Chapter 1296 - Kyudo 1 (1/2)

Haru didn't expect everyone to come, but he didn't really mind, however, it was different from the thought of three girls.

”Do you have an interest in Umi-chan?”

”Do you like her, Haru?”

”.....” Maki only stared at Haru since her questions had been asked by Nozomi and Eli. She had already known that her boyfriend had also eaten Eli, but she didn't feel that surprise since she knew that it might be only a time for all the members of Muse to be eaten by him.

The three of them knew that their boyfriend was dangerous and this guy was an anaconda that would swallow its target when they weren't careful, but then again, they didn't expect his target would be Umi who couldn't even handle a romantic related thing.

Umi had told them before that Haru would come to her house to see the dojo and when everyone heard it, they didn't hesitate to follow Umi and Haru since they were also curious about Umi's dojo.

Haru might have mentioned it before, but Umi's father opened a dojo for Kyudo and martial arts and her mother opened an arranging flowers class.

After he explained all of that, he needed to explain that he didn't intend to do anything about Umi and that his reason for coming to her house was pure because of curiosity since he was also curious about kyudo.

Kyudo is the Japanese martial art of archery, which originated with the samurai class of feudal Japan.

Haru wasn't sure, but if he didn't remember wrong the purpose of kyudo was to teach the people who learned about this martial art to be disciplined since there was a lot of ceremonial matter that needed to be done before someone shot the arrow on their bow.

”Really?” Maki asked.

”Yeah.” Haru nodded and asked, ”Do you still want to go to Chiba?”

”Yes.” Maki thought for a while and said, ”Let's go to Chiba on the summer break.”

”Good.”

”What's this? Why do you want to go to Chiba?” Nozomi asked curiously.

”She's going on a date with me, similar to how I went on a date with Eli before,” Haru said.

Eli blushed since this guy reminded her about the date before. She felt a bit guilty when she slapped Haru's cheek, but at the same time, she also felt happy when she thought that the relationship between the two of them had been determined.

”Do you want to go on a date too, Nozomi?” Haru asked.

”Eh? Is that alright?” Nozomi asked with a smile.

”Why not? Is there somewhere that you want to go?” Haru asked. He hadn't taken Nozomi on a date and spent most of his time with her in her apartment after all.

Nozomi thought for a while and said, ”How about Nara? Is that alright?”

”Nara?”

Haru raised his eyebrow, wondering whether there was something special about this town, but then he remembered something and asked, ”Do you want to go on a pilgrimage?” His question wasn't wrong since in Nara there were a lot of old temples and shrines since it was the capital city of Japan during the Nara period from 710 to 794.

It could be said that this town was a town of religion in Japan.

”Hehehe, I just want to go with you to visit various temples and shrines,” Nozomi said with a smile.

Haru nodded and said, ”Why not? Once we have set the date, let's go there.”

”Good!”

Nozomi smiled happily.

Looking at Nozomi's reaction, Haru suddenly felt that his shirt was being tucked. He turned his head and saw Maki pouting. Eli also did the same.

”...”

”If you have some places that you want to visit then let's go whether it is in this country or abroad, I don't mind,” Haru said without hesitation.
