The Moonlight Swordsman

It was twilight, and the sun was sinking, illuminating the sky with a magnificent pinkish-orange hue. The town's streets were still busy.

Aizel went out of the inn, unsure of where he should go next.

"I already have some potions in the ring, some of which are healing potions, while others I don't know about yet but may be beneficial; I don't need a weapon because I already have the sword that Larisa used." Aizel wandered around looking for shops that would be of interest to him.

Suddenly, his gaze was drawn to a small fruit shop. The shop was selling pink-colored fruits that looked like mangoes.

Aizel approached the shop without even noticing the shopkeeper; he was just interested in the fruits.

"Perhaps I should try this," Aizel thought when he was interrupted by a lovely voice.

"Do you want to try it?" the shopkeeper asked.

Aizel turned to face the shopkeeper, who stood about five and a half feet tall with silky smooth blonde hair cascading down her shoulders, a blue dress that matched her piercing blue eyes, and an alluring smile that made Aizel pause in awe.

"Sure, what's the name of this fruit?" Aizel inquired earnestly.

"It's called mangrove fruit. It grows on the roots of mangrove trees in swamps and tastes delicious." As Aizel's attention grew, the woman spoke up.

She handed the fruit to Aizel, and as he took a bite, wonderful juices began to flow from the fruit into his mouth.

"It tastes like mangoes but with a slightly superior flavor." While eating, Aizel compares the fruits and anticipates eating more.

Nevertheless, while eating, Aizel saw that the woman was using mana sense to identify the fruit and pick it up with magic as the fruit floated directly to her hands.

The woman saw the gaze and smiled as she spoke. "Since I am blind, magic comes in handy."

When Aizel heard the word blind, he spoke quickly, "Do you have a child, and is your father's name Henry?"

When she heard the word "Henry," the woman's eyes widened.

"Yeah, he... is my father; do you know where he is? He said he would come in a month, but I haven't heard from him in six months."

The lady responded quickly, with a hint of hope on her face. Perhaps the man in front of her knows something about his father.

"Is there anywhere we can sit and talk? There will be a lot to discuss." Aizel said as the lady nodded quickly and invited him inside the shop.

Aizel took a big breath before beginning as the two of them sat on the couch. "I lost my memories and ended up in the beast forest, where I was rescued by a woman named Larisa..."

Aizel told her everything, including how he was apprehended and taken to a cave where he met Henry, how Larisa extracted life force from them, and how they both planned the escape and fought her.

When she heard how his father not only taught the young man how to wield mana but also battled alongside him against a fire mage and died like a warrior, the lady burst into tears.

"I'm sorry; if only I were strong enough to use magic, I could have saved him. He saved my life by sacrificing his own. He was a wonderful man who adored you. He wanted to tell you how much he loved you." Aizel said while the lady grab his hands quickly.

"Thank you so much for spending time with my father in his last moments. You are such a kind person that you thought about passing on the message of a dying man in this world." The lady thanked her, still tearing up.

"Well, I guess I should go back now; you, too, need some rest." Aizel was about to stand up when the lady spoke up again.

"Wait a minute, you claimed you lost your memories and have no knowledge of magic or mana, correct? I can assist you in this, just like my father did for you."

While Aizel stared at her, unsure how to respond, the lady spoke. He wanted to learn more about this world, about mana, magic core, and how it works. But was it right to enlist the assistance of a daughter whose father died because he couldn't save him?

"Are you certain about that?" Aizel inquired.

"Yes, and don't worry, I don't blame you for anything; my father decided to assist you as a normal person in a fight against a mage." While wiping her tears, the lady spoke.

"My name is Daisy, and you can come whenever you want tomorrow," Daisy spoke with a little bow.

"My name is Aizel, and I'll see you tomorrow." Aizel also bowed slightly and left the shop.

While strolling down the street, Aizel noted that it was already night and that the moon was shining brightly in the sky.

"Well, I should return to my world for the time being; Dr. Shelly may have called or texted me, and I shouldn't keep her waiting too long." While he walked, Aizel reflected on how he got back to this world again while sleeping.

"I was simply thinking about my fight with Larisa and my wish to return to this world. Therefore, what I should do now is the polar opposite." As he returned to his rented room in the inn, Aizel reflected.

While Aizel lay on his bed, he began to though about his room, his time watching anime on the hall television, and his home world.

He awoke after 3 hours of sleep; it was still the middle of the night, but he was now in his apartment's room.

"So that's how it works, huh?" "But how can I do this? Am I the only one who can travel, or are there others like me?" Aizel pondered this while a voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Of course, with my help, now praise me, huhuhuhu."
