Returned from Another World, Earth Turned Out to Be Quite the Fantasy Too. Also, Losing Heroines, Stop Looking This Way. - V4 Chapter 33

Chapter 33: “Where’s the Event?” ①

After finishing breakfast and getting ready, Natsuki grabbed his school bag and slipped on his sneakers at the front door.

“…Alright, I’m heading to school now. For real. I’m actually going. If anyone wants to stop me, now’s your chance. If there’s gonna be some big event, I’d prefer it in the morning rather than in the evening, so could you at least give me a heads-up?”

His family, who had gathered to see him off, all gave him strange looks.

“Why the hell are you acting like something’s gonna happen? Just go to school and come back already.”

“No, no, no, NO—literally all that’s been happening is events! It’s been nonstop!”

“Look at it this way—just think of it as getting all your yearly events packed into a few days.”

“Oh, so just a year’s worth, huh? I mean, let’s see—killed a god, fought Mammon, one of the Seven Deadly Sins, and had a full-on battle with Susanoo-no-Mikoto. Yep, totally just a year’s worth. Super normal.“

Honestly, just getting isekai’d felt like he had already burned through a lifetime’s worth of events.

“Alright then—I’m off. This is your last chance to stop me, got it? If you wanna pull something, now’s the time!”

“JUST GO ALREADY! Even Tsukuyomi complained about you skipping school, so hurry the hell up!”

“…Fine, fine! I get it! I’ll go to school, okay?! I’m leaving!”

With his face buried in his hands, sobbing dramatically, Natsuki dashed out the front door.

The rest of the household simply watched him go, tilting their heads in confusion.

“…Why is he so obsessed with having an event?”

Koume asked, but—

Not a single person had an answer.

■

“This is cruel! Event-san played with me for eleven days straight after I got back from the other world, but now on the twelfth day, it’s just done with me?! I’ve already become a man who can’t live without events!” 

Screaming nonsense, Natsuki sprinted through the city.

“W-Wait! Maybe there’s still hope! If I run into Senju-san or Yusuke-kun, they might invite me for an event loop—! Ah, crap, I already made it to school! Why the hell did I run?!”

Before he knew it, he had already arrived at the middle school.

With his body strengthened by magic, his sprint felt like a literal gust of wind.

And now, on his first day back in ages, Natsuki was kneeling at the school gate in utter despair.

Naturally—he stood out like crazy.

“…What exactly are you doing, Yura-kun?”

“—Huh? Miyako-san?”

Looking at him with clear exasperation was Miyako Minazuki, the second daughter of the Minazuki family.

〜〜Afterword〜〜

About three minutes after Natsuki left for school—

Ding-dong.

Ginko: “Comiiing~!”

Thor: “I am Thor, son of All-Father Odin!”

Ginko: “Whoa. A total macho just showed up.”

Thor: “I have heard that Natsuki Yura resides here! I wish to meet him! Ah, and I brought gifts!”

Ginko: “Oh, thanks… Wait. Manju and doburoku? Don’t tell me—you just got back from Tono?”

Thor: “—! To think you would see through it so easily… As expected of the family of the man who fought and defeated a god. No—perhaps it would be more accurate to call you his wife.”

Ginko: “Fufu~ Welcome, please come inside. Unfortunately, my ‘husband’ left for school three minutes ago. Would you like to come in for some tea instead?”
