Volume 6 Chapter 119

Luna’s past (1/4)
Morning arrived, and I woke up.
I was alone in bed.
Usually on Magic Academy off-campus expeditions, I stay in a shared room with someone. It’s always been Merdi-san.
In the beginning we both slept in separate beds, but as time went on, Merdi-san started to climb into my bed.
It is nice having someone to sleep with.
So I was very happy to share my bed with Merdi-san. Part of the reason why I was looking forward to going on trips with everyone in my class.
But then, yesterday, Merdi-san became Haruto-san’s. She did not come back to our room last night.
『Also I’m taking Merdi. Anyone who has a problem with that, say it now』
— Words spoken by Haruto-san yesterday keep ringing in my head.
Last night I thought Haruto-san was cool— but now I am a bit resentful of Haruto-san.
He took Merdi-san, whom I share a bed with, away. If I knew this would happen, I would have said my 『Objection!』.
…… No, I still wouldn’t.
It does not matter how hard I try, there is no way I can get Merdi back from Haruto-san.
So at the very least, I want to join the Elnor family!
I feel like it’s still too early to marry Haruto-san, but Yoko-san and Mai-san also live in Haruto-san’s house and apparently they all sleep together.
They should also be able to sleep with me too!
Besides, I became friends with Haruto-san first, way before Rifa-san and Yoko-san, right?
I met Haruto-san on the day of the entrance ceremony at Infrus Magic Academy, and we became instant friends.
I am his second friend at the Magic Academy. Luke only became his first by a narrow margin.
On the day I became friends with Haruto-san, he invited me to his house.
At that time, Haruto-san actually told me, 『There is an extra room, so if you like, why don’t Luke and you come and live with me? There is no rent』 –, that was his proposal.
Living on a scholarship and my living expenses being tight, I almost jumped at Haruto’s invitation.
However, I thought it would be too much for me to live in the home of a man I had only met a day before, so I turned his offer down.
Now the circumstances have changed!
Haruto-san…… Can I get him to invite me again?
──***──
It is now lunchtime.
Since I had been working with the rest of the class until yesterday, today I can explore Vestier on my own.
Normally I’d be with Merdi-san—
Today is different, I’m all alone the whole day.
I’m lonely.

I have not done much today, so I’m not that hungry. That’s why I do not feel like leaving my room.
It is times like this I like to read over my diary.
…… That’s it.
It’s been a while since I read back through my first diary.
I took a slightly battered diary out of my bag. As I read it, I recalled the time I came to this world.
 ──***──
Before coming to this world, my name was Kurenai Hazuki.
I was a first year junior high school student, twelve years old.
Back then, I actually had a slight brain disorder and my memory was worse than normal kids.
I would often forget the events of a certain day after only a few days.
I could remember the plans I had made, but my memory retention of the past was particularly bad.
That is why I kept a detailed diary of every day’s events.
Of course, this also means I performed terribly at my studies.
I would try to remember words, place names or mathematical formulas, but a few days later, I would only retain bits and pieces of information.
I read textbooks and reference books more times than everyone else, took more notes, and studied hard. This is how I managed to keep an average place in class.
One day, on my way from school, I, Hazuki, encountered a robber at a convenience store and was killed.
It was a quick death.
It was rare for me to stop at a convenience store, but for some reason I wanted ice cream that day.
When I was about to enter the convenience store, a masked man came charging at me and hit me. I remember feeling a heat radiating in my chest and when I looked down I saw a knife handle sticking out of my chest.
I was stabbed.
I remember how red it was.
I had been trying so hard.
I was not as smart as everyone else, but I tried really hard.
And yet—
Was there no God?
That was the last thing I thought before everything turned completely dark.
After that, I found myself in an empty space. Nothing was around me, nothing above nor below. I could not tell what position I was in, vertical or horizontal.
For a moment, I thought it was heaven. And I was not far from the truth.
There was a goddess there.
She was beautiful.
She was the goddess of beauty and knowledge in my old world.
She made me an offer.
『If you let yourself die like this, you will cease to exist. What a shame it will be to let the world lose your desire for knowledge. What do you think? Would you like a new life in another world?』
It seemed that even the goddess could not bring me back to life in my original world. So, she told me she would send my soul to another world, therefore reincarnating me there.
I was a little worried about this.
But if there is a chance to live, I want to live.
That being said, I had reached my limit in my desperation to keep learning.
『If you accept my offer, you will be reincarnated in another world with some few perks. What do you want?』
— That is what the goddess asked me.
「I would like to have a better memory!」
It was my immediate answer.
I like to learn new things.
I wanted to remember what I know and turn it into knowledge.
I wanted the power to remember.
『I am a goddess of knowledge. I can easily fulfil that wish. And I will also grant you the skill of language comprehension so that you can recognise any information』
I was very pleased with these words from the goddess.
In addition to the power to remember, she will also give me the power to know.
I came to be reborn in this world as Luna-Dillette.
But I did not know anything about this other world. I was not aware there were monsters that fought for survival.
The two skills I was given were 『Absolute Memory』 and 『Language Comprehension』. The effect of Absolute Memory is that I never forget what I see or hear. Language Comprehension is the ability to understand any language and any written language.
I was twelve years old, from a peaceful country, and I was given skills not suitable for combat at all. This is how I started my difficult reincarnation story, in a world where monsters roamed.
