I Opened a Café in Another World.

Volume 1, Chapter 1: Where am I?

I, Risa Kurokawa Claude or Kurokawa Risa, came to this world around two years ago.

I was born and raised in an average country town to an average family. I graduated from an average vocational school and went to Tokyo for work. I was accepted to a medium-small business as an office worker. I worked at the company for two years, and the day after I turned twenty-two…

I came to another world without any preamble.

…Ow, my body kind of hurts.

I woke up from feeling a dull pain on my right side. Even though I went to bed to sleep, I wondered why the bed felt so incredibly hard as I laid on my right.

Despite my room not having a single decorative plant, not even a flower, I could smell greenery as well. When I pried open my heavy eyelids, I found myself in a forest. I was sprawled on the forest floor. Instead of the usual bustle of the city, I heard the light rustling of leaves in the wind.

“…where, am I?”

I tried muttering the stereotypical line.

Of course, no one answered.

For now, I decided to check my bearings. I got up and looked around. I was wearing the loungewear I went to bed in. Although I didn’t have any belongings, I was wearing indoor slippers and not bare foot, thankfully.

I had no idea where I was. There were no signs of people or animals.

That was all. Now, what should I do?

Since I didn’t have anything, I needed to secure the absolute necessities—water, food, and safety. For now, where I was and why I was there was the least of my worries.

Humans are surprisingly calm when they are in a predicament.

Anyways, after concluding I wouldn’t get anywhere in the forest, I decided to aim for a village. Brushing the dirt off of my clothes, I began walking in a direction that looked like north.

…is how I began walking, but I would not reach a road close to humans until two days later. I would lose consciousness there, be picked up by a passing couple, and wake up the next day.

I had no way of knowing that as I optimistically walked at a steady pace.
