Chapter 1: Tracking the Dust Slimes!
Locations: Various
Location: Shinjuku
Oh, we're finally here! Hey, [Player]! This way, this way!
|
Having left the Shinto Shrine grounds,
Agyou and the others wait for [Player] outside the torii.
While Agyou jumps and bounces around happily, he waves his hand at [Player].
All this waaaaalking is becoming a draaaaag for me.
|
Tsathoggua just called a taxi!
|
Just as Agyou said, a taxi with a 3 rows of seats stops in the middle of the road.

|
He's using a taxi......!?
|
What about leaping through space?
|
Tsathoggua can travel to another place in a flash.
I haven't seen it in practice myself though......
|
Hoh...... I see. Go on.
Demonstrate this technique of yours before Temujin.
|
Nope. It's not possible to accurately jump oveeeeer to the location
unless I have some degree of understanding of the preseeeeeence.
|
Traveling long distaaaances is nothing but trooouble.
It's just a waaaaaaste of eneeeergy.
|
Is that so.
It seems to be difficult to return to a world based on that ability alone.
|
Huh......! That's an idea too......!
|
And besides, jumping through space many times with this many people uses a tremendous amount of stamina.
With the exception of my underlings, of cooooourse.
|
We'll be using a taxi instead.
It'll be easier to go to the presence this way.
|
If I got cash to burn, then I won't hesitate to spend it.
This former ruler isn't doing this for show, you knooooow~.
|
Hoh, you would keep Temujin in suspense?
You are an intriguing one, Tsathoggua.
|
Bear this in mind.
Forcing clans that claim to be rulers of elsewhere to surrender is Temujin's forte, and likes.
|
I will make you all willingly wish from the bottom of yourselves for an audience with myself.
|
If you feel shame, I can give you mercy at that time.
It will still be amusing to carefully view the place of 2 people alone.
|
Y-You...! You can't be saying stuff like that out here!
|
2 options
|
Yeah, that's right!
|
Eh? What?
|
See! [Player] thinks so too!
|
You might be shunned by others if you get careless!
I'm telling you this out of kindness!
|
|
W-What.....?! Come on...... You can't let two people do that alone!
|
Your imaginaaaaation is running too haaaard......
It's just like saying something for the public moraaaals committeeeee of Roppongi.
|
I don't think anything of iiiiiiit.......
|
|
Do not be foolish. After all, it is worthless for the presence of goodwill.
If Temujin demands it, that is law.
|
Whether you pander to others, whether you pass time idly,
you cannot have it even for a moment.
|
I detest that even I cannot choose against the verge of death.
Perhaps, I will fall the next day.
|
If one's fate is to fulfill the ambition transcends the world,
then one lover shall leave behind an offspring.
|
Hence, I will invite those who depend on that,
and invite them to my Ordu to litter my offspring.
|
U-Uuuu...... This story is suddenly getting complicated......
|
2 options (Same Response)
|
You and your own children are different people.
|
You and I can't possibly leave behind a child?
|
Have you forgotten? When I say "leave behind offspring,"
the meaning is different to that of the masses from other worlds.
|
The "Rule" to leave behind something without regards to species or sex is central to our home world Xanadu.
|
Shining in his hands is his bow "Sacred Artifact."
Temujin then laughs.
"I will inherit life" to those who cannot be impregnated.
It was more effective than the "method" used when Tengri descended down to earth.
|
...... What you say is quite complicated and selfish.
I don't understand it well, but there is one thing I can empathize with.
|
...... I too have spent a long time on the battlefield.
The way of the many warriors burned into these eyes.
|
Increase the number of strong warriors.
"Father of the Einherjars," the Chief, and the "Famed" all cherished that. I will not deny it.
|
And plenty of fertility is what a boar is most best at.
I want to increase the same type of family members and prove useful to the Chief......
|
So we have come to an understanding, eh?
Then, you may not be a hindrance.
|
Now then, [Player].
Come sit next to me in this vehicle, and amuse me from my boredom.
|
No need for you to take his hand, [Player].
Come sit next to me, I'll protect ya.
|
Heh, wild boars only know nothing but foolishness.
Additionally, you intend to make advances onto my sworn ally.
|
To be foolish is my honor. That defines who I am.
|
S-Stop being hard on each other and start getting aloooong!!
It's just a taxi ride, alright!?
|
Well, just make sure you decide sooooon.
By the way, I'm gonna go ahead and take a seat alone in the baaaaack.
|
I happen to be bigger than all of youuuuu.
It's for the best so you all don't get cruuuushed.
|
3 options
|
Wanna sit on my lap, Agyou?
|
I'll sit with Temujin and the others.
|
I wanna sit on Tsathoggua's lap!
|
Eh!? Y-You can't be serious about making me sit on you!!
I'm just a small kid, you know!!
|
And those guys are way bigger than me,
I'll start feeling small.....!
|
Although, sitting on someone's lap will make them warm too......
That does sound nice though......
|
Okay! I've decided! Lemme sit on your lap, [Player]!
|
|
Hoh? You would handle the same row with Temujin and this daredevil, sworn ally?
|
[Player], it's better for you to sit at the end than in the middle.
|
You don't know what this man will do in a vehicle.
|
Shall I go ahead and hunt this nuisance of a boar right now?
Temujin would absolutely not spend time with him.
|
Gosh, you really wouldn't want to put these two next to each other......
|
|
Geeeh!? Mmm...... I guess I'm fine with thaaaaat.
|
[Player], you can rest on my lap and treat me like a body pilloooooow.
|
|
The 5 people got in the taxi and chose a seat to their liking,
the taxi then slipped off the road of New Year's day.
[Transitioning...]
Location: Kamata
The presence is getting a lot strooooonger.
Let's take the stop heeeere.
|
Tsathoggua gives the signal, causing the taxi to stop.
You are now in Kamata of the Ota Ward.
It is a district about 30 minutes away on the Shuto Expressway from Shinjuku.
This is...... This is a school from this world?
|
It's the Kamata Technical Junior College.
It's kinda weird having a workshop inside a school.
|
This schooool is...... I'm sure this school is related to the Crafteeeers.
|
3 options
|
The Crafters?
|
This guild should be familiar with "Sacred Artifacts."
|
I heard rumors about this place......
|
It's a so-called engineering group thaaaat partakes in studying and streeengthening "Sacred Artifacts."
|
|
[Player], you know about it toooo?
|
Like the Tycoons, those who want to strengthen the "Sacred Artifacts" often come heeeeere.
|
|
I don't knooooow the details myself,
but only they don't get attacked by any other guuuuilds out theeeeere.
|
This area is nonaggressive, eh? Intriguing.
And it is indeed logical.
|
Like that of Xanadu, if we were to subjugate a warrior from a skilled mass,
the rumors shall spread like a wildfire.
|
They will not allow anyone to approach and claim the territory.
However, if Temujin is told not to intrude, then Temujin shall certainly lead a raid.
|
Kurogane is "Young Man with Goggles?" when you meet him.
Uhh, that would be a little troublesome if you want to conquer us.
|
Suddenly a man wearing work clothes appears from behind the group.
Based on his mannerisms, this man seems to be a member of the Crafters.
A-Aiyaaaah......! You got it all wrong!
We're not trying to do a conquest or anything......!
|
Right!? Yeah, that's right!
Hey, [Player]! Give an explanation!
|
3 options
|
Nice to meet you!
|
We're chasing after those peculiar little creatures.
|
Feels like we met somewhere before......
|
Hah, aren't you polite? Feels like I saw you before...... Junior.
|
Name's Kurogane. I'm the guild master of the Crafters.
|
Feel free to call me, "Kurogane-senpai"!
I'm happy to make your acquaintance, Junior.
|
|
Peculiar little creatures you say? What are they like?
Oh, I wonder if they'll give me an idea for an invention!
|
Whoops......! I should introduce myself first.
|
You're [Player], right? I feel like...... we met before, Junior.
|
Name's Kurogane. I'm the guild master of the Crafters.
|
Feel free to call me, "Kurogane-senpai"!
I'm happy to make your acquaintance, Junior.
|
|
Ohhh, you feel that way too?
I believe this isn't our first meeting together, it seems.
|
I feel we'll get along just fine, I guess!
Anyways, what is your business in our Kamata Crafters?
|
You don't need to hide anything.
Kurogane-senapai is the guild master of the Crafters!
|
|
The Crafters is an amazing guild, right?
The guild master is pretty cool too!
|
If you're the chief of a such technical group,
do you happen to know a method for me to return to my original world?
|
Hrm? Who is your Summoner?
|
We still don't know who for now.
Regardless, please tell me if there's any such means to do so.
|
Huh? So you don't know who or where your Summoner is at the moment?
|
Hmmm, how should I say this......
I'm not exactly familiar with that aspect.
|
Gramps probably knows something about it though.
Gramps is also a longtime, stray "Transient."
|
Oh, but before we do that, we need to find those Dust Slimes......
|
Hey, Tsathoggua. You're sensing a presence from this school, right?
|
That's riiiiiight. They should be just around this workshop......
|
Tsathoggua points at the workshop joined with the school building.
At that moment, you heard someone's angry voice, which shook the ground from far away.
???:( face)
Hephaestus you idiot!
Were you slacking off with the cleaning!? What are these strange things!?
|
T-That voice just now was...... Gramps!?
|
He said strange things...... Could it be!?
|

|
Dust Slimes!
|
Let's go!
|
[Transitioning...]
Gramps! Are you alright!?
|
Oh, Kurogane, you came just at the perfect time!
I happened to see these things in the factory......!
|
Gaaaaaah! I-It's them! The ones we're looking for!
|
These things throw out a ton of trash here and there,
and we're trying to find the culprit ourselves!
|
Wooow......! I feel these are subspecies of slimes,
but I definitely never seen these before.
|
A-Aaahh! They shouldn't be touching the faucets! That's dangerous!
We can't let them scatter around there!
|
Unless this settles down, we can't start talking.
Stay back, child and old man who can't fight, I'll take care of this.
|
A-An old man who can't fight!?
|
Those little eyes of yours must be for show!
Did you not see these muscles I trained hard for!?
|
Sorry to offend you. But, the strong should be protecting the weak.
|
The weak have no need to be fighting and pushing themselves too hard.
That is, strength is to protect the weak.
|
Finishing his blunt statements, Gullinbursti then brandishes his sword.
By that alone, the Dust Slimes froze in fear.
There are even some among them that are attemping to escape as well.
What's this......? Chief, that sword......
|
Ah, right, we'll discuss it after!
|
Whether or not Amatsumara-sama is weak,
you shall see it with your own eyes, greenhorn!
|
I will make you realize your mistake in those bad eyes,
to show you still have much to learn! Let us begin!!
|
...... Yeeeah, I'm not gonna bother doing anythiiiing.
If you'll excuse me, I'll go secretly slaaaaaaack off.
|
It is indeed boisterous.
But, when Temujin and his sworn ally are together, that is always the case.

Agyou, a demon's skipping out!
|
Deep breaths, deep breaths.......
|
N-No, s-stop thaaaat! Agyou's gonna punish me if you call me ooooout!
|
|
In preparation for emergencies, one must always reserve enough power......
That is a measure for a ruler.
|
Sworn ally, my gesture for battle has never changed.
|
Entrust yourself to Temujin...... I yearn for those nostalgic days.......
