Asuka of the Scarlet Sky
Chapter 1

Treasury from the otherworld (1)

Fuckin boring

On his way back from school, Kashiwagi Yuuto kicked a pebble he saw on his way while muttering.

The sound of pebble leaping, then it proceeds to jump on the shadow of the telephone pole.

Shit. Is there anything interesting?

*Gusha Gusha*, while disarranging his head, Yuutos irritated voice escaped in the empty road.

He knows the cause. Its a simple story.

Hes a third year student.

That was enough of a reason for him to be irritated.

I want to die

Words he didnt mean leaked out of his mouth. Of course, he didnt want to die.

He doesnt have goals either. He doesnt have a dream. Hes not person that desperately wants to show his cool shape either.

Study is so-so. Sports, he has nice reflexes but since his body cant move well, hes not a person whos doing club activities.

He thought that the results would be good but since his third year his fails his tests and goes down in ranks.

Id prefer to live in a different world instead

He thought about it seriously for a moment.

He doesnt want to be a hero that defeats the demon king. Being a savior of the world is just absurd.

In a fantasy world somewhere, thats right. For example, managing a store with a cute heroine. Obtaining such a modest happiness. I want to become a protagonist of such a story.

Military, Aid, Adventure. Even in the world of delusion, I felt pain for on my own.

Im done

Whispering, Yuuto was tired of himself.

Finding anywhere being a trouble, Yuuto laughed at himself.

After all, I want to do nothing. Im that kind of guy

Just one girl. An existence near him that makes him smile. If theres such a thing, could his boredom disappear a bit? While thinking of such impossible things, Yuuto put force in his right hand.

He stared at his fair palm.

Adults does nothing. Hang in there, they said, but Yuuto doesnt have an idea how to hang in there.

Thinking about it, he never experienced hitting somebody seriously.

Dammit!!

For some reason, he wants to run so bad, Yuuto put force in his legs.

Its been a while since he run. He was happy seeing his field of vision flow.

Eh?

I his vision, a big station wagon1instantly moved.

On that period of time, some complicated light was turned on.

After a short while seeing that revolving lantern, Kashiwagi Yuuto died.

Wide, standing in a wide space.

A white inorganic space where the end cant be seen absolutely.

Yuuto stood up on the place while feeling dizzy on the whiteness of the place.

Ha?

He cant understand and catch up with it.

No, theres one more. Just one more, it was the proof that its a restricted space.

Kuku. What a foolish way to die. Youre too young that my feelings were distorted

Desk. In an elegant desk like in the principals office, a girl was sitting cross legged.

A white long hair. I arrived at the desk.

W-where? I, dead You

Yes. You passed so Its pleasant. What what, what was your last wish? You want to live in a different world? What, youre quite an unusual guy

Not paying attention to Yuuto, the girl was grumbling something while reading a book. The book in Yuutos vision is just pure red.

The only regret after death ispfft. Kuku, well, youre a boy after all. Its obvious that it is such

*Perari2* with the sound of paper being flipped, the girl burst into laughter foolishly. As Yuuto have already guessed what she was laughing about, his face was dyed in anger and embarrassment.

Kuku, a first guy, a first guy. You should rejoice. I like cute men. Lets see, Ill give you one freebie

That moment, the girls hand turned towards Yuuto, the girl in the desk now is in front of him.

To the surprised Yuuto, the white girl grinned wide.

On the girls hand, she grasped a cylinder thats filled with a lot of sticks.

It might be inconvenient to get used to this world. For once, I will give you my power. Pull whatever you like

The girl who laughs while pleasantly grinning, Yuutos body moved without his permission.

Before he noticed, Yuuto picked up a stick and raised it.

Oh? treasure tool creation3. This is rare

The girl opened her eyes in surprise. Then, the girl laughed as she keeps saying you should rejoice4

Even if its a weapon or an armor, as long as you wish for it you will have it. Well, do your best

Then, the girl pushed Yuutos body in a hole.

Eh?

Then just like that, Kashiwagi Yuuto fell off from the white world.

Guooooooooooooooooooooo!!

The warcry echoed, then the vicinity was surrounded by a scorching flame.

Ah, Awa. U, uaa

He looked up his body. A wing that spread in sight. Robust scales, and a fang that shines like a crystal. A magic breath that came from the mouth unconditionally burned whoever it touched.

Inferno Dragon.

In the old days, dragon is a legendary species that Heroes subjugate.

W-why is it in this place. A-as expected, this is an impossible quest for me

Before her is a legendary existence, the lone girl was frightened.

Her waist fell out, not even a cinder was left on the prided sword nor the shield.

Next would be her own body disappearing, the girl gave up and closed her eyes.

(Even not as a hero but a wonderful soldier. I want to become one)

Tightly, the girl offered a prayer on her dead father and mother.

(Father, mother. Right now, I will come over there)

Tears flow down the cheeks of the girl.

Tte, Uoooooooooooo! What the pun5is this!!!?

However, the girls rising resolve suddenly vanished because of a cry.

Hey, W-who!?

Then the girl opened her eyes, she saw a back of a young man with a strange dress.

C-could it be a villager!? N-No. Why!!?

The girls face gradually paled. Did it come to save her? Thats absurd. Although hes a novice, a professional like herself wasnt able to do anything. Its not an opponent where a normal human can handle.

(I-I have to help!!)

At least she can help the young man in front of her. With such thoughts, the girls body moved. However, when her body finally started to move, shes having a hard time standing up because her waist is heavy.

(!!!?)

The girl saw. The inferno dragon, opened its mouth in order to blow the young man along with her.

She wont make it. Thats right, the moment the girl opened her eyes wide.

E-err. A-arms. Certainly, the weapon is!!

A voice of panic can be heard from the boy.

Like this!!

Then, the girl saw. A shining sword appeared in the young mans hand, when he swung it down a torrent of light was emitted and it swallowed the legendary existence.

A sword of light.

Physical attack power: A. Magical attack power: A+. Overall Rarity: A.

Supplementary: Its the first sword Yuuto created. The power of divine protection from the light spirits, its able to discharge light beam on the enemy. Since it was created in the moment, the weapons image is from the game character Yuuto played recently.
