Town chapter 78: j.a.panese people living in the royal capital Dorisben
In the early summer when the greenery of the vegetation became darker, people who partic.i.p.ated in the garden party gathered one after another in the capital city of Dorisben. It is an era when there is no accurate transportation in time. Each person has plenty of time to enter the city and spend the time they want until the day of the garden party. Also, at the royal castle, those who worked in the castle that had been lazy everyday now became lively and they were making preparations steadily while thinking about a the gorgeous garden party.
However, only some people are related to the garden party. It has nothing to do with ordinary people living in the city. They were working hard as usual today.
"Water, do you need water?"
A woman was selling water in a densely populated residential area in the capital city of Dorisben. That person, who has black hair and is already over 20 years old, has a shallow face carving and depending on how you see her, she is still like a teenage girl. On the back is written "Mizuya" in the continental language. She was a so-called water seller.
"Hey, give me some water"
A middle-aged woman came out of a house.
"Yes! Thank you always!"
A seller and a buyer. The water-selling girl responded with a voice and smile that shook her fondness.
But please wait a moment. A water-selling girl doesn't seem to have such belongings other than a flag on her back. How does she sell water with this?
The water-selling girl was guided by a middle-aged woman inside the house and stood in front of large jars in the kitchen empty-handed. There are three big jars, two of which are empty.
"Are these two okay?"
"Ah, that's right. Hurry up and do it."
The water-selling girl put the fingertip of her right hand into the big jar. Then something strange happened. From that fingertip, water was released like a faucet.
Did you understand? This is the method of creating water using magic through the body――water magic.
The big jar is gradually filled with water magic. However, the middle-aged woman who was watching it is not surprised. It was a very normal thing that was not particularly noticeable on the continent.
"You, I haven't seen your face before."
Until the jar was filled, the middle-aged woman talked to the water-selling girl to kill time.
"The person in charge of this district became was ill and today I am responsible for half of this district"
"Hmm, it's hard. Even though you're young, you're a great magician. It's faster than usual to collect water? How about a recommendation? I know someone who suits you well."
First of all, the future of a person who has awakened to with water magic is safe. In times when poverty swirls, it was common to recommend one's own relatives to magic users.
"No, there are so many younger brothers and sisters that I have to feed, so I have to make money."
"Oh dear, that's hard difficult."
For some reason, the middle-aged woman immediately stopped talking. A while later, when the two large jars are full, did the middle-aged woman pay the fee and the water-selling girl goes outside on the search for new customers.
"Water! Do you need water?"
The name of the water-selling girl is Kaoruko Yamada. She was originally a high school student living in j.a.pan.
First of all, it is necessary to talk about how Kaoruko arrived in this world. The time goes back about eight years.
Kaoruko died from the train derailment accident in j.a.pan and after meeting with G.o.d, she landed in a back alley of the capital city Dorisben. Like everyone else, she was at first surprised and then looked at the current situation.
When she looked out from the back alley, there was a crowd of people, not unusual in j.a.pan. However, everything from the buildings and the clothes that people wore was different than j.a.pan, even the faces. Kaoruko finally realized that she was in a different world.
Kaoruko mourned to the current situation. After that, the next thing to think about was how to live in this world. The card that she received from G.o.d was already gone. But instead, she noticed a strange sensation inside her body.
"This......maybe, the card's ability......?"
She saw how water was released from her fingertips according to the senses. Her chosen card was 【Water Magic】【Small】【★★】. Kaoruko was able to discharge water freely.
The story changed and magic in this world doesn't require c.u.mbersome rituals such as for spells. In other words, magic is a phenomenon that occurs using one special organ in humans.
Just as the heart pumped blood throughout the body, the brain thought of something and a special organ inside causes fire, makes water and blows the wind, just as the stomach digests food. Therefore, those with this organ can use magic, but those without it can never use magic.
In addition, there are some tips for using magic. Some said that there was a sense of three behaviors when using magic. For example, there is another arm in the body, grabbing an object with that arm and throwing it. Such a feeling. It is because of this multi-behavioral sensation that magic accidents do not occur while sleeping. There is no one who can fall asleep and grab and or throw things.
"Water......Water. I may not have trouble drinking water......"
Kaoruko held her head to see what she should do with this. Water is useless. From the j.a.panese sensation, Kaoruko had a strong recognition that water is free. For the time being, there are water charges in j.a.pan, and water is not free, but she was still a high school girl. She never even knew that water has become a tremendous business in this world.
(If you can at least give more water, you may not be troubled with money instead of a fire truck......)
When Kaoruko stopped releasing water from her fingers, she thought she had to know the current situation and went to the city. She was walking through the waves of people. She could understand the words of people on the road and read the letters on the signboard. However, only those who look like westerners were around. This made her realize that she was a foreign object ent.i.ty. Eventually, when she looked around the city, she sold what she was wearing and decided to replace it with money.
"Heavy......very heavy......"
When she received a bag of coins at a certain store, she felt a weight that resonated with her heart, in addition to the heavy hand coins held another weight. Limited money. When she was in j.a.pan, she had no trouble with money. No, there was a lack of money to spend. But, if she ran out of money in this world, it means death.
(This is the weight of my life......)
She must use it carefully. While s.h.i.+vering in the fear of death right next door, she grabbed the bag of money firmly. However, the path to survival will be opened quickly.
"Water, water!"
When she got the money, she was walking around a section of inns where there weren't so many people in the streets to find a hotel. She was caught by a loud voice and there was a person with a flag that says "Mizuya" on his back. Prior to the question of whether water would be for sale, Reiko wondered that water sellers had no essential water anywhere.
"No way......!"
Kaoruko knew it intuitively. Was it an ability? Given that, the answer is self-explanatory. In other words, water is made by magic.
Kaoruko decided to follow the water seller. And, Kaoruko knew that 【Water magic ability】 was convenient for living so she waited until she actually saw how he created the water and sold it.
"Maybe my card is pretty good."
She mutters so. The fire of hope came to her heart and it became a vital force and Kaoruko's food stepped out.
"Emm, excuse me!"
Kaoruko spoke to the water seller and told him that she was a water magician and that she was having trouble living. The water seller doesn't know what to say. Water magicians are strictly controlled. The water magician guild is in control and the country holds the reins firmly.
First of all, she was allowed to see the work and after that, Kaoruko was taken to the water magician guild and received various explanations. She knew how to handle water in this world. Magic water is said to be clean, and all other water is considered dirty. The only exception is rain, which is a blessing from heaven, but no one knows when it will rain, and even if water acc.u.mulates, it will decay over time. How important is the presence of water magicians that can produce as much clean water as you need?
Her card has only two stars. However, Kaoruko thought that this was worth more than two stars. In this way, Kaoruko got the job of "water seller" and lays the foundation of her life in the capital city of Dorisben.
Now, the story goes back to the date and time just before the garden party.
"Water! Do you need water! Drink it, wash your body, it's magic water!"
Kaoruko, who sold water to the middle-aged woman, raised her voice in search of customers. This time is nothing. Suddenly, Reiko stopped her feet near the church.
――Wedding. A man and a woman were being blessed by their families and acquaintances. The newly married couple laughed very happily.
(Ah, what am I doing?)
Kaoruko's heart is in pain. She sometimes think. She is already over 20 years old, exactly 24 24 exactly years old. A good adult in j.a.pan. She may have graduated from university, worked for a company and possibly married if she was still in j.a.pan there.
How about herself in this different world? She has sold only water for eight years. Considering the good salary of a water seller, it would be a strange time to make a property. However, she does not take a lot of holidays and works every day. It was a life far from happiness.
There is a reason. The reason she has to stuff her roots live like this.
"Thank you very much for your hard work."
After work, Kaoruko stops by the guild to pay the sales, say goodbye and goes back to her own home. The place where the house is located is a parcel outside the castle. Even if it was not a poor city district, it was a residential area where the lower cla.s.s people lived.
"I'm home."
A house that is slightly larger than the surroundings. Kaoruko opened the entrance with a cheerful voice.
"Older sister!"
"Older sister is back!"
Children gathered together. Twenty people are well over Twenty people suddenly came together.
(It can't be helped――)
Kaoruko muttered to herself in her mind, as if to strike a depressing thought. That's This is a good reason. It is a good reason to live a poor life now until the minimum wealthy life is thrown away.
She couldn't abandon the children who starved in front of her. She tried to give up many times. But she couldn't do it. Because of that, even if there is a with her magical talent, it is she lives next to poverty. She had to work hard every day to make money.
"Did everyone study properly?"
Kaoruko gently calls out to the children while changing her beautiful clothes for selling water. Her voice isn't showing any frustration or dissatisfaction.
"Yeah! I did my best!"
"I learned a lot of letters today!"
In order for the children to get complimented by Kaoruko, they will report on their achievements in their own way. Kaoruko was listening while gently stroking the children's heads one by one.
It's not just for feeding them. She teaches the children letters and calculations so that they can someday stand alone.
In fact, two people left this house as a merchant's subordinate. The two sometimes come and try to leave money behind, but Kaoruko refuses it. The salary for sub-workers is known to be high.
She didn't want to make this house a footpad burden for those who left the nest. She usually makes children sour and professes, though this was the one which should be called Kaoruko's parental mind when she has younger brothers and sisters.
"Older Brother Barnet and Joshua went outside without studying."
Someone's condemned voice. Then, the group of children which gathered was split into two and looked at two people. Ten years old Barnet and eight years old Joshua. Two boys who still want to play. Kaoruko knew that some children wouldn't listen to her even if she told them to study. So she won't get angry with them. Because she knows the childhood of j.a.pan where she could do what she loved every day.
"......Older sister, this."
A fruit was presented by Joshua. It was taken out of clothes whether he was trying to hide it away from other children. It is clear that there was a thought for their older sister, Kaoruko. But Kaoruko sharpened her eyes.
"What's the matter story with that?"
Kaoruko uttered a cold voice. In the past, the children have stolen food. Until they met Kaoruko, stealing was their daily routine as they had to steal to have something to eat. So that's fine. However, Kaoruko was very angry for any reason for theft after living together.
For the poor, food is synonymous with life. If you steal it, you won't be complaining about being killed. The same is true for the general public. They see the poor as dirty. It is a habit to be a.s.saulted by a group so as not to steal something again.
Therefore, when the children stole, Kaoruko was angry until the children cried, even for the reason "I want older sister to eat something delicious". But they stole again.
"No, big sister! This time we didn't steal it!"
Another defense, Barnet, who was probably involved in it. Kaoruko softened her expression and asked if she was too worried.
"I'm sorry, what is with that fruit?"
However, Joshua does not answer whether it is difficult to say. Therefore Kaoruko turned her face to Barnet who defended earlier.
"On the main street......we met a n.o.bleman."
――n.o.ble. In response to Barnet's answer, Kaoruko raised her eyes again. Don't approach the n.o.bility. There are a lot of people who begged and were killed by the n.o.bles.
Not all of the n.o.bility are like that. But there are certainly those who try to kill if poor people get close to them and get them dirty.
"Why did you approach a n.o.bleman even though I usually say say not to! that!"
"Uh......"
"Gusu"
Barnet can't say anything about this and Joshua is still crying.
"Fine? n.o.bles don't think we are the same people! We are getting killed by them if their mood becomes bad!"
"Bu, But......"
"There is no but!"
Joshua tried to speak back, but Kaoruko would not allow any objection. Then Barnet answers to help Joshua.
"It's different, older sister. Because it was a n.o.ble with a similar atmosphere like older sister......"
""His hair color and face were kind of like older sister and he was very kind to us. Then I beckoned him......"
Black hair is not uncommon. However, if the color black is further subdivided, the hair color of Kaoruko is very rare. That means that j.a.panese hair is also rare. There is no carving on the face and the characteristic of a j.a.panese in this world. is rare. Kaoruko thought it was impossible.
