I Was Reincarnated

Rune"s side

I woke up and I was surprised by a face right before my eyes

(Which reminds me we slept together as I recall)

Seeing that beauty at point blank range is bad for my heart

He"s beautiful, but I can"t see him as a woman at all

No matter how I look at him I can only see a man

Nevertheless, that face regardless of whether it is a man or woman attracts your eyes

(Is it because he is a demon G.o.d?)

However, the first demon king I saw was ugly

Is such a thing completely unrelated to a demon G.o.d I wonder?

Shin-sama who is sleeping while facing up, is completely motionless

It seems Rau has already woken up and is squirming about

"Rau, shall we go eat?"

"What about Shin-sama?"

"Shin-sama doesn"t eat after all, and moreover he"s still asleep, waking him up would be no good, you know"

"Ye~s"

I"m glad that Rau is still an obedient, good kid

We hold hands and go down the long stairway

Since the dining room is on the first floor, going back and forth from there to Shin-sama"s room is a bit difficult

However since we"re beastmen we have good physical strength and, since I was always wearing that plate armor as well, I was fine

"Does Rau want to help too?"

"Yea!"

Today we made food together

It was once again a failure, as I thought this once again confirmed for me that cooking is something you have to practice

Rau tried to help me, and rather than the sword I used to use it seems I will be holding a kitchen knife from now on

(My sword, seems to have been taken)

The armor I was given, as well as the cheap sword my father gave me as a memento, as well as everyone else, was taken away

I am not sure to what extent but such things were probably damaged, since we arrived through Shin-sama"s power there was no time to look around

But since then and from now on, there’s no need to use a sword

If possibly there is a need, it will be the time we have to leave, just Rau and me

Though if Shin-sama were to give me a sword I wouldn"t complain

—————

"When will Shin-sama get up?"

"He seems to be sleeping well, huh"

Although we waited, Shin-sama didn"t appear

Although I went to the room, perhaps because we slept together, even when I went up next to Shin-sama he didn"t wake up this time

Right now Rau and I are in the middle of cleaning

Although I say cleaning, since the only places we can go to, like the rooms we received, the dining room, and the hall, were cleaned everyday it doesn"t take much time

Later is cooking practice, but as I thought I don"t want to waste food so I can only cook when it"s meal time

—————–

In the end, Shin-sama didn"t wake up until the next day

—————–

"Are you going to town with that appearance……."

Shin-sama muttered looking at us

Although this seems not to be an appearance to go to town in, these are the only clothes we have

Simple clothes made out of animal pelts we hunted

There"s also clothes made from linen we wove

"It should be fine to buy"

Although Shin-sama seems to have come to a decision himself, I was fl.u.s.tered

"I don"t need things like (new) clothes"

Something like buying me clothes, it"s an unnecessary waste of money

Even though I can"t even express how grateful I am for just giving us a place to live and food to eat, giving me so much when I have nothing to give in return

"You going around with such a shabby appearance, just makes me feel unpleasant"

Shin-sama said so and I couldn"t respond

Although he didn"t seem interested, he changed the clothes that he had changed a few times with magic and used a black veil to hide his face

(Is there a need to hide his face?)

Even though not much time has pa.s.sed since he was born, but would someone recognize his face?

(Since Shin-sama is so beautiful, is it just that he wants to hide that?)

What a waste

Today just like usual he"s wearing clothes that cover him all the way to his ankles

Black clothes with golden thread embroidering the edges while around his neck an expensive looking gem is attached

To begin with, I thought that the clothes he was wearing before looked good on him, but they weren"t as gorgeous as the clothes he has on now, perhaps it"s that he disliked them so he changed

On the coat he wore when we left together as well, there was expensive looking gems lining it

(I wonder why it is that Shin-sama is always wearing gloves?)

Today"s gloves match his clothes, they are black with gold embroidery

I"ve never seen him without gloves on

Is there some flaw he doesn"t want others to see?

"Do you have your collars"

"Got it!"

Rau answered and I nodded

Silver collars that once put on can only be removed by Shin-sama

Without slave collars on who knows how long it would take to before we were endangered when going outside, so wearing it I have no complaints

"Wait just a bit"

Saying so Shin-sama vanished

But he soon reappeared, and took my hand and Rau"s

"To town"

The moment I thought the room was warping, the scenery changed

————-

(This is town…….)

The town was overflowing with people

It seems that most of them are humans, and, although not as nice as Shin-sama"s, their clothes seemed expensive

Following the humans are subordinated elves and spirits, it"s the first time I’ve seen it

Although until now I"ve only heard about such from the village chief, seeing it myself it seems completely different from what I"d heard

An elf like guy who is walking while being hara.s.sed, the beastman who is clearly made to carry too much baggage, the spirit like guy who had his magic power sealed and was wrapped up in chains

Rau was scared and clung to my leg

I was scared too

This is the future I thought awaited us

"For now, shall we go buy tableware"

Shin-sama acts like normal

Even seeing such a scene, he is not disturbed

I held Rau in my arms and followed him

If we are separated from Shin-sama"s side it"s over, we"d up with such a fate (same as other slaves)

Shin-sama is glancing into stores here and there, searching for tableware

"As long as I don"t show off too much power, it shouldn"t be noticed…….."

His mutter reached my ears

He wants to go to a store dealing with tableware using his power, is it

Although he seems to not want to be noticed, it"s too late as he"s already drawn attention

The clothes he"s wearing are just too gorgeous

Since a veil is hiding his face, it seems it"s drawing even more attention

It looks like there"s no one else who is hiding their face

"Where is a store where you can buy tableware?"

Like that he just asks a shopkeeper

"Sir, is this you first time in this town? Tableware is in the store in the opposite direction from here”

It seems there"s no such store in this direction

"……how troublesome"

Shin-sama let out a sigh and the shopkeeper asked if he should call him a carriage

I understand his goal is money

"It"s fine"

However Shin-sama refused him

(I wonder why it is he didn"t agree?)

Because he didn"t want to waste money?

"If we ride in a carriage, I"ll fall asleep"

Perhaps my expression is too easily readable/seemed strange, as he told me so (without me asking)

Even if that"s all it takes for him to fall asleep, he shouldn"t be sleepy yet

"It"s also the first time in this town for you two too, right? Just say if there"s anything you want"

"Eh?"

Things we want, for beastmen like us just "safety" is more than enough

However right now that desire is satisfied

"A meal"

I heard Rau say, speaking of which, I realized that we hadn"t eaten anything since we woke up

The moment I realized, my stomach grumbled

"Then shall we go"

I followed after the walking Shin-sama

Not far from the place we appeared, there was a store that sold tableware

A bit distant from there was a store that sold grilled meat

When we smelled the aroma our hunger grew

Looking that direction—

"I"ll go buy tableware, use this and get whatever you want to eat"

He put a gold coin in my hand

It"s the first time I"ve seen a gold coin

"This much money…….."

Food shouldn"t be all that expensive though?

—Rune side end—

(Although there"s only the two of them, there"s a lot of different things so I should buy it just in case)

Like plates, I didn"t know there were so many different types so I randomly buy indiscriminately

(Not just plates, there"s also spoons and forks, huh)

I buy those too, and then send them all to the castle

There"s no reason to wait till we return

I"d be an idiot not to use a demon G.o.d"s skills if I have them, right?

As for this world"s money, the value is pretty different

It"s a world where you can buy quite a lot with just one gold coin

One gold coin is worth 20 silver coins, and 200 copper coins

Besides that, it seems there are also silver bills (sheets/plates), speaking of money"s value converting it to my previous world"s value a gold coin is worth about 2 million yen

(In the treasury, there"s an uncountable amount of gold coins though)

I"ve become considerably wealthy

…….though it was originally someone else"s

Since it"s only money others obtained illegally, I don"t particularly care (I stole it)

In the end, I got 10 plates of different size and depth, and bought a large quant.i.ty of spoons and forks

It seems there"s no such thing as chopsticks in this world

Is five gold coins too much for the tableware?

Since it"s (gold) not something I really use though it"s not really a problem

"We await your next visit"

The shopkeeper"s annoying

Probably because I excessively spent money just for today

(Shall I go meet up with Rune and Rau)

The two are eating something nearby

While I went to buy tableware, they probably finished eating

I head towards the store the two went to

————–

(What"s this?)

I can hear arguing voices

And mixed in with that I can hear a child"s crying

(Is it Rau?)

I quicken my steps and I can clearly hear the voice

"So I"m saying this money was received from our master!?"

"As if there"s be a master that"d give a gold coin to beastmen slaves! Didn"t you steal it!"

I understood that the argument was because of the gold coin

However, I only have gold coins on me so it couldn"t be helped

I only put gold coins in my bag when getting things to bring

Although there had been some silver coins scattered about here and there it was almost all gold coins

"What are you doing to my property?"

I call out, and they all simultaneously look over here

"Shin-samaa!"

Rau grabs my clothes while crying

"Rune, did you get something to eat?"

"…….these guys wouldn"t sell to us"

Rune who strongly opposed the human opponent up to just now, called out to me with a face that suddenly looked like he wanted to cry

"I see, I wonder if it"s because they don"t have change, I had thought to buy and get it like this, but we"ll have to go to a different store"

The moment I said so the shopkeeper"s impatience disappeared

Grilled meat is a low-cost, cheap thing

Even so he let the chance to get a gold coin escape

"We’ll never come to this store again. The crime of making my property cry is large…….shall I crush this store"

"T,That"s too much-! Somehow, please forgive me"

Somehow it seems it"s also in this world, he dogeza"d

"What to do? Rune, you decide"

"Eh!?"

Rune made a surprised expression

That should be obvious

If you said a beastman could decide whether or not a human"s store is crushed anyone would be bewildered

"…….isn"t it fine not to crush it?"

Rune said with his eyes swimming

Doing the same actions as that guy, I want to take his hands

"Say your thanks to Rune"

However, Rune isn"t that guy so I endure

Speaking of, since I"ve come to this world, I haven"t embraced anyone, huh

I"m different from a normal newborn child, I have my previous life"s memories and since my body"s an adult"s, wanting to do such a thing is normal

(Should I approach some woman?)

Nevertheless, I am a demon G.o.d, there shouldn"t be anyone I can"t embrace

If I did so on my own without using magic would it be fine, for the time being, I can only look up the information though

We went to a different store, while watching the two eat tasty looking things I looked it up

The amount of received knowledge given to me is too much, so I have to look it up and find what I want to know

The reason my head doesn"t explode is, as expected, because I"m a demon G.o.d

(If you don"t use magic, is doing it on my own fine……no, the feeling is transmitted? What"s with that)

I looked up the information and what kind of meaning it had I knew

In short, if I had any s.e.xual desire it would be transmitted and my partner would also feel aroused

So, that is to say, I can embrace anyone?

For me who hates troublesome things, it"s convenient

"Will Shin-sama eat too?"

Hearing the naive voice, I looked beside me

(Which reminds me, Rau was also around)

Since coming to the castle, she came to sleep together with me in my room

As one would expect, there"s no way I could embrace someone with a little girl in front of me, and every time Rau comes and crawls into bed, what to do

Rune is already an adult so it doesn"t really matter if he hears anything

For some reason Rune also likes to sleep beside me, but if I asked him to return to his room he would probably obey

"I don"t need to"

(Since Rau will be sleeping, I should be able to sneak out)

There doesn"t seem to be any other method, but going out each time seems troublesome

Whether there"s a woman of the night is a bit difficult (to talk about)

In this world, a woman"s position is lower than men"s

For a human woman of low status can only accept treatment like s.e.x slaves

(If I could embraced Rune that would be the simplest solution)

Since I"ve subordinated him, if I think to forcibly do it, I can

However, I don"t like doing it by force

(I"ll try asking)

If he says okay, there will be no need to specially go outside to do it

For the time being, as for "eating" the delicious looking thing, later we still have to go buy a lot

If it"s properly preserved I can "eat" it any time
