A giant bear is standing in front of me.
No, there is a giant beast standing before me.
Really?
I'm not dreaming, am I? No, it can't be.
[Raises his head.]
No, where is this beast of looking?
Do it see me?
Need to escape.
Come on, run away!
Move!
Move!
Mo...ove!
"RRROAAAAAR..."
[swallow]
The beast began to lift its claws. I have to dodge. Move! You are going to die here. When you die, it's all over. What is your dream? You haven't got a girlfriend yet. Are you just going to die like this? Come on, move!
Move!
Run away!
Come on, move!
Run away!
I managed to dodge.
Why the hell is it so cold in here? My body barely managed to move. One moment too late, I would have gone to another world. Come on, get up and run.
I managed to dodge, but only delayed my own death for a few moments. Come on, get up.
Yes, get up!
Get up and run!
Run as hard as you can!
Come on, you can. Run as fast as you can.
"Huff, huff... huff..."
"ROARR... RROOAAARRRR..."
Shit, this beast caught up to me. This beast is too fast. I can't run away.
Damn
I had no hope from the beginning.
Reading on Amazon or a pirate site? This novel is from Royal Road. Support the author by reading it there.
I heard that a bear is faster than a man. This beast is faster than a bear.
My throat is freezing. It's getting harder and harder to breathe.
"huff... puff... huff..."
"Ahhh"
Is that the way to die?
Does my life have to end so soon?
I wanted to fulfill my dream and die...
Couldn't get a girlfriend.
To die so sadly...
[...]
What is that?
Red haired...?
A woman?
A woman with a sword?
Is a woman running to me?
"Get out of the way"
It seems to be saying something?
"GET OUT OF THE WAY"
"...ssschwing... ...SWISH"
The giant beast's head was chopped off with one chop.
This woman...
This woman is not like the normal women I meet every day. It's in a fighting anime that I watch every day. The woman whom I wanted to meet the most. The woman I wanted to say, "Wow, you're amazing," is standing in front of me.
I realized the moment the woman sped past me, her bright red hair and her beautiful face shining so vividly in my eyes. This is not the world I know. A world of sword fighting. A world where the strong survive and the weak perish. And a world inhabited by women so beautiful that you couldn't impossible see them in your previous world.
She is walking to me.
What should I do?
Do I talk about something?
What to talk about?
No ideas coming. My brain was just blown away by her beauty. Can't think of anything else.
She came and stood in front of me.
What to talk about?
Why doesn't she say anything?
I noticed that she didn't show any sign of surprise when she saw me. Of course, she should be surprised. It's strange to wear thin pants and a shirt in this cold. Then she didn't seem surprised at all. Why is she staring at me without saying a word? I need to say something. But will she understand me?
"Hello? Thanks for saving me."
"My name is Usun."
He didn't answer at all. It seems that you do not understand what I said. Of course, a different language is spoken here. How to make yourself understood? The language problem is also difficult. The previous world was not created to learn English. How to learn the local language? If you don't learn, you can't live. It is good if you know the local language from the beginning.
"Don't worry, I was just passing through the area."
"...?"
Did I just catch what she said? Did she just tell me "not to worry"? Why do I understand what she said? This is strange. She just didn't speak our language. So what does that mean? Did I speak their language first? No, this is not the time to think about it.
I just freeze to death.
"Sorry, you don't have any warmer clothes?"
"None"
"Unfortunately..."
What to do? I survived the beast, but I will freeze to death. Why am I so unlucky?
"Orso's skin is warm."
"Orso?"
"You mean this animal?"
"Wait a minute, by 'warm skin' do you mean this animal's skin is skinning?"
I have never had an animal skin skinning before. How can I skin a beast? But if I don't skin it, I'll freeze to death. I need to do this. I can't do everything after being rescued by a woman. Plus I'm worried about what she'll think of me. I need to look strong. I need to like her. If he abandons me, I have no chance of survival in this wasteland. It cannot be ruled out that such a beast will appear again.
Most importantly, she is very beautiful.
"Miss, you don't have a knife?"
"use it"
"Thank you, miss."
So how do I get skin of it?
Do I try to get skin from the cut?
Wow, the skin is very thick.
It seems to be harder than I thought.
But this beast is huge. His name is Orso. I mistook it for a bear at first. But this bear is twice as big and has pointed ears. It has a slimmer body than a bear.
"Hey can you hurry up"
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry"
[Few moments later]
"This is your knife, I cleaned it"
"Follow me. If I leave you, you will die."
"Ah well, thank you miss."
"Don't walk away from me, stop calling me madam. Call me Sestia."
