Chapter 286
Clear cloudless sky. Hot weather. Trees growing abundantly that it should be expressed as a dense forest. The large light brown river that was winding between it like a snake.
At a certain place in a certain country, along the river, two foreigners, a male and a female were traveling by foot on a path without pavement that was created by the passing of long year.
「Coming to this kind of place right from the middle of Japan's city make it feels like returning to Tortus isn't it? Well, this side is lovelier though simply with the lack of heavy mist covering it like in the sea of trees.」
「It more or less feels hotter than Haltina see of trees though.」
The two people walking the previously mentioned long road that perhaps would make one to express it as an "endless road" with light steps were Shia and Hajime.
Shia was unusually wearing her light blue white hair into a ponytail that was tied with a largish ribbon. Her lively footsteps made her hair and the rabbit ears that could only be seen by Hajime to prance around *pyon pyon* energetically. (The ribbon was an artifact, which made ordinary people unable to recognize the rabbit ears.)
Shia was wearing a plain cutter shirt with its sleeves rolled up, a short pants with short length, and short boots, while there was a large bag on her back. The rucksack had a mark of winking bunny on it seemed to make appeal that「This is Shia's property desu」.
Hajime was also dressed with a white simple cutter shirt and jeans. As expected, he was also carrying a large bag on his back.
「Hey, Shia. Is it no good if I take out Schutaif?」
