Chapter 427 - I Look Forward to Seeing What It\'s Like
Well, putting aside the inconsistencies in my memories, Isis-san made me a lunchbox. I was supposed to go around the festival with Lillywood-san today, but since Lillywood-san didn’t eat, Isis-san made sure that I had something to eat.
Seriously, I feel blessed to have a wonderful girlfriend like Isis-san.
As I walked out of the tower, thinking such things, I saw that the scenery was completely different from yesterday. I mean, literally different.
After just one night, the city, the venue of the festival, was overflowing with plants as if we had entered a forest, with large trees and beautiful flowers growing everywhere.
Meanwhile, even the buildings had been changed to resemble log houses, transforming the city into something that resembled the streets of Rigforeshia.
I- I heard that they would change everything every single day, but seeing the change happen in person, I realized that the power of the Six Kings was really quite extraordinary.
However, I like this green scenery a lot. It somehow makes me feel calm. I’m not really an expert about these things, but the term “immersing yourself in nature” exists, so the place had a really relaxing effect.
While looking at the flowers swaying in the slight breeze, I moved my gaze, searching for Lillywood-san…… and found her immediately. I mean, Lillywood-san…… or rather, her form where she’s one with a tree really stood out.
[Good morning, Lillywood-san…… I’m sorry, did I keep you waiting?]
“Good morning, Kaito-san. No, I’ve just finished handing over the operation to my followers.”
On the first day of the Six Kings Festival, Megiddo-san gave a verbal overview of his festival, which also served as the opening ceremony, but from the second day onwards, it seems like we would receive the information about the day’s festival at our accommodations or at the entrance of the city.
The theme of today seemed to be “Interacting with Nature”, a theme which certainly seemed like Lillywood-san. However, the guide only gave me an overview of the festival, only saying that we should look forward to the events, which made me feel curious about it.
According to the guidebook I bought from Alice, it seems like they would also be selling decorative plants somewhere.
[Even so, the place looks amazing. The scenery is beautiful, and I’m curious to see what kind of festival it will be.]
“Fufufu, let’s see. There are a lot of events here…… but today, we will be selling some rare and rarely available plants.”
[Is that so?]
“Yes, for example, the plant called Medhvana, which was used to wash Kaito-san’s body, is only found in some areas of the demon world, so it’s quite expensive.”
(T/N: メドゥヴァーナ / Meduvaana)
Whoa there, Lillywood-san. Let’s not dig up what happened yesterday. I’m the kind of person who likes to look toward the future if possible…… Or rather, I’ll remember and start getting conscious again, so please don’t mention that.
[W- Which reminds me…… I- I read that I would receive a seedling of the World Tree as a memorabilia, b- but I wonder if that’s alright? Size-wise, I mean……]
It was a rather forceful topic deviation, but it was actually something I was curious about. The World Tree, Lillywood-san’s main body, was a huge tree that pierced the sky…… The tree is even taller than Magnawell-san vertically. Of course, I wouldn’t have the space to grow such a huge tree.
When I asked her how long it would take to grow and stuff like that, Lillywood-san calmly explained.
“Ahh, please don’t worry. The seedling I’m going to give you has been modified, so you can grow it in a pot.”
[I- Is that so. I’m relieved to hear that.]
“The World Tree is said to be a mass of magic power of Healing. A decoction of its leaves is said to cure all diseases, and its fruit can be eaten to heal all kinds of wounds…… Well, they were a bit over-exaggerated, but since it always carries a small amount of magic power of Healing, it will help you relax.”
Perhaps, feeling embarrassed to give an explanation about something that could be said was her own body, Lillywood-san explained to me with a faint blush on her cheeks.
When she said that I could grow it in a pot, does that mean I can imagine it as some kind of decorative plant like bonsais? If it’s that big, I guess I can be relieved.
“However, the modifications came with some negative effects…… At best, it will only produce one fruit per year.”
No, that’s enough already. It’s important, so I’ll say it again, that’s enough already.
Or rather, it would still bear fruit huh…… A Fruit of the World Tree, I mean. For the world’s rarest fruit to be something you could easily harvest…… Well, I’ve been using Fruits of the World Tree as an energy drink, so I guess I can’t really say that……
[I see. I understand. I’ll take good care of it.]
“Yes. I’d be happy if that’s the case.”
I’ve never grown a plant other than the loofah I grew back when I was in elementary school but…… It isn’t something that I can just let it die. I’ll buy a book later and study how to properly raise it.
“Now then, I guess we should get going.”
[Ah, yes. Once again, I’ll be in your care today.]
“Me too. I’m glad to be going around with you today, Kaito-san.”
[………………]
She really had quite a bad habit of nonchalantly saying such things with a smile. Because of what happened yesterday, I somehow feel like I’m being strangely conscious of her.
A- Anyway, Lillywood-san is going to show me around, so let’s just make sure we enjoy the day.
Dear Mom, Dad————- The second day of the Six Kings Festival has begun, and Lillywood-san is leading me around. I still don’t know in detail what kind of festival it is, but I guess that’s why———– I look forward to seeing what it’s like.
