Episode 6

I was walking the streets at night, enjoying the streets of Japan for the first time in a long time.

There were countries in other worlds that had developed science and technology, such as the country where Ferris was from.

But, well, …… after all, there are many differences between other worlds and Earth.

The time is still twenty o’clock, even if it is still night time in the city. At this time, people are going into pubs and other places, and groups of people who seem to have had an early drinking party are coming out of the shops.

…… As might be expected, drinking is not a good idea for this sixteen-year-old body.

Well, I think it is possible to magically convert the alcohol component into something that is not harmful to the body, but in the meantime, it would be better not to drink it.

I mean, I was made to work late at night as a matter of course at my age, but that itself is illegal as a matter of course, I’m sure.

I was really ignorant back then. ……

…When I walk down the street at night, I’m never suddenly attacked by strange guys, and I never encounter bandits or anything like that.

Even if you’re passed out drunk here and there, you’re hardly ever stripped of your clothes…it’s really peaceful, isn’t it?

I wonder what I’m going to do now.

It’s as if I’m being told to get on with my life. …… What shall I do? What, do I want to do?

If I use my power, I could do anything I want, as much as I want.

That’s what I wanted to be when I was little, a professional baseball player or a professional football player, and if I wanted to aim for it, I could get used to those with plenty of time to spare.

If I wanted to make a lot of money, I could do as much as I wanted. If I use the power to create gold that I acquired at the gates of the magical world and the power to completely heal other people’s wounds, I can make as much money as I want, although there may be some trouble in the details.

“But nothing fancy.”

I don’t want to stand out, I don’t want to be a millionaire.

I’m just trying to figure out what I want to do now.

……Previous life……, or rather, what I couldn’t do before I went back in time, is a normal life.

In particular, high school, which many sixteen year olds will attend…… high school.

And I wanted to go there.

The high school life I was supposed to lead was destroyed by my parents.

It was because my parents had borrowed money from the black market and other dangerous places.

If I had been more knowledgeable at that time, I would have known that I had no obligation to pay. ……

But I didn’t know anything about it.

I desperately paid back my parents’ debts, but of course that didn’t get me back to the high school life I lost. ……

…… high school. And I want to attend university.

High school was often the setting in manga, ranovels and anime. I used to envy those worlds where everyone was enjoying their youth.

I want to live a normal life like that.

Eh? I’m a shady person, so it’s impossible for me to go to high school, isn’t it? I’m the one who’s going to encourage myself to go to high school, but I’m being too loud, idiot.

I don’t care if it was a long time ago, I have a lot of life experience now. I’m sure I’ll be popular for my otherworldly jokes.　

I think I’ve got a policy in place.

For now, the goal is to get a date in uniform.

Let’s try to regain our lost youth now, shall we?

I can memorise things in an instant, so I won’t struggle with my studies.

For the time being, let’s take it easy this year and earn money, and maybe take an exam next year?

Or maybe a transfer exam ……?

…… For now, I have to go back to the me when I was sixteen.

When I was sixteen, I was …… more like this, fresh and excited.

I’m gradually remembering. If you were to treat me as I was at my real age, you would probably say, ‘Aren’t you getting old?’

Let’s try to stay young.

As much as possible, be cheerful and bright.

Fortunately, I was travelling with a relatively young group of heroes, so I have a vague idea of what young people are like.

I was thinking about this when I was walking through the city at night.

…… I heard a voice calling for help.

…… Apparently, one of the powers I had acquired at the gates of the demon world had reacted.

I could sense the air of someone in trouble from nearby, and I started walking towards it, as I didn’t feel good about leaving it alone.

As I was walking towards her

I spotted a girl who was about to be taken into a car.

Her chestnut-coloured hair is shaking as she reaches out to me, as if desperately seeking help,

Her appealing teary eyes are directed towards me. Her mouth is held shut and she can’t seem to speak, but her eyes are pleading with me to help her.

“…… Hey! he saw us!”

“What?! Take him away too, ……!”

The kidnappers notice me and approach me in a panic.

The second battle since I returned to Japan?

Japan may be more dangerous than I think.

The kidnappers were wearing balaclavas and clothes that could be sold anywhere.

In their hands, they held knives and iron pipes.

They must have been tools procured for the kidnapping, including …… this car.

“Hey, you, don’t go off!”

“…… No, that girl over there. Let her go, she’s scared.”

“Shut up! Shut up! You try any more of this and you’re gonna get a free pass!”

“……, okay. Well, then…”

I kick the ground and instantly close in on the man who had the girl.

Then I slam my fist into his face.

“Guhaa!!!?”

Oh, no. I added and subtracted, but my fist was considerably reduced.

Earth man, you might be absurdly weak.

The head bone is completely destroyed, so I immediately use recovery magic on that side and fool it so that it doesn’t become a fatal wound.

Is it safe for now, ……?
