I’m wrong, right?
Not outside of Kraunia or anything like that, right?
It’s a place so far away where you can’t even walk there, right?
Please, tell me I’m not the only one.
Please tell me I’m not the reincarnator!
Tell me I’m not the only one who transmigrated in this world!
Tell me that!
「Well, we are indeed from Kraunia but not that Kraunia. We came over from the other side of the Stick Sea around 200 years ago.」
「…..so, you mean you are from old Kraunia after the war of independence?」
「Yes, that’s right. I heard that we came from a clan in the land Kandinnava but I’ve never been there so I don’t really know the details…..」
My heart is racing.
My chest is about to be torn by the loneliness of suddenly being in touch with my hometown.
However, right now, what I need is a little information about my sister in law’s hometown.
Even if it’s just a spider thread that’s connected to Japan, I want to cling to it.
Tears, don’t come out.
My heart is about to burst, please stop.
I forcibly suppressed my feelings by pulling my thigh forcefully and tried to continue talking with my trembling mouth.
「N…..no. I’m already thankful for that information. By the way, what is the name of the clan….?」
「Ah, right, I heard that the head of the family will inherit a name from the clan so our head of the family is named Ryuzoji.」
「Ryuzoji….desu ne」
I unintentionally let out a loud voice that made sister in law gasp.
No, I had to be calm.
「Are you okay?」
「Yeah….I’m fine.」
「Yeah. That old man is basically the coordinator of our whole family there. You only need to show him the family crest.」
「….understood. Thank you. So, about the clan in Kandinnava….do you know anything else?」
My sister in law grunted a bit as she stared at the ceiling. Then, scratched the bridge of her nose and told me a little more.
「We were taught history but there’s nothing really much about the old days. I only know that the first generation founder is Seyumo Souke-sama. He was the one who built the family after getting a fief….sorry if it didn’t help.」
「No, that’s enough….」
I took my notepad and wrote Ryuzoji and Kandinnava in japanese.
By now, my suspicions have turned to certainty.
There’s someone else.
It wasn’t just me. There were definitely reincarnators or transmigrators from Japan in this world.
I felt as if a great burden had been lifted from my heart and the sense of loneliness I had been carrying for a long time had diminished.
I firmly declined my second brother’s offer to stay for the night and walked on the road where snow had begun to fall.
The orange light of the recently installed infinite magic street lams faintly illuminated my footsteps.
The wind blew and fine snowflakes brushed against my face.
I didn’t even feel like wiping it off.
Tears were pouring down my face so fast that there was no point in trying to wipe them away.
It wasn’t just me.
I’m not alone.
The little soliloquies, both happy and sad, were lost in the wind.
