By all mean please listen to this song.

It’s important so I write it twice.

Chapter 56: Flower surrounded Town

“… Sakura?”

Words I said almost unconsciously, are direct to the petals in the winds.

It is a spectacular cherry blossom trees come in view while staying on the back of Neguseo.

Sakura trees are planted so that it encloses the entrance of the town and the road extending from there.

Cherry blossoms are overflowing on one side of the main street and you can take your eyes away.

As I went straight ahead, I saw a big mountain.

There are no cherry blossoms there, but green is deep, and it is beautiful as it seems that the mountain is surrounded by cherry blossoms when looking at the scenery.

“It’s a not full-bloomed yet, but it’s still as beautiful as ever”

Kuzuha-chan get off Neguseo and returned to the human form.

The background of cherry blossom petals is a good match for her in j.a.panese clothes.

Her firgure and the background make a beautiful picture.

Shaking her fox colorful ear, she looks back to us with a smile.

“How is it Arge-san ? One of the many tourist destinations of the Republic of Yotsuba, this is Sakura-zaka! It is famous cherry blossom trees that brought all the way from the capital city Sakura-nomiya!”

“Ha, I see. This is certainly amazing, isn’t it?”

The name is different, I obediently accept it.

This is really a

sight of our eyes.

It’s sort of a sight that I familiar with.

Not to mention a tree-lined street where the cherry blossom surrounded, there are many people here wear j.a.panese clothes, the building is also a wooden building, all of which have roofs of tiles.

Illusion as if I came to the ancient capital of j.a.pan.

I almost

forget for a moment that this is a different world.

It feels like I came to the shooting studio of the TV drama.

I want to walk around this town for sight seeing.

In any case, it is dangerous riding a horse to enter the town.

Thinking that way, I get off the Neguseo.

When I stood on the ground, I felt that the scent of cherry blossoms was more intense.

I feel like I’m getting into a nostalgic feeling.

… I did not see cherry blossoms for years.

At that certain time, I could not go outside anymore.

The opportunity to see real flowers was lost forever.

There used to be someone who replace flower vase, but she never brought cherry blossoms in front of that room.

Cherry blossoms are weak.

Sometimes it withers as soon as it folds.

I

wonder how she is doing right now.

Because she was a kind person.

I hope she is doing fine in that world.

It’s been a while since I saw raw cherry blossoms, more like a petal touches my cheeks and hair.

Salted cherry blossom is delicious.

“Arge-san, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing, Kuzuha-chan, what do you want to do in this town?”

“Hehuu, you will know if you go, let’s go, let’s go hand in hand.”

Kuzuha-chan takes my hand with a cheerful appearance.

Her

right hand holds the reins of Neguseo, and her left hand hold mine.

Because I don’t resist her hand pull, my feet will walk naturally, following Kuzuha-chan.

Neguseo

follows in obedience to the drawn reins.

Cherry blossoms and streets are reflected around our sight, and my own silver hair peeps at the edge.

As I walked, the nostalgia that I felt at the entrance became stronger.

I can feel “harmony” from the scenery here and there, and the whole scenery’s impression is still “nostalgic”.

But

I still don’t smell soy sauce and miso yet.

… If only human beings are walking here, I will feel that I’m really time slipping.

People who walk and pa.s.s by are mostly human, but many aren’t.

A man with a beast’s ear like Kuzuha-chan.

A brown person who looked like an intermediate person and a reptile, whose body was covered with scales.

A person whose elbows of both hands are on the wings of the birds, the knees to the head are still the feet of the birds.

Obviously, I am wandering with various races, not human beings in my world.

It is high compared with the kingdom, or the rate of demi-human is high.

Since I could not remember the name of this city a while ago, I would like to attach an interesting nickname from one end.

I kept talking to Kuzuha-chan, I should stop that mischief.

“There are quite a few non-human races”

“This is a sightseeing spot, people gather from various places”

“Most people are in kimono … it seems they are wearing kimonos,”

“They are also doing kimono rental”

“It become more like a ‘Eiga-mura’.”

(A movie village, like

Toei Kyoto Studio Park)

“Eiga-mura?”

“Oh, no, never mind that.”

I understand that Kuzuha-chan can not know such a word, for her it is a different world story.

Although Kuzuha-chan turned her head with my words, she immediately return to lead the way.

Without falling aside, walk with the cherry blossoms surrounded the main street.

After a while, the end of the main street came into sight.

And at the end of the road there was a building.

A j.a.panese-style building with a mountain back, as if towering.

It is two-storey, not a flat shop.

A large entrance that you can see at a glance that it’s a shop rather than a house, and a wooden sign on it.

The letter on the signboard is not the language I know, but it is easy to decipher the meaning.

I have that kind of skill.

Almost at the same time I understood what it is written on the sign of the signboard.

Kuzuha-chan told the words.

The Sakura-zaka signboard is “Sakura garden

“

I

t is a Onsen inn!

“

“Ōbōna misa?”

“It’s ‘Sakura garden’.”

I am satisfied with what I could not do earlier and think about the reason why Kuzuha-chan returned here.

… I wanted to take a bath.

Even though I can become neat with my recovery magic, it is more pleasant to take a bath.

Even so, I prefer to take a nap than a bath, I do not think there is any particular problem in the style of not having to take a bath just by removing dirt by the recovery magic.

However, I understand the feeling that it is not tasteful.

Indeed, Kuzuha-chan has always been forced to work.

There is still a lot of things she want to do. Beside she just lost her mother, I don’t think she get over her sadness yet.

S

lowly soak in hot water may calm her down and make her feel better.

“Is there any place for Neguseo?”

“Yes, of course it is!

“Thank you. Neguseo, can you come over here?”

“Oh, I understand”

I understand from Kuzuha-chan’s guidance that she knows well about this neighborhood.

Perhaps she has been here many times.

Maybe she was

with her family who is no longer here anymore.

Things other than fatigue and bodily injury.

I feel like a nostalgic atmosphere from her.

So do not excavate about it, I just pulled the reins of Neguseo according to her guide.

Next chapter … z … zZ … Don’t worry Yuyuko-sama … I will get next chapter for you soon.

SPOILER ALERT.

Yes, Kuzuha-chan is still sad about her mother.

Until the lastest chapter, Arge go with Kuzuha-chan storyline. Kuzuha-chan in those chapter was really COOL. SUPER COOL.

Their relations.h.i.+p reach next level.

Kuzuha-chan become happier because Arge recognize her as friend.
