Anime: Re:Zero - Jobless Reincarnation

Rudeus asked curiously, "How did you read the letter before? You said before that you learned about our situation from Paul's letter."

Gilenu said calmly, "Of course I asked someone else to read it for me." She handed the envelope to Rudeus who was closest to her.

Rudeus nodded in understanding, took the envelope, opened it, and read: "Dear Rudeus and Roya, since you are reading this letter, I am afraid I am no longer in this world."

"What?" Gilenu exclaimed and stood up.

Luo Ya looked at the beastman who was 1.8 meters tall. To be honest, he didn't expect the roof of this carriage to be so high...

"Please sit down, Gileno. There are more behind." Rudeus asked Gileno to sit down.

"Well, I see." Gileno sat down.

Luo Ya's mouth twitched. The painting was too bizarre and he didn't know what to say.

Rudeus continued, "I was just joking. I just wanted to write this down. I think you guys must be confused about what happened. You can ask the muscle tumbler in front of you... Although I really want to say this, his brain is made of muscle, so he probably can't explain it in detail."

"What!" Gilenu roared and stood up.

Luo Ya curiously leaned over to take a look at the contents of the envelope, and said to the beastman: "Sit down, Gilenu, the next paragraph is praising you."

"Well, I see." After saying that, Gileno really sat down obediently.

Luo Ya was amazed and felt that this person was extremely interesting.

Rudeus glanced at the blond guy standing next to him. From his expression, one could tell that this guy had some bad idea.

Rudeus continued to read the letter in his hand: "That girl is the Sword King. If you want to learn swordsmanship, you won't be able to find someone more suitable than her unless you go to the holy land of swordsmen. Dad can vouch for her strength because I have never beaten her... except in bed."

Luo Ya curled his lips, lamenting that Paul had a short memory. Rudeus' face twitched and he roared in his heart, "Stop writing unnecessary words, stupid Paul."

However, Gilenu's expression was not that unhappy.

This made Rudeus feel a little relieved. After all, the big sister in front of him looked very difficult to deal with.

"Then, Rudeus's job is to go to the largest city in Fitoa Territory and serve as a tutor for a certain young lady. I want you to teach her arithmetic, reading and writing, and simple magic. She is a very willful young lady, and very rude, to the point that the school asked her not to go to school. So far, many tutors have been driven away by her... But I believe you should be able to think of a way to deal with it."

"How can you come up with a solution? You actually pushed all the problems onto me to solve..." Rudeus complained quietly, feeling a little strange, and did not mention Roya's name.

After looking at the following content, Rudeus continued reading: "As for Roya, with his strength, he will surely be able to learn the sword skills that Gilena knows very quickly. Wait until Roya can defeat her before going to the Holy Land of Swords. With such strength, the master will take good care of you even when you get there."

Gileno looked at Roya with great surprise.

Looking closely, the long, smooth golden hair was tied behind her, and the sunlight shone through the curtains onto Luoya's young and pretty face.

The red-gold pupils always give people a sense of majesty, and the dazzling long hair adds a touch of charm to the boy.

"Interesting, Paul said that you will be able to learn all my sword skills soon." Gileno said lightly.

She had no complaints, but was surprised that Paul would praise his son so highly.

Rudeus continued reading the letter in his hand: "For the next five years, you must live in the eldest lady's house and teach her. Five years. During this period, you are not allowed to go home or write letters. Because as long as you are here, Sylphy cannot be independent. And not only Sylphy, I feel that you also tend to be overly dependent on her, so I decided to force you to separate. But with your big brother here, I think even if something bad happens, you can try to ask him for help. As for whether Roya agrees or not, it's his business."

Rudeus exclaimed, "Five years!!"

The training plan was interrupted early, which made Rudeus a little discouraged and frustrated.

Glancing at Rudeus, Roya said unhappily, "What's that expression on your face? We are going to learn swordsmanship from Gilenu. You should be more restrained. You always think about indecent things."

Rudeus sighed, forced to accept the bleak reality, but then he seemed to have thought of something, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Roya with expectation. He slowly said: "Brother, you are the best to me, you will help me?"

My question, I will read it again next time and correct the typos.

Sorry, dear readers.

Chapter 45 Paul's Letter

Luo Ya was disdainful. Didn't he know how he treated him? He was so shameless as to say such things.

Luo Yaman said quietly, "Don't look at me. I have no other options. Educating children is a very troublesome matter."

Rudeus wailed, he could already see his bleak future.

I don't know if my tutoring mission will be successful, Sylphy won't be able to see him for a while, and now I can't even send him a letter.

However, if we calm down and think about it, Paul's argument does make sense.

If Sylphy continues to grow up in this state, she might become the childhood sweetheart character that appears in the old-fashioned 18+ games. That is, the kind of character that always follows the protagonist closely, becomes a satellite that revolves around the protagonist as if the protagonist is the center of the world, and lacks self-personality.

If this were the real world, her over-dependence would have been gradually resolved as she interacted with friends and studied at school, but Sylphy couldn't make friends because of her hair color.

Even after another five years, she would most likely still be clinging to Rudeus.

Although Rudeus didn't care about the situation, the adults around him didn't seem to think so.

After thinking this through, Rudeus could only sigh. He could understand it, but it was still too difficult for him to accept it.

Gilenu and Luoya were watching the fun nearby. Gilenu suddenly asked, "What's wrong, Rudeus? Did you break up with your lover?"

Rudeus sighed and said, "Paul just kicked me out of the house."

Rudeus continued reading the letter, "As for your compensation, you will receive two Asura silver coins every month. Although this amount is lower than the market price of a tutor, it is a lot for a child's pocket money. You must find time to go to the town to learn how to use money. Because if you don't try to spend it normally, you won't know how to use it properly when you encounter an emergency. However, I feel that my excellent son should be able to spend money well even if he doesn't learn...ah, no matter what, you can't use it to buy women."

Roya narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at Rudeus, both revealing an inexplicable smile.

"Tsk." Gileno looked at the expressions of the two men and knew what they were thinking without them saying anything.

Also, it turns out that Roya is this kind of person.

I was really deceived by his appearance.

Should we say that he is worthy of being Paul’s offspring?

"If you can persevere for five years and properly teach the young lady reading, writing, arithmetic, and magic, then the contract states that the other party will pay the equivalent of three people's magic university tuition as a special reward."

Rudeus continued, "However, Sylphy may not be willing to follow you in five years. You may also change your mind because your feelings have cooled. So we will communicate with Sylphy properly."

When seeing this paragraph, Rudeus felt sick. What does it mean that you should communicate properly? But no matter what, things have already happened. His eyes moved down again and stopped at the very end. Rudeus took a look at it and did not read it out this time because it was nonsense.

[I hope that in these five years, you can stay in a brand new environment, learn a wide variety of knowledge, and achieve a leap forward. Written by Paul, an intellectual and overly great father.]

Rudeus didn't want to say this self-boasting statement.

He put the envelope away and handed it to Gilenu, who waved his hand and said, "Just read it aloud. You can keep this letter."

Rudeus turned his gaze towards Roja, his eyes seemed to be asking the boy whether he wanted the letter.

Luo Ya curled his lips and waved his hand. He didn't want Paul's scumbag letter.

Rudeus had no choice but to put the letter in his arms. He actually didn't really want to hold the letter.

We can see how bad Paul's reputation is from here.

After a brief moment of contemplation, he turned his gaze to Luo Ya and said, "No, brother, you seem to have nothing to do. You just learn sword skills from Gilenu every day."

Luo Ya said lazily: "You also said that I have to learn swordsmanship from Gilenu every day. How can I say that there is nothing to do? Please, I am very busy and responsible for the rise and fall of the family. If you have any accidents one day, I can still help you with my strong strength."

Rudeus nodded. This reason was well-founded and convincing. No way!

Rudeus said loudly: "Brother, you are too mean. You have taken all the benefits. No, you have to contribute too."

Luo Ya fell into deep thought, and he couldn't help but frowned when he thought of Alice's personality.

She is not an easy person to get along with.

But as Rudeus said, he couldn't just stay at the other person's house and do nothing.

After thinking for a moment, Luo Ya said, "How about this, I will teach for two years. In the first two years when I am here, I will teach Alice magic, and you will teach Alice arithmetic and other things. Is that okay?"

Rudeus wanted to bargain, saying something like "just teaching magic is not enough", but Roja glared at him fiercely, and the idea of ​​bargaining was instantly extinguished.

Rudeus thought about it, considering the pros and cons. His arithmetic skills were definitely good. After all, he traveled from the small island country of Blue Star in his previous life. In this world where there were no multiplication tables, he was definitely a genius, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

As for magic, although he was also very good at it, he was still not as good as Roya. He was also quite good at teaching magic.

But he may not know that what awaits him is a nightmare. Knowledge is something that requires the other party to be willing to learn.

I don’t know whether Alice will learn magic or not, but she definitely won’t want to learn arithmetic.

At least I won't study arithmetic and other things so hard.

As for magic, you can link it with novelty, so that Alice might not be too noisy. As for arithmetic and the like, aren't you making things difficult for our future Lord Rabid Dog?

Because of this, Roja pushed the most difficult task to Rudeus.

Looking at Rudeus with a happy face, he thought he had taken advantage, but in fact, it was not the case. If both magic and arithmetic were taught by the same person, the other party might try to be patient and listen, but if only arithmetic was taught, haha, Rudeus could bear it anyway.

The carriage was moving slowly and steadily. Luo Ya took a short rest in the middle because he was too bored.

It was already dusk when we arrived. The distance between Buena Village and the big city was so great that it would take a day to reach by horse carriage.

Converted into actual time, it is about six or seven hours. It is a bit far, but it is also close.

Chapter 46 Arrival

Gileno woke Roya up coldly, and when he woke up, he found Rudeus smiling inexplicably, which instantly scared Roya of his last bit of sleepiness.

Luo Ya said dissatisfiedly: "Rudeus, what are you laughing at?"

Rudeus suppressed his laughter and murmured, "I really don't know what the other party will think when they see you like this. They will probably think you are a girl, right?"

At this point, Rudeus subconsciously raised his eyebrows.

A blonde, cold and arrogant girl like Luo Ya would be knocked unconscious and sold for gold coins if she went out.

Although the prerequisite is to be able to stun.

Facing Rudeus' malicious gaze, Roya snorted disdainfully, exerted a little force on his right arm, and his originally well-proportioned biceps bulged. Roya curled his lips and said, "If you have the strength, you might as well give it a try."

Rudeus swallowed, his expression a little unnatural.

I thought about the time when I was taught a lesson by Luo Ya in the past.

"Let's go, stop chatting there." Gilenu's cold voice came.

This town is worthy of being the largest city in the vicinity and is full of vitality.

The first thing that comes into view is the city wall.

The city was surrounded by a sturdy-looking wall that was about seven to eight meters high.

There are carriages coming and going around the huge city gate on the city wall. After entering the city gate, you can see a whole row of open-air vendors.

Not far after entering the town, there are several shops similar to stables and inns.

It really feels "fantasy" to see people in armor coming and going among ordinary townspeople and merchants.

A strong smell of a Western otherworldly world hits you in the face.

At this time, a middle-aged man who was setting up a stall saw the group of people and said enthusiastically: "Miss, would you like an apple?"

Luo Ya, who was walking in front, sighed helplessly. He said to the middle-aged man with a serious face: "You should say, 'Brother, do you want an apple?'"

When he said this, Luo Ya couldn't help but twitch his lips. Why did this sound so familiar to him? He was not Natsuki Subaru who didn't want to reveal his name.

At this time, Rudeus suddenly noticed that there were people carrying large luggage sitting in a place similar to a bus stop.

"Gillenu, do you know what that is?" Rudeus asked curiously.

"...I'm talking to you..." Hearing Rudeus' question, Gileno showed an unhappy expression.

"Do you look down on me?"

Rudeus was startled by Gilenu's fierce glare.

He hurriedly explained: "No. I just don't know what it is, so I want to trouble you to tell me..."

Gilenu tilted his head and said, "Oh, sorry, is that what you mean?"

Since there are too many points to complain about, Luo Ya will not complain about them anymore.

He had already figured out Gileno's personality. She looked scary, but was actually very kind, and even innocent in some ways.

Although the term "natural" is usually used to describe cute and silly girls, rather than to describe big guys.

But she is indeed a natural fool.

Seeing Rudeus's expression of about to cry, Gilenu quickly replied: "That is the waiting area for public carriages. Generally speaking, when moving from one town to another, you will use that kind of carriage, or pay some money to the merchants in exchange for the opportunity to hitchhike."

Afterwards, it was clear that both of them were rookies who had just left the Novice Village. Gileno pointed at the shops one by one and told them which one was a weapon shop, which one was a tavern, which one was the branch of the Adventurer's Guild, and which one was "that" suspicious shop.
