Re:Zero - Starting from Zero (Natsuki Subaru)

Chapter 88: Speeding Up Playback

Quiet.

After Subaru Natsuki from the other world spoke, everyone inside the Sage's Tower fell silent.

No one took the initiative to speak; they were all staring blankly as Natsuki Subaru and his friends, with their different personalities and opinions, argued their points in the chat room.

Emilia's heart tightened, and she subconsciously sensed that Subaru Natsuki from another world seemed to be in some danger.

Natsuki Subaru frowned and immediately reminded everyone.

"Everyone, it's best to ignore me from other worlds and not to speak to them."

"Although it's not nice to say it like this, I always have a vague feeling that something's not right about me in other worlds."

"I'm afraid that I might be just as dangerous in other worlds as I am in the Gluttony world, and I don't want anyone to have anything to do with them."

"After all, with the Sky Curtain in existence, it's possible that the Sky Curtain might bring them to our world just for fun."

"If that's the case, then it would be dangerous for anyone who has any contact with them."

Subaru Natsuki looked serious.

Otto nodded in approval.

"Everyone, Mr. Natsuki is right. Although I know you are all curious about what Mr. Natsuki from other worlds experienced, it's best to be careful."

"I believe that Natsuki's experiences from other worlds will definitely be shown behind the screen."

"As for us, even in chat rooms, let's try to stay away from Natsuki-san from other worlds."

Subaru Natsuki nodded in agreement.

"That's right, that's the gist of it. I don't want anyone to take risks."

Because of their trust in and understanding of Subaru Natsuki, everyone agreed to Subaru's suggestion.

Although Rem was still somewhat curious about Subaru Natsuki from the Sloth World Line, it was none of her business anyway.

All I need to do is follow Natsuki Subaru's instructions.

……

The sky curtain.

The perspective shifts to nighttime, in Roswaal's room, where Roswaal asks Rem if she knows who is behind the manipulation of the monsters.

Ram said it was the little girl with purple hair among the children, but the little girl with purple hair had already run away.

Roswaal shrugged, seemingly indifferent:

"Ah, anyway, it's all related to Wang Xuan."

"First a gut hunter appeared, and now a monster tamer has appeared."

"It seems we're being targeted by troublesome people."

Ram did not believe that being targeted by these people posed a threat to Roswald.

Afterwards, Roswaal replenished Ram's magic.

Roswaal looked out the window, his gaze different from his previous frivolous expression.

"To achieve my goal, I must win the royal selection."

"For the day of slaying the dragon."

In the courtyard at night.

Emilia was puzzled by Subaru Natsuki's constant injuries.

"Speaking of which, Subaru really is always getting injured. He came to this mansion to recover from his injuries, and it's only been four days."

Natsuki Subaru felt somewhat helpless; if he had any other choice, he wouldn't want to do it this way either.

"I don't want to get hurt either."

"But how should I put it? This world has been a bit too harsh on me."

"So at least Emilia-tan lets me act cute!"

"Don't try to fool me!"

"Parker, too, desperately tried to stop me from going to you guys. If Roswaal hadn't come back in time, I don't even want to think what would have happened!"

"But I've been helped by you once again."

"I brought you here to repay your life-saving grace."

"Yet I've received your kindness once again, but... thank you so much!!"

Natsuki Subaru blushed slightly, smiled, and waved his hand, indicating that this was also something he wanted to do.

Emilia felt she couldn't just let it go like this. Subaru Natsuki had helped her so much; she had to do something to repay him!

Natsuki Subaru then asked Emilia to go on a date with him.

"Dating?"

"It's about two people going to the same places, seeing the same scenery, and eating the same food!"

Subaru Natsuki was already very familiar with this line of reasoning.

After all, he had invited Emilia many times before, so at least this time, Natsuki Subaru wouldn't be nervous when he was invited... probably!

……

Beyond the celestial canopy, inside the Tower of the Sages.

Emilia felt a pang of sadness as she looked at Subaru Natsuki on the screen.

Clearly, this agreement was made a long time ago.

Natsuki Subaru had invited him more than once, but because of the rewind of death...

She had no recollection of Subaru Natsuki's expectant gaze and smile from before.

After experiencing several deaths and rewinds, the only thing that remained for Subaru Natsuki and was remembered by Emilia was this segment played on the celestial screen.

"Subaru... thank you... you've worked so hard..."

Emilia murmured softly.

……

[Ah... this is getting a bit boring. The content for the next part is familiar to everyone, so I'll skip it quickly!]

The images on the screen began to play at double speed, as if at twice the normal speed.

However, what was shocking was that the content played on the screen was played at a significantly faster speed, yet these images were deeply imprinted in everyone's minds.

It's amazing.

The following content is roughly about Subaru Natsuki and Emilia going to the village for a date.

After thinking about it, Natsuki Subaru realized that his role wasn't as significant as he had imagined.

Natsuki Subaru during this period was undoubtedly insecure, to the point of being arrogant.

When the two returned to the mansion, they found an unfamiliar dragon carriage and Wilhelm, whom Natsuki Subaru had never seen before at that time.

This is because of Wang Xuan's matter.

Emilia is about to be summoned to the capital.

During this period, Subaru Natsuki may have regained his confidence, even becoming somewhat arrogant, because he resolved several crises using his ability to return from death...

Subaru Natsuki expressed his desire to go to the royal capital with Emilia.

Emilia knew just how dangerous the capital was and did not intend to let Subaru Natsuki go with her.

Natsuki Subaru knew this, which is why he wanted to go with Emilia.

They probably believed that with the ability to return from death, any crisis could be easily resolved...

Perhaps knowing there was a hidden danger in the capital, Subaru Natsuki wanted to protect Emilia, and he wanted to prove himself...

Emilia didn't want Subaru Natsuki to get involved, so she refused him.

Rem, standing by, promptly offered a suggestion: Subaru could take this opportunity to return to the capital and express his gratitude to those who had helped him.

Roswaal also said that because of these experiences, Subaru Natsuki's magic gate has dried up, and he needs to go to the royal capital to find Felix for treatment.

Reluctantly, Emilia agreed to go to the royal capital with Subaru Natsuki.

Upon arriving in the capital, an "uninvited guest" appeared.

It was Julius.

Julius greeted Emilia with utmost elegance and politeness.

He then took Emilia's hand and gave her a very standard hand kiss.

Natsuki Subaru instantly became extremely jealous, like a cat with its fur standing on end.
