The Adventurer Reincarnated into Another World - 218-Chapter 15-4 Shame
Grandpa, you have a big voice!
What are you hiding, Mr. Temma?
Chris and Amur came first and stood in front of me to tell me what happened.
Temma, let go of Grandpa before you tell us. Grandpa, I think he’s going to die.
‘Ah! Sorry…..
He was in such a hurry that he held his mouth and incidentally his nose with all his strength, and Grandpa’s face was red and distressed.
”Buhoa! I thought I was going to die!
In the meantime, is Grandpa okay? I was also able to confirm the baby’s identity, so I told him again the baby’s identity and Namitaro’s story. Then.
‘Mr Temma, you’re sure the behemoths aren’t coming! Mary will be pissed at me again!
‘Miss, let’s go back to the South!
Travel! I need my lunch!
Aura, we need to hurry and pack!
‘Yes! Slarin, help me!
Everyone was very confused.
‘So do it all right! Trust Nami!
Namitaro said confidently, but that didn’t stop everyone’s confusion.
It wasn’t until a short time after Namitaro’s statement that the confusion subsided, and the first thing that subsided was that Leni-san had finished packing. The ladies went into packing with a bang, and when Ms. Leni, who had the least amount of luggage, finished packing, she suddenly took a breath and cooled down and came up with the idea that it wouldn’t be a problem if I went to see her mother, Behemoth.
When the women heard Leni’s story, they blamed me for not telling them about it sooner, but I countered with a witness (slarin’) that I had mentioned it several times in the midst of the women’s confusion, but they hadn’t heard it. With such physical and mental exhaustion, the women have been sitting slumped in their chairs for some time now. Incidentally, Chris, who had almost no need to pack, was actually the slowest to cool down after hearing Leni’s story because he finished his own things first and then immediately started packing for Mary and the others. Incidentally, when Chris-san had cooled down, he had a dimension bag and a magic bag in his hand, which was filled with Merry and Allie, as well as the Juvees and their household items and even food.
”That’s why Behemoth’s mother won’t be coming to King’s Landing, and if she does want to see me, Namitarou will come to let me know beforehand and I’ll make sure that I come to see her, so there shouldn’t be any problems…….”
I don’t know what a behemoth is, so I can’t say for sure, but Namitaro said it was okay because its intelligence was higher than human and it had common sense.
I’ll have to leave that part to Namitaro… By the way, Tenma. Why are you so enamored with the baby behemoth? They wouldn’t even let us near them, let alone come near them…
Everyone nodded in agreement with Grandpa’s words, except me and Slarin and the others.
‘Why, if you ask me why… isn’t it the personality?’
When I said that with a tilt of my head, I got a cold look from everyone. All the while, the baby behemoth was rubbing his head against my hand, urging me to nudge him.
‘All joking aside, maybe it’s because I gave it a large amount of magical power. Even with Solomon, he was nipping at me as soon as I was born when I was giving him magic, but on the other hand, he was intimidated by Amy.
‘The fact that you were latching on to Temma-kun and threatening Amy, it sounds like the theory that it was the amount of magic you poured out is correct… and with your personality, it would be the opposite.
‘The way you put it, Chris, what happens to people who aren’t very personable and can’t pour out their magic power? Maybe they’re going to eat us up?
Buhiii!
‘Temma! If you eat Chris, that boy will get a stomach ache! Gunnu!
The baby squealed in affirmation of my words, and Amour got on board with me and teased Mr. Chris. Well, Amur was caught right away because of his proximity to Mr. Chris……………………….but I had the baby behemoth right next to me, so Mr. Chris couldn’t get close.
When Namitaro was about to touch the baby, saying he was going to go back to his mother, the baby struck him with his tail.
You can’t stay here forever, let’s go to your mother……… Ho-ho!
Biiiiiiiiiiiiiii!
The baby let out a high-pitched squeal after slapping Namitaro back and forth with its tail. The squeal seemed to be an ultrasonic means of attack as well, and several tables, chairs and dishes in the dining room were broken. And.
Hiju…
Oh, my head…
“Ta-da!
Naturally, we were affected as well. Among them, the two beastmen and Shiroumaru, whose hearing was better than that of an ordinary person, had been driven to the verge of fainting.
”Well, that’s just too hard… sorry!
Bi?
If this was the case, it was going to be terrible even if it wasn’t Amur and the others, so taking advantage of the opening where the baby was turning towards Namitaro, I took out a spare dimension bag and forced the baby into it.
‘Ooh … even the baby is a behemoth, as expected. My head is dizzy.
Namitaro, who was supposed to have been hit by the baby’s ultrasound, had only suffered a mild concussion, and we, who had been damaged by the reverberations, had done more damage.
‘Hey Tenma, lend me the dimension bag with Vonn in it. As it is, I’ll take you to Hi-chan.
That said, Namitaro tried to take the dimension bag with the baby in it from me, but
…why do you have to lift it out of the water?
No, I’ll get hurt if I give it to you. I don’t want to be the only one who hates me, just Namitaro. I don’t want them to hate me.
I don’t want to give Namitaro the baby that has missed me so much and have him resent me for giving him to Namitaro.
So you’ll have to talk it over.
Yes? Ahhhh!
The moment Namitarou stopped moving, I used the ‘Guardian Gigant’ to push Namitarou into the dimension bag.
‘Now, if Namitarou can be successfully convinced to do so.
No! Vonn, I need to talk…
If you can convince him!
Temma, I don’t think that’s possible.
Yeah. I can’t.
I shoved Namitaro, who had made a face in the middle of his words, with the ‘gigantism’ once more to finish, but he was immediately confronted by Jeanne and Chris, who told him he couldn’t.
‘Temma, I can’t! Bonn is totally….
Namitaro makes another face, but he shoves it in again, silently.
‘Hey, Temma……..’
I push in again.
‘Temma……..’
I push in again.
‘There, there…..
I think I got some blur, but I don’t care, I’m just going to press on…
That’s enough!
I couldn’t get into it. As expected, the goofiness was too much, and Namitaro’s crown……..
Pick up the blurbs!
But it wasn’t.
So, did that persuade you?
No! I don’t want to go home, I don’t want to go home, I can’t talk to you at all! You know what? I’ll take care of the rest! Hey!
Wait, wait!
I tried to listen to him properly, but this time it was the other way around and I got shoved into the dimension bag.
Shh! ………Bii~!
The baby at first tried to make threatening noises, as if it had mistaken me for Namitaro, but it soon realized and ran up to me happily. Apparently, he wasn’t angry that I pushed him in here.
‘You know, no matter how much you don’t like Namitaro and don’t want to follow him, your mother will be sad and you have to go back to her.
Vi!
I tried to convince the baby to admonish him, but he said, “No! He refused with a squeal that sounded like “I’m not going to do this”. After that, he refused to do anything I said, and I had to get my head around what to do. The baby seems completely intent on living in our home. Maybe it came to us as an egg and was born here, so it seemed more natural for it to live at home than for it’s mother, whom it had never met.
If that’s the case, then it’s completely my fault.
To be exact, it’s a fault with Namitaro, but this is not the time to say that. After all, this baby should have proper parents and be looking forward to meeting them… so…
You have to listen to me.
Vi!
I was determined (…) to make him return to his mother, and I was determined (…) to make him return to his mother.
‘There is no place for you here. You’re only a distraction if you’re here.
Bi…..
I continued to speak, threatening the baby with a fairly strong killing intent. Even though it was a newborn, the baby seemed to instinctively feel what was being directed at it, and it took a step or two backwards, distancing itself from me.
‘I’ve lost my parents. It’s the same with Slarin and Shiroumar, and when it comes to Solomon, I don’t even know who my parents are.
I don’t think a newborn baby could understand this sort of thing, but it was the only way I could come up with to share my thoughts about my parents.
‘But you have a mother. You have a mother who’s waiting for you to come home. I can’t leave a man like that in this house. So go home with Namitaro!
Bi, bi, bi, bi….
He didn’t know what it meant, but he understood that he was rejected with strong words and a killing intent. The baby looked clearly depressed and then….
Biiiiiiiiiiiiiii!
For some reason, he rubbed his head against my leg.
I thought I’d failed, and I thought I’d have to make sure I couldn’t get out of the dimension bag when this happened and force Namitaro to take me back.
Bii!
The baby made its own way toward the doorway.
‘Are you leaving?’
I asked him that, and he gave me a short squeal in return.
I felt bad for the baby, but I knew that this solved the big problem… then…
‘Temma! So you were able to convince me!
Namitaro poked his face into the bag with a line as if he was sure the conversation was over. And then.
Biiiiiiiiiiiiiii!
Bon, don’t bite!
The baby bit me on the tip of my nose and started to freak out. The way Namitaro said it bothered me, but I didn’t want to interrupt the baby’s playfulness, so I decided to let him do what he wanted and went outside… and for some reason, everyone looking at me was strangely kind.
I had a bad feeling about this, but I didn’t want to know why, so I thought about running away for now, but before I could act, I
Temma I will always be here for you, even if Ricardo and Shelia are not.
Yes, Mr. Temma you can always call me when you miss me.
Grandpa and Chris said that with tears in their eyes.
‘Maybe … did you hear me?’
I asked the four men behind Grandpa and Chris fearfully, and they all gave a small nod.
‘Temma, we can’t replace your father and mother-in-law, but we are family!
Yes, I do! I’m a slave but I’m going to try my best to be your family!
That’s the spirit, Jeanne!
‘Miss! And for that, let’s work on your cooking and sewing too!
When Amour and Jeanne said something, the other two continued to say something, but I didn’t have the time to hear what they said.
”Uh, uh … uh … ah … ah … ah!
He didn’t know what to say, and tried to calm down for now… but he couldn’t calm down, and in fact, he couldn’t bear the growing shame, so he ran out of the cafeteria at a brisk pace. Then he ran into his room, locked it, put his things in front of the door, gathered up the bedding and crawled into it.
But as I crawled under the covers, I didn’t feel sleepy or anything, so I could hear my grandfathers banging and shouting at the door as they chased me. And that’s what makes my shame stronger.
It seemed like Grandpa and Amur thought that banging on the door would not clear the air, and they tried to break in through the window, but they were blocked by the golem that had been placed to intercept the intruders and screamed.
”It’s already morning…….as expected, this isn’t good any more…….”
I had been holed up for more than half a day, let alone overnight, so it was time to give up and leave, but I couldn’t quite get ready for it.
”Hmph~ Okay, let’s go!
With a lot of energy, I got out of the futon, put away the things I had put in front of the door, and went out into the hallway… Grandpa and the others were cooking fish and meat in front of the door for some reason.
‘Temma’s here! Secure!
Namitaro shouted as he pointed at me with a skewer of fish, but Grandpa and the others were in charge of the grill and looking up at the smoke, so they couldn’t move as quickly as they could, and I was quicker to close the door.
‘What do they want, those guys?’
My sense of shame had temporarily disappeared when I looked at Grandpa and the others. If this had been Grandpa and his friends’ strategy, then it would have been a great success, but instead of feeling great, I was too disgusted to say anything, or I felt like it was better to stay out of it first.
‘Temma! Please open the door!
As I was troubled by my grandfathers’ odd behavior, I heard them yelling at me from outside, followed by Maria’s voice calling me.
‘You look better than I thought, don’t you? I was worried when I heard you were holed up.
When I open the door again, I see Maria-sama with a look of relief on her face at the door, and Grandpa, King, Ernest-sama, and Lyle-sama sitting upright behind her. And then there’s Zain-sama, who is a little farther away from Grandpa and the others, looking at Grandpa and the others with a dumbfounded look on his face. And outside the window, I could see Namitaro being hung upside down by Slarin and the others.
‘Chris came to report last night, in a hurry, that ‘Temma is holed up and hasn’t come out’. So I left it to him because that guy said he’d go talk to him… but it was a mistake.
After waiting until late last night, Chris went to report to Maria in a hurry, saying that she might be quite mentally ill because she didn’t come out of the waiting room last night, but she decided to wait until the morning because it was late at night and she thought it might be better to give it some time, but the person she was going to talk to Lyle-sama agreed with the king and Ernest-sama’s idea that it would be difficult for me to talk to him if I were a woman, so he came to my house with only royal men (older than me) who could move quickly… but no matter how much he talked to me through the door, he didn’t get a response from me, so… As a result of adopting Namitaro’s suggestion of “Operation Iwato”, he started a barbecue at the door. Zain-sama saw that the plan was about to be adopted and decided that it was not a good idea, so he went to call Maria. By the way, our women, as the king said, “The conversation goes more smoothly when there are no women around! He’s spending a lot of time in the city due to the decision to
‘No matter how much they don’t show up, they’re not going to catch it with food… so why didn’t Temma respond to those people’s voices?
The answer to that question is simple and straightforward: he was simply asleep and didn’t realize it. He said that he screamed quite loudly, but he didn’t notice it because he hadn’t slept until late and because he had his earplugs on and he was deep asleep.
Then Mary laughed and said that it was no wonder they couldn’t hear him, and Grandpa and the others lamented that what they had been doing was in vain.
‘We’re hungry, and I think we’ll use these for breakfast.
Can you get one for me? And for Zain.
I was hungry when I saw the fish that my grandpa and the others were roasting, so I casually muttered to myself that I was going to make breakfast, and Maria and the others decided to make it with me, since morning was not yet over. In the meantime, my grandpa and the others were still sitting on their haunches, all of them looking at me as if they were asking for help… but I decided to ignore them and just take the grilled fish and meat with me. And by the way, the barbecue set and ingredients.
”Oh, Temma-sama. Is the shut-in over?
When I went to the dining room, Mr. Cliffe was preparing tea, and as soon as he saw me, he teased me about it. I tried to complain about it, but I couldn’t say anything back, so I ignored him, and when he saw the grilled fish and grilled meat I had, Mr. Kleif immediately decided it was a meal and went into the kitchen.
‘Well, what will we be making?’
Since the rice that takes the longest time to prepare, I prepared miso soup, pickles, grilled fish that I confiscated from my grandpa and his friends, kinpira with leftover root vegetables, and natto (fermented soybeans). I gave the meat to Slarin and the others to eat in my room as an apology for my concern.
Both Maria and Master Zain said they didn’t have much of a chance to eat Southern-style meals, but they seemed to enjoy them, except for the natto (fermented soybeans). Well, natto is not strange that Maria-sama and Zain-sama can’t eat it, since even in the South, they have their own likes and dislikes… but… even though you said you’ve rarely eaten natto, you stirred it more than a hundred times with your accustomed hands, and even mixed it the way I did. I think it would be a lie to say that Mr. Cliffe, who was careful and used his chopsticks to cleanly eat his natto rice, had hardly ever eaten it in any way. Incidentally, Maria-sama and Zain-sama couldn’t use their chopsticks well, so they used a fork to eat.
When we had finished eating, my grandpa asked Maria’s permission to ask her for permission, hesitantly stifling the numbness in his legs.
‘Oh?’
Maria said such things in a white-knuckled way, and Grandpa was a grandfather, and he said, “Yes, that’s right! Alex and the others forced me to go along with them! And then he gingerly sat down in a seat near me.
The three abandoned men looked at him as if he were a traitor. Grandpa completely ignored their gazes and begged me for breakfast.
”Temma we’re hungry too………Hee! Temma, you have to convince Maria! Quickly!
When I was making a meal for my grandfather, the king, who apparently couldn’t stand the smell of it anymore, asked me to be his mediator with Maria. It’s a shameful thing to do for his wife, but he thought it would be a bad idea if he had to do it with Maria, so he looked at Maria to ask her to do what the king asked.
“Give it up, my king.
The moment our eyes met, Maria smiled meaningfully at me and I decided that I couldn’t do it.
”Maria, your majesty needs to have something to eat as well, or I don’t think I’ll have the energy to do my work this afternoon.
But the tide turned when Mr. Cliffe, who had brought my grandfather’s food to the kings I’d abandoned, offered to help, and Maria had to give him permission to eat, rather than not be able to work. But
‘I’m sorry, Your Majesty, Master Ernest and Master Lyle. This is all we had left of our breakfast.
That said, what Mr. Cliffe brought out was the natto that Maria-sama and Zain-sama had left behind. The three of them wanted me to make miso soup and so on, but Maria-sama agreed with Mr. Cliffe’s words that it was a waste not to eat the leftovers, so she ate the natto rice while picking her nose. I don’t know if Lyle-sama got used to the smell or became paralyzed, but he ate his fill, even getting a second helping.
Thus, it seemed that “Operation Iwato” had come to an end, but….
“Ten mama~! I’m sorry, come back to me~~!
He had completely forgotten about Namitaro and left him hanging outside, such as until the ladies returned.
