Chapter 3: 3 – Safe

Chapter 3 – Safe

“What is Japanese? My lady”

Martha asks with a strange look.

“It’s a foreign word. Maybe in the far east?”

I just answered it halfheartedly, but on this world’s map, the east is an unexplored land.

Even the most expensive maps do not depict the whole picture of this world.

“More than that, are father and the others okay?”

Martha said earlier that they were safe, but I want to reaffirm.

“Other than the young lady, everyone regained their consciousness in an hour and started to live like usual the next day. It seemed everyone only ate a little bit... Young lady is the only one who ate the whole thing...”

She implicitly said I am a glutton. But it’s matsutake mushrooms, you know? Even in my past life, I didn’t eat it that much. Even if I don’t remember, I will eat matsutake by instinct!

“But everyone’s a little weird... They all have a perplexed look on their face. Even though they are accustomed to Young lady’s eccentricities.”

Hey Martha! What do you mean by eccentricities!

Martha is always so cold... Can you be more gentle since I have just recovered?

“I always say this but, Young lady will be 12 years old this year. Even though starting next year you will live in the royal capital, Martha is worried! Please stop having interests in insects or mushrooms or insects or insects-“

Crap! She starts nagging me again.

This will be long... and Martha hates insects too much.

Taking the chance of father’s younger brother graduating from Royal University, our family plans to shift territory management and live in the royal capital. Our land is a borderland that will take 15 days of a carriage ride to the royal capital.

Our main industry is silk goods, from sericulture until weaving, we produce fine quality silks. There have been changes in the royal capital’s fashion trend, and silks from Count Stuart’s Palace has been called as the highest quality products within the clothing industry.

The victor of the battle royal is this kid, huh.

Is it just me...? It’s a little? ...kind of...? I feel like it’s getting huge.

Eight round pupils? are looking this way.

Yeah, you’re not bad. Sorry that I couldn’t feed you...

Taking the insect cage, I want to confirm the spider’s condition. Because the spider has always been treated affectionately, when it saw Emma’s face, it approaches Emma too.

“Hiiiiii”

Looking at the spider who comes out of the cage, Martha runs away... It seems she will not come back in a while. Martha can’t understand the spider’s greatness like always, huh.

Even so, younger brother... To use your sister’s treasure to clear out people, what a guy!

Well...to say clearing out people... it’s more like clearing out Martha...

William has been looking this way with a searching gaze for a while now...

Even if I want to say it, I can’t. Even if I want to hear it, I won’t. I want to know, but I don’t want to know. Without any conviction, I hesitate.

What I was thinking about, maybe... you too are thinking the same. William properly meets my eyes and opens his mouth like he has determined something.

“... Mina-nee?”

(T/N: –nee from onee-san which means older sister. Mina-nee = Older sister Mina. But it sounds weird to me so I just left it.)

Emma too is determined and opens her mouth.

“...Peita?”

The two’s voice overlapped.

” “Is this another world reincarnation!!!” “
