When I sneaked out of the cellar, several young contractors who were still in the middle of their work were startled by my sudden appearance. Well, from their point of view, I had confined myself in the cellar for almost 2 hours now, so it couldn’t be helped.
Upon stepping outside, the sun was already beginning to set, so the workers were preparing to call it a day. By the looks of it, it should be around…… 4 P.M. now I guess.

It’s a different matter but, I have absolutely no idea how the time works in this world at all (it could be just a minor difference of several seconds or minutes). Generally, there appears to be 24 hours in a day here as well, and the length of the day is mysteriously also the same on the other side.
First of all, assuming the length of the day for the two places are different—- if, for example, there are 36 hours in a day here—, it would be quite confusing if I were to go back and forth between the two worlds (there might be an advantage to that though). After all, it would be quite troublesome if I ended up returning to the other side in the dead of night or too early in the morning. Although, there is a way to prevent that from happening by calculating them beforehand……. Besides, going to and fro between two places with different time zones can negatively impact our circadian rhythm, which in turn will affect our physical condition. 1
I couldn’t really explain it in detail but……in terms of the day length, if the time in Japan is 12 o’clock, then the time here would also be 12 o’clock, and if the time there is 6 o’clock, it would also be the same here. In other words, even though they are two totally different places (I have yet to confirm this properly), the sensation I felt is no different than being in Japan.
There was no change in my time perception regardless of how many times I travel between the two worlds. That seems to be the gist of it.
I have not fully grasped the changing of the season here. Nevertheless, at the very least, assuming that this is not Earth but another planet, the rotation period of this planet is not only the same as Earth but the longitude of this place is also similar to Japan.
I guess the story might have sounded too good to be true. Or rather, it couldn’t be helped since this is another world…. Well, there’s no use thinking about it. I guess being lucky is lucky. Based on my intuition, there doesn’t seem to be anything out of place.

After searching around for a short while, I found Hetty-san talking to a contractor by the stable. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to invite her along so we could return to Rebecca-san’s house together but…..since she hasn’t noticed me yet, I’ll just go back without her.
The maintenance of the mansion outside seems have progressed considerably. The stable appears to be almost completed and there didn’t seem to be any problems with the mansion either. The area around the well has also been cleaned thoroughly. There were already signs of the well being used numerous times by the contractors. Seeing that the well has been neglected for a long time, though, the quality of the water proved to be quite worrisome…..I should probably get a water quality testing kit when I get back.
Upon returning to Rebecca-san’s house, I noticed that Diana was in the middle of a horseback riding practice, while Marina……seemed to be brandishing her halberd with intense concentration……..I wonder if it’s a special training given by Rebecca-san……..
As for Marina’s swinging practice—-
