Magical★Explorer-Chapter 12 - Mizumori Yukine

Mizumori Yukine

The benefit of staying at the Hanamura house is not just being able to learn magic from the pair of Hanamura family Mother and daughter. I also gain access to their workshop, plus there is no bothersome curfew to worry about.

But most importantly, I have unlocked a certain place.

“Ah, That waterfall? Sure, you can use it. But….….how did you know that there’s a waterfall there?”

I hang up the phone before she can ask me more questions.

Since I easily got permission from the landlord, I immediately go to Hatsumi-san’s room and knock on the door.

“Hatsumi-san, I am going out for a run. I will be back by dinner.”

“……Understood.”

I left Hatsumi-san’s room and put on the running shoes I recently bought with my surplus money. I feel like I am losing my sense of money recently but it is probably my imagination. Think of it as an investment. I can use the shoes every day after all.

”Let’s go.”

I am running along the road that was unknown to me until recently. I roughly check the road in advance and got some direction from Hatsumi-san beforehand. However, I haven’t asked her the way to my destination. Thus I will have to rely on my instinct from halfway onward.

“Fu fu fu fu fu fu”

I am running along the road at a constant pace. The road starting to change from concrete to gravel to dirt and finally to a grass field. I gradually move away from the town where people live and enter the forest.

When I ran far enough from the house, the sound from the surrounding changed. From the noise of the trees to the sound of water striking against something. The more I advanced the louder the sound became.

I arrived at the waterfall.

It was fifteen meters in height and around thirty meters in width. The waterfall was smaller and not as flashy as Niagara Falls. However, at such a thin and long waterfall its water surface reflects the sky and shines dazzlingly. Its beauty made me involuntarily take my eyes away with my mouth half-open. Should I describe it as a humble beauty? Also, in the basin, the fallen water created a small hazy white mist.

I unintentionally stared at it but I immediately returned to my senses and started moving to my destination. I walk along the edge of a small river to approach the waterfall.

I am approaching the waterfall and noticed that I can see a rainbow from the right angle in this waterfall. The small rainbow which I haven’t noticed before is wrapping itself around the waterfall.

I keep walking on the path with slightly bad footing and continue behind the waterfall.

“ !………”

I could not say a word.

If I have to put it into word then it was a curtain of water.

This waterfall is beautiful even if I look at it from the back. Over the bluish-white curtain of water is a scene of a lush green forest being bathed in sunshine. When the wind blows, the trees are swayed as if it is swimming in the water and the green leaves are fluttering through the wind.

The scene is overwhelmingly beautiful. My heart was about to be cleansed just by looking. I want to look at it forever, its beauty is on the level that caused me to think so.

However, there is something even more beautiful than that.

Gulped. I swallowed my saliva.

Hyu Hyu Hyu Hyu

The sound of something cutting through the wind can be heard with the noisy sound of the waterfall.

In my sight is a woman wielding a Naginata. Perhaps she already noticed my presence. But she didn’t stop swinging her hand. She stares at the curtain of water and singles mindedly swinged her naginata. She follows it with a stab and swipe.

Actually, I thought she would probably be here. The reason the protagonist could arrive at this place for the first time is that he was guided by her after all. To tell the truth I was expecting to meet her here.

Because she is the heroine that I wanted to meet the most.

A drop of sweat is flying away from her cheek every time she swings her naginata. I wondered how long has she been swinging it like this.? If I look closely I can notice a bead of sweat on her beautiful face.

Even though a beautiful scenery was spread all around me, I can’t take my eyes off her.

Her black hair shined like a shiny onyx, Her uniform face that is like it is being projected from a mirror. Her eyes are sharp like a sword. Her expression that makes you feel a sense of loneliness that seems like it could suck me in before I know it.

If the developer said “ We have made the best girl with our company dignity on the line” the player could retort that “There’s no way that someone like that could be made by human hands” If there existed a goddess in this world, she would already be right in front of me.

I am still staring at her right now, but there’s no reaction from her. It’s like she doesn’t mind at all. To her, my presence was like was like a small animal that is not worthy of any thought. She is excluding me from her consciousness and treated me like I am a part of the scenery.

Her dark hair dances every time she swings her naginata. Her white arm that can be seen from the sleeve of her Dougi is so thin, I am surprised that she can swing her naginata at such an incredible speed.

I tried to wipe my sweat off my eyelids and noticed that my body is slightly shaking.

Is it from fear? My excitement? Or is it from my happiness?

Perhaps I am trembling from all of it, but the strongest feeling is my joy from being able to meet her. I keep staring at her figure that is still swinging her naginata.

How can I not be happy? After all, she is the character I put my heart and soul to raise the most in the game. I never took her out of my party. No matter the situation I keep dispatching her and let her slaughter countless strong bosses in the game. The character I trusted the most is currently in front of my eyes.

That’s right, she is here. In this reality. One of the three strongest of Magiero, Vice-captain of the public moral committee, The water magic master called the Water dragon Princess. Mizumori Yukine is in front of my eyes.
