Reincarnated in a depressing erotic world but living a normal life (right?) Adventure, debt and…!

Previously in earlier events...

While our intrepid protagonist was peacefully sleeping, trying to heal the (hated) cold, only to wake up in a kind of post-apocalyptic world with a zombie sucking his neck, sohow healing his illness. So, more determined than ever to return to his original world, he used the {Emotional Resonance: Invocation} spell in reverse (without practice) to go back. However, unexpectedly the spell went wrong (obviously), sending him to another fantasy world in the middle of a fierce battle.

And now, in a world of chaos and confusion where an evil organization invades, demons attack, there are tensions and machinations between kingdoms, and even monsters never before seen appearing! The question remains... Will our intrepid hero be able to return ho...?

What the heck was all that?!

Excellent question, dear reader! And well, since so ti passed since I was last on screen, I wanted to do a little summary of the events before saying my line. So, with that said!

HELLO EVERYONE!!

"Sniff... Wow... I missed saying that..."

"Ugh... I didn't need the reminder... Or rather, how did this happen?!"

"......"

OK... I must admit that the truth... Is quite painful... Since I can't deny it...

But you are probably asking yourselves the following!

SERIOUSLY: WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON HERE?!

But fear not, dear readers, for I shall begin to explain!

You see, after arriving in this world, I decided to enjoy it to the fullest, as if I were on vacation, because it’s not every day you get to go to another world of swords and magic to be considered almighty with cheat abilities, save the world, form a team, and maybe, just maybe, defeat a Demon King in the process!

But there was one serious problem, and that is... My terrible sense of direction!

Without a guide, my adventure in another world seed dood from the start, and who knows where it would end... However, destiny had not abandoned yet! And as if by a miracle or perhaps fate, a guide descended to (gagged) and joined my adventure (semi-forced), which allowed to move forward!

That's right! The na of that guide is... It's... Erm...

"Hey, Echidna..."

"Do you rember the guide's na?"

"Ugh..."

.... Stop, dear readers... Don't look at like that... And don't you dare say what I think you're thinking!

You are just like Echidna?

Damn it! I told you not to say it!!

(Slap!)

"Ouch! Thanks, I needed that!"

Ahem—well, getting back to the topic, the point is that after starting my trip, I had to deal with an initial problem.

What problem?

Well, dear reader, it's a small inconvenience or rather a necessary paynt to keep my reliable guide operational: and that is training him!

However, I was facing a pretty serious dilemma, and I know you're wondering what kind of dilemma it is? So let answer right away!

You see, it turns out I have no idea what the guide is capable of doing... Or rather, he doesn't even seem to be very strong... I an, as soon as I arrived in this world, I faced four perverted won, which I'm already used to in my world. ¡However, all of them were strong!

How do I know that?

Well, it's simple, dear reader, and that's because I faced one of them myself, and even though her fighting style was... Erm... To say the least... Impractical?

Okay, who am I kidding, it was a visual degeneration of the sword fighting style!

But still!!

The reality was that I couldn't cause any damage despite attacking from all sides without giving her a second to breathe, and on top of that, she even managed to escape!

Honestly, that woman has my respect, and it seems that she is the guide's master... Yup... I'm still a bit incredulous about that point... But hey, if he says so, it must be true!

Huh...? Aren't I being too hard on the poor guide?

Well.... I won't deny that you're right, but... How should I put it... When I look at him... I can't help but feel that sothing about him... IRRITATES .

And don't get wrong! It's not that I hate or despise the guy just because, rather... How should I put it?... Well, I don't know how to explain it clearly, but... You see, when I arrived in this world I was in my magical girl form, and that ans my sympathy magic was active!

That's why I could "feel" the surrounding emotions, like the "anger" or "resentnt" that those won directed at , including the feelings of the guide lying on the floor at that mont!

And what emotions did you feel from the guide?

... Well... Basically... I can only say a disgusting mix of emotions like powerlessness, inferiority complex, what I can only describe as "he is a man after all," a lot of frustration, and worst of all: a pinch of resignation...

Honestly, I hate those emotions, and they are the ones I dislike the most!

I an, I have no idea how strong the guy was, because at least I could verify the strength of the won by fighting them, and on top of that, they were validated by Silver, Goldie, and even Brownie, so in terms of strength, I must acknowledge them!

However, in contrast, the guide didn't fight, he just lay on the floor, and even when I asked Silver, Goldie, and Brownie for their opinion on how dangerous he was, the answer they all gave was the sa: "weak."

With all that, it's impossible for to have a good first impression!

Besides, the worst part is that he might not have noticed it at the ti, but he unconsciously tried to look under the skirt of my magical girl dress... What word is used in these cases? Oh, right! That was... DESPICABLE.

But anyway, setting aside my personal reasons for feeling a certain aversion to the guy, he is otherwise quite acceptable or even admirable... Although I still don't like him... But getting back to the topic, the thing is that I needed information to train him! However, I couldn't fight him, because the most probable thing, no offense, is that I would end up killing him in the process...

Isn't that cruel?!

First off, don't jump to conclusions! There's a reason for that!!

You see, the thing is that I am not good at "delicate" energy control at all, and right now, with my magical girl magic blocked, I have nothing to limit my attacks when fighting, or rather, I can't fight without limiting myself!

Therefore, I had to think of another solution, and after much thought, I ca to a conclusion! The best way to gather information, gain strength, and explore this world at the sa ti was the most cliché of all: that's right, I'm talking about the Adventurers' Guild!

By becoming adventurers, I can watch him fight to learn what he needs to improve and create a perfect routine for him, while at the sa ti I could enjoy all the clichés that this world has to offer!

IT'S PERFECT!!

.... Or so I thought at first, however, so problems arose that I didn't take into account.

What problems?

Well, you see, at first everything was going pretty well. The road to the city with the nearest Guild was going wonderfully, while I marveled at otherworldly things like monsters, the two moons in the sky, mosquitos exploding when trying to suck my blood, and I even changed my pajamas for modern clothes! (Echidna reminded ). So I felt everything was going very well, and only two mountains were destroyed on the trip!

Why two mountains?

Well, I had to learn to regulate the force of the attacks, didn't I? And well, the mountains were there, right...? So... you know... What better target for training...?

Although don't get wrong!

At first, I didn't an to hit a mountain; instead, my target was a wolf monster that ca out of nowhere... But unfortunately, the attack swept away the monster, the mountain behind it, and a magical lake hidden inside... Yep, it was my mistake. Or rather, I wouldn't even know about the lake if Echidna hadn't ntioned it!

.... All that's left is for to pray that this doesn't have repercussions in this world... And apologize... Sincerely, I'M SORRY!!

But well, setting that topic aside! (escapism) You're probably wondering, what about the second mountain? Well, that one was on purpose, since, taking advantage of when Shija went to sleep (knocked out) thanks to my trusty frying pan (Antonio), I went to practice in the middle of the night, and well, the result was the sa... Again, I'm very sorry about that... But at least I didn't destroy anything important, except for the mountain! (I confird it with Echidna). ¡So no problem!

So, setting aside the collateral damage, let's talk about what happened after arriving at the Adventurers' Guild!

... Actually, nothing special happened... Or that's what I'd really like to say... But as always, the world doesn't work that way!

What happened?

Well, skipping the boring and tedious part, both the guide and I decided to take the Adventurer's exam to start at a high rank imdiately, where we had to face a pretty tough monster. In that exam, the guide did... Erm... decently, I guess... Although frankly, from my perspective, he could have perford better...

Maybe I expected too much?

I actually expected less, but I was pleasantly surprised to see Ki techniques for the first ti!

Frankly speaking, when I found out about the existence of Ki, I tried to learn it imdiately!

RESULT: INCOMPATIBLE

Yep... I... had no compatibility with Ki, or magic....

For what reason?!

The answer to that is quite easy, and it turns out that I was overflowing with power, which ironically overwhelms other power sources. Or, to put it more simply (used by Echidna), it's as if I had an ocean of power—which in this case would be spiritual, cursed, or magical girl energy—and I tried to find a drop—which in this case represents magic—in that vast ocean just to be able to use it.

As you can imagine... It is thousands of tis more inefficient and exhausting to do such a thing than to simply use what I already have!

.... So in that way, my hopes of using those kinds of abilities died... That night, there is no sha in saying.... That I felt heartbroken...

But well, the world keeps turning and life goes on, so I managed to overco that depression! (more or less)

Which leads us to what happened when it was my turn to take the test and face that Golem. However, I had a pretty complex problem when my turn ca.

What problem?

Well, you see, my problem consisted of attacking that Golem without breaking it...

QUESTION: WAS THAT THE PROBLEM?!

ANSWER: YES!!

Look, it's not that easy for not to break that stupid Golem!

To start, if I resonated with Silver, I could easily cut it. However! If I did that, due to the properties of the gray flas that nullify all phenona, including regeneration, the Golem would be damaged. And unfortunately, the receptionist indicated no destroying the Golem, so that option was discarded!

Then I thought of using Goldie with a resonance, but Echidna said that the Golem would likewise turn to dust with one hit, so that option is also discarded!

Which brings us to Brownie, but sothing curious happened here, since after an analysis of her, there was no way to damage that Golem that didn't involve destroying the arena in the process, so discarded!

At that point, my options were very limited without the magical girl transformation to launch attacks that wouldn't terraform the place, because the aura wave that destroyed mountains wasn't an option either... Okay, I admit I underestimated the exam at first... But in the end, it was harder in an opposite sense!

How the heck do I fight that thing without killing it!!

.... But then a flash of inspiration ca to in my mont of despair, and I noticed: that darn Golem is of the earth elent, which ans that logically it is resistant to fire!

And I had a fire technique (in developnt)!

So, full of confidence, I did a few stretches, and when it was my turn, I entered, preparing the technique!

... But I made a calculation error.

What error?

Excellent question, dear reader, and to answer you, I think it is necessary for you to rember how the Maximum voltage technique works, because when I use it, I transmit spiritual energy into electricity. However, here cos the problem!

And the thing is that at first, I didn't know how to regulate it, so I initially fired it all at once in a single destructive discharge that left exhausted... Why do I ntion this...?

Well, because the exact sa thing happened this ti... Although the biggest difference would be that what I fired was cursed energy converted into fire... At full power... Yup... Let's not even talk about the result, the only thing I can say is that the Guild in that city is now called Eclipse Guild!

.... Stop it!! Don't look at like that! How was I supposed to know?!

At that mont, no one stopped !

Huh...? They tried to?

.... Ahem—well... Let's continue! (escapism)

After that, I was severely scolded after waking up after exhausting all my cursed energy, and as strange as it seems, unlike the spiritual energy which leaves fatigued when depleted, the cursed energy left feeling refreshed after waking up.

Curious, right...?

So, in conclusion and without further ado!

.... The Golem disappeared.

Yep... It didn't leave a trace of its existence... As you can imagine, this had an unfortunate outco... For , because they charged for that stupid thing!

AND NOW I HAVE A DEBT!!

Haaah... Haa... Haa... You know... I'm starting to think that ever since I arrived in this world, I keep getting monetary debts... I'm starting to think the world has a plot against ...

But oh well, in that way, now I am working alongside the guide (I leave the work to him) to exterminate monsters and pay off that absurd debt!

Which brings us to the present...

"Does anyone know how to read a map of this world...?"

("No!")

("Denial, denial~")

("Clink, clack")

..... I'm screwed.
