Chapter 2449: Barrier
Facing the calm, rational and sharp Robin, Sato Kazuma felt a lot of pressure. Although he thought he had done nothing wrong, as a time traveler, there was still a gap in his heart with the people in this world, especially Sato. He is not a person who is good at communicating and making friends. During the time he came to the other world, he only knew a limited number of people.
Looking at the diary written in hometown characters on the interrogation table, Kazuma thought of the cherry blossoms in his hometown. I really have bad luck. I finally stopped the fortress, but I still have to accept the trial of people from another world. Why on earth is this?
There really is no distinction between right and wrong, good or bad.
However, Sato Kazuma is really afraid that Robin will use his identity to make a fuss, because the islanders are most sensitive to the issue of identity. As a stay-at-home guy, the biggest fear is being targeted, because he lacks the ability to fight against public opinion and lack of self-esteem. The ability to defend oneself.
The disaster of time travellers? Sato and Mako had never heard of this, but the diary in the fortress did record this, that is, there was a senior time traveler who caused the destruction of the Magic Empire. The existence of the Magic Empire has a profound impact on other worlds. Many dungeons are closely related to the Magic Empire, but such a powerful country was destroyed by time travellers. If it were Sato Kazuma, he would definitely be on guard against time travellers.
But it is definitely wrong to overturn a whole boat of people with one pole. At least Sato Kazuma never thought about doing bad things. He just wanted to live a peaceful life and never thought about destroying anything. Besides, he didn't have enough ability to do what he wanted to do. Can't do it either.
"Why don't you speak? Is it because you have nothing to say?"
Faced with Robin's questioning, Kazuma was disappointed and helpless: "I didn't do anything bad at all. I defeated the fortress. You can't convict me."
"In fact, we can. Especially before you so-called time travelers have caused some trouble, you'd better cooperate with us now and explain everything. Otherwise, you will have to spend your next life in a cell." Luo Bin said.
He will spend time in the cell only if he explains clearly. Kazuma is very reluctant to explain because he feels that if he tells the truth, people in other worlds will be even more distrustful of him.
But if he didn't say anything, he would probably be locked up in a cell forever. What should he do?
"You'd better confess, because I will have more and more evidence. In other words, the later you confess, the more things I will know and the less valuable you will be." Robin did not lie on this point. , because she has indeed more and more records at hand: "You time travelers like to use the words of your original world when recording encounters. If it is not something shameful, why do you hide it? If it is not because you want to do something that is not conducive to Regarding our matter, why don’t you admit that you are time travellers? The reason why you are afraid is because you actually want to destroy this world, right?”
"No!" This is a very terrible accusation, and Sato Kazuma will never admit it. Besides, this matter was done by the senior time traveler and has nothing to do with him. He has only traveled through time for more than half a year. He has not done anything earth-shattering at all, and is not planning to do anything earth-shattering. He just wants to feel comfortable. It would be nice to live a humble life with more girls by my side. This is such a simple and unpretentious wish. Anyway, I don’t want to cause trouble.
"No? If not, why do you hide it?"
Of course it's for self-protection, Kazuma thought. Not telling others about his identity as a time traveler is just to protect himself, and there is no malicious intent.
"Stop talking? Not only do you hide your identity, but you also don't accept the customs and habits of our world. For example, the time traveler who destroyed the Magic Empire stayed in another world until he died of old age, but he did not regard the Magic Empire as his hometown at all. He would rather "You said you are not, so I ask you if you can save the entire Magic Empire by sacrificing yourself to destroy the Magic Fortress, would you rather make the sacrifice?" You will spend the rest of your life in the fortress, watching the destruction of the magic empire, and you are not willing to sacrifice yourself? "
Sato Kazuma was silent. He really had no sense of belonging to another world. After all, he knew few people and didn't know enough about the folk customs of other worlds. Unlike in my hometown, I have been celebrating hometown festivals since I was born and receiving education on customs. Although he has been in another world for more than half a year, Kazuma has been trying to survive. Although he has attended many banquets, he does not feel that the banquets in another world have any cultural meaning at all. Although he integrated the crystal ball and learned the language and characters when he traveled through time, Kazuma didn’t even have an in-depth understanding of the different world.
Take the banquet culture for example. In an island country, it is difficult to understand this culture of gathering in the Adventurer's Guild for banquets and eating and drinking whenever there is nothing to do. Although the island country has a party culture for returning from get off work, it is still different in form from the banquet culture.
The islanders have a party culture after get off work, the Central Plains have a wine table culture, the West has a party culture, and Rome has a swimming pool culture... Each civilization has its own way of gathering and communicating, and the banquet culture of other worlds is one of them.
This kind of culture is not very good, but it has its own reasons for being passed down. It should be said that it is a communication method that this civilization can happily accept. As a time traveler, since you have come to a different world, you must learn to integrate with them. Kazuma really needs to learn this from the goddess.
Many people actually think this kind of culture is not good, and no one can tell the source, but it is repeatedly banned and has become a very stereotyped cultural symbol. But since it cannot be changed, there must be a deep-seated reason, that is, because humans need a way to socialize in groups, so humans of different civilizations have developed different ways. Some people may think it is not good, but if they think it is not good, they have to develop a more universal group social method to replace the original one. Otherwise, it is just empty talk to say that the drinking table culture should be abolished, because the drinking table culture is only superficial, and the deep-seated reason is that it is a group social method that can be generally accepted.
For example, the group social method of college students may be to go to the Internet cafe, even if they watch the news broadcast in the Internet cafe. This is a way to quickly recognize identity and establish social interaction. And persuading people to drink at the drinking table is actually to establish the level of the drinking table. After all, there must be differences in group social interaction. Persuading people to drink is a way to implicitly establish status.
The banquet culture of the other world is the same. It is an occasion for adventurers to quickly get to know each other and socialize. Through banquet social interaction, they will understand the other world.
Of course, for Kazuma, who doesn't like socializing, this culture is banned. Kazuma's favorite should be the Succubus Nightclub, and his favorite is the dressing style of the girls in the other world. Unfortunately, because of Duran, they are all marked with holy light, which greatly reduces the sense of perception. However, the girls in the other world are all very beautiful, even with the holy light.
In short, Sato Kazuma has indeed not integrated into the other world, this is certain, he is a rootless duckweed in the other world, so facing Robin's accountability is very stressful.
