My First Trip was to Another World

Day two of the city by the sea. I'm going to get up early today and have Raymond's friend meet me. Raymond is supposed to come to this inn for breakfast, so we'll meet him there.

We woke up early and showed our faces in the dining room. Then, Raymond had already arrived to face the massive amount of food.

"Morning. That's a lot faster."

Speak to Raymond. There wasn't one Raymond today, there was another man sitting in the front. I have about four servings of food in front of me, most of which is probably for lemons.

"Oh, you were late. This is the friend he was talking about yesterday. I'm a fisherman in this city, Tyrone."

"It's Tyrone. Greetings."

The man who named him Tyrone lowered his head gently. Am I old enough to be over thirty? I guess he's younger than Raymond...... I think it's a little early to retire the adventurer.

"I'm Koh. Nice to meet you."

"Co... what... you know?

Tyrone opened his eyes in surprise. I tend to forget, but I'm a little celebrity because of Lumia. Can't help but be surprised......

"Well, you are. Now I'm just an adventurer, never mind."

"Come on, you... you know Doelai's..."

Tyrone didn't care what I said and spoke to Raymond. Seriously, it's not that great...

"Hmm? Really? Koh's not such a great person, is he?

Raymond returned it flat. If you don't treat me as comfortable as this, I'd rather have trouble with this one.

"Well, that's the thing. I'm a junior adventurer, so treat me with that intent."

I want you to treat me normally because I don't feel well when I'm strangely awed.

"Well... I'll let you. So, Raymond wants you to meet him, is that okay with you?

Tyrone was listening to Raymond. Then explain it in a little more detail... There's been an extra exchange.

"Right. I heard you were playing fisherman. Would you sell me a little if I could?

"Of course you're good. As many fish as you want that don't line up on the market."

Tyrone accepted with pleasure. There are as many delicious fish as there are without having to be on the market. Fish that can be discarded for such reasons as the hassle of curling or the lack of edible parts.

"Heh... that helps. Let me do that."

Whatever it is, it's after the meal that moves. Raymond eats fast, so we should hurry up and eat too.

I thought about it that way and tried to leave this place, and Tyrone dropped the potpourri trying to lift the fork. Tear that up as Raymond laughs.

"Dude, are you tired?

"Asshole, you're not moving as fast as you can."

Tyrone replies by convulsing his face and reaches for the fork that fell on the floor. Tyrone then set aside, wrapping his arms around a chair that was nearby and kneeling. Claire rushes to lend a hand.

"Are you okay? You don't seem to be feeling well..."

"That's crazy... I'm blinded. Maybe you should go home and sleep today."

If you look closely at Tyrone, he doesn't look well either.

"Did you eat anything weird?

Raymond says worryingly.

"I went home from the fishery and ate some meshi lightly, but I don't remember eating anything weird"

Tyrone gave it back with his neck tilted. I just had it with you, are you having breakfast here again... Aren't you overeating something?

"Fair enough. I'll send it to you."

Looks like Raymond decided to cut up his meal and send Tyrone away. Tyrone doesn't seem to feel comfortable with his feet, so it's dangerous if you don't lend him a shoulder.

"Then we'll hang out too. All right?

Look at everyone and say it. I haven't had breakfast yet, but not if I'm saying that now. I have luggage, so it's hard to send Raymond alone. Besides, I'd better lend you a shoulder, too.

"Of course it is. I'll take Mr. Raymond's things."

"Oh, please. Then, let's also take the bread on the table. It's a waste of time to leave."

The bread is leftover from Raymond's eating, but remains in large quantities untouched. It's pretty wasted because if I take a seat, they'll clean it up. Leave the luggage to Luna and ask Claire and the others to bring the bread.

"Right. Take anything else you might be able to bring home."

Claire seemed to have other dishes with eyes on her. This is the time, so have Raymond bring as many dishes as he can that Raymond doesn't have. The breakfast bill is going to float.

"Then the Claires ask us to prepare to leave. We'll go first, we'll meet later."

I also asked them to bring the luggage I left in the inn room. We split it up here in two hands, but if we check the map for signs, we'll know where each other is. I don't have a particular problem with it as long as I'm away in the city.

"Copy that. Be careful."

Hearing Claire's reply, I hung Tyrone's left arm on my shoulder. The right arm is grabbed by Raymond.

"... I'm sorry. I'll keep the fish cheap."

Tyrone moved his mouth. I guess I'm too sick to speak well. You should leave as soon as possible.

"Well, don't worry about it"

That said, I'd love it if you made it cheaper.

Tyrone, sandwiched between me and Raymond, keeps his entire weight with me and Raymond looking blue. I don't seem to be feeling any better than I thought, but I wonder if I even ate rotten fish...

"Koh, here it is. Open the door, please."

Walking hundreds of meters. Raymond stopped and said. Looks like Tyrone's home was pretty close. Beautiful bungalow wooden architecture, but seems a bit narrow, maybe 2LDK.

Even though the living space is quite small, there is a warehouse-like building on the property that is quite large. Perhaps fisherman's tools are in there. Work enthusiasm.

When I opened the door and went inside, a woman about a little younger than Tyrone had fallen in the middle of the room. Her face is pale and faceless. I'm sick to see it. It feels pretty serious.

"Mr. Tyrone... a lot..."

The woman squeezed out her weak voice. Hi Lu Rhythm doesn't seem to be turning... is this really just around for a meal?

"What's up!?"

Tyrone moves his mouth and screams.

"Heino... it's a lot..."

The woman seemed to have spoken someone's name, but she couldn't hear it well.

Is this woman Tyrone's wife? I'm just curious, but I'm more worried about my condition now than I am about that. It would be hard on you, but you seem to be worried about someone. Your mouth is paralyzed or your mouth is not moving well. He can't even seem to stand, he's moving to crawl.

This is definitely not just around to eat......

"Where is he?

"Shinjitsu..."

Hard to hear, but I probably said 'It's the bedroom'. It's pathetic to make this guy talk, so I ask Tyrone where the bedroom is.

"Where's the bedroom?

"Over there... beyond that door..."

Tyrone forced his immobile fingers to move, pointing to the door behind the room. First place Tyrone on the floor and hurry to the bedroom.

There, one child was laid back in bed. I'm not sure how old the child is, but maybe five.

Traces of vomiting can also be seen in children's mouths. He seems to be breathing shallow and barely conscious. He peeks into me with a vain eye. I have a bad feeling...

Return from the bedroom to the living room and speak to Tyrone.

"I know this symptom. Tell me what you ate this morning."

"It's a regular fish...... As usual, I ate fish they couldn't buy on the market"

That's not what I want to hear. It's a specific type of fish. Just don't you see the name is different? It's quicker to see the real thing.

"Where is that wreckage?

"It's still in the kitchen... it's in the trash"

In the corner of this living room, there is a corner with a little cooking table and a small one, which is only famous for its kitchen. There's a thin dirty crate placed on the wall, but that's probably the trash can.

When I opened the lid of the crate, my eyes met the glittering eyes of the dead fish. Features a stuck face, thick lips on sharp teeth and, most importantly, rounded Gyoro eyes... I have a bad feeling about it. I don't know the fine kind, but it's a fugue.

"This fish isn't a monster...?

I lifted Fugue's head and showed it to Tyrone.

"No, normal fish..."

I asked him if he didn't think so, but I knew he couldn't. If the fugue is a demon, the poison is a magic poison, so it can be easily detoxified. But if you're not a demon...... natural poison can't be detoxified by using healing magic.

"This is poisonous, isn't it? There's no way a fisherman doesn't know, is there?

In Japan, traces have been found eating fugue since the Rope period. There is no evidence, but there would have been someone who died. It's a fish known for such a long time that the presence of that poison should also be known in this world.

"I know that. But I've never hit you before. We're in a state where this fish poison doesn't work."

"I don't have that physique! This fish has different poisonous strengths and weaknesses depending on the individual."

Tyrone seemed to think it was okay because it never happened before. For your convenience…….

The fugue incorporates and accumulates poison from outside the body, so the amount of poison varies depending on the food, environment, and season. Sometimes eating just the same parts of the same type doesn't strike the individual.

"But I'm supposed to eat the most, it's not that bad. Better think of it as a different cause..."

Is that it? Really specific? No, no, Fugue poison should hit you equally.

"From the symptoms, I'm pretty sure. In particular, the child's symptoms are quite severe"

I have heard that many poisons change their effectiveness depending on their weight. It means that people who weigh less are more likely to get addicted in smaller amounts. It may be taken for granted that the child's symptoms are severe and Tyrone's symptoms are mild.

"Um... can you manage with healing magic...?

Luna pinched her mouth worryingly. But when illness or natural poison is the opponent, healing magic is powerless.

Previously, when I met Dikichi the bear, I tried to detoxify him by healing magic. It looked like it could have been detoxified then, but I actually don't think so. When I think about it, I think I just relieved the symptoms caused by the poison.

"I don't know that unless I try. But I don't think you want to..."

When I tried Dikichi, it was an addiction symptom caused by poisonous mushrooms. The mushroom at that time was Benitengtake. The main symptoms are nausea and abdominal pain. I think those symptoms were the only ones that worked with healing magic. Assuming that, I can explain that the healing magic worked. Originally a poison that is hard to die from, so as long as you reduce nausea and abdominal pain, you can wait for it to heal naturally.

That is not the case in the case of fugue poison. This poison stops and chokes the muscle movements needed to breathe. I have healed somewhere in my body and my symptoms will not be relieved.

Sure, I guess the heart and brain kept moving... If I kept breathing artificially until the fugue poison drained out of my body, I don't think I would have died. However, only if high-performance artificial respirators are in the immediate vicinity and can be addressed as soon as possible. Naturally, there are no respirators right now.

"Well, what can I do..."

Tyrone yelled in a hurry as Luna shrugged with a complex look on her face.

"Hey, can't you handle it!

"I don't care if they say so..."

If you can help me, you better help me. I know that, but I'm not a doctor. There are only a few things I can do.

"You're an apostle!? Ask Master Lumia!

"As much as I prayed to God, does the poison go away!

I put it a little harshly, but even Lumia can't detoxify it. It was the Lumias who developed the chanting magic, so the magic we can use is no different from ours.

"Even Master Lumia can't help it..."

"You bet. It's a human job to solve the problem in front of us. Whatever it is, don't push it against God."

Lumia is lazy in the first place, so she won't move as much as she prayed. If you want him to work, you need tons of food.

Well... now it's more of a cure than that. Can't you just keep hanging the healing magic... There are three patients, me and Luna and Mr. Lily. If we use healing magic, I feel we have to do something about it. I know it's hard, but let's do what we can.
