Traveling through time? You can reach another world as soon as you leave your house

With sharp eyes, I spotted the figure of a drunken genius bassist through the gap in the crowd.

Lu Ren couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

"acquaintance?"

Tanya blinked curiously.

"Well, she's an alcoholic tenant who makes a living by playing in a band. She's pretty good. I'll take you to see her, after all, it's rare to see her singing outdoors."

Lu Ren smiled and took the cute little girl with him and walked towards the crowd.

And those catchy tunes and sunny and cheerful lyrics have already reached my ears——

“Don’t need make-up.”

(No makeup required.)

“To cover up.”

(To cover up something.)

"Being the way that you are is enough!"

(Just being yourself is enough!)

As dusk gradually approached.

Hiroi Kikuri was sitting on a bench, holding a bass and crossing her legs, singing with a silly smile and drinking cheap wine in a bohemian manner.

At the same time, he suddenly discovered that a familiar figure seemed to appear among the crowd of onlookers.

She immediately became even more excited and sang loudly.

And those extremely cheerful lyrics also appeared in the mouths of the smiling audience around them -

"Everyone else in the room can see it, Everyone else but you~"

(Everyone in the room can see your beauty, except yourself~)

"Baby you light up my world like nobody else, The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed~"

(Baby, no one lights up my world like you do, the way you flip your hair makes me feel overwhelmed~)

"But when you smile at the ground it ain't hard to tell~"

(But it's not hard to notice when you lower your head and smile~)

"You don't know oh oh——"

(you do not know--)

"You don't know you're beautiful!!!"

(You don't know you are beautiful!!!)

Sing and sing.

Everyone couldn't help shaking their feet or jumping up and down in place and dancing in cheers.

After all, this lighthearted guitar pop melody, and the innocent and cute English song that can stir up the atmosphere, can really stir up people's emotions and make everyone be infected by each other's emotions and start an impromptu performance.

This song is exactly——

What Makes You Beautiful.

The extremely cheerful atmosphere was so intense that even two giant dragons, one green and one white, who were passing by on their way home in the sky, couldn't help but cast their gazes downwards.

Not to mention the little girl who is surrounded by this atmosphere.

The delicate jade feet in comfortable short boots were shaking unconsciously, and even the petite body began to sway gently.

Obviously, this atmosphere was not suitable for her, but at this moment, Tanya could not help but sing along softly, and couldn't help feeling a kind of pure happiness.

That drunken bassist sang really well~

Well, in every sense of the word.

Standing among the cheering crowd, the fair-skinned little girl with blonde hair had an adorable smile on her face.

And at this moment, without any warning.

The man next to me suddenly said this casually.

"Hey, Tanya-chan, would you like to stay at my house?"

The voice just fell.

The little girl was stunned for a moment, her eyes showing a bit of disbelief.

But what the other party said next made her realize that she had not heard wrongly.

"Although I may be talking nonsense, I really don't want you to return to the world where a young girl would go to the battlefield. Of course, the decision of whether to stay or go is in your hands. No matter what choice you make, I am willing to respect it."

Lu Ren looked down at the adorable little girl in front of him.

He chuckled softly, his tone gentle enough to dispel all doubts and anxieties.

But Tanya still hesitated.

"...I'll cause you trouble."

she said.

There seemed to be a hint of struggle on that young and delicate face.

"It's not a big deal, just taking care of a kid. I'm free all day anyway~"

Lu Ren chuckled to himself.

"No, it's not a problem of this magnitude. I, I..."

Looking up at the man in front of him.

Tanya was very conflicted at the moment, and seemed to be making some painful decision.

As for whether she is willing to stay?

Of course I am willing to do so!

Rather.

On one side is a peaceful world with a civilized and moral daily life. You can sleep on a clean and warm bed, eat warm and delicious food, take a bath in a bathtub filled with hot water, have your own independent room, and even everyone you meet will look at you with kindness.

On the other side is the world of war, with only a difficult life where one is uncertain of one's future, only a cold and hard bed on which one can hardly sleep, only dry and unpalatable bread and potatoes, only cold towels to rub the body, and only concentrated barracks with no privacy at all. Even everyone one meets must be treated with caution.

With such a choice, I think everyone knows which one to choose, right?

Unfortunately......

She is a burden.

"I've been targeted by an evil guy who calls himself God, and I don't want to get you into trouble because of myself..."

Even if I would be sent back to the original terrible war world.

But after hesitating for a long time, Tanya still went against her rationalist theory of interests and chose to be honest with the man who saved her.

Even though what she said might sound like a joke or a prank to most people,...

But she finally chose to speak out.

Just to prevent that bastard from "existing" and targeting his benefactor.

But if that were the case, wouldn't I have to leave this civilized world? Ha, it was like a beautiful dream.

As expected, she was ultimately deprived of a peaceful daily life.

Tanya laughed at herself miserably in her heart.

But, the next moment...

"it does not matter."

Just such a simple sentence made the little girl who pretended to be strong have tears in her eyes.

In the crowd that was still cheering happily, Lu Ren was looking at the child while thinking back to when he had used his cell phone to inquire and confirm with a lazy angel who lived downstairs while the child was sleeping.

As a result, he got some news.

That is, even for God, searching and traveling through the world is not an easy task.

Moreover, the being in charge of governing this world seems to be a water goddess who is very hostile to "pagans" and "evil gods".

It seems that as long as there are foreign gods who dare to come here, she will expel them without hesitation at the first opportunity, and even chase them in a rage to continue making trouble and blackmailing them before she will give up. She doesn't act like a goddess at all.

He is also a very difficult guy.

so......

"The existence you are talking about cannot come here, so there is no need to worry about anything. Just tell me your truest thoughts."

Gently stroking the other's soft and fluffy golden hair.

Lu Ren knelt down on one knee, looking at the cute little girl in front of him who seemed to be trying hard not to cry, with an indescribably gentle look in his eyes.

"Tanya-chan, would you let me take care of you?"

He asked softly, his tone calm but warm and reassuring.

"Would you like to be part of my family?"

"......Um."

Her delicate body trembled slightly as she sobbed softly.

Tanya, who finally had no worries at all, silently hugged the man who was kneeling on one knee in front of her, buried her pretty face in his warm arms, clutched his clothes tightly with her small hands, and pleaded with a hint of tears in her voice.

"Lu Ren, please take me in. I want to be with you."

this moment.

The little girl, who had experienced so much hardship and suffering, finally chose to open her heart without reservation for the first time, gave all her trust, and made this request.

In response, the man gently picked up the pitiful blonde girl and slowly stood up among the cheering crowd.

Holding the soft and fragrant beauty in my arms, my heart is moved.

finally.

Lu Ren looked at Tanya, the girl in his arms with tears in her eyes, as lovable as an elf. She had become his little baby. Lu Ren lowered his head silently with a slightly raised corner of his mouth and gave a gentle kiss on the child's fair and smooth forehead with utmost doting.

"With great pleasure, my child."

ps1: This chapter is a big one, and according to the overwhelming victory of readers' votes in favor in Chapter 77, it was finally decided to let Tanya stay and live with the protagonist, and the current relationship positioning is like this -

The single heroine, Rimuru.

My younger sister Milim.

Daughter: Tanya.

As for other female acquaintances, they are all friends and will not make the protagonist feel shy or have feelings like heartbeat.

ps2: By the way, the sixth different world has been chosen, but what bothers me is the seventh different world. Or, mainly, I am not sure whether to let the "Royal Anglican Knights" mentioned before appear.

Because, I originally planned to leave the "final brigade" to Tanya, but now it seems a bit unnecessary...

Well, not necessarily.

After all, there is a world to go to later that will definitely come in handy.

That is the world where a certain bald caped man lives, and he can direct the spearhead of killing—

Pointing at the weirdo_(:3」∠)_
