My birthplace the Buena village, or now it should be called Buena City
I only lived there for 7 years but it still holds a special place in my heart.
It was a beautiful little town between a fertile and beautiful paddock next to a forest
When Roxy helped me overcome my trauma with the outdoors, I ventured out to explore the surroundings and wow, it was a beautiful place.
But unfortunately the mana disaster destroy everything in the village leaving behind a dry and lifeless plain
Oh well, that's what I saw when I went back to that place when I was 13.
According to Sylphie after I left there, several years passed and the lands regained their fertility and some survivors decided to settle there.
Curiously, being further away from Roa and from the range of the calamity, the lands recovered faster than in Roa, which is why many people began their settlements there.
As the years went by, the village returned to its original state but continued to grow and grow rapidly.
After many years, an adventurer's guild was opened, which attracted more people to settle there.
In addition, Roa and Buena shared the same river, which helped the strategic position
In the times close to the death of my version of the future the Buena City It was bigger than the old Roa
In addition my version of the future help with the structural developmentof the city which was to create protective walls around the entire city in record time as well as design a sewage system, and an Orsted Corp headquarters which increased its fame
And over the course of the 5 years without me the city exploded in population as it became a trade route to Roa
Today the city is home to about 10,000 inhabitants, which is double what Roa had in my childhood.
In short, Buena step from village to city in giant steps
And now my plan is to take the ashes of my future version there to bury them.
..
I took the urn kept in one of the office drawers
The ashes of my version of the future are kept there
It's just a simple earth-colored urn that I made with magic, there was no need for decorations since something like that is not customary in this world.
-Well Mr. Orsted, I think I'll have to go to Buena to bury this- I said putting the urn in a corner of the office
-But first, I want to take Sylphie with me sir- I said
-Hmm, okay, but come back quickly- Orsted said as he continued to draw the magic circle.
I left the office, told Faria that I would return, went down to the first floor and before leaving...
-Are you leaving now, Mr. Rudeus? - Nolan told me as I approached the exit.
-Not exactly, I'll be back soon, keep working- I told him.
-I see, hey, are you okay? I heard that someone broke into your house to steal, sir- Nolan told me, looking me in the eyes.
-Yes, they didn't take anything, they just destroyed my automaton- I said as I left the building
I walked for a few moments until I stopped dead as I analyzed Nolan's question.
-I haven't told anyone that someone broke into my house....-I murmured
Where did he hear it from then?....
When I get back I'll ask him...
Deciding this I walked back to my house.
I came home and found Sylphie sweeping, she was a little sweaty and her cleaning apron was dirty....
It must be hard to do everything alone, right?..
Sylphie noticed my presence and was visibly surprised.
-Honey, it's still early, has something happened?- he said, wiping the sweat from his forehead and putting the broom aside.
-Sylphie, do you have a lot of cleaning to do?- I asked.
-Well, yes a little, now without Anne things are more difficult...but the good news is that she will be as good as new in a week!- she said excitedly.
Wow, that's good news...
-But you didn't answer me why you came back so early- Sylphie said approaching me
Ah! That's the sign that he wants some petting!
Accepting her request I stroked her head gently and she leaned on me.
-The truth is I want you to come with me on a trip, it's about my version of the future- I said
Sylphie slightly separated from me, somewhat confused, and looked me in the eyes.
-About your other self? What's wrong? - Sylphie asked curiously.
-Well...I want you to come with me to the Buena City,I will take the remains of my future version and bury them there- I said waiting for Sylphie's reaction
Sylphie put on a complicated expression but I had already anticipated this and waited for her opinion.
-Well...do you really want me to go with you? Isn't that something you should do alone?- Sylphie said somewhat unsure.
-Is that so? I didn't know that- I answered, dismayed.
-Ah, no, no, the truth is I have not been through a similar situation before so I don't know how to interpret it- Sylphie said
-Well, it will just be burying my remains in the place where we were born and I want my first wife to accompany me- I said approaching her and hugging her.
I realized that these approaches are very effective with the girls of this world but Nana just calls me Corny
And as expected, Sylphie blushed deeply and squirmed in my embrace.
-W-well, if you say so...o-okay, when is it?- Sylphie said as she returned my hug.
-I was thinking of doing it today, it wouldn't be long and we would return before nightfall- I said, caressing Sylphie's back.
-Ah...ah!, b-but, what will happen with...the cleaning a-and dinner?- Sylphie said almost lost in my embrace
-Don't worry, I promise to help you tomorrow with the cleaning and also Nanahoshi can do us a favor and make dinner, right?- I said whispering in her ear and caressing her lower back.
Sylphie just gasped at this with her face red as a tomato.
-O-okay, now let me go or you're going to make me cum in the middle of the room....- Sylphie said as she hid her face in my chest.
Wow...can I really do that?.....
I decided to try this and caressed her buttocks, Sylphie just squirmed until I felt my shoes get wet....
Oops,I went a little overboard....
Sylphie looked at me reproachfully but there was no genuine anger in her gaze.
-I'm going to change... clean up here in the meantime- Sylphie said as she walked up the stairs
I cleaned up the puddle of love juices and notified Nanahoshi and Lara of my departure, asking Nana to make lunch and dinner.
Luckily for me, she accepted and I said goodbye to her with a kiss.
Lara on the other hand was asleep in her room...
Sylphie finished changing her clothes and so we headed to Orsted Corp.
She looked slightly annoyed as she walked away from me, but she couldn't resist a kiss and she stuck to me like an octopus quickly.
We quickly entered the Orsted Corp building.
-Sylphie, I'll go ahead, I have to ask something here- I whisper to Sylphie at the entrance
She nodded without asking anything and headed for the stairs.
Seeing this I approached Nolan's desk
-Hello again Mr. Rudeus, back to work?- he said to me with a smile
-Hey, boy How did you know someone broke into my house? I haven't told anyone - I said, looking him in the eyes.
Nolan's smile instantly collapsed and he panicked.
-W-well... I heard some rumors from my coworkers- he murmured.
-aha? And what exactly did you hear? - I asked with a frown.
-Well, you see...on the way to the office I heard that someone saw a thief enter his house and leave...that's all I swear!- he told me with visible panic.
And by this point we had already caught the attention of other workers but they were smart enough not to intrude.
-Hmm, I see. If you find out anything else, please tell me. Good job, I said to lighten the mood.
He sighed in relief and nodded with a smile.
How suspicious....I should keep an eye on him more strongly...
With this thought I went up to Orsted's office.
There they were, he and Sylphie, waiting for me.
-Rudeus, did something happen? Why did you take so long?- Orsted asked with a raised eyebrow.
-Nothing important, I was just checking some rumors- I said while taking the urn of ashes
Orsted looked at me for a few moments but decided not to press the issue further.
-Okay, follow me- he said getting up from his desk and walking towards the stairs to the basement.
We walked towards the same teleportation circle that led to Roa
-probably when they return the new protective circle will be ready- Orsted said
-Yes, thank you very much for your help sir- I said.
-It's nothing, after all you are my ally- he answered me with a small smile
With this little exchange we headed towards Roa to travel to Buena
