Kitamura: Nagame, how do you know so much at only 13?
Nagame: Well, Kitamura, before my parents were killed by those criminals, they used to tell me stories about this dragon and other things.
Nagame: By the way, who's the author of this book, Kitamura?
Kitamura: The author's name? *Kitamura opens the book*
Kitamura: Well, it's a bit hard to read, but it says here, Kenjito Mashito.
Nagame: Well, I expected that.
Nagame: My father told me about this Kenjito. He was a guy who believed that people from other worlds could come to this world, but he was labeled a lunatic and brutally killed because they thought he was just crazy.
Kitamura: Wow, you really know your stuff, huh? I just opened the book to see how I could go back. I'll read it more carefully.
*Kitamura sits in front of a tree and starts reading*
Reading the Book: I am Kenjito Mashito. People are trying to kill me because I believe that people from other worlds can come here.
It all started when I was 5 years old. I went exploring a cave and found some letters written on a stone, in an unknown language. When I looked closer, I saw a skeleton wearing completely different clothes. It looked like someone trying to survive. I soon realized that it wasn't something from this world.
After researching the subject a lot, I started spreading this information. However, people didn't believe me, and now they want to kill me. Before I die, I want to say: if you are a person from another world who is reading this, I discovered a way for you to go home, but it will be practically impossible.
You will have to get the Miners Crystal, protected by the Dragon Klarius, the most powerful living being in this world. My research has shown that this crystal can fulfill any wish, including taking you to your world.
That's all. I hope someone from another world reads this book.
-Sincerely for one last time, Kenjito Mashito.
*Kitamura is surprised after reading this book*
Kitamura: Wow, this Kenjito must have suffered a lot. I just finished reading everything here, Nagame.
Nagame: Yes, I think so too. He was very wronged in my opinion. I don't think he should have been killed for that reason.
Kitamura: Nagame, I'm going to take this book with me. Let's continue our journey to Galdoria. Let's go.
*Nagame smiles*
Nagame: Of course, Kitamura.
*They walk for a long time until they reach Galdoria*
*I didn't mention it in the second chapter, but that man gave them a map to help them reach Galdoria*
Strong Man: Hello, what brings two children like you to Galdoria? Where are your parents?
Nagame: Well, my parents... they're dead.
Kitamura: Well, mine are very far away, very far away from here.
Strong Man: What? Dead? Far away? Is everything okay? Tell me your situation, please.
Kitamura: It's okay. Well, I'm Kitamura, and I'm from another world, and this is Nagame. I saved her from some criminals who tried to kill her.
Strong Man: What? Another world? Look, stop playing around with that. The last man who touched on this subject was killed because they thought he was a lunatic.
Kitamura: Look, I wish I was lying, but it's the pure truth. I ended up being transported here, I don't know how, but one thing is certain, I'm not and never was from this world.
Strong Man: I still don't believe you, but my name is Shigaru, nice to meet you. What brings you to Galdoria?
Kitamura: Well, a man from a village said that this was a place where we could get stronger, and we've had to fight many times.
Nagame: Yes, it's true. Kitamura almost died several times.
Kitamura: Well, can we know where we can get stronger?
Shigaru: Well, this business of getting stronger is for adults, not for mere children like you. I'm sorry, but I can't guide you on this.
*Kitamura is indignant*
A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
Kitamura: Wait a minute? You're telling me we came all this way to not even get what we wanted, which was to get stronger??, no way!
Shigaru: Hey kid, calm down, I don't want to argue with a child like you.
Kitamura: You called me what, you pest???
Nagame: C-Calm down, Kitamura.
Shigaru: You called me what, you brat???
Kitamura: Let's go, Nagame.
*They walk away from Shigaru and sit near a house*
Kitamura: How can we get stronger???, I want to get out of this world.
Nagame: *Strokes Kitamura's head* Calm down, Kitamura, we'll figure something out. *smiles shyly*
Kitamura: Thank you, Nagame. *embarrassed*
Kitamura: Let's try one more time, Nagame.
Giving up is not an option for me.
Nagame: Okay.
Kitamura: Hey Shigaru, I'm sorry for calling you a jerk. Please take us to the training.
Shigaru: Kitamura, you idiot, I already told you, you're too young for this, this training is for adults, you're a child.
Kitamura: AND WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM?? CHILDREN CAN FIGHT TOO, DIDN'T YOU KNOW??!
Shigaru: Shut up, you stupid kid.
Nagame: K-Kitamura, calm down, please.
Kitamura: You know what?, I'm going to get out of here soon.
Let's go, Nagame.
*They walk away from him*
Kitamura: We have to find a way to get stronger somehow.
*Nagame finds a small bag on the ground*
Nagame: Kitamura?, what's this??
Kitamura: Ahm?, Let me see, Nagame.
*Kitamura opens the bag and finds many coins*
Kitamura: Wow, a bag with many coins.
Nagame: Wow, what can we do with this?
Kitamura: You know, there's no one around, we can't return it to the owner, because we don't know who it is.
Kitamura: Nagame, let's buy some equipment for ourselves. We can get stronger with them.
Nagame: Okay, Kitamura.
Kitamura: But where would that be? Let's ask someone here.
*They approach an old man*
Kitamura: Hey sir, can you tell us where we can buy armor, swords, that kind of equipment?
Old Man: Hello, what brings two children here?
Kitamura: Excuse me, we wanted to buy two swords.
Seller: Huh?, I can't sell two swords to children, sorry, but I can't.
*Kitamura speaks softly*
Kitamura: Nagame, let's say it's for our parents. We'll have to lie to buy this.
Nagame: Okay, Kitamura.
Kitamura: Actually, sir, this sword is for my father. He needs them.
Seller: Okay, fine. So, I have these two models here, which one do you prefer? I have the iron sword, which is resistant, and this stone one, which is harder.
Kitamura: How much are they?
Seller: The Iron Sword is 20 gold coins, and the stone one is 10 silver coins.
Kitamura: Nagame, how much do we have?
Nagame: We have 3 gold coins and 20 silver coins.
Kitamura: We'll take two stone swords.
*Nagame pays*
Kitamura: Thank you, sir.
Seller: You're welcome!
Kitamura: Well, Nagame, it looks like we'll have to leave Galdoria. Let's go.
*Kitamura and Nagame start walking towards the village of the man who told them about the city of Galdoria*
Kitamura: Wow, that little village is kind of far, isn't it, Nagame???
Nagame: Yes, Kitamura, we'll have to walk a bit.
*They arrive at the village after walking for a long time*
Kitamura: Wow, *very tired* Where are the people from this village? When we arrived here, there were many people.
*A villager runs towards him*
Villager: Kitamura?, Nagame??, Is that you???
*Desperately*
Kitamura: Yes, it us
Aqui está a tradução com a palavra "villager":
Villager: Help me, please! Crying
Kitamura: C-Calm down, tell me what's happening.
Villager: A-After you killed that monster and went on your way to Galdoria, a mysterious hooded person kidnapped everyone here and killed three people. I woke up to the screams of people after seeing them dead, and then I saw her kidnapping a person. I hid and ended up seeing that she uses teleportation powers because she teleported with the people. I don't know where they are now, but she kidnapped my whole family. Help me, please!
Kitamura: W-What???, how do you expect us to help with that?
Villager: P-Please, I don't want to be without my family.
Kitamura thinks I don't think anyone else deserves to go through what Nagame went through, I'm going to help him.
Kitamura: Okay, I won't let anyone die, you can count on me. We need to gather clues here in this village to find out where this person is.
Kitamura draws his sharp stone sword
Kitamura: Nagame, let's go?
Nagame: Smiles Of course, Kitamura.
Kitamura: Let's go then.
Kitamura: Nagame, look on the right-hand side of the houses, I'll go on the left.
Nagame: Okay!
They search all the houses
Kitamura: Nagame, look what I found, a map.
Nagame: This is it?, a map?, it leads to the northern region from here.
Kitamura: Well, Villager, what's your name?
Villager: My name is Shimetzu, Nice to meet you.
Kitamura: Okay, we'll follow this map. Take care of yourself.
Nagame: Let's go, Kitamura.
They spend some time walking
Kitamura: This place is very far, we must have been walking for hours.
Nagame: True, Kitamura.
Suddenly a figure emerges from the shadows of a forest nearby
Mysterious Person: Look, only?, two people??
Kitamura: Who are you??? Draws his sword Stay back.
Mysterious Person: Calm down, calm down. Introduce yourselves first.
Kitamura: My name is Kitamura Naguyo.
Nagame: Mine is Nagame Shioka.
Kitamura: What do you want?
Mysterious Person: SO IT WAS YOU WHO KILLED MY SON??
Nagame: What???
Kitamura: Huh?, Killed your son??, What are you talking about? We would never do something like that!!
Mysterious Person: STOP PRETENDING TO BE FOOLS!!, YOU KILLED MY SON, IN THAT VILLAGE, I SAW HIM DEAD, HIS BODY IN THAT VILLAGE
Kitamura: Wait?, Are you talking about that monster??
Nagame: That was your son???
Mysterious Person: I CREATED THAT MONSTER MYSELF, YOU KILLED HIM
Kitamura: WELL, THEN YOU CAN PREPARE YOURSELF, I'M GOING TO KILL YOU BOTH!!
Several energy balls begin to surround this person as they fly
Kitamura draws his sword: Nagame, stay behind me.
Nagame: Kitamura, stop this, you've almost died twice, I-I starts crying I don't want to lose you, I don't want to lose anyone else.
Kitamura: Nagame, my goal is to return to my world, but until I can, I'll do everything to protect you, so stay behind me. I love you and I don't want you to die, Nagame, please, stay behind me.
Nagame's eyes shine after hearing that he loves her, she runs behind Kitamura and hugs him from behind.
