We should not interfere with Yuna-sama’s fight by contacting her.
“Is there anything I can help, Mumroot-sama? I want to return as soon as possible. If there’s anything I can do, I’ll do it, just let me know.” (Sakura)
“Well then, young lady, I need you to put away the carpets over there.” (Mumroot)
There were many carpets where Mumroot-sama pointed.
It has a beautiful patterned image on it.
“I was looking for a carpet with a magic circle on it that will strengthen the seal.” (Mumroot)
The pattern on the carpet here is said to be a magic circle.
There are so many of them, aren’t there?
And it seems he is looking for it from this.
This will be a lot of work.
“Sakura-chan, if you’re putting away the carpets. Roll it up like this, then please put it on that empty shelf over there.” (Ruimin)
“Got it.” (Sakura)
I followed Ruimin-san’s instructions to roll up the beautifully patterned carpets and put them away on the shelves.
Small carpets were put away alone, and large carpets were put away with Ruimin-san.
“Grandpa, you still can’t find it?” (Ruimin)
Mumroot-sama would unroll a new carpet, saying, “No,” or “Not this one”.
“I used it a long time ago.” (Mumroot)
“Well, this wouldn’t have happened if you had organized it properly.” (Ruimin)
The room has lots of shelves and plenty of carpets.
Indeed, I don’t know what kind of magic carpet it is, since it doesn’t have a name on it.
“I don’t usually use that magic circle. I can’t help but forget where I ended up putting it.” (Mumroot)
“That’s why you should have organized it properly. It would have been easier if you wrote the name of the magic circle on the carpets.” (Ruimin)
Indeed, looking at the current situation, I think Ruimin-san is right. Any moment now, the serpent may come back to life. I’m inclined to want them to hurry up.
“I know. I’m thinking of doing it someday.” (Mumroot)
“That, you already said that to grandma, and yet, you wouldn’t do it no matter how many times she told you to.” (Ruimin)
“I was thinking of doing it in a few years.” (Mumroot)
“I’ll help you clean it up this time, so let’s find it quickly.” (Ruimin)
“Okay. I get it . But now it’s better to look for the magic circle to strengthen the seal. We don’t have time for anything else.” (Mumroot)
“Grandpa……” (Ruimin)
Ruimin-san complained and put the carpet away.
“In a few years? ……” (Sakura)
I thought about the next few years that I heard from Mumroot-sama’s mouth.
What is going on with the serpent? What is happening to the country? And I… If something happens to Yuna-sama, I cannot return to the country.
The thought of that makes me nervous.
“Sakura-chan, what’s wrong?” (Ruimin)
Ruimin-san noticed that my hand had stopped and asked.
“No, I just wondered what the country would be like in a few years if we hadn’t been able to reseal the serpent.” (Sakura)
“It’s okay, because Yuna-san is there.” (Ruimin)
Ruimin-san cheered me up.
“Ruimin-san, you believe in Yuna-sama, don’t you?” (Sakura)
“Yeah, because Yuna-san is so strong that she can beat the giant snake.” (Ruimin)
Ruimin-san seems to believe in Yuna-sama.
I also believe in Yuna-sama.
“Besides, Grandpa will take care of it.” (Ruimin)
“I will do everything I can. I’m not telling you that to be reassured. But you must have hope.” (Mumroot)
“Yes, thank you.” (Sakura)
I moved my hand, which had stopped.
Then Ruimin-san asked me.
“What do you want to do in the future, Sakura-chan?” (Ruimin)
“The future?” (Sakura)
