Chapter 130 - Chapter 130: The "Beginnings" of Natsuki Subaru

Before anyone in the various worlds could fully react, the light curtain lit up once more.

One Piece World—An Isolated Island

"The Secret of Three Sword Style: Three Thousand Worlds—Two-Strike Combo!"

"BOOM!!!"

A hilltop was instantly flattened by Zoro's attack, sending rubble tumbling down.

Luffy, who was eating barbecue below, got hit by a rock, a large bump instantly swelling on his head.

"Ouch! Zoro!!!" Luffy yelled, shaking his fists and teeth towards Zoro on the mountain.

"Hmph! Serves you right for being down there!" Zoro snorted coldly. He now felt his sword skills had improved significantly.

"Three Sword Style: Phoenix Slash!"

The sound of blades cutting through the air instantly generated a spatial current, accompanied by a sharp cry.

"BOOM!"

Another section of the hilltop was sliced off, and the rubble slid down rapidly...

Unsurprisingly, it hit Luffy on the head again. Just as Luffy was about to go berserk, Robin placed a piece of roasted meat in his mouth.

"Is it tasty?"

"Not bad!"

"Luffy! The light curtain is moving again!" Usopp pointed at the sky and exclaimed.

"Witch's Lover?" What's that?.....

Inuyasha World

"Is she a witch? She doesn't look human..."

Inuyasha twitched his dog nose and scratched his ears, a puzzled look on his face.

"Kagome, do you know about witches?"

"Of course I know, but witches often don't have a good fate. In some countries, they are often burned at the stake!" Kagome, dressed in her school uniform, said softly. After all, witches were sometimes sacrificed as scapegoats.....

Fate/Grand Order World (Chaldea)

Jeanne d'Arc stared dazedly at the word "witch," memories of her past surfacing.

She was supposed to be a saint but was condemned as a heretic by the religious authorities controlled by the powerful. She was eventually burned at the stake in a public execution....

"I hope the traveler in this world can have a good ending.".....

Witches across the various worlds began to worry about the witch in this world, not particularly concerned about Natsuki Subaru behind the scenes...

Re:Zero - Starting Life in Another World

Subaru's Original World

"Husband! Look at this; is it talking about Subaru?"

Subaru's mother covered her mouth, looking at the light curtain in the sky, tears continuously falling. The exceptionally strong-willed man suddenly looked up, and when he saw Natsuki Subaru's name, his body began to tremble.

"That boy... did he go to another world?..."

The man swallowed nervously, hoping this was their long-lost son.

They had been searching but had found no trace so far and had begun to fear he was dead.

Now, seeing his son's name on the light screen, even if he wasn't in this world, he still desperately hoped that Natsuki Subaru was alive!

"It must be him!".....

[The Screen Activates]

[Darkness envelops the world. A teenager is reading a comic in a convenience store...]

["I see... So this is the end..."]

[The boy looked out the window at a couple walking together, sighed deeply, and put the comic back in its place....]

[The teenager bought his items and walked out of the convenience store...]

[At that moment, the space suddenly distorted, but quickly returned to normal...]

[The young man looked around blankly, thinking he was mistaken, and raised his hand to rub his eyes....]

["After all, I stayed home all day and played games all night... My eyes must be tired too..."]

[When he opened his eyes again, the dimly lit street was gone. Instead, he saw all sorts of people coming and going....]

[But among these people were various beast-humans. The young man was utterly confused, not understanding what was happening....]

["What's going on?"]

[The young man stood helplessly in this strange world...]....

Konosuba World

"Brother, he didn't reincarnate after dying!"

Kazuma wiped away tears, looking at Natsuki Subaru with sympathy.

He didn't know why he felt sorry for him. Was it because of the tracksuit?

Maybe it was because they were from the same homeland.

Perhaps this was the feeling of meeting a fellow countryman—that sense of shared experience.

"Big brother, stay strong and survive! You must learn to conquer this other world."

Looking at the scene, Kazuma understood this was the same type of world as his.

It seemed even more prosperous than his starter town. This probably wasn't the beginner village...

Re:Zero World

"Subaru! You really are a dimension traveler!"

Rem looked in shock at the image of Natsuki Subaru lying motionless on the ground on the screen.

He had said before he wasn't from this world, but she hadn't fully believed it.

"Waaah, Rem, don't watch the next part! It's a bit bloody!"

Subaru's mentality collapsed. He buried his head under the quilt. It's over. I have no face left to show anyone.

His ability to Return by Death would be exposed!

And he had embarrassed all dimension travelers. He had no special abilities at all. What could he say? That he could just resurrect!...

[On Screen]

[Natsuki Subaru looked around at everything and finally realized he had been summoned to another world!]

["No way, is this really another world?"]

[Subaru walked down the street, getting more and more excited. This kind of plot, something you only encountered in games, could actually be real!]

[He came to a fruit stall; the writing on it was completely incomprehensible to him!]

[Subaru encountered obstacles everywhere he went. He grew increasingly flustered, and even his initial enthusiasm for arriving in another world faded considerably....]

[He was pushed into the water by a demi-human and sat passively in a dark alley, drying his tracksuit....]

["How does this fit the protagonist's setting?"]

[Subaru complained frantically. This start was too miserable—no equipment, only the food he bought from the convenience store!]

[At that moment, three thugs passing by decided to rob Subaru, threatened him with weapons, and beat him severely....]....

"Isn't this starting off a bit too miserably?..."

"For an ordinary person, it's understandable, but being threatened with weapons is..."

"At least Kazuma had a beginner's guide..."

"Not to mention Seiya; his stats were several times higher than an ordinary person's!"

When Kazuma saw this scene, he was so angry he wanted to chop those three thugs to pieces!

Konosuba World

"Kazuma, don't be impulsive!"

Everyone hurriedly held him back, afraid he might pick a fight with the light curtain's owner. What if he made the light curtain's owner unhappy and got smacked to bits! He might not even be resurrectable then!

Re:Zero World

"Rem, wait! Don't be impulsive!"

Natsuki Subaru quickly grabbed Rem, who was trying to run off, afraid she would impulsively go kill those three men.

"Subaru! I'm going to kill those people!"

Rem's demon horn instantly emerged, a clear sign she was extremely enraged...

[On Screen]

[Subaru, being beaten by the group, protected his head...]

[Suddenly, a voice sounded behind them...]

["Stop! That's enough!"]

[The thugs turned to look...]

[A girl with waist-length silver hair, amethyst eyes, and wearing a noble dress was staring at them....]

[The thugs shouted displeased, "What do you want?"]

["I can still let you go now!"]

["So honestly return what you stole from me!"]

[The girl's clear voice was as beautiful as a lark's, yet carried a hint of strength...]

["Stole something?"]

[The thugs were stunned by her words. They didn't know what they had stolen....]

[Realizing the thugs weren't the people the girl was looking for, she prepared to leave...]

[But the girl couldn't just abandon the bullied boy. She chose to save him and heal his injuries...]

[This was their first encounter...]....

Re:Zero World

"Rem, was I a bit embarrassing back then?..."

Subaru scratched his head awkwardly. After all, his state when he first arrived in this world was pretty pathetic.

Even now, his situation is still quite miserable.

"No! Subaru is the most handsome!"

As Rem said this, little stars seemed to twinkle in her eyes...

[On Screen]

[The proud girl firmly stated that she wasn't waiting for Subaru to wake up because of him....]

["Next time, don't walk alone in the alley. This isn't concern, just advice...."]

[The girl kept speaking words to prevent the boy from feeling indebted, until she turned to leave...]

[The giant cat spirit glanced calmly at Subaru and said apologetically, "Sorry, my lady isn't very honest...."]

[Subaru looked at the girl. This wasn't just 'not very honest,' she was too kind. As if something in his heart was touched, he immediately chased after her....]

[And said he would help her find the stolen item...]

[The girl agreed to Subaru's request for help...]

[The two chatted and searched, eventually finding the loli girl Subaru had met before....]

[But the item wasn't on her. They continued until Subaru entered a dirty room...]

[The dark, damp loot storeroom was filled with a corrupt stench...]

[Subaru had only taken a few steps when he stopped, as if he had stepped on something sticky....]

[In the light, he saw blood on the ground under his feet, and a severed arm....]

[Subaru looked at the scene in horror. The light shone further into the distance. The mutilated body of an old man leaned quietly against the wall....]

[Subaru suddenly felt nauseous. His mind was overwhelmed with fear, and he breathed heavily....]

["Discovered... Well, nothing to be done about it..."]

[A woman's teasing voice came from behind Subaru....]

[Before he could turn his head, he was struck hard and sent flying instantly. He tumbled several times before hitting the ground heavily....]

["So hot..."]

[Subaru felt a burning sensation and saw through the moonlight that his abdomen had been slashed open, blood gushing out....]

["Not good... Is this my blood?"]

["Not good... Really not good..."]

[He lay helplessly on the ground, feeling his life rapidly fading away....]

[At that moment, the girl opened the door and walked in, asking, "Subaru, what's wrong?"]

["Don't come... Run... quickly... run..."]

[The next second...]

[The girl was mercilessly killed by the woman and fell heavily to the ground....]

[Under the moonlight, Subaru looked at the girl lying beside him. With all his remaining strength, his blood-stained hand trembled as it clenched onto her snow-white one....]

["Wait for me..."]

["I will definitely save you!!!"]

[In Subaru's low, unwilling roar, his life came to an end...]
