Gate to the Old World
Today, I was deeply immersed in advanced magic research. My goal was simple, yet far from easy—to find a way back to my original world. Specifically, Earth.
“Oi, Ai-chan,” I called out, gazing at the floating magic crystal. “If I use space-time magic... is it possible for me to return to my original world?”
A sharp but cute voice replied, “Do you really want to go back there, Avrora?”
“I don’t plan to stay. There’s just something I need to do.”
“Alright... I’ll try matching the coordinates of your home world. But the chance of success is only twenty percent.”
“Seriously?! Still, I believe in you, Ai-chan!”
“Hehe... leave it to me!”

[Beginning interdimensional data collection]
[Searching for coordinates: Earth]
[Failed… Failed… Failed…]Failure messages flashed one after another. It seemed hopeless.
[Exchanging skill: World Knowledge — Search efficiency increased]
[Coordinates of Earth found]
[New skill obtained: Knowledge of Multiple Worlds]“I found it, Avrora,” Ai-chan said, her voice sounding more serious than usual.
“EHHH?! After so many failures, it worked?! You’re amazing, Ai-chan!”
“But... to reach it, we’ll have to break the laws of nature once more. Are you prepared to face the System again, like last time?”
I looked at the crystal with determination.
“As long as you’re with me, Ai-chan, I’m not afraid. Just like before—you’re my weapon.”
“Heh~ So confident. Alright then, let’s do this.”
◇
With Ai-chan’s power, we challenged the System once more. Working together, we broke through its defenses and created a portal to Earth.
“Yosh! Great job, Ai-chan! So, can we go to Earth now?”
“Of course. But—” Ai-chan sighed, “It’s a long way and requires a huge amount of energy. And on Earth, there’s no mana. You’ll become an ordinary human until your magic recharges.”
“That’s fine. Earth is peaceful. I won’t need magic there anyway.”
“...Alright. If that’s your decision.”
◇
I stepped into the portal. My body was flung into the air and—
“Owwww…” I groaned, slowly getting up from the asphalt road.
Looking around, my eyes widened.
“Waaa… It’s real?! Japan?! I’m really back!”
Ai-chan’s voice echoed in my mind, “So this is your original world… I’ve only seen it through your memories.”
“Yeah… Thank you, Ai-chan.”
“So, where to now?”
I scratched my head. “First… I need a place to stay. But… crap. I forgot! I don’t have any money here!”
“How about going back to your old home?”
“Impossible… They won’t recognize me. I can’t exactly say I’m Yuu. After all, Yuu… is already dead in this world.”
