◆ Viewpoint: Toono Tsukasa ◆

After she finished talking with us, Ouka greeted Gios and left.
She was a rather interesting person.
Her manner is very ordinary, the sort you could find anywhere. A bit rough, but a bright, good-natured girl.

That impression changes completely in combat.

She has no fear of fighting, and no strain.
In situations where a small mistake would mean a serious injury, she was smiling as if she were having fun.
Her technique was high, but more than that, her heart is strong.
Combat that natural isn’t something you see often.

That person will get stronger still.
I’m looking forward to sparring when she’s gotten stronger.
Part of it is that the way her heart is resembles someone I look up to.

I wonder where that person is now.
The one who defeated the Demon King. Our leader.

Kyousuke seemed to be thinking the same thing; when I looked, he was smiling wryly, which is rare for him.
I’ll ask Kanon again sometime.
I was thinking that vaguely when white mana started to swirl in front of me.
A high kiin sounded, an image gradually took shape, and a face I know appeared.

“Ah, re. Did the guest, already, go?” Continue reading →

Now then, things had settled, and I was wondering what to do about lunch.

“Thanks as always! Ah, looks like I came at a good time.”

The one who came in all of a sudden saying that was Elma.
Yes? Yes? Why??
While I was thinking that she came stomping in.
She had some kind of basket in her hands.
…Eh, surely not??
I found myself looking at Gerda.

“Ah. You looked so busy I thought you wouldn’t have the will left to cook.
I asked Elma for a delivery.”
“I-I… see…?”

No, when?
Because after Gerda joined she had been moving around quite busily too?
Was it when she went to draw tap water!?
Or before she joined!?

Hmm, formidable… but it was also true, honestly, that it helped.
I would receive it gratefully.

“Then let’s have lunch.
Um, Elma, could you bring it over here?”
“Sure, over here.” Continue reading →

◆◇◆◇◆

 

“Eh? Mizuki——you didn’t know Yachimata Alice is Isshiki Alice?”
“Isshiki Alice is who?”

Tachibana Mizuki tilted her head.

(Or rather, who are you)

Tachibana Mizuki had bought “natural-water grape juice” from the shop vending machine at Yurigahama South High and was enjoying forest bathing in the woods on school grounds when a classmate whose name she didn’t know called, “Yesterday’s match was amazing!”

“Not knowing Isshiki Alice, that’s so Mizuki~”

They can’t have known each other a month yet, but she was surprised to be told “that’s so you.”
Or rather, why is this person talking to her.
Or rather, what’s her name?
The classmate whose name she doesn’t know seems to like talking, and doesn’t stop. Continue reading →

Chapter 21: The Hero

“The Hero,” Toono Tsukasa.
Among the Ten Heroes summoned from another world, the strongest Hero in the world, holder of the blessing “God-Demon Annihilation”—a body that can stand even with the gods.
That he punched the Demon King flying with his bare hands at the final battle is a story even children know.
The picture books painted him as someone who should be called “the Hero” in the true sense: outstanding strength among the Ten Heroes, and a strong sense of justice to go with it.
At present he apparently travels the world helping people in trouble.

No fixed address, unemployed. Well, maybe that isn’t wrong.

By the way. Putting a knee to the ground and bowing your head is apparently called “dogeza.”
In the Hero’s original world, it amounts to the deepest possible bow.

The moment I heard that, I tried to do the same thing, and everyone around me stopped me with everything they had.
I went through with it anyway.

Nasti had been watching me treat for a while, but.

“Well, well. It seems the herbs will be used rather well.
Then we’ll bring more tomorrow.”

She left, saying something like a parting shot.
I had been given the minimum of recognition, I supposed.
But.

Patients did not cease after that, either.
Kira and I were turning at full speed, when it happened.

“Doctor!! This child fell in the mud and has a terrible scrape!”

A pair of women burst in suddenly, looking frantic.
One of them had indeed apparently fallen; she was a muddy mess.

…I see. With an injury like that, they come in that much of a hurry.

“I’m sorry—I’ll treat this person as urgent. Please wait a moment!!”

When I raised my voice, the people waiting nodded, looking convinced, and stayed quiet.

…I see. They accept it. I see. Continue reading →

A chill ran down Alice’s spine.

Alice, leaving it to fear, leapt backward.
A shinai mowed the place Alice had been a moment ago.

Alice could see Tachibana Mizuki cutting her own shadow in two.

She evaded by a hair.
If she hadn’t experienced life-or-death real combat in Fate Link: Legendia, she probably couldn’t even have reacted.

“Fast.”

Tachibana Mizuki murmured and vanished again.

When Alice dodged left on fear, a shinai pierced Alice’s shadow.
But Tachibana Mizuki’s thrust didn’t end there.

The shinai suddenly changed trajectory and came at Alice. Alice tried to evade by a hair, but she stepped on her hakama hem and fell hard. Falling, though, she somehow evaded the shinai.

Alice evaded Tachibana’s vertical swing while rolling further.
Tachibana Mizuki doesn’t pursue.
In kendo you may attack someone who has fallen on their back only once.

“……Hah hah hah hah……” Continue reading →

Preparing for Enrollment

“How is it? Does it suit me?”

“”Kyaa~! So cute~!!””

A few days after the pass announcement.
This day was for buying up the tools needed for academy life.

Five women had gathered in the school store building of Romulus Academy.
Lady Ulrika and Olivia, Charlotte, Natasha.
And Queen Victoria.

Incidentally, the reason Queen Victoria was there was simply to add to the bustle.
She had run into them by chance at Romulus Castle and stuck with them as they were.

And so the five of them borrowed a room in the store building and went on with preparations.
Lady Ulrika tried on a navy blazer and spun around.

“Mm. The size is a perfect fit! I like it!!”

“It’s good, Ulrika. It suits you wonderfully!”

“Ulrika-chan is adorable. It’s lovely!”

“Is it? Thank you, Lottie, Victoria!”

“”Hauu~n””

Queen and princess, both smitten with Lady Ulrika’s cuteness.
Like mother, like daughter.

Olivia and Natasha, meanwhile, stayed still in the corner of the room.
Faced with two royals, they had completely shrunk into themselves.

“Why… why is even Her Majesty with us…”

“I-I-I’m so nervous…” Continue reading →

And then, when a new patient had come and I was examining them.

“Ye~s, excuse me a moment~… hm?”

I tilted my head at the lung sound I heard. This was, surely not.

“Oh? Is something the matter?”
“Ah, it’s all right, it will heal properly~”

I deflected with a smile the grandmother who was the patient when she asked.
But in fact, the situation was not very good.

“I’ll touch your wrist a moment.”

Hmh… the pulse is rather fast…

“Have you been eating properly?”
“Well, come to think of it, I haven’t had much appetite lately.”

There was no wheezing, no zei-zei sound, and little sputum, she said, but she got short of breath, and her chest hurt at times.

Pneumonia, probably. That the symptoms were still relatively mild was a blessing in misfortune, but if left it might progress all at once.
In older people, the symptoms of pneumonia can come on slowly and gently, and then suddenly become severe later.
And with these symptoms, I could not use the antipyretics I had on hand.
They might even make the condition progress.
In pneumonia one ought to use antimicrobials, especially antibiotics, but there were none of those.
Without X-rays or blood tests I could not even declare it pneumonia for certain…
I was still hesitating over what to do, when it happened.

“My, my. Quite the bustle. A thriving trade; I do envy you.”

A languid voice, and yet something in it pricked.
Nasti came in carrying a basket generously filled with medicinal herbs.
Dammit, she showed up, I thought, even as I answered with a polite smile.

“Ahaha~ thanks to you.”
“Well, well. So there was worth in our going about spreading the word~”

…Hm?
H-hold on? Continue reading →

◆◇◆◇◆

 

Yachimata Alice was riding the Shonan Monorail. A vehicle commonly called the “roller coaster.”

Alice is afraid of heights,——so the Shonan Monorail is Alice’s natural enemy.

“U——uuu……”

There are two reasons Alice is challenging this natural enemy even while gripping the seat rail with a bad color.

One is that she wants to overcome her fear of heights triggering when she moves on the ground in a Versus Frame.

The other is,

“Ah…… that!? Y-Yachimata-san!?”

To meet the socially anxious person she respects, who appeared fidgeting as usual——Suzusaki Suzuhi, Suu.

“G——goo……d morning———!”

Alice’s expression, even while trembling, shines a little.

“Y-Yachimata-san. Riding the monorail, are you okay!?”
“Yes, seeing Suu-san’s face made it better.” Continue reading →
