Dropped Into Another World V3C7

Chapter 7 – Studying is Important

「Hnn? Your rordsheep」

I look at Kouyou who has just woken up and still can’t talk straight yet.

She stares at me and rubs her eyes.

My little sister was as cute as her when she was her age.

「What’s wrong?」

Come to think of it, they should be around 8 years old, right?

They are playing around with a lot of energy now but they need to start studying or something.

As I recall, 8 years old should be in the 2nd or 3rd-year elementary schooler.

Should I ask the one eyes to take care of their studies too?

No, I feel like their knowledge is from earth.

If they want to live in this world, they need to learn common sense and knowledge of this world.

Common sense….I might be the one who needs to learn it the most.

Maybe I should study with them too.

「Your lordship? Adobou」

Hnn? What’s that?

Adobo….do you want to play(asobou)?

「Kouyou, it’s still bedtime. You need to take a good rest.」

I doubt if an 8-year-old girl even needs a nap.

I thought naps were only for 4 years old or so.

…..well, okay.

「Aso….bouu」

「Let’s play a lot when it’s time to get up.」

「Kay」

Kouyou falls asleep again.

Given her body size, she’s probably around 130cm.

From that, she should be around 8 years old but sometimes, Kouyou acts much younger.

Is this also a retrograde disorder?

Next time Goddess Aion comes, I’ll ask her if she has any information.

If it’s affecting her mentality, I’ll have to deal with it.

I don’t think we’re going to be able to do anything aside from dealing with it….or just watch over her.

「Well, either way, they need to study.」

「Study?」

I heard a voice from my lower right and my body jerked up.

I looked at the source of the voice and saw a one eye looking up at me.

I already told them that they should at least call me out if they’re going close to me but for some reason, they’re not doing it.

Why?

「Haa, a one eye」

「Yeah, one eye desu」

….hmm?

What is it now….

It’s the leader of the one eyes, isn’t it?

「Is something wrong?」

「No. Everything’s fine.」

I knew it was the leader.

Well, since it’s here, let’s ask it.

「I want the children to study. I’m wondering if there’s any way I can get a teacher to teach them?」

「What should they study? 」

I’ve been thinking about that too.

「Knowledge.」

「About what?」

The one eye tilted its head.

「About this world.」

「Ah, right. The knowledge we got was all from his lordship.」

That’s absolutely not true!

I don’t know how to make a rocking chair or a crib!

….thinking about it, where does the knowledge of the one eyes really come from?

「I wanted them to learn the common sense and knowledge of this world because they are going to live here. Even I want to know the common sense of this world.」

The one eye had a curious look on its face when it heard me.

What’s with you?

Did I say something funny?

「Why don’t you just change the common sense of this world into the common sense of Earth where your lordship came from?」

「Huh?」

Areh?

I think I just heard something very strange.

Changing the common sense of this world to the common sense of earth?

Why did you even think of that?

「With that, we can just teach the children and your lordship’s time will not be wasted.」

Ah, this is not the leader of the one eyes.

It’s the vice leader who’s helping the leader.

It talks like the leader but the way it thinks is a little strange.

「That’s a strange way of thinking. Also, the time you spent on learning can never be counted as wasted time.」

The one eye tilts its head after hearing me.

…..you’re not going to tell me it’s easy, are you?

「I think your lordship might be able to do it if you ask Rope. No, I’m sure you can do it.」

I can do it!

Eh? Really?

No, but I won’t change this world!

「Those who are living in this world will be troubled if I do that. There’s no need to change their common sense.」

「Is that so?」

You don’t look convinced.

But still, how serious is this one eye?

I’m getting worried.

「I’m looking forward to it.」

「What are you looking forward to?」

「Ah, I’m looking forward to learn new knowledge.」

Then don’t do anything extra.

I’ll tell Rope to not do anything later.

However, does Rope have that kind of power?

That’s basically brainwashing.

「I understand.」

Good.

「Since you don’t want to change their common sense, why don’t you just bring someone who can teach them?」

I don’t know why, but it’s depressed.

I could tell from the tone of its voice that it is depressed although its expression didn’t change.

I think it is awfully depressed.

…..Was it serious when it said change the common sense of this world?

I’m curious about what it’s planning to change but it’s better not to ask it casually.

However, it bothers me if I see someone depressed.

I meant no harm so let’s just not be bothered with it.

「Bring a teacher huh.」

That’s a good plan.

「I’d like to have Usa and Kuuhi study together with them.」

It would be better to have proper knowledge when those kids leave this place.

I’m sure they’ll want to do some things when they grow up.

「In that case, a beastkin would be a better choice.」

The country of the liberated slave might still be in turmoil so it would be better to leave them alone.

Come to think of it, I met some of them in the forest.

They had tails so they must be beastkins.

Maybe I should go to their country and ask them.

「Ah, I know the country where Kuuhi and Usa came from but I don’t know where the other countries are.」

I have seen it from the sky with Koa but I don’t remember which direction the country is from my house.

「Is that so?」

「Ah, do you know where it is?」

「Yes, I do. We split up to check out the entire forest.」

What? When did that happen?

「We must be able to protect your lordship no matter where the enemy comes from. To do that, we need to know everything about the forest.」

Enemy?

Do I have enemies?

…..well, I might have some.

I must have made enemies without me knowing.

「I see. I troubled you. Thanks.」

「Unnecessary! Just leave the crushing of enemies to me.」

This little one is too radical.

I should be careful of what I say.

Come to think of it, this is probably the first time I’ve talked a lot with a one eye other than their leader.

The one eyes are always busy so it’s hard for me to talk to them.

Well, this is the result of me asking them to do a lot of things.

「Then, I must bring them a teacher.」

I wonder how.

How do I even do that?

In the first place, bringing a teacher is strange.

It was as if I’m treating that person as a thing…..

「No, I’ll personally go myself and ask that person to be a teacher.」

「Ask?」

Yeah, if I ask this little one, it’s going to kidnap someone from somewhere.

「Yes, ask.」

「I see. I understand.」

But I don’t think I can ask but I’m sure I can hire.

In other words, I need money.

We need to figure out how to make money first.

「Hey, one eye, is there anything in this house that can be traded with money?」

「…..plenty.」

Eh?

Plenty? Are you sure?

「Like what?」

「If you want something that can be easily traded, magic stones would be good.」

Magic stone?

Ah, you mean the stone that comes out from the monsters.

I’ve always called them monster core but it seems like they’re not.

「So that thing is worth something.」

There’s a big pile of them in my room. If I sell around a hundred of them, can I hire a teacher?

「2 or 3 should be enough.」

Two or three?

Areh?

Is the value of teacher stone cheap in this world?

「That’s too cheap.」

「No, that’s enough.」

It assumed me strongly.

…..in any case, I think I’ll go to the beastkin country and trade magic stone for money first.
