"I see." After listening to the elven girl's explanation, the uncle felt a mix of emotions. He looked up at the sign again: "Purgatory Hot Spring."
"You really understand it?" The elven girl's gaze also fell on the sign: "Purgatory? What does that mean?"
"Generally speaking, before going to heaven after death, people undergo purification in purgatory." The uncle seemed to understand the meaning Murayama-senpai had hidden in the signboard.
"It seems that in his eyes, this world is purgatory..."
Upon seeing this, Jingwen and Tenggong couldn't help but look at their uncle with newfound respect: "Uncle, you know so much!"
[Uncle, you smiled proudly at this, after all, in the 90s, the names of techniques were almost entirely composed of difficult-to-pronounce Chinese characters. He only remembered the word "煉狱" (rengoku) from Yu Yu Hakusho.]
"Uh, I think this interpretation is a bit over the top. Considering the other person's age, is it possible that they simply wanted to describe the hot spring as very hot?"
"Nonsense, going to heaven isn't that complicated! It clearly requires 14 secret phrases and the courage to abandon your substitute, and then you can Made in Heaven."
Now! ”
After hearing their uncle's explanation, everyone rolled their eyes in exasperation. He'd really learned a lot from Yu Yu Hakusho, quite a wide range of knowledge... five...
Chapter 1097 To be polite... first you have to be treated like a human being!
Gabriel DropOut
"Before going to heaven after death, people undergo purification in purgatory?" Gabriel casually ruffled her frizzy hair and yawned listlessly. "Where did this fake news come from!"
As the top graduate of the Celestial Realm, although she has almost forgotten all her knowledge, she clearly remembers Lu Qi Yi 2 (IV) Si Ba, which is not recorded in the textbook at all.
Besides, who are they? Angels, huh? Purgatory and all that, that's the business of those demons in Hell, completely unrelated!
"Eh, isn't that how it is?" Satania, who called herself a great demon, was shocked and furious: "Damn angel, how despicable, spreading false information!"
To prevent the invasion of demons, he deliberately spread false information to the human world. He truly is my lifelong rival; he has some skill!
"Are you serious?" Gabriel rolled her eyes speechlessly. "Heaven is right next to hell. You can just take a car and go through security to travel here. You actually believe that?"
"As expected of Satania, she's amazing." Raphael's shoulders trembled violently, his eyes curved into crescent moons, but his eyelashes held back his laughter.
Purgatory and all that are really unnecessary. Going to heaven isn't that complicated; it's something that can be solved with a phone call...
Just then, the manager of the hot spring inn arrived at the door with a beaming smile: "It seems you are quite familiar with our previous owner, Miss."
The elven girl nodded modestly: "I guess so. People back home really enjoy stories about time travelers."
Seeing this, the hotel manager was very happy to explain to the two of them the mysterious origins of the hot spring hotel and the story of the time traveler.
"When a person from another world dies, everything they bring with them will disappear. When the previous boss breathed his last, his clothes and body vanished before my eyes."
"Moreover, it is said that transmigrators from other worlds receive a power bestowed by the gods."
"The previous owner inherited the ability to manipulate biological materials at will and create objects. Combining this with his woodworking experience, he established the Ichiryoku Basisi Inn. We talked about this inn."
"To put it simply, it's like turning on creative mode in Minecraft, right? That's invincible, my child... uh, sir."
After hearing the story told by the person in charge, the people from other worlds instantly came to a conclusion with two words: invincible!
As is well known, matter is essentially composed of three basic particles: atoms, molecules, and ions.
To put it more precisely, this old man's ability is to generate and manipulate atoms and molecules at will. If he wanted to, he could even create a nuclear bomb by hand!
Magical Girl Illya World
"This ability is so overpowered, but it feels so familiar..." Rin Tohsaka pondered for a moment, then seemed to realize something, and her expression became somewhat strange.
The more I hear this ability and description, the more it sounds like that shameless, chuunibyou, otaku old man from the real world of "Ghostly True World"!
Wait a minute, could this be the work of that idiot goddess Aqua again?
The Magic Ruby sighed regretfully, "His abilities are very strong, but unfortunately he used them to make hot springs."
"He's so old, what do you expect him to do with this ability?" Rin Tohsaka, snapping out of her daze, immediately launched into a tirade against the Magic Ruby: "Is he going to be a hero or a demon king?"
It's quite impressive that this nearly 90-year-old man could build a hot spring hotel in just a few days!
"Now that you think about it carefully," Ilya suddenly spoke up, asking a question that left everyone at a loss for words, "So, Grandpa's probationary period for becoming a hot spring owner hasn't ended yet?"
Luvia: "..."
Toosaka Rin: “…”
What a ridiculous joke, Ilya-chan!
Not only did his trial period not pass, but his own lifespan also expired, and he was forcibly removed from the market by the world.
While the innkeeper and the elf girl were explaining this important information, the uncle wasn't idle either, constantly pulling out all sorts of props from his storage space.
After carefully organizing each item, I put them back into the storage space...
As for the conversation between the elf girl and the innkeeper, sorry, he wasn't listening at all.
"Uncle..." Jingwen and Tenggong stared speechlessly at the scene: "You were tidying up the props? Of all times, at this time?"
"They're sharing very important information!"
The uncle, sweating profusely, offered a fairly reasonable explanation.
"In action games, there are long cutscenes that can't be skipped. I'm used to doing other things during those times, and that's probably why."
Teng Gong and Jing Wen were both speechless. This was a precious opportunity to unravel the mystery of time travel; wouldn't it be a shame to miss it?
"Skipping the story is understandable... my ass! They're completely disregarding us story-focused players. Do they even skip the FGO story?"
"Organizing your backpack during a story sequence is just so classic! However, experience tells me that you'll definitely regret skipping dialogue during such important long story segments."
Watching their uncle meticulously organizing his backpack, the people from other timelines felt a little ashamed. Brother, when it comes to gathering important intelligence, can't you just put up with that damned habit?
The Daily World of High School Boys
"Hmm..." Looking at this scene, Xiu crossed his arms and pondered for a moment: "Why don't you consider saving this game while you're at it?"
The dialogue itself isn't scary; what's scary is having to reload the game after a character dies, only to have to listen to the same agonizingly long dialogue repeatedly, one that can't be skipped.
That's what a real nightmare is. (For super-exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
"Wait, Hidenori! I can't pretend I didn't hear that." Yoshitake turned around slowly with a serious expression and continued in a solemn tone, "A save file that doesn't fully restore your stats is worse than not saving at all."
I recently transformed into a dragon and got drained by the elf lady, so I should at least use a potion to fully recover before anything else...
Xiuze suddenly realized his mistake and sincerely apologized: "I'm sorry, it was my oversight."
Zhongbang fell silent: "..." Is it just my imagination? I feel like I'm not quite keeping up with your train of thought!
After the elven girl finished her long conversation with the innkeeper, she noticed her uncle was still standing there in a daze: "Hey, orc face, let's go."
[Upon hearing this, the uncle snapped out of his daze and quickly followed them into the hot spring inn, where he bumped into the owner's wife and daughter, leading to a dramatic scene.]
"Ahhhhhh—"
[Upon seeing their uncle, the mother and daughter screamed in terror. The uncle was about to explain when he saw the two women huddled together, trembling with fear.]
The uncle was used to this, and to ease the tension, he casually asked, "Is this inn run by only the three of you?"
The hotel owner, who had been chatting confidently at the entrance, was now somewhat embarrassed: "The work...it's absolutely foolproof."
[Both Jingwen and Tenggong couldn't help but wonder if the time-traveling elder who founded the inn, Grandpa Murayama, had also suffered similar treatment.]
"Speaking of which, the hotel owner seems quite calm. He didn't even use a broom to chase my uncle away when he first met him."
"Haha, this is just basic stuff. This is basically how everyone reacts when they first meet their uncle in another world. You'll get used to it."
Seeing the somewhat embarrassed hot spring owner, everyone's eyes were full of encouragement: Don't be discouraged, compared to the reactions of others, you've been quite calm.
If there were a ranking, you might not be third, but you'd definitely be in the top three! You'd absolutely be among the best.
"By the way, Uncle!" Teng Gong seemed to suddenly remember something and asked curiously, "I've noticed that you're quite unceremonious when speaking to your elders in this other world."
[5.7 Jingwen also found this rather strange. Why was his uncle, who never used honorifics in the other world, using honorifics when speaking to the young shop assistant here?]
“You have to be polite…” the uncle replied heavily, radiating an intense, dark resentment, “First and foremost, you have to be treated like a human being!”
Jingwen had nothing to say about this, after all, it was his uncle's personal experience; the consequence of speaking humbly back then was being sold for three copper coins.
"To be polite, you must first be treated as a human being! Wow, that's well-reasoned and a truly wise saying."
"Well... now that I think about it, you really had it tough, Uncle. You were never treated like a human being in this other world. You had a really miserable life."
Hearing the profound words spoken by their uncle, the people from other worlds were speechless. Unlike their previous gaming experiences, these were golden words that their uncle had learned through blood and tears!
It's understandable that my uncle acts so willfully in this other world; after all, respect is mutual. Considering how the villagers usually treat him, the fact that he didn't overturn the table is already quite considerate.
Chapter 1098 My Uncle's Worth 30 Yen! He Can't Even Afford Loose Spicy Strips.
After the uncle and the elf girl arrived at the inn's front desk, the innkeeper returned with a beaming smile: "The accommodation fee for the two of you is 40 copper coins."
Upon hearing this, Jingwen almost burst into a tirade, his eyes filled with despair as he looked at his uncle: "Four hundred thousand coins? That's outrageous!!"
"Converted to Japanese yen, it's about 4 yen. They also have large denominations of currency there." Uncle calmly explained the exchange rate in this other world to Jingwen; this price seemed reasonable.
Upon hearing this, Teng Gong immediately had a bad feeling: "Then... what was the price when Uncle was sold?"
"30 cents yen."]
"A rare, talking orc is only worth this much? With that kind of wealth, he can't even afford a single loose spicy snack, let alone a bag of spicy strips, Uncle!!"
"Now I realize just how valuable three copper coins are in this other world. Even a blade of grass picked from the roadside might be worth more than my uncle..."
Upon hearing this outrageous exchange rate conversion, the faces of the people from other worlds turned dark. Fortunately, the uncle was a socially awkward otaku, not some failed art student, otherwise he would have started giving a speech in no time.
For example: Do you know how much it costs to stay at a hot spring inn? A full 400,000 copper coins! That's more than enough to move several horse-drawn carriages...
