Thank you to G. Sadewa, Parker, DL, Stewy, M. Tiffany, F. Last, W. Ho, D. Evangelista, S. Luce, and rabusmar for funding my patreon!
My kind editor kept bugging me kindly asking me to do a status volume. Soooo, here we are.
Also, it seems I got someone’s name wrong in C1 (the playboy’s), so his name was corrected from Naito Hiroshi to Kaidou Senichi. (Author-dono has yet to put any furigana above the names, so it’s kinda guess-work.)
Enjoy!

That day, Tatsuya and Kanae were enjoying themselves on a date.
Dates with 4 people or rather with 3 people not including Tatsuya were the norm. Kanae wasn’t here with her position as a teacher but as Tatsuya's lover, and today was a rare one on one date.
Because one on one dates were rare, it was an unexpected story.
As it seemed that there were various problems in a nearby place, while enjoying the drive with Kanae’s driving, they sallied forth to a complex amusement establishment in the outskirts.
Given that it was a little far from their home area, the likelihood of meeting an acquaintance was extremely low.
Even if they met, they planned to use an excuse one way or another saying something like it was something related to the club activity.
“There truly is everything here……” (Negishi->Kanae)
Like Kanae said, this establishment was equipped with equipment for bowling, karaoke, a game center, a movie theater, a spa, a restaurant, and a lodging establishment.
The residents in the neighborhood wouldn’t be troubled with having a good time.
Tatsuya and other’s main event for the date was a movie.
Although it was betaᴬ, it was convenient as a travelling incognito date.
Saying it incidentally, the film that was being screened was Tatsuya’s……or, how should it be put, it was a favorite work of Endou’s family.
“Are you really okay with this?” (Tatsuya)
Tatsuya confirmed it with Kanae.
“Yes, I like both fantasy and science fiction. I also like this work.” (Kanae)
This work, it was originally a novel, was dramificationed and made into a film several times.
What was showing this time, it was the latest work that was just released a few days okay.
『Parallel World Japanese Army』
Tatsuya’s paternal grandfather's war buddy seemed to be an author, and his grandfather and grandmother were big fans. A follower soldier who appeared inside the work was his grandfather as a model.
It was cut in the drama version because it was a minor role, and it was unknown whether or not it would appear in the movie this time.ᴮ
The time period was the closing years of the Pacific War.
During the strategy mobilization in Southeast Asia, the protagonist’s unit was transported¹ to a parallel world.ᴮ
The protagonist’s unit was perplexed. However, they deepened their exchanges with the local people who didn’t even understand their words and saved the village by protecting them from bandits.²
They cultivated the potatoes they brought, the group members who were carpenters built houses, and the person who was experienced in blacksmithing taught the iron manufacturing technique to the dwarves.
While kicking about monsters, bandits, etc, the protagonist and others searched for a way to return to their former world.
And then, the climax. A local girl was kidnapped by a dragon.
Even the unit that had continued advancing in delight unrivalled so far, it was at a disadvantage against the dragon as one would expect.
Did they have no choice but to abandon the girl……?
“Not helping the local girl, what imperial soldiers would we be! What will only 1 lizard do!” (Protagonist)
The unit went to exterminate the dragon with remarks like that from the commanding officer’s attitude which was similar to a lump of pride.
At the end of the fierce battle, the protagonist and others who exterminated the dragon discovered the magic of moving between parallel worlds from the dragon’s treasure.
The unit returned to Japan like this……
“Haa~, as I thought, commanding officer ShigarakiShigaraki is cool……” (Kanae)
Kanae said with absorbed eyes.
Tatsuya also was of the same opinion. Even with him just seeming to be self-important everyday, the ‘rash when he does things’ man was cool.
It was bad for the Kondou boy (who appeared perfectly) that his grandfather became a model.
Even so, to regard the american troops as a dragon, the sensitivity of his grandfather’s war buddies also changed considerably.
Well, it wasn’t just a war personal experience for this reason, and it seemed he wrote a fantasy novel.
Currently, Tatsuya and Kanae were talking to each other about their thoughts of the movie at the cafe.
“Although it was also difficult for them to mutually understand their purposes, it’s normal to understand just the words if they transition to a fantasy worlddd.” (Kanae)
“Well, in reality, it’s because it’s a story written by a person in a war in an area that didn’t understand their words.” (Tatsuya)
“That is so. But, in the story of configuring it so they communicate with words, I wonder how they would communicate.” (Kanae)
“Telepathy?” (Tatsuya)
……while they talked, it shifted to a discussion about the configuration of the fantasy world.
“Kyaa!” (???)
There was the noise of something collapsing together with a moderate shriek in Tatsuya’s immediate vicinity.
When he looked with a surprised glance, the first thing he caught sight of was the girl who had fallen. After that, the nice old lady who was walking heavily and clumsily in the middle of the pathway……
……Well, he guessed the outline of what had happened.
“Umm, are you alright?” (Tatsuya)
Tatsuya wasn’t a gentleman or something like that, but he couldn’t help but calling out if they collapsed close like this as one would expect.
“Yes, I’m alri-……ah.” (???)
“Ah.” (Tatsuya)
They knew each other.
It was his classmate, Seiryūin Reika.
……following her name, she seemed to be a splendid rich girl³, but the person herself was a girl who stood out in class and a lot to the common people.
“Endou-kun? ……and Negishi-sensei?” (???->Seiryūin)
“Aah, she got me to take part in the discussion of club activities a little……” (Tatsuya)
Certainly, he had thought about it as an excuse, but that was the assumption it was the situation they were seen just a little.
He hadn’t thought they’d properly have a conversation in an actual place with it close like this.
Just as he thought, he was looked at with a skeptical gaze without fail.
“Reika, what’s wrong? ……ah.” (???)
The girl who seemed to be accompanying Seiryūin also turned up……and that child also noticed it.
At the same time, Tatsuya was impatient in another meaning.
He had met that child.
Let alone having met her, if he remembered correctly, she was a classmate.
However, their name didn’t come out.
Was there a child like this? Although it was to a degree, his instinct was informing him she was surely a classmate.
『Status Open』
In the end, Tatsuya decided to cheat.
Full Name: Kaidou Senichi (Virgin)
Species: Human
Age: 16
Family Members: Father・Mother
Lovers: 1
Physical Strength: 90
Muscle Strength: 85
(The rest is omitted)
“Kaidou!?” (Tatsuya)
“Ah, uu, eh……” (???->Kaidou)
No, he knew that Kaidou and Seiryūin were going out with each other.
He had confirmed it on the day he became able to see statuses, and it matched the mutual ‘lover’ of now as well.
It appeared they had also come on a date here.
However, the Kaidou before his eyes was a girl.
There was an indication Kanae didn’t know who it was, but it appeared she knew with the name.
“Ahh, Kaidou……-kun? -san? If it’s a gender identity disorder or something like that, it will be taken into account if you request for it?” (Kanae)
She spoke such a thing.
Although it was a low voice, it wasn’t something to talk about in a place like this. Somehow or other, it seemed she was extremely confused.
“Ahh, it’s……alright. Probably. At present is just a clothing hobby.” (Kaidou)
Kaidou answered similar to giving up.
Well, because he was going out with Seiryūin, it seemed he didn’t like men. Tatsuya concluded so.
……Seiryūin who was entwining her arm with Kaidou’s female figure didn’t understand.
“Sayyyy, keep this thing a secret……” (Tatsuya)
“Eeh, it is I who should say so.” (Kaidou)
Tatsuya and Kaidou mutually bribed themselves into secrecy.
Unexpectedly, they decided to share secrets with each other.
While they were at it, also information of date spots they wouldn’t meet an acquaintance.
