A Highest Rank in Another World!

I woke up the next day feeling much better. That nervousness I was feeling was gone, and my body that wasn't responding to my commands before was now normal.

'Whew, yesterday was quite a busy day.' It was the day I woke up and I was soon sick again. I hope today is a calmer day.

Thinking about it, I lifted my body and then sat down on the bed. I looked around and noticed Lari sitting beside my bed as she rested her head on my mattress.

"You seem to be having a good dream." Lari was smiling as she slept.

'Okay, but now I need to get up,' I said as I pulled the blanket off and dragged myself out of bed. As soon as I left, I heard a sound, it was the sound of Lari waking up.

She lifted her arms and opened her mouth while keeping her eyes closed.

"Noah?" A little sleepy, she noticed I was on my feet. And after that, she threw herself at me while screaming my name.

"Okay, okay." I tried to soothe her as she hugged me tight almost leaving me breathless. I couldn't just push her away, so I waited for her to calm down.

It took about 5 minutes before that happened.

"Now are you calmer?" I asked while looking at her.

Lari still had her face buried in my chest. At the moment I was shirtless and wearing only shorts.

"Listen, if anyone comes into the bedroom right now, we're in trouble." It was certainly a very suggestive sight.

"All right." But luckily, no one showed up and Lari released me. I could see tears in her eyes, showing that she was crying silently as she hugged me.

'She cares about me a lot.' Thinking that I smiled at Lari and then opened my mouth to say something. I hadn't done it yesterday, and I think this is a good opportunity.

I wanted to apologize to her.

"Lari, I'm sorry," I said as I forced a smile.

Hearing my words, Lari looked confused. She looked at me not understanding the reason for my apologies.

"Sorry I made you worry so much. They told me how you looked when I arrived at the village wounded. I'm sorry for being irresponsible and for having worried you." I lowered my head.

I was genuinely apologizing. After the scene I saw yesterday, I was feeling bad about what I had done.

'I also need to talk to my mom later.'

"You do not need to say sorry! I was really worried, but... I'm sure you had a reason to go to the forest, didn't you?"

"?!"

Hearing Lari's question, I was extremely surprised.

"If you left it's because you had something important to do, isn't it? As much as you've worried me, you don't need to apologize to me like that."

"You are a very good girl, aren't you?" I started laughing when I heard everything she said. She was a good girl.

"What? Don't treat me like a child." Her face turned red.

"Right, I'm just kidding. But still, I hope you accept my apology. I promise you I'll never do this again, alright?"

"..." Lari was silent for a moment, but after thinking she turned to me a little embarrassed.

"Do you promise?" She said while pouting like a child. Wait, is she trying to use a more childlike charm to get my attention?

No, maybe I'm thinking too much.

"Yes, I promise. Now can you leave? I need to change clothes."

"I will help you! You're not okay yet."

"I'm completely fine, now get out!"

"But..."

"Get out..."

"Okay…" Lari left the room crestfallen.

####

After I finished putting on a new outfit, I left the room while carrying my shoes in my hand.

"Noah, are you okay?" When I got to the living room, I found Dala again cleaning the floor.

"Yes, I'm feeling a lot better."

"I'm glad to hear this. When I arrived earlier today and your mother told me what had happened to you, I couldn't help but be worried." She had a slightly sad expression on her face, she was really worried about me.

"Thank you and sorry for the concern."

"You do not need to say sorry."

As she said this, she smiled at me and then continued to clean the floor. I sat down on the couch and then put on my shoe.

"Where is my mother?" I asked as I lifted.

"Probably she is in the main vegetable garden of the village with your father," Dala responded as she continued to clean the floor.

"All right." I walked towards the door but was suddenly stopped by Dala.

"Your mother asked me to keep you indoors. For now, you need to rest as much as possible." She said with a serious expression. She was really quick, in just a few seconds she released the cloth that was in her hand and approached me.

"I'm just going for a walk, I'll be back quickly."

"No sir, you need to stay indoors."

"I'm going to the vegetable garden to talk to my mother."

"Your mom is going to be pissed at me, so just stay inside, okay?"

"Okay, okay."

"I'm going to fix you something to eat, so sit down. I'll also ask Lari to keep an eye on you." She was committed to not letting me out of the house.

What I have left is to stay right here and wait for my mom to come back. When she gets back I'll try to convince her to let me out and do something.

I will be bored if I remain trapped indoors.

####

"No, you will stay home and rest. There's nothing you can do." It was lunchtime and I was sitting together with my family.

When my mom got home, I asked her about allowing me to work, but of course, she refused my idea right away. I'm still trying to convince her, but it doesn't seem like it will do.

"Please, I can help you! You can keep an eye on me."

"I don't want to see you force your body to do anything for at least two weeks, can't you understand that? You just woke up from one near death. Do you remember what happened yesterday?"

My mom seemed to be getting annoyed. My dad was silent but looked at me like he was saying "Give up on this idea."

Yes, yes, I will give up.

And so I didn't touch on that subject anymore.

'I have to find something to do indoors, maybe I can train' If I can't go out, doing some homework and training indoors should be allowed.

No, my mom just said she doesn't want me to force my body.

"Why don't you call Ciaphia to stay with you? You guys seemed to be getting along well yesterday." And while I was thinking about what to do, Lisandra let out some bombastic information.

I looked at her and she was smiling.

'You idiot, don't say that next to Lari.' That's what I wanted to tell her. But now it was too late.

"What happened?" Lari had a pale face and her eyes looked lifeless, it was as if all her humanity had disappeared. Hey, isn't your jealousy a little over the top?

"It was nothing, I talked to her yesterday and Lisandra ended up having the wrong idea." I tried to calm Lari down, but Lisandra didn't seem to want to stop talking.

"So why were you guys hugging?"

"Urg." Making a strange sound, Lari dropped her fork on the table and then fell back onto the chair, seeming not to believe what she was hearing.

"Look, I hugged her, but it was because I wanted to apologize, okay? Was it the same with you, didn't I hug you?" Well, Lari was the one who hugged me.

"..."

"I also wanted to apologize to you all. For sneaking out, for making you guys worry. I am sorry." I said as I dragged my chair back and stood up.

"Noah…" My mom said as she looked at me not knowing what to say.

"..." My father, who had his mouth full of food, stopped chewing and looked at me in surprise.

Swallow this food. It's disgusting.

"You hugged her... You hugged her..." But Lari, who didn't seem to have heard what I said, was still "lying" in the chair while she whispered these words.

"Haaa~~ I think I don't can do anything about it." Lari was overreacting, so I didn't want to try to calm her down.

I don't think the level of jealousy she feels is normal.

Ignoring Lari, I looked at Lisandra and spoke in a low voice to her about how she shouldn't have been talking about this. But of course, she just smiled childishly like it was no big deal.

But whatever, I think the best choice is to call my friends and enjoy my rest days.

'I need to enjoy it while I can..' Remembering my conversation with the goddess, I felt my hands get cold again.
