In an onsen ryokan that can be said to be filled with otherworld components, Lilia and her friends titled their heads multiple times as they looked at the various things in the room, unable to understand the purpose of many of them.
[……H- Hmmm. It seems like it would be better not to touch the things we don’t understand.]
[You’re right. Let’s bring in someone among the otherworlders like Miyama-sama, Yuzuki-sama or Kusunoki-sama to teach us about them. We can just use the magic tools in our magic box, and perhaps those magic tools whose uses we understand.]
Lunamaria also agrees with the opinion of the bewildered Lilia. Since they’re items installed inside a room, the possibility of them being dangerous is low, but there’s a risk of breaking something if they use it incorrectly. These are items bestowed upon Lilia by an otherworld God, things one wouldn’t see in Trinia…… Since they don’t understand their value, they concluded that it’s better to be cautious and not touch them carelessly.
[How should I say this…… maybe this is how Kaito-san and the others felt when they came to our world.]
[Indeed, it does feel unsettling when everything you see is new to you. I thought I understood the hardships Kaito-san and the others experienced for suddenly being brought to another world, but experiencing it like this makes me realize that my understanding might have been too naive.]
While Sieglinde surveys the room filled with unknown items, she mutters that Kaito and the others must have felt the same when they were first summoned to another world. Lilia, agreeing with this sentiment, nods with a somewhat somber expression on her face.
As the three concluded that they would use what they could understand and not touch what they didn’t understand, for the time being, they sat down on the zabuton as Sieglinde instructed them.
[For now, let’s have something to drink…… This is tea, isn’t it? Sieg, do you know what tea this is?]
[I think they called it ryokucha green tea. My father got it from his friend, so I knew how to brew it to some extent, so I’ll brew it for us.]
When Lunamaria asked after looking at the items provided in the room, Sieglinde seemed to know and started preparing to brew the tea.
[……Arehh? Speaking of which, Lilia. Who is it that prepares this tea and other things provided here and how are they provided?]
[According to Eden-sama, they’re automatically refilled…… Also, the “display?” function that adjusts the world allows me to adjust various things so…… Oya?]
While responding to Lunamaria, displaying the control interface in the air, her authority as the owner of this world, Lilia noticed that among the displayed items, the tab “onsen ryokan” had been added.
When she tried operating it, she realized that tasks such as preparing meals, getting the onsen ready and cleaning the room can all be done just by operating the display. Though momentarily impressed by the item beyond her common sense, as to be expected by something bestowed upon her by a God, she soon discovered something within the “onsen ryokan” tab, the “Magic Tools Explanation” button, which made her eyes light up.
[Luna! Sieg! It seems that Eden-sama has prepared a detailed description of the magic tools in this ryokan, which are modeled after mechanical items from the other world. In other words, if we browse through this, we’ll know how to use these mysterious items!]
[Ohh, nothing really escapes her thoughts. Well then, this one on this desk…… Fumu…… Ahh, there’s hot water in this vessel huh. Is it perhaps…… some sort of magic box that can preserve temperature in it?]
[A magic box restricted to hot water? For the time being, I’ll use that to make our tea.]
Once they understood how to use the items in the room, the things they were able to do immediately increased. Sieglinde began to use the pot to make tea and Lilia up the TV that Sieglinde had said she didn’t understand a while ago.
[……Ahh, I see, so this is the TV that Kaito-san and the others had been talking about before. It seems to be something similar to Image Reflection Magic Tool……]
[The technology that’s developing rapidly lately? Does that mean it has already been put to practical use in the other world……]
[According to Kaito-san, there’s at least one of these TVs in most households.]
[Is that right!? As expected of the other world…… Since we’re at it, Lili, let’s use it!]
After hearing Lilia’s explanation, Lunamaria also seemed interested, and after Sieglinde, who had prepared tea, joined them a little later, the three of them read the explanation and used the TV remote to operate it.
[……These are images of the other world…… They look different from Kaito-san and the others, so they’re probably other species?]
[As I recall, people in their world record what had actually occurred there, right? I see, so monsters also exist in the other world.]
[Ahh, I heard a little about it from Kuromueina-sama when we went swimming on the beach. If I remember correctly, there’s apparently something called tsudi in the other world, which was built on a different set of laws……]
After they turned it on, the TV just happened to show anime, and the three of them looked at it with very interested expressions on their faces. Later on, Kaito had a hard time explaining their misunderstandings about the 2D world…… but that’s a story for another time.
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [They surprisingly had a solid support system huh.]
Makina : [Of course, who do you think I am?]
Serious-senpai : [The craziest person in this series……]
