Chapter 3 – Different World called Overwhelming Reality

Different World called Overwhelming Reality

「Guh―― Guess you gotta believe!」

Oyamada shouted .

「Different world, hahh!? Hah, anyways stop joking around! It’s fucking boring! It’s too fucking cold! Die!」

「That’s . 」

The goddess who indifferently gives instructions to soldiers .

She did not care at all about Oyamada’s rage .

After a while a man wearing tattered clothes entered the room .

Both hands have been restrained with a chain .

The soldier accompanied the man on both sides .

The man with tattered clothes was anxious .

A soldier pokes the man’s back with the handle of the spear .

The man was forced to advance ahead .

「Wh-What is that?」

One of the girls pointed to the entrance of the room .

With trembling fingertips .

The thing that her finger shows .

It’s not the man with tattered clothes .

It is .

A three-eyed wolf .

......... .

Probably, a wolf .

It’s wearing a rough collar .

The wolf was deprived of freedom with a chain instead of a leash .

And onde soldier with a good physique is holding that chain .

Even so it’s a big wolf isn’t it...

Its color is also weird .

What’s that? n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Golden eyes and wine red fur?

「Such beast, doesn’t exist in the world where you people came from?」

「With such a color!? That’s a fake made with papier mache! Don’ joke with me! It’s cold! Die!」

The persistent Oyamada .

The goddess sends instructions to the soldiers with a glance .

「Gurururugarururu~!」

The tattered clothed man becomes startled .

He seems to have guessed something .

「Hii!? St-Sto――」

「Gaaaaa!」

The three-eyed wolf attacked the tattered clothed man .

「Kiyaaaah――――!」

A girl’s scream .

The scream got followed by a cry .

「Ge――uh, gu――e! Ugeh――!」

One person, a boy starts vomiting .

The wolf’s fingernail tears up the prey’s body .

The scream of the attacked man disappears .

The man stopped moving .

The wolf starts eating up the man’s body .

The “meal” starts while using its fangs .

A shocking spectacle .

But, what would come .

What happened next decided everything .

The goddess extends out an arm towards the wolf that’s eating .

「Holy Flame that purificates the demon, by the name of the goddess Vysis, I command you to burn down this demon――――」

Magical square-like things appear in front of the goddess .

「”Fireball of God’s life” !」(Fireball)

That instant,

The wolf was wrapped up in a fireball .

A white flame .

The wolf struffles to get out of the flame .

But, it struggled only for a moment .

In the blink of an eye it burned out, and changed into ashes .

And wafted in the air .

A burnt smell .

The burnt odor of meat .

The boys in the corner of the room start to whisper .

「T-That right now was magic right?」

「No, probably sorcery, right? 」

「Either is fine... . . 」

「I mean, this is really otherwordly isn’t it」

「Goddess-sama, was quick to show evidence riiight~」

「The effect is just too much when you actually see it」

「I mean, it’s kinda exciting2~」

There’s no sense of urgency .

I wonder why .

Maybe because it enabled a slip out from a ordinary daily life .

Such a feeling .

一The other girls .

There were some people who began to cry as well .

There’s some who sunk down in fear .

「Iyaaaaaa... . 」

「Wh-What was that just now?」

「Isn’t that CG? Anyway this is some kind of illusion isn’t it?」

「Uuu... This smell of burnt meat... disgusting... . 」

「Uaaaan... . No that’s it... I want to go home... . 」

「It’s likeー, I really can’t get itー」

One part, also seems to be enjoying it too .

But, most are pessimistic,

The teacher in charge Zakurogi is dumbfounded .

With a dropped jaw .

It looks like that famous “Mouth of the truth”1 .

Kirihara seems to be surprised as expected .

However, there’s no feeling of being frightened .

It’s a purely surprised impression .

Oyamada is... mortified .

He cannot admit the reality of the events that are happening .

But, Oyamada has accepted such reality .

After all, he was confronted .

The reality ―― the overwhelming reality .

Now, he’s just mortified .

He has such a face .

Sogou was sweating .

Probably a cold sweat .

She’s obviously shaking .

But, she was desperately trying to conceal her shaking .

She’s right now, comfoting the girls who began to cry .

It’ll surely be okay, with such words she started talking .

Since she’s the class president she needs to get herself together .

Or so she seems to think .

Sugou is courageous .

Even at a time like this .

Takao sisters are .

「Indeed . A world different from the world where ourselves lived ―――――― or thinking here as a planet, our current state is the best possible isn’t it . Then, first of all, with the assumption that here is a different world as a starting point . Let’s gather our thought and course of action . 」

「Even at such times, aneki is impressive as always...」

「You only need to think of this as a part of mental training . Instead of confusion or pessimism let’s use this time appropriately, first of all after accepting the present reality before our eyes, it’s best to spend this time to analyze and secure safety .

「Tch... After all, I’m not even close to aneki... . 」

「If training is piled, you can also do this, Itsuki」

「Understood... I will try that, aneki... . 」

Surprising as always .

With one’s own pace, to such extreme .

Especially the elder sister has a amazing attitude .

It’s like she doesn’t shake one bit .

When talking about the Takao sisters it’s like... they’re from another dimension .

Yasu is... . .

He seemed to be perplexed .

However .

I wonder why was his mouth curling up .

▽

「Follow the goddess words for the time being! If you doubt the goddess you won’t get ahead! First of all we, you should start to believe what others say!」

I wonder if the ignition of just before made everyone completely nervous?

Behind Zakurogi there seemed to be a big white flag .

The corpse of a man and ash which was originally a wolf .

They had already been cleaned up .

Now, another thing is carried to the room .

A pedestal and a crystal .

The crystal was at the position of my waist .

It seems they want us to touch this crystal by hand in turns .

Or so we were told .

It seems to measure something .
