248. Country of Sakura, Cherin and Seven Holy Swords [19]

We emptied all six lunch boxes. The sakura blossom viewing ended in great success.

「That was a really good sakura viewing.」

When I brought up the topic,

「Yes, it was very delicious!」

「The sakura blossoms in my hometown are the best after all.」

How Ria and Rose-like responses.

「Fufu, I am really glad everyone enjoyed it.」

The president, the organizer of this spring training camp, smiled softly as though feeling somewhat relieved.

「Well, I ate my stomach’s fill. So I felt thrice as good!」

「I would like to come here with everyone again next year though!」

Lilim-senpai and Ferris-senpai laughed very happily.

As we exchanged our impressions happily,

「Well then, shall we start playing?」

The president opened the bag which was used as a stone weight at one corner of the picnic sheet, and took out various playing equipment such as frisbee, badminton racquets, and volleyball.

「W-Wouldn’t it be a little difficult to play here?」

This area is filled with a lot of people viewing sakura blossoms, so there’s no space to play.

「About that… There is a small island on “the other side of the Hundred Million Year Sakura”. So we can go there and play while watching the sakura blossoms in full bloom!」

「Oh, there is such a good place?」

「Yes, and moreover, it’s a deserted island! No matter how noisy we are, it won’t bother anyone.」

「That’s great!」

I’m not very good with crowds because I’m from Goza village, where there are far more livestock than people.

(I’ve been living in the city of Orest for a while, so I’ve become a little more used to it, but…)

The crowd at the world-class tourist destination “Country of Sakura, Cherin” is on a whole other level.

In fact, the symptoms of “anthropophobia” began to appear a little while ago. [1. TL Note: “Anthropophobia” is “dizziness experienced in crowded places”.]

To be honest, I am very grateful to be able to go to a deserted island at this time.

「Deserted island huh… It’s kind of exciting!」

「It’s a very good idea, which is unusual for Sie, though…」

Lilim-senpai and Ferris-senpai agreed, but Ria groaned softly with a「Hmmm…」.

「I think the other side of the Hundred Million Year Sakura should be a very good location… So, why is it a deserted island?」

And Rose answered her question.

「There are a lot of special fast tides around that area. Normal ships or boats are unable to disembark on that island. Once there was a plan to build a runway and set up an air route, but the government scrapped it saying it does not have that much economical value.」

「I see, you’re quite knowledgeable about it.」

「Well, I did grow up in this country until I was ten years old after all」

When one question was resolved, Rose brought up a new question.

「But how are we going to move to that island? Sea route, air route, and land route, should not be possible at all, though…」

「Fufu, I have a “secret weapon”, so it’s okay. Then, I will get things ready, so just wait a minute!」

She said so in a good mood and booted up the small black radio.

「It’s me. Sorry for being sudden, but can you bring “that” to the east coast of the Hundred Million Year Sakura… Yes, that’s right. It is for six people.」

And after contacting the servants of the House Arcstria,

「Well then, let’s go!」

With a very nice smile, the president began walking forward while humming.
