Chapter 4: It seems that I Immediately got into Trouble

Doesn't the idea of two light sources seem dazzling?

After diving into the gate of light that appeared beside the little girl proclaiming herself as god, Renya, after practically no time lag, noticed himself standing somewhere in a forest, near a path that seemed to be well-tread on.

As the sides of the road became a deep forest, one could only see trees. However, above the road, the sky was clearly visible. Renya realized that where he was underneath that blue sky was a completely different place to the 94 years that he had spent his life in. This was instantly understood as two suns emitted a blinding light as they shone.

As the reality of there being two suns in the sky resulted in Renya receiving a large shock, as the color of the sky was the same blue color as the one from his memory, it simultaneously gave Renya a slight sense of relief.

As the color of the sky in a different world could equally have a chance of being, say, purple, either Renya would accept the reality before his eyes, or his spirit would become abnormal. Such an unwelcomed chicken race between which of the two would occur first may have been planted.

Thinking such thoughts, Renya began to survey his surroundings. Even though Renya was ignorant about tree species, he noticed that things such as the trees hue would not change so drastically with his original world.

It had been determined that to some extent, Renyas common sense was still valid. Learning such was something significant for Renya.

Although his memory had been cleanly and refreshingly initialized, the experience ingrained into his body and his common sense was not so easily discarded.

On his body were short, clean white clothes and pants as well as modest shoes. He noticed that he was not wearing any kind of armaments.

Speaking of which, I didn't check how dangerous the designated world was.

Among them, Renya touched a money-like icon with his fingertip, causing information to flow into his head.

Currency: 10 Gold Coins

It appeared to be as it seemed. It was money.

He somehow understood that this was a parting gift from God. Wondering what the other icons contained, Renya continued to check through each of them one by one.

Cycling through his inventory window, Renya discovered that he had 10 gold coins, 12 packages of portable food, 6 Basic Wound Medication, 3 rolls of bandages, 1 Shinai(1), 1 set of leather armor, and 1 canteen which he could fill with water.

Although I can understand the leather armor, why a Shinai?

As Renya thought thus disappointedly, he lightly double tapped the inventory icon. As the item retrieval dialogue box emerged, Renya unhesitatingly chose the two equipment items.

As the Leather Armor icon disappeared from the inventory, Renyas body slightly began to glow.

When the light settled, armor that protected the body appeared above his clothes. In addition, gloves that covered his arm from his elbow to his wrists were equipped onto Renyas body.

This seems to be a set.

Although Renya was dissatisfied due to his head and lower being unprotected, he convinced himself that, since it was something given to him, he could not expect too much as he began to equip the Shinai.

There was no spin on this one. This was without a doubt the Shinai that existed in Renyas knowledge.

It was 3 foot 8 inches(2)long, this length being referred to as Sanpachi. Although it was a size that was usually used by large people, the Shinai was considerably longer than average. Even so, it was light and could be swung around easily enough. Renya thought that it would probably be more useful if it was longer.

Even so, as Renya held it, he felt unsatisfied with the explanation for some reason. Following this, another message flowed into his head.

INFO: Help Initiated. Although I was supposed to give you a bladed weapon, as the weapons attributes were all Grade 10, the Angels rejected every single one. As you had experience with Kendo when you were alive, I thought youd skilled at it, thus it was decided that the Shinai is something that would be passed to you. From God

Rather than a Help function, isn't this just a normal mail?(3)

Renya: First things first, unless I find some human habitat, I wont be able to get started.

Renya: I guess theres no choice but to put up with it. I kinda wanted to be dropped in a more convenient place. Shes completely thoughtless, the Loli bitch...

Renya: Ill entrust it Bootaoshi(4), although this is a pretty overused saying, huh.

Renya: Now then, I wonder which way it will fall.

Renya: What are the chances(5)

Such thoughts crossed Renyas mind. At such a rarely seen situation, no one would be in a position to blame him if he were to carefully observe. Such thoughts naturally came to him.

As Renya himself had died at age 94, he thought that it would be alright to just walk between life and death just a little longer.

The figure of Renya approaching at a considerable velocity seemed to be immediately noticed by the people on the site.

Although the surrounding men grew slightly wary, their expressions immediately became slack as they scoffed.

The surrounded women had slightly smiled, yet, their expressions immediately turned to those of disappointment.

Although Renya headed towards the site, it suddenly turned into a pity-fest for Renya. However, as it was too late to change direction, Renya continued running.

Renya could understand their expressions to some extent.

Concerning the men, they were vigilant for a moment as they thought their enemies may have increased. Yet, upon seeing Renya, they soon determined that he was not enough of a threat.

On the other hand, the women saw a sign of help. However, upon seeing Renya, they presumed that the chance of them being saved was low.

As he was in poor leather armor and held a sword made of bamboo, Renya comforted himself by saying that such thoughts were unavoidable.

Renya noticed that there were more pressing issues than such a thing. He came to a halt a short distance from the men and women, lightly clearing his throat as he raised his voice.

To Renya, who had spoken in a nervous voice, one of the men answered.

What Renya had been worried about, was whether or not conversation in another world could be established.

Among the various skills that Renya obtained from the little girl, he remembered that Another Worlds Language was one of them. Even so, he was still anxious as the fact that he had yet to actually use it remained.

In the event that he couldn't use another worlds language, as Renya did not know a single otherworldly word, it would look like he would be unable to establish conversations in this world. Thus, he spoke quite nervously. However, to his surprise, the meaning of Renyas words seemed to have reached them.

This was because the words that came out of his mouth, were words that Renya had never heard before.

Even so, as he was able to learn and use the language, he was able to discern and understand what the other person was saying.

In contrast, as Renya attempted to pronounce words from his previous world, he was surprised as he realized they wouldn't come out of his mouth.

It seems that this effect was most likely caused by the skill Another Worlds Language.

Whether this was convenient or not, Renya could not properly judge at this time. Yet, for the time being, as he did not have to concern himself with his word use, he felt that this was a good result.

Renya had silently sank into deep thought after he had burst in with tremendous momentum. The men, determining that Renya had become intimidated by the surrounding situation, all raised rowdy laughter.

Not giving a damn about such laughter, Renya began to observe the women who were surrounded.

Both were women of peerless beauty that would never be seen in his original world.

The woman in the priest outfit had gently wavy hair with large, green eyes that emitted a slightly droopy feeling.

What covered her whole body was an outfit based on black, very similar to the clothing worn by those with the occupation of Sisters in Renyas original world. However, as the clothes had no adornments, it felt like gentlemens desires were stuffed into it. The expression of hour-glass body(10)came straight to mind when looking at her body, and the interior of the clothes seemed to strain the body as it was quite tight.

No matter how you look at that, isn't it about one or two sizes off?

Renya muttered thus under his breath. Either way, the men uniformly had dark skin and, although they had a better build compared to Renya, he confirmed that they only equipped leather armor similar to his own.

Yet, oddly enough, Renya did not feel that they were armed.

All of them were barehanded.

Although theyre six of them, wouldn't the armed, black-haired woman be able to do something about this?

Hakama Woman: I dont know who you are, but run away! These guys are uncontrollable!

Renya: Eh, is that so?

Hakama Woman: These guys are soldiers of the Mercenary Kingdom! Dont worry about us! Run away!

Man: Oi, you. Were busy. As thered be no meaning in taking those pitiful clothes off your back, if you just turn around now, Ill pretend you were never here.

Renya: Nn~(12), although thatd be fine, do you really think that Id be such a person whod just turn away from here right now?

Renya: Ah~, right. I guess you guysd be fools with lewd minds.

Man: The hells this guy saying? Youre jealous so youre trying to mingle? If you want, Ill give you a shot?

As Renya thought such, he spoke the fatal words towards the men.

Oh dear, what should I do?

Man: I dare you to say that again!

Renya: Whats your problem? Wouldn't such pitiful rods break after a single touch?

Man: The hells this, you bastard!?

Renya: Ill let grab it. Ill thoroughly beat you to a pulp afterwards so prepare yourself.

Man: Are you a fucking idiot!? As if that stick would be a match for us!? And you said that youll let us grab it? Do you really think you can beat us up after were done with you?

(Another) Man: Has this guy lost it?

Man: Being stupid is amusing! Alright, Ill grab it so start regretting your stupidity.

Man: There you go, I grabbed it!

Man: Eh?

Renya: This is a sword, not a stick. It doesn't matter what its made out of.

Man: Bastard, this...

Renya: Im not sure if you can even hear me now.

Renya: Even though it looks like this, it is a weapon. This has the proper capabilities to kill. The reason the thrust techniques is prohibited up until a certain age is not just for show.

Renya: For the most part, I was wondering how you guys were gonna try and hit me but, to think there were actually idiots who would fight barehanded against someone with a light, non-bladed weapon. Before belittling people, you guys would be better off if you just thought a little.

As Renya noticed he might have committed the act of murder, he noticed that his feelings were completely undisturbed.

Without even batting an eye, Renya overlooked the six men. Renya simply shrugged his shoulders as he thought his way of thinking was amusing.

The paragraph about the Shinai was knowledge learnt a long time ago when I learned Kendo.

Its so dangerous that one is prohibited to use it until high school.

Although there are brutes that gleefully pick up the technique as soon as they become a high school student...the reality is, they use it in places without armor, though
