Chapter 427 - I Look Forward to Seeing What It's Like

On the morning of the second day of the Six Kings Festival, I headed out the tower, leisurely stretching my body.

Even so, it seems like I had slept for a long time. Well, I feel like something terrible happened, but I dont really remember.

Well, putting aside the inconsistencies in my memories, Isis-san made me a lunchbox. I was supposed to go around the festival with Lillywood-san today, but since Lillywood-san didnt eat, Isis-san made sure that I had something to eat.

Seriously, I feel blessed to have a wonderful girlfriend like Isis-san.

As I walked out of the tower, thinking such things, I saw that the scenery was completely different from yesterday. I mean, literally different.

After just one night, the city, the venue of the festival, was overflowing with plants as if we had entered a forest, with large trees and beautiful flowers growing everywhere.

Meanwhile, even the buildings had been changed to resemble log houses, transforming the city into something that resembled the streets of Rigfores.h.i.+a.

I- I heard that they would change everything every single day, but seeing the change happen in person, I realized that the power of the Six Kings was really quite extraordinary.

However, I like this green scenery a lot. It somehow makes me feel calm. Im not really an expert about these things, but the term immersing yourself in nature exists, so the place had a really relaxing effect.

While looking at the flowers swaying in the slight breeze, I moved my gaze, searching for Lillywood-san and found her immediately. I mean, Lillywood-san or rather, her form where shes one with a tree really stood out.

[Good morning, Lillywood-san Im sorry, did I keep you waiting?]

Good morning, Kaito-san. No, Ive just finished handing over the operation to my followers.

On the first day of the Six Kings Festival, Megiddo-san gave a verbal overview of his festival, which also served as the opening ceremony, but from the second day onwards, it seems like we would receive the information about the days festival at our accommodations or at the entrance of the city.

The theme of today seemed to be Interacting with Nature, a theme which certainly seemed like Lillywood-san. However, the guide only gave me an overview of the festival, only saying that we should look forward to the events, which made me feel curious about it.

According to the guidebook I bought from Alice, it seems like they would also be selling decorative plants somewhere.

[Even so, the place looks amazing. The scenery is beautiful, and Im curious to see what kind of festival it will be.]

Fufufu, lets see. There are a lot of events here but today, we will be selling some rare and rarely available plants.

[Is that so?]

Yes, for example, the plant called Medhvana, which was used to wash Kaito-sans body, is only found in some areas of the demon world, so its quite expensive.

(T/N: / Meduvaana)

Whoa there, Lillywood-san. Lets not dig up what happened yesterday. Im the kind of person who likes to look toward the future if possible Or rather, Ill remember and start getting conscious again, so please dont mention that.

[W- Which reminds me I- I read that I would receive a seedling of the World Tree as a memorabilia, b- but I wonder if thats alright? Size-wise, I mean]

It was a rather forceful topic deviation, but it was actually something I was curious about. The World Tree, Lillywood-sans main body, was a huge tree that pierced the sky The tree is even taller than Magnawell-san vertically. Of course, I wouldnt have the s.p.a.ce to grow such a huge tree.

When I asked her how long it would take to grow and stuff like that, Lillywood-san calmly explained.

Ahh, please dont worry. The seedling Im going to give you has been modified, so you can grow it in a pot.

[I- Is that so. Im relieved to hear that.]

The World Tree is said to be a ma.s.s of magic power of Healing. A decoction of its leaves is said to cure all diseases, and its fruit can be eaten to heal all kinds of wounds Well, they were a bit over-exaggerated, but since it always carries a small amount of magic power of Healing, it will help you relax.

Perhaps, feeling embarra.s.sed to give an explanation about something that could be said was her own body, Lillywood-san explained to me with a faint blush on her cheeks.

When she said that I could grow it in a pot, does that mean I can imagine it as some kind of decorative plant like bonsais? If its that big, I guess I can be relieved.

However, the modifications came with some negative effects At best, it will only produce one fruit per year.

No, thats enough already. Its important, so Ill say it again, thats enough already.

Or rather, it would still bear fruit huh A Fruit of the World Tree, I mean. For the worlds rarest fruit to be something you could easily harvest Well, Ive been using Fruits of the World Tree as an energy drink, so I guess I cant really say that

[I see. I understand. Ill take good care of it.]

Yes. Id be happy if thats the case.

Ive never grown a plant other than the loofah I grew back when I was in elementary school but It isnt something that I can just let it die. Ill buy a book later and study how to properly raise it.

Now then, I guess we should get going.

[Ah, yes. Once again, Ill be in your care today.]

Me too. Im glad to be going around with you today, Kaito-san.

[]

She really had quite a bad habit of nonchalantly saying such things with a smile. Because of what happened yesterday, I somehow feel like Im being strangely conscious of her.

A- Anyway, Lillywood-san is going to show me around, so lets just make sure we enjoy the day.

Dear Mom, Dad- The second day of the Six Kings Festival has begun, and Lillywood-san is leading me around. I still dont know in detail what kind of festival it is, but I guess thats why I look forward to seeing what its like.

Serious-senpai: [Potted plant-sized World Tree Small World Tree Spirit Loli girl Ugghhh My head hurts]
