A trip to the second dimension

"In other words, the reason why our world is like this now is because those big monsters are doing it secretly?"

After listening to Hope's narration to them, Dororo sat cross-legged by the fire and fell into deep thought like a little adult.

"Oh~ I just said that something always feels wrong. Is this really the reason for the situation?"

Dororo's ears moved, and he suddenly heard the old voice coming from beside him. He couldn't help but turned to look at the blind monk beside him speechlessly: "Hey, monk! Who are you!"

It's been several hours since the Bandai Demon was dealt with.

Obviously they couldn't stay in that small village any longer, so the three of them left the village together. After traveling for a while, they found an open space to sit down, light a fire, rest, and have lunch.

As a result, the old monk carrying a pipa ran over from nowhere and sat next to them with a familiar look.

After hearing Dororo's question, Biwamaru laughed twice, and then explained: "Let me introduce you. My name is Biwamaru, and I can be considered a ronin. I met a monster on the road and was entrusted by it. , I originally planned to come over to see the situation in that village, but I didn’t expect that you had already solved it in advance.”

Biwamaru shook his head as he spoke.

In fact, I hope they have seen the monster that the old monk talked about.

Just after Hyakkimaru killed Bandai, a monster monk with an unusually big head and a bell shaking in his hand appeared.

Under its leadership, Hope and others also found some buried money.

All this money was left behind by travelers who were killed after passing through Bandai's village.

The first of these was the money of that little monk Jin.

It can also be regarded as the first traveler eaten by Bandai who came to this village.

As a result, after Jin Xiaoseng died, he turned into a monster and led people everywhere to get rid of Wandai.

After it was done, I wanted to give the money to them as gifts.

Although I hoped that the money would not be short, I finally collected them so that they could be used by Dororo and the others in the future.

It is worth mentioning that in Japanese culture, not just monsters are evil.

Demons are just a species, just like humans.

There are also good and bad aspects.

Some good monsters, such as Zashiki Warashi, can even guarantee good luck for a family. At most, he's just a little naughty.

Even monsters such as the well-known Kappa are some kind and some are cruel.

"So that's it? It's just a coincidence."

After hearing Biwamaru's self-introduction, Dororo nodded, and looked at Hyakkimaru with a headache, who was stroking various objects next to him.

Because he had defeated the Bandai Demon before, Hyakkimaru regained his lost nerve network from it, and now he has regained his body's touch and pain sensation.

The first time he experienced this feeling, Hyakkimaru was constantly rubbing various things with his face.

After all, his hands are still just fake hands. If you want to feel the touch, you still need real parts of his body.

For example, his face, or the first right foot he took back.

"Okay, the water is boiling, we can cook noodles."

Hope looked at the boiling water in the pot in front of her and mentioned this casually, attracting the attention of both Dororo and Biwamaru.

In this day and age, no matter what, filling your stomach is not as important as filling your stomach.

Fortunately, following hope, starvation will never happen.

Even if time permits, you can still eat well.

Today’s lunch is also relatively simple, just instant noodles.

I hope I haven't eaten this for a while, and suddenly I wanted to eat it, so I chose this for lunch.

At the same time, of course, the green vegetables, ham sausage and eggs cannot be left out.

Moreover, the speed at which a pot of instant noodles is cooked is also very fast, so everyone will not be kept waiting for too long.

As various seasonings from the instant noodles were added to the pot, the tangy aroma immediately made Dororo and Biwamaru beside him unable to sit still.

Dororo jumped up immediately, and some monkeys circled around Hope anxiously.

The old monk Biwamaru also supported his crutches with both hands and pointed his head in the direction of the soup pot: "This smells really fragrant. This is the first time in this old man's life that he has smelled such delicious food."

"That's right! Hehe! Our little brother is awesome! Yesterday's grilled fish was also delicious! Monk, you are in for a treat today."

Hearing Biwamaru's praise, Dororo proudly put his hands on his hips as if he was the one being praised, with a proud look on his face.

"You can eat more if you like, I still have plenty here."

Hope stirred the noodles in the pot and said this with a smile.

Seeing that it was almost done, he filled a large bowl and handed it to Biwawan.

"Oh~ Thank you so much, little brother. It's just our first time meeting you, but you invited me to eat such a rare delicacy in the world."

Although Biwamaru was blind, he still reached out and took the large bowl that Nozomi handed over accurately.

Nozomi smiled, said nothing, and served a bowl to Dororo who was beside him impatiently. Then there was Hyakkimaru who was rubbing his face against the ground.

Hyakkimaru, whose face was covered with dirt, took the noodle bowl and immediately rubbed it with his face without thinking. After taking it, he was burned by the freshly made noodle soup and made himself dirty.

"Really! Brother! How could you do this!"

Dororo next to him suddenly felt a headache when he saw this. He quickly put down his bowl, and then went to clean Hyakkimaru's face.

Hope, on the other hand, looked like someone watching a show, happily eating noodles.

Instant noodles still taste better when cooked than soaked.

Especially when ham sausage, green vegetables and eggs are added.

Moreover, it is very strange that if you don’t eat this stuff for a while, you will suddenly have a strong craving for it one day.

When you actually put it in front of you, there is a certain chance that it will feel boring.

Fortunately, I hope I am eating more happily now.

Judging from the looks of Biwamaru and Dororo, they seemed to be very satisfied with their food.

I have been eating unpalatable food for a long time, and even often being hungry. Suddenly eating such a bowl of noodles really gave me an indescribable feeling of happiness.

I wish I could, like Dororo, always focus on the useless Hyakkimaru.

This boy, whose body has been eaten by ghosts and gods since he was born, has never felt the taste of food. Even today, it is the first time he has a sense of touch.

It's obviously such a delicious thing, but it's a kind of sadness that you can't taste it.

Dororo looked at Nozomi again, but Nozomi smiled at her: "Don't worry, I will let Hyakkimaru take back all his bodies, and then I will make a feast for you. Bipa Master Maru will also come with us.”

"Eh? Do you still have my share?"

Biwamaru was a little surprised that the boy he met for the first time would bless him with such great kindness.

"Well, because you are also a good person."

Hope smiled and gave a thumbs up.
