Volume 11 Chapter 12 (1/2)
11-12 Date (1)Satou's here Talking about greeneries when I live in the city, I feel that I've only ever seen roadside trees and decorative plants there
I do take walks in the park so it at the dawn of the day after an all-nighter will likely get me questioned by the police
◇
”Now, let's go!”
”Aye~”
”Roger! Nanodesu!!!”
Tama answered Lady Karina's yell in her usual carefree manner, but Pochi raised her voice louder than usual
I wonder if the slight desperation I've heard is because of the stress from the meat absent
From now on, let's make it only two days for the meatless punishment
”I'll prepare full-course , so do your best okay”
”Guah! I'll do my best nodesu!”
Pochi who has regained brightness on her eyes grips both her hands and psyches herself
”Full cour~se?”
”That's right Starting with three kinds of roast beef as the hors d'oeuvre, then shabushabu, karaage, teriyaki chicken, beef stew, and last but not least, thi~ck steaks Of course there are seven kinds of ha the orthodox japanese style and Western style For the entremet, there will be shrimp and crab dishes with sukiyaki”
Pochi's tail is swinging faster whenever I narrate each item
”Aaa I' forward too much, I don't knohat to do nanodesu!”
”Wakuwaku~”
<tln: excited=””>
”It sounds very wonderful In order to e in the labyrinth exploration today”
It's not only Tama and Pochi who can't express their joy, Liza see on the floor
They like meat that much huh
I see the energetic beastkin off, ”Do your best”
I felt a slight pity toward Erina and the others who are being dragged by Lady Karina, but since they would also participate in the ed them to work hard also
◇
”Satou-san, it's a good day today isn't it”
”Yes, the cloud unusually coht feels nice”
I've co estate where Zensan's Selected Corps are staying, but Zensan who's been waiting before the gate of the estate looks awfully tense
Hmm?
What is she tense about after all this time?
I get off the carriage I've borrowed for the date today and escort Zensan to it
She ht be embarrassed because Lilio and so curiously froate
The old coach skirt to get on the carriage
He's soe association, I often ee carefully and is unexpectedly attentive despite his taciturn unsociable-like demeanor
”Zensan, have you eaten breakfast?”
”Y-yes”
Her reaction is slightly slohen I talk to her
Maybe her condition isn't good after all?
”If you're still not feeling well, why don't we postpone the outing?”
”No, I'm fine”
She doesn't look that fine, so I'ood sceneries
I instructed the old coachman to take us to the park near the Ivy Mansion
◇
”I didn't know that there's a place with such rich greenery in this city”
”There's a facility e nearby that enables water froround surface The nature here is rich as the aftereffect”
I narrate back what Leriril has toldthe trees and lawn of the park
In fact, it's not just merely a water source, it also draws up [Mana] from the earth's vein
Putting that said, since Zensan's vigor has come back a bit, let's take walk here
I tell the old coachrassland near the park entrance
”Would you like to take a bit of stroll?”
”Yes, I'd be glad to”
”It feels really refreshi+ng to walk around here, I'm sure you'll feel pleasant”
I tell the old coachman to wait here, take Zensan's hand, and relaxedly walk on the lane under the tree shadows
”Satou-san”
”Yes”
I do not urge Zensan who's faltering after saying my name, I'll just wait for her to collect her words
It's very cool here, probably due to the vapor fro dews
In addition, the sounds of birds chirping between the trees are really nice on the ears
”Um, Satou-san, have you, umm, been a noble since you were in Seryuu city?”
”No, I was a normal commoner at that time”
