Chapter 243 - Country of Sakura, Cherin and Seven Holy Swords [14] (2/2)

With her cheeks blushed scarlet, she nodded happily.

The next moment,

「「…… !?」」

Rose and the president were greatly taken aback.

「O-Oo!?」」

Lilim-senpai and Ferris-senpai leaned forward curiously.

(W-What?)

Tension, curiosity, and anxiety – an indescribable and difficult atmosphere loomed, mixed with those various emotions.

(W-What the hell is happening?)

When I was puzzled by the mysterious situation that occurred out of nowhere,

「A-Allen… It may be strange to demand something like this, but… I, too.. want… a present from you…」

「O-Onee-san would like one too…」

Rose and the president requested, with their faces flushed.

「Eh, err…」

Rose has always helped me at every instance.

When Ria was captured by the Black Organization, and the time when I went to the Holy Ronelia Empire to rescue the president, she has always lent her strength.

The president brought me to Cherin for spring training camp and Veneria for summer training camp. And I am indebted to her for all the help in Thousand Blade Academy.

I don’t mind giving presents to the two of them at all – No, rather, I would actually like to present them proactively.

「S-Sorry… I’m a little low on cash right now, so can I do it at another time?」

Sad to say. I only have 3,000 gold on hand.

It’s not very realistic for me to buy two more presents at this time.

When I told them about my tight situation at the moment,

「S-So you will “next time”?」

「R-Really!?」

Rose and the president tried to confirm it.

(T-They’re really into it now…)

As Paula-san said, girls really love presents.

「Yes, of course.」

「I, I see!」

「Y-Yay!」

The two of them smiled very happily when they got the “promise of a present”.

(But I’m in trouble now…)

To be honest, I have little money even back at the dorm.

(When I get back, I think I’ll have to start working part-time.)

……No wait.

(Just like before, I can participate in some regional Sword Festival and aim for the prize money.)

As I was thinking that to myself, the now very cheerful president clapped her hands.

「Well, we’ve all got our sakura products, so let’s start our tour!」

Then, we decided to go sightseeing in the Country of Sakura in earnest.
