Re:Zero: Starting from the Great Transformation

No, now is not the time to think about that.

"Welcome back."

"...Well, I'm back."

It's nice to be home.

Labyrinth Chapter: 94, Report Status

After a brief greeting.

I began to report to Qixing the general course of the trip.

Although I was supposed to report the situation, if I told her everything, Qixing would inevitably worry about me. So I decided to skip some of the steps.

For example, I omitted the process of me falling into the transfer trap after defeating the Nine-Headed Dragon.

I've already checked my statement with Rudeus before, so there won't be any problem.

……probably.

……

However, after I told Qixing what happened.

Qixing looked at me expressionlessly, and the look in his eyes was indescribably strange.

"What, what's wrong?"

"Why would you lie about something like this?"

"what?"

"You used the arm of the Undead Demon King, didn't you?"

Nanahoshi said unhappily.

"That arm was suddenly summoned away a few days ago. No one else could have done that except you, right? But the story you just told me didn't mention that arm at all. Do you think I believe it?"

"..."

Embarrassed.

I never expected to be found to have any flaws in this regard.

If you think about it carefully, that’s true!

Because Badigondi's arm was too big to carry, he asked Qixing to help make a summoning scroll, which was then stored in the laboratory and only summoned when needed.

Such a big thing suddenly disappeared.

No matter what, it's impossible not to notice.

"So, what happened? Or rather, what did you use that arm for?"

"..."

I didn't answer, but raised my right arm.

at the same time.

The dagger in his left hand swung directly down towards his right arm.

The hand raised and the knife fell, and the arm fell to the ground.

Qixing was startled by my sudden action at first, but soon discovered something unusual - there was no blood flowing from the broken arm, but muscles similar in color to Badigondi's flesh were constantly wriggling.

I calmed down a little and felt that arm.

Soon, the arm moved.

Under my control, the arm climbed onto my body little by little using the movements of its fingers and wrist.

At first, I couldn't do it. But after practicing for a while, I gradually got the hang of it, and I even felt like I had room for improvement.

Although it may not be possible to achieve the same level as Badigondi.

"look."

I controlled my broken arm and made a V sign.

Qixing looked on in amazement.

Controlling basic wrist and finger movements like this is no longer difficult for me.

But once it's too far away, there's nothing you can do.

I picked up the arm and closed it by aligning the broken sections.

Just less than a second.

The broken parts of the arm completely fused together, and the wound quickly disappeared, as if it had never been broken.

Qixing is already numb.

"W-What's going on with you? Immortal? Undead demon? What on earth did you do?"

"The situation is very complicated. Anyway, just listen to me slowly."

I scratched my head and recounted what had happened.

Having said that, it only supplemented the process of how I fell into the transfer trap. I have no idea how my body became like this or what specific changes have taken place.

After listening to my further explanation, Qixing was completely speechless.

She buried her head in her knees.

After a long silence, he said in a muffled voice:

"So, not only can you use magic now, but you also have near-immortal healing abilities? And your body has also started to metabolize, is that correct?"

"more or less."

"...Well, it's a good thing anyway. I just don't know if you can make it back to Earth safely after you become like this."

Although Qixing said it easily.

But I can tell from her expression that she is probably feeling quite complicated right now.

I left her behind again.

We came into this world together and agreed to go home together, but I have become like this.

However, this change is not what I want.

In that situation, I had no other way to survive except to summon Badigundi's arm, so I had no choice but to take a gamble.

Qixing looked me over carefully from head to toe.

From the outside, I haven't changed much from the past, but the internal structure of my body is completely different from before.

"Forget it. Even if I look at it this way, there's no conclusion. After all, I don't have any special equipment here."

Finally, Qixing sighed and said helplessly.

"Anyway, you should get some rest today, and then you can come with me to see Pergius tomorrow."

"King of Armor Dragon? Why are you going to see him?"

"First of all, the summoning magic has now been successful. As agreed, I was supposed to go see him. I also wanted him to give you a comprehensive examination to see what your current physical condition is."

"That's it..."

I nodded subconsciously.

But I quickly reacted.

"Wait, has the other world summoning magic been completed?"

"It's still a little far from being completely completed, but the basic principles have been figured out. I believe he will be satisfied with my research results."

Qixing said lightly.

Having said that, I could clearly see a hint of pride on her face.

I don’t know what’s going on recently.

I seem to understand Qixing more and more.

Although she usually has a stern face, I can always tell her mood from the subtle changes in her expression.

Am I going to become a master of mind reading?

But then again.

The magic of transferring to another world has actually achieved results.

It's much faster than expected...

If this achievement can be recognized by Pergius, according to the original agreement, it means that Pergius's treasure trove of knowledge will be fully open to the Seven Stars.

That means...

"Yes."

It seemed as if he could see through my thoughts.

Qixing pursed her lips and smoothed the hair on her forehead.

"If nothing unexpected happens, I may have to leave here and stay in Pergius's aerial fortress."

"I understand. Research would be much easier there."

"yes……"

Qixing was silent for a while.

He looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

In the end, she didn't say anything else, but just asked me to go back and have a good rest and prepare to meet the Armored Dragon King tomorrow.

That's true, but I didn't feel tired from the journey at all.

After Qixing returns to the room to rest.

I started to clean up the messy laboratory.

In addition to the things needed for research, the floor of the laboratory was also littered with some of Qixing's dirty clothes. It seemed that this guy didn't like washing his own clothes.

Did he deliberately keep it for me to wash when I come back?

Well, although it is indeed an honor to help a young girl wash her underwear, if this continues, I am really worried about Nanaho's ability to take care of herself, especially since Pergius is so particular about etiquette. After arriving at the Aerial Fortress, I hope Nanaho can pay more attention to this aspect.

and……

If it is in the sky fortress.

Even if Dulai's disease breaks out suddenly, there should be no threat to life.

……

I didn't tell Qixing about Dulai's disease.

When reporting on the situation in the transfer maze, I deliberately omitted the fact that after falling into the transfer trap, Dulai's disease attacked and he collapsed. I only mentioned that he was in danger because he was besieged by monsters.

After all, even if Qixing knew in advance, it would only add to his troubles.

There is no magic cure for Dulay's disease.

Want to solve Dulay disease.

The only way is to go to the Demon Continent to obtain Socas Grass.

on the other hand.

As long as we can successfully obtain Socasca, the problem of Dule disease can be solved.

Therefore, there is no need to cause unnecessary trouble to Qixing.

I'll do it myself...
