Ed: Steelz 

 James: Uhuh?

Mawee: Oh you're finally awake?

Mawee: You were trying to escape from me right?

Mawee: You walked straight into my trap.

Mawee: The same as the victims I tortured for information.

???: Gwuaa wret le go!!

Mawee: Well forget about him, at least you are mine-

When Mawee reaches for his body as he tried moving.

Mawee: Don't worry, everything will feel good.

Before she could grab him, James woke up.

---

James: Waa! haa haa...

While he woke up while breathing heavily.

Rias: Having a bad dream James?

James: Yeah...by the way why are we on a carriage?

Rias: Since I hate waiting, I just brought you here with my magic without waking you up.

James: Can I learn magic?

Rias: Yes you can, but first let's go to a town and get your status checked.

James: But what about my charm?

Rias: Use this cloak then.

She throws a cloak to James.

James: What's this for?

Rias: They'll think you’re a mage that focuses on studying magic so they won't bother checking your face and profession. They'll just look at your status.

James: B-but I'm wanted since I charmed the princess and the holy maide-

Rias: YOU WHAT? That's a bigger problem than I thought, so the news of those two overthrowing the higher-ups is because of you.

James: I didn't know that I had this when I was summoned here...

Rias: Ugh, they might become troublesome if that is like that. Luckily we are going to a border town, not from the country we are in.

James: Thanks...

Rias: Don't thank me, thank the peddler.

James approached the peddler.

James: Thanks for letting us in your carriage...

Peddler: Don't worry about it, I am just returning the favour for saving me from the bandits.

James: ...

James felt something complicated.

Rias: Anyway, while we're travelling tell me more of the ones in your world.

...

Rias: What was the calendar’s date on your world when you got summoned here?

James: 2020, May, 21.

Rias: I remember Mikael saying that he got summoned here in this world in his birthday, It's calendar date was 2020, February, 29.

James: ...

Rias: I think I can create a theory about that since I had asked several summoned people about when they got here too.

James: May I know what timeframe?

Rias: the oldest summoned people I know is a person on 1967 the earliest I know is you and Mikael.

James: We are the earlier ones?

Rias: Yes, but I'm not too sure because sometimes the summoned people becomes one with this world. They became indistinguishable from the inhabitants of the people here.

...

James: ...

Rias: That was a fun ride I gathered more information about his world.

James: Why are you gathering information about our world?

Rias: Well I've been creating a theory on why is this world is still stuck on the technological era of what's called medieval in your world. Wanna know about it?

James: Yes.

Rias: Okay, while we wait to enter the town I should tell you what my theory is.

Rias: We the people of this world don't need technology as much as your world since we already have the magical capability to fill those gaps, like healthcare, Weapons, Defense, and lastly this world has 1 religion. That religion unifies us all. In your world, many religions became corrupt right?

James: Yes in the old days where they used their power to-

Rias: Well, in here our religion is kind of the same, except they hate new technologies and just focus on magic research.

James: Rias how long have you be-

Guard: Hold on you two, we still need to check your identity.

Rias: Here's my card and this one is my disciple.

Guard: Hmm?...!!! An elf? Okay, then you two may pass.

James: Why is he giving you VIP treatment?

Rias: Well I'm a Mithril adventurer after all.

James: Mithril? 

Rias: It's the same as an S class adventurer except it means I'm an adventurer from the olden days since I lived a long life.

James: Ohhh! 

Rias: Awesome right?

---

They arrived at an Inn.

Rias: This is where we'll stay tonight.

James: I-is it-

Rias: No we'll have separate rooms.

James: Thanks...

Rias: Let's go inside.

...

Currently, the two are sitting at a table.

Rias: Did you leave important things in your room?

James: I don't have anything except these clothes.

Rias: Sorry my bad~ ahahaha

She laughed.

James: So may I know why they are looking at us?

Rias: Since there are only a small number of us, you could say it is unusual to see an elf but the most unusual one is me since I look like an elf child.

James: Oh...but thanks, this hood, it’s pretty effective.

Rias: Of course I cast a magic on your cloak that makes your face blurry, even if someone accidentally saw you under your hood they won't be affected by your charm.

James: Ah so it means I can explore the town with this?

Rias: You can just always keep your hood on. If they saw your face then that'd be a problem.

James: I won't since. It's been a while since I was able to calm down.

Rias: You can explore the town if you want, just come back here to the inn when it's night time.

James: Huh?

Rias: You want to explore right? since I'll be analyzing all the things you've said to me so I'll just stay here in the inn.

James: I can?

Rias: You can, here I have some coins in me.

She gave him 3 silver coins.

Rias: Use that wisely.

James: Y-yes I will!

...

A person kept following him.

(What is with that person, why is he still following me?)

James hurried his pacing.

(Shit a dead end!)

???: You can't run James.

(What? why does he know my name?!)

???: That look of surprise...I'll remove this disguise of mine.

The person that was following James removed its cloak.

Mawee: It’s me, Mawee.

James: I-its really you?!

Mawee slowly approaches James making sure he has no way of escaping.

James: N-no! don't approach me!

Before she can reach James a flash of light suddenly emerges before them.

???: James, you called me~

He blocks his sight to not be blinded by the flash of light.

When he heard her voice he muttered.

James: Angelina?

Angelina: Yes it's me.

James: H-how?

Angelina kept blocking Mawee.

Mawee: You bitch!!!

Angelina: Well I was in a sermon but then I got called by you.

James: Preach? Ah, those clothes...

Angelina: Well, I'm a pope now.

Mawee: Don't you ignore me!

Mawee got filled with rage.

Angelina: But if I get rid of her would you do one thing for me?

James: ...

Angelina: No? Then I'll let her go.

James: Wait! I'll do one thing just...don't kill her.

Angelina: Hmm? Alright~

Mawee: Hey-

Mawee disappeared.

James: W-what the heck...

Angelina: I just forcefully teleported her to the demon castle.

James: T-thanks...

Angelina: At night, do it to me, ok~?

She suddenly disappeared.

James: I should return to the inn now.

On the way back to the inn he came across a scenery.

He was mesmerized by how beautiful the place was.

Because of it, he returned to the Inn a bit late.

...

Rias: What happened, why do you look exhausted?

James: Nothing...

Rias: If you don't want to talk about it then I won't ask further.

James: ...

Once inside his room, he immediately rests in the bed.

James: Ugh I'm missing my previous world...

James: Both Mawee and Angelina showed up today, now that I think about it they might be watching me from my back, but what's the deal with Angelina-

Angelina: James.

James: Whoa...

He didn't react much but still muttered in surprise.

Angelina: I'm here~

James: Ah right, for saving me earlier.

Inside he wasn't much stable but he still answered in a calm voice.

Angelina: James I said earlier that you'll do one thing right? I'll say it now, you need to "satisfy me." Okay?

James: I get it...

Angelina: I'm looking forward to it~

James accepted it since he can't do anything about it, even if he hates it because of Mawee, he'll still do it because if not, a problem may arise from her.
