Chapter 016 “Stella . Is what you said the truth?”
“Yeah… I’m not a human being… I was tasked to observe Nina-chan and Yu . ”
(TL note: oh no! What is this? I didn’t believe I translate it wrong but since the word was split with… It have a 5% of being wrong . )
Stella already had trouble breathing .
“Stella, please have a peace of mind . I will protect Yu . It’s only natural, because he is my friend . ”
“Thank you… Nina-chan… Yu… you make… my life… worth it……”
Stella let out her last breath . Her face was smiling and calm . Nina couldn’t hold back her tears .
“Stella… rest . . in . . peace…”
8 hours later, Yu came back . He saw crying Nina and fell down on his knees after realizing that Stella wasn’t moving anymore .
“I… was too late… . No… . There’s still time…”
He couldn’t accept her death . Yu tried to make her drink the potion he made . It has dripped down from her mouth .
“Grandmother . . Please, drink… Please…”
There was no reply from Stella .
“Aaaaaaaahhhrrggghhh . . ”
I applied heal on her body . I healed her using a much greater amount of mana than that usually required by a normal heal . However, there was no effect . Heal is a magic for restoring the received damage .
For the dead . . It was useless…
When his MP ran out, Yu sank down to his knees .
“Yu… Huhuhu… . ”
I didn’t realize that there was a stream of water coming out from my eyes .
After a while, Yu and Nina calmed down . They have discussed on what to do next .
“Let’s make a grave for her . ” With her eyes still reddened, Nina said to the sitting Yu .
“Stella-san said that she was glad that she could spend her days with you . ”
“She wasn’t suffering? Living with me . . Did she really say that?”
“Yu, she was smiling in the end . ”
I looked at grandma’s face and realized .
“We will bury her tomorrow . Let me stay with her tonight . ”
“Okay…”
“I wonder what should I do now . ”
“I’ll go to Comer city . There are lots of monsters there and I need to get used to male adventurers . It was also Stella’s request . ”
“Please don’t go . . Without grandma . . Without you . . There is no reason for me to stay . ”
“Of course you are coming with me . Aren’t we friends?”
That day I stayed at grandma Stella’s side without sleeping . In the morning I erected a grave for her .
“Grandmother, I’ll be leaving the village . When I come back I will bring you lots of souvenirs . I’ll even tell you about my journey . Please look after me . ”
“Stella, please leave Yu to me . I’m also an adventurer, so there should be no problem . ”
“Oh? Is that coming out from someone whom I train?”
“I’m older than you! Humph . ”
She was pouting but it was just a joke . I bowed to her and said “Thank you . ” .
I left as soon as possible . If I were to stay any longer I might have started grieving again . Honestly, I don’t know when I will return to this village .
We had to move through the village to reach the town . We met several villagers on the way .
“You guys, what’s with your appearances and luggage . Are you going to leave the village?”
The way villagers talked with Nina was different from when they talked to me . However, Nina’s expression was grim .
“Because grandma is dead, I have no reason to stay here anymore . You have been trying to kick me out anyway . So it’s benefitting both of us . ”
“But, we are lacking adventurers . Only you and Sermat are left . And who is this grandma?”
I feel that something is weird . Was that sarcasm? He was the one that told me that grandma Stella overworked herself . Is he playing the fool?
(Tl note: here is our author grand ability: confusion . . Nina and the villager was talking then he put Yu inner monologue . )
“It’s grandma Stella!”
“Stella?”
The expression of the villager turned strange .
“Yu, let’s go . ”
I wanted to talk but Nina pulled my hand .
——– “Chief… How dare they leave us like that . Anyway, did any of you know Stella?”
“No . . It’s the first time I hear that name . ”
(tl note: what is this? Confusion master author) —— “Nina . . My aim is to be the strongest adventurer . ”
“Don’t worry . With my power and yours combined, we can aim to be the strongest easily . ”
“Oh? Where is that confidence coming from?”
Finally, after almost a year after I have arrived in this world, I left the village to become an adventurer .
(TL note: did we have that much time slip? Anyway the first arc of village is ended . Is it the end of the first book? Idk because I translated from the WN . The chapter was shorter but it took more time to translate thanks for the author confusion skill lol)
