1058 – Trip with Fate ①
I made a mistake and posted this chapter before it’s scheduled, so I’m posting this again.
Today was the day of Fate-san and I’s trip, and we had come to the shores of the lake in Archlesia Empire under a crystal clear blue sky.
The scenery was very beautiful and the cottage-like buildings and the lakeside make a nice combination.
There was nothing else for us to do, and the atmosphere was very calm and quiet, which made it easy for us to relax and enjoy.
[Hnnn~~ The atmosphere here is great~~]
[It’s nice and quiet, isn’t it? I think we can take it easy and let loose here.]
[RIght.
It’s so quiet that I could sleep aaaaaaaaaall day.]
[Let’s keep the sleep to an appropriate amount, okay?]
[Ahaha, well, that’s true.
If I just want to sleep, I can just do it at Kai-chan’s house, so let’s just enjoy our trip.]
It seemed like Fate-san was looking forward to this trip and looked a little more excited than usual.
Well, she’s lazing around on her flying cushion as usual, and if anything, I’m pulling her hand to get her to our cottage…… No, but I guess I don’t really need to pull her hand for her to make her flying cushion move, right? Was Fate-san requesting to pull her hand her way of signaling that she wants to hold hands? Hmmm, I suppose I’ll take this request of hers as something good for the time being.
[By the way, Fate-san.
What’s the first thing we’re going to do when we get there? Well, I did bring some things we could spend time with.]
[I think spending time playing would be nice.
But let’s not play board games, Kai-chan is too weak.]
[Ugghhh…… Ahh, by the way, I also bought some fishing rods.
There’s a lake here, so I thought we could do some fishing.]
[Heehhh, fishing sounds great.
It’s perfect for the situation and sounds relaxing.
But if we’re going to do that, it’d be better to go fishing in the daytime, right?]
Oya? Fate-san was surprisingly hopping along with the idea.
I thought she was going to say that fishing was too troublesome……
[I suppose so.
Then, should we go fishing first?]
[Unnn, unnn, I agree~~]
It was a little surprising, but we took a quick look at the cottages for the time being, before we headed to the edge of the lake to fish.
We had placed our luggages in our magic box, so we didn’t have to leave it at the cottage and it would be more comfortable for us when we go back.
It’s a really nice day today, and the breeze is blowing a little bit.
[Well then, Fate-san.
Here, a fishing rod.]
[Eh? No, I don’t need one.]
[……Unnn?]
[Look, think about it, Kai-chan.
Fishing is hard work, isn’t it? Isn’t it dreadful? Isn’t it troublesome?]
[……N- No, I’d somewhat imagined that Fate-san would say that, but then why would you want to go fishing?]
Just as we were about to go fishing by the lake, for some reason, Fate-san suddenly said fishing is troublesome, so I tilted my head.
I feel like Fate-san acting like this was certainly just as I had imagined, but then, I don’t know why she was so eager to go fishing earlier.
[No, what I mean is that I’ll be watching you fish, Kai-chan.]
[……Ahh~~ I see, I think I kinda understand now.
In other words, it’s troublesome for you to go fishing, but it’s fun for you to laze around and chat with me while I fish?]
[Yes, yes! That’s exactly what I was thinking! Anyhow, I’ll cheer for you, Kai-chan, so go get them~~]
Seeing Fate-san happily smiling, I wryly smiled, before taking out a fishing rod and a small chair from my magic box.
[Do you fish a lot, Kai-chan?]
[No, I don’t really have much experience.
I mean, this fishing rod I’m using is brand new.]
[Ahh, indeed.
It’s still scratch-free.]
[Well, the purpose of this trip is for us to relax anyway, so it’s okay even if I don’t catch anything.]
While making idle chit-chat, I lightly casted my bait to the waters.
When fishing in a lake, it might be better to move the lure about to attract the attention of the fish, but I wasn’t really aiming to catch anything.
So, I used a tool I bought beforehand to hold the rod in place.
“”
[Would you like something to eat, Fate-san? I’ve bought quite a few things.]
[Sounds good.
I wanna eat some sweets~~]
Nodding at my suggestion, Fate-san snapped her finger, and a circular wooden board suddenly appeared between me and Fate-san.
It was probably meant to be our table.
Even though it was floating in the air though, it was quite stable.
Seeing that we had a table, I laid out the snacks I had bought on it.
As much as possible, I tried to prepare the latest and most unusual ones I had found.
[Ohh~~ You’ve got various stuff here.
These rusks are really red, aren’t they?]
[If I remembered correctly, they should be strawberry flavored.
The tag near it was labeled “concentrated strawberry” after all.]
[Heehhh~~ The color makes them look like tongues.]
[Wait, Fate-san.
We’re about to eat them, you know?]
[Ahaha, sorry, sorry.]
As we talked with each other, I took out wooden cups and poured tea from the thermos I prepared for today.
I could have prepared regular teacups for us, but I felt that wooden cups would be more appropriate for the atmosphere around us.
[Look, look, Kai-chan.]
[Unnn?]
[BLEEEEEHHH~~]
[Pfft, what are you doing?]
Seeing Fate-san fooling around with a red rusk in her mouth, I couldn’t help but smile.
We’re supposed to be having a very silly conversation, but I wonder why? Something like this just feels really enjoyable.
How should I say this…… I think this kind of atmosphere is really nice.
Serious-senpai : [……I just thought of something.]
? ? ? : [What is it?]
Serious-senpai : [Aren’t those immigrant chapters earlier kinda serious?]
? ? ? : [Well, they sure are.]
Serious-senpai : [……Is the Author just spreading salt around? All in preparation for the incoming sweet chapters?]
? ? ? : [……I wonder.]
