After walking for a while -
[ Alice, are you okay? how are your injuries? ]
[ Nn... ]
Since I took her with me despite having injuries, I really feel concern about her.
I tried to get her to a place where I can have her healed, but because I will need to leave her if I did so, she refused.
[ Are you sure you're fine? ]
[ Un-Un...! ]
[ Do you wanna rest? ]
[ No... ]
[ Are you hungry? ]
[ ...No... ]
SFX: GROOOWL~
I guessed so...
[ Okay, let's go rest here. ]
Looking around the vast grassland, I looked for a place where we can rest at and I immediately found one.
I put Alice down from my back and placed her carefully to the ground as to not hurt her injuries. I then also sat down beside her.
I took out the bento Bretta-chan gave me and placed it on the ground.
I then opened it.
[ Yuki...? ]
[ Aren't you hungry...? ]
[ ...No... ]
SFX: GROOOWL~
[ ...Okay, here. ]
I took an onigiri inside the bento box and give it to Alice by hand.
[ Yuki...? ]
[ It's food. ]
[ ...Fo-Food...! N-No...! Alice is not hungry...! ]
[ Are you sure you're not going to eat it? ]
[ ... ]
[ If you don't, I will. ]
[ ...Uhn... ]
[ Try it, okay? It's very tasty! ]
[ Alice is okay to eat...? ]
[ Of course. ] I said as I then patted her small head.
[ Eat it like this, okay? ]
I took a bite from the onigiri I'm holding to show her the proper way to eat it.
[ ... ]
After that, she also took a bite from her onigiri and her face immediately swelled up.
[ You like it, huh? ]
[ ...Nn... ] she shyly nodded.
After that, I also decided to eat mine.
The onigiris were very well made. The person who actually made these onigiris is Bretta-chan. I taught her the recipe only from my memory and she immediately found a way to make the onigiris tastier.
[ It's delicious, right? ]
[ U-un... ] Alice replied.
It looks like some of Alice's injuries have already healed. It's really surprising how fast her injuries healed. Looking at her right now, you won't even notice that she just got beaten up.
I looked at her again.
She's eating her onigiri very slowly with a satisfied smile on her face.
I also unconsciously smiled as I looked at her cutely eating her onigiri.
Noticing that I'm looking at her, she shyly turned around in the opposite direction.
[ What's wrong, Alice? ]
[ ...Nothin... ]
[ Do you want another one...? ]
[ ...Is... Is it okay...? ]
[ Of course. ]
Saying so, I took another onigiri from the bento and handed it over to her tiny hands.
[ You really liked it, huh? I'm sure you and Bretta-chan would get along. ]
[ ...Bretta... Chan...? ]
[ Un. She's also a little kid like you, Alice. ]
[ Little kid...? ]
[ Un, you two would definitely get along with each other. ] I said while patting her head.
It's too bad we didn't meet Bretta-chan when I took her earlier at the inn.
[ Haah... ] I sighed -
I then rested my back on the large stone behind us.
The sky I'm now looking at is blue, the kind of blue I've never seen in my previous world.
Now that I think about it, I will never be able to experience something like this in my previous world.
These kinds of adventures and stuff...
[ ...Yuki...? ] called Alice.
She's standing and in front of me with her head facing the ground and while tugging her clothes.
[ What's wrong Alice? ]
[ ...Ano... A... Arigatou... ]
[ Hmm...? ]
[ For food... And meat... ]
[ Oh... ]
Seeing her like this, I decided to stand up.
I stood in front of her and patted her head.
[ Don't worry about it. ]

Finally...
This is like in one of those Light novels I've read!
I'm about to get transported to another world!
[ Then, Souta, Kenchi, Haru, you're about to be sent to another world! You three will be the heroes the Goddess Clair will summon to this other world with the purpose to save it! Now go! ]
[ [ Hai! ] ]
And just like that, our view immediately changed.
A beautiful girl then appeared in front of us.
[ Welcome to our great country! Heroes! ]
This...! This is!?
Is this girl supposed to be the princess I need to save and then marry!?
I need to make use of these gifts that beautiful Goddess gave me!
Those three gifts I wished for!
To have a beautiful face that every girl would like!
To have an extremely wonderful body that everyone would like!
And to have an OP game mechanic-like power scaler that the other guy also seemed to have wished for.
With these, I'm sure I can live the life I want to here in this world.
[ Anyway, thanks with the help of our Goddess Clair, we're able to summon you three. ]
[ And so...? What are we supposed to do now? ] The other guy who got transported with me asked.
Now that I properly looked at the other two people who got summoned along with me...
They're both good looking...
The guy is an Ikemen while the girl is the type of girl I would like.
I'm quite jealous of the other guy as he didn't need to waste a wish to make himself an Ikemen just like what I did. But still, I'm confident that I will be able to collect more girls than her.
[ First, we will have you meet the royal family! And since you guys might still be a little concern and worried about being suddenly transported here, we would then like to show you our humble generosity. ] the princess answered.
[ Hmm... is that so? ]
It seems like we will be able to meet with the Royal family soon...
Since I'm a hero... It will be most likely that they will ask me to marry either one or two princesses!
The Goddess said that polygamy is allowed here, so I might as well try to marry girls as many as I can!
This is the world I'm wishing to live at!
While having such thoughts inside my head -
[ But what about our real purpose? ] the hero girl with me asked.
[ That will come after the celebration. ]
This girl... If possible, I would also like to charm her but it seems like she's not the kind of girl that would easily fall for a guy's look.
I need to act nice towards her to make her fall...
[ Anyway, once the preparations are complete, we will need to train you so that you may then properly control and use your powers in battle. ]
[ Is that so...? The Goddess said that we need to save this world. We need to properly train ourselves. ] the Ikemen guy muttered with a serious expression.
[ I agree. ] the hero girl then nodded to his statement.
It looks like these two are very serious about their mission...
I guess I need to train too if I want to get along with them.
I also need to get stronger to impress the girls in this kingdom.
I will save this world and have a harem of beautiful girls!
