Heres the new chapter and prologue for the volume 2.

Eid mubarak for those who celebrating. Enjoy~

Prologue

I, Yuuya Tenjouwas a victim of bullying on earth, but one day I found a mysterious door in my house. Beyond that door is a super-dangerous different world where monsters that you have never seen on earth are running rampant. As a legacy of a person that calls himself a sage, I decided to take over a house that monsters could not even invade along with super-powerful weapons and items.

I managed to make full use of the skills and titles I acquired by coming to the different world, as well as the items that I had inherited from that sage. Moreover, I leveled-up by defeating those monsters and was able to live a life that is one hundred percent the opposite of what Ive lived until now. I could even make friends in the real world and grow up little by little in the different world

After I spent many satisfying days like I had never experienced before, one day, I encountered a human in the different world for the first time. Before this Ive only been fighting monsters, so to meet someone was very refreshing. Well, theres that sage anyway, so I could tell that humans existed there

However, my first encounter with the otherworlder wasnt satisfying; it ended up with me saving a girl in a dress that was attacked by a monster. I thought that I wouldnt meet people again unless I went out of the forest. But now, I meet the girl again in the same way as before.

Please marry me.

..Yes?

I could only be dumbfounded, hearing the sudden words of the girl wearing a gorgeous dress.

What is this girl talking about?

I wracked my brain thinking that the thing that I just heard might be a mistake, but then the middle-aged knight rushed to the girl; he seemed to be in a panic.

L-Lexia-sama!? What on earth are you thinking?

Whats wrong? That was a marriage proposal, you know?

I know that! What I am asking is, why did you say such a thing all of a sudden? Arent you aware of the fact that youre a princess? And you didnt know about him yet!

Its love at first sight! Do you have a complaint?

Why are you mad at me despite being in the wrong!

Uhm, is this something like a show?

I was dumbfounded seeing the manzai-like interaction that took place in front of me; then I involuntarily looked over the surroundings, the other soldiers shrugged their shoulders like saying, Oh, it started again. Eh? Was it a daily occurrence? T-that sounds quite troublesome, huh (T/N: Manzai is a traditional style in Japanese culture similar to double-act comedy or stand-up comedy. )

While thinking that, I looked back at the middle-aged knight and the girl.

The middle-aged knight who noticed my gaze cleared his throat and said: Ahem! Pardon my impoliteness. I showed you something unsightly. If possible, Id like to introduce myself and talk in a place where we could calm down

Im Lexia von Alceria! W-whats your name!?

Lexia-sama. Didnt you hear me say to talk about in a safer place?

I asked before you decided that!

I-I dont know anymore

Hearing the girls words, The middle-aged knight put his hand on his forehead and looked up to the sky.

Well, uh If you dont mind, wanna come to my house?

The middle-aged knight looked pitiful, but since I could only think that my house as a safer place, I suggested so.

Its quite dangerous to invite someone who I didnt know whether theyre an ally or enemy yet, but considering that they had a hard fight against those goblin elites, I think Id be able to manage it even if thats not their real strength.

If the worst comes to the worst, Ill just escape to Earth. Only me who can pass through that door, after all But, well, somehow these people dont seem to be bad. I cant say thats the truth since its just my intuition anyway.

The soldiers who heard my suggestion seemed to be more agitated than I expected.

A-a house!? In this Great Devils Nest!?

I dont know anymore He seems to live here.

Really, who the hell is he?

As the same as the soldiers, the middle-aged knight opened his eyes in surprise, but he immediately nodded.

Thats good then. Thank you very much.

He suddenly invited me to his house! W-wait a minute, I need to prepare my heart first

Lexia-sama, please stop talking already

The middle-aged knight sighed as if he were tired.

There really is a house

Isnt this a completely different space?

Why is this kind of heartwarming space in the middle of this this Great Devils Nest?

At the house or rather, when I invited them to the safe area around the house, the soldiers were stunned, looking at their surroundings.

I guided them to the house as it is, but since theres not enough space for everyone to enter, only the middle-aged knight and the girl will come in, and the others will be waiting outside. We sat on a chair, facing each other, and after taking one breath, the middle-aged knight opened his mouth.

Once again, Ill introduce myself. My name is Owen. I am a knight who serves Lexia-sama in the Alceria Kingdom. This time, I want to thank you for saving Lex No, I have to thank you for saving all of us. Thank you very much.

P-please raise your head! I just happened to pass by at that time!

He suddenly bowed his head, so I hurriedly asked him to raise it, but the middle-aged knight Owen-san didnt want to hear me at all.

No, although it was just a coincidence, this is the Great Devils Nest, after all. Its a miracle that we were able to get out safely after we stepped on this dangerous place. For that reason, I want you to receive my gratitude.

I-I understand

If he takes it that far, I cant say anything more.

My cheeks were twitching involuntarily, hearing the common sense about this forest, even though Ive done it smoothly so far, but this place is still a dangerous place from the perspective of the people from this different world. While I was having that thought, the girl introduced herself once again.

Im Lexia von Alceria, the first princess of the Kingdom of Alceria. Thank you very much for saving me!

N-no, its okay, Im glad that youre safeHmm? Princess?

My mind had stopped.

Now that I think about it again, before we came here, Owen-san and the girl When they were arguing, surely, Owen-san said that Lexia-san is a princess

Umm, Owen-san.

What is it?

Err Lexia-san is a princess?

Thats right. Shes also the first princess.

Ive had treated her impolitely, but Was that okay?

Once I calmed myself, I asked Owen-san, and he nodded with a smile.

Yeah, dont mind that, its okay. This is an informal meeting anyway, and most of all, youre our benefactor.

Still, I thought I was famous, but do you actually mean that?

Oh, uh Im sorry.

I apologized involuntarily.

Please forgive me. I have no idea about the common sense of this world No, it might be something that one should know about.

T-then, should I call you Lexia-sama?

Lexia will do! Please just drop the honorific!

I asked since I didnt know what to call her. She was depressed a little while ago, but this time she said so with enthusiasmwhat a fast switchover. No, wait, even so, if you think about it normally, isnt it wrong to call out a princess without honorific?

Thanks to Owen-san I somehow managed to make her understand In the end, Ill call her Lexia-sama only in public, and Lexia-san when in private. I-I wonder if its really fine? Im just a minor citizen; after all, Im somewhat scared of it

Now that Owen-san and Lexia-san have finished introducing themselves, its time for me to introduce myself.

Um Im Yuuya Tenjou. Im living in this forest.

I have nothing else to say I mean, I do have something else but, as expected, I cant tell them that Im an otherworlder, right?. While in that thought, Lexia-san and Owen-san were talking in a whisper.

Tenjou Yuuya? Its a name that I never heard before. It really sounds unfamiliar in our kingdom

But the fact that he has a family name As I said before, probably he really is royalty or a noble from another country.

Thats true Theres too little information. Anyhow, our common sense had stopped being valid since the moment we heard hes living in this Great Devils Nest

A-ano?

Ah, pardon me So, Tenjou is your name, isnt it?

Eh? Ah no, Yuuya is my given name, and Tenjou is my surname.

Fumu The names order is different from our country. Well then, Yuuya-dono. To tell you the truth, we came to this Great Devils Nest in order to looking for Yuuya-dono. (T/N: In Japanese, the surname comes before the given name, for example, Yuuyas name would be Tenjou Yuuya, but in the order of English, his name would be Yuuya Tenjou, I also made a mistake for his name before, so I would also use Yuuya Tenjou from now on. My apologies.)

Eh? Looking for me?

From the atmosphere, Great Devils Nest probably refers to this area, but it sounds dangerous. Well, its really dangerous, though. Rather than that, did they come to such a dangerous place just to look for me?

And then Lexia-san leaned her body forward with glittering eyes.

Thats right. I came here because I wanted to meet with Yuuya-sama again!

E-ehh? Yuuya-sama is Im not someone befitting of something like that, so if you call me Yuuya

Rejected!

Thats too unreasonable

Why do I have to be called like that by a princess of a country? Thats not funny.

I Ah, do you want to meet me with the same reason as Owen-san? (T/N: He called himself Ore at first and corrected it to Watashi to talk more politely.)

Thats right. I wanted to meet you in person by all means and give you my gratitude.

I see Obviously, Id never imagined that royalty would say thanks directly, and I cant think of her situation, but Lexia-san is an honest person. I remember the situation when the goblin general attacked her, and the fact that she came to give me her thank is

So, please marry me!

Wheres the gratefulness in that?

Yep, why and how does she use the word marriage for that? Is marriage equal as to thanks in this world? Its different, isnt it?

W-wait Lexia-san and I just met and talked in person for the first time. And also, why me?

Why not The goblin general attacked me, and I fell in love at first sight with the figure that helped me so gallantly!

I indeed saved you when the goblin general attacked you, I also dont know what to do now but as expected, its too forced. Can you think a little more about it? Lexia-san is a princess, isnt she?

Thats not good! Its written in the books that there is love which begins from at the first sight, too!

No, no Yuuya-dono also have to study a little more about you first said Owen-san.

I-Im not sure, but Im having a hard time here, Owen-san.

Ano Excuse me. Um Im glad Lexia-san feels like that toward me, but its too sudden

Yup, that must be a suspension bridge effect, right? I mean, I guess shes too excited and isnt able to make a calm decision since she just got out of the situation of being attacked by a group of goblin elites.

I cant talk about love, but I think she should calm down and think about it And also, Lexia-san is a princess, right? Our social status are just like heaven and earth. Im just a minor citizen, after all.

When I apologized and declined, Owen-san didnt seem to be particularly concerned, but Lexia-san flashed her eyes for some reason.

I see This love doesnt seem to be easy! But, I got more fired up! Theres always an obstacle in every love story!

Eh?

No, its nothing. T-then, what if we started as friends?

Friends?

Thats right Its okay, right?

Im delighted if you call me a friend. I hadnt had anyone that I could call a friend until a while ago. It was an unprecedented experience to say so clearly. But Lexia-san is a princess. Is it okay to quickly decide on being friends with me?

Owen-san, who realized my feelings, answered before I asked the question.

It wouldnt be a problem if it is Yuuya-dono. You seem to be a foreign aristocrat or royalty, and on top of that, you live in this Great Devils Nest. There should be no problem with your surroundings

I couldnt hear well because the words in the latter half were sloppy. Why do I have no problem? But I wonder if its okay even if he approves that.

I suddenly turned my eyes to Lexia-san; she was looking at me with hopeful eyes. Ugh If you see me like that

Etto, best regard from now on.

Yes! Likewise!

Thats what she said; she was very happy and gripping my hand. To be so happy just to be friends with me Im so glad, too.

Now that we were able to express our gratitude, actually In fact, I have something to discuss with Yuuya-dono.

Discuss with me?

Owen-sans corrected his seating posture. I also stretched my back.

Yeah, because of the story of Yuuya-dono helping Lexia-sama, His Majesty, the king decided to meet Yuuya-dono to express his gratitude. So, I would like you to come to the royal castle with us.

R-royal castle!?

Royal Castle is the place where the king lives, right?

No, no, no, please wait! Even if you suddenly told to come to royal castle!

Im sorry I know thats too much. However, His Majesty would like to thank Yuuya-dono directly because Lexia-sama is very important to him.

Y-yes, but

Also, its not good to say nothing to the benefactor of a member of the royal family. Excellent intelligence agents of other countries will soon find out that Lexia-sama has been attacked and that there is someone who helped her. If we dont do it early, theyll have a chance to get in.

Ugh

The countries here I cant say anything when it comes to different world cultures. Im just an outsider who was lucky enough to come to this word, after all. Obviously, I have to follow this worlds culture as well.

Ano Is it okay for me to go to the royal castle? I dont know about the etiquette at all

Its okay! Not even I am perfect!

Why are you saying that so proudly, Lexia-sama? And as for Yuuya-dono, I dont think theres anything in your behavior that bothers me particularly.

No, it might not bother you, but what about the king? Arent you supposed to speak politely in front of the king? Theres no way that this level can be considered proper etiquette!

Still, Hearing Owen-sans story, I have to go to the royal castle.

One question, how long does it take from here to the place where the royal castle located?

Its not too far. Around one days journey.

I see

In other words, it takes two days to make a round trip, one day to greet the king, one day for the unforeseen situation at least it needs four to five days, huh I have to go to school, so it seems like the only way is to use the closest golden week holidays.

Excuse me, could you wait for another month?

A month? In other words, in thirty days?

Oh, right. I casually said a month, but even if the flow of time is the same, it may not be the same as how to count the days and months!

Fortunately, its roughly the same as on earth, but Im going to the royal castle, and I have the opportunity to spend time in a different world as well, so I have to be careful about that. The thirty days that Owen-san says were just the same as the number of days until the golden week.

In response to my request, Owen-san showed a little trouble but nodded.

I know this is unreasonable to say. Well definitely wait for a month. After a month, it will be fine, right?

Yes. I can leave the house for a little while at the time.

You did it. Owen! Its the best thing youve ever done!

Isnt that really terrible? Lexia-sama

Owen-san sighed; he looked tired. Then, they suddenly looked around inside the house, impressed.

Nevertheless This house is amazing. There is no sign of monster attacks at all, even though its in the middle of Great Devils Nest. It looks simple, but the house and furniture seem to be made of some fine wood How on earth is it even possible?

A-ahahaha thats a secret

Since I am only benefiting from the wise man, I cant explain why monsters cant attack it. If theres something I can say that is that the wise man-san is impressive. Yup, he really is!

I wont force you to answer. For a magician the results of their research are assets, after all I dont think its so easy to teach because magic created in the process of research is an arcane technique. But still, if we could learn how to safely stay in the super-dangerous zone such as this Great Devils Nest, all of our common sense would be overturned from the root

Yep. Wise man-san, who are you actually? Its not normal to overturn common sense, you know?

Come to think of it; Id like to ask you one thing

Hmm? What is it?

Thats Is this forest really dangerous?

Huh? Hearing my question, Lexia-san and Owen-san were dumbfounded.

W-wait a minute! Wasnt Yuuya-dono living here knowing what kind of place it is?

No, no, thats not how it was

The only thing that happens was the door that I found was connected to a different world, to be precise, its connected to this house where this wise man lived, and I do not know anything about this Great Devils Nest that has appeared in the conversation a while ago. Well, if I say that they wont believe me

Aah Yuuya-dono. Are you serious?

Yes.

As I nodded with a serious expression, Owen-san sighed.

Haah Ive never thought that someone would live in this forest without knowing anything.

I looked straight at his face; he corrected his posture and started to inform me about this forest.

This is a place called Great Devils Nest, and it is said to be the top-class among the super-dangerous zones that many countries decided.

He~h!

I-is that so!?

Why is it dangerous The reason is simple. The deeper you go, the more super-powerful monsters are running rampant. There are lots of monsters inhabiting, right? Even though just one of them has the power to destroy the city or even the whole country. Moreover, since the monsters compete for survival, they also have territory. However, the adjacent entrance area isnt safe either, since the monsters that could destroy a large-scale town such as goblin elites are common to be found there. This isnt a nightmare anymore.

I cant say anything after hearing that, I-I didnt think it was such a terrible place.

Sure, when I helped Owen-san and the others, who were attacked by the group of goblin elites, Owen-san was crossing his sword alone against a goblin elite, but the other soldiers werent able to compete with them, they were pushed all together. If they continued fighting like that, they would have been killed there.

Now Ive talked about this Great Devils Nest lightly, but if I had to put it together in one simple phrase I think its the most brutal land where the living creatures live by the rule of the survival of the fittest.

Huh

And since its such a dangerous place, its not possible to collect special medicinal plants in this forest No, it just not confirmed since no one has ever reached the hinterland, but there would be no one looking for a super valuable herbs without any information. After all, if you enter this Great Devils Nest, you will lose your life.

I couldnt say anything hearing a lot of menacing stories about this Great Devils Nest. Wise man-san Why did you live in such a place?

My face couldnt stop twitching hearing that, then suddenly Lexia-san murmured something while looking around the room.

Come to think of it, we have to go back through this Great Devils Nest again, dont we? Thats so troublesome.

Ah.

Owen-san looked pale as if he completely forgot about that.

Y-youre right. Even to get here was risking our life Still, we have to go back, right!? And if a group of goblin elite No, if a goblin general attacks us

Just after I heard the story, I completely understood why Owen-san turned pale. Well, its unpleasant just to think about going home in a horrible place. I wonder if it exists? Uh The magic that makes you able to go back to the place where you want to go in an instant.

I know magic itself exists since Ive seen the soldier treated Lexia-san injuries before, and on top of that, the devil bear also used it against me.

Ano If you know the way, Ill accompany you back.

Eh!? they were surprised, hearing my suggestion and then started looking at me.

No, I mean, its dangerous around here, and Im used to it Ah, I mean, I (T/N: the same as before, he used ore at first then corrected it to watashi, I dont know how to put it in English, so bear with it :D)

No, you dont have to correct it. There is only us and Yuuya-dono here. More than that, is it really okay? No matter how many monsters reside in, letting you accompany us along this Great Devils Nest is just

Its alright. Oh, but if its late at night, the monsters will get stronger, you know? So if you want to return, youd better go early.

I havent experienced it that much, but sometimes when I explore this forest at night, I encounter a strangely strong individual of the same kind of monster. Therefore, daytime is preferable if I want to explore safely in the forest. The visibility is excellent, too.

And on top of that, now that I know the true nature of this forest, I dont want to know how strong the monsters I encountered at night are. Because, you know, theres that monster that can destroy a country. I dont want to think about it

Seeing me looking at the distance, Owen-san nodded with a little trouble.

I-I see. Then, wed better leave now!

Yuuya-san still with us, right? This is a chance to get along!

Lexia-sama. Youre a princess, so please be a little more modest

Ive abandoned that!

Apologize to modesty. Lexia-san Its a pity to throw away your modesty, so please dont do that. Just like that, I accompanied Owen-san and the others to the entrance of the forest.

Its here Isnt it?

Y-yeah Thats right

Following Owen-sans immediate decision to leave the house, Im currently at the entrance to the forest with Lexia-san and the soldiers. Of course, I followed them to protect them from the monsters, but if I have to go to the royal castle a month later, I thought itd be better for me to know the way to the entrance of this forest.

They went into the forest to find me, it was dangerous, so I thought I had to remember the path to the entrance, so they just need to wait for me and go from there together to the royal castle.

Nevertheless, Im glad we didnt find a very powerful monster.

Eh? the soldiers were stunned.

Perhaps, were lucky since the strongest monster that appeared was a devil bear, and the others were just a group of the bloody ogres, goblin elites, and hell slimes. In other words, I didnt find a new monster.

H-hey, did I just misheard that? I heard that he said those werent powerful monsters.

I-I think so. Its said that a country has to mobilize an army for a devil bear, or that hell slime, it would be the end once you meet it.

Huh? Werent we just got attacked by one? And were still alive.

Sigh, I dont know what anything means anymore

As expected from Yuuya-sama! Yuuya-sama is my prince, after all!

Hmm? I somehow feel like Im being seen with mixed emotions. I didnt do anything wrong, did I?

Owen-san looked at me while I was thinking about that.

Sigh?! I wasnt thinking about how big the impact was

Eh, are you alright?

Im fine. This is just a personal problem Even so, it seems Yuuya-dono alone could break this worlds balances. This I wonder if its good to have Lexia-sama do her best here?

Hmm? I dont know; I didnt hear it, I thought it would be a pain to back to my world again when I returned.

Yuuya-sama!

Yes? Eh!?

I turned around, reacting to Lexia-samas voice, but she suddenly hugged me!?

Yuuya-sama, I dont want to say goodbye here Ill be so lonely

Eh, ah, no, that I understand if youre lonely, but what are you doing?

Lexia-sama was hugging me from the front; her whole body transmitted directly, but Perhaps because I exceeded the allowable range that can be processed with my brain, I had returned to the original tone unintentionally. No, wait, but this situation is too bad!

Yuuya-sama had indeed refused my marriage proposal, but I wont give up! Im getting more and more attracted to Yuuya-samas gallant figure and the kindness that cares for the soldiers and me along the way.

Uh!?

Therefore, when we meet again in a month Ill captivate Yuuya-samas heart at that time! No, Ill show you!

Lexia-san ended up changing her tone and using her finger to point at me.

Be prepared.

All I could do was nod.
