Magi Craft Meister

84-15 Garden Party

At noon on April 24, Jen and the others were at Miyagi in Loizart.

The garden party starts at 2pm, but the theory is to go early for such events.

Since it was time for lunch, the attendees were given snacks that would not interfere with eating and drinking at the park party.

Of course, the guests are each in their own private room.

"... I can't believe the rice balls."

"There are many dishes made with rice in the Shoro Empire today."

I see.

"With the policy of His Majesty the Emperor Taishang, imports from Mitsuho and cultivation in the southern region were promoted."

I see.

After all, I'm not compromising on rice. I'm not sure if Jen thought I was... in the past.

"It's delicious."

"It's delicious."

It's delicious, isn't it?

And Merze, and Rubina, and Gou, and the others ate with joy.

If you eat too much, you won't be able to enter the things that were released at the park fair

It was just Ren who had to be careful.



At 1: 30 pm, the attendees are guided to the backyard.

Jen glanced at about twenty boys and girls who were called this time. And there are about twice as many guardians and wards.

I don't know how many children there are of the nobility of the Shoro Empire, but Jen wondered how many would be if they were intended for children around the age of 13.

Guests were guided by the castle's maids and walked to the backyard through an unusual aisle.

Through a simple but heavily decorated gate, you'll find the backyard.

Oh!

"Nice..."

Some of them raised their voices.

(It's nice to be spacious.)

Nin remembered a garden in Shinjuku that he had visited when he was in modern Japan.

There is a lawn square centered on the pond, and flowers and trees are planted.

Hana Persica (a growing variety of Persica (= Momo) to enjoy flowers) blooms, and shrubs such as Yukianagi, Azalea, and Kodemari are in full bloom.

Above all, the flower that Jen loved, the quelly (cherry), was also planted.

Floriba (Fuji) hangs flowers on a sun shade shelf with four aisles and benches.

"This corner is called the Spring Garden."

The maid explained it to me.

I see, the other side of the pond is a summer garden.

Jen is on her own.

It looked like you had a flowering tree planted there in the summer.

(There must be an autumn garden with beautiful trees and autumn flowers.)

Imagine that, Jen. And that's probably the right answer.



The party was guided to the front of the break room.

Even in the garden, the rest house was made of brownish gray stone with no discomfort, and it had a Japanese and Western atmosphere.

In front of the hall is a square, where tables are arranged, and it can be seen that it is the main venue for the park party.

There was a stool, so everyone sat down and waited for the start time.

That said, I waited about five minutes.

2: 00 pm.

Ernst Lupus von Richt Schoro, the current emperor of the Shoro Empire, appeared.

A greeting rises from the crowd.

“Now, I'd like to start the Spring Garden Party.”

The voice of Hillman Deal von Assess, the head of the Emperor's secretary, echoed.

"First, a word from His Majesty."

"... it's Ernst. I'm really glad that the weather is good today." This was also the Lord's ancestor's blessing. Today's garden party was held in the hope that the young people who will stand on the shoulders of this country will simply enjoy this spring's beautiful day. "

The current Emperor Ernst II briefly talked about the spring procession that inherited the thoughts of the founder, Emperor Daimyo Mother.

"I entrust you with the future of this beautiful homeland." I hope you enjoy yourself today. "

Of course, it is undeniable that there is a desire to nurture patriotism through these events.

Still, this kind of gesture was a good thing, Jen told me as she remembered the emperor.

“Well then, please feel free to roam the garden, chat and eat and enjoy yourself today.”

At the end, Hillman, the head of the Emperor's secretary, closed it.

Well then, the start of the Spring Garden Party!

Applause broke out, and when it was over, everyone stood up from the stool and headed for the place they were thinking about.

The stools are quickly cleared by the maids in charge.

I don't dare to introduce guests to each other.

Because the purpose is to have fun and interact with each other regardless of titles, etc.

He that drinketh, he that goeth under the flower, he that goeth unto the edge of the pond, he that speaketh unto the child that was by the side.

Jen greeted the Emperor Ernst II, but Elsa stopped him.

"...... Your Majesty is busy with correspondence right now."

Sure is.

Most of the aristocrats attending the park party were there to say hello, and the emperor was around.

Seeing that, Jen listened honestly to Elsa's advice.

Well then, Saku... let's go under Query.

”Nnh”

Yes!

In one word, Jen said, everyone first aimed under a query tree.

"Beautiful..."

It's beautiful, isn't it?

After all, cherry blossoms are good

The tree is about 400 years old. It is quite an ancient tree.

The color of the blue sky as it looked up through the pale red petals was exceptional.

"This way, please."

Oh, thank you.

The attendant golem maid gave me a sheet to lay on the ground, and I spread it out on the lawn and sat on it.

Jen and Elsa took off their shoes. The others sat down on the edge of the seat with their shoes on.

"Elsa and Reiko and I are here, so everyone can take a look around."

Ah, well then, I'll go.

Me too, Mr. Gow.

"Me too... me too"

"Oh, come on."

Yes!

Gow, Meltze, and Rubina walked away, saying they were going around the garden.

Daiki and Kokona followed them, saying that they would watch over them from a distance.

Only Jin, Elsa, and Reiko remained.

"...... I think I'll relax a little bit"

"Hmm, that's good." Brother Jin has been busy here for a long time. "

"That's right, Father, take it easy."

As recommended by Elsa and Reiko, Jen lay down on the seat.

Spring afternoon on a raucous day.

Jin was relaxed and generous for the first time in a long time.
