Chapter 7:

Beyond the boundaries of World

Love Beyond The Closet Door


After went through the cracked in space, I found myself back in my old cheap-rented apartment, everything before i got sucked into Lady Alicia world.

Eh that feel weird, now that I think about it, Let's alone Lady Alicia world name, I don't even know the name of continent at all, the only thing i learn about geography is only Lothian Empire, and not surrounding country at all.

Oh well, not like i even dare to ask about stuff they taught me like why Lady Alicia training me in such way (Physical Beating)

Since Lady Alicia are proficient in both Magic and Swordsmanship, I wonder if i can learn how to use magic too, that would be cool.

*SFX (I don't know the sound of enter and exit the portal/cracked in space or whatever, so yeah just SFX think whatever the sound you want even ding dang dong)

“It's seem like the passage are already stabilized, unless one destroy it. It should stay like that for while.”

While i stood daze in middle of my own room forget even the joy of return home (not like there any)

It's seem like lady Alicia after see that I'm fine after the space, follow soon after.

“This place feel so cramped and dirty, it's bigger than servant room and look better with good ventilation but there is some weird smell in air”

“Ah!! Sorry Milady, I will immediately try to fix it"

No longer need clutchs any longer like in past, it sure feel weird to navigate the room like this, but since I cleaned the room before got sucked into my own wardrobe…It probably due sometime passed right?

I went to opened the window, then go get cleaning supply in balcony.

“No, there no need for that, we don't have a lot of time to waste on such thing, just open the window is enough”

Before I grab the broom, Alicia order me to stand down before lightly cast wind spell to push out all unpleasant odor in room, and it seem like she even manipulates the temperature of room with water magic.

While Alicia who still look around my apartment.

I went to check if my phone still in same location I placed it before.

‘If I remember correctly, I should had placed them on bed right?’

I went to my bed and found my phone immediately.

I picked it up, try to open screen, and it turn out only 34% of battery is gone from last time i remembered with only 12% battery.

I checked the date and surprised to find that only 1 week has passed in my world.

‘Since I stayed there for about almost 4 month…roughly around 2920 hours

And since it not full week but still have half day left, I can just roughly sum it up as 168 hours, which mean 1 day in this world is roughly equal 16-18 days in another world?’

Ah! I need to report this to Lady Alicia!

“Hmm, there a lot weird stuff in here, and I can't even remotely guess what are they, is that black screen made of glass? What the point of that? Is it artwork in this world?”

Alicia still curiously stare at surrounding, currently focus on mid-size old LCD TV of mine.

“Lady Alicia! I find something you need to see miss!”

My phone still in hand, I hurry run toward her who just been standing still this entire time.

Alicia turn her head toward Yuuma who try approach her.

“What's it?”

“Ah! I have discovered that the time difference between this world and other world is about 17 times!, 1 day in this is equal to 17 days in your world milady!”

Alicia face frown slightly and mutter under her breath

“Is that so…so I only got 2 days of break at best…”

“I see, then we have no time to waste then, Let's go outside here, I don't know much about this world, so just go wherever you want.

And since this is world different from mine, I don't have any money in this world, Does this one can be exchange for money?”

Alicia, out of nowhere pull out 1 chunk of shiny gold bar from her handbag.

T-too Dazzling!!? Is this the power of riches!!!?

Me who suddenly see the gold bar for first time in real life collapsed to ground with eyes brim with tears.

Alicia who suddenly saw me collapse look at me with cold glare.

“What are you doing suddenly collapsed there? Get up and do guide me already”

Feeling disparity between our perspective. I mindlessly get up and ask her with deflated tone.

“Is there any place you would like to go Lady Alicia? Like food, tourist attraction or store?”

“Place hmm? Then guide me to where I can exchange the gold for your country currency first i can decide the rest decided afterward”

“Yes! Ah but it would be hard to exchange gold here, there likely try to scam miss.”

I said worried about her not about being scammed since she likely will notice it if she met one directly but what happened after they try scam her.

It's not really hard to expect what she will do with her personality…

“You don't need to worry about that, you explain to me about security camera before when I asked you about your world before right? And since this world don't have magic, I can barely even feel mana here compared to mine world, so that statement should still hold true.

As long no one notice it, it's doesn't really matter isn't?”

‘Ah, so she still will get rid of them just not openly huh? Oh scammer and others countless peoples with bad intention, please stay away from this lady unless you want to cross river to otherside at speed of Shinkansen.’

I offered my prayer in silence and now it got nothing to do with me, if they want to die.

“There's nothing else right? Then lead the way”

I sigh, I went to get portable charger, put the phone on charge through cable, and grab my old bag in corner put the stuff there ready to go.

It's been while…since I went out.

Let's have fun I guess?

*******************************

“What are you talking about miss? This is clearly fake gold! How can someone young like you can possibly have such huge chunk of gold bar!”

The bald man with trademark being his scar on his thick eyebrow and well-taken cared of mustache arrogantly smirk.

“But since I'm such generous heart man, I willing to offer up 10,000 yen nothing more nothing less, just take it!”

The man tried to took the gold bar from Alicia hand but it didn't bulge at all.

He angrily try to use more strength with both hand but the gold bar still doesn't show sight of bulge even by 1 millimeter.

“You brat! Release you grip already! You dare to mock my generosity to even offer such pay even though this is just fake gold bar!?”

The man yelled at Lady Alicia angrily, I can't hold myself after watch such disgusting action anymore, but lady alicia raised her free hand to stop me.

She then yank the gold bar back cause old man to collapse toward Lady Alicia, but before he could she punch his face, her fist covered slightly by blue mana but not exactly noticeable crashed against his face cause him to smash against the glass showcase behind him.

*CRASHED!!!

“A-ahhhhhh My Nose!!!? Gahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!?”

The man gonna have to endure have his nose broken and his destroyed for quite a while.

Despite cause such scene there not a single drop of blood on her cloth nor her fist.

“Now then Yuuma, show me the others location you know, But make sure to pick that unlike this worthless place”

“Won't he die soon like that? and aftermath…”

“Just ignore them”

“Ah, yes…”

She quickly shot down my concern with slightly raised smile on her face.

‘Umm, Milady didn't you said, you won't do it directly? Eh…whatever I don't know anymore, follow milady decision is my role as her personal servant and butler’

*******************************

“Damn those brats!!! How they dare to hurt me!! I ain't gonna let you go!!”

‘It's bit embarrassing but I have to call big bro for help!!’

‘Damm that bitch I will definitely get you and brought you into regret in bed!!’

The bald man anger cannot be subdue but before he can even do what he plan to do.

*Thud

‘H-huh? Why…I'm down here, my sense, I can't feel my legs?’

“Ga-haaakkkkk!!!”

He cough out large amount of blood, then immediately afterward all blood started to pour out from pores of his skin, eyes and nose.

W-what…ha-pp--en ga- I need-— to call….

Despite pain from all over his body the man can't move at all to contract someone he tried to. Before he end up died meaninglessly like a fool.

*******************************

“Serve him right isn't Yuuma?”

Alicia lip curled into light smile, while the sight is incredibly breathtaking but the meaning of her word is unclear.

“Eh…what? What do you mean Milady?”

“Nothing. Move your legs faster and show me the way already”

“Ah! Yes!!”

I still don't know why her attitude feel somewhat different from the usual. But even so nothing will change the fact that, I still will serve her with all my heart.
