Chapter 17.5 Journey

 

First case: Sakura.

[Is it okay for me to ask you something, Sakura?]

[What is it?]

[Do you want to return to your original world?]

I’ve always wanted to hear her opinion. From the fragments of her past that I’ve heard, I couldn’t say it was a happy environment. So I want to hear her feelings about returning to that kind of world.

After Sakura heard what I asked, she thinks for a while and then answers.

[Honestly, I don’t have any desire to return home right now.]

[May I hear the reason behind this decision?]

[Yes. When I was summoned to this world, I didn’t know much about the situation in this world or whether I was going to live or die, at first. Both Jin-kun and your actions changed my mind.]

It seems she doesn’t want to return as much as I thought.

[When I calmed down and thought about my former world and this world carefully, there wasn’t much difference, especially since you don’t know when you are going to die.]

[No, it’s easier to die in this world…]

[Really? I was a powerless high school girl in the former world, but in this world, I have enough power to protect myself and defeat monsters. Malice in the former world was vague, but it’s easy to detect here.]

I understand what Sakura wants to say. It is okay to fight fire with fire here, but it was hard to do that in our former world.

[Then, what about your family and friends? Do you want to return and see them?]

[I don’t want that either. I didn’t have any friends nor teachers I respected either. And parents? Could you stop mentioning them?]

Hmm… Her past might be darker than I thought.

[Jin-kun is in this world. I was able to make friends with Dora-chan, Mio-chan and Maria-chan. See? Isn’t this world better?]

When talking about friends, it seems she has more friends than in the former world.

[That is my answer, but what about Jin-kun? If Jin-kun wants to return to our former world, I will return, too.

[Me…? Actually, I think I’m with you. I don’t want to return, either. If I had been summoned here alone, I might want to go back, but the whole school was summoned here…]

[What do you mean?]

[Hmm… I could say that this is an opportunity…]

[Eh?]

[I don’t need to worry about my parents, either. So I don’t have any desire to return, at all. But “Can’t return” and “Not return” are totally different. I still want to find a way to return to the former world, but that isn’t our first priority.]

[Understood. Please remember that I only follow Jin-kun, after all.]

[Yeah.]


Second case: Mio.

[Come to think of it, do you want to return to your former world, Mio?]

[Eh? I’m going to follow you, wherever you are.]

This was a little unexpected. I don’t think she’s had many enjoyable experiences in this world.

[This world is interesting, like my former world. Fortunately, I have the appearance of being Japanese.]

[I guess you have an emotional attachment to this world.]

[It seems so. Apart from my hometown, I think it is better that I follow Master. Just because I can’t meet my former family, won’t Master support me?]

[If it is about finances, I will leave it in your hands.]

[Of course! I will show you how serious I am!]

Well… I forget to say something.

[Oh, about your former family or family register, please don’t worry because I can manage something.]

[Eh, Master? Can you do that?]

[Well, I have some connections…]


Third case: Maria.

[Maria, what are you going to do if I return to my former world?]

[I will follow you.]

Her answer is what I expected.

[But I don’t think you’ll be able to live there easily because there aren’t any beastmen there.]

[I’ll just cut my ears and tail off.]

[Don’t go that far…]

She is serious, as always.

[If you don’t want me to follow, I won’t follow.]

[Really?]

[Because I give Jin-sama’s heart top priority. In that case, can I have your affection?]

Affection?

[Because I will stay here and live with my child who is born with Jin-sama…]

[I-I will think about it…]

Please don’t say that.

Forth case: Dora.

[I will take Dora along with me. The end.]

<<What are you talking about?>>

[I’m talking about how cute Dora is.]

<<Ehe Ehe~>>

[Err… Why did you ask each of us?]

Sakura asked.

[Yeah, I’m thinking about our objectives from now on.]

[Our objectives from now on? Does Jin-sama want to return to his former world?]

Maria asked, a bit worried.

[I don’t know, but that isn’t our top priority.]

[Really? Since you hate this world, wouldn’t you want to return to your former world as quickly as you can?]

I guess Mio saw that part of me.

[No, I don’t hate this world. Shouldn’t we gather more information before we decide whether to hate it or not?]

I Won’t make a decision yet.

[I hate this country, but it doesn’t mean I hate this world, too. After we leave this country, I want to go sightseeing before I make a decision, if possible.]

[Uh-huh, So returning to our former world isn’t our top priority, right?]

[Sakura and I don’t have any reasons to return to our former world. If Sakura wants to return, I would do my best to find a way, but she doesn’t want to do that.]

I look at Sakura, and she nods back to me.

[I was bullied in my former world. Since Jin-kun is in this world, and I have power, it is better than my former world. So… I have no objections.]

[I don’t have a problem, either. There is no reason for me to desperately want to return. I’ll still look for a way to return, for sure, but that isn’t our top priority. I still want to do some sightseeing in this world…]

Yeah, sightseeing. If this world is beyond saving, it wouldn’t be unreasonable to return to our former world.

[Then does that mean you are going to do some sightseeing before you decide whether to stay in this world or not?]

[That’s right. Since I asked everyone about their opinions a little while ago, I’m going to comply them.]

<<What are you talking about?>>

Since talking with Dora is useless, it doesn’t matter.

[Dora, if I wanted to go to a faraway place, would you want to come along with me?]

<<Uh! Of course~>>

See? It is doesn’t matter, at all.

[Lastly, with my special power, no matter what kind of enemy we have, I won’t let them do as they wish.]

[It is my declaration to be the strongest in the world…]

[This is my goal for now.]

No matter what kind of enemy I have to face, I won’t lose. I must protect my important things from any threats. So this is my goal: to become the strongest.

[So, our priorities are sightseeing, improving our strength, and finding a way to return, in this order.]

[Understood. Since I will follow Jin-kun, I will leave the next destination to you. To be honest, any place is fine, as long as it isn’t in this country…]

[I also don’t want to do any sightseeing in this country. If we want to sine sightseeing, I want to do it in the place we can enjoy.]

[I will follow Jin-sama anywhere you go.]

<<I want to eat a lot of delicious food~>>

This is our plan for the future. For now, though, we need to leave this country quickly.

29 thoughts on “BFTG-NT Chapter 17.5

    1. I can only assume that the author will only change them staggeringly. So the last few chapters or special chapters may only be counted, in terms of status, in later status updates.

      Also, probably a clue. Spirit Sword INCOMPLETE. Spirit magic. Hmmm. A spirit sword with no spirit. It seems Saladin and Elizabeth were actually fated to be together.

      1. What I’m mostly curious is WTF is “slave magic”(thought he said he’d toss it like “seal” and it does something other than bind someone against their will?) and “spirit art”(well spirit magic is kinda vague but art is even less…)?
        Also when the hell the author is gonna say what living magic does?(if it is like druid magic that controls nature OK makes sence… but if that is so it would be the most popular magic around as it could improve crops and livestock a lot right?)And is there even some sort of “boost magic” in this world or there is only those boost skills like “fighting spirit”?
        Kinda annoyed how after all those “Oshiete help-sensei” chapters yet he still needs to explain living and slave magic.

        1. Living magic = bath, cleaning, washing and anything else in daily life. Easier than use other magic (like dry their clothes with wind and fire magic)
          Useful for traveling but they have “much” better alternative.

          1. Is the kanji translation seriously that?
            Author didn’t really need to create this magic at all…
            Or is a silent proof that the goddess really is stupid and unreliable…

          2. I think life magic is more appropriate for it deal with life needs . like
            Cleaning. Showering. Etc

        2. This Living Magic is usually called as Life Magic in other novels. Best example would be Death March, which I presumed this novel had gotten the inspirations from. As SpecterZe explained, it does something like cleansing body and all that. I can’t really recall any serious applications of this magic from Death March to be honest.

  1.      ∧_ ∧
        (`・ω・)  Thanks!
       ,ノ^  yヽ、  Nepu!!
       ヽ,, ノ==l.ノ    Pudding!!!
        /  l |
    “””””~”””””‘””””””‘”””””~”””””‘””””””‘”””””~””

  2. Third case: Maria.

    [Maria, what are you going to do if I return to my former world?]

    [I will follow you.]

    Her answer is what I expected.

    [But I don’t think you’ll be able to live there easily because there aren’t any beastmen there.]

    [I’ll just cut my ears and tail off.]

    [Don’t go that far…]

    She is serious, as always.

    [If you don’t want me to follow, I won’t follow.]

    [Really?]

    [Because I give Jin-sama’s heart top priority. In that case, can I have your affection?]

    Affection?

    [Because I will stay here and live with my child who is born with Jin-sama…]

    [I-I will think about it…]

    Please don’t say that.

    Forth case: Dora.

    [I will take Dora along with me. The end.]

    Those few lines put such a giant smile on my face. XD

    1. Tbh I’m just ignoring the fact that they r not updating everything he takes… Coz he(MC) did mention that he’s gonna take a bit skill points from Maria, not added, he fought a ton of monsters in the forest and there were some additional skills which ofc he did mention, but not added, and then there’s the recent one Sebastian/saladin fight the guy had berserker lv 5, also high level recovery and living magic (lv 5) and some others which I’m forgetting, not added.
      There might be some scenarios I didn’t mention here where there some skills he took, ofc, but they weren’t included in the skill list… I’m just watching now lol. Most probably either gave up or just getting used to this… Haha

  3. [Oh, about your former family or family register, please don’t worry because I can manage something.]

    [Eh, Master? Can you do that?]

    [Well, I have some connections…]

    Anyone not bothered who jin is in his former world.

    1. Yeah. It seems he wasn’t your average high school boy in the previous world either. He also judged things calmly when he was summoned. There weren’t any scenes of him being shocked by his status window, and he simply immediately inspected everyone’s status to compare things and to decide his future actions from all the gathered information.
      That particular childhood friend who had the Gluttony-like skill seemed to have thought highly of MC as well, to the point of thinking MC was a protagonist-like even in the previous world.
      MC did claim that it’d be his first time killing a living being back then though.
      I’m thinking something of a young master of a Yakuza family? Such person wouldn’t be involved in immediate harming of other people, but would still be informed of all the dark things.

  4. Lol fluffy cute things get Special treatment that was nice and comical and maria is one heck of a strong willed person alright.
