Isekai Rakugo Chapter 4

Chrono · Chinchillone 【Udon Udon】pt 4 – A.

Klause and Damaya watched the 'other world video terminal' for hours on end.

When Damaya looked at the clock, the time was about Shiva Sylvia (3pm in Japan).

"Damaysama, this person seems very strong" said Klause pointing at the person on the 'Other World Video Terminal'.

Klause was pointing at a seemingly strong looking man wielding a sword and knocking down his enemies.

However, as soon as Damaya saw it, he smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Klause. Certainly, he looks like an excellent swordsman, but unfortunately he is an actor, this one is a fake."  

"Is it fake? Is that so, but he blew away 450 people by swinging that big sword, Here the only one that can do that in our country is the 'Invincible Heaven's Gatekeeper Costner'. Perhaps he is the Hero?"

Damaya became more and more troubled for Klause who spoke with his eyes shining brightly.

"No no, Klause. Well. How to explain this…. This is what's called a 'Drama', they aren't really fighting. They are trying to imitate the battle to turn it into a picture for people's amusement and entertainment per say."

"Ha.. This is entertainment?… This?"
(tln: This was my reaction to K-Drama)

"Ah, that's right."

Klause still clearly looking skeptical murmurs "No wonder.."

Regarding 'Drama', Damaya too thought that it was reality until recently.

By watching 'Making Image' episode one day, Damaya finally learned how 'Drama' was made. That was why just the other day Damaya was able to reach the answer to the mysterious question how a man who had been beaten to his neck and was dead could be in a different show with no sign of problem laughing.

"In other words, both the samurai and the ninjas shown are fakes, even if we summon them, we will just be summoning a person whose profession is an 'actor' of a different world. That is useless here at the Terminal."
(tln: I wonder what happens if they watch anime, and summon them, do they get an anime character in another world? Do they even get anime channels? So much questions)

Klause was astonished hearing such words and murmured,

"That is certainly useless.."

"But why are people in the different world making fake stories and enjoying themselves?"

To that question, Damaya told his opinion.
"Well… Well, if I had to guess, that world is peaceful. Perhaps they already destroyed all of their enemies, and since there is no real warfare they will make fakes so to satiate their desires. I am not sure which is more frightening."

"Then you believe that they are hungry for battle?"

"Ah, that's right"

They shared their awe of the other world clearly shown on their faces.

Damaya then looked for another program, Klause asked in a loud voice.

"Damaysama, so who is this person? As you can see, he seems to be highly educated."

"Oh, he's an announcer."

"An announcer, what is an announcer?"

"The show that is broadcasting now is said to be the 'Other world information program'. Well, think of it like a magical heralds.

"Ah, I see"

Klause nodded repeatedly, and stared keenly at the announcer.

"Naturally, they do have enormous amount of knowledge, but they are so familiar with the knowledge of the otherworld and with our common senses being so different, it will be confusing for them to come and may not be able to save the world."

"Oh, I guess it might turn out that way."

…Atleast, the person should be able to do karate or some other old martial arts thought Damaya.
However, Damaya still thought whether or not to summon this 'announcer'.

Since the prophet has foretold it, there is no mistake that Damaya will be the one to summon the Messiah. Damaya didn't want this person to be a random person. He wanted the saviour to be a martial artist that isn't an imposter, a human being who has reached the peak of their skill, where even if they come to the 'Terminal' they will be able to make use of that skill.

Of Course due to this criterias Damaya set for himself, he wanted a scholar or a soldier who was familiar with the art of war.

Damaya also thought that maybe a hero had already existed in 'Site Pier' and that perhaps the savior needed was not that of a soldier, but of a wise sage. Thus he did not think Klause's suggestion of the 'announcer' is wrong.

Maybe the saviour needed was not even a human being, but a weapon or a tool.
Sometimes Damya had seen very powerful weapons of the other world that was showcased on the news.
Such as a big metal bird, or a tube that bellowed fire.

These seems to match the powers of a legendary class magic if not more.

(tln: I really hope that when they say "tube that bellowed fire", they meant flamethrower because I have been playing wait too much Verdun and the flamewaffer is too much fun)

If you can summon the user with that…

… That's right, it may be the best course of action to wait until the news showcases its 'Self Defence Force' to appear so that I can summon one of them…

Thus Damaya has decided to target his aim at the other world soldier, and he prepared himself to clap the moment it was shown.

And with that though three days have passed.

The shows that we were seeking has not since aired with exception of one time.

During that exception, a weapon with the name 'Osprey' has been showing. However, I missed the chance, as when the weapon called 'Osprey' landed and I was about to clap and summon it, it immediately changed to 'announcers'.

Everyone will bet the 'Terminal's' survival on the thing I will summon, so with this heavy pressure I have no choice but to be extra cautious.

'Osprey' seemed to have another member of the 'other world' thus even if I brought that person and made him the saviour, I am not sure if he can understand us.

(tln: I am going to assume by Osprey, they meant V-22 Osprey, which would most likely be flown by an American, thus the "another member" remark)

Damaya calmed down again and waited for the moment when the weapons were shown.
Klause on the other hand looked onto the screen with deep empty eyes, a clear sign of mental and physical exhaustion.
(tln: … ya know… i can somehow understand this… )
