Chapter 44: Feeling human

✓Feel being human

Sour and sweet, and more importantly, a distinctive aroma.

"Is this alcohol?" (Mari)

“Eh? Is that not good? The one here is delicious, right?” (Rifreya)

"Yes, it does, but .. yes ..." (Mari)

No, that doesn't mean I'm going to refuse alcohol at the moment, but... Is that all right?

Now that I'm in this world, I guess I should follow the rules here?

I tried to take one more sip.

It tastes sweet and easy to drink.

I don't think it's a strong drink.

First of all, I've never had a drink before, so I don't know exactly…

“Uhm... Last time, I didn't get to ask your name correctly. Can you tell me your name …? ” (Rifreya)

“Hikaru. Kurose Hikaru.” (Mari)

Eh? Would it be better not to tell him my name?

…No, it's okay to tell her that much.

“Hikaru... That's a nice name.” (Rifreya)

"Thul? It's a feminine name, so I don't like it very much.” (Mari)

My physique wasn't very good and I was slim, so I didn't like my childish name.

Well, it's better than being named after a car like my sister.

“You're not from around here, are you, Hikaru? I am from Siltion.. Ah, it might be better to say Church of Great Light.” (Rifreya)

akh did not know at all, but most likely it was a place where they worshipped the Great Spirit of Light.

"So, that's why you used the Spirit Ability of Light." (Mari)

"It's too late. I want you to know, regardless of my appearance, I'm a Templar Disciple. ” (Rifreya)

He pushed his chest proudly and said 'hmhm', but I don't know if it's impressive or not.

"You are an apprentice despite being that strong?" (Mari)

“Yes, you should either with Spirit Ability or in the templar exam you will only ..” (Rifreya)

They were knights protecting the Great Light Church, so perhaps everyone should be able to use the Light Spirit Ability.

Then, I might be able to become the Templar of Darkness?.

No, if it's darkness, it's not a church? So maybe a knight of darkness.

Fufu.

"Wait, why are you laughing? It's true that I'm a bit old to still be an apprentice, and it's true that if I don't pass the templar exam, I won't have a future! (Rifreya)

"Ah sorry. I'm not really laughing at you. I was thinking of something else.” (Mari)

My head feels comfortable and light.

Things about the Earth, gazes, laughter; I was not bothered by any of it.

Is it because I am with someone who is like the personification of light?

Is it because someone like that told me that he likes me?

After a while, the dishes were brought.

The meat! Vegetables! Bread! All on a big plate!

Everything looked as if it was in the oven, and its fragrant smell stimulated my appetite.

“Impressive number. That does look good. ” (Hikaru)

“Eh~? Didn't you eat quite a lot as well, Hikaru? Your level is high, right?” (Rifreya)

“What is a level?” (Mari)

“Why don't you know? You are one big mystery, Hikaru. Despite being a Dark Spirit User alone is rare.” (Rifreya)

According to what he said as I chewed on vegetables and meat, Level is the level of reinforcement you get from defeating monsters and taking their Spirit Energy.

“Something like a level, then? In that case, I'm really low. I have almost no experience defeating monsters.” (Mari)

“I don't know what level you mentioned this, but it's a lie that you have a low level.you killed that grasshopper in an instant.I was moved by that, you know? ” (Rifreya)

“That's because you weakened it. I was also lucky.” (Mari)

“You can't beat a grasshopper with luck. It's a lot stronger than an ogre, you know? It was a monster that usually appeared on the 4.” Floor (Rifreya)

“Then, I have a good interest in him.” (Mari)

As expected of the recommended dishes, everything was delicious.

The fruit sauce is sweet and sour and the meat of something is juicy. The vegetables are also scented.

My sister said 'the parallel world doesn't have selectively bred food, so no doubt it's full of food that tastes bad - not including seafood', no doubt', but that doesn't seem to be the case.

“...It's been a long time since I could eat something worthy of this.” (Mari)

"Thul? It's not an expensive place, you know?” (Rifreya)

“Partially because I don't have money, but.I'm alone. Yes, eat with others...I haven't done that since coming here.” (Mari)

Eat with someone.

It was given when I was in Japan.

My sister was always arguing about difficult and noisy topics.

My mother and father were not often at home, but there were times when Nanami came to our house to eat with us.

My food has always been alone since I came here.

There was no one to talk to casually.

The gaze from the Earth was filled with hostility, and I was always laughed at.

Rifreya, who was sitting opposite me and her cheeks slightly flushed red most likely due to the alcohol, smiled gently and tilted her head.

His gaze that I could not feel the slightest bit of hostility, and instead felt a deep affection…

“T-Wait, Hikaru?! Why are you crying?! E-Eh?” (Rifreya)

“Crying? Ah sorry. Thas right. Haha, I wonder why. ” (Hikaru)

Unknowingly I started crying.

Crying like this in front of people I barely knew... I feel pathetic.

But the tears were flowing, and they didn't listen to me.

"sorry. It's really been a long time since I've eaten with someone. The food is also good. It was strange coming from me wanting to escape at first. ” (Hikaru)

“Eh, yes, I don't really mind that much.. After all, I am the one who was saved.. I'm glad to see that this has brought you that much happiness.” (Rifreya)

“At first, I thought a gift wasn't needed, but.. thanks. I'm happy." (Mari)

A smile emanated from my face.

I felt as comfortable as I was in Japan.

“A-Ahaha. This place is kind of hot, isn't it?” (Rifreya)

Rifreya fanned his face with his hands.

It's really kind of hot. Is it because I drink alcohol?

After that, we continued our conversation while eating.

The drink was good, and I ended up drinking a few more glasses.

It was a time that really made me feel as if I was back to being human.

By the time we left the place, the night curtain had already descended, and the people around had started to sparse.

I was usually in the dungeob around this time, but I felt light and kind. I think I'm drunk.

I see, I kind of understand why adults like to drink alcohol.

It makes me forget the bad things and have fun.

“Then, Rifreya, I doubt we will meet again, but I am really happy today. A templar, isn't it? Do your best in the exam.” (Mari)

I bid farewell to Rifreya and started walking.

I don't think I'll be able to eat with such beauty anymore.

He said he loved someone like me.

Even if I save her suddenly, once we part here, I will still remember this forever.

My days of diving into the dark dungeon will start again tomorrow, but I make good memories here.

“T-Wait wait, Hikaru. I'm not done thanking you. Or rather, start here. From now on, from now on.” (Rifreya)

He pulled my hand and I almost fell forward.

When I looked back, I saw that he was smiling awkwardly, all drunk as if he was drunk, but also as if he was forcing himself not to be nervous.

He seemed to be very drunk, he was red to his ears.

“I've received quite a lot. I can't accept anymore.” (Mari)

“No, no, the family teaching of my Ashbird household is 'Always return the favor'. It's impossible to eat alone would be enough to pay you for saving my life. ” (Rifreya)

"Even if you tell me that ..." (Mari)

As we talked about this, he still forcefully pulled my hand, and tried to take me somewhere.

For a moment there, the thought of him lowering my guard with food and then handing me over to the authorities crossed my mind...but I feel like I don't mind whatever's going on here with him.

However, the place he took me to was a place beyond my expectations.
