Local Netizen Elf’s Life In Another World

Case 11: The goal is the Saint of Artilleries.



Case 11: The goal is the Saint of Artilleries.

After the outing with my little buddies that day, we went out several more times during the period of their stay here in our castle. I have to thank my mom for this, if she didn't invite those two here then I would have been a loner in this world as well.

Eventually, though, they had to go back to their territories, I said goodbye to them, and they promised me to come every time their parents came here for work, so I think I would be able to spend a lot of time with them.

Emy's manor is in East Ayr while Liana's is in the West, I wonder what they use to travel.

As I was thinking about that, I saw Dad touch his hands on Emy and her dad's shoulders, and then they just disappeared.

Oh. Teleportation.

Three seconds later, he came back and did the same to Liana and her mother.

When asked about it, Dad said that not even 10 people can teleport on this whole continent. I guess my dad is pretty insane. But he also said that even for him, teleporting across countries is not possible, and that consumed a lot of brain juice to process, fair enough.

Back to the present.

''Rather than that, I'm sure you have something to say to us, isn't that right?''

...So he noticed, huh. Can't get past 400 years old mom and dad when I'm just 21 combined I suppose.

That's right, I'm planning to tell them everything today, including the fact that I'm not exactly a 5-year-old kid.


''So, don't worry and just say what you want, baby.'' Says my mom, stroking my head.

We are now in the living room, just the three of us sitting on the couch, and I'm sandwiched by my parents.

Diving back a bit, the reason why I didn't tell them that I was a Saint right the instant I could talk is mainly because I wanted to observe the world's situation first.

The goddess told me that the demon king would resurrect in 35 years, now it's 30, I guess. But anyway, I thought I could lay down for a few years at least to train my mana first and try to find more information about this world at the same time. I could ask the goddess, in fact, that's what I did, but she said that she's very busy controlling the weather and whatnot, so she only paid attention to the general situation of the major war with demons, and that I should go find out for myself.

Another reason is that at least I want my grand reveal to be believable, albeit this one is just a minor reason. I don't want to seem like I'm just spouting nonsense, the goddess really didn't give me anything to prove that I'm a Saint. I have a feeling she's telling me to prove it myself.

After reading and asking around for a while, I realized that my decision was correct all along. The main problem is the Empire, it is now waging war with several other countries that share borders with it.

If I were to introduce, let's say, a significantly more advanced version of the muskets that they have right now, like a Kar98Khttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karabiner_98k or the Mosin Naganthttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mosin–Nagant, I fear that everything would spiral down real quick, and we'll be dead by the time the demon king reappear again. 30 years is enough for the empire to wage war everywhere and trample on pretty much every country there is.

So I plan to conceal my identity until I can do something about the in-fighting first, and then hopefully put a leash on those idiots before becoming the ultimate 'Saint of Artilleries'. The goddess approved this plan already.

But now, it should be a good time to tell my parents about this, my plan that is, I'm sure they expected me to be a Saint of sorts, I didn't really bother to hide it either.

''I'm sure you guys have already realized it, but I'm a Saint.'' I say with a confident smile.

''As expected...'' That's my dad, Mom just smiles bitterly.

''Well, I'm sorry I didn't tell you guys about it, but to be honest, I just didn't really have a chance, nobody asked me, so...''

''Don't worry, you're still our daughter regardless...'' Dad lets out a sigh. ''So there's going to be another demon king, and my daughter is the saint... Haah.''

''I have a plan.'' I look up to them. ''Please hear me out for a second.''

I start to tell them my plan, from the start.


''...I see, that's doable, I think. What do you think, dear?'' Dad looks over to Mom.

''I think that's fine, too. We will help with putting the leash on those despicable humans, even if that means we have to intervene in the war.'' Mom replies.

''Mom, I used to be a human.''

''Eh?! Sorry, baby, I don't mean to-''

''Heheh.''

''...??''

''I'm just joking, Mom, I am aware of how ugly humans can be, they're not very clean back in our world either. And look.'' I point to my ears and twitch them a bit '' I'm an elf now.''

''Heh, you naughty little thing.'' Mom catches my ears and starts to play with them, I can hear Dad laugh lightly behind me too.

''Tell us more about past life, Sylvia, I'm very much curious about a Saint's past life, of course if you're comfortable with it.'' Dad says with a gentler tone than normal.

''Sure! And....''

''?''

''...Hanako.''

''My past life's name, you guys can call me that if you want to!''

''I'll call you Hanako sometimes then, I still like the name Sylvia as well, you know?''

''Me too.''

''Mhmm.'' 

After that, we spent a few hours talking about my past life, and as expected, they were very interested in what I said.


Dinner over, now I am back in my room, spending time alone.

Today, I'm happy because I saw more than ever, that my parents truly care about me, they accepted me as who I am and would continue to treat me as their family.

But...

Sometimes I can't help but get emotional, my current parents are great, I love them. But I also love my former family. Every time I remember them, I want to cry a bit. I wonder if they're doing well, my little brother should be a high schooler now, he's a nice kid, so I'm sure he would get a lovely girlfriend...

...

Enough of that, right, let's sing for a bit, I've always loved music, that should make me feel better.

♬ How I wish it were only a dream ♫

♫ Even now I still dream of you 


Phew~, that was great, my 5 years old voice was not very suitable for this piece though.

Should I ask for a music teacher soon? I want to learn instruments, and vocals too. That's a great idea, and also the hot spring.

I still have to hone my Earth magic though, it's not quite enough for what I want to do yet...
