Chapter 47
You don’t know how you got back, Kubota-kun?
That means there was some kind of accident… or it was someone’s doing.
“No, I don’t have a clue, but hey, seriously, you don’t know how you got back?”
“Yeah… I went to bed at night like normal and before I knew it, when I woke up, I was in my room. I thought I was just having a long dream, but…”
When Kubota-kun paused, he checked his surroundings and then floats a ball of water on his fingertips.
It’s the same magic I saw in the classroom.
“I could use this, so for now I know it wasn’t a dream. I also thought I was just dreaming about Japan, but I guess that’s not the case, either.”
Is seems that Kubota-kun is not so interested in the cause of his return, as long as he is able to come back like this.
If it was just an accident, he was lucky, and even if it was someone’s doing, why would that person bring someone else back without informing them of the situation?
Considering that, it’s only natural to be optimistic to some extent.
Kubota-kun seems to be happy to be back in Japan.
That may have also influenced his lack of interest in the cause.
Or…
Is it that there’s something about him that he doesn’t want to remember, and unconsciously hiding his memories and looking away?
No, that’s right.
If you think about the possibility of someone’s doing, it’s possible that he had his memories sealed.
Thinking so, I created a magical circle for analysis to see if there’s anything unusual about him, but there’s nothing in particular.
The only thing I can see is the magical power that he himself possesses, and there are no other unusual magical reactions.
(Hey, A-ji. Kubota-kun says he doesn’t know why he’s back, and I don’t have any idea why either, so do you have any idea what happened?)
[How come he doesn’t know about it… I’ve been away from the deserted island for a long time now. I don’t know.]
(Then you can ask Luminous-chan.)
[Okay, wait a minute… she doesn’t know, she just noticed it now after being told that. She pretended to think about it for a bit, but as far as I could tell, she didn’t seem to have any idea what she was doing.]
(Okay, thanks.)
In case you’re wondering, I asked A-ji about it, but I came up empty.
It seems that Luminous-chan, the person who summoned him, doesn’t seem to know as well.
The pretense of thinking is almost certainly about something else, since A-ji says so.
I’m not the kind of guy who would misread the will of god.
“…I have no idea at all.”
“Well… I thought it would be nice to know about it from Shinjou, but that’s a shame. Well, I got back, so that’s good enough for me.”
“That’s a relief… come to think of it, what kind of abilities did Kubota-kun get? It’s possible that your abilities have powered up and you’ve unconsciously activated it.”
When I told Kubota-kun that I didn’t understand what was going on, he gave me an unexpected answer.
It seems that he is no longer interested in the cause.
On the other hand, I’m tired because of the prospect of trouble… but well, Kubota-kun was finally freed from survival, so it’s hard to imagine how happy he was to be back in Japan.
I’m not sure what Kubota-kun’s intentions are, but I’m going to ask him about his abilities to see if I can find an answer.
“No, I don’t think so, because all I can do is create and manipulate water.”
“…you’ve chosen a very modest ability.”
“No, I mean, it’s not cool that someone saves your life and yet you ask them boldly, right?”
No, unfortunately, you were kidnapped just for fun.
And, my alter body A-ji, rather than asking for it, threatened her instead.
Of course, I don’t have to explain it to him, so I won’t.
It’s important to protect your dreams.
You may realize that the god’s words are a lie because I haven’t been to the other world, but that doesn’t stop you from spontaneously realizing them.
“I’ve heard that the place I’m going to be spending my days was uninhabited, so I figured the best way to survive is by using water.”
“You didn’t doubt it a little more? I’d be suspicious of someone saying that to me, but…”
“I mean, she was so hot! If she wasn’t a god, then what was she really? You just have to believe, as a man!”
When Kubota-kun laughed at the reason for his decision, Sasakura-san asked him to be a little more suspicious, to which he responded with a very straightforward answer.
If she wasn’t a god, then what was she?
She’s a demon. And She’s a great demon with outstanding power.
In addition, the bewitching older sister appearance at that time was an illusion, and in reality, she was a beautiful loli girl with big breasts and a little devilish look.
… well, I’ll protect Kubota-kun’s dream.
In other words.
“I exercise my right to remain silent!”
“What, what’s up with Shinjou?”
“Don’t worry about it, it’s just like a regular seizure.”
Harsh!
No, well, it was certainly something I said after thinking about something unimportant.
Do I say unimportant things that often…?
Well, Sasakura-san doesn’t seem to be fed up with it, so I’ll not worry about it.
“By the way, is there anything else that’s bothering you or that you’ve noticed?”
“Hmm… oh, by the way, this uniform.”
Sasakura-san’s question causes Kubota-kun to be a little troubled, and then he points to his uniform.
Uniform?
…Come to think of it, Kubota-kun, you’re wearing a normal, clean uniform.
There are a few wrinkles, but that’s just normal, so it didn’t feel strange at all, but if you think about it, this is strange.
There’s no way he would only have that level of wrinkles after being summoned to another world and living a life of survival.
“… you have two uniforms?”
“No, it was just in my room as usual… is this a clue?”
“…I’m sure you’re involved in something, but I have no idea.”
It’s obviously unnatural, but… no, I don’t know.
The intentions of someone else on the other side of the line seem suspicious.
Did it want to send Kubota-kun back to his room and provide him with a uniform?
I don’t understand.
“Other than that, … I can’t think of anything more.”
“Well, I guess it can’t be helped. If you remember anything else, feel free to let me know. Oh, I forgot to tell you, congratulations on your return to Japan.”
“Oh, I’m sorry, I also forgot to tell you. I’m so glad you’re back in Japan, Kubota-kun.”
“Oh! Thank you, Shinjou, Sasakura-san! Shinjou, you’re an unexpectedly nice guy!”
“Unexpectedly? you asshole”
I said what I could say, and time had passed.
When we finished the conversation and Sasakura-san and I congratulated him for coming back to Japan, Kubota-kun was so moved that he shed a few tears and tapped me on the shoulder.
It was just out of politeness, but since that made him happy, I guess that’s fine.
Just don’t add unnecessary words.
That kind of exchange, as if we were good friends, was not a bad thing.
Kubota-kun was a pretty solid guy, too.
With that in mind, we dismissed the group and headed back to our respective ways.
On the way home.
“Kubota-kun was looking better at the end.”
“Yeah, I’m sure the person who was most shaken about his sudden return was Kubota-kun himself.”
I remember Kubota’s return.
I was surprised to see him come back from another world.
Moreover, Kubota-kun was forced to return for some reason and not of his own volition.
Anyway, it’s not an accident or anything.
If it was an accident, her wouldn’t be prepared to resume his life in Japan as is.
At the same time, it seems unlikely that it was caused by another survivor.
Even if Kubota-kun was sent back for some kind of experiment or observation, I don’t think it’s possible to pinpoint where to send him back and prepare his uniform at home, and I don’t see the point of doing that.
Ultimately, the cause is unknown.
And it suggests the possibility of more returnees appearing in the future.
Kubota-kun was a pretty sensible guy, but…
If other returnees are going to show up, then by all means, let’s hope they stay calm.
Of course, I don’t have any obligation to get involved or do something about it.
So basically I’ll ignore them, but I can’t ignore people who abuse their abilities to cause problems.
“I hope nothing happens”
“Yeah”
For now, all I could do was pray for peace.
