Before going to the mansion, I found an interesting place.
A large enough place that smells of papers, several neatly arranged wooden shelves, books that are placed parallel to make color on each of the wooden shelves, a place that will always exist in any world, I am in the library today.
For now, the most needed information. The thing I need to know is information about this world. Without it, I wouldn't know when to start and know everything about what's going on in this world.
No matter how smart humans were, without information, it would be useless and would instead become a taboo subject. Like food that can fill the stomach, information is served warmly and gives a full mind, knows all things.
Sitting neatly near the people, blending in as a commoner, I slowly started to open the book I had taken from the shelf.
Three books made me have to read it, the first is a book about the origin of a Pelastaja, the second is about some dangerous places, and the third is about an adventurer's diary written by him.
Although this book reads foreign to me, somehow I was able to read this book well. This writing is not like in my world, looks abstract but has art, similar to Sanskrit writing. There's nothing I can't read, everything I can read perfectly. But maybe if I was asked to write the same article, I would have studied it first.
Reading the first book, seeing foreign writings, starting to read it, slowly and surely I began to understand people's point of view towards Pelastaja.
It is said that Pelastaja has been around for a long time. Some Pelastaja helped this world from destruction after the defeat of the upper angels against the demons. Every time the red moon appeared, the chosen human, no matter what race the humans were from, could summon humans from a different world.
Only one human is being chosen every time the red moon appears. If that person is selected, that person will be marked with a moon-shaped symbol on the palm and can use summon-type magic. And, the red moon is called the Red Hot Moon.
For those who managed to summon a Pelastaja, that person would be called Kutsuja or could be called a summoner. However, for those who cannot summon a Pelastaja, that person will die.
Quite tragic.
As if Pelastaja gave hope to this world, Kutsuja would ask Pelastaja to help this world. At that time, Pelastaja will serve as the savior of this world from destruction.
This has been going on for hundreds of years, but until now, Pelastaja has not carried out the task well. Some of them were tragically killed because they couldn't adapt to this world, some would prefer to run away, some chose suicide instead of meeting monsters... and what's worse, some don't carry out their duties and choose to live like ordinary people.
"If you think about it this way, humans are more afraid and judge things quickly. So it's no wonder they choose not to do it."
Reading the second book, this book gives off a very fragrant aroma.
"This book must be a new book."
There is this world map, drawn in person and not through photos. Each region on this map has an angular diagram similar to the country of Australia, filled with plains that merge. There is only one region called Xiry Country which is separated from other regions, and what separates it is a wide expanse of sea.
Besides Xiry Country, there are several other countries, such as Huqmy Country, Macponey Country, Eboy Country, Kapiay Country... and several other countries.
The lands of this world include areas, such as cities, villages, forests, mountains, hills, meadows... and even rivers. No wonder the natural resources in this world are abundant.
There is a country that is always hot during the day, there is also a country that is always cold during the day, there is also a country that does not have certain weather; sometimes it rains, it snows, sometimes it's hot.
This world map is depicted in detail with different colors for each region, and each region has a leader, whether it's a king, queen, or president.
Interestingly, every region has nobles living there. Unlike my world, this world still has a large number of nobles.
"If they have blue blood, I think I should take a sample of their blood. Oh, looks like that joke isn't funny anymore."
Changing the third book, starting to read books about an adventurer's journal, I found something interesting in this book's journal.
Even though this book is sluggish and a little shattered, but I managed to find and know some important points in this world.
As he said, in the world, there are absolutely a lot of monsters in every place. There are so many monsters that don't exist in my world, such as minotaurs, dragons, goblins, orcs, lizardmen, ogres, slimes... and others.
This book explains how this person traveled to various places, found something interesting for that person, told the story of meeting various people, guessing every adventure, until he had to get involved with a dragon.
Survival, maybe that's the adventure I can describe.
"It's quite nice to be someone like him. That person has a brave soul, that person must be great at fighting. I need to recruit that person—oh shit, I'm no longer an army major, how could I possibly recruit that person. And after all, this world is no longer the world I previously lived in. It's a different world, I have to realize that from now on, and not get hung up on what's happened to me."
Talking to myself while scrolling through each page, I feel comfortable reading this journal.
Because every detail of that person's story somehow felt in my mind, as if I was in that person's position.
When I turned to the next page, a piece of paper fell.
Picking up the paper, I found the follow-up story of that person, but this paper was already cut into several parts.
"When the Red Hot Moon comes, don't... because it's dangerous. I've tried it, and the result is... As the ascetic said... So don't ever try... If you want to survive death, do as I tell you to," that's what is written on this paper.
"There are so many cuts, is it possible that the government doesn't want the people to know about this?"
Suspecting that there was something odd about this paper, I looked for the same book on several shelves, but I couldn't find the same book and decided to return to the bench.
"This truncated part explains that there is a way to avoid death when the red moon comes. Even so, why weren't these important parts hidden instead? Is this what the government did? Or, is there someone who doesn't want humans to know how to survive when the red moon comes?"
It is quite troublesome to find out this, even though it is clear that this journal gives a good impression to humans.
Weird, I thought so. Feeling cheated, maybe that's all I can say for the humans in this world.
"The crafty world will always be filled with cunning creatures too. My world, this world, is equally cunning, and that applies to anyone."
After reading and getting all the information, I got out of this library and continued my journey to the mansion there.
However, when I had just exited the library, it was suddenly night.
"Wasn't it early in the morning, was it? Could it be that I read too long, that I didn't notice this?"
Looking at the dark sky filled with stars, the night seemed so quiet in this world.
Looking at the right side, I couldn't find any people, nor did the sides in front of me and my left.
Realizing that there were still many people in the library, I decided to check inside. However, the entrance to this library was locked, preventing me from entering there.
"There is something wrong. I just came out, but this door is already locked."
Turning 90 degrees, a gust of wind rushed at me, fluttering my jet black hair, feeling as though a harbinger of a storm was coming.
As time went on, the gusts of wind grew stronger, and without realizing it I had been sitting here for 30 minutes.
"Ummm..."
Muttering incoherently, I continued to look around me where there was only silence.
After a while, the sound of screaming along with the footsteps of horses appeared around me.
"Quick, we have to take care of the townspeople. Otherwise, we will lose many more lives!"
With that loud voice, I thought there was a knight who was in a hurry to secure the citizens because something dangerous happened.
Finally, I decided to walk to find the source of the sound after staying here for 35 minutes.
Arriving between the crossroads, I saw several horsemen standing there holding swords.
When someone noticed I was quite far from her, she started to approach me with the horse she was riding.
"Oi, you… What are you doing here? Why don't you hide?"
"..."
Sitting on her and looking at her back, I ignored the question and made her ask me again.
"Oi, did you hear? Hurry up and hide! If you don't hide, you will die later! So go hide now!"
After the bright red-haired girl who looked younger than me said that, I saw behind her appear a very large and red surface of the moon.
"Red Moon?"
"Hurry and hide! The monsters will arrive soon, and you can die later."
Because she was insistent and kept on babbling, I couldn't help but turn around and walk away from her.
But when I walked 5 steps, the ground I was standing on cracked, causing impact to other soils, and after a while, something came out of the cracks in the ground.
Something was wrong with what was about to appear there, I quickly got ready and tightened my legs.
When it came out, without thinking I kicked it with my left foot, sending it flying straight into the wall of a building.
"It seems, my kicking power in this world is very strong. For some reason, I feel like my muscles are working 5 times more than usual."
"Oi, you..."
Looking back right at the girl, I saw something flying towards her.
Because of the danger, I moved quickly to help her.
"Oi, what do you want to do?"
Seeing me running, jumping, and stepping on the horse's head to make a spring jump, kicking something to help her, she was confused about what I was doing.
Successfully helping her, I landed perfectly.
"Does not seem. My kick power is not 5 times stronger than usual, but 10 times stronger than usual. It's quite strange to fight without a gun, relying only on kicks."
Rising up after I kicked, a monster that has 2 heads, a body full of fur, a face that looks like a pig with fangs, and has 4 horns, now runs up to me and jumps to guess me.
"Oi you, stay away from there!"
With a sword, she leaped and attacked the monster, cutting off one of the monster's heads.
"Umm, as expected, with a weapon, it's better than fighting with nothing on."
