Town chapter 74: Intermission Komatsuna Yos.h.i.+ki 1
Author note: Although it is written as a gap, it is a necessary story like Sano's, so thank you for your consideration.
――This is the story of a person invited from j.a.pan to another world, like n.o.buhide Fujiwara, Tsutomu Sano, Masaya Nagai.
Komatsuna Yos.h.i.+ki was a small man. His body is small and his abilities such as intelligence and physical strength are also lackl.u.s.ter. Moreover, because he was so weak willed, he always had been frightened by something every day. He is a high school student and the school he attends is a base high school where anyone can enter. Komatsuna left home to go to school, while being frightened that morning.
Going to the station by bicycle, bathing in the morning sun, and then change to the train. When he checks the watch at the station platform, it's 7:15. At this time, his cla.s.smates start to arrive at the school so that they would not be on the train and Komatsuna got on the train. But rarely, it was the hated cla.s.smate who appeared on the same wagon at the next station.
(Why, why is he always late......!)
Tos.h.i.+o Aieda. His hair is dyed gold and his eyebrows are thin and his body is large. One of the students who would always bully Komatsuna. Komatsuna was horrified and quietly hid himself. While praying that he will not be found.
However, that day, at that time, the place was a moment of breakthrough for Komatsuna. ――Train derailment accident. Like many people on the same vehicle, Komatsuna was involved in the accident and when he noticed, he met an old man who called himself G.o.d in a pure white s.p.a.ce and told to move to another world.
Although there were various things with G.o.d, everyone finally accepts the current situation and the story goes on. The people who chose a card disappeared into the light in order and finally his cla.s.smate Aieda disappeared. Komatsuna was just watching everyone as they were swept away, but he wasn't calm.
(Everyone is gone. No way, will I be the last!?)
He was starting to feel more and more anxious about being left behind. However, the anxiety is tolerable. When Komatsuna suddenly blinked, cards were lined up in front of him. His turn has finally come.
(This is the turning point of destiny......!)
Even Komatsuna, who is not so smart, found out that this card selection is a critical aspect that affects his life in the different world. His teeth ticks with tension and his heart under his chest is rampant enough to seem to go anywhere. All events are unrelated to Komatsuna's intention. However, Komatsuna chose a card with trembling fingers and closed his eyes in the light like the others.
It was only for a moment that he felt the light from behind his closed eyelids. When Komatsuna opens his eyes, what is reflected in his eyes is――a field.
"This is the different world......?"
When he looks around, he can see a city surrounded by a large wall. Whatever he thinks, it's not j.a.pan.
"Come to think of it!"
Komatsuna shouted as if he had come up with something. The card from G.o.d, his lifeline. To check it once again, he brought his right hand in front of his face.
"Ah, is that?"
But there is no card there. Even though he didn't feel the card because he thought it was in his right hand, Komatsuna checked his left hand as if he had escaped from reality in the middle. Of course, there is no card in the left hand.
"A lie!?"
Komatsuna searched the ground in an unusual manner. Without a card, death is inevitable. Komatsuna who was well aware of his weaknesses understood it well. During his frantic searching, Komatsuna finally noticed something.
"Wh, What is, this. My body, something......something is wrong!?"
Komatsuna noticed a change in his own body. His whole body was full of power, and hot sensation came from the back of the heart and the bottom of the soul.
Needless to say, the cause is Komatsuna's card, [Increased Physical Strength] [Extra Large] [★★★★★★]. It is clear where the card has gone.
"Ha, Hahaha. A, Amazing......amazing! I'm not the former Yos.h.i.+ki Komatsuna! Now I'm Hyper Ultra Super Final Yos.h.i.+ki Komatsuna!"
In great euphoria, Komatsuna screamed into the unknown sky.
The place where Komatsuna was transferred to is the Initia Kingdom at the west end of the continent. ――Also known as the starting country. 『All holy things start from the west and all demonic things start from the east』 those are words are written in the scriptures of the Ras.h.i.+a religion. Holy refers to humans and creatures called holy beasts. The earth is fertile and is a pasture for giant horses, which has been considered to be a sacred place.
A few months after coming to the different world. Komatsuna lived doing hard work in Initium, the capital city of the Initia Kingdom. However, he has no personal confidence and has a thoughtful personality. At first, he didn't have enough courage to talk to someone and couldn't get a satisfying job. Forced to sell his clothing for cheap, he lived a modest life.
However, when the money bottoms out, there is no longer any chance and Komatsuna finally started to act aggressively. It was the river construction work that was said to be the toughest in that period.
River construction is the restoration work of a river bank that was destroyed by heavy rain. Since it is a job that also serves as a labor force for convicted criminals and as a tax, its painfulness and severity are not very common. However, even Komatsuna was easily adopted because it was such hard work.
However, once he got the job, Komatsuna was able to do the job without feeling any pain. Rather, he was able to do many times the work of one person and he was awed from his surroundings as a small giant.
"Oh, I'll ask you today too, little giant"
"If you are here, we have the manpower of 100 people, I'm glad to be in the same team as you."
When he comes to the embankment construction site from the morning today, many people speak to him. The word "small" was superfluous, but Komatsuna was feeling pleasant. Every time he holds a stone like a human torso, Ooo! shout of joy came out from the people and self-esteem that had never been fulfilled filled his heart.
It can be said that Komatsuna's life in a different world after work was filled with excitement every day. The only true heavy weight on his shoulders is his past. However, he doesn't have to worry about anything here. Komatsuna has obtained something that let him afford to lose his former convenient world. However, he had no way of knowing that another turning point that Komatsuna was not particularly interested in would come again.
That was when river construction began to enter the climax.
"Komatsuna, please come to the office"
As soon as the day's work was over, a colleague told him. It is a call from the work supervisor.
(I wonder what this is about?)
With doubts, when he enters a well-known digging hut next to the dam, there is a person wearing armor along with the supervisor. Not just a standard soldier. A cloak is attached, the equipment is well made, and has a dignified face with a beard. In addition, they were seen several times during today's work.
(Isn't he a great person in the country? Did he come to check the progress of the work?)
When Komatsuna bowed to the finely dressed man, he asked the supervisor why he was called.
"Your power is tremendous. It is regrettable to rot it in such a place. Today, I had the General come to recommend you to the army. Join the army and make the most of it."
No way, the great man of the country came to see him. Komatsuna had a hard time understanding the unexpected situation.
"I had a good look at your work today. I think it's really a big deal. That's why I want to scout you for the army. Of course you're not a terminal soldier, are you? For the time being, you will be a knight apprentice. And in the future you will be a knight."
Those are the general's words. Komatsuna wasn't so excited, but sadly he was a timid person. He swung his head up and down in the face of the supervisor's push and the fact that a man who was good enough to command an army came to see him. Thus, Komatsuna's military life began.
The next day, Komatsuna was taken by the general and entered the military camp. Komatsuna joined the army with noise, but the reaction from the beginning was just ridicule. It's natural to ask again and again if something is ordered. Even wearing armor isn't satisfactory and he doesn't even know how to ride on a horse. Anyway, Komatsuna was awful.
For a knight's apprentice, everyone around them is a rival to become a knight. In particular, recently there has been a declaration from the church that "Do not fight with other countries", making the world is peaceful. It's hard to take credit, and there's no need for knights. When that happens, one or two knight apprentice a year can be promoted to knights. Therefore, other apprentice knights do not loosen the slander and Komatsuna who was scouted became an easy target.
However, Komatsuna's talent was outstanding. He demonstrated his true character before long despite his small presence at first. Even without knowing how to handle weapons, Komatsuna was able to make a blow by simply swinging a long and heavy object and it was easy to tear the string by pulling the bow and amazing those who were watching him.
Before he knew it, the ridicule for Komatsuna had changed into admiration and compliments.The other apprentice knights were so powerful in their language that they thought they were stupid, and Komatsuna showed off.
Two years later, Komatsuna, who learned the minimum of a knight, including the handling of weapons, finally became a knight. In the Initia Kingdom, knights are treated the same as n.o.bility. However, Komatsuna never abuses that power.
The nature of Komatsuna is good. Like most people who live in j.a.pan, he had a common sense of morality and many of the outrages from his cla.s.smates in j.a.pan gave him a good opportunity to learn about human pain.
In j.a.pan, Komatsuna, who was suspicious of fundraising suspected "Is this a scam?", but in this world, he often gave it to someone who suffered from poverty. He also appealed to the seniors to manage those who were hungry and went to those who hara.s.sed the people by vicious acts and gave them the judgment of law as a knight. Therefore, the people in the town praised Komatsuna for the first time, and he received a good reputation from his fellow knights. Thus, it can be said that the knight life of Komatsuna was very good.
But not everything was well. Komatsuna was in conflict with the common sense of this world. In this world, the value of life is too light and people die easily.
A knight often witnesses it in his job. The death of a person. Komatsuna distorted his face every time he saw someone's death. In addition, it is the knight's duty to defeat enemies of the country. His hands shake when killing people. This is nothing but a shame for a knight. It was Komatsuna who was rumored as a cowardly knight by the knights as entertainment.
(If the people whose lives I took were born in j.a.pan, and not in this world, they may have lived happily without doing bad things.)
Komatsuna sometimes thinks so when he can't sleep at night. Each time, severe pain as if his chest was pierced with a cone attacked Komatsuna. It can be said that it was the only time when Komatsuna felt the desire to return.
However, such suffering eventually became ok. The trigger was a group of river bandits, with the great river flowing from the north as their root castle――known as Vikings. The Vikings were attacking villages, and a subjugation order was given to the Knights to which Komatsuna belongs.
The Knights have been commanded by the bearded general who invited Komatsuna to the military. However, if only the result of subjugation is mentioned, it is a failure. Upon enemies' tactics, the Knights attacked an empty hideout and they were attacked by fire. The reason for the loss was that the number of Vikings was larger than expected and organized. In addition, it is highly likely that there were those who leaked information to the Vikings in the kingdom.
A bright red flame wrapped around them and the knights were wrapped in smoke. However, there was one place where the hands of the fire was weak. Even though he knew it was a trap, the general moved there.
However, what should be said is the enemy's melee. Arrows poured down like rain and the army was partially destroyed. Even the general was pierced by an arrow and breathed his last breath.
Under such circ.u.mstances, only Komatsuna opened the b.l.o.o.d.y path with his power. Next to his allies being killed, he killed his enemies who begged for their lives, by tearing up their flesh, breaking bones, crus.h.i.+ng their heads. He killed them. The death of the friends who he laughed together removed the hesitation from Komatsuna. When the Knights broke out of the enemy siege, less than half still stood.
Returning to the capital, Komatsuna was recognized for his achievements in saving the Knights and took over the role of the general who died in this subjugation. Komatsuna was a.s.signed as the left general, one of the three generals of the Holy Knights. The Holy Three Generals are generals directly under the king, consisting of the previous general, the left general, and the right general. There is no other general and only the king is above them. It is the strongest line of the Initia kingdom with the king as a post-general without a person to protect in the center. It was unprecedented in the long history of the Initia kingdom that a young man less than twenty years old was placed in one corner of such a general position.
It can be said that Komatsuna's busy time after receiving the general rank is not half-hearted. His situation as a general was that Komatsuna, whose mental skills weren't very good, was able to work with his friends to do business again. Furthermore, as a humiliation of the previous defeat, the Viking re-subjugation strategy was executed, which spurred its business. Speaking of the results of the subjugation strategy, the vikings were annihilated by Komatsuna's urgent effort like a fierce lion. It seems that the small eastern countries were involved in the Vikings from the back, but it was annoying that no bold action could be taken by the declaration of Ras.h.i.+a Religion.
In the meantime, four years have pa.s.sed since he came to this world. At this time, Komatsuna was used to work and was able to take a break once a month. Today, he uses his vacation to visit the orphanage in the town where a church sister is working.
"It's been a long time since I 've been here. I wonder if everyone is doing well."
After those words, Komatsuna opened the door of the orphanage. In the chapel right after the entry, young people are practicing reading and writing, and older people are doing needlework to add to the budget of the orphanage.
"Oh, that's little big brother!"
"Older brother!"
"Little big brother!"
When the children recognized Komatsuna, they rushed towards him.
"Come on, stop calling me little!"
Komatsuna that seems to be careful but not in full bloom. In the past, he often visited the orphanage, but since becoming the left general, he was busy and couldn't come even if he wanted to show his face. However, instead of being busy, he was able to save more people as a custody of the army.
"Today is......"
Komatsuna stopped his words and went outside again and this time he came in holding a big box.
"Tdah! I brought a lot of delicious fruits! Come on, let's have a snack!"
There are colorful fruits in the box held by Komatsuna. The children were pleased with their eyes s.h.i.+ning. Looking at these children, Komatsuna's heart became happy and expressed a satisfying expression.
"Speaking of which I can't see Sister."
Sister is the only adult in this orphanage and the old woman who runs the orphanage.
"Obachan is――"
"Oh, who are you?"
Someone interrupted the child's voice and called out from the entrance. Not the voice of an old woman. Wondering who it was, Komatsuna looked back――and was thrilled. It was a woman with long and beautiful silver hair in a nun costume. Just staring at her, his heart beats and the blood flow goes around and the face of Komatsuna turns red.
"Ah! Little big brother's face is red!"
"That's true!"
Children start to mock Komatsuna. But he doesn't pay attention. Komatsuna's gaze was nailed to the beautiful woman in front of him. Love at first sight. He's been caught in s.e.xual desire by seeing the beautiful women, but this is not the case. The desire of beauty stood ahead of such an evil feeling.
"Emm, who are you?"
He was spoken to. However, Komatsuna's head doesn't work as if he had been frozen. What should he talk about? Komatsuna, who has never dealt with women, did not come up with witty words. However, there is a word which has just entered Komatsuna's ear.
"Acha, this is Komatsunoniichan who is deceived."
"Look at little big brother's face. He is absolutely in love with you. Even though it's a man"
The vague voices of children. Disturbing words in it. ――Man. you're kidding? Komatsuna thought and thought that it was rude, but saw the opponent's chest in front of him.
(......Looks like there's no bulge. But there are so many women with small b.r.e.a.s.t.s. Then this time......)
Komatsuna looks at the crotch. But the nun clothes she is wearing is a loose hooded rope. There is no way to know the presence or absence of a bulge on the crotch. It is useless. He doesn't know. He doesn't think the children will lie, but that's why he feels that the person in front of him isn't a woman which is a blasphemy of beauty. Komatsuna decided to confirm it by asking the Sister, screaming in his mind, "Yes, I will do it!".
"Emm, Si, Sister?"
"No, I'm a Brother"
How? She, no, he was a man.
"Ah, that's......"
It is the moment when the first love is destroyed in an instant. Komatsuna collapsed on the spot.
"Well, I'm sorry that it became such a careless mistake."
The beautiful woman-like man apologizes. He is not bad. It is bad that Komatsuna misunderstood. Komatsuna stood up again and returned the words.
"Oh, no, this is it. I'm Komatsuna. I'm Yos.h.i.+ki Komatsuna."
"Being polite. I'm Reanis. My regards, Komatsuna."
Komatsuna with a clear p.r.o.nunciation, not Komatsuna like he said.
