Part 2

Meanwhile, on Earth at that time.

A few days had passed since the fierce battle in space.

I Yuuya Tenjou, after a busy trip, was finally able to enjoy a holiday.

In fact, there are still some evil beasts left to be defeated in the other world, but Iris-san and the others ordered me to take a rest before parting ways. I thought it would be better to help defeat the evil beasts, but Odis-san also expressed his desire to make up for his inability to participate in the fight against Avis.

Still unlike previous summer vacations, there was really so much going on this time that it didnt really feel like a vacation

The only memories that I have of the summer vacation were of going to the beach with Kaori and the others and going to the summer festival with Miu-san. No, I also took Lexia-san and the others sightseeing around the Earth, does that count as having fun too?

I didnt really feel like I was on vacation, but I was really happy to be able to play with my friends, unlike before.

So, as if to relieve the fatigue of the past, I was lounging around the house with Night and the others.

The summer vacation will be over in a little while.

Woof?

Night cocked his head curiously at my soliloquy.

It was less than a week before the end of summer vacation, but I had finished my homework as soon as the vacation started, so there was no need to rush to do anything.

However, I should be preparing so that I dont panic on the first day of school

Ah! Right!

Fugo!

Pi?

I remember something and suddenly raise my voice, and Akatsuki, who was lying down next to me, jumps up in surprise and gives me a reproachful look.

I-Im sorry.

Youre making too much noise. What in the world is wrong with you?

As I apologized to Akatsuki and the others, Ouma-san, who was also sleeping, asked me so with a sigh of absence.

Well, summer vacation is almost over, and I thought I should go call on Kagurazaka-san, who is still in the other world

Yes, I need to call out to Kagurazaka-san, who still remained in the other world.

I mean, I neglected to do that until now because of my sense of things, but I-is it okay? Each school might have a different date for the end of summer vacation or something like that

W-what should I do? N-no, I have to tell her anyway before worrying about it!

Hmph, so youre off to the other world today?

Woof!

Fugo.

Pi!

Night and the others get up as soon as I speak and get ready to head off to the other world.

I should have said a few words to Yuti, but she was not there, as she was visiting a school friends house. I am relieved to see that she seems to be adjusting well to her school.

For now, lets go to the Regal Kingdom where Kagurazaka-san is!

I went through the [Door To Another World] and traveled to the Regal Kingdom by teleportation magic.

Now that were here, what are we supposed to do?

We arrived safely in the Regal Kingdom, but when it came to meeting with Kagurazaka-san, I was troubled by the means.

Since she was treated as an important guest in the Regal Kingdom, I knew that she would be at the royal castle, but I did not know whether I could go directly to the castle or not.

Last time I was with Lexia-san and the others, so there was no problem, but this time I was on my own.

Since there was no one to vouch for my status, I wondered if I would be able to enter the royal castle easily

I hope one of the soldiers remembers me, but as expected

As I was thinking about this, Ouma-san looked at me in dismay.

What, you didnt think anything of it?

Ugh

Oh well. You dont have to worry about it that much. If anyone tries to interfere, well just force our way in.

We cant do that!

That may be true if thats how Ouma-san perceives it, but as I said, I cant do such a thing.

As I wandered around near the castle, thinking seriously about what I should do, I was unexpectedly approached by a voice.

You, what are you doing?

Eh? Kagurazaka-san!

The voice was, to my surprise, Kagurazaka-san, whom I had been looking for.

I was surprised because I didnt expect to see her so suddenly, and then, Kagurazaka-san continued with an air of disappointment.

If you keep wandering around like that, people will think youre suspicious, you know?

I followed Kagurazaka-san into the royal castle for the time being, and as Kagurazaka-san had said, the treatment was very good, and we were soon able to meet with Orghis-sama.

After waiting for a while in what looked like a reception room, Orghis-sama arrived.

I apologize for keeping you waiting. And Yuuya-dono, its been a while. And all your friends too

Hmph.

Y-yes! Im sorry, I didnt mean to bother you out of the blue

What? Dont worry about it. Yuuya-dono is a benefactor of our country, after all.

Orghis-sama smiles cheerfully as he says so.

It is true that I responded to the attack by Quarro and Avis, but when you even call me a benefactor, I feel indescribable

Speaking of which, Lexia-san and the others

Oh, they have already returned to the Alceria Kingdom. Thanks to the Holy including Mai-dono and Iris-dono, the damage caused by the evil beasts has been decreasing recently. After exchanging various information, they returned to their country.

I see

While I was resting after returning from space, Iris-san and the others were working hard in the other world Although Iris-san and Master Usagi told me that I could rest, I feel bad that I have done nothing so far.

After some light chit-chat, Orghis-sama asked.

So, what brings you here?

I am sorry, Your Majesty. May I ask for a moment of your time?

Mm?

Kagurazaka-sans words startled Orghis-sama.

From the very beginning, Mai-dono has been helping us because of our selfishness. That is why we have no right to say anything to Mai-dono. And thanks to Yuuya-dono, the Evil king has been defeated, so there is nothing we want Mai-dono to do right now. Just what are you going to do with your time off?

Well, I was wondering if I could go back to my world for a while

What? Oh, yes I heard that Yuuya-dono can go back and forth between worlds

Y-yes. I can come and go. So, Kagurazaka-san and I can continue our lives in our original world

It seems that Orghis-sama already knows that I can freely come and go between this world and Earth, besides the fact that I am from another world. I wonder if Lexia-san or Kagurazaka-san taught him that?

I understand the situation. As I said before, I summoned Mai-dono for our own reasons. As long as she can return to her world, there is no problem. The matter of the evil beast has settled down.

Im sorry

No need to apologize. We are the ones who are sorry for bringing two unrelated people into this mess. Since you are with Yuuya-dono, Im sure it will be alright, but please be careful on your journey.

Thank you!

After getting approval for Kagurazaka-san to return to Earth for the time being, I was taking a breather when Orghis-sama showed a sign of remembering something.

Right! I had one thing to tell Yuuya-dono.

Eh?

Have you ever heard of the Evil cult, Yuuya-dono?

Evil cult is it? I had never heard of it before.

As I tilted my head at the unfamiliar word, Orghis-sama continued.

To put it simply, it is a religion that believes in Evil, but some suspicious activities are happening among its followers. There is nothing serious going on, but I would like you to keep this in mind.

I-I understand.

I didnt know there were people who believed in Evil

I dont know what they are thinking, but I hope it doesnt turn out to be too disturbing.

After we finished talking while thinking about this, Kagurazaka-san and I greeted Orghis-sama once again and left the royal capital of Regal Kingdom.

After walking for a while out of the city, Kagurazaka-san opened her mouth.

So, how long does it take to get to your house from here?

Oh, it wont take long since we will be returning home by magic.

By magic?

While Kagurazaka-san, who was unaware of the existence of teleportation magic, was surprised, I confirmed that there were no signs of people around us at first, then I activated the teleportation magic and returned to Sage-sans house.

We then passed through the door and returned to the Earth.

Yes, we are back.

I-it really only took a moment

Well, I would appreciate it if you could keep the teleportation magic a secret.

Eh? Why?

It seems that teleportation magic is considered legendary not only on Earth but also the other world, and there are a lot of problems if I can use it

No, your very existence is already outrageous, so why do you care about the legends now?

W-well, that may be so, but it is better to be cautious.

Well, thats all right. If thats the case, Ill keep my mouth shut. Id better hurry home and get ready for school

Oh, excuse me! Shall I teleport you directly to the front of the shrine?

You dont have to go that far. I want to do some shopping on the way home Anyway, thank you so much for always looking out for me.

After saying this, Kagurazaka-san went straight back toward the shrine that was her home.
