"Open it....."

"Congratulations!

New Year.

New Year's morning for all of us.

The sky that appeared outside the window was blue in color, and it seemed to indicate a good year.

"Nyaa, it's warm ♪"

Canade seemed to like the kotatsu and his tail swayed loosely.

It seems to be a heating appliance used in the eastern continent... but it certainly feels good.

I can feel not only the warmth, but also the comfort, and I'm going to fall asleep.

"Oh? Whose leg is this?

"Hmm? Does that mean this is Tania's foot?

"What is it, Luna?It's a little leg. "

"Fufu, unlike Tania, I'm smart and slim!

"Heh...."

"Kukuku"

"Blubber"

"Tania, ignore my stupid sister.And don't let the killer go.Nina and Finia are scared. "

It should be warm in the kotatsu, but Nina and Finia's faces are blue.

Tania must be staring at me.

Girl's leg thickness is prohibited.

I wonder if it's something you shouldn't touch.

I'll be careful.

"Hafuu... you're so warm./(adv-to, adv-to) (on-mim) thump/thump/thump/"

"It's great."

"Ofuu...."

The sakura was sandwiched between Refa and Iris from left and right.

Bury your upper body in the fur of your calves, and go down into the kotatsu.

It's a superb space, warm up and down.

Sakura seemed a little annoying.....

Somehow, it seems to be good to take care of, and it does not move while standing still.

It's like two faithful dogs.

"Phew...."

Enter the kotatsu and relax from the New Year.

That's the best luxury.

"Ladies and gentlemen..."

Tina came here fluffy.

Around it is something cooked in the kitchen.

Each can be arranged in front of everyone.

"What is this...?

The bowl resembles a bowl, but it is somewhat small in size.

Beautiful glossy black with gold details.

It is a very carefully crafted vessel.

There are a lot of vegetables and chicken in that vessel.

It is simmered in a golden soup with a good aroma.

And there's a white object in the middle that you're not familiar with.

When I followed it with chopsticks, it stretched.

"Nhh... uhhhh!

"Hey, Kanade.What's inspiring the hunting instinct? "

"I mean, it feels like it's stretching, and when I look at it, I'm thrilled."

"Wonderful... but fun"

"This is a cake?

"Whoa, does Rifa know about rice cakes?

"Food made from rice, mainly distributed in kagnes.Correct? "

Correct.Hey, candy. "

Recently, I felt like Tina was turning into a neighborhood grandmother.

"Speaking of which, Kriosian was in the East Continent.It's close to Kagne, so there's a lot of stuff and information coming in. "

"It's hot, but hafufu... it's good!

Sola and the others were eating a mochi that stretched out with hafu.

I'll take a bite, too.

It feels like the sweetness and taste of rice are condensed....

However, the texture is also enjoyable.

"Heh, there's food like this."

"It seems that it was simmered with vegetables and chicken.I was told by a merchant who came from the East Continent the other day.Tasty?

Oh, that's good.

"It's hot, but that's good, too.Sakura, are you okay?

"Cune....."

The sakura also behaved like a stew, but she didn't like it hot, and it seemed a little spicy.

"I'll be cold.Phew, phew... here. "

On!

Cut the chilled chicken and mochi into small pieces and serve them to the crisps.

Sakura was happily bitten.

Now he seems to be fine, swallowing it...

"On, on, on, on!

You're shaking your tail and sweetening it as if you were begging more and more.

Honestly, she's cute.

Now let's focus on vegetables.....

"What... Finia.Is there anything bad about crispy food?Look, just like the cat doesn't like citrus fruit, that's how it feels. "

"Hmm? Um... I don't think there's anything in particular.Sakura looks like a dog, but she's the strongest seed... "

"Oh, I see.Then, is there a problem? "

Serve the vegetables with peace of mind.

The sakura did not like or dislike it, and the vegetables were eating happily.

"... hey, Rain's husband.Do you mind if I say, "Uh-huh" to Sakura?

"Fine, but what's the matter?

"I mean, are you going to eat the food we cooked so delicious?It's so cute. "

"If that's the case, I'd like to do it too.I'm more of a dog than a cat. "

"Okay, okay."

"Coon"

Sakura was spoiled by everyone.

"I feel somehow in danger of my position!?

Kanade remembered a strange sense of crisis.

――――――――――

After I finished eating, I went out.

I'm going to go to the first shrine.

It seems that they greet the gods on the New Year in a culture passed on to Kagne.

I'm looking forward to it because I've never done it before.

Everyone is changing into a costume in the house.

That costume...

"Rain, goodbye!

Looking back, I see some costumes... everyone dressed in kimonos.

"Hey, Rain.What about my kimono?

"This is my first time wearing it, but it's really cramped...."

"But beautiful and cute."

I've seen a kimono for the first time, but I think it's very good.

I can't lose sight of everybody.

It has a variety of patterns and is gorgeous, but there is something to it and it's a calm garment.

Everyone's usual bright image turns around and feels soft.

Besides, the accessory on my head, the cymbal, gives a good taste again.

Everyone was shining brighter than usual because the clasp itself was a gorgeous item.

It's not only that, but it also holds your hair together, so it has an unusual atmosphere....

"Yeah, I think it's really good.Everyone looks good together. "

"Nyahah, Rain praised me ♪"

"Well, you're not feeling bad, are you?You can praise me even more. "

"Hey, Rain's husband?Where are we?

Tina said that on Nina's head, wearing a doll-sized kimono.

It was made to order.

"Oh, I think it's cute.In a different atmosphere... it feels attractive. "

Hey, Rain's husband is so good.

Is it a concealment, or is it a pacifying slap?

It hurts plain.

"By the way, I say hello to God, where are you going?

"As a god, is it still a church?

"No, there's a company on the hill.I think I'll go there and say hello.Not only the company, but also various stalls. "

"Oh, the stall!I want lots of good food!

"Ouch, yes... I'll eat!

Luna and Nina were burning in their appetites.

While smiling at them, they move to the hill.

The big road was straight ahead, and I saw the company at the back.

It has a different architectural style from the church and has a calm atmosphere.

There were stalls lined up on the left and right of the road, and a lot of people smiled.

"Oh, it's more like a festival than a place for prayer."

"bustling"

"Hawawawah, is it okay to have a walrus in here!?

"It seems we've set up a place where everyone can say hello with ease.I wonder if the festival side is strong, as Enris says. "

"I see. I'm more interested in stalls."

"Ah, that smells good...."

"Oh, there's a hot dog too!

People seem to be more interested in food.

That sounds like it.

Encourage them to go ahead, laughing bitterly.

Let's go around the street later.I have to say hello to God first. "

"Yes."

Let's all go to the company.

It is time to wait for the turn and offer your prayers.

After releasing the bronze coins, they offer prayers in unison.

At this time, it seems that you should simply make a wish.

If you're really going to pray, there's a lot of weird things about it....

Because of the festive side, as I mentioned earlier, it's nothing.

……

After we all prayed together, we left the company.

"What did you wish for?

"Hmm... I wonder if I can be really strong?

"What a militant favor... so that Sola can improve her cooking."

"I don't think that's possible... I want a new cooking utensil."

"I'm... healthy."

We're going to improve our maid skills

"I want to be as strong as Tania."

"Wow, my walrus, well, let's make you feel a little bit stronger..."

"On! On! On!

"I want to eat a lot of delicious food..."

"Fufu, I wish I had a hobby."

Everyone's falling apart.

But I could say it was a wish.

"Hey, what did Rain do to you?

"Me? May I stay with everyone from now on..."

――――――――――

Afterwards, climb the high ground.

From the highlands overlooking the city, you can see the bustling city of the new year.

And the sun shining in the blue sky.

This year, the sun I saw for the first time is so beautiful, it seems to change my mind when I saw it.

Everyone looks back and says with a smile.

"Well then, let's do it again...."

"" Congratulations on opening. ""

"" "Thank you again this year!
