Takarakuji de 40-oku Atattandakedo Isekai ni Ijuu Suru Chapter 51

Translator: Yukkuri Oniisan Editor: TheDefend   Chapter 51: Why?   Overwhelmed by the vexation and tormented by a sense of helplessness, while hanging her head down and choked with tears that rained down on the floor, Valetta noticed that there is one part of herself that was terribly calm and had thought of an idea. Near her was Kazura who has gently patted her back and worried about her, who was shedding tears while quivering. When I am down, and, oh, my soul, so weary Suddenly, she had an idea to embrace his chest and letting out all the complaints she had amassed until now. But this man would certainly kindly take everything she said and her wish into his consideration. “Don’t go anywhere”, if she cries and clings to him, he will surely always stay beside her. When troubles come, and my heart burdened be  “What a foolish thing to do”, another part of herself rebuked her. Then, I am still and wait here in the silence That man, who had saved her father, saved the village, and warmly watched over her every day afterward; can she still request something from him who had done so much? Even if she had taken advantage of that kindness, can she be satisfied by just being beside him? Didn’t she dislike to become someone that is only cared and protected by him, but instead strive to become an existence that is needed by him? Until you come and sit awhile with me Although she had immediately admonished herself for that selfish idea, Valetta couldn’t shake free from that alluring temptation. The reason was if she begs Kazura while in tears right now, she had the confidence that Kazura would steer all of his priority to stay at Valetta’s side. You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains This young man, who came from a country called Japan, was a helplessly good natured person. He couldn’t not helping those who asked for his help or depended on him. As a result, he couldn’t spare himself from the possibilities where his personality handicap is exploited. Even when he received respect from the people he saved and thanked him, he never showed even a bit of haughty or conceited behavior. His tendency was remarkably different from people who approach others with goodwill to become close with them.[1] You raise me up to walk on stormy seas Mostly, in contrast to herself. I am strong when I am on your shoulders 「Kazura-sa-……」(Valetta) You raise me up to more than I can be Again, she wanted to throw her selfishness, complaints, and everything to attain his comfort. If she did this then someday he might be able to become her only own. Stimulated by the tempting egoistic justification that suddenly appeared inside her mind, Valetta raised her face. However, the moment she saw Kazura’s eyes that looked towards her with a worried expression, as if it poured cold water on her heart. The delusion inside her head rapidly dispersed. There is no life, no life without its hunger 「Hm?」(Kazura) Each restless heart beats so imperfectly When she saw Kazura replied to her with a smile on his face, there was an obvious fatigue mixed in his expression. There was a dim bag under his eyes and his cheeks were somewhat skinny. Even though, Kazura had just been away from her for less than 3 days. But then you come, and I am filled with wonder It surely was because he had devoted all of his strength during the last 3 days in Isteria for the sake of saving the people of Arcadia. Sometimes I think I glimpse eternity Ever since Kazura returned to the village, Valetta had seen his face repeatedly. Even at the time when the villagers welcomed him at the village’s entrance, they had a conversation while seeing each other face. You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains She need not think for the cause. You raise me up to walk on stormy seas Even so, she completely didn’t notice it. No, it can be said that it was because she didn’t try to notice it. I am strong when I am on your shoulders Until now, Valetta had tried to know more about Kazura, even slightly. So she had observed his expression over and over again to grasp his way of thinking and feeling towards the village as much as possible. That’s why it was the same with Kazura’s physical condition. When he showed even the slightest bit of being tired, she would offer a massage for him or suggest to finish their study session during the night earlier; when she had confirmed that Kazura had slept, then she continued studying by herself. When Valetta came forward with those suggestion, Kazura always declined and said that he is still feeling fine, but she wouldn’t concede. Although she feels happy by Kazura’s kindness, she tried as much as possible to pay attention so that he wouldn’t be burdened too much. If he was left as it is, Kazura would end up trying to help the villagers in working in the fields or collecting firewood, so she was always paying attention so that he didn’t work himself too much. You raise me up to more than I can be ‘And yet despite that’, thought Valetta. ‘What am I doing now?’ She was only thinking about herself and that was similar to not thinking about Kazura’s circumstances at all She continued to be depressed up until several minutes ago, so where had her desire to become an existence that needed by him had gone? You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains When she became depressed by her own accord and irresolutely troubled by her own thoughts, Kazura was devoting all of his efforts for the sake of saving people of Arcadia. Furthermore, when Kazura heard that the village was assaulted by bandits, he immediately returned to the village. You raise me up to walk on stormy seas Her complete change of feeling into one who was obsessed and fueled by the sweet temptation was the worst thing she ever had done. She felt severe disgust on herself. Her mouth parched dry and her breath seemed to stop inside her chest. I am strong when I am on your shoulders 「Ah……I……」(Valetta) You raise me up to more than I can be 「It’s alright. Calm down.」(Kazura) You raise me up to more than I can be Kazura spoke out with the gentlest voice he can make towards Valetta who was in unusual condition and tenderly patted her head. Even so, when he saw that there was no visible change in her, he brought her into his chest and gently hug her. Then he said “it’s alright” repeatedly while continuing to pat her head. *BGM ends* ✦✧✦ *chirp*chirp*chirp* The next morning. Valin, who returned to the residence at some point, had prepared the breakfast and Kazura was currently eating it together with Valin and Valetta. However, the seating position was different from the usual and there was no table conversation. The only sounds available in the living room was sounds of food chewing and the clatters of the wooden utensils.   This extremely complicated atmosphere dominated the living room. You like Kazura, don't you Valetta? Valin should ask her this! 「(……What is this extremely awkward situation?)」(Kazura) There is….. Your IMAGINATION While sipping the piping hot soup made from canned beans and vegetables from the village, Kazura sent a glance towards Valetta. Just like last night, Valetta still had the same depressed expression and feebly brought the food to her mouth. Valetta, you are gonna finish your dessert, and you are gonna like it! Suddenly Kazura felt Valin’s gaze and turned towards him, Valin send a glance as if asking 「What happened?」 I also want to know about this, was something that Kazura had in his mind.   Last night, Kazura kept stayed at Valetta’s side until she calmed down and hug her tightly to comfort her . Of course, he didn’t feel embarrassed at all. Since that action was something that came into his mind when he thought what he can do for Valetta who has suddenly become strange. However, after some time passed, Valetta suddenly said, 「I’m sorry」without having contact with Kazura’s eyes, she separated herself and went to her room. Thus, he arrived at the current situation. I almost get NTR-ed and I only cried for 20 minutes After the breakfast under such complicated mood finished, Valin asked Valetta to do the cleaning, and under the pretext of meeting with the villagers, he went outside while taking Kazura along with him.   「Kazura-san, Valetta’s behavior is really strange.」(Valin)   When Valin arranged so that Kazura and Valetta were alone last night, he was under an impression that Kazura could do something about her. However, he never expected that Valetta’s behavior became even stranger. Last night, when he heard Valetta’s crying from beyond the door, he was optimistic that she would say all the things that she had saved up and threw them all at Kazura. Despite this, her state of affair become deteriorated. He honestly didn’t know what was going on.   「Yes, but I also didn’t know anything at all. During the time when I’m not in the village, was there any change at Valetta-san?」(Kazura)   「Something is it?…… There is……」(Valin) Once there was an ugly Rata. He was so ugly that everyone died! The end. When Kazura asked, Valin though back at Valetta’s situation during the last several days. If something came to his mind, it was…… That didn't help at all! 「After parting with Kazura-san in Isteria, Valetta became depressed all the time. I thought that she would cheer up a bit after she met Kazura-san again, so…」(Valin)   「O, oh」(Kazura)   Valin had given an unanticipated information, that made Kazura replied with a troubled reaction. If she felt depressed after parting with him, then that means it was hard for her to be separated from him. Because the one who said this information was none other than the father of the person in question, it was quite a queer conversation.   「Also, when the bandits attacked the residence, Valetta was pushed down by one of the bandits. Fortunately, the bandit was defeated before he could do something, but……」(Valin)   「Eh!?」(Kazura)   Although Kazura felt somewhat happy at Valin’s previous information, he was surprised at what Valin had said just now. If she was pushed down by a bandit, then that means she was going to be raped. In most cases, it wouldn’t be strange if she got a trauma.   So that means. Last night, when Kazura hugged Valetta to calm her down, there was a high possibility that he had stepped on a big landmine. Instead of calming her like he had intended, it might have opened her wound. Thinking along this line, then he could somehow understand Valetta’s behavior from last night until this morning.   「……Valin-san」(Kazura)   「Yes?」(Valin)   「Please tell me more about that incident, anything is fine.」(Kazura)   「Y-yes.」(Valin)   Valin was not really understood the current situation, so Kazura let out a deep sigh.   ✦✧✦   One hour later. Kazura explained the situation with a young village girl who was close with Valetta and request her to do an appropriate care and follow up on Valetta.   「Actually, I want to do it myself, but I can only leave this to you since you are also a female. I apologize for the sudden request, but I really hope for your help.」(Kazura)   「I don’t really mind it, though……」(Village Girl) "Not when I shift into Maximum Overdrive." The village girl, who had heard the story from Kazura, showed an expression of not fully understand the situation in any way, but for now, she tried to listen to the story and accepted Kazura’s request. Then, he stealthily returned to the residence and handed over a herb blend to her, then he asked her to ask Valetta how to make herb tea and drank the tea together with her.   After receiving the agreement with the village girl, Kazura headed towards the direction where Isaac and the other soldiers had camped near the village’s entrance.   「Good morning, Kazura-sama」(Issac)   When Kazura arrived at the village’s entrance, Isaac and Havel were already waiting for him. Maybe because both of them had a good night rest, something that they haven’t experienced for quite some time, their expression was cheerful and their physical condition was in top shape. Their situation was in contrast with Kazura who couldn’t get a good night sleep due to being worried about many things. The Inner Machinations of his Mind are an Enigma 「Good morning. Was there any changes in the surroundings?」(Kazura) We should take Grisea Village and push it somewhere else! by Havel 「We have found no problem so far. We had periodically sent out several scouts to the surroundings, but there was no one who were approaching the village.」(Issac)   Maybe because of the attack on Grisea Village, Isaac was being quite cognizant about someone shadowing them. Since the veteran soldier in the Nobles Guard didn’t found anything when scouting the surroundings, then that means the surroundings should be really safe and secure.   「Do you know how soon the next carriages convoy will arrive?」(Kazura)   「I believed since they should have departed from Isteria this morning, then at the latest they will arrive at tomorrow night. Since we had set up patrol along the way, Kazura-sama will be informed several hours before their arrival.」(Ha)   「(In other words, I will have a free time for about 2 days.)」(Kazura)   After hearing Havel’s reply, Kazura began to calculate backward about the actions he had chosen until now. In two days, 3000 bags and a lot of carriages and wagons to carry it would arrive. In his original plan, he would make them wait in the village’s entrance for one or two days. During this time, Kazura planned to go to Japan and prepared the items. However, when he knew that Grisea Village was attacked, he immediately departed from Isteria, and as the result, it had deviated from the schedule of his original plan by a bit. However, this was unexpectedly enabled him to use the time more efficiently.   「I understand. Then, while waiting for the convoy’s arrival, I will begin the preparation. Since I will go to God’s Realm for a moment, I wouldn’t be able to be contacted, but please wait in this place without worry.」(Kazura)   「I understand. We are in your debt.」(Issac)   With Isaac and Havel bowed respectfully while sending him off, Kazura headed towards the tree grove that was connected to Japan.   ✦✧✦   「Hah, I feel that it has been a really long time since I returned.」(Kazura)   Exiting the stone passage, Kazura had returned to the Japan’s mansion again after seven days. During these seven days, as a result of the bewildering change in Kazura’s surrounding, when he returned to this mansion that’s always unchanging, he was wrapped in an indescribable sense of relief. and CHOOOCOLAAAAAAATE! After enjoying the view in the mansion, Kazura took out his cellphone from the pocket and turned it on. Afterward, just like usual, he began to search for the information he wanted on the internet.   「Umm, compost direct seller…… Oh, the location might be near.」(Kazura)   He searched using the keyword『Compost direct seller Gunma』 and then immediately dozens of result from the search were displayed on the webpage. Among them, there was one that located relatively close to the mansion,『Gunmaa Ranch Ltd.』. Kazura confirmed that this company directly sell compost from the ranch. The ranch also produced compost in a large amount, so the available stocked amount was also huge.   If it only in a small amount, like the aid he provided to Grisea Village, then it was adequate by just purchasing fertilizer in Home Center, however, the scale of the current aid was different. Just like what he had seen when travelling to Isteria before, he needed to restore the huge grain producing region that was covered by farm fields from one horizon to another.   Nonetheless, from his experience with the fertilizer usage in Grisea Village, he knew that even by using fertilizer commonly available in Japan, the crops would immediately grow in abnormal speed. For the time bein, he would try 1 : 10 dilution and depending on the crops condition then perhaps he could dilute it to 1 : 100 without a problem. Even so, the amount of fertilizer was unlike the scale he had done in Grisea Village.   「Whoa, 1 ton is just around 3000 yen, even inexpensive should have a limit. I wonder if this is the market price……」[2](Kazura)   While surprised by the direct selling price that was far lower than the fertilizer he had acquired in the Home Center until now, Kazura confirmed the address of the farm and began to walk towards the mansion entrance to board his car, when he stopped. Then, he turned his sight at the tatami that covered the floor where he had walked until now.   「……This… As expected, wouldn’t the floor damaged this time?」(Kazura)   This time, the amount of the compost that Kazura would carry will be at least 500 kilograms. Although at that amount, he still could transport it using the pull cart, but only using his own body to pull it would be a bone breaking effort. Therefore he thought to purchase a four-wheeled buggy or a small tractor to pull the cart.   However, he just noticed that his plan had a glaring problem. When he first arrived at this mansion, Kazura had heard from his father, Shinji, that this mansion was something that had been handed down through the generations. It was a wooden mansion that looked like an antique building, so what would happen to it when a cart with 500 kilograms of compost and a buggy who pulled it, do a round trip multiple times? Not only it would leave a hole on the floor but it wouldn’t be strange if the floor collapsed. As it is, he had done many trips using pull cart until now atop the tatami. Even if he couldn’t see it, perhaps the floor had reached its limit.   While having such worrying thoughts, Kazura grabbed a tatami side and lifted it. Then, at the unexpected sight of what lies under the tatami, Kazura unconsciously opened his eyes wide. It took Kazura 51 Chapters to Master this What lies under the tatami was iron plates that were covering the whole surface.   ☾☽☾☽☾☽☾☽☾☽☾☽☾☽☾☽☾☽☾☽       Dark Valetta: “Give yourself to the Dark Side, Valetta. It is the only way you can obtain happiness. Yes, your thoughts betray you. Your feelings for the village are strong. Especially for... Kazura. So, you have a crush on him. Your feelings have now betrayed him, too. You were wise to hide your feeling from him. Now your failure is complete. If you will not turn to the Dark Side... then perhaps he will... seduced by a femme fatale or captured by a jailbait."   Misunderstanding… Misunderstanding everywhere……   There is more about the Mansion than meets the eye… and no the Mansion won’t transform into a giant robot, so keep those explosive away Mr. Bay.   Next chapters: Conversations and conversations and conversations. This is slice of life series after all…         [1] In other words, Kazura lack any ulterior motive. [2] (EDN: Seriously? *Google around* the cheapest i found is at least $90, you sure not missing a 0?) Nope. The RAW really said: 3000円. That’s why Kazura was like: Holy Earthworm, the price is so dirt cheap that real dirt is more expensive. For comparison: In Rakuten, the cheapest compost cost 2700 Yen for 300 kilograms. If you buy from a farm/ranch directly you could get 1 Liter of compost for about 50 Yen.
