Chapter 87 The Disappointing Hero Returns To Another World.Txt
"In that world, being a virgin is super rare. Virgin guys are so valuable that women fight over them. But once you lose your virginity, no one cares about you anymore... that's how it is there."
What kind of world is that... Married people must feel so out of place.
Aren't there going to be a lot of couples with no s*x?
"Huh. Is that also in Narropa?" (T/N: a mainstream novel with isekai, harem, cheat power genre, etc)
"Nope. This world is about the same level of civilization as yours. Well, saying it's the same is more accurate, I guess?"
Whoa, things just got a bit sketchy.
So, it's like a world after a civilization collapse?
"So what about the language?"
"Don't worry, Japanese will work just fine."
Hmm.
I've lent [Otherworld Language Understanding V] to Tanabe (Napkin Master/Isekai shopping). It's nice that Japanese is okay.
"Well, that's enough spoilers for now. If you knew everything, the game would be boring, right?"
"Yeah, that's true for games, but... I don't really want to play a game. I just want to get rid of my virginity without any strings attached."
"Yeah, that's fine. The main mission is to either defeat or convince the empress who rules that world. You can't go back to your original world until that's done. Getting rid of your virginity is more like a bonus route."
She casually mentions the 'empress.'
Well, in a world where chastity is flipped, it makes sense that a woman would be in charge, right?
"Convince? What am I supposed to convince her of?"
"That's a secret! But you could just take her down quickly if you want?"
The goddess shrugs as she says this.
...The way she puts it, there's probably a reason why I can't defeat her or why she doesn't want me to.
"Oh, just to repeat, you'll be targeted as a virgin right away. Also, the people there will figure out that you're a virgin pretty quickly."
What's that about?
Do they have some kind of virgin detection skill?
...And this girl said she "found a new world."
That means it's a world created by a different god.
And since it's not the typical otherworld "Narropa," the creator is probably the Crack God.
...Looks like she's trying to get me to take down the Crack God too?
Hmph, but once I lose my virginity, I won't have anything left for her to use against me, and I can cut ties with her.
I don't want to keep falling for this guy's tricks, being dragged into fighting the Crack God just because I'm a virgin.
Alright, let's do this.
"Got it. I'll do it, or rather, I'll just throw it away."
"That's the spirit, Tadayuki! Now, let's go!"
The moment I agreed, a magic circle appeared at my feet.
This panic feels suspicious, but... whatever, it's fine. A world where virgins are valued, huh? I'll conquer it!
* * *
After a brief blackout from teleportation... I found myself in some nighttime town.
It felt like a decent-sized city.
Buildings lined the streets, and there was a station-like structure nearby.
Not as big as Shibuya or Shinjuku, but about the size of Ueno.
...But looking around, there were no people in sight.
The lights were on, though, with a few buildings a bit further away leaking some light.
For now, I'll use my [Detection] skill.
This skill shows a simple map of the area in my mind, so it's standard to use it first in unexplored places, regardless of whether there are enemies or not.
Checking the surroundings... I spotted a few red dots and one blue dot about 100 meters down an alley.
Red usually means hostile beings, while blue indicates a human.
In this case, it seems a person is being attacked by monsters.
And if I read the goddess's intentions correctly, this is a tutorial mission.
Help the person being attacked by monsters and get a sense of the situation in this world... that's the plan.
"Alright, let's go."
I activated my [Body Enhancement] skill and dashed forward.
Two seconds later, I arrived at the alley.
Peeking from the shadow of a building... I saw a guy around my age, or maybe a bit younger, surrounded by shadows.
"Waaah! Don't come near me!"
The guy was swinging a wooden stick, trying to fend off the shadows around him.
But those weren't people.
They were zombies.
Even from this distance, I could smell the rot.
Now then.
Dealing with zombies is simple.
Slice them apart with a sword.
Crush them with a blunt weapon.
Use fire skills to disinfect the filth.
Or send them to rest with holy water or other mystical items.
However, I don't want to use any of that this time since there are witnesses.
The town is probably quiet because of this zombie.
If they find out I'm someone who can fight zombies, they might start relying on me weirdly.
I didn't come here to help people.
I just came looking for some warmth.
So, I want to keep my power hidden.
...And then.
"Right, with that skill..."
I activated the skill [Dark Magic] that I stole from Nick (Redo guy).
When you activate a magic-type skill, it shows you the available spells in your mind based on that attribute.
I spread my fingers wide and aimed at the zombie.
Invisible threads, just by feeling, connected me to the zombie.
With that, I controlled the zombies with my fingertips.
The corpses that were swarming the man suddenly changed direction and moved away.
Seeing the zombies pull back, the man slumped down as if his legs gave out.
Now, I commanded the zombies to fall from the building, putting them on autopilot.
I spoke to the man.
"Are you okay?"
"Eek... oh, yeah, a living person... I'm, I'm fine, somehow."
"Let's get out of here for now; the zombies might come back..."
From a distance, I heard the sound of a car driving.
It must have reached the man's ears too, as his expression tightened even more than when he was surrounded by zombies.
"Damn it, just when I thought the zombies had gone somewhere...!"
"Any idea who it could be?"
I asked back, and the man frowned and shot back a question.
"No, I mean, who else could be driving a car right now but them?"
"Them?"
When I asked again, the man looked exasperated and shouted, slightly irritated.
"Of course, it's the d*ck-hunting squat!"
"Whatttt!"
