The Long Journey Until I Reunite With You

Death. Rebirth. Another World. Is This Fantasy? What DoI Do Now?

I remembered myself as AsakuraRyuuma, but that was around the time I was celebrating my eighth birthday as 『Velt Jeeha』. Since then, it’s been two years.I became a ten year old and nothing has changed, I haven’t gotten anywhere. Everyonce in awhile, when there’s nothing to do, tears spontaneously come out of my eyes.

「Velt, what’s wrong? The otherday you were also crying on your birthday weren’t you?」 (????)

Honestly, I didn’t understandmyself. Am I Velt Jeeha or Asakura Ryuuma? Have I been born again as Velt Jeeha,and am living with the memories of Asakura Ryuuma? It’s just, even though the parentsI share blood with are there, nowadays they are looking at someone else.

「Mother.」 (Asakura→ Velt)

「Did you see a bad dream?」 (Mother)

Aruna Jeeha. 26 years old. Theone that gave birth to me, Velt Jeeha’s mother. A beautiful girl with matching redhair, famous among the nearby commoners. She was a doting parent that spoiled meto the extreme in my rebellious age.

「Hahaha, Velt is really cute isn’the? Then, want to sleep with mama and papa today?」 (Man)

Similarly, there was my dotingfather, Bonapa Jeeha. 29 years old. With short blond hair, he was solidly builtwith an expression accustomed to hard labor, though when he has his wife and childin his sights, he becomes sweet.

(TN: Deredere/デレデレ was replacedby sweet, go google it.)

「Since I don’t sleep well withyou, I’ll sleep by myself. It’s annoying.」 (Velt)

「Ooooh, mama～ Velt’s becomingan adult now～」 (Man → Bonapa)

「But, calling mama and papa annoying,punishment punches! Bad! Bad! Bad!」 (Mother → Aruna)

Velt Jeeha, 10 years old. that’smy current ident.i.ty. I inherited my mother’s red hair, but since I had a rebelliousand cheeky look in my eyes, I wasn’t cute. However, on the contrary my parents disregardedthat about me and dotingly fawned on me. Even till now I resisted, but that feelingwas growing stronger. When I was Asakura Ryuuma, my parents had basically disinheritedme, so I didn’t know anything like familial love. Because of that, I was somewhatuncomfortable.

「Listen up～ Velt. Inyesterday’s cla.s.s at school, I heard you did something during the levitation practicetest.」 (Bonapa)

「Oh, I haven’t heard of this?」 (Aruna)

「I was working in the fields, whenthe teacher came over crying. The subject was using levitation to move a jar fromone side to another, and it seems you violently threw it!」 (Bonapa)

Aah, something like that did happendidn’t it. That’s because I can’t use anything like magic.

「Wow! If you couldn’t do it you’drun, but you found a way to do it on your own, how great!」 (Aruna)

「You think so too right mama? Whatan exciting way to do it, papa is happy!」 (Bonapa)

This area was surrounded by wheatfields as it was an agricultural zone. There were no such things as electricity,cars, or convenience stores. The main mode of transport was a horse. The neighborhoodwas separated into intervals and each household had several buildings.

However, it couldn’t be consideredthe countryside. You would be able to reach Elfashia Kingdom’s royal capital inabout 30 minutes. I constantly go back and forth, as 『Elfashia’s Magic School for Children』 is in thecity.

The capital city has several millionpeople. The basic necessities of life were satisfied, the technological and magicalcultures were developing, and there was little crime. It was a peaceful kingdom.However, even then, this world was vastly different compared to Asakura Ryuuma’sworld

「A fantasy world, is it. It’s nowonder I haven’t adjusted to this world.」 (Velt)

I died, then was reborn in thismedieval-like fantasy world with a new life. I don’t know if it’s right or wrong,but this is the best answer I could come up with.

「You haven’t gotten used to it?What’s wrong, Velt? Don’t tell me you’re being bullied at school! Unforgivable!Which n.o.ble’s kid is it? Papa will beat them up!」 (Bonapa)

「Eeeh? Velt～ If it’s painfulyou can tell mama anytime you know? Even though I can’t use magic, mama will protectVelt. With my mama-punch, take this, and that!」 (Aruna)

At any rate, I’m always thinking,are these people okay with this?  When I wasAsakura Ryuuma, my parents were annoying, but isn’t this unpleasant? I’ve been ratherspoiled, and I haven’t taken advantage of my parents. That is, with Asakura Ryuuma’send, my blood-related parents don"t think of me as a stranger.

No, not just my parents, everyonethat I’ve met in this world say the same thing. n.o.body knows my true self. In thisworld, nothing was normal for me, and because of that, I feel uncomfortable.

「But, Velt, if you’re actuallybeing bullied, tell us, okay?」 (Bonpa)

「I won’t. Instead, let me cry.Or rather, Your son to this day can’t even use basic magic,

I’ll get failing grades and beright on the path heading towards being a dropout in school! If it’s dad, then he’llget angry and hit me!」 (Velt)

「Hahaha, What are you saying? Papadoesn’t think you’re someone who can’t keep up in school. As long as you’re thereand full of energy, papa will think of it as a perfect score.」 (Aruna)

「That’s what I mean, if you spoilthis idiot son, then I’ll go down the wrong path! As a test try to get mad at me!Come on!」 (Velt)

「I-I see～. It can’t be helped～ then......Bad!」 (Bonapa)

「......Mother, I’m hungry. Hurryand make food for me.」 (Velt)

Good grief, how far are my parentsgoing to dote on me. I disregarded my father, who casually opened his newspaperat the table. Nowadays, I could read this world’s characters. Although it doesn’tseem like I’ve adapted to it, I feel like I’ve gotten used to it. As I was thinkinglike that, something on the spread open newspaper caught my eye. There, was a pictureof a very young boy carrying a sword.

「Hmm. A youthful 12 year old herodefeated the Kaiser Commander 『Shis.h.i.ten Ajin』. Ho～ Althoughwe aren’t that different, he’s partic.i.p.ating in a war. Mister obedient huh～」 (Velt)

「Even though you’re ten years old,once in awhile you say something really philosophical like that. You make papa worried.」 (Bonapa)

Although I was given a new lifein another world, there wasn’t anything special about me. In this world there weredifferent species such as demons and demi-humans. And though there were conflictswith humans every day, in this country various groups existed in different territoriesso there wasn’t anything in particular like an open war.

Most of all, there were the existencesof heroes.

Once again, I myself didn’t haveany special ability, nor did I have a gift for magic. With regards to my previouslife’s knowledge, for a delinquent with no common sense there was no use for thatsort of c.r.a.p. In other words, there was no sort of G.o.d that gave me some sort ofmission, I was just some farmer’s kid living on through my second life.

Because I realized it when I wasten years old, it was all the more to consider.

For what reason was I given asecond life in this world?

For what reason did I have toremember my life as Asakura Ryuuma?
