Isekai Tensei - Kimi to no Saikai made Nagai koto Nagai koto Volume 1 Chapter 31

Thanks for reading~

I didn't think being liked by women would be this troublesome.
No, in this case, I should call it being liked by children.
Taking the chance while I was delivering, I decided to show Ura around the town, so we’re walking side by side.
She forcefully made me hold hands with her, but whatever.
For some reason, Forna is also accompanying us and holding my hand on the other side, but whatever.

I’m delivering, but since I usually carry the wooden carrying box with levitation (floating), there's no problem even if my arms are occupied.

"Fuuu! Fuuu! Fuuu!" (Forna) (TL Note: Just my guess on who's making which noises.)
"Kishaaa!" (Ura)

But like, could you stop intimidating each other by breathing roughly from your noses while I'm in between you two.
Are you guys cats? Rather, you guys are the same age, so try and get along with each other.

"This is the bookstore. Well, I don't study, so I don't come here much." (Velt)
"Fuuu! Fuuu! Fuuu!" (Forna)
"Garururururururu." (Ura)
"And that place is the butcher. If you get along with the uncle there, he'll let you eat ham and stuff to sample food." (Velt)
"Girigirigirigirigiri." (Forna) (TL Note: Grinding sound of teeth.)
"Guruu, garuuu!" (Ura)
"And then, that place is the weapon shop I go to from time to-." (Velt)
"Fushuuuuu!" (Forna)
"Guuuuuuu!" (Ura)

My patience was at the limit.

"Cut it out already, you guys! Stop fighting!" (Velt)
"Ouch." (Forna)
"Uu, Ve, Velt, what are you doing." (Ura)

It's my first time for a delinquent like me to warn someone to stop fighting.
But you know, these guys hate each other too much.
I separated my hands from both of them and hit their heads.

"Look, alright~. Forna, you're probably jealous because I was taken, or because I'm looking after Ura or something, but considering the situation, isn't there no helping it? She's alone, so I need to do something about her." (Velt)
"Uu, uu~, I, I understand. You are correct, but isn't there a slightly better way of saying I am jealous, since you are the person himself…………" (Forna)
"Ura, that goes for you too. From what I've seen, Forna has really liked me since before, so don't provoke her that much. In the first place, just because I decided to be bi~t of help to you, isn't it weird to be so clingy to me?" (Velt)
"Gu, Ve, Velt, I'm thankful you aren't dense, but you really have no delicacy! Sor, sorry for falling head over heels for you so easily, but it can't be helped!" (Ura)

Good grief, this is why brats are troublesome.
That reminds me, there was a time when someone said "when I grow older, I'm going to be your bride, Ryuuma-kun," in kindergarten, but that person would completely ignore if they saw me after growing up.
This is really troublesome.

"But Velt, exactly because I can understand the feelings that woman has for you, I cannot be patient!" (Forna)
"She's sly! While knowing the feelings I have for you, she's trying to monopolize you" (Ura)
"Monopolize? That is only natural! Velt is mine!" (Forna)
"Wrong! He became mine since yesterday!" (Ura)

How can you guys do this in public…… ahh~, no more, I want to go back.

"Good grief………… hmm?" (Velt)

Huh? Now that I think about it, this is weird.
The guys from the royal capital that would usually be teasing Forna and I aren't saying anything even though there is such perfect material here?
No, they're looking, but every single one of them are whispering with each other from far away……

"Hey, look. Apparently that girl is the daughter of that demon."
"You're right. She really is a demon. How scary."
"I heard Velt brought her along, but this really is a problem. What are we going to do if this country gets aimed at by demons now."

Ahh~, so that's what it was.
I knew the atmosphere, and the looks the people of this town gave Ura well.

"Well you know~, I want to trust what Velt said~, but a demon is kind of~."
"Bolbardie was destroyed the other day, so I’m a bit scared."
"It would be fatal to children even if they just play together a little, so I definitely won't let her get close to my child."
"Yeah. I want the king to do something as well. Is he not going to deliver her to the demon country, or at least leave her with humanity's great allied forces?"

Listening carefully, I could hear everyone having negative impressions of Ura.
There's no helping it.
I've also experienced it.
Their eyes are the exact same as my cla.s.smates the moment I entered the cla.s.sroom, after Kamino forcefully made me go to school.
'A troublesome person. I don't want to have anything to do with them. Can't he just go somewhere?' That kind of thing.
But in my case, because I had the existence called Kamino, the guys in my cla.s.s who looked at me with those kinds of eyes gradually changed, and by the time I realized it, I was able to go to school normally, and everyone greeted me normally as well.
When was it that it became more obvious? I think it was around after the athletics festival ended.

"I see, that's true. Ura's situation is incomparable to mine, but even so, the fact that I understand her is one good thing." (Velt)

I just have to do what she did for me.

Kamino. Just like what you did for me, I'll try it too, although the method is different.

How was I able to fit in the cla.s.s in the athletics festival?
Why did Samejima end up high fiving me?
It's simple. We just have to make a common enemy.

"In the first place, although you are a demon, you are going to live in this country from now on, so you should have a bit more modesty!" (Forna)
"Shut up. In the first place, you're a princess, so you should go marry some n.o.ble, rather than a commoner like Velt." (Ura)
"We are both in the whole country authorization!" (Forna)
"S, stop! You have people other than Velt! But I only have Velt, so can't you just give me Velt!" (Ura)
"I will definitely not! I am angry now!" (Forna)
"Y, you're just being self-important!" (Ura)

If these two make a common enemy, they wouldn't become close friends, but they should improve to some extent.
This is the 'bitter enemies in the same boat' strategy.

"You guys better cut it out already, or I'll hate both of you!" (Velt)
"Eh, wha, eh!" (Forna)
"Wha wha, what! This, this is!" (Ura)

Both of them became surprised.
The people of this town became surprised as well.

"If you keep that up, then you're just ten years too early to make me fall in love with you small kids." (Velt)

It's because Forna and Ura, who were about to have a grappling fight, suddenly floated in the air.

"Thi, this is, fly (aviation)? No, this is different!" (Forna)
"No way, Ve, Velt, what the h.e.l.l did you do!" (Ura)
"What, I'm just giving the tomboys punishment." (Velt)

I cross over my hands. With just that, the two floating the air collide, and hit each other's head.

"Gya, ouch, Velt, is this your magic!" (Forna)
"Guh, what is this, something is happening!" (Ura)

Both of them are floating in the air and are unable to move.
I guess their minds are filled up with trying to figure out the situation?

"I only have one magic I can use, right?" (Velt)
"What are you saying! The only magic you were able to use was levitation (floating)!" (Forna)
"Kuh, however, even if levitation (floating) can move objects, it shouldn't be able to float living things." (Ura)

Correct. Floating (levitation) can float things you touch. (TL Note: Author didn't put levitation as ateji this time and actually put it in brackets)
However, it couldn't float humans, demons, animals or any living things.
But there's no need to specially do that. Basically, I just have to move objects.
I simply floated the clothes they are wearing, and the two are floating while being hooked onto it.

If they didn't think of that, then that in itself is a steal.

"Guh, either way, this is embarra.s.sing! Velt, let me off already!" (Forna)
"More like, quickly, um, my skir, skirt is…………" (Ura)

With flushed faces, they are fidgeting while pus.h.i.+ng down their fluttering skirts.
Will they be a bit quieter now?

"There." (Velt)

I clicked, and cancelled levitation (floating)
That action isn't actually needed, but I do it because it's kinda cool.
Then, they lost the floating power and fall straight onto the ground from the sky, without being able to ukemi.

"Gyafu!" (Forna)
"Ouch ouch, how, how dare you." (Ura)

I see. Although they are children, it worked on these child prodigies. This power is unexpectedly quite useful.

"How was that? Have you learnt your lesson now? Stop fighting over such stupid stuff. Also, I'll tell you one thing, but rather than a noisy brat, I like cheerful idiots." (Velt)

Well, it might end up just stirring their anger……

"-Tsu, Ve~ru~to~." (Forna)
"Even though you're just Velt, how could you be so rude to me." (Ura)

Ahh, they're glaring at me. They're both glaring at me with eyes filled with anger.

"Velt, that was going a bit too far! Let me punish you! As a man, it is horrible to be violent to your wife!" (Forna)
"Velt, you're going too far with the poor treatment you're giving to your bride, you know? Let me educate you!" (Ura)

They really do act in harmony. I didn't think they would follow my expectations this easily.

"My my, you guys really are some energetic brats. The ones that are actually going too far are you guys. Like, punis.h.i.+ng me? Just try it, you little kids." (Velt)

I'll mock them for a bit more………… not. I guess I'll make them take responsibility.

"Please don't treat me like a child!" (Forna)
"Don't treat me like a child!" (Ura)

Both of them started running at me simultaneously. However, I once again floated them in the air with levitation (floating).

"Here I go, fuwa fuwa time!" (Velt)

I always carry around two batons with levitation (floating), that are fifty kgs each.
Since they both just have the bodies of brats, I can easily float them with their clothes. However,

"T, the same trick will not work twice! You should learn your place!" (Forna)
"How long do you think you can stop me! Learn your place!" (Ura)

At that moment, a shock ran through my hands.
This means that my magic was forcefully cancelled because their resistance was too strong.

"O maiden of the G.o.d of thunder, change the tears you clad to power, infinite thunder, s.h.i.+ne the world!" (Forna)

The air is rippling, and it hurts.
A flash pours out of Forna's body, and her whole body sparks while being wrapped in gold lightning.

"Kooooooooooooooooo!" (Ura)

Ura concentrates her mind into karate, and I can see she’s clad in a visible aura of brawniness.
And then,

"Madou Heisou, Jinrai Retsuha!" (Forna) (TL Note: Magic Armament, Thunderclap Extreme Champions.h.i.+p?)

What, what is that? Madoo heesoo? Ah, I feel like I've heard it before.
It's not releasing magic, but it's a technique where you unify attack and defence by wrapping that enormous energy on yourself, was it?
But because it's too advanced, it's rare enough that not even the teachers can use it, and it's one skill for a magic battle.
When I was Asakura Ryuuma, I feel like I saw it while reading manga in the convenience store.

"Katsu!!!!" (Ura) (TL Note: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katsu_(Zen))

Ura, you can't just do that.
Erasing the opponent's magic with a yell in a world of magic, like, wouldn't you feel sorry for the magician?

And so, my magic was easily broken.

Like, you guys…… I'm sorry…… niichan was being childish, so forgive me.
No matter how you look at it, isn't that kinda like what you would call the strongest mode?

""Now, Velt! It's time for your punishment (desuwa) (da)!!"” (Forna (said 'desuwa') and Ura (said 'da'))

I'm glad. Now you guys are fellow close friends.
Rather, do you guys know the situation you're in? This is inside the town, you know?
How do you not realize the scream's of the people in the town?

"What is it, what the h.e.l.l is going on!"
"The, the princess and the demon child are angry or something!"
"Gyaaa! The static electricity is!"
"Be, because of that demon girl's scream ri, right now, my knees, my knees gave in."

By the time I realized it, the reactions of the people in the town went from, "so that's a demon huh. What a troublesome person," to, "she seems to be angry about something."
Well, in its own way, this is,

"Apparently they're talking about how Velt is two timing or something!"
"Ehh! I heard that they found out he was doing as he pleases with them, so they're going to punish him!"
"I was watching from the start! Velt turned over their skirts and was grinning!"
"No, they both said they like him, but that a.s.shole said he hated both of them!"
"Velt, you're the worst!"
"It's unforgivable of you to make the princess cry!"
"He made a girl cry!"

In its own way, this isn't good at all!
I just wanted to make them angry at me, thinking that they might sympathize with each other and hit it off, but all the people in the royal capital are making me out to be the bad guy.
But well, it's that. With just one more push, it'll probably go well for Ura, so…… I might die, but……

"There's no helping it. I guess I'll play with you. Come at me." (Velt)

I said that while trying my best to look cool, but I'm dripping with sweat in my mind.
However, I have no choice but to do it.
