This also marks the day Faust decided to put his teeny Japanese literacy to work
Country of Jewels . Oliverite
A bright light falling from the sky illuminates the city on such a calm day.
「We’re still busy even though I’m already being serious.」
Ronald is seated on a crowded bench with his lawnmower while looking up at the sky.
MC: 「Just a little break.」
I got stuck in this world with Ronald Knox. He’s looking for a way to go back to his original world. I’m also busy and trying to find clues as soon as possible.
What should I do?
「You should sit down too. Here.」
He urges me to sit next to him.
MC: [Ah. Yes.]
As I sat down, he brushed the fallen leaves away with his hand.
(Ah…)
Relieved, I sat beside him.
「Sutcliffe-senpai’s too rough. ”Look for a way to go back"」
（Sutcliffe-san if I’m not mistaken… is his senior at work.)
As he reminisced, lovers in front of us cuddled as they walked
Watching them looking happily at each other, Ronald breathed a dissatisfied sigh.
[That’s it! I’m done with today’s investigation!
Fancy some tea? I'd like to treat you for helping me.]
His eyes were lively behind his glasses.
A cool breeze ruffled Ronald’s soft hair.

A few days from then...
Today, I was also looking for a way to return Ronald to his original world.
「Ha~ no clues today. ]
MC: 「Yeah...」
Beside me, Ronald, looked tired as he stretched out.
「Senpai pushed me to investigate today and went shopping.
That huge fuss settled down, but I don't mind.」
Ronald, unexpectedly diligent isn't he?
Everyday you work hard despite complaining.
[That guy likes picking on his junior.]
He shrugged his shoulders. I couldn't help but laugh.
「Ah? You're laughing? What's so funny?」
I didn't expect him to hear me. I...
>Because that was strange (Sun+6)
>Nothing. Excuse me. (Moon+6)
MC: [ Because that was strange ]
[I don't get your sense of humor--]
Ronald's playful smile lit up my heart.
Ronald is a really fun person. His comfortable smile lights up the sky.
But...
I also remember his occupation.
The first time I asked, I doubted what I heard....
Ronald is a.... grim reaper, wasn't it?
「Right! A die hard grim reaper! ]
Ronald gave a smile and a wink.
(Uh....)
His brightness set him apart from the grim reapers I imagined and I was at a loss for words.
「I had the girls from General Affairs think up that catchphrase... Sam, I think it was?*」
MC: 「No... Sam... you could say...]
(Ronald is a grim reaper... as expected doesn't come with a pin.????)
Grim reapers take someone's lives, don't they?
「That's right.」
（As I thought...)
「To be precise, we judge the person who is about to die and reap their soul.」
Ronald laughed brightly with a tilt of his head.
(It's completely different from the grim reaper I imagined, but I don't think he's lying.)
「Therefore, my principle is no overtime.」
With those words, I had to doubt what I heard again.
MC: 「Over... time...?」
[Yeah. You want me to put it off?]
そう。マジ勘弁してほしいよね
We spoke as we walked through the busy shopping streets
[I don't know why we had to recover more than 1000 souls between the two of us. It's impossible.
This world is のオーリシ, right?]
MC: [......]
Even if this has to do with lives, he speaks of it as if it was a job in a company.
What kind of world is that?
His words surprised me, I couldn't say a thing.

The Night's Still Young
-------
The following day, a busy street bustling with lovers...
Time passed and we were unable to find any clues. As we took a break, I brought him to a jewelry store.
[That's the Kingdom of Jewels for you~ This is the best place to pick a present for a lady.]
Ronald looked happily at the shining jewels as he stepped into the store.
(Ever the natural escort, I can't help but wonder if Ronald was always surrounded by women.)
(It might be for his girlfriend.....)
>Did you see something you like? (Sun+3)
>Is it for a present? (Moon+3)
MC: [Did you see something you like?]
[Hm? Were you thinking of me?]
Ronald looked back at me with interest.
[Yeah, if there are cute girls like you, this world's alright then.]
With those words, he moved his face closer.
MC: [...............]*
With my heart beating like a drum, I felt like I wanted to faint.
Was he joking? Or maybe....
It was hard to tell from just looking into his eyes.
He's got to be kidding...
Embarrassed by my own expectations, I turned my gaze away from him.
MC: [No. I was told you'd be busy with work.]
[I guess it's like that when things are like this...]
This doesn't feel as dangerous as I thought it would....
My eyes turned away from Ronald and back to the store.
(Ah...)
Among the jewels arranged, something caught my eye.
It was an emerald brooch that glowed mysteriously.
Beautiful... like Ronald's eyes.
It drew my gaze in.....
[You want it?]
I heard him from behind me suddenly.
I shook my head in a panic.
>But it is pretty (Sun+6)
>I'd rather be a woman that suits you (Moon+6)
MC: [But it is pretty]
[Yup. It'd look good on you, I think.]
MC: [What... no...]
Ronald turned his eyes back to me as I moved my attention to the brooch.
[.....]
[I'd always thought so but you're pretty humble. Normally not my type.]
MC: [Eh...]
At those words, he looked me over with an unusual expression.
[That's pretty fresh.]
I found him staring from behind his glasses and averted my eyes, not knowing what to do.
MC: [Um... I should be leaving soon.]
[Right, we're done for the day. Fancy a drink?]
MC: [But...]
He flashes a confident smile.
[What's wrong? I've got a good feeling right about now.]
With those words and a wink, he grabbed my hand.
MC: [....!]
Surprised by that hand, my heart felt like it could burst from my chest. But he didn't seem to notice as he pulled me along and walked out of the store....
...
.....
We had a toast in a newly opened bar.
This place is really nice.
A calm atmosphere was created by the music playing.
Ronald sat with his back to the sunlit window and chatted away happily.
[This is the best~! I wish I could do this every day.]
He's probably had a thousand cocktails which he drinks like water.
MC: [It is, isn't it? Drinking at sunset.]
[Well, not just that]
MC: [?]
Ronald has a cheek on the counter as he looks at me**
[Will you also have me?]***
MC: [....!]
My cheeks felt hotter but I'm sure it was from having had a few drinks.
[Hm? Your cheeks are red.]
MC: [It's because I drank a little...]
Embarrassed, I placed my hands on my cheeks. He smiled happily.
He's teasing me... isn't he?
[Barkeep! Another round!]
With that, Ronald lifted his glass.
I rubbed my eyes as the barkeeper emerged from behind the counter, scratching his beard.
Barkeeper: [You had a lot. Are you okay?]
[Keep it coming! The night's still young, innit?]
I found myself attracted to Ronald's fascinating cheerfulness and I had to laugh.
The sun set behind the window, and their evening had begun....
