I'm stll being held by Kuro, while we proceed through the forest.
As expected of a vampire, running through the forest at such great speed, the wind is too strong making it difficult to look ahead.
The sun's rays streamed into the forest, creating a magical atmosphere.
Everything seems to be different than it was before I woke up ...
A Forest, a place where mysterious powers tend to accumulate, should be riddled by magical beast, but I can rarely see them now.
"It really became peaceful ..."
After a while, Kuro brakes suddenly and stops.
"This is it, this is my home."
"Oh ...~~oh ... !!"
A number of wooden huts are lined up around a huge tree.
Each hut is connected to the other by a kind of bridge, making it more authentic than I expected.
After all, I believed that this was more or less like a secret base for children, but this surprised me.
"It's a pretty crazy house."
"Isn't it natural? Well, I didn't build it all by myself. It's been almost 20 years since it was built ... And your vital signs were getting stronger, so we moved here."
20 years--.
It is not a half-baked number of days.
And l'm sure Kuro was coming to check on me every day until I woke up.
However, vampires and humans still have different lifespan's.
However, I should be grateful.
"Um.. l'm sorry, Thank you."
"Huh, don't worry. Did sleeping for a thousand years curl up your personality? Creepy."
"Oh, shut up! Forget it"
"Hahaha, how nostalgic, I missed this. Well, I have a room made for you. Though, it's kind of nursery."
Kuro looks at me while grinning.
And I glare back with a sullen look.
"A little boy with eye's sharper than a vampires, scary, how scary. Well, jokes aside, it's your room. You can relax there for a while and get your thoughts together."
"Oh ... I'll do that. Tell me a lot about this world."
◇◇◇◇
The children's room is really simple, with a bed, a desk, chairs, and a lot of magic-related books that were probably brought over from my house.
All of them are covered in dust, but magic sure is convenient, none of them are badly damaged.
Even though it is a simple structure, that's only the interior, there are almost no problem with the durability of the house.
It seems that you can look out of the round window, and a cool breeze is blowing in through the openings.
Kuro gently lays me down on the bed.
"Oh ... oh ... oh... oh!"
Even though I had been asleep for a long time, I had been lying on stone for a thousand years.
I couldn't help but gasp at the magical attraction of the soft and fluffy bed and it's all consuming power of inclusion that ruined everyone, for the first time in a long time.
"What the hell kind of voice do you think you are making?"
"‥‥‥‥‥‥Hush"
I close my eyes once more, and feeling calm, take a deep breath.
I'd rather just fall asleep again.
"Hey, did you check the condition of your body?"
"There's no way I did"
I will reply in a blank tone.
"You know, you've been lying there in that same blood soaked magical attire you wore while you were dying for a thousand years, and you didn't even bathe? Do you have any idea how dirty you are? ? "
Kuro grimaces while pinching her nose.
Ah, that hurts...
"Gunuu ... Then why did you put me on the bed!"
"I figured that was better than throwing you on the floor.-So, take it all off."
"Hey, hey--!"
I am helpless, and my clothes were pulled off me as easily as a baby.
The adult-sized baggy magical costume was thrown into a trash can in the corner of the room (Even though it was my favourite ...), and all my underwear and stuff were thrown out, and I lay there naked in just my underpants.
"Kukkuku, you don't look like the world saving-hero with your pathetic, disgusting outfit."
"... He is a hell of a guy for doing it himself ... hero or scholar, we all go back to being babies at night."
"That's not something a four-year-old would say"
"Four-year-old--"
Kuro nods her while grinning.
"Juding by your height, bone condition, and vital signs, that should be the age of your body."
"Ha, ha, ha..."
I hold my head in my hands and hang my head down.
It's a lie ... Then I can't even drink alcohol? ??
"Hey, you don't have to be depressed. You were 21 years old before you fell asleep. Then you were 17 years younger. In all ages and culture people who have money, power, and everything else. all sought immortality. But You are the only one closest to a successful example of that. Are not you happy? "
"Hmm ... well, immortality is a bit of a exaggeration, but it doesn't mean I'm not happy with rejuvenation. It means that I can start over. And I'm ready to accept it as my second life."
"How?"
"Well, isn't it inconvenient being a child? They're short and adults look down on them."
"Because you hate being underestimated, but there are many benefits, you know?"
"--Jeez. Kuro remains the same even after a thousand years ..."
Its finally quite, in my bedroom, and I'm calm and collected in my thoughts.
Thousand years ... Thousand years? I'm sure a lot has changed.
The demon lord is gone, and demon beasts are no longer the threat they used to be.
I wonder how much the country has changed over time. Did it disappear or increase?
Mystio's magician squad in which I was in ... I'm sure due to the thousand years of training, and it must have become so powerful that it can't be matched by previous magic. I'm looking forward to seeing it.
They're the five who traveled with me.
Ugan, Elena, Nirfa, Sieg, Quinn ... They themselves died in that battle, but the clan would surely have prospered with the rewards of the king.
its possible to meet them somewhere.
When I think about it, there's certainly a lot of fun to be had in this second life.
Everything's positive.
Seeing the changes in the world, meeting people, training magic, and doing things I couldn't do in my time.
It's the peace we brought, no one will complain if I enjoy it.
That's right, for the time being. With Kuro's care let's restore this body's condition, and then visit their graves first.
Let's do that.

"Well, for example, the young man who was so hateful before is now just as lovable as a child, or the young man who used to look down on me and irritate me inwardly, but now he's so adorable that he can't even move around without me holding him, as for the rest--"
"Wow! Those all are benifits to you! Don't make me a object of your wayward motherhood, just because I nowhere to go!"
"Kukkuku, it's also a merit to have a teasing atmosphere. -Then, I'll go prepare some food, so just relax in bed for a while, okay?."
While saying that, Kuro gave me a grin of Triumph as she looked at my face that was lit by my anger, and walked out the door without saying anything.
