Earthlings of another world (1)
‘…how are you here?’
At the completely unexpected meeting, Princess Riley blankly looked up at Heinrich.
Even today, a lot happened.
From the friction with Prince Simon, to the intervention and obstruction of the banshee queen Olivia, to the dramatic escape that was nevertheless successful, and the life crisis faced outside.
But wasn’t it the hero who suddenly appeared and saved the desperate situation?
It was not unusual for her to react this way.
“···ah!”
But her confusion didn’t last too long…
It was because what I had to do right now flashed through my mind rather than arguing about such things.
“Ah, thank you for saving me, saint! By the way, let’s start with this person first…! please!”
Although I was momentarily taken aback by the unexpected encounter, meeting the saint in the present situation was truly a matter of luck.
Aside from being a life saver right now, it was an unmistakable fact that even though he was a warrior who focused on combat rather than healing, he was also a top-notch cleric.
Now that Hesperon’s details are critical, it could be said to be the best cutting edge.
“Of course it should. Leave it to me.”
Of course, even without her words, the righteous saint had no intention of ignoring the wounded in front of him from the beginning.
“Hmm—it’s in a pretty serious condition, but I don’t think there’s anything to worry about as it won’t have a major impact on your life. He is a very strong man.”
“is that so···? I’m glad, really…”
When Heinrich, who started the treatment using the sexual method, vomited a low admiration, Riley, who was watching it with a nervous feeling, let out a sigh of relief.
Finally realizing that all the crisis had passed, she stretched her body as if her tension had been relieved.
Really, it was a very tiring day in many ways.
“Thanks again for the help, my saint. Oh, come to think of it, how do you know we’re here…”
And when she had that much free time, she thought that all the questions hadn’t been answered yet, and she cautiously asked a question.
Isn’t the current meeting too dramatic to dismiss it as just a coincidence?
But before Heinrich could answer him…
uhhh—
Another change has occurred.
Enormous mana condensed in an instant in the nearby air with a vibrating sound.
The tremendous energy that Riley, a low-ranking magician, could not dare to fathom, formed a certain structure in an instant, and soon the space distorted and a group of people appeared from there.
A savage warrior with a gigantic body that immediately catches the attention with his bloody yet overwhelming personality.
A spear knight with a long spear on his shoulder in a gloomy atmosphere.
…and even a little girl among the strangers.
“Saint! Space travel magic isn’t that simple. If you leave first so suddenly…!”
There was a familiar face that I had always wanted to see.
“…Sea?”
“uh?”
As soon as she opened her eyes to concentrate, Seah Lee, who had been grunting at Heinrich, stopped at the voice calling her and slowly turned her head.
There was a short silence as the two looked at each other.
Although she was in a state of tingling after going through a bout of chaos, there was no way she couldn’t recognize the other person.
“… Riley?”
Didn’t you voluntarily participate in the warrior party by pouring all your karma points with only one thought to save the princess who was kidnapped by the Immortal King?
I was determined every day that I would definitely rescue them no matter how many years it took…
Is that object still here?
…why are you here?
As usual, following the guidance of the saint, she visited the capital of the Principality of Rohan and helped the people there, and as she had only followed Heinrich, who had suddenly disappeared, she could not help but be stunned by this sudden encounter.
‘Come to think of it, today the saint was a bit different than usual.’
He did say something meaningful, such as that something happy would happen to her soon, that he would have a good relationship in the future.
Were they double lines?
But it didn’t take long for her to remain silent.
“Unnie Se-ah—!”
Warak—
I was able to clearly feel that the current situation was all reality by seeing Riley rushing over and hugging her… no, holding her in his arms.
Although the title ‘sister’ was a bit unrealistic.
Rather now…
“Smells like that, Riley. away.”
“Eek! That is unfair! Is that what you mean by seeing each other in two months?”
Well, whatever the circumstances, that would be a good thing.
Lee Se-ah smiled and eventually hugged her and patted her.
I decided to think about complicated things later and to fully enjoy the joy of the moment.
It was a bit out of the blue, but wasn’t this the moment when the goal she had hoped for had been achieved?
‘···Oh right. My point.’
Of course, just a little bit… a little bit, it was an unavoidable problem that the karma was wasted.
***
It was a while to have a thrilling reunion time.
Isea soon took them all and moved back to Rohan, the capital of the Principality of Rohan, through space movement.
Heinrich moved in a hurry, so he thought something big had happened and hurriedly followed him, but since the situation was already over, there was no reason to spend any more time here.
“hahahahaha! What an unexpected windfall! These guys are so cautious that they avoid the strong and only target the weak. Because of that, the material is also precious!”
In the meantime, Harley, a barbaric warrior, dismantled the griffin in an instant to collect by-products, but it was not a big deal because that was always the case anyway.
Of course, I still haven’t gotten used to the image of pulling out a heart, chewing and swallowing a magic stone, and grilling and eating the meat of a monster that has been peeled off.
‘It wasn’t using aura or magic, but moving mana and generating heat. Those green eyes, I want to examine them sometime… Shall we tell you when we get closer? . . . It is also related to the past, so it must be rude, right?’
In fact, even with the exception of the eyes, the existence of Harley was of interest to Isea, a natural-born wizard.
‘Yongin’ was an unfamiliar creature even to her, who had access to a lot of magical knowledge with the help of the princess, and later often participated in academic exchanges with the magic towers.
What can I say more if there is even an unknown procedure added to it.
Perhaps, if he hadn’t been as strong as he is now, the research-mad mages would never have left him alone.
But after safely arriving in Rohan.
After notifying the imperial family of Princess Riley’s safe return through the imperial garrison and returning to the lodgings with her, Isea learned that there was someone more interested than Harley.
“…So, is that person from another world from Earth?”
The injured person whom Heinrich took for more intensive treatment is the person.
When I first met him, I was so distracted by Riley that I didn’t pay much attention to him, but it was only natural that he was from the same country as me.
“Yes, my name is Heron… not Hesperon. A strange name, right? A transaction made by oneself in celebration of a new beginning. Pooh!”
“Hmm—?”
“Your real name is Haas…un? I think it said, but I don’t know. It was something difficult to pronounce.”
Lee Se-ah gazed at Riley, who was constantly chattering, with narrowed eyes.
They’ve been together for eight years, but it’s the first time she’s talked so happily about someone.
In the first place, this child who secretly builds a wall to everyone except Lee Se-ah treats others so comfortably.
It’s like watching a child grow up, and it’s a proud yet sad feeling.
“Well… that’s why I thought of Se Ah unnie, and there was nothing to do there at the time…”
In the meantime, her words continued.
What happened after being imprisoned in the Immortal King’s castle and meeting him.
Of course, since most of the time was spent in magic training, the story naturally had to flow around that.
At first, I felt a connection with something and started teaching magic, but I was surprised by the talent that reminded me of Isea of the past.
“. You couldn’t even stop halfway because of your pride, and in the end you had to desperately squeeze out what you knew?”
Riley raves about Hesperon’s abilities.
And Isae-ah could quickly understand why she was so eager to tell the story.
“…so what? Can’t Se-ah unnie take care of that person~? The Empire… No, that would be nothing to Isea Pristine, the continent’s greatest wizard! yes?”
“Hmm?”
Lee Se-ah tilted her head slightly as she looked at the smiling blonde beauty with Abu.
Somehow, I thought the words were getting long, but it seemed that I was going to ask for this from the beginning.
‘…Yes, it’s been over 8 years since I came to this world. I can’t be by this child’s side forever, so I needed someone else to stand by my side instead…’
Hearing his words, it seemed that he was a person with as much talent as himself, perhaps even more.
If her teachings are added to that, maybe in a few years he will grow enough to protect Riley.
But the problem here was that, after all, he was also an Earthling.
‘The day will come when he will leave Riley too. I might be able to buy some time, though.’
Of course, by then things will be very different from now.
In fact, by the time Riley returned alone, it was good enough to say that the race for the throne was almost over.
The shaky faction would gather tightly and rather quickly absorb the surrounding forces, and Isea’s activity, which barely managed to hold them back, would add strength to the phenomenon.
Perhaps within a year, without having to go for several years, would the crown prince be left without a place to go?
‘But, of course, the existence I’ve attached affection to after me is another person from the other world. I still have a sense of distance from people from here.’
In the meantime, I thought that I had improved a lot by forming a faction and leading people under me, but it seemed that the reluctance underlying that consciousness was still the same.
However, there is still quite a bit of time left, so I will have to find a way to solve this problem in the future.
“Well, okay. It is true that he made a big contribution. Even so, I won’t be able to spend that much time because of what I’m doing right now.”
However, apart from these and other complicated thoughts, Isea readily nodded at Riley’s request.
In fact, giving lessons to the benefactor who saved Riley was not a big reward.
Of course, I also thought of taking care of things separately.
And to add a little selfishness…
The desire to get a closer look at the stranger Riley had come to rely on next to her also played a part.
Isn’t it more likely that problems will arise in a relationship with the opposite sex than with the same sex!
There was no guarantee that the man would not have feelings for a pretty boy like Riley.
‘Because Riley is still young. As a teacher, I’ll give you a small warning so that he doesn’t think of anything stupid.’
The little girl, a little over 150 cm, nodded solemnly while looking at the tall beauty that was well over 170 cm tall.
“Good! As expected, Se-ah unnie!”
“Come to think of it, what kind of change of heart did you keep calling me unnie from earlier? He said he didn’t like it when he said that before.”
“hehehehe, just a little? Come to think of it, it’s not that difficult, but I guess I was too reckless.”
Riley, who smiled bashfully, hugged Isea again and teased her.
Inside, I was delighted with the feeling of satisfaction that things went well.
‘done! I can repay the favor to some extent with this. I still lack a lot, but I will be able to pay it back gradually in the future! Also, if Unnie and Heron are together with people from the same country, it will help me overcome homesickness in the future.’
Talking about Hesperon to Isea was also something that had already been agreed upon with him beforehand.
Being together in immortality, they had many conversations, and among them was the content that Riley would introduce the earthlings he knew.
Of course, Hesperon, who had intended to contact Isea from the beginning, readily accepted it and allowed the disclosure of information about himself.
After all, there were only fabricated things to say about his new image.
The eventful day ended with a warm reunion.
And when the next day dawned
“Thank you for saving me. ah! My name is Hesperon. I thought I was really going to die, but thanks to that, I lived.”
“It was nothing. That, too, must be the will of the Lord. My name is Heinrich.”
“Ha ha ha! He looks corrupt on the outside, but he’s quite strong! Oh, I can call you Harley!”
Finally, Hesperon, who had lost consciousness due to injuries, awoke, and the party was able to formally communicate with him.
In a state where ‘one person’ is included, like three people.
