01x01 - I Must Commit Double-Suicide!

[bunniefuu]

River

Look at those rapids.

It's a real man-eating river.

Let us go together, Sensei.

Yeah.

Sacchan.

Yes?

Now we'll be together forever.

Oh?

On this day,

a certain great author

and his lover

left this world.

I see. So this is the world

we go to after we die.

It's a rather Western-styled

place, isn't it?

This is not the world after death.

Welcome, adventurer.

And you are?

I guide those who descend upon this world.

My name is Annette.

Behold, adventurer.

This is a different world

from the one you came from.

You were chosen and transported here…

to this land enclosed in

darkness, Zauberberg

so that you could be a hero who

brings light to this world!

Another world? Transported?

Yes.

In other words, after failing

to commit double-suicide,

I was brought to this strange world?

It sounds like you understand.

Mine has been a life of much shame.

Listen to me, adventurer.

You have been given a mission. It is…

For Commercial Use

Calmotin Sedative

What?!

[ No Longer Allowed in Another World ]

P-Purifying light!

Detoxify!

You don't need to do that, you know.

You're bothering me. Stop that.

What are you doing?!

Stand, adventurer.

You will become a hero and fulfill your

great mission of saving this world.

Mission? I don't care about any mission.

I'm just looking for a place to die.

Stop eating those!

Why would you do that?

You were chosen by this world.

Chosen?

Who asked to be chosen?

Huh?

W-Were you not visited by a truck?

A truck?

Come to think of it, there was one.

That truck was the Other World Selection

Truck, the one that brought you here.

Unhappy

Among the many people in your

old world living unhappy lives,

Pickup / Drop-off

Pickup / Drop-off

Pickup / Drop-off

Pickup / Drop-off

Pickup / Drop-off

Pickup / Drop-off

only those struck by the truck get

to redo their lives in this world.

I've

been

struck!!

You're so

stro- ng,

hero!

I love you!

Happy

That is the World Transfer

Service we provide.

If the truck came for you, that proves

you were unhappy in your old world.

But you were granted the chance to abandon

your previous life and come to this world.

Congratulations!

Now you've done it.

Huh?

That truck interfered with what was to be the

happiest moment of my life, my double-suicide.

Wha—

Who are you to decide if

someone is unhappy or not?

I can hardly believe my ears.

He was saved from a life so unhappy

that he chose to commit suicide.

It matters not.

No matter what this human says, he'll

change his mind once he sees his stats.

Without exception, every

human brought to this world

is granted the ability to

wield superhuman powers.

Poison (Calmotin)

What? He's so weak!

One hit point?!

Poison

(Calmotin)

Not only is the screen bright red,

but he's poisoned? After I detoxified him?

Wait, is he about to die?

That's impossible!

There's no way he's this weak.

There must be a reason for this.

Perhaps he has a special skill

or exceptional ability.

Impossible! I don't believe it!

He's so weak.

I've never seen such a weak Other Worlder.

Well, I'm going to go now.

Wait!

Um, I'm terribly sorry.

You were right. You must've been

brought to this world by mistake.

You neither have the ability to live in

this world, nor are you fit to live here!

Now that sounds like my life.

I see I'm branded a failure

no matter what world I live in.

I'm sorry. It was all our world's mistake.

In any case, please stay here for a while.

In your current state, you're too weak.

You'd be k*lled by monsters

the moment you stepped outside.

Thank you, but don't worry about me.

I'm just looking for a place to die.

This man…

This man is different.

I was once proud to guide Other Worlders.

Where am I?

I've been waiting for you, adventurer.

Welcome to Zauberberg.

Meeting Other Worlders excited me.

But…

Good grief. First a corporate

drone, now a hero?

Pretentious!!

Give me a break.

Won't you please reconsider, hero?

At some point…

Huh? I easily pulled out

the legendary sword.

Arrogant!!

Wow, that's never happened before!

Impressive, hero! I had no idea!

Wow, you're great at this! Oh, I see!

I closed off my heart

and became a woman who simply

flattered heroes again and again.

At least, that's what I thought.

Wait!

At the very least, please take

a profession before you go!

A profession?

I'm a born writer.

Nothing more, nothing less.

Goodbye, girl with the

beautifully-shaped ears.

I understand now.

I…

I had been waiting for this man to arrive!

Another world, huh?

I can't read a lick of that, but I can tell

I can't hope to find a single café here.

Landmark "Great Plains of Ersten" discovered.

Five experience points gained.

I don't know who you are, but stop

speaking directly into my mind.

I suffer from migraines.

Adventurer rose to level 2.

I think I'll die.

No! Release me!

Death Tree has appeared.

You're an adventurer, aren't you?

Sorry, but could you help me?

Please! At this rate, I'll be k*lled!

No!

I'm meeting a lot of people

with oddly-shaped ears today.

In any case, dying women

certainly are beautiful.

Are you listening?!

Could I write a novel based on you?

Huh?! What are you talking about?!

Just hurry up and save me!

Hm?

You want me to save you?

Give me a moment.

Alas, I cannot reach you.

Er, don't you have a sword

or spells or something?

I can't breathe.

Oh, come on! What are you

doing? You're useless!

Well, nice to meet you.

We don't have much longer to live, do we?

Yeah, because of you.

Death Trees have the Suction skill.

They steal the life force

from their captives.

In a few more minutes, we'll be dead.

That's good news.

How is that good news?

You're actually excited as well, aren't you?

Seriously, why?!

I'm beginning to feel weak.

Goodbye.

Hey! Don't give up, adventurer!

What? Seriously?

No way! Say something! Hey!

I never imagined I'd meet

such a confusing end.

What is this?

I failed to die again.

300 damage inflicted by

adventurer's poison.

Poison?

Adventurer has defeated the Death Tree.

Seriously?

He made it k*ll itself by absorbing

poison instead of his life force?

Adventurer rose to level 3.

Does he inject himself with poison?

Wh-What's your deal?

You pretend to be weak,

but you're actually pretty strong.

This always happens.

I'm the one who wished for death,

and yet I survived. That's all.

Up until now, I've tried to die five times.

It's never gone right once.

I-In any case, I don't know

why you're depressed,

but I'm glad I didn't die.

So, um…

Thank you.

I know! You should come to my place!

You did save my life. Let me thank you.

Come on, stand up. What's your name?

People call me Sensei.

Okay, Sensei.

Let's go.

Sacchan.

Let us go together, Sensei.

Did you come to this world, too, Sacchan?

Hold on. My name isn't Sacchan.

Are you listening? Don't forget it.

My name is—

Sacchan.

I said it's not Sacchan!

Hey, where do you think you're going?

Are you listening? My name is—

Sacchan.

Hey!

I just found a reason to live

in this whimsical other world.

I'll find you wherever

you are in this world.

And then…

We'll commit double-suicide together.

O gods of Zauberberg.

Please protect that adventurer.

And please let us meet again someday.

A-Adventurer?!

Hello.

Ah, you've returned!

Sensei, why did we come here?

Let's go.

Who is that woman?

I actually have a question for you.

Huh?

Y-Yes, of course. Ask me anything.

I'm looking for a woman named Sacchan.

Any idea where she might be?

What?!

Yet another woman?!

I have absolutely no leads.

Come on, cheer up, Sensei.

It's okay. I'm sure she's out there somewhere.

What large clouds.

We've still got a ways to go to my place,

so let's stop by the castle town of Roth.

Come on, let's go.

Holding a man's hand in public?

How dare you be so shameless?

Hey, that hurt!

Why did you come with us, anyway?!

B-Because…

Oh, I see.

You're in love with Sensei, aren't you?

M-My motives are not so impure!

As a clergy person, I have a responsibility

to protect this weak Other Worlder.

What? Sensei's an Other Worlder?

No wonder he's so strong.

Strong?

Liar. He isn't strong.

That's why I have to stay with him.

You're wrong.

Sensei k*lled a Death Tree with a

single attack and saved my life.

Saved your life?

You've already grown that close?

You little thieving cat.

You're a real pain, aren't you?

Ah.

I've found something delightful.

I've been feeling so dizzy

since I arrived in this world.

I'm going to sleep for a while.

Wake me once we're in town.

What a comfortable bed.

I'm amazed you can sleep in there.

Goodnight, Annette-kun and Tama.

Who are you calling Tama?! My name is—

He called me by the right name.

Now, let's go.

You're a clergy person, right?

Should you be doing any of this?
