Chapter 05: A Dimensional Pinch Beyond the Crisis

—What on earth is this situation??

I find myself questioning as I sit on an incredibly plush sofa, gazing vacantly at Leticia who sits next to me with a gentle smile.

To be honest… I still can’t quite believe that I’m engaged (not officially) to her.

It would be more believable if someone told me that this reincarnation was all a dream.

“Hey, Alto”

“Wh-What is it, Fre… I mean, Lady Leticia?”

When she calls my name, and I start to address her formally, she gives me a stern look, so I quickly switch to using her first name.

Still, she seems a bit unhappy, puffing her cheeks out slightly.

Who are you?

“…Lady?”

“…Leticia”

“Fufu, right. Call me that when it’s just the two of us.”

Seeing Leticia smile cheerfully, I heave a sigh of relief for the moment.

Honestly, I’m so nervous I could fall apart.

I mean, it’s definitely me who’d get the axe for any slip-up, right?

It’s like sitting next to the Grim Reaper, who wouldn’t be nervous?

I’d really like to meet someone who isn’t.

Suppressing my urge to escape, I keep engaging with the ever-cheerful Leticia.

“J-Just by the way… what should I do from now on…?”

“Don’t worry about the debt—I’ll take care of it.”

“Really? Is that okay…?”

“It’s fine. But… you need to prove you’re worthy of me covering for you. For starters, I’d like you to make a contract with a high-level spirit and be able to conquer an A-class dungeon. If you can do that, no one will object to our marriage.”

“…Huh?”

Wait a minute.

I don’t know how tough an A-class dungeon is, but a high-level spirit…?

That’s impossible… there are tens of thousands of spirit users in the kingdom, but only about 30 to 50 are high-level users…

The enormity of the challenge leaves me with nothing but a nervous laugh.

“Ha, haha… I’ll, um, do my best…”

“Good, give it your best shot.”

“T-Then, I’ll go get ready to make a contract with a spirit!”

After bowing to Leticia, I dashed back to the dorm while pulling out my smartphone.

581: Former Earthling

This is bad, this is bad, this is bad!!!

582: Nameless Earthling

Oh, you’re back.

Welcome back, Itchi.

583: Nameless Earthling

I think he’s broken? lol

What happened…?

584: Nameless Earthling

What happened?

Did you mess something up?

585: Nameless Earthling

Seriously, what’s up? LOL

Itchi’s brain must be fried. LOL

586: Former Earthling

[Bad News]

Guys, I’m now the fiancé of the duke’s daughter (not official yet).

587: Nameless Earthling

What?

588: Nameless Earthling

What??

589: Nameless Earthling

I don’t get it.

590: Nameless Earthling

How did Itchi win over that super cold-hearted duke’s daughter?

591: Nameless Earthling

No way…!?

Even I, who have cleared all endings and explored all the additional content, have never seen Leticia even consider marrying, let alone getting engaged!

592: Nameless Earthling

What’s going on?

Doesn’t Leticia hate men?

593: Nameless Earthling

>>591

LOL, someone really went all out with the additional content.

594: Former Earthling

>>590 >>592

I don’t understand it either.

Something about when I went to her house, she said I “could have passed without cheating” and “cheating is only a fail if the teacher notices.” And then later, “I commend your courage for confessing in front of the prince and Senondor. You’ve got the mental strength of a suitable husband for me.”

595: Nameless Earthling

Itchi must really be something, lol?

Passing a magic test with zero points is too wild!

596: Nameless Earthling

By the way, what about the bomb?

597: Nameless Earthling

Right? LOL

Did you end up taking it?

598: Former Earthling

>>596 >>597

Of course, I took it.

It seems there was a barrier around the place and they knew about it. Here’s a photo as proof:

https://※※※※※※※※※※※※

599: Nameless Earthling

You really took it with you? LOL

And, by the way, Leticia’s smile in the second picture is super cute.

600: Nameless Earthling

Right?

Totally jealous.lol

601: Nameless Earthling

A smile I’ve never seen before… what!?

602: Nameless Earthling

LOL, you even made a typo because you’re so shocked.

But I totally get the jealousy. Itchi marrying her is so annoying because she’s too cute.

603: Nameless Earthling

Found a setting collection deep in my house. LOL

It says Leticia “likes books and prefers someone who, like a book’s protagonist, doesn’t care about others and stays true to themselves.”

604: Nameless Earthling

Speaking of Itchi… he confessed in front of a prince and a duke’s son. lol

And he brought a bomb to her house. lol

605: Nameless Earthling

Was he exactly her type then? LOL

606: Former Earthling

It’s not funny, okay!

Because of the engagement, she’s covering my debts, but in return, she set some crazy conditions!

607: Nameless Earthling

Crazy conditions??

And she’s covering a billion for you… you must be really favored. LOL

608: Nameless Earthling

Right? LOL

Even for a duke’s daughter, that’s tough.

609: Former Earthling

Exactly.

So I was told to become a man worthy of her covering for me and was given two tasks:

Conquer an A-class dungeon
Contract with a high-level spirit

It’s hell…

610: Nameless Earthling

Itchi… that’s practically a dead end for you.

611: Nameless Earthling

These conditions are brutal…

612: Nameless Earthling

As someone who’s completed every ending, I can say making a contract with a high-level spirit is possible. But forget about conquering an A-class dungeon right now; it’s absolutely impossible.

613: Nameless Earthling

614: Nameless Earthling

>>612

A god has descended among us!

615: Former Earthling

>>612

Really? How do I do it?

616: Nameless Earthling

First, you need to buy a spirit stone used for summoning. Then, go to the center of the Spirit Forest and throw the stone into the Spirit Pool. Just call out the name of the spirit you want to contract with. After that, it’s all about determination and grit.

617: Former Earthling

I don’t have the money to buy such expensive spirit stones…!! I’m already a billion in debt, how is this supposed to work?!

618: Nameless Earthling

That’s hopelessly funny. Isn’t one stone like a hundred thousand?

619: Nameless Earthling

>>617

But there’s no other way.

620: Nameless Earthling

Even more hopeless, LOL.

621: Nameless Earthling

I shouldn’t laugh, but this is hilariously ridiculous. Hey, just make and sell bombs lol.
