I FOUND A DOOR TO TENSURA AND BECAME BROKEN IN THE REAL WORLD TOO-Chapter 2: Journey Into The New World
Chapter 2: Journey Into The New World
"There's no one here... right...?"
I peeked timidly out the door to confirm my surroundings, but as I had hoped, there were no signs of people. The area was completely silent, with only the faint rustling of leaves carried by the wind. After making sure I was truly alone, I let out a small breath of relief and stepped fully into the room, overwhelmed once more by the sensation of trees and wood all around me.
Now that I had a clearer look, the interior of the cabin felt incredibly warm and lived-in, as if someone had only recently left. Against one wall stood a sturdy wooden desk and chair, and next to it, a tall wooden closet caught my attention. My curiosity got the better of me, and I cautiously pulled open its doors.
Inside, neatly arranged on wooden hangers, were pairs of slim shirts, trousers, and even underwear. The clothing, however, was noticeably not my size—it seemed like it had been made for someone much taller and more built than me. I reached out and ran my fingers over the fabric. It felt unexpectedly nice, a high-quality texture that was far different from the mass-produced clothes I was used to. For a moment, I felt a small pang of disappointment. If only they had fit me, I might have had something useful to wear in this unfamiliar world.
"Oh, I didn't notice it until now, but there's a window in here."
Shifting my attention away from the closet, I walked over to the window on the far wall. It was a simple wooden frame with a clear pane, letting in a faint stream of natural light. As I approached, I hesitated for a moment before pulling back the curtain and taking a look outside.
And then—
"Whoa..."
Beyond the window stretched an endless expanse of dense trees. A vast forest spread out before my eyes, with towering trees, thick green foliage, and no signs of civilization anywhere. The sight made my breath catch in my throat.
My house back on Earth was nowhere near a place like this. It was in a residential area, surrounded by buildings and roads. Normally, if I looked outside, I would see cars passing by, people walking on sidewalks, and streetlights dotting the landscape. But this? This was nothing like that. There were no streets, no houses, not even the faintest hint of human presence.
"As I thought, it's a different world... Well, the only other possibility is that this place is connected to another location on Earth."
For a brief moment, I entertained the possibility that this was still Earth, just in some remote, undiscovered wilderness. But that theory quickly fell apart when I realized how unrealistically pure the air smelled.

Wanting to test something, I unlatched the window and pushed it open.
The second I did, a rush of crisp, fresh air flooded into the room, filling my lungs with a sensation I had never experienced before. It was... almost intoxicating. Back in the city, no matter how clean the air seemed, there was always some underlying trace of exhaust fumes, industrial dust, or artificial scents. But here? It was as if the very essence of nature itself was embracing me.
I closed my eyes for a second, simply taking it all in.
There were no car noises. No construction sounds. No distant hum of city life.
Just... silence.
A tranquil, peaceful silence that made me feel like I had stepped into another era, or maybe even another world.
Slowly, I shut the window and turned back toward the rest of the cabin. My gaze wandered around the room, and that's when I noticed a single sheet of paper resting on the wooden desk.
"What's this?"
I walked over, picked up the paper, and examined it closely. However—
"...I can't read this."
The writing on the page was made up of strange, unfamiliar characters, symbols that didn't resemble any language I had ever seen before. I furrowed my brows and tried to make sense of them, but no matter how long I stared, they remained a mystery.
"Is this... a language from this other world?"
As I focused harder on the text, a sudden notification flashed before my eyes.
You have acquired the skill [Language Comprehension].
"Huh!?"
A skill? Just like that? I instinctively activated [Appraisal] on the new ability.
[Language Comprehension] :: A skill that grants you the understanding to read and write in any language.
"Whoa, this is amazing!"
If this skill worked back on Earth, wouldn't learning English or any other foreign language be effortless? Not to mention, if I could understand all written languages, it would be an incredibly overpowered ability for someone like me!
Excited, I turned my eyes back to the letter. The once-indecipherable symbols gradually shifted, rearranging themselves into readable text before my very eyes.
I took a deep breath and began reading.
To summarize, the letter explained that the previous owner of this house had left it behind, as they no longer had much time left to live. Since they had no family or heirs, they decided to gift this cabin, along with everything inside it, to whoever discovered it.
Furthermore, due to a special magic inscription, the house's ownership had already been transferred to me, meaning that no one else could enter except for me.
"So, I really am the new owner of this place..."
A part of me found it hard to believe. But at the same time, it made sense—when I first entered the cabin, I had received the title [Master of The House]. That alone was proof that I had been recognized as the rightful owner.
But what kind of person was this previous owner?
The fact that they could use such high-level magic to lock a house to a single person was nothing short of extraordinary. A part of me couldn't help but wonder just how powerful and wise they must have been.
Then again... maybe it was just a normal thing in this world?
Still, I had to admit, I was incredibly lucky. Of all the possible places I could have ended up, this house—this sanctuary—was where I arrived.
A roof over my head, protection from the unknown, and now, a path forward in this world.
Grateful for my fortune, I let out a small sigh and muttered to myself—
"It's only just now hitting me, but... there's something else. This world also has magic..."
Up until now, I had been treating everything with a sense of surreal detachment. But now, faced with undeniable proof, reality finally began sinking in.
Magic wasn't just a concept here—it was a real, tangible force.
If it was possible to lock a house with magic... then what else was possible?
Could I... use magic too?
My heart pounded at the thought.
"Well, whatever... first of all, I'm relieved to know there's nobody else in this house. That means no one but me will ever come here."
Now that I had confirmed this place was truly mine, all of my wariness disappeared. If anything, I was feeling excited.
With nothing holding me back anymore, I made up my mind.
"Alright... since things turned out like this, I might as well check out everything in this place!"
And with that, my journey in this new world officially began.
