Let’s assume that the fortune-telling content in these fortune cookies are hints to the lock codes that lead to the [Devil’s Notes]. Then there are five hints remaining.
Regarding ‘back side’, ‘underwear’, and ‘speed violation’, it’s refreshing, so let’s postpone it. The next thing that seems to be easy to understand is the mysterious colors such as ’15 step dull golden ladder’ and ‘Rusty iron Onato color’. . .
I can’t read this ‘Rusty Iron Onato Color’.
“Hey, Navi-san. Can you read what is written here?”
“Unfortunately, we do not support character authentication for things other than books.”
That’s disappointing. Does that mean I can’t get Navi-san’s cooperation? If I can’t read this, I can’t get Navi-san to search for it.
“How do you read it? I think ‘rust’ and ‘iron’ are probably correct, but . . . next is ‘gonoudo’? ‘Onando’? No, ‘Onoudo’?”
As I muttered and groaned, someone put their hand on the back of the sofa on which I was sitting. When I was looking at the fortune-telling paper without looking back, thinking that it was Navi-san, a gentle girl’s voice came down from behind me.
“It’s read as ‘Sabi Tetsu Onando Iro’.”
It was Japanese.
When I stood up from the chair in a hurry and looked back, a girl with glasses stood on the other side of the backrest of the sofa.
Black eyes and black hair tied in pigtails on the side of the neck. The high school girl in a dark green blazer-type uniform is probably ‘Japanese’.
Because I know that uniform. It is a newly redesigned uniform of a famous local high school in my previous life. The redesign was about two years before I died in my previous life. The sister of my friend, who introduced me to the game, did her best to study for the entrance exam for the new uniform, passed it safely, and showed off the uniform.
But why is there a ‘Japanese person’ in a forbidden library in another world? No, wait. Given that the lock code and fortune-telling paper here are in Japanese, is it really that strange?
To me, who was confused, the girl bowed a little with an embarrassed look.
“I’m sorry for talking to you all of a sudden and surprising you. It was my first time meeting someone I didn’t know here, so I was so happy that I talked to you unintentionally.”
“Ah, no. . . yeah. I’m sorry. I didn’t expect anyone else to come. . .”
Who would have imagined that a Japanese high school girl would come.
“No, it’s my fault for talking to you all of a sudden. Oh. . . are you from overseas? You’re good at Japanese.”
I was praised for something. It’s true that I’m a Western girl now, But I was Japanese for 28 years in my previous life. However, I turned 14 years old without a chance to speak Japanese, so I forgot the pronunciation of Japanese a little and it became a mess.
However, even if I talk about my previous life, you won’t believe me, so I’ll introduce myself as a foreigner.
“Thank you for your compliment. Well, nice to meet you. I’m Isabella. Isabella Ali Rottenstein. People call me Bella or Isabella.”
Judging that it is not necessary to say the third daughter of the Duke’s family, I gave my name only.
“Thank you for your kindness. Mashiro Yuuka. Mashiro is the surname and Yuuka is the given name. Everyone calls me ‘Class rep’, but you can call me whatever you want.”
Yuuka seems to be the ‘Class rep’. Certainly, I thought she looked like a class representative. For the time being, it seems that a Japanese forbidden library friend has been made. I’m happy.
Oh, come to think of it, she just told me about the name of the color written on the fortune-telling paper. I was just surprised and forgot the name of the color she told me.
“Excuse me, but could you tell me the name of this color again?”
“It’s okay. The name of the color written on the paper is ‘Sabi Tetsu Onando Iro’, which is almost black gray. I don’t know if it’s okay to say gray because it’s as close to black as possible. But. . . does that help you.”
“Yes!! Very much!!”
I see, as expected, the class rep of the preparatory school is knowledgeable. This will bring me closer to the lock code.
When I felt better, I snapped my fingers in a good mood and summoned Navi-san.
“Come on!! Navi-san!!”
“Yes, are you looking for something?”
“Navi-san, do you have any books about ‘Sabi Tetsu Onando Iro’?”
“Three books on ‘Sabi Tetsu Onando Iro’, two materials, four color sample books, and fifty-two books that seem to be ‘Sabi Tetsu Onando Iro’ on the cover.”
Is the color of the cover included in the target search? Also, ‘It seems to be ‘Sabi Tetsu Onando Iro” is clearly not ‘Sabi Tetsu Onando Iro’. The color name varies from country to country, so it can’t be helped, so it’s a total of 61 books. It’s hard to find a lock code. . .
But it’s getting closer little by little. I looked back to say thank you to ‘Class rep’ again.
“‘Class rep’, thank you so much, . . . Huh? She’s not here.”
Looking back, there was no ‘Class rep’ there. I looked around the surrounding forbidden library. I looked up and looked for her on the ladders, but there was no ‘Class rep’ anywhere.
Just like when she appeared, she suddenly disappeared.
So, I asked Navi-san, who appeared with all the books about ‘Sabi Tetsu Onando Iro’, about ‘Class rep’.
“Hey, Navi-san. The ‘Class rep’ who was here a while ago. . . wasn’t it, um, ‘Mashiro Yuuka’ has already left?”
“I don’t understand the question.”
“Well, ‘Mashiro Yuuka’ was here just now, did she go home?”
“The only user here right now is Isabella-sama.”
“It may be so now, but I was talking about earlier.”
“From the time Isabella-sama came to the forbidden library to the present, there has been only one user, Isabella-sama. The entry of other users was not confirmed. In addition, users named ‘Mashiro Yuuka’ and ‘Class rep’ are not registered.”
. . . . . Horror again.
I can’t do it anymore. I’ve been going through the horror developments that have happened as much as I can for a while, but I can’t do it anymore. The forbidden library, I can’t do research alone here anymore. I don’t want to be alone.
I need Ursch-kun. I need the Ursh-kun ingredient now. I have to replenish the healing Ursch-kun right away, the SAN is already at its limit.
“Navi-san. I want to get out of the library for a while. . .”
“Thank you for using our service today.”
The next moment, I was standing on the edge of the original fountain.
Nani-san!! It’s sudden!! I’ve been kicked out without any amiability or humor!! No, if I can get out, that’s fine!! Ursch-kun, I want to see Ursch-kun!! I want to meet Ursch-kun and smell him!! My mind has been cornered, and Ursch-kun withdrawal symptoms have appeared.
Unlike when entering the forbidden library, the surrounding sounds are coming back and I can leave the fountain.
Talk to Marieta? That’s later!!
I’m sure Ursch-kun said that he was going to do something in the basement of the alchemy department today!! The aim is the alchemy department!! The top priority is a supply of Ursch-kun!!
I heard Miriana calling behind me when I started running to the alchemy department with a dash, but i ignored it. There’s no time for that now.
I ran like the wind through the premises and desperately looked for Ursch-kun in the basement of the alchemy department. A senior in the alchemy department spoke to me.
“Ah, Ursch’s fiancée. What’s wrong?”
“Truly, it’s Ursch-kun’s wife. Are you in a hurry?”
Fortunately, I asked where Ursch-kun was, but I was held back.
“Ah. If it’s Ursch, he’s been working all night every day, so he got sleepy and took a nap on the sofa. . . I’ll wake him up, so could you wait a moment?”
Are you sleeping? Is Ursch-kun sleeping? Don’t wake him up!! I can’t miss this opportunity because it’s rare to see the sleeping face of 15-year-old Ursch-kun, who is so absorbed in his work that he doesn’t sleep well.
“You don’t have to wake him up!! You can let him sleep, so please guide me!!”
“No, he. . . It’s really dirty. He’s sleeping. If we show his fiancée like that and you’re disillusioned, the people who showed you will be killed.”
Do you sleep dirty? What is a dirty way of sleeping? On the contrary, I want to see it!!
“It’s okay!! It doesn’t matter if he grinds his teeth, snores, or drools, so please guide me!!”
Then the question and answer continued for a while, and the senior, who was broken down by my push, reluctantly guided me. He guided me on the condition that it is absolutely a secret from Ursch-kun. You don’t have to be so careful. If it’s Ursch-kun, it can be forgiven by laughing and saying ‘cute’ even if you fart while sleeping!!
Ursch-kun, who was taking a nap on the sofa, was amazing.
His head, or rather, around the shoulder blade (?), was on the armrest of the sofa, a little bit like a warped banzai. Fufu. . . I feel like he’s going to fall. Cute. In addition, one foot was on the backrest. The boots he always wears were thrown away around that area. Whether he took them off together with his boots, or little by little while he was sleeping, his socks came off to the toes and hung there. The socks are about to fall off completely. It’s good.
And above all, the front of his jacket is fully open. they jacket is crumpled, probably because he couldn’t sleep and took it off while he was sleeping. The collarbone, chest, abdomen, and navel are completely visible. I can’t stand it. Hehehe.
“Fiancée-san. Isn’t she close? Should we tear her off?”
“Stop”
“Ursch’s fiancée is the duke’s daughter, isn’t she? She’s so proud, she’s looking at Ursch like she’s licking it, but can we leave it like that?”
“Don’t get involved.”
“Why is Ursch so loved by such a beautiful girl fiancée even though he looks so dull?”
“Is she a beautiful girl?”
“No, it’s the behavior, but she looks like a beautiful girl. Maybe. I’m sure. Yes.”
I could hear them whispering behind me, but I ignored it. I’m busy taking in Ursch-kun.
It’s good that Ursch-kun is sleeping, and I think I should smell the nape of his neck, and I approached Ursch-kun’s head little by little.
. . . . . . . I was captured by the sleeping Ursch-kun.
Despite the tension of me, who stiffened while being captured, and the people around me who thought Ursch-kun had woken up, Ursch-kun kept sleeping while capturing me.
He’s sleeping. He’s sleeping while holding me firmly.
When I quietly sighed in relief that Ursch-kun didn’t wake up, Ursch-kun, who was still sleeping, dragged me up on the sofa and used both legs to hold me tightly.
I’m in the state of being Ursch-kun’s body pillow now. Ursch-kun is warm.
When I was weakened by the continuous horror developments, I was stabbed by a series of Ursch-kun’s sleeping phases, and my consciousness faded away.
“Gyaa!! The duke’s daughter got a nosebleed and fainted!!”
“Seriously, the duke’s daughter!! Even the duke’s daughter get’s a nosebleed?!”
“Someone!! Bring ‘nose paper’, ’tissues’ or ‘waist paper’!!”
“It’s all the same, idiot!!”
“Just hurry up!! I can’t expose the Duke’s daughter like this!!”
“. . . . . . Hey, Ursch. You’ve been awake for a while, haven’t you?”
“I’m sleeping.”
