In the place where the damned female officer had been sitting until about ten minutes ago, I found a sky-blue police uniform, a plain-colored underwear–and a communication device, a baton, and a pistol.
I pick them all up and place them in the basement of the fruit stand.
If the police come to my house and find these tools in my house, I am a criminal.
But this basement belongs to the fruit store owner. I don’t know if the other people besides the fruit vendor and the big guy are in the house, but I don’t feel safe leaving guns and other items here.
For now, I think it will be okay if I re-cover the passage with carpet, remove the door handle by transferring it, fix the edge of the door with a bond, and fasten it from the back with wood and nails.
However, I’m not comfortable using the house where people died as a base.
After all, I would like to have a new base in another world.
Then, how and where?
How can I buy a base in another world with no ID or anything? Even if I could, that town is the home of Limona and her royal family. I don’t want my house to be raided while I’m gone, and I don’t want them to take my guns and stuff without my permission.
No, I don’t need a gun or a baton, since I have the ability to transfer.
When I flew the female officer naked onto the main street, I was so excited by the exhilaration that could be called a reaction to my frustration that I said to myself, [I’ve got it ! I got my police gear !] I was inwardly happy.
However, when I looked back on it calmly, I realized that not only was it more useless than I had imagined, but it was also the worst thing I could have gotten my hands on that would be extremely unpleasant if someone found it or stole it.
For now, let’s seal the entrance to the basement.
After sealing the entrance with bond and wood, we used the transfer gate to throw sandbags at the stairs. The sandbags are from the school’s gym storage, but I haven’t seen them used since I started school, and this is a school that turned a blind eye to the assaults and vandalism against me. Even for theft, they would turn a blind eye to this.
Eifuran High School is not a very safe place to begin with, and school equipment is stolen on a daily basis, and since I’m on the move, they will never know I stole it.
I returned home, having completely filled the basement stairs with sandbags from the school.
I’m exhausted today. Even though it was just to carry the sandbags to the gate, I’m sure I’ll have sore muscles tomorrow.
But for that reason, I’ve come to trust that basement as a storage space.
It is impossible to pull open the door without a handle, and even if I tried to push it open, it would be impossible because it is packed with sandbags. Not many people would try to find the hidden passageway in the first place, and even fewer would try desperately to open a door that would not open if they did find it.
However, this is also a stopgap measure. I still need a secure base.
But not right away. Fortunately, I still have 5 gold coins that the princess gave me that I haven’t redeemed, and I have a large amount of copper coins and a few silver coins in the basement.
I’ll just have to take my time and look for the best part.
……Today I experienced combat for the first time in another world, saw people die, had a row with a female officer, carried sandbags, and so on. I’m tired from all the things I’ve done, so I’m going to do some light studying and then go to bed.

The next day. Today is Saturday, so school is normally closed.
On TV, there was a story about a mysterious crazy woman who suddenly appeared on the main street.
The lack of major incidents recently, coupled with the impact of a former police officer, has led a comedian, who has long since stopped doing comedy, to offer a flimsy theory about how the police are crazy.
Apparently, the female officer has been dismissed from her position and will be subjected to a psychiatric evaluation.
I guess no one believed her when she told them about my transfer skill. Just like she didn’t believe me when I said I was summoned to another world and only I came back.
That’s a good feeling.
I was so excited to see the interesting news, so I was able to study better today.
But in the afternoon, I started to lose my concentration, so I decided to go to another world.
The place to go is in front of a fruit shop. The dead body that was lying there yesterday is gone, as if someone had retrieved it. However, even though people were said to have died, there were no signs of people gathering.
….I thought there could be military police or something.
Well, it’s the kind of security that chases people as they walk by. I guess this kind of death is an everyday occurrence in this country.
I walked through the streets with an open mind. I have only one gold coin, two silver coins, and five copper coins.
I did not know the value of money in this country, so I took what I thought was appropriate. I also have about 15 ten-yen coins in my opposite pocket. The problem is that they jingle around when I walk.
My destination was the so-called [Adventurers’ Guild.]
I don’t know if adventurers exist in this world, and I don’t know if there is an association for them. However, I knew that other worlds and summoning of heroes did exist. It would not be surprising if there was at least a guild.
“Excuse me. I’m looking for the Adventurers’ Guild……”
I asked a friendly-looking woman on the street, and the Adventurers’ Guild was easily found.
Inside the two-story building, which had the exterior of a large bar, was a bar just like the exterior. Even though it was daytime, the place was crowded with large men, and the noise was as loud as a banquet.
A quick glance to the side reveals miscellaneous flyers posted all over the place, and a reception desk that looks like a government office, which is somewhat out of place in such a bar.
The woman at the reception desk was clean and beautiful, which didn’t suit this tavern.
“Welcome to the Adventurers’ Guild. Are you here to accept requests? Or are you registering?”
“Registration. I…..I want to become an adventurer.”
There are two main reasons why I want to become an adventurer. One is because I want an ID.
If you need an ID to register, it’s a dead end, but it’s such an insecure country. Not everyone has an ID, and I know there are places where I can get by without one.
And in fantasy novels, it is standard practice to register with the Adventurers’ Guild without ID.
The other reason is that I want to have an adventure.
My ability to transfer coins is enough to defeat most opponents, and it is easy to avoid or prevent attacks with my transferring ability. And above all, I can escape from any dangerous situation at worst. This is the most important thing.
It will be exhilarating to beat up demons and bad guys, and it will also be a perfect break from studying.
“I understand. Registration. Do you have an ID?”
Eh, checkmate?
“U-um……I don’t have that.”
“I see. Then the registration fee will be two silver coins.”
I quickly offered the two silver coins.
The receptionist’s eyes widened in surprise.
“I-I understand. Then I will register you with these coins. Please fill in your name and available skills on this paper. …..Can you write?
“Maybe.”
The letters on the flier from a distance look Japanese, and the language is understandable. If you are okay with Japanese, there is no problem.
I write my name and the name of my ability on the form.
Oh, I have to write the rank of stars in the ability section. If so, I write 7 stars.
The receptionist’s eyes narrowed as I handed her the form I had written.
“Well, we need you to write down your abilities honestly…….”
“Yes. I’m being honest, okay?”
“Um….the highest ranked skill in history is 5 stars, and even that can only be obtained by a brave warrior summoned from another world. Even 3 stars is high enough. If you’re going to tell a lie, tell a better one.”
“No, I’m telling the truth !”
Why don’t the female officer and the receptionist believe me?
I didn’t lie at all.
After a few moments of staring at the receptionist, a large hand lands on my shoulder. I turn around to see a large, stout man, who looks to be over two meters tall, smiling at me.
“Oh, mister. Don’t embarrass Rhys san with your stupid lies, okay?”
“…..I’m not lying.”
“That’s so. So, would you like to try a match with me? My skill rank is 3 stars. It’s quite high in this guild, but if mister is 7 stars, it’ll be easy enough to beat me, right?”
The big man said as if he was trying to provoke me while putting his hand on the big ax he carried on his back.
To be honest, I don’t feel like losing to this type of guy, so it might be a good idea to beat him up while practicing my skills.
