Bakuen teru-jutsu-shi Rūche! Volume 1 Chapter 8

h.e.l.lo, this is LegendaryGomo

Here is another translation for this novel. I'm quite busy today so I can finish one.

CHAPTER 8 GIRL’S RESOLUTION

At the entrance of the cult street I parted away from Natta and on my way home I was caught by lovely voice. 

"Ruche onee-san"

It was Mera-chan. She was putting her hair down today. 　

It is only due to the hairstyle that she seems to be slightly matured than yesterday.

"Good morning, Mera-chan "
"Good morning. And thank you for yesterday."

Mera-chan bowed deeply with a full smile.

"What happened yesterday after that?"
"Yes, I walked with him around here." 

Hehe, he. 

Mera-chan told me happily that he had been there since yesterday.
She taught various things about the city to him as it was the first time he was at Philia City.

The name of the boy in the example seems to be Zebu-kun.
He is 13 years old, same as Mera. Like most outside children do, he has finished school by the age of 12 and seem to be starting apprenticeship work this year.
From now on he plans to go around the country while helping his father's work.

"Zebu-kun, I heard he wants to shop in Philia City in the future"
"Oh, I see." 

I struck off with a smile.
I understand that it is not easy, but I will not put it on my expression.

Terukah City Asir is very restrictive on resettlement, it is inconvenient to get in and out and it is difficult to trade over both inside and outside.

However, if you can place a shop in a city with many populations, the range of business will expand at once and you will be able to expect a stable income compared with the peddler.

"I heard that story and I decided that I want to study hard and become an official and want to change the rules so that people like him can freely enter and leave"
"Oh ... ...."

Compulsory education is up to age 15 in city schools
In addition, officials and those who are qualified go to high school like South Philia Gakuen and study there for three years.
In other words, in order to become a city official, you have to study at least for another 6 years.
It seems that it is an early decision for a young Mera.
But I think it is wonderful to draw a vision of the future from the earliest. I wanted to cheer her from the bottom of my heart.

"Good luck, Mera-chan"
"Yes"

She responds with a smile.

"The destination is long and hard, but .... about Mama"

Mera-chan's house is an old n.o.bleman cla.s.s, and her parents still have strong sense of exclusivity.
I think there is something to think about the future of an important single girl.
But, until now, she was studying after been told by her parents, so now she is trying to find her own goal. 

Just a while ago, she has a shy personality and always been hidden behind the people.
Now she finds her own dream and she is trying to persuade her parents for that.
My five younger Mera-chan seemed to be more matured than me.

"Well, I will excuse myself. Thank you so much for helping me to find him, I think I could not have met him if it is one day later."

Zebu visits Philia with his father at least once in six months, if I could not see him this time, I might not remember him the next time.
It would be painful to only see occasionally, but Mera-chan seemed really happy.

Separated from Mera-chan, I was walking towards my home in a residential area on the hill.
... .... Dream, is not it?
I have a job as much as I want to do.
I would like to be a teacher of a kindergarten or a kindergarten and surrounded by children.
I will start studying for that as soon as next semester.
However, I cannot wipe the feeling that something is missing.

Outside of Philia City, a vast outside world is spreading.
There lives a life I do not know, there are many people I do not know.
Neither Mera-chan nor Zebu thinks of choosing a work that goes straight from the problems inside and outside the city.

How about me?
I wonder if I will finish my life without going out of Philia City one step further.
If Mera-chan did not meet Zebu-kun, it may have been so.
It may be that only one encounter that changed her future. 

If it is due to feelings called love, I think it is wonderful.

I hate life now. It is very important to me.
But sometimes I think.
Maybe ahead, if a fateful encounter awaits and if there is something that jumps me out to the outside world.

Just a delusion. But that is a very fascinating fantasy.
How come? Perhaps, I am envious.
There is a thing about Mera-chan who made a person whom I like as much change.

I wonder if I can do it someday.
A lovely love as long as I change my view of life.
