Chapter 38 – It seems like a night at a desertedhouse
“Muri! murimurimurimuri! because muri!! Let’s go back Renya …” (Shion) [1}
Shion clings to the right shoulder of Renya with both hands and demand with appealing eyes desperately.
Those hands trembling like a lost child, the eyes looking up became totally watery and moist.
If it was another man there would be no doubt that they would happy by the scene of Shion clinging to their shoulder, but Renya is being conscious of peeling Shion’s hand from his shoulder that is being squashed with tremendous grip strength and he does not pay much attention to other things.
“Why do you want stay overnight in this property where there are ghost lurking around … let’s leave please…” (Shion)
“No, I told you that I want confirm it, it’s only a ghost, so it only come out at night. There is no other way to confirm it other than staying overnight right? If you want to go back, can you go back to the hotel alone? “(Renya)
“After hearing at that story, how can I return home all by myself? I hate you Renya!” (Shion)
Renya begins to think that it was a mistake that he brought Shion along.
However, it was certainly my own fault that I did not explained it properly, so I cannot even reply.
Still, it was surprising that Shion can’t handle ghost stories.
First, I do not know if there is a ghost or not, second I saw a person melting in a dungeon, which I think that its many time scarier visually speaking. Let’s just ask the neighbor about it.
“Ghosts can’t be cut with a sword!” (Shion)
An answer came.
Listening to that reply, Renya decided to add a new word called physical idiot to the evaluation called Shion.
Renya starts exploring the building while desperately dragging the sleeve of Shion who is still insisting on returning loudly.
The first floor faces the road opposite the entrance, which is the store space.
One of the two warehouses can only be entered from the store side, the other is adjacent to the workshop, and it is built for the studio.
In the drawing room, the furniture when people lived was left intact, but many corrosion and wormwood were found, and piles of dust accumulated and making a thick layer.
Rather than cleaning and repairing the furniture, I throw it all away once, and although it may cost money if I bought it newly. Renya judges that it will take lots of time and effort and he makes the final decision.
The dining room was also similar.
Kitchen utensils were left here, as if it was used on a bizarre murder case indeed, Renya didn’t have any use for it, and everything will also be disposed of.
The kitchen was set up with expensive items using lots of magical item.
While Renya is admiring it, Shion is explaining that it provide water and fire, also its strength and weakness, if a mana stone is refilled, that strange equipment is high tech.
Facilities of the studios were very excellent things.
In order to be able to do blacksmithing, a furnace with a magic stone as a fuel is installed, and in addition to that it is equipped with a sturdy workbench and a wonderful cabinet for putting chemicals and materials, etc. Once this is cleaned, it is in a state where it can be used immediately.
“Was anyone also killed in this workbench……..? (Shion)
Shion says so while staring at the workbench far enough. Renya shook his head.
“No such a thing. If such a thing happened a ghost will come out and preaching it.” (Renya)
Workbench is the workplace of craftsmen.
Renya intends to overlook such things as imitating imperfections, so it’s not crappy.
“Ghost preaching… would you listen …?” (Shion)
“I do not know that. I have never done it. “(Renya)
I went up to the second floor with the three bedrooms.
This is one bedroom of a merchant and his couple, one room for his child, which were originally residents and one bedroom for the visitors.
The furniture and bedding were also left behind, as I could not imagine myself using it, it will also be discarded.
The bathroom is quite spacious, the bathtub is luxurious made of marble, the hot water supply equipment used magic stones as well and it was equipped with a shower, although it was not used for a long time the condition was still pretty good.
“It is nice to have a large bath. It’s so wide that it can be use by several people.” (Shion)
“I do not plan to take a mixed bath,” (Renya)
Shion as usual hiding from the back of Renya but her eyes were shinning looking at the bathroom facilities.
“Don’t you want to see Rona’s bathing form? She’s already wonderful normally, when she get wet, it’s more wonderful.” (Shion)
“I don’t know what more amazing, but, as for me, life and stability of the mind is more precious” (Renya)
Although they would not make noise even if Renya peeked in, Renya is confident that he will not absolutely do such things.
“Wow, How about me? I’m confident that you will– “(Shion)
“It seems better to explain tightly of what you expect of me” (Renya)
While answering with an awkward face, Shion ties her hair up, and the scene that exposes a slightly overwhelming skin may seem to be sexy.
Renya sighs a little to Shion, while she is having a big smile on her face.
They explore the rest of the study and the living room and the child’s room, but there is nothing especially there.
The kind of furniture remained as it was, but it was not in a state that it could be reused, and all the book were gone after arriving at the study.
After looking around all the way, Renya decided to prepare dinner there, appropriately reaping the weed growing in the garden to make space.
Although the cooking facilities from the kitchen is usable we will no use it, as we don’t have any magic stone to fuel it up in the first place.
Preparation of dinning will be done by using fire as it is obvious that can’t be done unless it’s outside.
Picked up the firewood from the inventory and pile up, Shion ignites with magic.
Flour and a crop similar to corn are dried on the pot like a shallow frying pan, mixing it in the boiling water.
If you bake it like this, you can make things like thin bread, but Renya bakes a few pieces of it and then draws oil on the same frying pan, this time it boils meat and vegetables then cut it into bite size, putting in salt and Stir fry it with alcohol and a small amount of honey.
If put soy sauce, sesame oil or mirin in here, you will have grilled meat, but it is not available.
Renya comforted himself, as he couldn’t do anything about it.
Anyway after stir-frying the large dish and add leafy vegetables washed with water, it’s complete.
Placing the leafy vegetables on a thin bread, and putting the fried meat on top of it and roll it then eat it.
I prepared a mustard so that I could affix it as you liked, and arranged something light wine in the drink.
Stir-fried food has a strong taste from the beginning, so that it will not become light tasting even if you is sandwiched in between bread and vegetables.
“Wren iz too focused on the fwood” (Shion)
As Shion said to me, while having a mouthful of food.
Adventurers often do not cook during action.
It is because it’s not good to increase luggage and there is the reality that there are many people who can’t cook.
There are a lot of parties say that when it comes to something like boiling, stir – frying and steaming, they got no skills at all.
It seems that Shion also seems to be the same, and it seems that she was accustomed to saying things like troublesome things are troublesome.
“Staying with you we cannot return to our original life” (Shion)
Having bread rolled with both hands, Shion smiled wryly while taking a bite. Renya took a bite while not understanding what Shion said.
Shion smiling while being embarrassed.
Renya who realized that there was something wrong turned pale suddenly.
“What happened?” (Shion)
“Just now … it’s like somebody laughed … ….” (Renya)
Cooking was done outside.
Neither of two people liked to sit down on the ground directly, so Renya sat down on the chair brought out and was having a meal, there is no one inside the building and with the weed growing out in the garden we can’t see the neighbors.
“Did you hear something?” (Shion)
“I don’t know…….. However I thought I heard someone laughing.” (Renya)
A small girl giggled.
This time the laughter is heard by both of them.
Though Shion turns pale, Renya is alert and looks around, but only female low laughter is heard, being windless and doesn’t affects space in the garden which doesn’t even make any noise coming from the leaf swaying from weeds or the trees freely.
“Re, Renyaa……” (Shion)
“Do not make a miserable voice” (Renya)
Laughter gradually grows and eventually turns louder which sounds like a person going insane.
Shion jumped to Renya’s left shoulder in a semi crying state, holds like she wouldn’t drop a grain of rice by that grip.
Renya hugged Shion’s back with his left arm to calm her down.
“It appeared! It’s a ghost, Renya!” (Shion)
Shion clinging to the shoulder of Renya is shaking it with full power, but the body of Renya does not tremble even if Shion rocks it, whether it is the difference between power and weight.
It’s as if she is clinging to a big tree like a kitten going rampant.
“Well? It seems like it……….”(Renya)
Renya was murmured indifferently while holding Shion during the laughter which doesn’t seems to stop.
“But this is just laughing, it’s just noisy, is it not?” (Renya)
What Renya said passed through ears of Shion and took a few moments to be understood as words in her brain.
“Huh?” (Shion)
Shion pressing her face against Renya’s shoulder, while panicking, looked up at Renya’s face with a look like she heard something unbelievable.
Renya who throws the rest of the bread left in his right into his mouth, slowly chews and swallowed, keeping the word while wondering if he said somewhat strange things.
“Certainly, at times like this even though some measures are necessary, is it fundamentally harmless?” (Renya)
The loud laughter of the woman stopped suddenly whether it heard the words of Renya which said that it was just a noise that is disturbing the neighborhood.
At the same time, from around the garden, a small wind noise is made, then several pieces of gravel strikes at Renya.
While hugging Shion with her eyes closed tight, Renya drew his sword from the right side, blocking the gravel one after another with the broad side of the sword.
“After the laughter, stones came flying, is that what you call Poltergeist?” (Renya)
Small stone that was knocked down and rolled on the ground.
Around the garden, there is nothing unusual.
“Well, what goes next?”
At the end of Renya’s line of sight something questionable happened, as it gushes out from the gap of weeds, many pale people stood up while swaying.
Renya cannot determine its facial expression, just like raising a resentment to the living, it raise its voice.
It penetrated the head into a silver blade protruding to penetrate the darkness of the night and it was scattered.[2]
Shion with closed eyes and still clinging to the left arm of Renya, doesn’t notice that Renya’s stepping slows down.
Besides the ground where weeds grow thick.
Not knowing the state of the grass being stepped on to, He knows that he will definitely get tangled which will hinder their movement.
“What is it, I can cut them right?” (Renya)
Not showing interest in the pale light that is squished somewhere with disappointed voice.
While enjoying the feel and scent of Shion pushed at his left.
Renya smiled while thrusting the sword at the shadow of numerous people that appeared.
“Well then let’s go with the clean-up!” (Renya)
Muri = Nope or impossible, it sounds better in Japanese.Had a hard time translating this line. ( 夜の闇を貫くように突き出された銀の刃に、頭を貫かれて四散した。)
