Chapter 90 Worry
The day after completing the Escort Request and Returning from the Golem Mountain Range,
I woke to the Bright sunlight that shone through the windows.
[.......hmm, It’s Morning]
I looked out through the windows with my eyes still half-open; it seems that only a little after sunrise, I was still not completely awake.
Hmm, it seems that I slept a little longer than usual. Well it is probably because I haven't slept since the day before. Although I was fine physically, I guess I was tired mentally.
O~k it’s alright. There are various things that I need to do, thinking about them, I slowly got up from the bed and then started my usual stretching exercises.
And I started to plan my schedule for today while stretching.
[Well, what should I do today? Well I guess I will just go to the Gordo forest as usual and Level Up]
Immediately after that, I realized that I missed something completely.
That’s right, I remember now, a while ago I had promised Minarisu-san that I would learn to cast Magic once I came back from the Golem Mountain Range. This is really bad, I completely forgot about it.
Alright, let’s go to Minarisu-san's room after getting ready
A few minutes after getting ready, I headed towards Minarisu-san’s room.
Then, I knocked on it lightly.
[Minarisu-san, I have something that I want to consult with you on, is it fine to talk right now?]
When I said so,
The reply came quickly.
[That voice is it Yuuma. Yes, you can come in.]
[Is that so. Then please excuse me.]
I opened the door and entered since I'd already got permission.
Seeing Minarisu-san sitting on the bed sent me into a daze. Yup, her appearance looks really cute, but the inside that figure was an old woman. Well that’s just how it is.
I was thinking so while looking at Minarisu-sans face,
[Yuma yo, I’m very happy that you find this form so cute that you're staring so intently.]
So she said while laughing with *niya niya*.
{EN: seriously, someone please tell me what kind of laugh that is}
Yup, the 150-year old grandmother just said that she was happy that I found her cute. But certainly she is really cute. But besides her looks? Well regardless it certainly was rude of me to stare at a girl. I’ll apologize.
[Please forgive me. I shall be careful next time.]
[Umu, its fine. Now then, let’s move onto the main subject. The reason for Yuuma wishing to talk to me in my room is about Magic Casting that we spoke about earlier right?]
[Yes. It is about that.]
[As I thought. Although I would like to do so as well, I have something that I need to do right now; consequently I cannot teach you right away, so we shall probably start in about 2~3 days.]
Eh~, so Minarisu-san had something to do. Just what kind of business does she have? Well it’s not something that I should be curious about.
[Is that so? Understood, then I shall come back after 3 days to talk again. Then, please excuse me.]
And then I gently lowered my head towards Minarisu-san and left the room.
Now, although it is a bit late I'll go have breakfast. Thinking so, I headed towards the Dining hall. The moment I entered the Dining Hall, I heard a voice calling out to me as usual. And so I headed towards it.
[Yo Yuma, You seem to have woken up really late today. Are you ok]
[Ahh, sorry about that. I slept a little longer than usual.]
[Iguru-san, Aniki just came back from the Golem Mountain range just yesterday. That’s probably why he took a little longer today,]
[Oh yeah, that's probably what happened. I completely forgot about it since he came back so quickly.]
And soon after, Sari brought 3 servings of breakfast to the table. Hmm, did Iguru and Marubuta wait for me until I woke so that we could have it together? Then, I had the breakfast along with the two while thanking them in my heart.
A few minutes later, the three of us had completely devoured our breakfast and started to talk with a relaxed atmosphere.
[Yeah, by the way Yuuma. What are you planning to do today?]
[Well, I thought about it and decided that I will go to the Gordo forest and raise my level as usual.]
When I said so, Both Iguru and Marubuta made an expression both of amazement and worry.
[Ha~a*, you really like to level up, huh. Well if you don’t mind, maybe you should take some time off, rest is just as important right?]
[That’s right. Certainly Aniki is really a strong person and might be even be only half human! But even so it would be better if Aniki took some rest occasionally.]
{*EN: Can't remember if I said it before but I'll say it here: it's like an onomatopoeia for a sigh and is pronounced as 'haaaA' not 'haa' as Google says….I believe}
With those expressions on their face, they looked really worried about my health.
[Well, it’s alright, I will take a rest if I feel like I'm really tired. And to the both of you, “Thank you” for worrying about me.]
After that, the three of us continued to talk for a while before the three of us departed for the guild.
A short while after leaving zinnia, we arrived at the Guild and entered inside.
[Well, Yuuma, I'm going to take a request of Rank C again, so see ya later.]
And as he said, Iguru walked to the request bulletin board of C class requests.
Then, the ones remaining were Marubuta and I.
[So what are you going to do Marubuta?]
[Me? I’m going to help a Newbie Adventurer for today! Ah, he's coming over here. It’s that person!]
Ho~, let's see. I looked in the direction that Marubuta pointed with his finger. while I was thinking so turning away from Marubuta’s face, in my sight came a Boy running towards us.
[Sorry to have kept you waiting Aniki! Aniki, who is this person?]
A boy that closely resembles Marubuta asked while looking at me.
[Oy listen to me carefully. This person is my benefactor, the person that I respect the most in the world, and my one and only Idol! And most of all my Aniki]
The boy who closely resembles Marubuta turns towards me.
[Oh, so you are the Aniki of my Aniki! Please forgive my rudeness. My name is Hanbuta! Please look after me from now on Great Aniki!]
And then Hanbuta lowered his head towards me. Hmm, he seems to be a polite child. I am impressed.
[It’s good that you're polite. My name is Yuuma. Take care of me as well.]
I held my hand out and shook hands with Hanbuta.
Soon after that, Marubuta and Hanbuta went out of the guild after picking up an E-rank request. Also, I secretly spoke to Marubuta and it seems that they have no blood relationship. In other words it’s a complete coincidence. It’s quite incredible that they resemble each other so much.
Well, I guess I'll go pick my request as well. Then, I walked to past a bulletin board and found a request which made me quite anxious.
[B-rank request, suppress Guros Rabbitsu. Reward 6 Gold coins]
And the location of the request was the Faris Forest.
It was the forest where I first set foot in this world…….
