I, Who Got Transported to Another World with the Strongest Cheat, Quit the Knight and Went on a Jour

“So-Sorry. I need to go, there’s something I need to do.”

I got up from my seat and left the place. 

I just can’t sit still. 

“Ah! Hey!”

Ignoring Alaine’s confused yell, I continued on my way. I left the adventurers’ guild and walked to the main street. I continued to walk and walk, mindlessly. 

I don’t understand. 

I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. I don’t understand. 

I don’t understand. 

I was in an endless cycle of confusion. I continued on walking mindlessly just like that. 

Thud. 

My body hit something. 

“Ah…..”

I bumped into someone. I lost my balance but somehow, I was able to hold myself back from falling on the ground. 

“Ah, Zero-san! I’m sorry for bumping into you!”

The person I had carelessly bumped against, bowed his head apologetically at me. 

“Ah, no. I─────”

I ignored the words that were being thrown at me. Slightly drifting away from the main street, I continued walking until I reached the slum. 

Just for a little bit… I want to go somewhere quiet. I need to cool my head down. 

“Ah….”

I walked mindlessly and arrived at a deserted stall. They only served nothing but a simple soup there. There wasn’t any ingredient in sight and the color of the soup was really pale too. 

“Uncle, one soup….”

I said to the muscular man tending to the stall. 

“You got money?”

“Here it is.”

I gave him the money needed for the soup as displayed on the stall and received a bowl of soup in return. Slightly walking away from the stall, I froze in front of the soup. 

“Haah…. Haah…. Haah….”

I need to make sure I can really taste it. Other than discomfort. Is my taste bud already cured…?

………

………………….

I’m scared. I’m scared to eat it. But could it be….

“Thank you for the food.”

But if I don’t eat it, nothing will change. 

I took the soup into my mouth. 

“Aah….”

A voice of admiration passed through my lips. The warmth spreaded all over my body and even through my heart. 

“Delicious….”

I could feel something hot running down my cheeks.
