Re:Zero: Starting from the Great Transformation

Page 5

Books in this world are very expensive and are considered luxury goods, but paper is relatively easy to come by.

Since I have to summarize every day, I might as well...

I wrote four big words in Chinese on my notebook.

Ron's Diary

"feel good."

I gave my evaluation with satisfaction, and then began to write down what happened today in my diary in concise language.

After I finished writing, I carefully and solemnly put the diary into my luggage.

Although it's all written in Chinese and probably no one can understand it except me, I'd better keep it safe just to be on the safe side.

After doing all this.

I imitated Nanahoshi and threw myself on the bed.

The fatigue that had accumulated for a long time suddenly came out.

The whole person became unwilling to lift even a finger.

Come to my senses and think about it carefully, tomorrow I will officially start to come into contact with this world.

Am I really ready?

I don’t know, I don’t understand…

All in all, take a good rest first.

No matter what the problem is, wait until tomorrow morning to solve it...

As I thought about this, I slowly closed my eyes and let the dark tiredness overwhelm me.

But just when I was half asleep and half awake, I suddenly heard a slight sound.

"Boom boom boom——"

That is……

"Boom boom boom——"

The sound of knocking on the wall.

Almost subconsciously.

I jumped out of bed, and my tiredness disappeared in an instant.

He didn't even bother to put on his shoes and rushed to Qixing's room next door as fast as he could.

"What's the situation?"

When I arrived at the Qixing Gate, I found that the situation was not what I had imagined.

Nanaho, in her pajamas, hugged her pillow to her chest and leaned against the doorway with her lips pursed.

"Seven stars?"

I asked tentatively.

"Uh, that...first of all, I hope you don't misunderstand me."

Nanaho muttered softly as she tangled her hair with her fingertips, looking a little embarrassed.

"I just thought about it and feel that sleeping separately is still too unsafe. After all, no one knows what will happen when you are asleep. So, can you... uh, I mean, come to my room and sleep on the floor?"

Her voice became smaller and smaller, and her face became red as if it was about to burn.

"..."

Anyway, I breathed a sigh of relief.

The moment I heard the knocking sound on the wall, I really thought something had happened.

I can naturally understand Qixing's request.

I am in a strange world and wake up in a strange environment every day.

Even during this month's trip, Orsted and I were by his side. If he suddenly said he wanted to sleep alone, it would be a bit strange, right?

I wouldn't mistake this request for Qixing having any special feelings for me.

Just sleeping in the same room.

It's probably not much different from the journey I've been on for the past month.

"Then please help me move the bed and other things over there."

"Thanks……"

Qixing said in a low voice.

I smiled knowingly and rubbed her head subconsciously.

When I came to my senses, I found Qixing staring at me with a red face, as if I had done something terrible.

Travel: 5. Dream

"Um, sorry..."

"What are you apologizing for? Hurry and move your things!"

Qixing snorted lightly, turned around and ran back to the room.

"..."

I looked down at my palms, and it seemed as if there were still traces of hair on them.

I didn't resist too much...

However, as I just said.

I will not and should not regard Qixing's close attitude towards me as a special feeling. As fellow travelers stranded in a different world, what we should do is support each other and move forward.

Leave the messy thoughts behind.

I turned around and started to get busy.

By the time I had made the bed and other things on the floor, half an hour had passed.

Qixing sat on the edge of the bed, swinging her slender white legs, and her naked little feet swaying in the air, which was really cute.

I always feel that Qixing is getting more and more cute recently.

Maybe the sense of distance is getting closer.

After watching me pack up my things, Qixing pursed her lips and muttered softly.

"……Thanks."

"Hmm? There's no need to thank me for such a small thing. After all, we came to this world together as companions. We should help each other, right?"

"Companions?... That's true."

Qixing nodded with a lost look.

"After all, in this world, the only people we can trust are each other."

No, it's not like that.

In a few years, you will meet Rudeus.

Although that guy was a mess in his previous life, he will become a mature and reliable man after going through various events.

As long as it is to protect the people around him, he dares to challenge even the Demon King.

So I'm not the only person you can trust in this world.

of course.

I didn't say these words out loud.

……

It seemed as if he felt the topic had become a little heavy.

After Qixing and I said good night to each other, we returned to our respective beds, turned off the lights and went to sleep.

In the dark room, the sound gradually faded away.

The sounds of each other's breathing became clearer.

Not long after, Qixing's breathing became more even, probably because she fell asleep.

But I couldn't fall asleep right away.

In the pitch-black and silent environment, I couldn't help but fall into deep thought again:

Why on earth did I come to this world?

Who do I need to defeat, who do I need to save?

Who has the right to expect anything from me?

What am I...

What kind of mission do you carry?

Thinking about these messy questions.

Before I knew it, I fell asleep and even had a dream.

In my dream, I was walking on a street with no direction visible, and I vaguely heard someone calling my name.

"Ron! Ron!"

The sound kept ringing.

But I couldn't tell where the sound was coming from, nor could I see through the darkness around me.

I don’t know where to go.

I can only spin around in circles anxiously.

Eventually the sound grew fainter.

It was as if I was lost in the darkness, with no trace to be found.

The moment the sound disappeared.

Inexplicable regret and pain filled my chest, as if the place where my heart belongs was hollowed out, the emptiness seemed to drain every bit of strength from my body...

"Ron?"

The voice sounded again.

The vision in front of me suddenly became bright, and I tried my best to open my eyes.

"Who is it, who is calling me?"

I shouted and questioned.

"What are you talking about? I just woke you up."

Qixing asked a puzzled question from the side.

I turned my head suddenly and saw that Shizuka Nanahashi had been kneeling beside my bed.

She stared at me with a strange look on her face, but there was a deep sense of uneasiness in her eyes.

That was just now...

Dream?

I sat up in a daze.
