Morning sunshine is strange. Even if the air is cold, I feel safe that the warmth comes down from the top.

Even the vampire body could feel those things and still walk around because they were properly tolerated when they were reincarnated. I have to thank Mr. Lorizizii.

Walk through the grounds of the cherry water garden, taking in cold air and taming it as a body temperature.

If it's true, it's more time to stay asleep, but today is the day of departure. If you want to sleep, let's make it a moving carriage. I hope it doesn't shake too much.

... You took your time until today.

After we solved the spa, we spent a few days in the cherry water garden.

Slowly, Kuzha and the others take me around, so I didn't stay asleep every day.

Looks like Mr. Satsuki reported that the hot spring was "Elsie's whim" about it being withered.

So it went through, which means that a vampire named Elsie seems to be bothering so many places.

The matter of the Haquens was laid low. They're also victims, and the hot springs didn't reach the foot without stopping the flow, so that's why we don't need them.

The Enchos are thankful, including for solving herd injuries and hot springs.

On top of that, even from the garden of cherry water, we are benefactors. Because we've brought back valuable tourist resources. Instead of being treated very well, what a free treat they were having.

I thought it might be ant to do this here for a while now, but that's not exactly how it works.

Sakura Yu's garden treats us politely only thanks, to the extent that it "solved the problem a few days earlier".

What was originally planned to be resolved is immediately apparent given the importance of the hot springs. Satsuki also said it would be resolved in three days, even if left alone.

I mean, what we did was take care of a little. If you repay me three days for speeding up the resolution, it means that I have done my duty there. It's not a place to be sweet forever. I wish I had a place like that soon.

"Good morning, Neguseau"

Inside the grounds of the cherry water garden. I came to the roofed space set up to connect the horses.

I greet Neguseau, who is clearly fed better and more highly treated than the other horses, in the morning.

Neguseau doesn't look surprised because he comes to talk to me every day. Wake up the body I was trying to round,

"Algiers, you're early today."

"Right. I usually sleep more."

"... what's that outfit?

"It's a new dress."

What I'm wearing right now is a vibrant red shaker. Handmade stuff that Kuzha made for me during my stay. The color is red, but I have the impression that the purple of the belt is tightening the whole thing, and it's not too flashy.

The Republic wears it out of the judgment that this one is more natural than maid clothes because many humans wear Japanese clothes.

Whatever you say for yourself. I look like I can say an endless beautiful girl, so this still catches a lot of attention, but it would be better than made-up clothes.

stroke the black fur in front of you. deliberate feeling and muscle stiffness, and body temperature. Feeling those things, I labored him.

"Good day, Neguseau. Thank you."

"Mm... what's up, change it"

"No, because they brought me this far. As promised, all the way outside the kingdom."

"What the hell is that? Never mind. That would be exactly what I promised."

"Yeah. Thank you. Good luck."

"... I can't see the story."

Neguseau looks confused. I'm a horse, so the way I make that look is a lot different than a human, but sometimes words make sense, and I can somehow read emotions without a blood contract.

I guess it was a little short of words. With that in mind, I decided to explain the meaning of the words.

"Originally, I was promised a ride outside the kingdom, so Neguseau is free."

If it's true, it brought me this far, even though we can break up as soon as we cross the country. As a thank you, he asked me to make Neguseau's bait good.

Untie the rope that connects him and he will be free.

A bare horse is no different than a wild horse. Even the border will be crossed without anyone suspecting it. You shouldn't care until the animals come and go across the border.

"I'll take you outside."

It could seem like a horse escape, so let's get him out of town properly. When I thought of it, Neguseau came near me.

"Ham"

"Phew!?

I chewed. I chewed my hair.

It feels more like a pinch on my lips than a bite to be exact. Since Neguseau has never done that before, he jumps out surprised.

Neguseau, left behind with a scream, shook his face and snorted.

Though the other person is a horse, I'm ashamed to hear that you sound like such a girl. I send him words of protest as he finds it hard to do.

"What are you suddenly doing, Neguseau?"

"No, you'll be the one to blame for that now"

"I...?

I don't know what the returned word means and I'm confused. I'm sorry, but what if they say so?

If you look at Neguseau's face again, he has a slightly angry vibe. Apparently, it's not a joke.

"Uh... did you want some better carrots?

"No!

Now he got angry a little more clearly than ever. Perhaps it just sounds like a "hi-ha" to a mundane human being, but it arrives in my ear as a clear denial.

No denial trampled and vandalized the morning air, awakening the eyes of the other horses who were still asleep.

They're sending this one an annoying gaze, but Neguseau doesn't care. Ignore my surroundings and I'll just keep my eyes on this one.

Just a few seconds. After spending all that time staring at me, Neguseau exhaled heavily.

"Algiers... you really don't get it"

Words like shuddering, giving up.

Neguseau hits the ground with his hooves and walks. Slowly let your brilliant, crushed eyes lean over here.

Filling the distance for the jump away, he spoke to me again.

"Algiers, is it annoying to have me?

"That's not true. Thanks for your help."

"Then take me with you."

"Oh, but no more promises..."

"Oh, I know what you're trying to say. So it's a new promise. Now, until you know why I'm mad, take me. That's good."

New promises. That would be separate from what we have exchanged in the past.

There is no reason to refuse. Like I just said, it's true that it would help if Neguseau were here. I feel enough gratitude for having legs until I get here.

I don't know what Neguseau intends. He finds out about it and tells me to take him away until he finds out I don't know now.

... Isn't that all the time?

I'm not relinquishing my thought, but if I can't find the answer, he'll follow me all the time.

There are only advantages to me, but there are only advantages to Neguseau. Is it okay?

"So long, Algiers. Where are we going next?

"Ah... uh, take the carriage prepared by Mr. Satsuki for the capital"

"I see. Now let's say I join you in pulling the carriage, too"

That's a very honest word. When we first met, you said, "I won't let the one that's slower than me on it". Was there any change in mood?

"So, uh... Neguseau. Thank you for your continued support."

"Oh. Leave it to me. Let's take him anywhere."

Neguseau says that somewhere for fun. You were supposed to be angry earlier, but you're a weird person, no horse. Is it so much fun being with me? [M] I don't know.

The cherry blossom petals that have been dancing overtake us and ascend into the sky. Morning air is starting to hold temperatures little by little, and in less than an hour, you'll be able to feel warm.

It reminds me of just a little bit of the old days because I see a familiar cherry blossom color. Fixing the messy silver hair with my hands, I caught one petal.

If you look at me, I'm used to the smell. It was enough nostalgia to forget such boring things about why there are cherry blossoms in different worlds.

The name of the capital of the Republic is Sacramento Mia, apparently.

Is there more cherry blossoms there than in this town?

The petals I let go floated around my fingers to play for a moment before I still danced. Just drop it off and I'll walk out.

I hope someone who can feed me is at this destination.
