you the work ended quickly.”
“Yeah, is today’s work over with this?”
Achilles-san nods and opens his mouth.
“That’s right. Let’s go eat soon. A share for Shuya has been prepared. You may even enter the bath and should take a rest afterwards. Because there’s a bath shed outside it’s boiled using firewood. As there’s also a bucket in the room you may use that if you prefer. You must carry the water from the water tank.”
“Thank you.”
“There’s no need to be so respectful. Will you eat together with us from now on? Co. I’ll introduce you to my family.”
“Okay.”
Since I am invited to dinner, I follow.
When I open the rather large wooden door on the right of the entrance, there’s a big cooking stove against the wall on the far right and lots of bottles and oil and water lined up.
The floor is firm made by compacting the dirt.
A big beam extended across the ceiling and so dried vegetables were hung from it.
There’s a sweet fragrance like a stead potato coming from the kitchen with an atmosphere of an old Japanese-style house.
Mm?, fresh from the oven, the sll is good
After a long ti, this feeling.
The air is teaming with a sll that stimulates my appetite.
The food already seems to be cooked.
I make a *goku* sound in my throat.
I’m hungry, it’s unbearable.
The sll coming from the kitchen is good, I’m led to the living room.
There’s a small square table on the other side of the living room, three people including a child with horns growing from their heads are sitting around the table.
As the al is already set out on the table, they seem to have been waiting for .
It’s rude of , but I pay attention to the food……large bones with at, a mushroom that is probably chewy, green leafy vegetables were put in a bowl with wonderful balance.
There seems to be a share for the black cat too.
The horned people are watching .
“Shuya, don’t just stand there sit down.”
“Ah, yes.”
While the eyes gather on , I was prompted by Achilles-san to shyly sit down in a seat.
“Then, I’ll introduce everyone. The one sitting down in front is Raguren. He’s the father of Refaa and husband of Rirabi.”
A large strong build, he’s the man with the massive figure. The biggest horns in the family grew from his head. The eyes and hair are both brown. Deeply chiseled features, and a high nose ridge. His skin is white.
His na is Raguren, he seems to be the father of Refaa.
The macho warrior-san, to be honest just now, I happened to see.
From the place where there’s a ladder, suddenly, when a huge figure appeared, I was a little surprised.
Back from hunting and carrying a big red axe over his back, the figure that had tied a fawn and three rabbit to his waste was impressive.
It’s an excellent figure that rather than being hunter-like, he looks just like the Schwarzenegger-like soldier figure that appears in classic fantasy movies, I stared unintentionally, and rembered the movie.
Well, so called, macho man is a guy.
The mother of Refaa that made dinner is sitting next to .
Her na is Rabbi.
The chestnut colored eyes where tinged a little darker than her chestnut hair.
Supple sloping shoulder, there’s the feeling of an adult woman’s sex appeal.
A full-cheeked oval face. She resembles her daughter Refaa a little.
And, the characteristic horns grew from her head the sa as everyone else.
“And, this child is Refaa.”
“Please take care of , onii-chan.”
Oh, onii-chan…… (TN: Be careful! Her father is a monster!)
I’m greeted in such a way.
“Thank you. I look forward to working with everyone.”
“Umu.”
“Eeh.”
“Shuya, don’t be so stiff. For now, let’s eat, Raguren and Rabbi, there will be more details after we eat, so?”
Achilles-san gives the two adults a hint about sothing more. As he sends eyes that exchanged significant looks with the family, he scoops the white soup from a wooden bowl placed in front of everyone with a wooden spoon, and brings it to his mouth and begins to eat.
When Achille-san begins to eat everybody slightly behind begin to eat the al.
I scoop up the ample white soup with my spoon too, and eat it in one gulp. The initial texture is thick, and there’s so sweetness. It’s a little rough in my mouth, but the fragrance of the edible wild plants spread faintly and promoted my appetite. (TN: I’m gunna be honest, I’m weak to light novels that talk about food, it gets boring…)
–Delicious. The taste is similar to a white stew, it’s delicious.
Being stewed well, plenty of juice overflows from the at and mushrooms.
I carry to food to my mouth quietly. While munching and chewing, it passes to my stomach.
Ue, the speed I’m eating at increases gradually.
Well, it’s natural. Anyway, hasn’t it been several months since I last ate a properly cooked al? It’s that kind of feeling.
……most of my life underground, it was the at of the black rabbit and the black grass.
I cry when I rember.
Furthermore, I was satisfied with a life like that at one point……
……Fuu, the effects of the warm al, my ward body is overjoyed.
The taste of a simple rustic ho.
It’s warm. It sinks into my body. Because it’s warm I’m happy.
It’s a morable taste.
A special seat is prepared for the black cat Rollodinu.
A platter is prepared that for so reason has designs similar to tableware used in ceremonies, a lot of dishes were piled up.
Here, the Divine Beast-sama……
When I turn my eyes to such a Rollodinu, the mother of Refaa, Rabbi-san, began to speak.
“Shuya-san, having lost your mories, did you talk with the Divine Beast-sama?”
“Eeh, yes. That’s right.”
The muscular father of Refaa, Raguren-san joined the conversation too.
“And then, you told the story to Achilles Oji-san, but……did you really kill an Apostle?”
“Yeah. I think it was the power of a vampire that was able to defeat it, but at any rate my back was suddenly pierced through……I was aware of death at that ti. I was desperate to survive.”
As soon as the hear vampire, Raguen-san and Rabbi-san’s face both stiffened in silence.
“……”
When Achilles-san sees that,
“So, it’s all right to say it.”
And, talking while sighing, Raguren-san stares at making his eyes narrow so as to attack.
Mazoku, when vampire is heard such a reaction is normally seen.
I try to talk while feigning ignorance.
“Ano, after all……are vampires targets for subjugation?”
“It’s natural. It will be so “especially” among humans……until I’m accustod too it, I recognize one as an enemy. Actually, to kill you first–”
The form that cuts in Achille-san’s conversation, Raguren-san begins to talk.
“–Shuya-kun. Excuse ? I’ll speak openly. I, as it is, am in opposition to receiving ‘you.’ For a human rather Vampire ans a Mazoku–blood will probably be necessary?”
The expression is a bit scary.
Crease in the middle of his forehead, he’s glaring at . Scary.
Raguren-san seems to not like .
So as to not be misunderstood, I’ll respond seriously.
“I don’t know about Mazoku, but eeh, blood is required. But, even blood from monster and animals is all right.”
Hearing my explanation-like words, Raguren-san’s face retains power. The wrinkle on the forehead which seems to be cut with a big knife becos fierce.
As for Rabbi-san who is next to , hearing my story, with a frightened face.
“…….Really? Still, to not know about Mazoku……”
Raguren-san turned a gaze toward Achilles-san to talk in a way that uneasy. Achilles-san one again sighed slightly.
“……I think it was said a little while ago? This fellow, has lost a part of his mory.”
“……That’s right, sorry. Achilles Oji-san knows a lot about humans, but to tell the truth our family, haven’t t a human let alone a vampire. There’s interaction with the Elves, but……”
So Rabbi-san joins the conversation too.
“Eeh, that is so. Raguren, even now there’s still exchange with the Elves, but as for without interacting the Elves, I only et another family and then the Goldiba every several years……”
Lowering her eyebrows, she talkings. I receive a lonely feeling from the expression.
“Haai?”
Refaa looks at such a mother and raises her tiny hands.
Achilles-san stroked Refaa’s head gently.
“We have lived in the heart of the mountains for a long ti. As I went down the mountain in the past there are tis when I worked with humans, so I know things to a certain extent.”
There don’t seem to be humans in this area.
As I want to know about the situation of Mazoku, I decide to hear a little about that.
“It was ntioned a little while ago but what are Mazoku?'”
Achilles-san to the question I asked, answered quickly.
“Mazoku, it is difficult to explain……it may be said that it is a race that’s existence is slightly different from other monsters. It has two aspects. One is where Mazoku integrate into human and elf society and have interactions with humans. It is the people descended from Mazoku. In the old days they seem to have called themselves “Demon People.” But, if it’s the extent I know of, they aren’t called demon people anymore. Now normally humans and elves, it’s probably beast person.”
The past.
“There were those called demon people in the past?”
“That’s right. As for the mazoku called “those of demon lineage” there seed to be many that appeared similar to humans in the old day. I think it’s multifarious even if I say that it’s similar, but shining red eyes and a face similar to humans, elves, or a beast person, differing shaping and different existences are confird to exist.”
Even just among Mazoku there are various kinds.
“The other is the Makoku which have been fought since ancient tis. As for what I know the characteristics of the Mazoku which hide in the dark is a high level of intelligence and power and a violent nature. Vampires are among this side. As vampires hide and attack humans, they are always targets for subjugation in cities.”
The Mazoku crawling in the dark, after all vampires are target for subjugation.
“Are there many mazoku who live in darkness?'”
“No. I confird in many cities the existence of evil spirits among the population taking on the appearance of living things were very few. It’s not only related to the dark god Rivguraf, there are Mazoku which work as attendants for dangerous god and move between this world and the world of hell. This can be said of not only Mazoku but also of humans. As fanatics exist attention is required.”
As for the world of hell, I hear Rollo knew of it at the ti of the contract, but……is the world of hell its na?
World of hell, Mazoku, Demon Gods, I’ll rember those.
“North of the Maheimu Mountains across the distant land is 【Large Gordekus Desert】, from here, to the north east is vast forested land ho to the country of 【Great Empire of Befarit】 and it seems that is considered the ‘territory of Mazoku. From the Mazoku’s position they led monster afterward to make a labyrinth. Such Mazoku are considered the be classified the sa as a monster.”
The domain of Mazoku is in a far off area. Moreover, the labyrinth.
“Classification?”
“That’s right. The strength of monsters is categorized as S, A, B, C, D, and additionally the degree of difficult is divided into three A , A , A .”
It’s detailed.
I look down slowly, and input the new information into my head.
“……I’ll rember.”
Achilles-san look at in such a state, and talks encouragingly while smiling kindly.
“Ah, but……even if I say Mazoku, the best aren’t discovered. Like Shuya? With us, Shuya looks exactly the sa as a human, but from a human ‘demi-person,’ I am called a ‘beast person.'”
My race, strictly, it isn’t Mazoku, but, well it’s fine.
“Then, what is your race?”
“Our race is Goldiba. The horn–it’s our characteristic feature.”
After Achilles-san leans his head to one side, he knocks on the curled horns on his head with his finger tip.
“It’s not the sa way with humans. Our people are similar to the elves with a reputation of a long life span. I’m the oldest Goldiba surpassing 500 years, it’s officially 580 years, I have lived.”
To have lived over 500 years.
The Goldiba Clan.
I can imagine to story of elves having a long life, but……
It’s certainly fantasy. A race with a long life.
“Amazing……”
Certainly, from Achilles-san, I get the impression of an old fox.
“But, it’s a family which isn’t blessed with fertility. So, Refaa is a precious descendant.”
Kind eyes are turned to Refaa.
When that’s heard Refaa who’s been sitting in silence brightens hey eyes.
“, I’m precious? ? Yatta!”
Refaa gets down from the seat where she sat, and turned to face everyone with crossed arms and a triumphant face.
It’s a cute face.
“……Refaa is precious?”
Gently stroking Refaa’s head, the smile is returned.
“Really!”
Returning my gaze back to Achilles-san, again, I asked a question.
“Then, the Goldiba clan, have few man-made things?”
“Few things do not change, but……to say, here isn’t all of the Goldiba?”
Eh?
“Four to the east, there are five families on the west edge. They should live in the plateau and jungle area among the mountains the sa way. In addition, in far off ancient tis, in the old era……there is the fairy tale story called the empire of the dawn. Sowhere surely……there should a race sharing the sa Goldiba race as us.”
Mm, there’s possibly others of the Goldiba race elsewhere.
An ancient empire of the distant dawn?
There’s such a story like legend too.
“Achilles-san, is it normal for the Gorudiba clan to live in the mountains?”
“The basis is like that. I don’t usually interact with other races very much, but instead, there is a festival once every four years.”
Oh, a festival.
Furthermore, once every four years.
It’s like the Olympics, but I don’t point that out.
“The Festival is a custom that has continued since ancient tis. Other Goldiba clans gather here. At the festival, as the Priest I report to everyone the state of the shrine, and youths compete in physical training in the 【Training Course】 to pray for the perpetuation of their descendants.”
“Festival……”
After that, I learned general simple things such as the history and the customs of the Goldiba from Achilles-san.
I’ll formally begin helping Achilles-san with work from tomorrow.
I’m being taken care of, so I must do my best.
When I turned my feet to return back to the hut, I was called by Rabbi-san.
“Shuya-san. I washed the clothes you wore before. Though they’re old please use this.”
“Ah, sorry, thanks.”
Rabbi-san seems to have washed the clothes which I wore.
And then, I received several pieces of leather to use for leather clothes and life.
The hide clothes are the hand--downs from Achilles-san and Raguren-san, the underwear is too……
For a mont, I shrink back, but there’s no helping it.
As there’s only a t-shirt and jeans for clothes, it’s an urgent problem.
The underpants are worn out and the washed trunks are a ragged, I’m considerably ashad. However, there’s no choice.
Similarly, foot wear was never available.
I have no choice but to use it little by little.
I can’t say it’s luxury.
With the returned clothes I received, I return back to the hut with the leather clothes and fabric.
In order to put away the things, I was holding on the lined up shelves I went to the shelves.
There’s various shelves, but a small wood chip gets into my eye.
Is the stick of the tree? This, must be what it is.
Dozens of them have a point cut length wise, the tip is abnormally soft.
Is it writing brush for calligraphy? It seems to be made roughly.
Ah, a brush. It’s a twig tooth brush.
Next, my gaze goes to the water bucket next to the water tank.
The washing board is placed to the side.
The pail for washing and the bath.
Accept, getting in is better.
There seems to be a separate bath shed for warm water, as a test, I’ll go in.
I who thought so go out of the room, and sit at the water tank.
I line up the small pail and wooden barrel under the water tank. I scooper the water in a small barrel and poured the water into the pail returning from room to room.
Making round trips, the pail becos full.
It’s a simple cold bath, but I try entering.
Throw off my clothes, I soaked a foot in the water.
–Hiiii, cold, I subrge.
I look at the surface while leaning on the edge.
The wooden window opened, and I saw the night sky.
A dry wind blows from the window, my hair sways.
While soaking in the cold bath, I looked outside the wooden window.
Cold……later, I’ll reenter the warm bath shed.
I wonder what kind of bath shed it will be, they said I should use the firewood, like an orthodox Geomon bathtub. Or you might use stones to heat it. (TN: Geomon Bathrub)
But, such trivial guesses, disappeared when I looked at the night sky.
The stars are visible.
The moonlight is bright, too……
I was worried about the outside world.
It’s such a superb view, I hoped the view would be beautiful.
I want to see it.
I get up from the cold bath, hurriedly change into the hide clothes and exit the hut.
After all the night sky outside, in a few words, is the best part.
The number of stars spread out countlessly.
I see a constellation similar to Orion.
–Beautiful.
It’s different from the night sky on earth with the milky way.
The stars spread out like countless grains of sand, and ford a beautiful sea of stars. It may be said I’m far away from the night sky of earth.
Besides, there were two moons on this planet.
The big moon and the small moon, two.
Moreover, part of the big moon has broken and is missing.
The smaller moon is normal sized.
Two such large and small moons, continue lighting up the night sky and the beautiful night view iscompleted.
It’s no wonder, it’s so bright……there’s two moonlights.
“After all……”
Another world……
Just looking around the beautiful night sky, 180 degrees, I continue moving my head and observing the stars.
There, this also, I found the celestial body that was evidence of a different world.
I saw sothing like a white cot.
It’s accompanied by a white tail.
Mm, by no ans, could it be a man-made satellite or spaceship……
“Two moons and white cot.”
“–What is it? Can you not sleep?”
I spoke to Achilles-san who was still awake.
He must have heard what I said concerning the stars.
“Eeh, it seems so, can I have a minute?”
“Mm? What is it?”
For example, ……
“Amongst brilliant stars, is there a star representing north?”
Achilles-san beams joyously at my questions and opens his mouth.
“There is, the north connected pole star, it’s called to northern brother’s star. There’s also the na of god. “Older Brother Star Setsudat” and “Younger Brother Star Senrokoku” is with the northern god snowstorm to shine? Over there.”
Achilles-san pointed a finger to point in the sky between the mountains.
–I look there.
Certainly……the two shine brightly.
“I see them. This north connected pole star.”
Angular from the horizon, a little up, is it in that area?
If I compare it with earth, here is the northern hemisphere, above the equator.
If it really ans what polestar does on earth, the correct latitude can be calculate from the angle of the star.
Seeing it, the position here is around 20 degrees?
In Tokyo, Japan it was about 35 degrees. Naha should have been around 26 degrees.
Hmm, here is another world, the position of precession and the pole star will be different from on earth, and there’ll be no help if I think about a thing with the standards of earth……
I’ll assu in the end that we’re in the northern hemisphere. (TN: Oi oi, don’t go gestimating the angle of the stars.)
“……Travelers everywhere would see it too……”
Achilles-san mutters sothing looking at the binary starts that could be missed.
Apart from the binary star I open my mouth while matching my eyes with the moon.
“What are the nas of the two moons?”
“Ah. The Big Splintered Moon, Soutsuki God Uraniri It’s Osuki Kami The small moon is Soutsuki Kami Uriou. Ozuki Kami. They’re called.”
“Mm……”
Cold icy wind hits my cheeks.
“It’s cold. Did it beco colder? It’s spring now, but is it the high altitude? I’ll go to my own bed.”
Spring. Ah, I an I’ll hear about the bath.
“Ah, let see, where’s the bath shed?”
“I’ll show you. Co.”
“Ah, okay.”
The place I’m guided to is a private use bath shed made with a wooden fra connecting to the hut next to it.
When I open the door of the hut and enter, I was t with wet steam.
Tepid air escapes outside.
I, while inhaling the warm steam look into the room.
There was a large kettle there.
It’s an iron cauldron enclosed by a wooden fra with black iron fittings attached. There’s three cauldrons in all, there’s a pot that hot water was put into and the pot which large and small stones were put into in large quantities.
“Already, you may enter because it’s heated. If fire is applied to this iron pot and stone are added this way it becos a Tandart type sauna.”
It’s a sauna.
“Ah, there’s a sauna too?”
“With that reaction, you must know what a sauna is. By any chance, maybe you’re from Tandart?”
Of course I can’t know.
Even if there’s a bath lover in the area is tandart a thing?
“……I, don’t know. However, I know of steam baths.”
“Umu? There’s only the knowledge? Well it’s fine. As for how to use it, you only pour water on the stones that was just heated from the pot? Be cautious not to burn, but the room becos warm when heated by the moisture.”
“Okay.”
“Now, you may use it freely because everyone has already entered.”
“Okay, thank you.”
“Relax, see you tomorrow.”
After Achilles-san says so, he left the bath shed.
Right away I soak in the bath.
It’s extrely different from the water a short while ago.
Warm. It’s a bath after a long ti. It feels good.
With a *fuuuu* I exhale.
While relaxing I let my eyes swim, and the cauldron with stones cos into view.
This is a good ti for a sauna. I’ll enter soti.
Well, Achilles-san said that I was anxious before.
The season is spring.
Spring……that ans there are four seasons.
If that’s the case, I can assu the rotation of the planet is similar to earth, with earth’s tilted axis.
The precession will be similar too.
Well, even if the form and size of the planet are inferred there’s no helping it……
An astronor of ancient Greece found the volu of the earth using calculus, surveying with trigonotry, and calculating the size of the earth using the angle of the stars…… If there was Wikipedia I could understand it in detail, but there won’t be such a convenient thing as the internet. (TN:We have it though.)
But, I may be able to make use of casual modern knowledge in this other world……
I loved the drama where a present day doctor ti traveled to the Edo period. I rember that I investigated how to make penicillin under the influence of the drama.
It seems there will be trouble cultivating the bluish green mold here.
Or how should I say it, if there’s magic there’s no need for penicillin……
I’ll seal modern knowledge for a while. And, even if I say that, the knowledge is only superficial. As a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, let’s give it up.
Now that I understand this world, I’m living in it.
So I’ll forget about the knowledge from my previous life.
While engaged in such delusions I leave the bath.
I thoroughly enjoy the cool night sky outside.
After doing this for a while I returned to the hut.
I plop myself down on the bed. A feather touches my back, it’s itchy.
While my hand behind to scratch my back, I’ll look a little. And,
“Status.”
