Chapter 1358 – Camping Under the Starry Sky ⑨
<Author’s Notes>
I don’t have a lot of time, so today’s chapter is a little short. My apologies.
After a leisurely rest under the stars with a mug of soup, we decided to set off fireworks at a place with no grass. Though I say that, it wasn’t one of those flashy skyrockets, but just hand-held fireworks.
I had bought several of these for this day, and I also made sure that I had a bucket of water ready.
[As I recall, Isis-san likes sparklers, right?]
[……Unnn…… I like them.]
[I also like sparklers at times like this because they’re more beautiful than flashy fireworks.]
I remember doing fireworks with Kuro and the others the day before the Six Kings Festival. At that time, Isis-san said that she liked sparklers.
It’s true that Isis-san, who was holding a sparkler, is very picturesque, and even though she wasn’t wearing a yukata today, but normal clothes, she still looked fantastic and beautiful.
[……Speaking of which…… Fireworks…… has been something passed down by otherworlders.]
[Ahh, I knew that was the case. It doesn’t have a name unique to this world, having the same name as those back in my world, so I thought that might be the case……]
Well, there were many cases where the name was changed later to the name passed down by those who held the role of Hero, so it isn’t possible to determine if things were passed down by an otherworlder just from its name alone.
Many of the names of foodstuffs and other related things had been changed to the names handed down by those who held the role of Hero. From what I heard, it’s done as much as possible, mainly to avoid confusion or uneasiness among those who have been invited from the other world to play the role of Hero.
However, some names were based on the places they were famous for, like Ripple Town being famed for their ripples, and some names that would cause problems if they were changed are left as they are.
[……Unnn…… A person who played the role of Hero from about 850 years ago…… apparently came from a family who makes fireworks…… and from there, they spread the culture to others.]
[Heehhh…… but in that case…… That may mean fireworks could have an older history here than those in my world, so looking at it that way is kinda interesting.]
I didn’t know when fireworks were created, but if the fireworks here were created 850 years ago, it has a considerably long history. The flow of time between this world and Earth is different, so it’s interesting how even though it was passed down from Earth, the depth of its history here could be reversed.
Thinking about this, I enjoyed the leisurely fireworks with Isis-san.
After the fireworks, there was nothing more for us to do, so we went to sleep. The tent was quite spacious and also had those cots.
At first, I thought we were going to stay in separate tents, but Isis-san wanted us to stay in the same tent.

[……Hey…… Kaito.]
[Yes?]
[……Can I sleep…… on the same bed with you?]
T- The situation turned out like this huh…… No, it’s not that I hadn’t expected this at all. When I stayed at Isis-san’s castle before, and during the Six Kings Festival, we somehow always ended up sleeping together.
That’s why, I had some feeling that it would be the same case this time…… and in fact, I had prepared a double-size cot for replacement.
Still, her actually making the request bewildered me for a moment…… but in the end, there was no way I could refuse Isis-san’s wish. And so, after thinking about what to say for a bit, I nodded with a wry smile.
[……I actually thought that would be the case, so I bought a larger bed as well. I’ll swap them out.]
[……I see…… That’s great…… Kaito.]
[Well, it might still be a little cramped for us though.]
[……It’s alright…… Just being together with Kaito…… makes me happy.]
After I returned Isis-san’s smile with a smile of my own, I put away the readily-prepared cots and prepared the double-sized bed.
