Sorry for the late update. Please blame it on @PoorQualityTL because he/she/apache introduced me to “Youjo Senki”. A very good and militaristic anime with gigantic eye-balled female MC. Somehow, for some reason, I managed to finished it in 1 sitting and the day changed from saturday to sunday without me realizing. AND I HAVEN’T START TRANSLATING YET

On a very different note, I was playing yugioh randomly and HAVE you tried a Rainbow Neos deck? It was amazingly easy to summon, surprisingly easy to search, and absolutely destroys your opponent’s strategy. I mean, 4500 ATK that can shuffle either all opponent’s monster, all opponent’s S/T, or all opponent’s graveyard back into their deck? That thing combined with Masked Hero Acid means a HUGE middle finger as large as the playing field.

 

Anyway here’s ch4


 

When I woke up, I noticed a slightly softer texture than the floor wrapped around my body.

Apparently I was in my bed. Was it a dream that I went to another world? That would be great.

But unfortunately, my REAL bed was covered in stacks of books so there’s no way I can lay around like letter 大 like I was doing right now.

I don’t know who did it but someone put me on the bed.

Why can’t it be a dream?

***

Since morning my forehead was hurting, my vein popping, my stress maxing, and my frustration was breaking through the limit. While I thought that my blood vessel might break, I had the first morning in another world.

For now, I’ll eat some breakfast. I guess was rolling a bit all over the bed without permission.

First of all, the first thing I noticed when I woke up was I was wearing something like red Nazo Tribe clothes. I had a sudden urge to rip the clothes apart because it was the same one as what that woman was wearing when she came here.

(TL: ナゾの民族衣装だ – Nazo no minzoku ishonda; This is the first thing that popped up on google. Can someone please help me? What in seven seas is ‘Nazo’? )

But still, they change my clothes without permission, so I got angry and tore away most of it. Since I have no other clothes, I made it closer to a one piece clothes that was tied around the waist.

Anyway, I don’t know what happened if the fabric got wrinkled, usually I just iron it or put them in the laundry shop. I don’t know anything about ironing and cleaning until I came to this world but I guess there’s nothing really wrong with it.

And then, what did they do to the table top? Did they use decoupage liquid? It looks like some scrolls about Tenshi and Guardian of Scarlet Dawn was plastered perfectly.

(TL: Tenshi = God. Just in case if you forgot. And decoupage liquid is transparent liquid glue similar to varnish. It is used to create decoupage arts and crafts)

I was thinking about what kind of lettering was applied but at the same time, I had an urge to break those scrolls apart in anger. I tried to them the scrolls but it was covered in decoupage glue and it didn’t peel off even when I used my nails.

The characters written were similar to kanji and katakana and there’s some differences in some parts. There’s some unknown letters here and there but somehow I could understand the meaning of the text.

Speaking of grammar, it was confusing at first but it was close to a regular Japanese (Subject – Object – Verb). Because the long sentences here are extremely short, other features are difficult to find. Overall it looks like some Japanese and weird stuff mixed together.

What’s with this chaos? I was kind of okay because I took some lessons in traditional Chinese.

I pressed down the anger and try to decipher the scroll. The scrolls was actually well placed because you can put your dishes on the table and read the scrolls without the dish blocking the sentences.

I can guess a few reasons:
① Maybe this world’s leaders, obviously with few screws loose in their heads, thought that I disliked their God because I don’t know the wonderfulness and the importance of their ‘Tenshi-sama’.

② Maybe they want me to realize how much the duty that I’m trying to refuse is actually worth.

③ Hearing my words that I wanted to return to my original world, they wanted to give me a sliver of hope covered in melted chocolate and sugar.

 

After I finished reading, I can summarize a few points that The Scarlet World has come to peace because of Tenshi. Guardian of Scarlet Dawn’s duty is to protect the nearest (?) Tenshi. Then Tenshi keeps the defense until the defense of the five other than Guardian of Scarlet Dawn

(TL: again, I don’t know. そして天子には暁紅守の他にも五の守りまでの守りがつく。)

That was the content… Was it.. something like a children’s picture book? It reminds me about the story of “Rabbit of Inaba” that I got from a shrine on shichi-go-san. (TL: I put some explanation at the bottom of the chapter)

 

It feels like oil was poured into my frustration.

 

 

But anyway, what kind of shabby status Tenshi has that Red Guardian of Dawn’s job description was written as “Honorably becomes Tenshi’s warrior and protects Tenshi forever”. Do anyone really want a 24-hour security job plus being a counselor? No way.

Especially since I can’t remember anything about martial arts except about protecting yourself and your mind. And I obviously don’t know anything about counseling.

***

The yesterday’s group of granpa who attended my summoning soon entered the room right after I finished my breakfast. Yesterday, their attire did not seem very realistic. To be honest, they looked like they were doing some kind of cosplay. I thought that the costume was just for impression but when I look closely, I noticed that it had a shape like a wizard’s robe. They had a large hood with a long length and their sleeves shaped like a cone.

I was still irritated but I was able to observe more calmly than yesterday. I could feel nothing but disgust when I saw their faces but at the same time I thought that probably they were the only people that can return me to my world. I will try to reason with them.

 

“Apologies Guardian-sama, it appears that you didn’t get a good rest last night.”

(TL: Guardian of Scarlet Dawn is too mouthful so please forgive me)

I don’t remember accepting that I will become Guardian of Scarlet Dawn and I don’t remember I wanted to stay here.

I got angry and I wanted to shout so badly but I somehow swallowed it down. However, I glared at the old man who looks like the representative of the group.

“Today because Tenshi-sama has allowed it, you are going to have an audience with Tenshi-sama. We will show you the way”

Audi… Audience? Like audience in front of a king or something like that? Are you telling me that I can meet this Tenshi? And you are coming with me? It’s hard to understand what they said because they used old words like in old movies.

 

“Now.. now… She need to dress up first”

“Then you better call me a maid”

“Ah, then bring some red clothes”

Suddenly the other old men start to speak. Ignoring them, I stare at the representative.

“When will you return me to my original world?”

“We can’t tell you”

What the hell was that mean? Is it impossible or not? Which one is it?

While biting my lips, I endured those words. Somehow, it seemed useless to continue this story to this people. Just as yelling at a civilian random maid that ‘I am not a freaking Guardian of some Scarlet Dawn’ would help me with anything.

 

“… If you say you are going to arrange a dress up, let me take a bath first. I slept like that yesterday and I would like to brush my teeth so get on with it”

I gave up trying to appeal to these people directly. I kept getting angry since yesterday and my willpower to mess around with such people are wilting.

“Bath? Starting now? No way, we will make Tenshi-sama waiting for too long.”

“Since morning bath is just washing your head and body, it won’t take long. Then please at least let me use the washbasin. I want to at least wash my face a bit.”

When I said that the old man called a maid with troubled face then left the room.

***

The maid who seemed familiar with this matter took me to a stone veranda that seemed to be fine even if the floor got wet and handed me a tub of hot water with nice temperature. I wash my face quickly, squeeze one of the two towels handed to me, and wipe my body with it. Incidentally, the cloth was nothing like a towel. Just an ordinary cloth that looked like a shirt. I felt a subtle feeling…

How do you prepare the toothpaste? I was offered something resembling a toothpick. I felt delicate. I don’t want to live in a world without face towels and toothbrushes. Such a sad way to live.

When I thought it was the end of preparation, I was pulled to a room that looks like a clothing room. Oh, because I meeting a great person, do I get to change my clothes? I finally understand the meaning of that old man’s words “we will make Tenshi-sama waiting for too long”. None of the clothes in the room are suposed to be layered like a kimono, and how long will it take to prepare them?

The maid pull out a dirt red colored clothes which seemed to make the clothes she was wearing looks even heavier. Of course I firmly refuse it.

Perhaps it’s a rule that will not change even in this world that it would be disrespectful to not present yourself in a proper appearance but why should I follow the rules of clothing in this world? I am not a resident of this world so if you want me to dress up then prepare something from my world. Will it be a high school uniform or a kimono.

If you can’t, then I don’t care.

Likewise, I refused all hair ornaments and hairdo that they offer.

Although it was a bit chilly, on top of red one-piece clothing that I made on my own, a flower like a red peony was drawn on a white background.

(TL: a.k.a clothes that she rip on her own)

I was dressed in a long-length jacket similar to those old men, which was a compromise between us both.

Since I was not wearing uniforms, I let them put some make-up on me. I was hit with white powder, but what is it? Is it the poisonous ones like the ancient Chinese?

(TL: she’s talking about lead based make-up from 15th to 19th century)

So now I am going to meet this Tenshi. The old men who saw my appearance, and compromise because I was fussy about wearing clothes of this world. There were also some maid who failed to put on proper clothes on me. All of them looked dissatisfied.

 

 

 

 


As I was saying previously, I’m still looking for a free hosting that allows me to at least install wordpress and alter the code inside. At least the one that allows me to install some plugin because I really need those automatic ToC and the previous-next button.

I am still considering about ads because I don’t want to spread some popup trojans on my reader’s phones. I’m also considering making a PDF or EPUB files and put them up so you can download it but it also need another hosting because wordpress doesn’t let me do so.

Anyway tomorrow is a holiday but I will be busy since morning. Not because of religious activities but I was in charge of decorating for a campus event and I really need to start working.

 

I will have another chapter translated by tomorrow if I can but no promises.


*shichigosan – children festival celebrated for 3 & 7 years old girl and 3 & 5 years old boy

**Rabbit of Inaba – Inaba no shiro usagi – A rabbit wanted to see a princess, so it made a wager with a shark to see whose family was more numerous – the shark or the rabbit. The rabbit used the sharks that lined up to cross the other shore, but the sharks tore off its skin. It was told to wash its body in salt water, but the pain only made it worse. Okuninushi restored the rabbit’s skin by having it wash in fresh water and cover itself with reeds.

        1. Well the word ‘angel’ is kind of underwhelming considering Tenshi’s job description which is keeping peace. It looks more of a god’s job rather than angel’s job.

          But we’ll see in the few next chapters. If angel fits more then I got a tens of chapters to edit

          1. You think so? Hmm, maybe it’s a cultural thing because I kinda ‘learned’ it that way, that god would be too high and mighty to directly interfere with the human realm and would task its Angels to keep a watch on humanity, sometimes act as guards, messengers or … ‘cleaner’ (forgot the word).

            Eitherways, I also doubt that it’s a “god” god – best just to stick with Tenshi-sama 👍

          2. Guys, the literal meaning of “天子” (Tenshi) is “Heaven Being”. It is often used to translate the European / Middle Eastern concept of “Angel”, but it is also one of the appellations for the Emperor. (Also the Chinese pronunciation is one of the appellations of the Emperor of China.)

            I’m leaning after this chapter for Tenshi-sama being the monarch rather than a god or angel.

    1. It made me wonder and cringe how other reincarnation protagonists almost never bothered with that kind of hygine problem 😣😂
      Well, most likely they solved it somehow, but still… I’d be too pampered to endure xd

  1. Thanks for the chapter.

    While I understand her hatred, I think she needs to have some breath exercises. At this rate she’s going to pop a blood vessel. Now on the “I only wear school uniforms or kimonos” … What?
    Did she have no other clothes at home? Who does that? Not even jeans?

    Anyways just me nitpicking at her fashion taste.

  2. i would totally beat that thing up, if i was as pissed off as she is. Ot kill it, just to teach them a lesson. “Don´t think about having peace by abducting and enslaving people” xD
    thanks for the chapter :p

  3. Thanks for the update

    I have a general idea for the machine translator

    But I’m sorry, reveal this now would be a spoiler
    SO I’ll say all my opinions nce the speech is finished

  4. re:ナゾの民族衣装

    Mysterious tribal clothing. She’s basically saying they’re tribal, but can’t be specific. The author’s being lazy in their description. No clue on the other phrase.

    1. I use to think she was just stupid. but if she manages to not piss off Tenshi then shes not as stupid as I thought, because in reality this person is all that stands between her and annihilation.

  5. If you liked the Youjo Senkai anime, then you should read the light novel. I personally felt that the anime was to ‘all over the place.’ In my opinion, the novel had a beauty to it that the anime lost.

  6. I’m really looking forward to how this bad tempered heroine is gonna continue to be unpleasant to her kidnappers *evil laugh*
    thank you for the fast paced translation!

  7. I’m already getting wrecked by masked hero acid decks, i dont need to know i can shreked with an entirely other combo like rainbow neos q.q

  8. I’m several years late, but if you liked the anime, you should definitely read the light novel. Somehow, even though the anime is along my favorites, the light novel manages to go even further and beyond. It’s my 2nd favorite novel of all times.
