A Comfortable Craftsmanship Life in the corner of Another World: The Workshop the Goddess Gave Me Was a Little Overkill

Episode 19: JK was hiding



On the way home, Mystia patted my chest and said,

“Then, I’ll collect some rock salt as planned and then head home.”

We were told that only the salt would be procured elsewhere, so it was as planned.

“I’m sorry I couldn’t hang out with you.”

“It’s totally fine! As you can see, I’m good at cutting things like rock salt!”

What was different from what I had planned was that my baggage was bigger than I expected, so I decided to part ways.

On my back, the baggage that couldn’t fit in my bag alone was piled up to a level higher than my head and secured with a rope.

It’s like a sherpa climbing a mountain.

Fortunately, even if you pile it up that much, the weight won’t be too much of a problem. This probably doesn’t mean he has a strong body or anything like that. Feel the power of the goddess.

I carry my luggage on my back and head to the base. Mystia goes digging for rock salt.

As for the road, Musubi will take care of me.

“be careful”

“To each other.”

After parting ways with Mystia, I walked through the forest, with Musubi giving me directions from time to time.

“…Now that I think about it, Musubi. There’s a place I’d like to go to. Can you please help me?”

Suddenly, I remembered something.

When I asked Musubi, the spirit beast agreed, flapping its white wings.

Before returning to my base, I took a detour.

“It was there”

What I found was a mark left along the river to help me return to the simple shelter.

What I was aiming for was the location of the shelter I had built on the first day.

That’s because the outer wall of that thing was ‘fixed’ with .

There was a fear that if left alone, that wall would remain unnatural for tens of thousands of years.

I have many doubts, such as whether my power will still be alive even if I die.

However, there is also a saying, “You will be more beautiful than when you arrived.”

I was somehow concerned about leaving a shelter that would (possibly) remain forever.

“Cleaning up after yourself is important.”

Musubi, who followed me, waved her antennae and agreed with my words.

However, after a short walk from the riverside, I found something a bit unexpected.

It’s the remains of a bonfire.

It’s not mine. I haven’t even built a furnace on the ground, and it looks like it’s only been a few days.

“…Did someone use fire here?”

It’s probably not Mystia either. All the cooking is done at the base, and it’s kind of… sloppy.

“Just in case…”

I ‘fixed’’ the luggage on my back to a nearby tree and pulled my body out of the luggage straps on my shoulders.

Then, I raised my voice on the spot.

“Is anyone there?”

I called out into the forest, but there was no response.

“Hmm…I guess I’ll go check out the shelter for now.”

Together with Musubi, I headed towards the shelter.

Eventually, a shelter that even feels nostalgic comes into view.

“Is anyone there?”

Even if I tried calling out to him again, there was still no response. but,

“Hmm? Is the shelter…dark?”

There was clearly a sense of discomfort.

The simple shelter was filled with complete darkness. Even if you stood in a position where you could look into the room from the entrance, you couldn’t see inside at all, it was so dark that it looked as if it had been unnaturally painted black.

It’s like it was painted over with black paint.

“Hmm?”

When I tilted my head to look inside, Musubi made a loud noise and grabbed my shoulder. It pulls me backwards.

I felt like I didn’t want them to get close to the tent.

…Do you hate that darkness?

That’s when I started having doubts.

Suddenly, a crackling sound came from deep within the forest.

I’ve gotten used to this presence by now. Get ready for battle.

“Musubi, be careful.”

When I turned around at the sound, I saw a surprisingly large bear monster already rushing towards me.

It was an attack by a giant brown bear with a sharp shell like a sword on its arms.

 close.

However, has already manifested in his hands. All you have to do is swing your arm.

“Chikusa’s Eisou Juhou–“

However, before I could throw anything, a voice rang out.

From the darkness of the shelter,

!”

Black octopus legs poured out and rushed at the bear that was charging towards them.

It seems that the bear has been hit in the guts, and without being able to do anything, its limbs are entangled in the mysterious octopus legs, and its thick body is tightened.

A gigantic octopus foot that even overwhelms a gigantic mare. It’s a sight that would make you think it was the legendary Kraken if the location were the ocean.

The black tentacles were slimy, and even though it was daytime, they looked dark as if they were in the night, and at first glance, they were wet with an iridescent body fluid.

Then, from the darkness of the shelter with octopus legs, a human covered in a cloak the same color as the darkness emerged.

It was a young girl.

“Kukuku, I’m from the Black Sea…”

A hammer smashes the bear’s head, which has stopped moving due to its octopus legs, from below.

A bear flies to the height of a two-story building. At the same time, the octopus legs get caught up in the explosion and scatter.

Because the octopus’ feet were sudden, I couldn’t stop the hammer that was swinging at me.

“Ah!――――――――――――This is no good.”

While calling back the hammer, I turned to the makeshift shelter and called out.

“…Hey, was there anyone there just now? Did they say they were being attacked?”

The girl who seemed to have come out for some reason returned to the darkness of the shelter in an instant.

A voice came from inside the pitch-black shelter.

“No, there’s no one…”

There is.

When I was thinking about it, a bear’s head fell next to me.

Apparently the hammer hit his throat and blew his neck off.

When I looked at the bear’s head, for some reason, a white cloth was caught in its fangs. Thin and unreliable, torn and swaying.

“……pants?”

In other words, it was women’s underwear.

 why. What’s the situation now?

As I was really confused, Musubi stepped forward.

Shoot a thread from the magic circle and shoot it into the shelter.

“Uhyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!? What is this!? Something sticky!?”

A scream came from inside the shelter.

It probably belongs to the girl from earlier.

Musubi flies upwards.

Then, a girl pulled by a string appeared from the darkness.

“Geeeeeeee!?!?!?!?!”

A girl jumped out with a scream that was uncharacteristic of a girl.

A high school girl whose legs were caught in a musubi thread is hanging upside down.

That’s right, a high school girl.

I’m used to seeing the sailor uniforms worn by Japanese high school students. A high school girl appeared wearing something like that.

“Falling!? No, I’m being pulled!? Which way is it?”

A high school girl who seems confused.

I’m confused too. Why is there a high school girl wearing a sailor suit in another world?

Many mysteries are arising all at once.

…However, I did find out whose underwear the bear was eating.
