I just found an amazing weapon yesterday. The Elinula Gloves. The name's kinda dumb but whatever, a cool weapon is a cool weapon nonetheless. So I have a question for you, Clattanoia.
"Why are you using It as kitchen mitts?!"
"Well, I never saw a magical glove before but these gloves sure are comfy and so soft. It can repel any heat or cold"
"That's not even yours, to begin with, give me that!"
I immediately snatched the mitt- I mean, glove from her and hugged It like protecting a child from a molester. I'll never let anyone touch this family heirloom!
"Anyway, why are you guys still here at my house? If you don't want to help me go to your world, then leave!"
"That's the reason we're stuck at your stinky house. We can't go back to our world even If we want to. Miss Clattanoia and I don't know how we ended up here and the Portal Notebooks only allow Teleportation from this world!"
Euclius replied to me with an ill-mannered tone like seriously, I'm older than you! Also, what do you mean, even If you want to? You're the one who doesn't want to go back since It's much more fun in this world, you say!
But honestly... I have to admit. There are still questions left unanswered here. Why are these fantasy guys coming to my world? The dragon, Euclius, and Clattanoia... Why are they being transported specifically in this place?
In front of these mind-boggling questions, I just looked down and released a sigh. There's no point trying to tackle all these questions right now.
"Knock, knock"
All of a sudden, a sound that I didn't hear for ages entered my eardrums. No one would want to visit my house, even my mother so why is someone knocking at my door, right now?!
"Hinata, you have a visitor."
No way, no way, no way! Is It my mother? Nah, she doesn't even like to come here because she said It stinks so It's not her!
"Hinata, that's rude, you know? Making someone wait"
Is It my homeroom teacher? But I already graduated high school, there's no reason for him to come here!
"Oi, Hinata! If you won't answer It, I'll just go..."
"ALL RIGHT! I'LL ANSWER IT, JUST SHUT UP!!!"
Shit, I ended up snapping.
"You... don't need to shout..."
I'm hearing a girl weeping behind me. The only girl here is Clattanoia so I'll assume she's the one I ended up snapping with. I'll apologize to her later but for now, I have to prepare myself mentally
Deep breath, deep breath, deep breath...
Try to not say something stupid, try not to say something stupid, try to not say something stupid...
"All right, let's go!"
I approached the source of my anxiety and reached for the doorknob, opened It mildly, and peeked at whoever is the one disturbing me
"Sir, I have a mail for you"
A mail? I only know someone who still uses such an old-fashioned way of communicating. The mailman is trying to give me a piece of an envelope and like the speed of a whip, I snatched It and at the same time, closing the door!
"Success!"
But seriously though, I only know one person who still uses mails
"I knew It"
I checked the address of where the envelope came from and It traces back to my old house.
"It's from my Mom"
+++++
"So this is a train! It looks like I'm inside a very fast worm!"
"This looks so amazing, I've never been in this kind of seat. It's soft and comfortable. It must be fun being able to ride this anytime, Hinata"
What are these idiots getting excited by a Bullet Train for? We're now inside a bullet train, riding It from Tokyo towards my hometown, Gunma.
The two morons in front of me are now staring at the glass window beside us like kids riding a train for the first time, I mean, this is their first time but they really act like kids.
My mother asked me to go home since It's summer vacation. I honestly don't want to go but she said that she's going to send my father to my place to pick me up If I don't go
I also can't entrust my house to these bunch of morons and leaving them on their own accord could be disastrous so I just took them with me
"Clattanoia, can't we just use one of your notebooks to teleport us?"
"I can only open a portal to a random location, I don't know where we'll end up If we do that"
"Yeah, I remember"
This will be a pretty hectic 14 days for me. Just in case something extraordinary happens, I brought my gloves with me. I still don't know the full capacity of these gloves besides absorbing mana but I'll bring this just in case.
"We are now at the Takasaki Station. Anyone who wants to get off the train, please push the button"
"Is this the button he's talking about?"
"Don't you dare push that-"
And she really did... I'm still not finished with my warning and this girl who has the IQ of a cow already pushed It! Your dark dress already stands out so much, but you still plan to make us more stupid than ever. Way to go, Clattanoia.
I don't care about how look at me when It's about my hobby but It's a different topic when It's about common sense.
The train stopped for a while and some people are looking at us but despite all that, the train continued as nothing happened. Oh, also I scolded Clattanoia a little after that.
"So by the way, Hinata. Where are we going?"
Euclius spoke to me with seriousness within his eyes. Seems like he finally caught on to what's happening.
"Well, can't keep in the dark all time, can't I? We're going to my parents"
With that, I told both of them about the current situation. Why we're on a train right now and where are we headed and why I took them with me.
"So are we clear? My father already has a pretty bad image of me so at least try to not add to that"
"Eh? A bad image? Why?"
All of a sudden, memories from the past flashed in my brain. Memories that I don't want to dig anymore but ended up resurfacing again.
"That's because..."
"We're now arriving at Ichishiro Station, anyone who wants to get off should push the button beside your seat, thank you"
Oh? We're already here? Time flies so much these days, and It's been two years since I left this place but now I'm here again...
"I'm home, Gunma..."
