Heres the chapter, enjoy~

Part 2

Yuuya! What are you doing? Lets go quickly!

P-please wait a minute!

The day after the school day. As promised, I was to go outside the Earth house with Ouma-san in the morning.

Since Ouma-san was finally able to go out, I suggested that we all go out together, including Night and the others, but they decided to stay at home this time so that Ouma-san could enjoy the Earth to his hearts content.

It seems that Yuti had made a promise to her friend on the school day, and she was going to spend the day with her friend. Its just as I thought yesterday Im glad to see that shes making friends.

However, Merl-san wanted to observe the Earth again, so the three of us Ouma-san, Merl-san, and I decided to go out this time. If the people find out about Ouma-sans identity, Merl-san would erase their memories and information, so it was very reassuring to have her around.

I hurriedly held back Ouma-san, who was about to run outside immediately, and warned him once again.

Ouma-san! You cant talk when we are outside!

Hmm? I know. I will just need to do this anyway.

Eh?

Ouma-san suddenly turned his gaze to Merl-san and me and closed his mouth.

But.

Its okay to talk like this, right?

Whoa!

This is Is this a form of telepathy?

What a surprise, Ouma-sans voice resonated directly into my mind!

Ouma-sans face was full of pride as he looked at us who were surprised.

Fufun. This way, I could talk without using my mouth, you know?

T-thats right. By the way, can we also talk to each other through the mind?

Yes. This time, I cast a spell on Yuuya and the little girl, so it will not be a problem for us to communicate in our minds while we are outside But, unlike me, if you spend your time in silence, people will look at you strangely, wont they?

T-thats true too.

If we just have conversations in our minds, from the other peoples perspective, were just walking in silence. Regardless of whether to talk to Ouma-san or even Merl-san, it will look strange to the people around us if we dont talk to them either.

For now, Ill only talk to Ouma-san when I have to, and Ill try to keep the conversation in through telepathy.

Well, whatever. The problem is solved now, right? Come on, lets go!

O-Ouma-san!

As soon as we leave the house, I suddenly notice that the people around are looking at Merl-san again.

Well, thats obvious. For all intents and purposes, shes wearing an advanced outfit thats far from modern fashion

Um Merl-san. I was wondering about this yesterday Is it possible to change that outfit?

(Why is that? This equipment is some of the most advanced available in the universe)

N-no, um, I mean, on Earth, youd look very conspicuous in that outfit

(Fumu From my viewpoint, the Earthlings appearance is much more primitive and outdated.)

What the hell. From the space perspective, were outdated. I dont know what fashion is in space.

(Well, I guess thats fine. Now, I would like to collect a little data on the clothing around here)

When Merl-san touched the terminal on her arm several times, there was a light electronic sound, and then suddenly, Merl-sans clothes began to glow!

Wait Merl-san!

(Dont worry. I will instantly delete the memories of anyone who witnesses this scene.)

Scary!

As expected, space technology is scary! Im afraid of memory manipulation and all that.

There are no side effects to this, right? Im getting really scared.

As I was terrified by the alien technology, the glow of Merl-sans clothes eventually subsided, and she changed into clothes that looked like something a normal woman would wear.

(I guess its like this. Ive gathered information from the Earths network, so I dont think its strange looking)

Y-yes. I dont think youll have any problem looking like that I didnt know space technology could do that.

(Its not a problem. This terminal collects information, and the nanomachines will automatically change my clothes to match the information.)

I-I see. By the way, have you already erased the memories of the person who was watching you transform?

(Yes. As a reminder, Amels memory manipulation technology is very advanced, so manipulating memories and information will not have any negative effects on anything.)

I-I see.

Thank goodness! I was wondering what Id do if she said this had any side effects!

What can I say? Merl-san and her peoples technology seems to have already stepped into the realm of the gods, and in fact, almost anything that happens in the world could be solved with their technology.

However, if Merl-san and her people continue to wage war with the planet Dragonia, it will be terrible if the Earth gets involved in this

Regardless of that, Merl-san is now dressed in a way that would be appropriate for walking around the Earth. But her hair still emits phosphorescence, so I cant say that she has completely blended in with the people of Earth

Hey, what are you doing? Lets get moving!

As we were talking about Merl-sans clothes, the impatient Ouma-san urged us to hurry. We followed him as he started running.

Oh!

Ouma-sans eyes lit up at the unfamiliar surroundings.

This is the world where Yuuya lives, huh The architecture and clothing are different from that world.

Well, yes. Especially since Japan is prone to earthquakes, many of the buildings are designed to be resistant to earthquakes

Earthquake?

Hmm? Does it not exist in the other world? Its like the ground shaking

Mm? Of course, the ground shakes when I walk on it

No, its not like that Its because the plates are overlapping deep underground, and the impact of them shifting causes the ground to shake. Its a kind of disaster.

Oh, so there are natural disasters like that

It seems that there are no earthquakes in the other world, and Ouma-san had never heard of it. It was the same for Merl-san, who was listening to the conversation with great interest.

(I see. Is it a disaster unique to this planet?)

Y-yeah, is that what it is? Well, I dont know about other planets, so I cant say for sure

(Right On our planet, there is a disaster called a star storm that occurs periodically.)

Star storms?

(Yes. I think its the same as a tornado on Earth, but its a disaster where asteroids drifting in space pass by in a spiral, spinning at high speed.)

Scary!

I think Im going to be minced just by touching it. Are you okay with that?

The scale of disasters in space is also very different Of course, earthquakes are also terrifying, but

As we proceeded with this conversation, Ouma-san reacted to a car running on the road.

Mm? Yuuya, what the hell is that? I cant feel any magic in that thing.

Its a car, you know. Its not powered by magic; its powered by a fuel called gasoline.

How can it be powered by anything other than magic?

(Well, its a rather primitive energy source, isnt it? Nowadays, the mainstream is using starlight as energy or even magic power)

Heh.. by the way, Merl-sans spaceship doesnt work with that starlight?

(Yes, unfortunately I dont have the parts on hand.)

Apparently, thats not going to work.

While I was talking with Merl-san and admiring the alien technology, I suddenly realized something and asked Ouma-san in my mind.

Speaking of which, Ouma-san, arent you interested in Merl-sans planet and the spaceship?

Yes, Merl-sans planet is definitely more civilized than Earths, and I think it would be much more fun than seeing Earths civilization

Then Ouma-san snorted.

Hmph. Id be lying if I said it didnt bother me, but Its boring.

B-boring?

The little girls planet has advanced to a level of civilization that I find hard to imagine. The technology on her planet is close to the realm of the gods.

(Right. I believe that most things can be done. With our technology, we could extend the lifespan of the people of Earth by a thousand years, and there is no such thing as death by disease on our planet.)

Eeh?

T-thousand years, you say? And there is no such thing as death by disease?

The space is amazing.

Theres nothing interesting about it anymore. In comparison, this Earth where Yuuya lives is a civilization that my imagination can barely catch up with, and every single thing about it is very interesting.

S-so, thats how it is

I dont know about it, but I guess a TV that can project images at a distance is just within the range of Ouma-sans imagination. Its a difficult thing to figure out. From my perspective, all the things on Earth are natural and convenient, but from Merl-sans perspective, they must all be inefficient and inconvenient. Yet, from Merl-sans perspective, these inconveniences may be exquisitely interesting. Its a realm I dont understand anymore.

So with that in mind, Ouma-san and Merl-san continued to walk happily, reacting to everything they saw, but Ouma-sans figure seemed to stand out, and people on the street looked at him with wide eyes.

Whoa? W-whats that? That pet

Wa eh? Thats the guy who appeared in the magazine, isnt it?

Eh? Ah, yeah!

Whats that animal?

I dont know? Its like a monitor lizard, maybe?

I see a monitor lizard, huh? I didnt know there were dragon-like reptiles like that

I mean, taking a walk with a lizard like that is rare. Well, a lizard that size probably needs to be taken for a walk.

They looked at him curiously, but fortunately, they didnt seem to be disgusted by him, which was a relief. Some people were not fond of reptiles. Well I dont know if the Genesis Dragon can be classified as a reptile though.

As I was about to reassure myself, one of the people looking at me suddenly opened his mouth in displeasure.

Dont bring your pets into the city. Youre disturbing me

Ah?

At that moment, Ouma-sans eyes suddenly sharpened, and he tried to put tremendous pressure on the person who had just muttered those words!

I was so panicked that I immediately stopped him in my mind.

Stop, Ouma-san, stop! Youre supposed to be a lizard right now! And yet, if you go out of control here, youll ruin everything!

But, Yuuya. That human said I was disturbing

I understand how you feel, but you have to be patient here!

Mm Im annoyed, but Ill leave it at that just this once

After one last glare, Ouma-san turned his head away.

Then, it seems that my restraint was just a little too late, and the man who made the remark earlier walked away quickly with a pale face. Im really sorry

Ah! Its a lizard!

Eh?

Mmm?

As we continued our walk, we attracted the attention of the people around us. A group of children from the nursery school, who also seemed to be out on a walk, noticed Ouma-san and raised their voices.

The children approached Ouma-san without fear.

W-what is it?

Its Lizard-san!

Awesome! Cool!

Its so big!

The nursery school teacher bowed her head apologetically to the bewildered Ouma-san, who was suddenly surrounded by children.

I-Im so sorry! The children are

No, no, its okay.

Hey, hey! Can I touch it?

Me, me! Ill touch it too!

Then the children shouted to touch Ouma-san, and the teacher looked more and more troubled.

I watched them and talked to Ouma-san in my mind.

Hey, Ouma-san. The kids want to touch you, is that okay?

What? Why should I allow that?

But look at the kids. Look at their eyes; theyre so excited

Ugh?

As I said, the children were itching to touch Ouma-san, and their eyes were shining as they stared at him.

As expected, Ouma-san couldnt bear the pure gaze of the children and nodded reluctantly.

Eei, it cant be helped However, you must cut it out in moderation! I still want to enjoy the Earth!

Thank you.

I thanked Ouma-san and told the nursery school teacher.

Its okay to touch him. But please dont be too rough.

Im really sorry Look, everyone. Lets take turns stroking it gently.

Yes!

The children responded cheerfully and took turns touching Ouma-sans body.

Whoa! So smooth!

So cool! It looks like a dragon!

Its so thick!

H-hey, thats enough, isnt it? Right?

Well, well. Just a little more.

No, but Hey, kid! Dont grip my tail so hard! Oh, dont touch my horn so carelessly! Youll hurt yourself! Hey, dont get carried away!

The arrogant and self-righteous Ouma-san faltered in front of the children. After children were satisfied with some touches, they smiled.

Thank you, Onii-chan!

Bye, bye, lizard-san!

Im really sorry Thank you very much.

No, no. Im glad they enjoyed it too.

After waving goodbye to the children and the nursery school teachers, who bowed repeatedly, Ouma-san laid down on the spot, looking exhausted.

T-those children are fearless I never thought they would be so unreserved with me

But werent they cute?

Well, I guess. Unlike those ugly people who have aged unnecessarily, children are pure and good. Well, theres a certain recklessness that comes with being a child.

Mmm, wasted age is not that there arent adults like that, but.

A few moments later, Ouma-san got up and began to walk again, regaining his composure.

Now, were still going. Follow me closely!

Yes, yes.

Merl-san and I followed Ouma-san as he continued on his way.
