Hearing Uncle's reason for choosing to become an online video creator, Takaoka Keigo, standing nearby, was somewhat surprised.
Although Uncle was already thirty-four, having spent seventeen years in the New World had left him not only lacking in common sense, but even somewhat childish...
That was why Takaoka Keigo had been worried that Uncle would be rather careless when choosing a job, or even use magic to do something illegal.
But now, it seemed his previous worries had clearly been unnecessary. Uncle was far more mature than he had imagined, and he considered things much more carefully as well.
"Well, it was probably because of Yoru Machi. When I first arrived in the New World, I was a complete rookie. After getting knocked around again and again, I finally understood just how dangerous society could be."
As Shimada Yousuke spoke, he showed Takaoka Keigo several recordings from when he had first arrived in the New World.
He had started out by being beaten up as a half-beastman, then sold for three Copper Coins because he could not pay a bill. Later, he had helped a village suffering from a water shortage and nearly been burned to death, and after saving a pair of siblings, he had been pushed off a cliff.
After watching those scenes, Takaoka Keigo, who had once yearned for life in another world, instantly became depressed.
He suddenly realized that novels and anime were all lies. Not every transmigrator who went to another world could become an overpowered winner in life, with beautiful women in both arms.
With an opening like Uncle's, Takaoka Keigo sincerely felt that it had been fucking hard for Uncle to make it back alive.
And there was a reason that handsome guy named Yoru Machi had become Uncle's closest friend.
