sation.

“Good evening.”

The first person to enter is Nathan-ojisan.
Now it’s time for a pleasant dinner.

“Alesia-chan, I heard you bought Ethan clothes today.
I will pay.”

“Ara, really?”

My mother and Oba-san are both staring at me.

When I look at Ethan, he gives me a small nod, as if to say, [don’t worry].
I see he didn’t mention the library to them.
I’m sorry he had to go through all of that.
But first, I’m going to tell them about it.

“I bought Ethan’s clothes and went to the library wearing the clothes we bought.
So I’d like to visit the library from time to time.
It is expensive, so I will work harder to pay for it—may I go?”

The four adults are taken aback.
They’re probably wondering what a child who can’t read is doing in a library.

“I’d like to learn.”

“That’s all right.”

My father said it immediately.
I didn’t think he’d agree to it without asking.

“I-Is it all right?”

“Yes, it’s fine.
The farm is doing well, and we’re eating well.
We’re saving a little money.
Don’t be concerned about library fees.
Alesia can learn if she wants to.
But you can’t read, can you?”

I was expecting this question.

“There are books for children in the library—I’ll read and study them first.
There are also a plethora of picture books.
So everything is fine.
Thank you for allowing me to visit the library, Oto-san!”

Oh, what a good parent I deserve.

Ethan, who had been quietly listening, stood up.

“What’s wrong? You want another slice?”

“Ethan, we’re in the middle of a meal.
Sit down.”

Ojisan and Oba-san call out to him, but he remains motionless and stares at me.
Ara?

“I want to go to the library too, so I can learn how to read with Alesia!”

Arara.
Why are you staring at me while pleading with your parents? Your cheeks are puffy.
Is it his character? Is it so frustrating that you’re the only one who can’t read? Ethan, you’re too cute!

“All right, Ethan.
You’re always working hard on the farm.”

Benita-obaasan smiled and agreed.

Since the day I opened my memory box, I have been thinking about [why I was born with the memories of my previous life].

The war in my previous life took so many lives, but I didn’t go to hell, and I’m happy to start over.
But what is the reason for this?

…There must be a reason.

Maybe the reason I was born with memories is to teach me to make the right decision this time.
That’s what I think it means.
No, I’ve decided to do so on my own terms.

This time, I don’t want to make mistakes.
I don’t want to live in a way that I will come to regret.
I want to live a life that will benefit others.

That’s why I’m going to the library to research magic, even if it’s only a hint.
I want to do something about the unintentional rain.
