T.L I translated this while I am extremely sleepy. I will clean up any mistake tomorrow~~
7th Meal: Inheritance
Currently… I am using a lot of my strength trying to carry the skeletal bodies of the dead.
Spirit-chan requested this of me yesterday.
It sure is inconvenient being a spirit.
[Haah, haah… do it, I can do it] (T.L Not exactly sure how to translate this sound effect properly)
This is tiring! As there are dead bodies all around the village, I have been running around trying to gather them.
Well~ It was hard! I am great! I work extremely hard!
After completing the request, it is already night time.
Well~, as I did a lot of work today… (Nourishment)
[Fui~…Peachy sensei! Welcome]
I started creating peachy from my hand.
I immediately started eat. Taking a bite, chewing it… and swallowing it!
[After a day of work, this feeling it the best…]
I placed one hand on my back and said an uncle-like statement.
… In actual fact, my soul is that of an uncle so there should be nothing wrong with this?
[Well, well… for some reason, I feel that statement is something only a middle age uncle would say]
… Suddenly, a hand appears to be rubbing my head. That hand came from Eltina who came over to talk to me.
There is no other choice since she is a spirit?
[Probably, I think this is… all of it]
Eltina-san looked slightly lonely while she thanked me as she smiled faintly.
Actually, Eltina is also dead and became a spirit now.
[…Well then, we should make a grave and bury them]
I looked at Eltina's face and nodded.
[Well…then, since you completed my request, I must give you a reward]
Eltina-san placed her hand on top of my head and started gathering an unbelievable amount of energy.
Uwaaaaa!? Will it be alright!?
Surely this is not… [You got tricked!? Stupid! Activating cross thunder!]
Dokyaaaaaaa!!
Too bad! You adventure ends now! …Ah, it won't not turn out like that, right?
[…From now on, my knowledge and magic, you will inherit them]
[Eh?]
Three day ago, I roughly explained my circumstance.
From the matter of my leaving the forest, to me not being able to use magic and also having no memories… I told her all of it.
The matter of me not having a name. Being naked… I am naked because of various circumstances.
I decided to name myself Nanashi.
[Nanashi-chan… are you alright? Is it painful?… Actually, this is also my first time using this magic]
…. Will there be any problem?
[The first… and also my last magic. I will definitely succeed!]
Not long after, my head is surrounded by a vortex of light.
The light slowly approaches my head… and enters.
Fuoooooah!? What is that!?
Knowledge that I never knew about including this world magic, language as well as information regarding this world. There are various kinds of information.
All the experience that she went through… ooh, it’s super hard.
Then… all the secrets thoughts she has… I also inherited it.
[…With this, the inheritance is completed]
After the inheritance is completed, Eltina-san… tears started flowing.
[Sorry… Nanashi-chan. Regarding this magic, not only my knowledge, you also inherited my memories. All those memories are unpleasant]
Those bastard that I hate to the core, I must punish them if I find them.
I will do my best, peachy sensei.
[It is alright, there is no problem… Eltina-san]
I used… and clearly it is, this world language to reply.
With this, there is no problem with communication! Myself, I did it!
[That is great, the magic succeeds without a problem…]
This time…Eltina-san breath a sign of relief.
Then, she told me this.
[Well then… it is about time for me to leave this world]
[Eh.. are you really leaving?]
Eltina-san nodded sadly.
However, there are no more signs of rejects in her eyes.
[The matters chaining me to this world, have all been resolved by Nanashi-chan…]
[Really?]
Eltina-san nodded her head and continued speaking.
[Un,un…I am already dead. I have already been dead for 5 years now… so it would not be strange for me to became an evil spirit]
Eltina's started to gradually disappear until I could not see her at all.
Although the time is short, I have been in your care.
That… such a terrible experience.
Facing such a cruel matter. There is no way I have any solutions.
…Ah, I remembered! There is one thing I did not inherit.
I attempted to talk to Eltina-san which has already disappear.
[Eltina-san! I… do not have a real name. Eltina-san, your name… could I… inherit it?]
Yes, name.
I hate deciding my own name as I do not have any feelings for such a name.
Hence… please let me inherit the name of the one that is leaving this world…
I… felt that Eltina-san is watching me once again
[Thank you very much… thank you very much… from now on, you name is called Eltina Ranford Etil]
I smiled happily as tears flowed from my eyes. The previous owner of the name Eltina really disappear this time.
Although… we only interact for a short three days.
However, this… to me, is also an important three days.
Looking at the sky, I saw that it is filled with starts.
That the previous Eltina, could have a long and peaceful slumber.
————————————————————————————————————————–
