Volume 6, Chapter 11: You’re not working, are you? (2/8)

“Hey. Isn’t this too extravagant?”

When Tomochika was shown to her room, she was overwhelmed by the grandeur of the special class cabin.

The room was spacious with plenty of room to spare, and the furnishings showed that even to the untrained eye, the utmost in luxury had been applied.

Moreover, there were several such rooms in a row without any particular use.

It was a luxurious space that would make a commoner like Tomochika shy away from it.

“It’s okay. We have money. If we’re too stingy, the environment might become unbearable for those of us who have become accustomed to modern civilization.”

Yogiri didn’t seem to have any particular thoughts about the luxury of the room.

He was not able to tell what Mokomoko was thinking because she didn’t even bother to control her expression.

She was moving so that she was overlapping with Enju. It was like she was possessing her.

In this state, it seemed to be able to move more naturally, while remote controlling it increases the gap.

“That’s true, but are you sure about the money? I feel like we’ve spent a lot of money so far.”

“It’s increasing. It’s fine.”

“Why? You don’t work, do you?”

“I’ve got a concierge who manages my money and it’s going really well.”

“Oh, that’s what you were talking about, but how do you know that?”

“Sometimes pigeons fly in and report back to us.”

The main means of long-distance communication in this world is the carrier pigeon.

There were various means of communication, but the pigeon, a magical creature, was often used because it could be used anywhere and was reliable.

“But now that you know you have more money, how do you spend it?”

“You can pay with pigeons. You can encrypt the information and instruct the bank to make the transaction.”

Pigeons are so useful!“

Tomochika didn’t know much about the financial system of this world, but it seemed that pigeons were at the heart of it.

“Well, it’s Hanakawa’s money, so we should thank him.”

“No, I think it’s too late for him to thank him.”

They couldn’t just stand there at the entrance forever, so they went into the room.

As soon as they entered, they found themselves in the living room.

Yogiri and Tomochika put down their luggage and sat down on the sofa.

“They say we’ll be there in about a week, if everything goes well.”

“If everything goes well…”

“Well, if something goes wrong, the youngster will take care of it.”

“No, I’m not invincible. It’s a nuisance on a ship.”

“Oh, really?“

What is this guy talking about now? Tomochika looked at Yogiri with such eyes.

“I can’t do anything about it if the ship suddenly sinks due to some kind of trouble.”

“That’s the way it is? What about the usual predictions for killing Intent?”

“It’s hard to deal with a crisis that isn’t aimed at me, but one that changes the environment itself.”

In the first place, Yogiri had been transferred to another world, and in the demon world, he fell off a cliff.

It wasn’t possible to detect all crises.

If that’s the case, we shouldn’t be taking an elegant boat trips!“

“Well, the worst that can happen is that we can make a ship out of Furemaru. We don’t have to worry too much about that, do we?”

Mokomoko said.

“Hmm? That’s the thing you got from Robo, right? Is that what it’s called?”

It was probably a mysterious substance, given to them by an invading robot, that usually mimics a piece of clothing.

The shape could be set at will, and it could also be used as a weapon, armor, or wings.

It was quite a useful tool.

“Hmm. Without a name, it’s hard to get comfortable. It’s not like I can just call it the robot thing every time.”

“Is there a reason for that name?”

What’s Maru? That was a common name for Japanese swords. Tomochika thought it was a name unique to the Heian era born Mokomoko.

“It stands for flexible materials.”

“I didn’t know any of this was going on!”

“Well, let’s just hope nothing happens to the ship.”

With that, Yogiri got up and headed for the bedroom in the back.

“It’s still daytime, are you going to bed?”

“There’s nothing to do. What about you, Dannoura-san?”

“I don’t know. I think I’ll go take a look around the ship.”

Even though it was a luxurious room, being cooped up in it was just boring. Tomochika thought that it would not be a bad idea to take a look at the ship that would be taking care of her for the next while.

“Youngster”

Mokomoko threw something lightly, and Yogiri took it.

“What’s this?”

“It’s part of Furemaru. If something happens, I’ll call you with it. There’s less lag than with a phone.”

“All right. Let me know if anyone tries to harm Dannoura-san.”

“If you could do that, why didn’t you do it before?”

“Split control of Furemaru is quite difficult and I have only recently been able to do so.”

She had been able to handle the hardened Furemaru as flying tools, but she had not been able to control them after they were separated.

She said that it was now possible to control it even after it had been separated, if only slightly.

“You’re asleep fast!”

While Tomochika was listening to Mokomoko’s commentary, Yogiri had begun to breathe in his sleep.

*****

At the end of the deck there was a lifeboat.

They looked sturdy and would be useful in case of emergency, but there were fewer of them than she had expected.

“You can’t fit everyone on this thing. ……”

“You know the one on that ship that hit the iceberg wasn’t even close?”

“Don’t worry about the first class passengers, they’ll all fit in the first class cabin.”

A passing sailor told her so and left.

It was no surprise that the sailor remembered her face.

“Oh! The poor would die…”

“I’m sure second class is still quite expensive.”

Tomochika and Mokomoko wandered around the ship.

The reason why she was doing this is because it is easier for them to talk naturally.

She did this because it might seem unnatural to talk to an invisible person.

“There’s so much here, I think I can manage for a week or so.”

Gym, tennis courts, swimming pool, bathhouse, casino, fine restaurants, concert hall.

There were plenty of things to do on board to pass the time.

“So, what do we do? Are we still going by boat?” (mokomoko)

There was still time since the ship would leave in the evening and they could still cancel.

“You know… I have a bad feeling about this. I don’t think there are any icebergs, though.”

The icebergs were in the far northern ocean, so it was unlikely that we would encounter them on this voyage.

“There are some suspicious people on board, but I’m sure the boy can handle them if they try anything.”

“In the first place. I’ve been thinking if we really need to defeat the Sage and collecting the Philosopher’s Stone for a while now”

“Hmm. But that’s the method that has the best chance of getting us home so far, right?”

“Hmm. It has been causing so much trouble for the people of this world. I don’t know if I have to go that far to return, I think.“

Of course, Tomochika would like to go home if she could.

However, it would involve a lot of sacrifices. If the Sages die, there would be less and less strength to protect this world from foreign enemies. Sooner or later, the world will not be able to cope with the invaders and will be on the verge of destruction.

Sages were not good people. They didn’t care about people and could easily kill a lot of them. However, they were still better than the invaders.

Necessary evil was exactly what they are, and no matter how bad they were, they are necessary in this world.

However, Yogiri was determined to return home even if it meant destroying this world.

Tomochika, however, was not prepared to go that far.

If she had to go that far, she might as well give up on returning home.

“You know, Hanakawa-kun called us a pair of psychopaths before, right? I thought it would be a good idea for the two of us to go ahead and kill everything together.”

To survive in this world, you needed to be prepared.

However, Tomochika thought that this was not the same as abandoning everything and feeling nothing.

“But it doesn’t mean that trying to return is directly related to the damage to this world. You may be able to get the Philosopher’s Stone without defeating the Sage, and the number of Philosopher’s Stones we need may not be that great. And it seems that the Koryuu knows something about how to return.”

“I don’t think it’s going to go smoothly anyway.“

Well, if you don’t want to go home, that’s fine.”

“What!?”

“I am here to protect the clan of Dannoura, to ensure the prosperity of my descendants, and for that purpose I am protecting you. Then I suppose it doesn’t matter where you are. Although I think it would be easier for us to prosper if we could return home.”

“Well, if I’m going to live here, I’ll have to think about it, I suppose.”

“I don’t think it’s too much trouble. Many people come from Japan, so the Japanese language is reasonably well spoken, and if you choose the right place, it’s not inconvenient to be a modern Japanese.”

It’s a little late for that. The fact that the Japanese language is so popular means that a lot of people come from Japan, right?”

“I don’t know why, but I guess that’s the way it is. Maybe there’s something unique about Japan. “

“No, that’s not the point. I don’t know if I can live in this world with Japanese people.”

It’s not that she was giving up on returning home right now.

However, Tomochika was beginning to think that living in this world was an option.
