Chapter 12
My Entire Class Was Summoned to Another World Except for Me Chapter 12: Right, Let’s fly!
No one could deny that there are some sudden times when a person gets the excessive urge to do something particular; like the desire to eat a particular dish, or the earning to travel to some far away place . For me, Kamiya Yato, that time had finally come .
“I want to fly,” I suddenly declared .
As I read the book, lain on my head, Karen’s, who was sitting on the floor and reading as well, expression changed . She looked at me, confounded, and seemingly wondering what I was talking about .
“What’s with you? You okay?”
She actually asked me that . Come to think of it, I completely forgot that Karen was in here . We’re currently taking it easy in my room as we were reading some books . Since that last case involving those terrorists, my school had shut it’s doors . Temporarily, of course, and as it is Saturday, Karen had the day off as well .
Today, Karen left her hair straight . I found it suited her quite well . As for why she was reading in my room, actually, I don’t know myself . She just barged in, only to then ask if it’s okay to read here .
Honestly, I wanted to ask her why, but I knew that she wouldn’t answer . So I accepted . There really wasn’t any I reason to refuse .
“I’m just muttering to myself . ”
With that said, I stood up from the bed, placed back the book in its place and walked to the corridor .
“You’re going out?”
“Yeah, you can stay here if you want . ”
“...Is that so, take care then . ”
Karen’s eyes shifted low and she weakly clenched the hem of her skirt . I could tell she was feeling...off .
Did something happen? Don’t tell me, are you feeling down because you can’t stay with me?!
... No way . What am I talking about? Karen is not from that type .
“Well then, I’m off . ”
I said and left the room .
Alright, let’s go fly now .
ーーーーーーーーーーーーーー
I finished my preparations and used teleportation magic near the entrance door . I need to choose an appropriate place if I want to fly . It would turn into quite the uproar if I was seen flying in the sky by someone .
That’s why now, I am in the middle of a desert . As for the reason why I came here, I’m not sure because I’m confused as well . I choose the option that takes me to a place without people and ended up here .
The sun is hot and the clouds of sand hurt my eyes . I want to change the place, however, 【Teleportation 】obviously consumes a considerable amount of magic . The used amount changes in proportion to the distance I teleport . For my current status, I can teleport around the globe 3 times, but when I remember that I should come back I become unable to afford using it carelessly .
It was troublesome, so I decided to stay here . I activated 【presence sensation】just in case and started my flying practice . First, what I need in order to fly was 【Wind magic】 . In fact, when I was laying on my bed reading a book, I was at the same time searching for a way to fly . It was then that I discovered that 【Wind magic】 had a fly option .
“Free Gen”
At the instance I chanted this word, a green magic circle appeared under my feet and a gust of wind blew upwards . I began to rise up from the ground, and my started floating . Oh- I’m floating! My heart began dancing in excitement .
Nevertheless, I didn’t know how it feels to be floating until now . It gives the impression as if I can wander anywhere I want . As I was appreciating that pleasant feeling, I tried to move around .
Uuum, What should I do first? Thinking about a way to set out, I pictured the image of the wind blowing from behind . As a result, my body advanced forward . Ohh! That’s how it works .
Now that I grasped the concept of moving, I remained floating around . So that’s what flying means, huh . It feels comfortable . The sensation of the refreshing wind blowing against me is the best part . I feel like I’ve turned into a bird .
As I was savoring my time flying, the 【presence sensation】skill detected someone nearby .
(A person in this place? And alone?)
The fact that there’s someone alone in this vast desert meant one thing . And so, I figured I should check to see if he were ok .
Thinking this, I flew off .
I directed myself to the place where I sensed the presence .
When he came into view, I could tell that the person seemed to be fainting .
The person seemed to be in his fifties, wearing tattered clothes and growing a long beard .
C’mon now, How is it possible to find someone looking like and explorer in the middle of a desert at this point of time? Not to mention he’s alone!
“Heeey, you okay?” I asked as I landed a bit away without him seeing me .
“Uu... XXXXXXXX?”
“Ah, excuse me?” I crouched .
This is bad . What is this guy saying? For someone like me who can only speak Japanese, I have no idea about what is he trying to tell . At least I can tell that it’s not English .
What to do? Should I leave him as he is? I would have done something if I understood his language, but right now, I have no idea about how I am supposed to act . Since he left me no choice, I stood up .
“XXXXX!? XXXXXXXXXXX!!”
Maybe because he thought I was leaving him, the man clung onto my trouser and begged for help .
No, wait, wait, I’m not planning on abandoning you here! I just stood up!
“Wai- stop dragging me like this! You will tear my trousers . ”
“XXXXX!! XXXXXXX!!”
Not sure what he’s trying to convey, however it is clear that he’s not in a qualified mental condition for communication .
“Aargh!! Annoying!”
“XXXXX!! XXXXXXX——-“
I teleported the man who gradually became irritating into the nearest town .
Seriously, what a persistent guy . My trouser is covered by sand because of him now . I wiped my clothes and teleported to a different place this time .
The next location was a place covered by trees, a jungle . I guess I should be okay here .
My magic has been greatly consumed because I teleported that survivor too . I should refrain from using it like that .
Without further waiting, I activated 【Wind magic】and flew in the sky .
Oh, this is impressive . The entire area is covered in green .
I remained admiring the green jungle from above when suddenly, I heard the cry of a bird .
When I turned to the direction of the sound, I witnessed a crowd of birds flying simultaneously towards me . Ah, this is no good . I swiftly moved out from my place to let them advance, but this time, A spear came flying towards my face out of nowhere .
Uwaa, this is dangerous!! I barely evaded the spear and turned to see the place from where it came to realize some sort of tribe standing there . They seem to be the native residents of the place .
Ah, I forgot to activate the 【presence sensation】 skill . Next time I should stay alerted .
The native residents who were apparently confused started screaming at me .
“XXXXXXXXXXXX!!”
Excuse me, what?
Once again, an unknown language came flying to my ears . What is it this time? The words are clearly different from those which the survivor guy used, but I still don’t understand .
What to do? For now, let’s try saying something .
“I’m not intending to harm any of you!! You can relax and go home!!”
“XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX!!”
Screaming those words at them, The native tribe seemed to have gotten offended for some reason and started to throw stones they picked around at me .
Why?! Just why are you doing this to me?
As I evaded their shots while wondering about the reason they were offended, this time the native residents started to loudly scream something .
It seemed like they were calling for someone .
Soon enough, a bunch of people with the same clothes began rapidly assembling out of the blue .
When they finished gathering in a single place, one of them pointed at me .
As a result, the entire swarm turned to glare at my direction .
A... I have a bad feeling about this .
Right when I had such a premonition, the whole crowd aimed their spears at me and threw them .
Uwa, I knew they were going to it . Just tell me what did I do to offend you!!
I realized how meaningless it would be to try solving this misunderstanding with diplomacy as I avoided their spears so then, I decided to run away .
The location I found myself at this time around is a remote snowy mountain .
The problem with this mountain was the disastrous snow storm .
I know that I chose a deserted place as an option, but this is too much! I will freeze to death you know!
“Let’s go back home . ”
I judged that it would be impossible to continue my training at this rate and teleported back home .
After teleporting near the entrance door of the house, Karen appeared from the living room .
“Are you okay? You’re all sullied . ”
“Well, things happened...”
I shifted my sight to my clothes to find them covered by the sand of the desert and wet from the blizzard of the mountains .
I randomly dodged Karen’s question while feeling all worn out and went to take a bath .
ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー
the night has fallen and I was sitting in the living room watching TV when suddenly, strange news started reporting .
“At 7 morning of today in Egypt, the archeologist, Indiego Joors who went missing in the Egyptian Sahara was found in a distant town . ‘I have seen a strange boy . ’ stated Indiegoーーーーーー”
“Ara, weird news . ”
“Ah... yeah, pretty weird . ”
As I was keeping silent about today’s news, I made a promise with myself .
Let’s stop flying for a while .
