Original subtitles

These came out very well.

As soon as this magazine goes on sale...

everyone will take note of this boy from back then.

What do you plan to do?

I think other agencies are likely to make their moves quickly.

I'm the one who put together this special issue.

Once certain obstacles are removed, he won't be able to refuse anymore.

It's only a matter of time before he joins our agency.

Is that really how it will go?

Now...

Even his casual poses hit hard♥

what sort of major debut shall I prepare for him?

To the Royal Capital

I Got a Cheat Skill in and Became Unrivaled in The Real World, Too

So, this little one is Akatsuki-san?

Nice to meet you.

Um...

For that, you use the formula from the previous page.

Oh, I get it!

You're amazing, Kaori. This is such a huge help.

It's nothing. I really appreciate you teaching me classical Japanese and English.

R-Really?

I only understand them because of my Language Comprehension skill.

What?

Oh, nothing!

It's almost time for our tests, isn't it?

Oh... Yes.

Is something wrong?

No, not really. I'm just not good at math, so...

I'm dreading them a little bit.

Wow. So, even you have things you aren't as good at.

Kaori?

Yuuya-san...

Yuuya-san, why don't we study for the test at your house?

Um, Yuuya-san?

May I use your restroom?

Of course! Please do!

This is the first time I've had a girl at the house.

It's making me feel a little nervous.

I wonder if she'll be able to find the bathroom.

Kaori!

I'm sorry.

I didn't know where the bathroom was and I felt like someone was calling me,

so I ended up here.

Um...

You may not believe me, but that door...

it connects to another world.

Another world?

Y-Yeah.

Kaori, try putting your hand through here.

What? Um, all right.

Apparently, this door only lets the people I designate through.

I see.

But, "another world"?

What does that mean?

It's just like it sounds.

A world that isn't Earth.

For example, there's magic in that world,

and I've learned how to use it.

Like this.

It really is water.

In addition to magic, I've gained lots of abilities that are impossible on Earth.

Thanks to those skills, when those delinquents came to the school,

and when the department store was on fire,

I was able to rescue you and the others.

So, that's what it was.

Would you like to go to the other world?

May I?

Of course.

Yes, please!

Incredible...

This is another world?

This really is a different world from Earth.

I met Night and Akatsuki in this world.

Night is a Black Fenrir, a relative of the wolf.

Akatsuki is a Mouju. Apparently, that's the name of his species.

Mouju?

You've never heard of it, right?

I think it's probably related to pigs.

He seems a little angry.

Maybe he's saying he isn't a pig?

Wh-What's that?

Kaori Houjou

This world has a concept called "stats."

Things are expressed with numerical values.

"Stats"?

This really is a different place from Earth.

Other Worlder

How are they?

They're indisputably higher than mine were when I first came here.

Are they?

I was the lowest of the low, you see.

I came to this world and leveled up.

Leveled up?

For some reason, I lost weight and gained muscle.

My appearance changed.

What I'm trying to say

is that I've been cheating.

Cheating?

The truth is,

I'm not really the kind of person that you guys would accept.

That's why...

I'd like to see more of this world.

I mean... I'd like to show you around, but there are monsters in the forest.

Monsters?

This house is protected by a barrier that runs along that fence,

but it's really dangerous beyond that.

So, maybe another time.

It's a promise, then.

One day, you'll show me around this world, won't you?

Y-Yes.

It's a promise.

About this world...

I'd rather you didn't tell anyone about it.

Do you mean... it would be a secret, just between the two of us?

I guess it would be.

Don't worry! I won't tell anyone!

Th-Thank you.

If we're sharing this amazing secret...

d-does that mean that o-our relationship is special, too?

What?

Nothing. Never mind!

R-Really?

Well, for today, maybe we should head back and study?

Yes.

I've grown a little closer to Yuuya-san.

That's how it feels, anyway.

I have returned, Father!

Lexia, I am glad to see you safe.

Now, Owen. Why is the boy from the Darkest Regions not with you?

My deepest apologies, sire.

Many things happened and so plans had to be changed.

Was the young lady there connected to these "many things"?

It's all because I tried to assassinate Lexia.

Everything was delayed because of it and so Yuuya was no longer able to come.

Hey!

I see. An assassination?

A failed one.

If you failed, why do you still live?

As an assassin, failing in a mission is the same as death, is it not?

I intended to die. However...

Very well.

In the stead of the one who hired you...

I shall put you to death!

Father!

Interesting.

So, you perceived the Rending Sword Greickle's special trait in an instant.

That sword can easily cut through anything which tries to stop it.

Which is why I stopped your arms instead.

I see.

Father!

What are you trying to do to my Luna?

"My" Luna?

If you're going to be like that, Father, then I hate you.

Hate?

The one who stopped Luna from dying,

the one who made her my guard, was me!

Don't you trust my judgment?

Your Majesty?

Father?

I-Is that so? All right.

Luna, or whoever you are...

I recognize you as one of Lexia's guards.

Please protect my daughter.

Yes, sire!

And... could you undo these threads for me?

Hearing the word "hate" from my daughter struck me deeply.

Now, Owen...

That girl, Luna, appeared to be very skilled.

Very perceptive, sire.

She is the assassin known as the Headhunter within the Dark Guild.

You don't say. The Headhunter?

And how does this relate to the boy living in the Darkest Regions?

Yuuya-dono caught her!

Then he took Luna and Lexia-sama to his house within the Darkest Regions and—

So... you are telling me... that Lexia went to a man's house?

Um, well... Wh-What?

I certainly hope you aren't telling me that she spent the night there. Are you?

Perhaps?

He may have saved Lexia, but I don't recall allowing him such liberties.

I shall feed him to my blade, the Rending Sword Greickle!

Th-That would be ill-advised!

Especially as nothing of note happened!

You don't know that for certain!

After all, you weren't there!

Damn you!

Either be rational or be shaken! Please just pick one!

The Headhunter has...?

A noble who supports Your Highness

contracted her through the Dark Guild to assassinate Lexia-sama.

And?

The assassination was foiled by someone who lives in the Darkest Regions.

Apparently, the Headhunter then became Lexia-sama's guard.

What did you say? What is the meaning of this?

We don't know what's going on either.

And the person who lives in the Darkest Regions has been invited to the royal palace.

To the royal palace?

Your Highness? What are your thoughts?

I think that this might be the turning of the tides for my father, as well as Lexia.

What?

I shall become king one day, regardless.

I'm just making that happen a little sooner.

Very well. I shall grant you use of my secret weapon.

Your secret weapon?

A Magic-Sealing Barrier.

Once it is activated, no magic can be used within its bounds,

and all outside interference will be cut off.

The magic users who guard the king will be rendered powerless.

The only ones left to fight will be Owen and the Headhunter,

then Father and Lexia.

Even your lot should be able to take care of things then, right?

But if the worst happens and the attempt fails, then Your Highness's position...

All I need do is lay the blame somewhere else.

I see.

Pin the crime upon the person visiting the royal palace from the Darkest Regions...

...and then kill that person.

I don't know who they are,

but they should make a useful stepping stone for me.

Ousei Academy had a holiday to make up for the Ball-Sports Competition.

And after that, there were another three days off in a row.

I took advantage of the multi-day vacation to head to the royal palace.

Sleep Sheep meat. Sleep Sheep wool.

Sleep Sheep Meat A Sleep Sheep drop item. It is characterizedby its dense texture and strongly gamy flavor,so not everyone likes it in regular cooking.However, when smoked, it is a very popularand well known drinking snack.

Wool of the Sleep SheepA Sleep Sheep drop item. It has excellent heatretention and moisture absorption properties,as well as other traits, such as being very pleasantto the touch. Articles such as bedding and clothingmade from this wool are popular among the nobility.However, as Sleep Sheep are very rare, the price ofsuch articles is very high.

Horns of the Sleep SheepA Sleep Sheep Drop item. It cannot beused as a material for weapons, etc.,but when powdered, it becomes a sleepmedicine which induces a pleasant slumber.As such, it is sometimes used by those whoare pursuing euthanasia.

Sleep Sheep horns.

And...

Why?

The usual household goods series.

Hey, Akatsuki. Wake up. We're going.

I guess this is the first town I've been to since I came to this other world.

Cat ears?

No, wait, dog ears?

That's amazing!

And they even have tails!

Wow, I really feel like I'm in another world!

Oh, right! I have to find a place that will buy items from me.

I don't have any of this world's money.

Yuuya Tenjou.

What an unusual sounding name.

And you were born in... Japan?

Forgive me, but I've never heard of it.

Um, it's a small island nation in the East.

I see.

From your appearance, you seem to be of the upper classes.

Oh, no, no! I'm just a regular citizen!

Hmm. Well, one often hears of nobles who wish to conceal their identities.

No, really, I—

So, what is it you wish to sell?

Oh, um... Where did I put them?

You have an Item Box?

These.

They're pepper from Japan.

What incredibly beautiful glass!

Are you really even trying to hide your social status?

Seriously... I'm just a regular person.

I see.

Over these long years, I have taken charge of many different wares.

But I've never seen pepper of such high quality!

I will buy it for one hundred gold coins!

A hundred gold coins?

Um... How much is that?

I'm sorry. I don't know the value of the currency in this kingdom.

Y-Yes, I suppose you wouldn't.

In this kingdom,

an average family of four can live comfortably for a year on five gold coins.

Which means that you'll have enough

for a family of four to live on for twenty years without working.

Here.

What is it?

A Guild Card.

It also serves as identification, so you should keep it with you.

Thank you!

Um, would you be willing to trade with me again?

Of course. I'll be waiting.

Thank you!

And, um, I'd like to go to the royal capital.

Oh, in that case,

toward the edge of town, you'll find stagecoaches leaving for there.

This is... even more amazing.

The number of people here in the royal capital is on a completely different level.

What's wrong?

Huh? Is that the palace?!

I'm going to that incredible palace?!

I'm going to be totally out of place!

I'm so nervous, my stomach is...

Yuuya Tenjou-sama has arrived!

Oh, so he's called Akatsuki-kun, is he?

Yes.

We only met recently, but he's a dear member of my family.

This place really is beautiful.

The gardeners tend it every day.

We're very proud of it.

Still, I was surprised.

I didn't think you would be able to come so soon.

Did I cause you trouble?

Of course not.

I was wondering, where are we going?

The audience chamber.

What?

The... audience chamber?

Do you mean... I'm going to meet the king now?!

Dressed like this?!

I don't even know the etiquette or anything!

Don't worry.

This is an informal audience.

Your Majesty, King Arnold von Arselia,

I have brought Yuuya Tenjou-dono before you.

Well done. Raise your heads.

Yes, sire.

So, you are the gentleman who rescued Lexia?

Y-Yes, sire.

And you are the gentleman to whom Lexia proposed marriage?

Y-Yes?

You are the gentleman, no, the man—

No, the scoundrel who has seduced my daughter?!

What?!

Sire, you are in the middle of an audience!

Can you not restrain yourself?

I can! Of course I can!

Then, do it! You call yourself a king?!

What did you just say? You are my subordinate, are you not?

Father!

I can restrain myself except when I cannot!

This conversation isn't going anywhere!

It's your duty to see that it progresses!

I can't!

I can't! I can't! I can't!

I am the king of the Kingdom of Arselia, Arnold!

I-I am Yuuya Tenjou.

And this is Night and Akatsuki.

What? You didn't even bring a gift for my darling daughter?

Sire! You are being far too imperious!

What is with that attitude anyway?

Hmph!

I'm so sorry! I've been inconsiderate!

I didn't even think of bringing a gift!

Oh, um...

If it pleases you,

what do you think of this for Lexia?

What is that? It couldn't be bedding, could it?

Bedding? Bedding, you say?!

This is called Paradise Bedding, and...

Bedding? Is he...

Oh, my! Yuuya-sama, you're so bold!

You want to take Lexia atop that bedding and transport her to a dazzling paradise?!

He never said that!

Oh, my!

You rogue! You dare seduce Lexia right in front of me?!

Seduce?!

S-Sire!

Yuuya-dono is not from our kingdom!

He doesn't know our customs!

Probably!

C-Customs?

Yuuya-dono.

In this kingdom, giving bedding to someone means that you wish to...

To marry that person, to share a bed together...

I really messed this up!

You shall become rust on the blade of the Rending Sword Greickle, right here.

Your Majesty, deep breaths. Now, take a deep breath!

Father!

Arguing will avail you naught!

Wait!

Sire!

Lexia! Stay close to me.

Assassins?

Who are you?

You're about to die, so there is no need for you to know.

Fire!

A Magic-Sealing Barrier.

Well observed.

With this, no one here can use magic.

Now, King Arnold, Lexia, you will die.

Night!

Akatsuki! You heal the injured!

Who are you? What are you?!

Everything should be fine now.

You're so amazing, Yuuya-sama! You defeated them all in an instant!

Wait! Lexia-san!

Yuuya. Have you gotten stronger than you were before?

Yuuya-sama...

Have I? I don't think...

Yuuya-sama saved all of us!

Why would you attack him with your sword?

What was I supposed to do when you just...

Don't give me excuses!

Yes, Princess.

Sire! Lexia-sama!

I found this on one of the assassins.

Reigar's crest?

My older brother...

Apologies, Yuuya-dono.

I would ask that you lend us your strength for the sake of the Arselia Kingdom.

What?

The royal family... No, the kingdom is in danger.
