Yume 100 Translation | Chapter 1
Kingdom of Jewels - Safainia
Along the streets of Ren, the sounds of orderly footsteps echo.
Next to me, a man dressed in a black suit adjusts his glasses in a serious manner.
Will: [ Honestly... despite having arrived to clean up their mess, it's still a bother.
According to what I'd heard, I'd been wrapped up in a black fog on my way to work...
Before I knew it, I arrived in this world coming from a parallel world.
As was my fashion, I went into town to search for clues. ]
MC: [ Even if you look around, there's nothing strange in particular. ]
Will: [The situation can't be helped. We're short staffed enough as it is.
If this keeps up, we'll hardly be able to clock out on time. ]
William muttered, in a foul mood.
He approaches in a moment.
MC: [Ah... would you mind if we looked for clues together?]
He looked at me critically the minute I suggested it.
And let out a breath.
Will: [It will be more efficient than just walking about blindly.]
He murmured, stretching his back a moment before looking at me.
Will: [A pleasure to make your acquaintance. I am William T. Spears of the Grim Reaper Dispatch Association. ]
With that, he offered me his business card.
(Grim reaper?)
Will: [I wish to ask for your cooperation as external staff due to these unforseen circumstances.]
His expression didn't change when he looked at me.
My own actions were indiferrent and I found myself staring for a moment.

Part 2
Will: [A pleasure to make your acquaintance. I am William T. Spears of the Grim Reaper Dispatch Association. ]
[I wish to ask for your cooperation as external staff due to these unforseen circumstances.]
MC: [First of all, we should ask around about anything different.]
Will: [I understand. We can start with that man.]
As soon as he spoke, William approached a man seated on a nearby bench.
Will: [A pleasure to make your acquaintance. My name is William T. Spears. ]
Looking up at William who gave a gracious bow, the man hurriedly straightened himself up.
Man: [Ah, yes. The pleasure's all mine.]
Will: [I wish to ask about several things, is that alright?]
Man: [Ha... If I can answer them.]
The man, seemingly overwhelmed by William's demeanor gave a small nod.
Will: [It seems I've arrived in another world. ]
MC: [...!!]
Man: [Another world, you say?]
Will: [Yes. I am a grim reaper assigned to Great Britain.]
Man: [Grim... reaper...?]
Will: [I'd arrived in this world unexpectedly on my way back from collecting souls as per our rules.]
Regardless of either of our reactions, William continued speaking.
MC: [W... William! (It's Wi...William-san but it's a little too late to be using Mi... Mister Spears!)]
In my panic, I pulled his arm.
My eyes turned to the man to gauge his reaction and I smiled apologetically.
Will: [What is the reason for your disturbance?]
William frowned and looked down at me.
>You surprised me (Sun)
>Why.... (Moon)
>>You surprised me (Sun+3)*
MC: [Ah... you surprised me.]
Will: [This is a fact. If I do not explain the situation exactly as it is, I can not receive accurate information in return]
MC: [Even so...]
William's stubborn attitude, evident in his words
How do I begin to tell him...
Man: [Are... the two of you actors or something?]
The man looked at us with wide eyes.
MC: [Uh....]
I could only give a vague laugh.
William rigidly adjusted his glasses.

*Accidentally picked Sun. I'm going for his moon route but the wiki doesn't have the guide up as of this writing. Hopefully we'll be going Moon route for the rest of the translation.
