My thesis is not going so well but my report is going quite smoothly. That being said, the me who translating this chapter right now is trying to procrastinate.

I made a paypal, patreon, and adfly page so please be kind enough to open any of them and so I can afford to print my internship report. The printing price is godly. Each copy of my report can feed me for 3 days.

“What?”

Tenshi’s sharp tone was flying at me. I rubbed my pained stomach and turned around so I can’t look at his face.

Even if I don’t look at him, his ikemen’s aura is just as bad. Just as I expected, I can feel his presence from anywhere. No matter how much I turn my eyes, it feels like he’s right in front of my eyes.

What kind of torture is this? I can’t even defend from it. I can’t even bear the disgust anymore. If it’s the level of celebrity you see on TV, you can still endure it. But this is CG level of beauty!!

“Dakara, please return me to my original world. I don’t like it either, suddenly brought like this without being told anything and forced a role that I don’t want to take”

The woman around Tenshi, well… they seemed to be angered by my voice. Oy, I’m the one who’s angry! It’s difficult to say, but your faces are not helping my nausea.

Those old men couldn’t believe the words I said. Sorry, but I haven’t changed my words even until now. So why do you look so surprised?

“Hoo? Do you want to return to the Blue World?”

“Isn’t that obvious? Why do you think I would choose a world without my family and friends?”

(TL: And toothbrushes. Don’t forget the toothbrushes”)

Tenshi started to laugh with a voice like scraping the ground.

It’s an annoying laugh. I can hear my anger flopped.

“Rather than family and friends, serving me should be more worthwhile, is it not?”

Aaa… this is useless. I just can’t understand it anymore.

After hearing his sentence, I just don’t want to understand him anymore.

What the hell are you laughing at?

From those women’s around Tenshi, I can understand that they think every single one of Tenshi’s word is correct. That is surely the ‘common sense’ here.

“No. For you, it might be so. But I don’t want to”

Taking the story up until now, everything is really unpredictable. I felt like I was repeating the same word to an moody alien. My stress value is reaching more than my anger. My stomach began to hurt again.

“It seems that you are different”

“Ha? Of course I will be different”

“Why is that?”

On the other hand, Tenshi began to ask me a weird question. What’s so funny about it? I really don’t understand. I don’t want to understand.

Seriously? You really don’t know why I want to return? Are you seriously don’t know that?

“………………………………………….. Tenshi’s job. It’s to maintain this Scarlet World, is it not?”

After a long silence, those words are finally came out of my mouth.

It seems that I was consuming energy in an amazing rate. I felt more tired than when I was taking the high school entrance interview exam.

“…. … Oh, yes. Yes, that’s right, because you are from the Blue World, I think that something is wrong and that Scarlet World can do something. That is what I believe.”

(TL: I asked around and none of my anime enthusiast friends can help me with this line. The RAW is : 「……ああ、そうだな。ふん、そうか。お前は蒼海の世の者であるから、私がどうにかなり、紅の世がどうにかなっても良いと、そう考えているのだな」)

Ugh.. It’s useless to talk anymore. He talks about it so easily. He just talks like that and laugh without realizing what’s wrong.

I don’t even have any motivation to be angry anymore.

I don’t understand why he laughs, and I understand that I will not understand why he laughs, even if someone explains it to me.

To be honest, I don’t know what should I do to return to my own world. My common sense is didn’t match this world’s common sense at all and I have noticed that they don’t realize the difference too.

If it’s different from the start, then there’s no meaning even if you get angry to every single one of them.

“…………….. You ungrateful kid!!”

I was surprised at first because a woman sitting beside Tenshi was suddenly screaming like that.

“what?”

what is this woman talking about? I pretty much understand that I was being called ungrateful, and then anger began to boil down at the bottom of my gut.

“I don’t think you understand the situation. Aren’t you the one who forcibly brought me to this world?”

“Sorya, of course I’m feeling a bit of sympathy for being separated from your family, but shouldn’t you just abandon them for the sake of people in this Scarlet World? ”

what? What do you mean by ‘abandon’?!? Seriously this baba!

“…… Anything you said is not important”

My eyes turned red because of anger. Right now I’m seriously angry.

“Well, I know mutual respect is important in society, but what you are asking from me is a help, is it not? To me, whose life was taken forcibly, this is a very unreasonable demand.

Yesterday I told the same thing to your servants. I am NOT a slave! I want to decide how I want to live properly by myself and I decided that my families and friends are important. That’s why, if I threw those people away and became a member of this damn world, it will be a betrayal for those people.

But that’s something you will never understand, right?”

“That’s right. Why should I care about your circumstances?”

“I guess so. Then, I don’t care about every single one of you. I don’t know if this world will disappear if I returned to my world, I don’t care about it. If you telling me to give my life to you, then I tell to disappear and so I CAN RETURN TO MY WORLD.”

I think I squeezed out all of my voice. I was too angry so I lost my own control. Even when talking, I can feel every single bit of my feeling gushing out. My hands were trembling and my fingers clenched shut. This is the worst. My head hurts. My teeth grind against each other and made *gachigachi* sounds.

There was a moment of silence in the room but someone said.

“Wonderful. You are suitable as The Guardian of Scarlet Dawn.”

Something beeps behind my ear.

***

When I woke up, I was on the bed in the room assigned to me. With a worrisome expression, a maid was standing near a morning stands. My heads hurts badly. It’s a dull pain like when you spinning too much.

“Guardian-sama, have you awoken?”

“…….. nn?”

I fell down on the pillow to wipe off my forehead for a while and raised a groaned voice in response to the maid. The maid rocked my shoulder gently and passed me a glass of cold water. I received it with a blurry mind and swallowed a couple of gulps. I can recognize some sweet and refreshing citrus flavor like mandarin orange.

“Although is is said that you blacked out in the presence of Tenshi-sama… how do you feel?”

“………”

“Is it hurt in any place? Shall I call a healer?”

“….. Noi..sy… j-just go away…”

It doesn’t make any sense. Why did my head hurt so much? Is something wrong?

I could feel the maid leaving the bed. I have no energy to fuss about it. I pulled a thing like a thick blanket and wrapped it around me like an insect.

Only the futon didn’t change. I suddenly felt melancholic.

(Why did this happened to me?)

I had that thought so many times already but I was not angry. It was my first time to be this sad.

I was sad because somewhere in my mind, I thought that I might not be able to return to my world

Looking at my students writing a story for a school project makes me want to write my own story. I am thinking a story about enslaved hero trying to find a loophole in his/her enslavement crest and get revenge to the ruling king. No harem and no filler.

I might even write it in 2 languages (English and Indonesia) just so I can put them in novelupdates. Technically it’s not against the rules because Indonesia is my mother tongue and I’m translating from asian language to English.

OR I CAN SCRAP THAT THOUGHT and focus on translating instead. I might lost interest midway and the idea of [not finishing a story] doesn’t sit well with me.

Special Thanks:

  • Thank you, I will buy you an ice cream next time. A cheap one that is. Half-eaten that is. But it’s the thought that counts.

Just my promised revision of ch5.. Nothing to see here…

I’m planning to post an original story created by one of my students. It’s a SciFi about time travelling or some sort. I haven’t read it myself so I don’t know anything about the story.

chapter 6? I’m translating it right now. Maybe around midnight?

“Handsome people only”

“I’ll forgive him because he’s so handsome”

I think those phrases are becoming quite familiar in recent SNS. Overall, I think it’s true.

However, it can’t be applied to everything in this world.

If you narrow it down to individual level, there are people who can’t handle ikemens.

But there’s also a saying “The nail that sticks up gets hammered down.”

After all, it is said that it may not be good if you are too handsome or too ugly.

***

According to the maids, along the way to the mountain which this place was built was divided into several areas along the palace. First there are inner and outer court, and it seems the location where I was staying was in the inner court. A some innermost part of the inner court was called the temple.

The Scarlet Palace, the resident area of Tenshi, is right next to the area where I stayed. I know I said that this place is big, but this place is REALLY humongous.

“The place where Guardian-sama was staying is called Temple of the Dawn. It is a temple for Guardian of Scarlet Dawn-sama to live and it’s located in the deepest part along with the Scarlet Palace.”

Even when no one is asking, a maid kept spouting some random info. Thank you for your hard work (TL: this is sarcasm). I ignored her in a bad mood.

Those old men didn’t seem to noticed or care about the maid and kept walking. The representative granpa, the one I remember the most from my summoning day, start explaining about the world and the Guardian. That old man seems to have exceptional treatment even among the other old men.

A damn jiji. (TL: granpa)

As soon as I call him that in my mind, that granpa turned back and startled me.
Oy! Old people don’t move creepily like that.

“We arrived, Guardian-sama. Tenshi’s throne, the place between hekishou de gozaimasu”

Plaster painted walls are lined up in a corridor with a huge red door on the end. The door was carved with flowers similar to lotus and flowing water was painted on the ceiling, which is unnecessarily large.

“hekishou?”

When I murmured, the maid next to me whispers “clear blue sky”.

O…kay? Of course I ignored her. I don’t dislike this maid but I was hateful enough that I don’t want to speak to this world’s inhabitant.

Even so, this world’s sky is not even that red, so why it’s called ‘Scarlet’? Tenshi lives in this palace and the one guarding him is the Guardian of Scarlet Dawn. All of the maid’s clothes are close to red crimson, the clothes that I wore were red too. Only my coat was white.

“Now please…” (TL: Saa, Dozo)

The representative jiji invites me. Meanwhile, the other jiji got in between the throne door. The maids stopped and lowered their heads towards me. Apparently they were not allowed to get inside. Then why did they come in the first place?

I drag my own legs against my will and follow the damn jiji into the room. I gritted my teeth and try to be calm to face Tenshi. If it keeps going like this, I might create a bad impressions.

***

Inside the corridor was a very large room, maybe as large as a high school gym. It has the same atmosphere as the ancient Greek temple like the ones I saw in the books, because white stone pillars are lined up in the room. A crimson carpet was drawn at the feet and thin cloth dyed in reddish purple was hung in between pillars.

Cushions were piled up and several animal’s furs spread around in the middle of the room. Several men and women were found sitting and standing there.

“Tenshi-sama, the Guardian of Scarlet Dawn has arrived”

The representative jiji speaks to the group but there was no reply.  Suddenly, a random old man thrust his hand and pushed me forward.

Wha? Why the hell did you pushed me? What the hell? I wish I could say that but I can’t really do anything about it. Why do I get treated like this? This is a really shitty situation.

Although frustrated, I glare at the cushions with my eyes narrowed. There were beautiful women sitting on the fur and a man alone in the center. He’s obviously the Tenshi.

He had a straight red hair like a woman and surrounded by women with black hair. The color of his eyes was gold. And… Is his face a CGI? It was so beautiful that I can’t believe it

(TL: CGI – computer generated image like those filthy marvel movies.)

He looked at me rudely and slowly opened his mouth

“Are you the Guardian of Scarlet Dawn?” (TL: He used Omae instead of Kimi)

“….”

“I heard that you are running rampant. Aren’t you an adult? Aren’t you? You are the Guardian of Scarlet Dawn. Now answer me”

“……….”

I’m not such an easy woman that can be baite-

“……………………”

(Oy are you fucking kidding? Nope. No way. Hell no. Please not an ikemen. Nope. Nope nope nope nope nope…)

– I ran to the closest stone pillar and leaned against it. I threw up because of nausea and my chest hurt badly. I threw up with *zuruzuru* while squatting down while hitting the stone pillar.

Because when I looked at the super-classy ikemen, my nausea was even more severe than usual. That’s why I took the chance and speak slowly while observing him from top to bottom.

It feels disgusting. I feel the anguish in my chest doubled.

I’m can’t stand being called by an ikemen with a beautiful genderless face that seems so sexy and mature.

Just looking at his face makes me feel worse. I hold my stomach and resist the nausea. Furthermore the more he smug the worse my nausea was.

However, in reality such a beautiful person rarely seen and most of them have a ‘cute’ like face so the probability of meeting a person with prideful attitude like this is almost non-existent.

It’s the first time I seriously got sick like this. It’s to a degree where I got goosebumps all over my body. I remembered reading an SNS about ikemen. Was it about some make-up tips? But for me it’s like my whole world was crumbling.

“wha…”

I can hear a cranky voice of a man who seem to be Tenshi from my back but I can’t really tell. I felt worse every second. Someone bring me a plastic bag…

It may be great if there’s some kind of mental preparation, but it’s really hard to see a top-notch handsome ikemen without any prior information. It’s surprising like someone beside you suddenly vomited on a moving train.

“…. Oi Arzack. Explain yourself!”

“N-no sir… I’m confused myself…”

“I know we called a strange woman from the Blue World, I even forgave you from suddenly summoning the Guardian of Scarlet Dawn but… What is this? Not beautiful. rude manner. She doesn’t even look like an adult. More like a child”

While I was suffering from headache and nausea, the damn jiji was getting yelled at by Tenshi. Good job. But before that, give me a plastic bag.

I cleared my throat a few times and finally the nausea started to settle. I pressed my cheeks against the pillar, hoping for a refreshing feeling of the coldness. I quietly tried to restore my physical strength while listening the interaction behind me.

“However, she’s still qualified as the Guardian of Scarlet Dawn”

The damn jiji was trying to gain me some appeal. Speaking from here, it’s seems he didn’t know why I was chosen.

It won’t be wrong unless he had chosen an appropriate one. Then why bother choosing me and force such a role to me? Are you still trying to force that job to me? Just choose someone else from this world, alright?

“Fuun.. Are you saying it’s to protect [loyalty] to Tenshi? Ridiculous!”

Tenshi smirked. Oh, I don’t really care about this ‘loyalty’ he speaks of but I agree with him.

“… Then, would you return me to my world?”

I said that with weak voice from nausea.

TL: Again, this is a special thanks corner for the comments that helps me realize why she kept puking. In my defense, I am living with a mother and 2 sisters and I was forced into a Korean drama marathon so I’m used to look at these ‘pretty boys’. That’s the reason I can’t understand her pain and disgust when I first read it.
