Re:Zero: Starting from the Great Transformation

Although I can't say that I can speak fluently, I can definitely communicate and read simply.

In other words.

I have been preparing for this since a month ago.

Seeing Qixing's hesitation, I continued to persuade her:

"If you don't want to go into the city, it's fine for me to go alone, but are you really not going into the city?"

"What do you mean?"

"Don't you want to know about how we came into this world and the impact it has on us?"

"..."

So in the end, Qixing did not refuse.

She really wanted to go home.

If we want to think about “how to go back”, we have to understand the prerequisite of “how to get here”.

Therefore, she also urgently needed information about the great transfer.

The reason why she didn't make up her mind to go into the city was that she was worried about safety issues.

The world is full of dangers for her.

However, I can ask Orsted to do this.

"Is there any way for us to have basic self-protection capabilities?"

When I asked this question, Orsted gave a positive answer.

He took out many magic accessories from his arms and lent them to me and Qixing.

The so-called magic add-ons are different from magic props, and they store magic power inside.

Even people like me and Nanahoshi who don't have any magical powers can use it.

For example, there are magic add-ons that can deploy barriers, magic add-ons that can fire lasers, and magic add-ons that can negate magic of a certain attribute...

As long as you have these things, self-protection will not be a problem.

So Qixing put aside his worries and decided to go into the city together.

Orsted did not object to our decision.

It just reminds us of time.

Three days.

Three days later, we gathered near the gate again.

Travel: 4. Going into the city

The city of Ars.

Named after the brave hero who ended the First War between Humans and Demons, Ars is known as the oldest, largest, and most prosperous city in human history. Even though the novel has used as many gorgeous words as possible to describe this city, when you see it with your own eyes, you will still be amazed at the pinnacle of luxury that the medieval style can reach.

Walking in this bustling city.

Once again, I felt out of place in this world.

The same is probably true for the Seven Stars.

She pursed her lips slightly and subconsciously leaned her body towards me as she walked.

This is a subconscious behavior of seeking refuge from the surroundings when feeling uneasy.

So I held her hand.

Qixing's body trembled as if she had been electrocuted, and she looked up at me with a little surprise.

"Don't worry, I'm here."

I smiled and comforted her.

Where there is prosperity, there is order.

Patrolling guards can be seen everywhere in this city, and they are the most basic guarantee of our safety.

Qixing calmed down a little.

"Now that you've made it in, what's next? You have a plan, right?"

"Anyway, let's find a place to stay first, and then have a good sleep."

"What is that, a waste of time?"

"Rest is very important..."

I couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Although the most important purpose of entering the city is to collect intelligence, both Qixing and I are already quite exhausted.

On the surface, I can still move around every day.

It's just because the string has been kept tight.

Fatigue will continue to accumulate, and when the string relaxes or is stretched to its limit, it will burst out all at once.

As the saying goes, rest is for better work.

This statement is not meant to escape, but is based on the experience of adults.

Thinking of this, I suddenly realized.

Qixing is not mature enough.

They don't know as much about the world as I do.

To me, she should be a role like a younger sister, a junior who needs to be taken care of.

So I should take the initiative to take more responsibilities.

"all in all!"

I raised my voice and suppressed Nanahoshi's thoughts.

"I was the one who suggested entering the city. Since you agree to my plan, you must proceed according to it. Now find a place to stay first, then have a good rest for a day, and then we will start tomorrow."

"I know, I know. Why are you suddenly so loud?"

Qixing gave me a strange look, as if she didn't understand why I suddenly became so motivated.

Responsibility is indeed a wonderful thing.

Although no one asked me to look after Qixing, I am a few years older than her after all.

all in all.

Let’s support each other and move forward.

……

……

A place to stay was quickly found.

I simply walked around the city, marveling at the prosperity of Ars while asking people where I could find a cheap hotel.

Black hair and black eyes are rare in the Asura Kingdom.

At first, Qixing was worried that she would be seen as an outsider, but she soon found that no one cared at all.

But as the largest and oldest city in human history, Ars City has countless tourists, merchants and adventurers from other places every day, so no one finds it strange.

Before heading to the hotel.

I exchanged Orsted's magic crystals for coins circulating in the Asura Kingdom in advance.

In this world, magic crystals are always hard currency.

"Open two rooms and prepare two servings of food and send them to the rooms."

I slapped an Asura gold coin on the table.

The boss looked me up and down, said nothing, and quickly handed me two keys.

We found the room at the end of the corridor on the second floor.

The room was not big, but the bed was clean, and there was a table, chairs, and a separate bathroom.

Well, it can be said that it has all the necessary organs.

When I thought of this, I heard Qixing sighing.

"Why, not to your liking?"

"No... well, it's the Middle Ages after all, so that's the most it can be."

The seven stars refer to the toilet area.

Not to mention the sanitary environment, it is different from ordinary squat toilets and modern toilets.

I don't have any good solution for this.

Anyway, try to accept it.

……

After a while, the hotel staff delivered lunch to the room.

Bread, meat, vegetables similar to salad, and soup...

Neither Qixing nor I are used to the food, but it is much better than sleeping in the open air.

After lunch.

Qixing took off his shoes and threw himself on the bed, indicating that he didn't want to get up.

I couldn't help but tease her.

"Weren't you so eager to start an intelligence investigation right away? Why are you doing that now?"

"I'm tired. Let's talk after I get up."

Nanaho buried her head in the pillow, making a dull sound.

Because we have been living together in the open air for such a long time, this guy has no intention of maintaining his ladylike demeanor in front of me.

So cute.

Should we say that she is worthy of being an active JK?

"Then have a good rest. The specific plan... we can discuss it together tomorrow morning."

As I said this, I helped Qixing tidy up the scattered shoes and socks.

Then return to your room.

My room and Qixing's room are separated by only a wall.

The hotel's sound insulation is not very good, which is a disadvantage.

But on the other hand, if a dangerous situation occurs, I can just knock on the wall to notify the person next door, so I am not too worried about leaving Nanaho alone.

After returning to the room.

I simply washed up and didn't go to bed immediately.

Considering my future life, I think I should become more organized.

To put it simply, it means summarizing what happened every day and planning what to do tomorrow... Although I don’t know how much effect it will have, I will start doing it since I have thought of it.

I took out the notebook I bought in the city and spread it out on the table.
