Isekai Taneuma

The burning Sofia, the real name Emilia Granchester and Feng (the decoy) White (Tsukuba) met eight years ago. Her transfer to the elementary school to which he was attending was at stake.

As the name suggests, Emilia grew up in a foreign-born country and initially could not speak Japanese when she moved. Her hair was golden and her eyes blue, and she looked like a foreign princess who jumped out of a picture book. In a school full of black-eyed black-haired Japanese, it was quite heterogeneous.

She was isolated in no time. When I spoke, I could not understand the words, and the blessed appearance was admirable to the boy, and jealous to the girl. The only person to talk to was a teacher, and I can only imagine how she felt at the time, but she must have felt quite lonely.

By the way, Fengbai has a Chinese name, but both of his parents are Japanese. However, her father's grandmother was from abroad, and Feng happened to have a slightly bright color in her hair due to her inheritance. So Emilia must have misunderstood. One day after school, she spoke to him in English.

I don't think I'll ever get used to school, and if I gave her that, I'd think it would be a straw. Just by looking at the plump expression, Feng also conveyed her feelings. Nevertheless, if he has never spoken English, he does not even know how to write Roman. Whatever they say, it is Mt. Seki that returns it. Soon Emilia realized her mistake and sighed and turned her back. He is relieved that he can't speak English. At that time, however, he was inadvertently holding back her disappointing back.

It would be a lie to say that you had no heart. But more than that, I somehow couldn't leave her alone at that time. If I hadn't stopped here now, I wouldn't be seeing her anymore... somehow. In fact, she was so stuck in school life at this time that she wanted to change schools.

Without knowing that, Feng stopped her and spoke to her in English with a dictionary in one hand. What the hell are you doing here? Then, after a while of silence, she pointed her finger at his phone.

Smartphones were forbidden in elementary school. Some students were allowed to bring it in due to family circumstances, but of course Feng didn't do that and secretly brought it in to play the game. I'm sure they blamed me for seeing it. He tried to make an excuse for Ava, but in English there was no explanation and he was stuck in no time.

However, seeing him in such a rugged state, Emilia was also in a hurry. She didn't mean to blame him for bringing her phone, but she tried to tell him otherwise because she realized he was in a hurry by mistake, but he didn't understand the same words, so she just stopped going.

Strange meeting lasts a few seconds.

Emilia pointed at his phone over and over again in an attempt to solve his mistake. Feng was a feng, trying to interpret her gesture, and over and over again saw her pointing at the smartphone.

It's a common design, and it doesn't have any characteristics. It's not particularly luxurious, and it's not a substitute that makes people proud. If there's only one thing that stands out, it's that you're wearing a strap so you don't drop it. Feng glanced at the strap. At the tip of the strap was a small folding crane made of souvenir thousands of pieces of paper that my sister bought on her school trip.

Could this be it? I heard that seeing origami cranes was very surprising because there was no origami culture in foreign countries. When he remembered it, he demonstrated how to fold a crane using Kent paper that he had for use in drawing while returning a general Japanese reply.

Emilia didn't mean it differently, but he didn't have the language skills to correct it or just do it, and he seemed to have settled down, so I left it to him to break the crane.

Eventually, when he finished folding the crane, he gave me Kent's paper and said you should try it, so Emilia tried to emulate it. It was surprisingly difficult to do so, and while they had failed many times, one day they were obsessed with folding the crane.

When the lower school chime rang and the teacher came to close the classroom door, the two folded the spider and crane without turning on the electricity. The teacher asked Emilia, who could hardly make friends, to take Feng home, even though she was a boy, because she was a friend. Feng was surprised not to be told such a thing, but somehow he felt proud and responded honestly. On their way home, of course, the two did not say a word.

The next day... after school, Emilia approached and secretly showed Phoenix her banned phone. There was a screen of the game he was playing yesterday, and at that moment he realized what Emilia was trying to say yesterday.

Since then, they have been playing game games after school, worrying about time so that they won't be found by teachers.

She quickly became accustomed to her class of gamers. Because even if you don't understand the words, the fun of the game is universal. While playing the game, my friends grew more and more. Among other things, I gradually learned Japanese from Netslang.

And when she became comfortable with everyday conversations, she was isolated. Gamers were mostly boys, so she was hated by girls. It was even worse. When she went from elementary school to junior high school, she became increasingly isolated. She was so beautiful that the middle school boys and girls had to be unconscious.

Slippery stretched hands and feet on a beautiful blonde that no Japanese would ever get. Because of her presence, it became foolish to put on color contacts and so on, and even though nothing had been done from the Gallic seniors, I was eating the total scan. As always, all my friends were nerds, which drove their anger.

Feng hated being seen with tinted glasses as her friend. I was certain that I was aware of her, but I was afraid that I would be able to see more of her than that. Secondary school students are about the same size as adults and children in one and three years. They're after Emilia, showing Feng the malice they're ripping out.

And he made the biggest mistake. One day, the senpai of the ministry asked me to introduce her. The relationship between the top and bottom of the department activities was hard to refuse. Above all, I didn't know what I would do if I refused. And since Senpai said he just wanted to be friends with her, he believed it.

One day after school, Emilia, summoned to play by the two of us, seemed shocked by the presence of a man she didn't know. Feng told her that he was not a bad man. She was listening to it in silence. Senpai spoke relentlessly to Emilia and eventually began to treat Feng as a distractor. He was an air-readable man, so he left without disturbing his seniors. I think it would have been terrible if I hadn't come back.

It was only after a while that I began to hear the bad news of Emilia. Since then, Senpai has been openly ignoring Feng. Feng had difficulty going to the ministry and soon lost contact with him. At the same time, both Emilia and I lost contact. He was worried about her, but he didn't have the courage to go to see him himself, and she never finally came to see him.

Carefully, the summer vacation is just passing with the end of the semester, no clubs, no Emilia... and Emilia stopped coming to school when the second semester started.

"Funnuuuuuuuuuuu!!

Feng woke up with a strange voice of unclear significance, beating his wrist to the ground with a bounce that tried to fly with his hands and feet, and finally crawled to the ground again because of the pain.

"Uh-oh, uh-oh..."

He screamed and rolled around the ground. The pain finally subsided, so when I put my arm on the ground to carefully wake my body with tearful eyes, there was a crunch and something touched my hand. I wonder what it is. Looking at the fingertips touching,

"... Chiyoshi? Why is this happening here...."

Feng picked up the painted Japanese paper with a beautiful pattern and gave it a try. The front was printed with a beautiful pattern, but the back was like a plain, often mass-produced origami. It was thin and cheap, but it also seemed like an industrial product made with modern technology. Or perhaps so. Why is this really happening? Is this kind of excavation (auto parts) also out of place? While confused, Feng folded the origami in half and put it in his chest pocket, and looked around.

It was in the middle of the training ground, as before. However, for some reason, there are no signs of people around and they are quiet. Burning soil and shock-drilled ground vividly described the intense fighting there. Where did all those soldiers go? Looking at the entrance and exit of the training ground, which was closed by an iron door, Feng remembered happiness when he saw a pile of shattered iron cages next to it.

"So, did I just magically blow it up!?

A fireball that flew towards him just before he fainted. Recalling the size and the fever, Feng trembled. I'm sure that was a direct hit and I was badly injured.

However, he hastily checked his body, but his body was pinned, and if he didn't see any injuries, his hands and feet weren't ripped off, and he didn't fly. The clothes were as they were and refreshed as new. I didn't think such an accident had occurred.

"Ouch... did you dream about it???

That said, the memories before and after the accident were vague. At that time, Feng was drinking an MP potion in an attempt to gain magic... immediately after drinking it, he felt unusually excited and felt like he could do anything. From the bottom of my body, I feel like I'm not myself anymore, and I think I was doing a lot of strange things, but I can't remember what I was doing.

I feel like I was fighting something. It's like a blue rabbit with fallen eyes graduated from this domination with 21 balls... what is that?

"I knew it... was a dream??

As for me, I did feel like my hands and feet were blown away by Kazuya's magic, but it was mixed with absurd hallucinations, and I didn't really know which one was the real memory.

Feng told herself with a sigh. Let's calm down a little.

Normally, it's impossible to leave an injured person in a place like this. Isaac no longer seemed to be expecting the incompetent Phoenix, but he should be treated for as many injuries as he can. If not, at least Jeanne would be angry and have a bad impression of the Kazuya people.

In that case, it was all a dream until now, and Feng was snoring in the middle of the training ground. But that was a strange story. There must have been a lot of soldiers here in the morning when my people gathered at this training ground. If Feng was lying in the middle of it, he wouldn't be able to help, so he would at least avoid it.

Where is the dream coming from and where is the reality?

He twisted his neck and looked up at the sky. Does it look sepia because it's dusk? If so, half a day has passed since I came to this place in the morning. I don't think I can sleep forever in the middle of such a huge place without anyone seeing or blaming me for anything for so long.

So, what time is it? With that in mind, Feng opened the status screen.

"Oh, oh...?"

Feng Bai LVUP

† Jeanne Dark † LVUP

Feng rubbed his eyes. He opened his status because he tried to see the time displayed on the screen in the old world habit… Of course, we couldn't find the current time, but instead he found something else.

The first thing I noticed was that an item called PARTY was added at the bottom of the status. The members are myself and Jeanne. Does seeing the word EXP mean there's a level at the party?

And at first glance, there was no change in status, so he almost missed it, but when he looked closely, he was surprised that his level was 2. No matter what you did, you didn't get any experience, but at what point did you go up? I mean, it doesn't seem like the level went up or the status went up, so it doesn't matter if it doesn't matter....

What worries me more is the " LVUP" that appears next to the name in the party column. Not only to myself, but also to Jeanne. Does this mean they leveled up? Or is it that pushing this like a button will raise the level? I don't want to push it yet, but I'm very worried that if I play it badly, it may be irrecoverable....

In any case, I remembered the addition of the concept of parties. This is speculative, but I wonder if the party was formed by the two of us talking about leaving the castle last night. In support of that, the names Kazuya, AVIRL, and Leroy Jenkins are missing. If I had asked them to leave the castle and got on that story, they would have seen it here.

By the way, I had completely forgotten the existence of excitement and things that were flown to this world, but in the original world game, it was usual to act at parties. From the menu screen displaying the status, it was obvious that parties and friends could be searched, and it was a short way for beginners to form parties and get higher-level players to lead.

It is strange, however, that Isaac did not recommend a party when Feng tried to level up. Everyone knows it's much easier to have a higher level of companions destroy a monster than to slaughter a cow while the Level 1 Phoenix is dying.

But didn't you do it because maybe there's no such thing as a party in this world?

Or perhaps so. Because the party function is too convenient. As well as sharing your experience, you can quickly find out where your logged in buddies are, and even if you're far away, you can have a conversation in party chat. If this were real, humans would be talking on telepathy by now, and the rich would be hiring mercenaries to take their place. At least Isaac and the others didn't look like that.

So this party list on Feng's status screen is probably just a fake and meaningless one.

He thought so, somehow pointing his finger at Jeanne's name and talking in a party chat like he always did in that world over there.

"Um, Sea cue, Sea cue... can you hear me? Jeanne"

Eh!? Who...? Who are you!?

However, against my will, the reply came back quickly. Feng was surprised and his eyes twitched.

"Ah, is that...? Seriously, can you hear me?

Hallucinations......? That's weird. Am I tired? "

"No, I'm not hallucinating. It's me, my grandson."

I'm not old enough to have grandchildren yet!!... White?

"Oh, I noticed there was nobody around. What's wrong with everybody? Where are you now?

That's my line!!!!!

My ears became tingling. As Feng, I had no intention of asking, but apparently there was something very difficult going on over there. While suddenly shouting his eyes in black and white,

"Hey, don't yell at me all of a sudden! What a surprise...."

It was me who was surprised. Anyway, where are you now? I mean, how are we talking about this?

"Wherever I am, I'm still at the training ground. How do I do that is party chat. Yeah, yeah, it looks like you can use this.

Party...... chat? A training ground... that's why... we're training too... but... "

"Hmm? It's kind of hard to hear."

"Really... where!?... we're in the training yard... white..."

Hey, Jeanne ~?

I couldn't hear Jeanne anymore.

"I don't know what's going on... but I don't know if it passed the magnetic storm."

The last thing I heard was Jeanne's voice, and somehow it was like a cell phone when the radio waves stopped coming. Of course, there is no cell phone base station, so there must be another reason... no matter how much I thought about it, I didn't think of anything like that.

What bothers me is that

"The last thing he said was weird. They're in a training ground... a training ground... that's what this is all about?

If there was a second training ground or a third training ground that Feng didn't know about, it wouldn't be like that. Then why did he say such an impossible thing?

Feng stared up at the sky.

Speaking of impossible, the color of this sepia-sepia sky also seems strange... it seems like it is at dusk, but I feel uncomfortable that something is missing. Somehow, it feels like you're looking at a picture.

When I was wondering why, I finally realized why. There is no gradient. Normally, at dusk, the western sky is bright and the eastern sky is dark. The color of the sky should gradually change, just as I said it was in the middle when I looked directly above. But now the sky is a Sepia color and there is no such thing.

When I looked at it that way, there were other strange things. You can see as many stars as you want at dusk, but you can't see them at all. Of course, I don't see a moon or cloud. I thought it had calmed down a little while ago, but when I looked at it, I could see that the wind was incredibly strong.

Not only were there no signs of people at the training ground, but so were the corridors of the castle that could be seen from here. Normally, one or two people would be walking. That said, the outside of the castle was supposed to lead to downtown, but I didn't even hear the noise of the city.

I wonder if anything is wrong with this.

Feng finally felt nervous about his position. Apparently, I am involved in something strange.

However, it is strange to say that the summoning of another world is strange in itself. You won't be able to be more surprised at this level now. If Feng and Jeanne are in the same training ground, is there a different dimension here, or did they have a time slip? Maybe it's really a dream. I don't know what happened, but at least if you're blurry here, you won't find the cause.

There is only one thing you can do without hesitation. Find a way to get back from here. He concluded that he would first leave the training ground and enter the castle.
