Volume 1 Chapter 11 Going Home My Life is Zero？
I took the bus from the bus stop near the Seeker training dungeon and headed home.
On that bus, I thought about what happened today.
"Just yesterday, I was in another world, and today I suddenly went to a dungeon after returning to Japan, and the goddess surprise gave me abilities from that world... what a day!"
So much has happened.
"Still, that goddess surprise really helped me... Without her, I wouldn't have been able to beat those 2 goblins. I could have even lost my life."
Yeah, it was really dangerous back then.
Honestly, I want to give a big thanks and a thumbs up to the Soggy Goddess for giving me that ability.
"But, I actually tried using the skill, and it feels just right."
Yeah, until yesterday, I was living in that other world with a level 120 body.
And now, I just returned to Japan.
So what I want to say is, honestly, the state of the passive skill 'Body Awakening (Extreme)' feels normal for me.
"In fact, when I first got here, I wasn't using the 'Body Awakening (Extreme)' skill, so my body felt really heavy..."
By the way, right now, my abilities are unlocked by the goddess surprise, so 'Body Awakening (Extreme)' is always active.
Because this feeling is just 'normal' for me.
It's easier too.
"Wow, I was really panicking at first. It's only been one day since I came from the other world, and I couldn't control the 'Body Awakening (Extreme)' that was always active over there..."
Yeah, at first, I couldn't control the power of 'Body Awakening (Extreme)' and ended up bursting a monster.
"But, I'm glad I managed to control my power somehow. Maybe it's because here, the magic and the source of skills, 'mana', are stronger than in the other world."
Yes, surprisingly, in the modern world, the 'mana' is denser compared to the other world.
I thought the other world would have denser mana, just like a fantasy world.
"Actually, with my current 'Body Awakening' in constant activation, I feel lighter than when I was in the other world."
I can mostly control the constant activation of 'Body Awakening', but there are still some suspicious parts.
So, I have to be careful in my daily life for a while.
"Anyway, I have to go to school properly starting tomorrow. But first..."
I remember the 'things I need to do' and feel blue again.
"Sigh... It's been 5 years since I last saw my mom and sisters. Ugh, this is awkward."
Yes, I have to go back home today.
But honestly, I feel awkward and would rather not go home.
Before I transported to the other world, I was always holed up in my room, telling my mom and sisters, "Shut up! Go away! Don't bother me!" and making them suffer.
Honestly, I even think my family might be happier without me.
In fact, when I think about my family after going to the other world, my first thought was "I feel relieved."
That's how hard it is for me to face my family.
"But, since I'm still alive as a high school sophomore from 5 years ago, if I don't go home, my family will worry again..."
Back then... until the start of the second semester, I was holed up in my room all summer, seriously thinking about 'easy ways to die.'
In other words, I was at my lowest point when I wanted to look away.
Of course, now that I've gone to the other world, I've regained my confidence, but my family from 5 years ago... my mom and twin sisters probably think I'm 'pathetic' or 'a shut-in, seriously stop.'
Because I said terrible things to my family that made them think that way.
"But... that's why I came back to my original world, right?!"
That's right.
I want to go back to my original world and start my life over, so even if they say I will "reset to level 1," I still decided to return to the present (here).
I have a strong determination to face life head-on and enjoy it without looking away from the bad things.
"...That's right. I thought that, so I decided to stop staying in the comfortable other world (over there) and return to my original world."
So, I must not run away.
Even Shinji-kun from the new century said that.
"For now, when I get home, I will apologize to my family. That's where I will start."
At the moment I made up my mind, I arrived at the bus stop where I would get off.
...Alright, let's go.
I got off the bus and nervously followed the path home alone.
