299. Country of Sakura, Cherin and the Seven Holy Swords [70]

According to Rose’s story, Rocks Valencia, the founder of Sakura Blossom One-Sword Style, has been traveling around the world for more than 2,000 years. And at the end of his long journey, he met a “living sakura”, and it seems that he made a “vow of succession” there.

(T-That’s a lot of information to digest at once…)

Although the Valencia family are known for their longevity, how can human beings live for 2,000 years?

What is a “living sakura” in the first place? And what exactly is a “vow of succession”?

Questions arose in my mind one after another.

(I’m not even sure which question to ask first.)

As I was scratching my head in confusion,

「Sorry. I’m sure it wouldn’t be easy to believe such a ridiculous sounding story if told all of a sudden. After all, even I, the next head of the clan, have doubts about the description in the clan’s death registry.」

Rose then continued talking, with a bitter smile on her face.

「I don’t think humans can live for 2,000 years, and I can’t believe a “living sakura” exists until I see it with my own eyes. However, the one thing I do believe in is the “vow of succession”.」

She said, and suddenly began to loosen her yukata sash.

Her chest gradually became more exposed.

「R-Rose… what are you!?」

While directing my eyes away from Rose, I tried to suppress my heartbeat that was accelerating contrary to my will.

Rose then shook her head from side to side.

「D-Don’t misunderstand me! L-Look here! There is a sakura blossom pattern emerging here, right!?」

Her cheeks flushed, Rose pointed to her slightly exposed left chest.
