I Kinda Came to Another World, but Where’s the Way Home?

Kitsune that left the Guild walks towards the job givers house while referring to the map he got without comparing it to Mias map. Finia sat on his shoulder. through a busy street with plenty of houses with a bit of an atmosphere, he contemplates about something.

though contrary to a face thats supposed to contemplate, hes holding the map on his left hand, and strokes his right hand at his cheeks, the one Geno just hit.

[Kitsune-san, are you ok?]

[Well.. Im not ok.. i got a headache]

[even though you put a cool face in the guild huh?]

[nono because i want to pose in front of the ladies]

[Even though in the end it didnt look cool at all and you even flew by that punch huh]

honestly, the damage he received is heavy, he looked wobbly when he walked. Kitsunes [Resilience] can receive pain. even though he receives an attack from a rank E Jitsuryoku owner, but hes not wounded. inside the guild earlier, somehow Kitsune can held himself, although in fact parts of his body is already active. maybe his [Pain nullification] is already active so he didnt felt any pain and just took the hit.

At that time, what Kitsune was thinking about is money (T/L: who wouldnt)

about the earlier, he paid 1 silver coin for registration in the guild, but thats because he already knew the price he needs to pay beforehand, everything runs smooth, but for other prices, Kitsune is not aware of it yet. Though he can try shopping later, but as best as he can, he would like to know the living costs.

but, to ask common sense in this place will embarrass him. to ask things that youre supposed to know is suspicious. another thing, Kitsune is wearing a school uniform from another world which caused strange looks towards him.

[what should i do huh. should i come to Rishes and ask to be taught]

[about what?]

[well about money usage but ive caused enough trouble already.. if i troubles her more than this.. ah better to do this later]

Kitsune thought to ask Rishe, but he already got 3 pc of silver coins. to ask more help from her would embarrass him.basically he just wanted money to shop, but since he dont have enough money, he dump the thought.

and then, he looks at the map while walking, and reach the job issuer house. since there is a girl cleaning, Kitsune decided to ask about the job order.

[Excuse me]

[yes?]

[Im a Rank H adventurer that come for Ms. Miria Airins job request. is she around?]

The girl turned around, and though shes not a beautiful girl, but she have a cute face. the girls seems to be cheery with a brown hair, with a three net braid, which is placed on her shoulder in the front with steady character. her age is probably 13 years old and around 1 head shorter than kitsune.

the girl, realizing that Kitsune is a Rank H adventurer bows her head.

[ah sosorry thanks for coming all this way! im the one issuing the job request. my name is Miria Airin]

[Eh.. ehm youre the one that requested this job?]

[Yes! please lend me your support!]

Kitsune is a bit surprised if thought from the content of the job and 1 pc silver coin reward, Kitsune assumed that the job requester was an adult, but contrary to his assumption, its just a little girl.

Or is 1 pc of silver coin is not a big amount of money, thats what he thought, Kitsune then gave a thin smile to Miria. though Miria felt a shiver with his smile

[Ehm my name is Kitsune. you can call me Kitsune ok]

[Ah.. ok! Kitsune san right]

[Yes, then about the content of the job, what does it mean by run away pet?]

[well, yes since were talking while standing, why dont we come in to the house first, please!]

after the introduction, Kitsune immediately started discussing about the content of the job. but he was taken aback that Miria opened her door and took him inside. is being an adventurer gives you the right to enter someone Else house this easily?, is this allowed?

while worrying Kitsune enters the house.

the content of the job turns out to be simple.

Based on MIrias information, its about a pet called Minimum Rabbit that runs away. Minimum Rabbit is like a pet class animal that you can keep. this rabbit is different with Kitsunes world rabbit, where this world rabbit can be placed on your palm a very tiny rabbit the size of a hamster would be more appropriate.

with such small size, then its dangerous if it were trampled upon. and seems that when it was fed, she forgot to lock the cage, and was gone by the time she realized it. her family searched the whole house but couldnt find it. there is a possibility that the rabbit has left the house. at least thats what they thought, so they issued a job request.

Mirias parent also loved the rabbit so they looked everywhere, but due to their work, they cant spend so much time to look. in other words, its the parents that will pay the reward.

[fun. Minimum Rabbit does she has a name?]

[ah yes! her name is Mimi!]

[thats a nice name. ill try to look for her hope we can find her fast]

[Yoroshiku onegaishimasu (T/N: ummm means looking forward for it)]

[Leave it to me, Miria chan! everything gonna be alright with this beautiful fairy, Finia!]

Kitsune listed to the explanation, then stood. Finia also looked determined, and trustworthy looking. while patting Mirias head, Kitsune then left the house.

Minimum Rabbit, if looked with just an eye, is a small rabbit, and the one raised by Miria is called [Mimi], it seems to be an albino kind. so if it made it out of the city, theres chance that it will be step upon by people walking by. it must be found soon.

basically for Kitsune, he thought its inefficient if the search is based on clues only. so he must have a plan.

[ok, for now, since Finia chan is small, please try to find it in small spaces. i will look in places with peoples.. since there is some possibilities that itstamed.andalso, basically rabbits are stressful in a quiet environment. if it were like that theres a high chance it will die even now, theres possibility that [Mimi] is already dead, so we have to be ready about it]

[ok understood! i will look for her!]

[ah and also,,, if it gets dark, lets gather somewhere]

[okaayyyy]

Finia nod fiercely, and then with a resolve, flew away. she entered a small street afterwards.

Kitsune that sees her off starts his search. Minimum Rabbit Kitsune didnt thought that his first job will be this hard, but even so he thought to keep on going.

then, as the first step, he swings his feet forward.

at that time,

everything,

ended.

[-n?]

under his feet theres a strange object.. it felt squishy and in just a few millisecond, it was squished with a sound like guuu~.

a strange hunch began to surface while his heart suddenly beats faster

slowly he removed his feet, and there it was.

[. so white. hair?]

the cute pet rabbit, lies there squished.

[no no no no its not there just now its not there. i didnt mean to.]

While panicking and sweating on his cheek, Kitsune took the Minimum rabbit on his palm. is it because of his mistake that he didnt saw the foreign object and step on it?. Mimi is not fully squished and dead, but due to the pressure from Kitsunes leg, seems that the bone on its body were broken. and from the mouth, blood was spilling, and if you see some parts were twitching and the shaking body. its fully in critical condition.

[Damn it where did Finia went]

Kitsune is out of luck, Finia that can use healing magic just flew off somewhere. if this continues [Mimi] can die.

[If it dies. we just say its already dying when we found it ok.. Finia~~~chan!]

Kitsune is in critical situation, he run to find Finia.

After a short run to the last area he was with Finia, and walk forward a bit. he found her in the gutter.

seeing Mimi who were half killed by Kitsune, Finia castes her Magic heal. even though Mimi was in critical condition, thanks to Finias heal, it was completely healed and somehow return back to life.

[ahhh. in any case, thankfully nobody realized anything about earlier situation thank god]

[it was about to die, you have to do things rightly you know! and you want to blame other people, youre the worst!]

[seems youre more glad about the dying thing than the founding thing huh]

[working is the essence of life you know! kitsune san!]

[welll yea what ever, jobs done!]

seeing Mimi fell asleep on his palm, Kitsune said that. Maybe it was luck for Kitsune that Mimi showed up on the right time. well. if Finia is not around you can say hes unlucky, but even as such, now he can receive the reward.

together with Finia, Kitsune returned back to Mirias house. of course Mimi was brought by him as well. although he just left Miria house a short while ago. by that short while hes already struggling hard.

[Miria chaa~n, we found her]

[Huh? Kitsune san, isnt this a bit too fast!?]

[Because it she was playing around here, that i was able to catch it]

[ah, re really really. aaa Mimi thank goodness!!]

The door of Mirias house is wide open when he called her, and her face looks surprised. but, when looking at Mimi in Kitsunes hand, she smiled gently spontaneously.. maybe she felt relieved.

Kitsune had trampled Mimi and almost made her died he hid that fact. in other words, no way hell ever say that.

To get the reward after finishing the job, the signature of the job giver must be obtained, and brought to the receptionist at the guild. afterwards he will get a job complete and the reward.

Kitsune that doesnt understand that was explained by Miria, and given her signed sheet.

[so if i give this to Mia chan then my job will be completed right?]

[Yes, Thank you for finding Mimi! Kitsune san!]

[Y Yes lilike. likewise]

Seeing her innocent smile and gratitude, all that flows to his heart. and since he did nearly squashed Mimi, he felt sinful. but anyway, the job is finished, and after finding compensation, he must find a place to stay.

[Ehmm. if you have any trouble, whatever it is, you can ask me anytime]

by saying that, Kitsune felt he shared his sin. Mirias eyes is still shining, and Kitsune didnt look at her eyes. Well.. he just couldnt.

[Then, See you again]

[ya! good luck!]

after saying that, Kitsune rushed out of Mirias house.

Kitsune was running away by coming back to the guild. he met Mia when he entered but he come to the receptionist that gave him the map. Mia is over there right?, she said that after seeing Kitsune, and Kitsune didnt realize that. Its not that Kitsune didnt like Mia, but if its just Receptionist, anyone will do for him. so this time he came back to the receptionist that gave him the map.

but even so, Mia thought whether Kitsune will approach her desk and he felt that Kitsune didnt understand her. well.. He didnt understand it, and she puts an annoyed looks.

[Ano (umm here) please make the job completed]

[EH? ah ok]

[Is there something wrong?]

[N No please hold on a moment]

the Receptionist takes a glance at Mia, and hurriedly process the reward after listening to Kitsune. Mirias job is finished she stamp the documents, and put the paper with Miria signature into one folder.

While Kitsune is processing his reward, and were waiting for the receptionist going inside, he was daydreaming, but somehow felt a stare. he looked at Mia ..Jiii~~~, theres Mia cold glance at Kitsune.

[Nn? whats up Mia chan]

[No, there is nothing at all, Hentai-Sama!]

[eh eh? you forgot my name? its Kitsune, Kitsune you know!!?]

[Dunno]

Listening to Kitsune, Mia put stuck up face and throw her face aside. Kitsune tilts his head confused at Mias attitude, why is she doing that it makes him think, and then he decided not to be hasty. maybe he somehow say or do sexual harassment again so he is hated again.

Kitsune look away from Mia that looks like sighing. Mia looks outside while glancing at Kitsune, But Kitsune already looks away from her. looking at that, Mia felt disappointing and again took a deep breath (sighing fuuu~~~).

this attitude makes the people around the guild, including the other receptionists looks at Mia because she rarely display this kind of attitude. theyre looking while surprised though Mia didnt realized it as well.

[Thank you for the wait! here is your reward, 1pc silver coin]

[Yes, thank you! Yes Finia chan! i finally got some money for our livess!]

[Yess Kitsune san!!]

The lady receptionist that came back to her deck gave the silver coin to Kitsune and Finia that looks very excited. honestly 1 pc silver coin is not that big money for an adventurers reward. if you can complete a magic beast subjugation job for rank F adventurer, the money they can get is a lot more.

seeing those two, the blue haired receptionist that sits next to Mia blushed, and mumbled happily.

[CuCute.]

Hearing that, again Mias face became sour.

Well at any rate, with this, Kitsune had a good start as an adventurer.

End of 13.
