Anime, starting from Re:Zero (Zero - Starting Life)

But more of it was the appearance she was familiar with: the giant tortoise shell buildings, the rarely changing building distribution, the same fields and crops as before, and even the figures she noticed from afar were almost all those she had known in the past.

But something important seems to have changed.

There was an atmosphere that should be extremely normal, but seemed out of place here. Luo Qixi vaguely sensed it but couldn't grasp it.

"thunderbolt--"

"Clap-"

After entering the village, Luo Qixi immediately felt a slight discomfort as if she had been hit on the head. She knew very well that this was the telepathy of the Migrud people, an important and special racial talent, something she did not possess.

That's why she looked for various reasons to convince herself to run away from home and escape from this place where she felt like an alien.

Loki lifted the brim of her hat and looked in the direction where the telepathic voice came from. They were two compatriots she had known in the past. They were looking at her with gentle smiles. Loki didn't know what they had just said, nor did she have the ability to communicate with them through telepathy.

But she knew what to do.

Of course she knew what to do at this time.

Luo Qixi raised her hand and waved to them friendly, showing a nostalgic smile of reunion after a long separation.

After looking at each other, they waved their hands, smiled even more, and started talking about something again.

However, Luo Qixi did not feel excluded. She just silently pointed in the direction of her home, made an apologetic expression, and waved goodbye.

She once wrote in a letter to Gawain:

"At first, I was worried about how I would face everyone in the village after returning home."

"After all, I am a special case who cannot communicate with everyone."

"But I've figured it out."

"Didn't I learn this during my travels? Even if we don't speak the same language, even if we can't speak, our gestures and expressions can connect our hearts."

“This is important knowledge I want to share with you.”

“As long as we muster the courage to take a step forward and master the appropriate methods, people can understand each other.”

Yes, I don’t have to run away anymore.

As Luo Qixi thought about this, she felt that the dry and hot wind blowing on her cheeks became fresh and comfortable, and her steps became cheerful and happy.

She greeted the compatriots she met along the way, first waving, then smiling, and finally even greeting them in Demonic and Human languages ​​without any hesitation.

It doesn't matter whether they understand or not, right?

Tone of voice can also convey feelings!

Even the Migrud children would laugh, right?

Then, Luo Qixi noticed a familiar woman whose name she didn't know, walking towards her with several children, laughing and joking. She was about to step aside to make way for them, but the woman suddenly raised her head, looked at her with a look of surprise, and spoke fluently in the language of the demon god:

"Luo Qixi? You're finally back!"

Luo Qixi looked bewildered and confused: "Huh?"

The children with different hairstyles were also surprised when they heard the word. They jumped up and surrounded Luo Qixi. A little girl tugged at her clothes, raised her head and asked curiously in the stuttering Demon Language:

"Sister... is that... Luo Qixima?"

The two little boys cheered:

"Lokishi! Lokishi! Lokishi!"

Luo Qixi was even more confused: "Huh?"

The adult woman came over and pulled the children apart, just like a teacher. She gave Luo Qixi an apologetic smile:

"I'm sorry, Luo Qixi, they're a little too lively. You must still be confused, right? I have to take them to their next class now, so it's not convenient to discuss this with you in detail. Anyway, you should go home first and you'll understand."

Luo Qixi numbly gave way, just as she had wanted to do at the beginning.

"Eh hey?"

What the hell is this?

Why do I feel strangely familiar and uncomfortable?

The children and the woman who seemed to be a teacher waved goodbye to her.

Luo Qixi also waved numbly.

When did the village have teachers?

Why does everyone know who I am?

It’s not surprising that they know who I am, but why do even newly born children know me?

Was I the worst example of a negative example in the village because I ran away? That's why I was hung on the pillar of shame and repeatedly lectured? Were the kids so nice to me because they were rebellious?

Was the position of teacher established to prevent what happened to me from happening again?

Just thinking about these.

Luo Qixi's face turned very sour.

I almost want to die.

Or I might as well just run away instead of going home. At worst, I can just stay in isolation in Licalis City for a month to relax.

Luo Qixi pulled down the brim of her hat and lowered her head, feeling that the usual dead silence in the village was actually a kind of torture for herself.

This place is indeed a den of dragons and tigers...

(face covered in cold sweat.jpg)

and many more!

Luo Qixi suddenly noticed the key point.

"How did she know I would come back?"

At the speed I was moving, even if I rode as fast as I could, there was no way the news of my return home would arrive earlier.

After regaining consciousness, Luo Qixi immediately packed her luggage and trotted towards home.

She hurriedly lifted the curtain.

I didn't even have time to worry about whether my parents were safe.

I saw an empty room that was completely different from before. Not only were there tables, chairs, and coffee tables, but there was even a small kitchen. The innermost room was separated by curtains, and in the room, I could see a bed frame covered with a normal cooling mat and pillows.

Luo Qixi: “?”

She retreated silently and lowered the curtain.

Luo Qixi breathed a sigh of relief and said with peace of mind:

"Luckily it was just a dream. I was so scared. I was wondering how the village and my home could have become like this."

At this time, a familiar hand patted her shoulder. Luo Qixi turned around and saw her mother, whom she had not seen for many years, standing behind her.

There was a worried yet happy expression on my mother's face:

"Luo Qixi! You are finally back!"

My mother rushed over and hugged me.

There is a sense of touch, could it be...isn't this a dream?

My mother's nostalgic and gentle voice rang in my ears again:

"Welcome home, Lokishi!"

"It's much later than Gawain told us. It's really worrying! Give me some of the luggage. I'll call Dad home right now."

Luo Qixi opened her mouth wide, she never expected to hear this name:

"Gawain?"

It seems like a dream.

Chapter 36 Reunion

By the time Luo Qixi had fully come to her senses.

She was already sitting in front of the coffee table, and her mother was making tea with a tea set in the style of the Kingdom of Asura...well, made in Asura.

"Come, have some tea to hydrate yourself! You must be thirsty after all this walk, right?"

A familiar teacup appeared before her eyes, placed on a familiar tea table, wafting with the familiar aroma of tea. Luo Qixi numbly and skillfully picked up the tea tray, blew on it, and then took a sip. Wow, the same familiar taste.

But, Mom, I flew back, okay?

But my mother came to her senses and slammed her hands:

"Sorry, Luo Qixi, I almost forgot, did you fly back?"

Luo Qixi almost spit out her tea.

When did the Migruds develop the ability to read minds or predict the future? Are my genes that bad?

At this moment, hurried footsteps approached, the curtain was lifted, and a familiar voice called out loudly:

"Luo Qixi? Is Luo Qixi back?"

It’s dad.

Luo Qixi held the tea tray and looked up at the door curtain, and met the eyes of her father, whom she had not seen for many years. She was about to say hello when she saw that the weapon at her father's waist had been replaced with an iron sword of a very familiar style.

The same tables, chairs and tea tables as in the open-air classroom.

The same tea set as Gao Wen’s family.

The tea I drink most often during class.

There is even the same knight sword that Gawain received.

Luo Qixi realized the truth.

It turns out that this world is just a huge Buena Village.

No, no! Or rather, that was the birthday present Mr. Paul had given to Gawain. He'd been taught not to give away gifts given to him, hadn't he?

Loki put down the cup.

She lowered her head heavily and let out a desperate groan.

Why on earth did it take me so long to travel across three continents to return home? Is this your punishment, Gawain, for insisting on saying goodbye?

Feeling that something was not right with Luo Qixi, her parents immediately surrounded her, took her hand with concern, asked her how she was doing, and hugged her to comfort and protect her. Feeling the familiar warmth that she had not felt for many years and that she had resisted and longed for, Luo Qixi finally calmed down again.

That’s why.

I set out on my journey home and came back here in order to reunite with my parents and apologize to them.

Luo Qixi shed tears uncontrollably.

Finally we meet again...

I'm so glad you're still healthy...

"sorry Sorry sorry."

Luo Qixi hugged her parents and burst into tears.

"Mom, I'm sorry..."

"Dad, I'm sorry..."

Luo Qixi sobbed and apologized desperately.

"I'm sorry for leaving without saying goodbye... I'm sorry for making you worry... I'm also sorry for taking so many years to figure this out..."

Lokali also couldn't help but burst into tears. She hugged her daughter tightly. Even though she had known that she was safe and that she would come back, she still couldn't control the surging emotions in her heart.

Even Luo Yin shed tears and hugged his wife and daughter tightly, and his handsome and cold face became ugly.

The family didn't sit down until the tea had completely cooled down.
