The One Who Summoned You Here

"You can just call me Satella."

When those words came from the mouth of that beautiful silver-haired girl, even Subaru Natsuki, who was clueless about reading people, clearly sensed it.

At this moment, an unprecedented sense of distance and unfamiliarity emanated from the silver-haired girl who called herself Satella, affecting the surrounding air and making the atmosphere somewhat stiff.

There was no doubt that it created an atmosphere that kept others at bay.

Although Subaru Natsuki didn't know what the name ' Satella ' meant, he could still tell that the other person was extremely unwilling to say it.

But the other party still gave this name.

Subaru Natsuki had no idea what the significance was.

However, Subaru Natsuki did not want to be rejected like this.

So, Subaru Natsuki deliberately chuckled and started speaking.

"What a nice name! It reminds me of a cat I used to have at home, whose name was—Woo-hoo!"

Before he could finish speaking, a foot stomped hard on Subaru Natsuki's back, almost stomping him out of his Subaru Natsuki and making him swallow the rest of his words.

Fang Li stomped hard on Subaru Natsuki, seemingly ignoring the rustic-looking boy lying on the ground, shrugged, and said this.

"Having a name is already a good thing. Some people don't even get to have a name; in the end, someone else gives it to them."

After saying that, Fang Li turned around and continued walking forward.

All that remained was Subaru Natsuki, who was lying on the ground groaning, and the silver-haired girl who looked somewhat dazed, but whose eyes later showed a hint of guilt.

There are indeed many nameless people in this world.

For example, some impoverished people living in poverty, or orphans.

Compared to those who don't even have names, it's definitely a good thing that the girl has a name.

However, the name is fake.

The girl felt a pang of guilt when she thought of those who struggled to survive without even a name, and when she thought of herself, who clearly had a name but deliberately gave a false one so as not to be associated with others.

Perhaps this is because the girl is an overly kind person?

"Hey, Parker," the girl looked at the gray kitten beside her with a pleading expression, "Did I do something really awful?"

"Well, I can understand how you feel." The gray kitten, whom the girl called Parker, scratched its head, shrugged, and said, "However, using this name is a bit wicked, Ria."

Ria.

This is the girl's real name.

It was simply Parker's pet name for the girl.

The girl's real name is Emilia.

Therefore, Parker called her Ria.

As for Satella, that is a taboo name.

A name so taboo that it was forbidden to mention, and everyone considered it taboo.

Given that, Emilia's choice of such a name does indeed seem rather morbid.

Thinking of this, Emilia couldn't help but whisper.

"It seems I'll have to find an opportunity to apologize to him later."

With those words, Emilia immediately took a step and hurriedly tried to catch up.

As a result, he stomped hard on a corpse lying on the ground.

"Ooh!"

The boy's wails echoed throughout the room.

"I'm... I'm sorry!"

The girl's flustered voice rang out as well.

Hearing the commotion behind him, Fang Li, who was walking in front, couldn't help but chuckle.

"The days ahead will probably not be boring."

This area is just one street away from the main street of the Royal Capital.

However, compared to the hustle and bustle of the Royal Capital, this place presents a completely different scene.

There were no rows of medieval buildings around, only extremely simple and dilapidated houses.

The ground was not paved with any stone bricks, only a dirt road exposed to the air.

As for the air, it felt rather murky, devoid of any of the hustle and bustle of the outside world, only the quiet that made one wonder if it was some poor, rural area.

And this place is a slum.

When Fang Li, Subaru Natsuki, and Emilia arrived here, the residents of the surrounding dilapidated houses, all dressed in similarly worn clothes, subtly cast their gazes at them.

Feeling the gazes from all around him, Subaru Natsuki crossed his arms and said thoughtfully, "I feel like the people around me are looking at me with a very friendly gaze. Why is that?"

That's true.

Subaru Natsuki was dressed in a plain-looking tracksuit, looking nothing like a rich kid. Instead, he resembled a resident of a slum, so the people around him didn't seem to be hostile towards him.

Emilia's attire clearly indicated that she belonged to a noble person, leading the surrounding poor to mistake her for a noblewoman, and thus casting wary glances at her.

From this perspective, we can understand just how much disparity in treatment has resulted from the wealth gap.

As for Fang Li, he was met only with some puzzled looks.

Because Fang Li's casual clothes, though strange, didn't look as rustic as Subaru Natsuki Subaru's. He didn't seem like a rich kid, nor did he look like a resident of the slums, so the surrounding poor people continued to speculate about his identity.

Under these circumstances, only the gaze directed at Subaru Natsuki was very gentle, which made Subaru Natsuki wonder about this.

So, Fang Li casually said this.

"Perhaps the person who summoned you here is inside. Why don't you go and look for them?"

Upon hearing this, Subaru Natsuki was taken aback and looked around, taking in everyone around him.

There was a middle-aged man with fierce eyes.

There was a little devil with a runny nose.

There were young men carrying hoes.

An overweight middle-aged woman.

These people kept casting affectionate glances at Subaru Natsuki, and coupled with Fang Li's words, the thought that he had been summoned to this Other World by such people made Subaru Natsuki feel a surge of emotions, and he almost vomited up his dinner from the night before.

At that moment, Subaru Natsuki quickly turned his head and glanced at Emilia.

Her long silver hair fluttered in the wind.

A pair of purple-pink eyes shone brightly.

Her pure and holy aura is captivating.

Her exquisite and pretty face is irresistibly charming.

"Um?"

Emilia seemed to sense Subaru Natsuki's gaze, tilted her head, and looked somewhat confused.

However, this incredibly cute gesture immediately captured Subaru Natsuki's heart.

"Ah..."

Subaru Natsuki let out a meaningless groan.

"I've been healed..."

Everyone was speechless.

Parker went so far as to say just that.

"Please don't come with us."

After all, it's too embarrassing.
