1-Prologue Previous Edition

Houtenma watched the people attending the funeral in the village's meeting hall, sitting hunched over the coffin. But no one even bothered to look at Tenma, it looked a very strange sight, but only if there was someone who could see.

The funeral was meant to send Tenma away. In other words, Tenma was invisible to the people, because he was a so-called 'ghost'.

''How long do I have to stay here?''

There was no one to answer to Tenma's murmur.........

''Houtenma-kun, I've come to scout you.

That was the first word that was spoken to Tenma, who had become a ghost.

When I looked back at the unexpected response, there was a strange light standing there ... a humanoid figure.

''It's nice to meet you, wata 'hiyun' o-wabunna!

Hands? Tenma threw a nearby teacup at Hikaru, who was pointing something that looked like it at him.　

''Watch out! You.

Hikaru, who tried to avoid it like a mamrix, was surprised, but did not seem particularly angry. However, Tenma didn't let up and went to prepare to throw the nearby tea cup, and Hikaru, as expected, was in a hurry when he saw it.

I'm not a stranger! Don't throw those things! Because if you throw that thing, you might hit someone else next time! Listen to me!

With Hikaru's desperate persuasion, the second teacup was lowered. By the way, the first teacup flew out of the open window, so probably no one will be injured.

What are you, then? Am I a ghost? Apparently, so I'm guessing you're in the same boat.

In response to Tenma's question, Hikaru is the chest? and put up a

'How rude! I am God!

Hearing this, Tenma slowly shook his arms and said, "I'm not kidding! It's true! Just listen to me for now! I stopped.

'Just hear me out for now! Once again, I am the god of another world. Tenma-kun, I've come to scout you into my world.

The words from the self-proclaimed god (laughs) startled Tenma and he froze.............but he immediately revived.

'Isn't that awful? I mean, it's coming back so fast! I thought it would be more confusing.

"It was mostly a surprise when you existed here as a ghost, so for now I understand that you're a god of another world and that you're here to reincarnate me, I'm a hundred percent sure. So why did you call out to me?

Of course it is - do you happen to be?

Tenma shook his teacup, "That's enough! I didn't.

It's true that I came to this area by chance. It's true that I came to this area by chance, but I saw a soul that seemed to be very much in tune with my world, so I called out to him.

You know my name, don't you?

Yes.

You said you wanted me to be a scout.

Yes.

You said you happened to be in the area and found me on the same wavelength.

Yes.

'You didn't just happen to know me for a while, did you?

What makes you think that?

It feels too good to be true. It's more plausible that he killed me because he happened to find me on the same wavelength as him, and then contacted me as a ghost under the guise of coincidence.

....

So, did you kill me?

'I wouldn't do that! Don't make fun of me!

"! I'm sorry!

Tenma couldn't help but apologize to Hikaru, who claimed to be a god, for his cries, which seemed to be half crying. Hikaru lowered his voice.

'I owe you an apology, too, for I've known about you for a long time, but I didn't kill you, I swear, I didn't! I'll be waiting for you until the end of your life.

I thought I was looking out for you.

When did that start so long ago?

It's been a long time since you were born.

'It's been that long! But why did you care about me from another world so long ago?

In response to Tenma's question, Hikaru said

In the world I live in, the world itself can suffer from something like a disease. When it gets this disease, the existence power, which is similar to the life force of everything that exists in that world, decreases, and in the worst case, the world itself can disappear. In order to prevent this from happening, the souls of other worlds are regularly sent to activate the 'power of existence'.

If I was sent to another world as some kind of inoculation or something, what are my advantages and disadvantages?

The only thing that's a disadvantage is that you have to start from a baby as a reincarnation. I'm not going to be able to tell you what to do, but I'm going to tell you what to do. I'm going to give you the experience and abilities you've gained in this world if you wish, and I'll also give you the ability to use magic that is only valid in this world for one time. It's within the bounds of common sense, though.

Thinking for a moment, Tenma.

So, can you make the memories about me in this world fade?

"...I can, but can I ask you why you're doing it?

'Yeah, this village was getting depopulated and its population was shrinking and it was becoming a village full of old people, but everyone was working hard to increase the population, little by little, but they were succeeding.

"Mmm-hmm.

My grandfather and his friends were at the center of it all, and they loved me a lot, but seeing them here, they're so depressed that they're going to die tomorrow and I can't bear to see them, so I want to do something about it.

The light in that Tenma's answer is the body? In a tearful voice, with a small tremor in the

'What a good boy! That's how cheap it is. But why not turn it off completely?

In response, Tenma, with a slight blush on his cheeks

"You'll miss me if I completely wipe out your memory...

I muttered in a small voice, and Hikaru saw it and cried out? While

Tenma-kun!

He hugged me and I avoided him cleanly.

'It's a terrible thing, but you need to leave this world to make that wish come true, so please touch my hand.'

The light says that and the hand? And then he offered me a cup of tea, so I grabbed it.

I have to go.

The next moment, Tenma lost consciousness with a floating feeling.
