Is It Wrong To Try A New Start In Another World With A Dungeon - Chapter 26 Ch 25

Why am I here?

This is a dark passage, and I don’t remember when I entered here…

Oh? There’s a light at the end of it in that direction.

Nothing to do, let’s just walk towards it…

—————————————————————————————————————

I don’t know how much time passed here, but probably more than half an hour and it doesn’t seem I am advancing toward it…

Also, it’s strange… I can’t use my skills here…

Also my passive of is not working… what is going on?

Oh, right. Why didn’t I done that before?

‘System, what is going on? Where am I?’

…

Eh? Neither my skills not the System is working here.

Let’s quicken the pace…

MH?

Swoooooosh~

—————————————————————————————————————

Really, I don’t know anymore.

First that dark tunnel, and now a nighttime sea…

But this time there’s actually someone in the shore…

Better go talk to him.

Jean: Excuse me…

The old man turns his face towards me.

???: Oh? What rare occurrence for someone arrive here…

The old man has a really long brown beard and also long hair of the same color. Her irises are of a somewhat shiny blue.

From what I see, as he is topless, his body is really well-toned with really well-shaped abs, but her face is emanating an air of a wise man that lived a really long life…

???: Oi boy. I probably know what you want to know, but before that can I make a question?

Jean: Yes, please go ahead.

???: What do you think the stars are?

Jean: The stars? I am not completely sure, but I remember that is an enormous reactor where the Hydrogen is fused together and form Helium, well almost all of that is something like that.

???: Oooh, an approach from a scientific perspective.

Jean: Yeah.

???: But do you think that’s all?

Jean: …What do you mean?

???: Mmmh, let me ask you another question. Why some stars and constellation have a name?

Jean: Why? Because they… resemble something?

Why do I think that something is not right?

???: Hahaha, so you think that someone knows about the people or anything that is mentioned?

Jean: Surely not…

???: Then, what about achievements?

Jean: Achievement?

??? Yes, somewhat that the universe itself would remember for eternity… a real Achievement.

Jean: So all the stars and the constellations that I see are all achievements of someone?

???: Not all, we can only see a very microscopic part of those…

???: In the point of view you call ‘scientific’, the stars are born, they grow and at the end, they die and leave something to give birth to another one, right?

???: But if you see from my perspective, they are only waiting to shine another time.

Jean: …Old man, you sure thought it really hard…

???: Hahaha, it is only the tip of the iceberg.

???: Then, what do you think about that?

Jean: …That’s really cool and romantic. I mean, who doesn’t want a sign of herself imprinted in the universe?

???: Right? And, if it is really that, how would you want to be imprinted?

Jean: I’ll make an achievement so great that will make anyone envious. It will be so great that even the universe will have a problem of space with how big and beautiful will be.

???: Hahaha, that’s the spirit, boy!

Jean: By the way, I’m Jean. Who are you?

???: Me? I’m *****a***.

Jean: Sorry, it seems my ears are a bit pressurized. Can you repeat?

And a burning sensation came from my heart.

Improvise and too much strong

Jean: HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Ah… it is too much… At this rate, I’ll probably pass out.

???: Bye********** ***** ****** *****.

The old man said something, but I could not comprehend anything of that…

And as I was closing my eyes, he turned his sight to the night sky.

—————————————————————————————————————

Jean: HAAAA… HAAaaa.

[****** Quest ****** added]

I woke up panting a lot.

What type of nightmare had I to have a reaction like that?

I don’t remember anything apart from… the stars…?

Why would have I to dream about stars?

Haruhime: Jean, are you ok? Your face seems pale…

Jean: Don’t worry, it was only a nightmare… give me five minutes and I’ll recover.

Haruhime: Ok… but for today, don’t exert yourself too much, and remember that I and our goddess are here if you need anything, ok?

Jean: Yeah… I’ll make sure to talk with you if anything happens…

Jean: I’ll wash my face meanwhile you start to prepare breakfast… I’ll need a lot of energy at the start of the day!

Haruhime: Yeah!

Today I have to train a bit with Haru before heading to the dungeon with her. I am sure that a dream, and a nightmare at that, is really important, but if I don’t remember anything, trying to remember it will only make it worse…

*Slap*

Jean: This is not the moment, I’ll train with Haru, and in the afternoon I’ll read the Lemegeton and start to plan to forge my weapon!

A day is in front of me, and there isn’t time to lose!

Let’s work for the future!

—————————————————————————————————————

Meantime in a beach under the night sky…

???: Hahaha, an achievement too great for the universe… those words are really the words of a man…

The old man lay down in the sand, with the eye fixed in a particular spot of the sky…

???: But, these words might be a bit too much for yourself right now.

???: As one that saw a bit in the future, I really don’t know what will be for you, but I’ll cheer for you… baby strange star…

And he starts to sleep…
