Chapter 239 - Country of Sakura, Cherin and Seven Holy Swords [10] (1/2)
239. Country of Sakura, Cherin and Seven Holy Swords [10]
We left our luggage at the Arcstria villa, and immediately started a tour of Cherin.
「It’s a very unique townscape unlike Vesteria Kingdom and Ringard! Fufu, I’m kind of excited!」
Ria’s eyes gleamed in excitement at the exotic landscape.
「…So nostalgic. That store still hasn’t collapsed yet?」
Rose, who has completely woken now, looked around with a tender expression.
「Our Orest town is good, but… going to a country with a completely different culture like this is exciting too!」
「I know what you mean, Sie! This feeling as if I had stepped into another world is so thrilling!」
「The real pleasure of traveling abroad is getting in touch with other cultures, though!」
The president and senpais seemed to be enjoying the atmosphere of a foreign country. We walked around with a cheerful atmosphere.
While walking around,
(I see, so this is Cherin, huh…)
I remembered an article in a travel magazine that I read before leaving for this spring training camp.
Cherin is an isolated island surrounded by the sea on all sides, and is one of the small-scale nations that form one of the Five Great Powers, Polyesta Federation.
Originally an unpopulated island that no one lived on, but people mesmerised by the beauty of the national treasure, “100 Million Year Sakura” at the southern tip of the island, moved in one after another, and eventually became a country.
Because of this historical background, the closer you get to the Hundred Million Year Sakura, the more developed the city will be.
(Even so, there is a “mysterious charm” here.)
Looking around, I see only old wooden buildings.
There was not one stone-built house, let alone a steel frame one.
(At first glance, it looks like a group of houses that are about to collapse at any moment, but…)
