Blossom-san showed me to a large tatami room that looked like a reception room with a view of the garden. After Blossom-san prepared some tea, she left the room and I turned my gaze to the room and the garden.
The room was indeed a pure Japanese-style room with large tatami mats, decorated with hanging scrolls, an armor, several Japanese katanas and fans with writings on them.
ā¦ā¦The garden was a beautiful gravel garden with pine trees, bamboos, a large pond and a shishi-odoshi, probably inspired by a Japanese garden.
ā¦ā¦Hmmm, I donāt know, I can tell that sheās put a lot of thought into this, but it kinda feels disorderly.
The room is decorated with hanging scrolls, an armor, Japanese katanas, and fans, whatever Japanese stuff comes to mind.
As for the hanging scrolls, I think theyāre alright. āWaitāā¦ā¦ Anticipate, alertā¦ā¦ I donāt know what exactly the writer wants to portray by writing that single character word, but I suppose it was written in imitation of a kanji.
As for the Japanese katana, I guess itās whatever. In fact, Japanese katanas are quite popular in this world. This is because itās famous as the weapon used by the First Hero.
The popularity of the First Hero was great, and even Sigma-san, who Iāve met in that incident with Megiddo-san before, told me that he had come to use Japanese katanas because he admired the activities of the First Hero.
Well, the fact that she defeated a Count-rank with a Human body is probably quite popular among the populace, especially among those who like battles, such as War Kingās subordinates.
However, as for that armor and fansā¦ā¦ To be honest, I donāt think those things were needed. The armor is especially large, so itās quite oppressive being in this room.
As for the garden, seriously, how should I say thisā¦ā¦ Itās so disorderly and I canāt see the concept sheās aiming for. No, I could sense that she put a lot of thought into it, and she was quite particular with its creationā¦ā¦ but itās just, how should I say thisā¦ā¦ Iām not sure if Iām just being a bit prejudiced or not, but I feel like this is āa Japanese garden made by a foreigner who calls themself a Japan expertā.
Well, itās not like Iām saying Iām that knowledgeable eitherā¦ā¦ but I feel that this just isnāt it.
For example, Neun-sanās roomā¦ā¦ That room was almost already a house, but that place was almost perfect. She had a garden and something like a porch inside the room, but the garden is simple with almost no unnecessary things.
Neun-sanās garden had a very clear concept. It seemed to have been adjusted based on the concept of āNeun-san sitting on the porch and drinking teaā.
On the other hand, Blossom-sanās hardenā¦ā¦ somehow feels like it was made on the image that it had all the Japanese culture that she knew. Unnn, I can tell that she really likes Japan butā¦ā¦
[Thank you for waiting, Miyama-dono. Hereās some coarse tea!]
[T- Thank you very much.]
Letās just put her declaring that she brought coarse tea with such energy, as Blossom-san seemed to be having fun.
[What do you think? How are my room and the garden?]
[Yes, itās very well doneā¦ā¦ Blossom-san seems to know about Japanā¦ā¦ about the other world huh.]
[Yes, I feel like itās my spiritual home.]
Hmmm, it seems that she really likes the other world. I wonder why? Could it be because sheās the Spirit of a Cherry Blossom Tree? She seemed to have a pretty strong fixation on itā¦ā¦
[ā¦ā¦Even so, you have a lot of katanas displayed in your room. 4ā¦ā¦ No, Blossom-san has 5 such katanas, so I guess youā¦ā¦]
[I knew youāll notice it!]
[Yes, itās as you have guessed! Iām a āsamuraiā!!!]
She just interrupted me and suddenly started incomprehensible things!? Eh? I was about to ask her if she likes katanas, but this is the first time Iāve heard her proclaiming herself a samuraiā¦ā¦
[As I thought, Miyama-dono, who hails from the other world, would be able to easily recognize it! I suppose it could be said that Iām gradually becoming a worthy samurai!!! Of course, I understand that Iām still far from being a top-notch samurai!]
[I- I guess so. You certainly look like a samurai.]
ā¦ā¦If Iām being honest, rather than a samurai, she looks more like a sword-wielding beautyā¦ā¦ She feels like sheās from the same era as Neun-san, but looking at how happy she looks, it seems like she has a strong attachment to samurais.
[From Miyama-donoās assessment, what do you think!? What it is that I lack to become a top-notch samuraiā¦ā¦ Is there a more samurai-like way of speaking?]
[Errr, letās seeā¦ā¦]
Blossom-san really is coming on strongā¦ā¦ but to be honest, I donāt really have a deep knowledge of samurais either. If I really had to say something, the way she refers to herself (sessha) feels more like a ninja rather than a samurai, but thatās about itā¦ā¦
However, with this glaring, expectant gaze in front of me, I feel like I have to say something. Errr, for the time being, letās try saying something harmless and inoffensive.
[I- I donāt think you really need to worry too much about your tone of voice though? I canāt really describe someone top-notch just because they imitate the appearance of a samuraiā¦ā¦ Besides, I think that, errr, donāt samurais talk with their swords, not their mouthsā¦ā¦]
ā¦ā¦She looked really shocked. I canāt really say Iām any different, but Blossom-sanās emotions feel like theyāre written all over her face, so itās too easy to tell even if I donāt use Sympathy Magic.
[W- What precise and profound wordsā¦ā¦]
[Eh? No, it isnāt really that profoundā¦ā¦]
[I- I see! So thatās how it is! I knew there was no way Lillywood-sama would think so highly of an ordinary human, so Iāve already expected Miyama-dono would tell me something extraordinaryā¦ā¦ You areā¦ā¦ a āSamurai Masterā!!!]
I feel like the conversation is starting to go in a weird direction, or rather, itās like the conversation just left me behind and started to make a full-on dash towards a completely wrong direction!
Also, people have been piling up lots of titles on my name already, so Iād like it if you donāt add up moreā¦ā¦
