Kyuudougi and kendougi (kyuudo and kendo clothing) generally look likeandandThe colours sometimes differ though.

Honestly, I have this feeling of discomfort ignoring double vowels, and wanted just to write kyuudou, but then going back Id have to change aikido to aikidou and dojo to doujou which just makes things absolutely ridiculous. Not really sure where I draw the distinction between word in English and romanisation of a foreign word.

If I just became a faggot of a translator and wrote everything as dohjoh or doujou would you guys understand? Even if you did, youd probably think it looks retarded, right? Yeah, I do too.

It pains me to write kyudo, it physically pains me.

Weve almost reached Latis Village.

Prince Sedrim spoke to me.

Its been two hours since the battle, and since then weve left the forest and begun riding in horse carriages left right outside.

As expected of carriage belonging to royalty. I can sit without pain even with this thin behind of mine.

It seems that the village was notified ahead of time via fast horse because the moment we entered the village we were greeted by a man who looked like the village chief, and three other men.

It seems that Your Highness has arrived safely and in good health.

The village chief (provisional title) lowered his head in a bow.

Forget about the stiff formalities. Do you have any free rooms?

As expected of royalty. Arranging this much is a simple matter, isnt it?

Yes sir, we have prepared them as you instructed. Please come this way.

The village chief (provisional name) began to lead us to a building that seemed to be an inn.

Theyve got their jobs split up, havent they?

Eh? My wound, you ask?

I thought that they would easily heal me with magecraft, but contrary to expectations, it ended with medicine being applied and then a bandage.

When I asked, Couldnt you have healed it with magecraft?

There arent many who can use magecraft. The only ones who can use it are priests and a fraction of magi.

is how it turned out.

Fortunately, my wound was not severe, and with this medicine applied, it seems it will heal after about a week. Hooray for Fantasy.

Has it been perhaps four hours since Ive been guided to the inn and entered the room they designated?

Im about to head to the princes room and confirm various things.

As youd expect, I didnt have to share a room with the all-male knight squad.

My dougi is a white top, and a navy hakama.

Though my uniform is mostly dry, but it feels unpleasant wearing half-dry clothing, so just having my dougi is much better.

I quickly took off my summer sweater, and just as I had taken off my sodden uniform, my hands suddenly stopped.

Even my underwear is soaked, isnt it? What should I do?

As youd expect, I didnt go as far as to have a change of underwear prepared.

Umumu, having said that though, its extremely difficult to stay in these sodden undergarments.

I stared at the dougi for five minutes.

Well, the dougi is thick too, so it should be all right, shouldnt it?

After all, Im not particularly going to be moving around today, and after this Im only going to be speaking to the Prince and the others, eating dinner, and then going to sleep. There shouldnt be any particular problems.

After this, Ill talk to the owners of the inn and have them wash my undergarments.

After all, as youd expect I have some qualms about just drying them and putting them back on, you see.

After finishing some simple preparations, I promptly headed to the princes room.

Its a mystery.

While thinking about such things, I immediately arrived at the room the prince was in.

Well, its only three doors down from mine though.

Prince Sedrim, its Sakura. May I enter?

After I knocked, I called out as such.

Please.

I could hear from inside the room the voice of a man other than Prince Sedrim.

Please excuse me.

I answered, and then opened the door.

Its fine, please sit.

Prince Sedrim called out to me, and I sat down on a chair nearby.

Besides Prince Sedrim, there was a well-groomed ojisama who appears to be over 30.

Hes our knight squads squad captain, Raias Or Olford. This is Sakura Fujino.

The prince introduced us both.

Im Raias.

Im Sakura Fujino.

We exchanged only our names. Its a simple greeting, isnt it?

Well then, this is cutting straight to the point but

The prince began to get into the topic, but I had something I was wondering about that I wanted to verify first.

Prince Sedrim, before we start, there is something that I would like to confirm first.

I started the conversation with this.

If I clearly ask about the thing thats been on my mind, the questions for later will decrease too, wont they?

Hmm, what? If its something I can answer, then I will.

Thank you very much.

Despite being interrupted while he was talking, he doesnt seem to particularly mind. Not bad, Prince.

By the way, the other person, Raias, moved his eyebrows for just an instant. You still have a ways to go, dont you?

First, would it be fine to interpret the Sobure in your name as the name of this country?

Its something Ive been wondering since the prince introduced himself.

Thats right. This country is the Kingdom of Sobure. Its a nation where the highest ranking person is the king.

I see. Its really just as I thought.

Meaning that the name of this world is

Then, the second point. Is this world Alselia?

If this is Alselia then

Feeling a little nervous, I asked the prince for confirmation.

It is. This world is Alselia, and is a world created by the one and only god of the same name.

I knew it

Meaning that the reason that I can communicate is I see, is that how it is?

I understand. Those are the points that I wanted to confirm.

I see Youve asked some pretty strange things, but could it be that from your question just now, youre not a person of this world, Sakura? But then why would you know the name Alselia?

The prince was mumbling to himself about something.

Yes, from the questions just now, Ive understood a few things. First of all, I came from a world different to this one, for some reason or other. Second of all, is the language. This is related to your earlier question, but I know the language of this world. And it seems that up until now, Ive unconsciously switched to the language of this world. You may not believe me, but I remember my past life. No, perhaps it would be more appropriate to say that I have knowledge of it. It seems that the other life I lived was in this world.

Right, in other words, I experienced a reincarnation in another world, and then ended up tripping back into the world before my reincarnation.

When I looked to see the princes reaction, his eyebrows were brought together into a difficult expression for some reason.

You dont believe me?

When I asked him this,

Honestly speaking, I want to believe you. Well, I dont think youre lying, Sakura, but its a bit too out there, isnt it?

Well, I know what hes trying to say.

After all, even I would have a hard time believing it if somebody else told me this.

When would it be all right if I had proof of another world?

Well, if you did have something, it would probably make it easier to believe.

So answered the prince, so,

Then please wait for a moment.

I answered as such, before deciding to return temporarily to my room.
