277 Later. A Boy'S Edition Gems In The Woods
"Then go, Mae"
After having fun with the Allens, Sister Ferris distracted me and finished May's work earlier than usual. We thanked Sister Ferris for her favor and left the royal palace.
"So, where are you going, Roy"
"Oh, let's have a tummy somewhere first. After that, I want to look around the city and get out of the king's capital for a little while in the evening or so. Ready?"
May snorts at my words. All right, let's start with the tummy. I go to a somewhat stylish shop instead of a dining room where I go all the time......
This is a shop I heard from a samurai who works in the royal palace. Everything seems to be a popular store for women, and it seems to be a Kowloon Pavilion and a rival store. I'm sorry about the Kowloon Pavilion where I went, but let me use this one today.
When the two of us go inside, a female clerk comes and asks her to show us to her seat. If you look closely, it's the royal palace maid's day off, or you're here with some people. I pretend I don't know this place.
Then order the food. I had a meaty meat set meal and Mae made it a salad set. May also has a lot of beautiful people around, so I'm worried about that.
But unfortunately, Mae isn't pretty, she's cute. I feel different from the beautiful sisters around me again.
"I was going to come to this store, but you're going to tell the nearby Kowloon Pavilion."
"Oh, I know that. Besides, there's Sister Priscia. She's the manager."
Hilde brings rare ingredients from all over the continent. Looks like some ingredients can only be eaten at this Wang Du or Nanol store.
That's what occasionally comes out as a fixed meal, and everyone eats it unaware.
The price of a regular meal is no different because Mr. Hilde is not obsessed with extra money. Because I wish I could even pay my employees. Well, still, sales are in black.
Then, eating while talking to May, the ladies I know look at this one with a flicker. Hey, don't look at me. It would be embarrassing though.
May also laughs bitterly at the gaze of those samurai. I know exactly how that feels.
"It's the ladies who work in the royal palace over there, isn't it? They're watching so much."
"You care. Me and May are on a date."
"... Huh! Day......!
... The May one, you never cared before. You finally realized what I said. You blushed. I'm glad to see a face that turns red and illuminates, but it's sad that I haven't been aware of it before.
Still, what they won't say about going home is that May has admitted it. All right, let's keep going.
Me and May hang out in the city after lunch. This city has been really vibrant in the last three years.
"How many kilos are you kidding?
If I looked around like that, May would look up to me like a peek in. Lovely.
"No, this city's grown pretty big, too, I thought."
May laughs at Couscous when I'm honest... but she won't laugh.
"Hehe, at all Roy says things like Grandpa. We're not 14 yet."
"I am, though. I know this city after the war with Regalia."
"Well, there's nothing I don't know. Still, stop saying such grandpa stinks, right? We still have to keep working."
May walks forward, laughing with Couscous. I'd like you to spend the rest of your long life with me. I'm going to say that, but I'm going to get over it.
That's not what I'm saying right now. We have to put up with it till night.
Then, I look around at the various shops as May. May doesn't have much appetite. You ask me if I want anything, but I'm told there's nothing in particular.
He said it would just be fun to look around like this. Well, I don't think so. I've never wanted room myself.
Looking around having fun, it was evening if I noticed. That's just the right time.
"May, I think it's time we went outside, okay?
"Hmm? Yeah, it's good"
Good. Keep going to the gate and borrow the horse you were asking for. I've been able to ride a horse in the last three years. If you two ride on this horse, you'll be there in about an hour.
"May, keep your hands around my hips and don't fall off."
"Yeah, okay"
Give May a hand and put him behind me. Mae on my back, she turns her hand around my hips and hugs me. Ugh, something developmental but soft hits my back.
"Well, then let's go."
"Yeah!"
All right, let's go!
? ? ?
In an hour and a half.
"Is there something here?
"Oh, behind these woods."
I finally got there a little over an hour after I ran my horse from Wang Du. Don't let the day fall completely any longer. I get off my horse and I have a demon lantern.
Is May a little scared, he clutches the hem of my clothes and follows me beside him? It has been confirmed that there are no strong demons here. Even with demons, it would be goblins or oaks. Then, use the small junction device of the magic prop to snort.
And me and May will go through the woods. It's a little bad underfoot, but the moon's light illuminates through the gaps in the trees, so it's not like you can't see it at all. I have a lantern.
Walking in the woods for 30 minutes. Finally, the trees come out to the open place where they are gone. There's...
"Wow, beautiful!
May runs off excited. That won't help either. The place I brought in was a jewel-like place where color-picking flowers bloom and luminescent worms fly around.
