After that, Rena decided to pull him into a mass of people. He didn't handle crowds well, but it was a small crowd, as per the small town. Being there for a bit wouldn't bring any harm, right? They sat down and started on listening to what the hell this little get-together was about. Apparently, they still prcticed there the oral transmission of stories, unlike his own world where everything could be accessed at any time with the internet.

Noboyuki smiled and listened attentively to everything everyone had to say. There were some sad news, there were some grandiose tales of people killing monsters, there was even a story that was certainly completely ficitional, but still sounded so fun and entertaining that everyone listened with a lot of attention, just barely saying anything every once in a while when people were so surprised they couldn't hold it in. Noboyuki laughed under his breath. It was the kind of romance, well, one of the kinds of romance, that men yearned for. At the very least, he was having one of those romances right now wiht his quest to slay the Demon King. Still, whatever everyone said regarding the demon forces advancing made his desire to put an end to this even stronger. It wasn't right, for that demon lord to be taking the peace away from these people. 

Rena then talked about her own experience. She talked about a kingdom named Daldrom that, to be honest, resembled the Italy in his own world quite a lot. The vineyards, the art, the music and everything else. It reminded him of the renaissance that came about in his own world. It was odd, but he didn't think much about it. There was bound to be some countries that developed more that the others in some areas, after all. Same as what happened to Italy. Maybe it was only the natural course of things and how it went in the end, that some kindoms will finally become greater in some regard than others. Military strength, art, technology. He wondered if there was a Leonardo DaVinvi in this world as well, since he admired him personally. 

And then, it was his turn to tell a story. [B]"W-Wha? Me too?"[/B] Now, they put him in the spot in quite a bad way. If he had known that a turn would come for him, he'd have thought of an story before. Of course, he should have deduced that out of the fact that Rena did tell her own. After a bit of awkward shuffling and thinking for Noboyuki, he finally came up with a great story to tell them. Instead of an story about himself that would probably be boring for them, he decided to tell them about Sir Arthur of the Round Table. A famous knight of British mythology. He thought it was right to tell that kind of thing in this situation. He told them how he got his prized Holy sword Excalibur out of a stone and became kind after that, and how he slayed a dragon too. How he united his knights and how everyone of them was almost as impressive as Arthur himself. After finally finishing the tale he had to tell everyone, Noboyuki sat down, still a bit unsure of whether or not it was liked. He just hoped for the best. 

He then turned to see Rena and smiled. Everyone seemed a bit too impressed. Maybe he went a bit too far with his story? He did only tell them bit and bites of what he actually knew of the whole story. Not like he was some kind of historian or something like that. Well, it had some of the effect he wished for, since he wanted to give them a real shock with the stories of the King Arthur that had even become part of the anime culture in his world and time. [B]"Well, that was fun. I've never done something like this, not in person at the very least."[/B]
