The Dialect Rose Garden

Red petals danced in the wind.

The scenery of the town was completely changed to one surrounded by flowers. This space was created by the Dialect that Masaki possessed.

A refined fragrance tickled their nostrils.

Masaki and the others were on a circular lawn, surrounded by rose flowerbeds. A rose promenade continued from the other side of the vine arch.

This ismy world.

When he glanced at todays guests, Suou was looking at the cottage.

Are we going to walk over there?

No, here.

By the time he shifted his attention back there were already wooden chairs and a table on the lawn.

Its like a conjuring trick. Are there any insects like ants here?

Theres nothing like that. The things that can appear here are limited.

So long as theres cake and tea, its enough.

Alice sat on a chair as she said that.

Dressed in a tailcoat, Masaki held a silver tray in his left hand. He placed glasses of water on the table.

Ill bring it immediately.

Okay.

Suou also sat down.

Shortly thereafter, he noticed a bouncing sound approaching them.

Alice kept her composed expression.

Suou stared wide-eyed with a puzzled face.

Hey, is that a rabbit!?

A rabbit about the size of a human child appeared from the grass arch. It was walking on its two hind legs and wore a red waistcoat with a bowtie on its chest.

Alices lips relaxed slightly.

Masaki placed the teacups that the rabbit was carrying onto the table and poured the tea carefully.

HereIt resembles the variety of tea that we had a little while ago, but if you compare it youll see that its a little different. Although its Assam milk tea, it goes well with the cake.

Suou tried the tea while glancing intermittingly at the rabbit.

Hmm, its quite good. If I was to choose, itd be Mont Blanc.

Ye-yes.

Thenshall I have the pear tart.

He hadnt intended to go as far as comparing it, but since they hadnt finished eating what they ordered at Caf de Mancio he would give them the same cake that they had a little while ago.

Mixed with a sigh, Masaki said,

It should get rid of the bad aftertaste.

He involuntarily let out those fainthearted words.

They waited a little while before the rabbit brought another tray.

Here.

It doesnt look stiff.

Thank, thank you very much.

The top of Masakis Mont Blanc was shaped like a rose petal. Although it was connected to the rose garden, the molding wasnt perfect by any means.

He felt that he still had some way to go, especially with the small central part.

Even in his Dialect, Rose Garden, those weaknesses were the same.

The edge of Suous lip curved.

He might have been smiling or he might have been concerned

You should use dedicated utensils for the small part. There are people that say that its heresy to use the same utensils for everything; theres no connection between what you use and the people that eat it, but its good to use the right utensil.

Ye-yes!

The tools that you choose to use are part of the art.

I see.

This is stiff like were in class. Teatime should be refined.

Well, its just like my junior said.

Suou moved the cake towards his mouth.

He nodded.

What is your name?

OhIts Kusunoki Masaki.

Alright. Hmm, well, I should probably remember it. This cake is delicious.

Thank, thank you very much!

What is the meaning of that? Could it be that Suou Reiji doesnt remember what my name is?

No, of course I would remember the name of Alice Clockheart.

Oh, I see.

Ive seen written apologies over and over again. I always think Is it really you guys again? when youre with Sakurazaka Shirley.

In this place, should we make it clear who the strongest Globalizer is? Youre also Level 7, but are you treating me like the others because youre unhappy?

Where did the refined teatime go?

Let it go Alice. Its finally recovered

It had taken a while for the rabbits to rebuild the cottage and the rose garden after Shirley had destroyed about half of it before.

Although the restoration had been many times faster than it would normally take, it had still taken around two weeks before it was restored perfectly.

Come to think of it, hasnt it become slightly wider?

The fence seemed to have expanded when we repaired it.

You didnt intend that Masaki-kun?

Although its my world, the rabbits are the one who take care of the rose garden and manage the buildings.

Suou sighed and said.

Its just like a cake shop with employees.

Masaki ended up feeling slightly uneasy about his view of his Dialect, Rose Garden.
