Chapter 1.1 - Sudden Crisis
Let's Manage the Tower
Like the advice I was given in the âgarden of eternal springâ before going to Asgard, I had to calmly deal with the situation before me without even having time to check the surrounding.
Why? Because I as soon as I arrived at Asgard, explosion and tremor welcomed me.
(What!? What the heck is going on?)
I confusedly looked aroundâ¦.Nevertheless, I found the cause of explosion.
There is a one-on-one battle happening before my eyes.
Because the battle is happening a bit far from where I am, I canât confirm what kind of people(?) are battling.
Those people(?), even though they are far, are clearly not a race of people I have knowledge of.
Their figures are the same as humans but the things on their back are something humans donât have.
Both of them have things that look like wings on their back.
Though I want to get closer to verify, thatâs impossible since their battle is still in progress.
What should I do in this kind of situation? I quickly thought of the thing that was taught to me in the âgarden of eternal springâ.
I have to remember the things that I learned about Asgard. Iâm in a life and death situation.
Never thought that Iâll vanish immediately after coming here.
In this world, you can lose your life in a moment of carelessness.
While watching the battle of the two people, my ear heard the sound of stepping on grass.
It definitely did not come to those battling people but from something behind me.
I looked back to check the source of the sound.
As I turn around, cold sweat flows on my back.
Behind me is a bear that is about to attack using its claw.
And itâs not just a bear.
It is something that canât be compared to simple bears on earth. I heard that this is more violent.
Why? Because in Asgard, monsters exist.
ãUwaaaaaaã
Thatâs what I can only think of, scream.
Even if I try to escape, I wonât be able to.
Because I turned around to look at it(it was verified to be called black bear afterwards), my foot got tangled and I collapsed.
I screamed more and closed my eyes. The only thing I can do that time was to wait for that moment.
Howeverâ¦.
The impact that Iâm sure that will hit me did not arrive. All I heard is a heavy impact sound then voices of two women.
ãMy lord!!ã
ãKousuke-sama, are you alright!?ã
As I heard those voices, I gently opened my eyes and saw the black bear knocked down nearby.
And right next to it are two women, one with blond hair and one with silver hair.
Both of them has faces filled with unease.
ãA-ahhâ¦.I seem to be not injured so Iâm okay.ã
I managed to reply to the two women in a tepid manner.
The first thing I noticed is the 3 pairs, 6 wings at their back.
Though their colors are different, black and white, both are very beautiful wings.
The white-winged lady is a beautiful woman with gold eyes that gives off the vibe of an unyielding class president.
The black-winged lady is a beautiful woman with silver eyes that gives off the vibe of a gentle oneesan.
They are contrasting in many ways.
At first, I felt embarrassed because there are two beautiful girls who I never met before looking at me worriedly and somewhat looking miserable(Why do they look like that?). Then, I remember that when I was on earth, I never experienced something like this, I feel down.
When they saw me like that, they seem to have misunderstood something. The blonde woman immediately accused the silver-haired woman.
ãLook at what youâve done. You caused my lord anxiety because of that unnecessary thing(battle).ã
ãAra ara. You are the reason why that unnecessary thing took place. Why do you have to suggest that kind of thing(battle)?ã
ãâ¦.what!?ã
ãâ¦.you have a problem with that?ã
We just met but I already felt this disturbing atmosphere between them so I decided to change the topic.
ãA-anoâ¦. Thank you for helping me. By the wayâ¦whatâs with the âmy lordâ?ã
Thatâs what Iâve been anxious about since a while ago.
We just met so why would they call me something as exaggerated as that? No matter how much I think about it, I will never forget such beauties.
However, their reply did not answer anything.
ãBecause my lord is my lord.ã
ãâ¦..ehto?ã
To the puzzled me, the silver-haired woman said something outrageous.
ãThe two of us were made to assist Kousuke-sama so it is natural for us to treat you as our lord.ã
ãâ¦.eh!? What!?ã
ãAreh? You didnât hear anything about it? Since Kousuke-sama is unfamiliar with this world, Asura-sama created us to assist you.ã
(Createâ¦for something like thatâ¦.)
I never heard about having assistants.
ãThat said, my lord, please choose one of us to accompany and work for you from now on.ã
ãâ¦.eh!? Choose!?ã
ãThatâs right. You donât need to be accompanied by two in particular.ã
The two of them looked at me with eyes full of expectations.
Whichever I choose, the other one will definitely feel bad.
I now understand the reason why they are fighting earlier.
ãehâ¦..ehtoâ¦.ã
Both of them are looking at me with radiant expression.
Even so, my back is soaked with cold sweat.
(This, is it absolutely necessary to choose one of them? No, I have a feeling that I should do somethingâ¦)
I just came here so Iâm full of hesitation.
However, I canât take too much time.
I tried to speak.
ãâ¦ehtoâ¦canât I choose both of you?ã
At that moment, I suddenly felt cold but it is probably only my imagination.
ãThere is nothing wrong with that if that is what you want.ã
ãâ¦.I agree.ã
I feel like dragging this topic is bad for me because of that, I decided to change the topic immediately and ask the thing I wanted to hear from them since earlier.
ãI still donât know your names, can you tell me?ã
ãWe donât have one.ã
ãâ¦â¦wa?ã
ãLike I said earlier, we have been created for the sake of assisting you so we were not given namesâ¦.It would be nice if Kousuke-sama can give us one.ã
ãâ¦..eh? Is that so?ã
To verify it, the blonde woman nodded vigorously.
ãWe ask of you by all means.ã
Being directed by gazes full of expectations, I became secretly worried.
ãâ¦.nameâ¦â¦nameâ¦.requesting suddenlyâ¦.ã
Looking at the two beautiful women with full of expectations expressions on their faces, I realized that itâs impossible to refuse.
(Blonde hair, silver hairâ¦.should I call them sun and moon? Sun means lightâ¦moonâ¦uhnâ¦)
I tried suggesting name based on that.
ãThen, you first, what do you think of Kouhi?ã
TN: Her name is means sunlight.
I tried hearing the blonde womanâs opinion first.
ãKouhiâ¦.sun light? I think itâs very good.ã
When I saw the smile on her face, my heart felt relieved.
ãItâs my turn, right?ã
As I expected, the gaze of the silver-haired woman gave me made me nervous.
ãEhtoh, your name will be Mitsuki, what do you think?ã
TN: Her name means winnowing moon.
ãMitsukiâ¦winnowing moon. Thank you very much. From now on, I am Mitsuki.ã
ãI am Kouhi. Please take care of me from now on, my lord.ã
ãPlease take care of me from now on, Kousuke-sama.ã
The two of them gave me a really pleasant smile that almost take my breath away. I canât help but admire the smiles of these two beautiful women.
