Seems Like My Future Wife
I remembered something from a
little while ago.
『*Waaaaaaaaaaa*』 (????)
『Shut up already. Stop crying~ If you came this far then it’s a place you know
right?』 (????)
『Hey, Velt! Be friendly.』 (????)
『Making a young girl cry is
bad!』 (????)
Five years ago, our family
found a very young girl while on the way to the capital. The child was the
princess of the kingdom, who stealthily escaped from the royal capital to the
outside and had gotten lost in a wheat field, whom we then took care of.
『But, but, I thought I
wouldn’t find anybody.』 (Forna)
『What, so weak.』 (Velt)
『Eeeeh!? I’m scaaared.』 (Forna)
She continued to roam around
while nobody was walking through the fields, and her loneliness, anxiety, and
fear had reached its peak In the instant she was reassured by meeting me, all
of her emotions were let out as tears streamed down her eyes. However, even
though I didn’t have Asakura Ryuuma’s memories, I was still a rebellious kid
that wasn’t sensible nor gentle when I spoke.
『Hey, you, think I’m scary?』 (Velt)
『Fue? ......No.」 (Forna)
『Then, it’s alright. You don’t
know right? In this field I’m the number one baddest guy around you know?』 (Velt)
When I think about it now, I
honestly didn’t understand the meaning of my words. Rather, it’s embarrassing.
『......Yeah!』 (Forna)
And so, the brat felt
something reassuring from me and was for some reason relieved, causing her to
regain her composure. After that she tightly squeezed my hand, refusing to let
go until we reached the castle. Even Forna was a cute kid at that age. However,
a few days later, Forna had discovered that her magical talent towered above
the rest. Since she realized that she was also stronger than the average me,
she completely changed her attitude, and now acts as if she is the older
sister.
「Hey, Forna」 (Velt)
「What is it?」 (Forna)
「Have you umm, ever been to
another country?」 (Velt)
Before I knew it she had
joined her hand with mine, humming a song. When I asked, she had a surprised
look, then smiled.
「I am a princess. It is
natural that I attend parties and events in foreign countries, even though we
are at war with them right now, I have interacted with demons and demi-humans
before.」 (Forna)
Although she was a brat who
lost her way in a wheat field and cried, in just a few years she had become a
splendid individual that I admired a bit.
「*Sigh* Whatever country and
whatever race, it seems like just another trivial matter for you doesn’t it?
Just like going out and visiting a commoner’s house.」 (Velt)
「No, I used to think that way
as well, but when I spoke about it to the prince of another country, he laughed
at me with scorn. That really irritated me! No matter how much I told him about
Velt, obasama, and ojisama, being intimate with low class commoners was
impossible for high class nobles like him to understand, I was in a crisis I
could not manage. Either way I was really irritated!」 (Forna)
(TN: Obasama and ojisama
refer to Velt's parents, Aruna and Bonapa respectively.)
Well, what the prince said
was the truth, wasn’t it?
「Even though that prince told
me he was my fiancé, I completely refused him.」 (Forna)
「*Sigh*」 (Velt)
「Wait a minute, Velt, are you
listening?」 (Forna)
「Aah, the prince pissed you
off right?」 (Velt)
「Not that part, the part where
I refused him as my fiancé!」 (Forna)
「Oh, I see.」 (Velt)
「W-Why, even though I refused
the engagement, you do not want to know the reason?」 (Forna)
「Because he pissed you off
right?」 (Velt)
「T-that is true, but, you see,
since a few years ago I had already decided who was going to be my husband.」 (Forna)
「*Sigh*」 (Velt)
「*Fufufu* Velt, do you know? Do
you know who I am going to marry in the future?」 (Forna)
「I don’t particularly mind who
it is.」 (Velt)
「Do mind it!」 (Forna)
This precocious brat. And
she’s noisy too. Although our bodies were of the same age, even if someone
proposed marriage to her it wouldn’t be surprising. Well, whoever her partner
is, it’d probably be the same. As expected, for me, I loved that person.
「Kimino......Mina......」 (Velt)
「Kimino Mina? What’s with that
all of a sudden? Who is that?」 (Forna)
「Huh?」 (Velt)
Who? That’s right, she was
someone nobody knew, she was a girl from Asakura Ryuuma’s school back in his
world.
「I have...... someone that I
like.」 (Velt)
「Aah, I see...... Eh?」 (Forna)
Even now I remember. From how
loud she was to the fussy smile that matched her, it was a spectacle that never
escaped my eyes. But I can’t do anything. It’s annoying that I couldn’t
do anything, and since I remember Asakura Ryuuma’s memories, no matter how many
times I remember, it still frustrates me. If anything, if I were reborn in my
original world, I would be crying in front of her grave.
「*U-u-u, UWAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaa*」 (Forna)
「Oi, why are you crying all of
a sudden!?」 (Velt)
「*Hic* *Hic* W-who is it!? Who
is that girl!? Who in the world is she!?」 (Forna)
「Huh? She’s doesn’t have
anything to do with you.」 (Velt)
「No way, never! Velt, Velt is
mine! No! NO!」 (Forna)
Why, and for what reason, was
I reborn in this world? I want someone to tell me what I should do.
「Oh, Velt made the princess
cry!」 (Soldier A)
「Oh my, keep your lover's
quarrel in moderation, you two.」 (Soldier B)
I then realized that we
finally made it to the royal capital. A large circular wall encased the
capital, with a gate located in each of the cardinal directions. Guards were
stationed at each one of these enormous gates. However, there was no need for
formalities, a commoner child and the princess were holding hands and entering
was a charming sight that made them smile.
「Aah, it’s Velt, and he’s
holding the princess’ hand~ They’re husband and wife~ Hyu Hyu!」 (Soldier C)
「Forna is crying! Velt made
her cry! That’s no good, no good you know!」 (Soldier D)
「Oi, Velt! Some good fish came
in boy. The other day, your dad took care of us. Come take our reward for him
later!」 (Soldier E)
Stalls and houses were lined
up on our right and left, and people were going back and forth. In a way that’s
how a large country should be, but everyone greeted Forna and me like it was
natural, I felt bitter. Full of smiles and overflowing with energy, it was
representative of a great country.
「Oi, quit crying already.」 (Velt)
「Uu, but, but.」 (Forna)
「Fine, if you become an
amazing woman in the future, I’ll marry you then.」 (Velt)
「Really?」 (Forna)
「Uh huh.」 (Velt)
「It is a promise then! It is
an absolute promise!」 (Forna)
「Yeah yeah.」 (Velt)
Well, if by that time you
still love me, we’ll talk then. To be honest, there probably isn’t much of a
difference between kids and their first love in this world and my previous
world. As for me, things going on around me are going to become a pain. Hurry
up and stop crying so I can finish this errand, I want to go home.
Then, at that moment, I heard
the sound of hooves gradually approaching from a distance. As I turned my head,
there was a knight straddled on a horse, but he vigorously passed through the
gate without stopping.
「A messenger!」 (Civilian A)
A great number of people had
noticed, and the knight shouted.
「The Bolbardié Kingdom has
collapsed! It was devastated by 『Demon King Vesparda’s Forces』! The nation’s alert level has been raised! Please refrain
from leaving for a period of time!」 (Knight)
Something like this
unexpectedly happened, and hearing the report of the collapse of another
country, the expressions of the carefree group of people changed.
「Bolbardié did? That’s the
country on our western border!」 (Civilian B)
「By Vesparda, you mean 『Dragonshark』 of the 『Seven Great Demon Kings』’ country? There was a rumor they brought some very
tough demon warriors with them, but what happened to the people at Bolbardié?
Don’t tell me, did they kill all of them?」 (Civilian C)
「Wait a second, then will this
country be next......?」 (Civilian D)
「It, it’ll be fine right?
Bolbardié is a fair distance away from this country.」 (Civilian E)
Forna said it before, war.
Along with this war came the phrases 'magic' and 'other world,' I was drawn to
the things that would normally be at the edge of our reality.
「That Bolbardié Kingdom was
destroyed? Unbelievable.」 (Forna)
「Hey Forna. Was that country
also at war?」 (Velt)
「T-that is...... Do not worry.
With this country’s strength and the presence of heroes on the 『Human Continent』, the demons and demi-humans will not be able to easily move their
forces.」 (Forna)
Our hands shook as we held
them together. We’re just kids. I myself understand this fear fairly well.
「It will be alright. If push
comes to shove, I will protect you, Velt.」 (Forna)
Even though she was
surprised, she told me she would protect me. I could only admire this elegant
figure. More than that, I was pathetic.
「That’s no good, to be a brave
girl and think like that.」 (Velt)
「What do you mean?」 (Forna)
「Even if you protect me, I’ll
be troubled if you die for me.」 (Velt)
We should have been similar,
but I felt as though the war between different races had nothing to do with me.
However, since my memories as Asakura Ryuuma returned to me, I could only
understand this much.
「In this world, having my
precious woman die in front of my eyes is more painful than death.」 (Velt)
Even now, I recall the
injured figure of Kamino many times over. I won’t let something like that
happen again. What the? Why is this brat making such an intoxicated expression?
「*Ufufufufufu*」 (Forna)
「Huh?」 (Velt)
「*Fufuun,* Velt!」 (Forna)
「Wha- stop clinging onto me!」 (Velt)
「Velt, I promise I will never
die. Whatever it is, demons, demi-humans, I will not lose.」 (Forna)
「Uhh, maybe you misunderstood
something?」 (Velt)
「Velt is so manly, it’s
lovely.」 (Forna)
I don’t particularly mind what you said, but if I tried to clear up the misunderstanding you’d probably cry a lot, so won’t you stop?
Oo thank you! You are digging your own grave (marriage), Velt!

...somehow this MC is pissing me off.
ReplyDeleteI know he's still bitter about his previous life, especially about his past parents. But that's not a reason to act like a brat to his family and childhood friend. He act like a spoiled brat--- oh wait, he is.... :|
I hope he get something awful happening to him in the future and then change his way of thinking.
Well even if he doesn't have those memories he still a rebellious kid according to what he said
DeleteIf that's how he acts in his previous life...man he's pretty immature and no different from a kid.
DeleteForna is great.
ReplyDeleteShe'd better change this MC's ways.
No... she's literally the worst heroine and I'm saying this after reading 100 chapter, she's low tier😒
Deletei'm already expecting Kimino Mina to be a demi-human/demon
ReplyDeletethanks for the chapter
I'm surprised about how everyone is bashing this MC.......I mean how would you act if you lived the life he did and got reincarnated as he did and blah blah blah >_< wtf am I saying
ReplyDeleteWTF are you saying...
DeleteIn an alternate dimension I would agree with you...
TOO BAD ITS NOT. (Your comment actually gave me a good laugh for some reason)
Ok I'm going to go a bit otaku here but. KID. YOU. GOT. A.
Princess waifu!!!!
Who wears a black one piece dress! You know how hot that is! Believe it!
(If you don't, trust it's hot)
In a few years, she'll be dynamite.
Also, what's his issue with nice monarchy. Ya want anarchy instead? Want some nobles to curb stomp your nuts Mr MC!? Be my guest. Just go to any other tensei light novel.
OI what's her name again? Kimino Mina? More like Kimi no shi. Because she's the reason you died in the first place.
Ok. Guys don't take this too seriously. Just that this MC really triggered me.
