I enjoyed shopping with Al-san, visiting several stores and purchasing items like brushes. Initially, I was told they couldn't receive paynt because I was the one blessed by Shiro-san…… but Al-san cleverly persuaded them by arguing with "Since my sworn friend, the one blessed by Shallow Vernal-sama, wished to pay for it, insisting on giving it away for free would be more disrespectful." As a result, I was able to shop normally.
[Well, this thod only works because my sworn friend is blessed by the God of Creation. It's a widely held belief among the Wingeds that going against the will of the Gods is disrespectful. No, well, if it weren't my sworn friend, much less offering those goods to you without compensation, they wouldn't have even sold their wares to you……]
[Anyhow, I'm relieved I could shop normally. Thanks to you, Al-san.]
[Ehehe.]
Hearing my words, Al-san displayed a truly happy smile. How should I say this…… Despite actually being much older than , she has this cuteness you could feel from a young girl.
Well, given her appearance and personality, it’s not surprising that she seems younger.
[My sworn friend! Is there anything else you'd like? If you desire, like the stars illuminating the night, I can guide you to any place you wish.]
[Thank you, but I've already shopped enough…… Hmm. I might like to visit a place with beautiful scenery next. You know, the Wingeds' village is in the high mountains, so there should be many scenic spots.]
[Leave it to ! I'll take you to a place with stunning views!]
It would have been alright to end the tour around the village here and return to Al-san’s house, but seeing the eagerness in her eyes, I felt she still wanted to show more, so I requested a place with beautiful scenery.
Al-san’s expression brightened again as she quickly moved behind , securely holding , and flew up into the sky.
Since there are no bridges in the Wingeds' village, we had to move this way…… that's sothing I should know about, but being like this, her hugging from behind, gets my heart racing.
[Incidentally, where are we heading?]
[There's a place called the Wind Peak, a few distance away from the village. Great winds flow like they were guided, and the wind passing through the rock crevices plays like music. That said, that was apparently not a natural miracle but a creation of our ancestors……]
[So, it’s a place where the wind sounds like music? That sounds amazing.]
[Yes, and the view of the majestic nature is also wonderful.]
As I admired the flowing scenery, thinking we were heading to an amazing place…… I saw a place that looked like a hedgehog’s back with many sharp rocks arranged.
Upon closer inspection, there was a flat area about 1-2 ters in radius at the center of these sharp rocks, where Al-san and I landed.
Looking around, the sharp rocks were in a lower area than this flat area, so they were barely visible. Instead, what caught my eye was the majestic mountain range that Al-san had described earlier as a breathtaking view.
And not only that, but music could be heard as well. The sound, reminiscent of a flute, harmonized beautifully, creating a unique yet pleasant lody similar to a folk song.
[……Eh? It sounds more like music than I expected? Was this place arranged like this on purpose?]
[Yeah, thanks to the surrounding mountains and terrain, this peak is designed so that the wind direction is almost constant unless the weather turns rough. The sharp rocks we saw earlier have several holes in them, and the wind passing through these holes has been adjusted to create music. Of course, there are so tricks involved.]
[Tricks?]
[Yeah. At the entrance to this area with the sharp rocks, there's a special Barrier Magic that prevents the sound from becoming jumbled. It blocks the wind at regular intervals to adjust the spacing of the wind as it reaches the rocks. That’s why it sounds like a proper lody.]
[I see…… Even so, this place is amazing. The scenery is breathtaking, and the music is beautiful……]
Indeed, if the wind continues blowing, the sa rock would produce sound repeatedly, and without so form of interval, it wouldn’t work as a lody. Still, the fact that natural wind and holes in the rocks create music is amazing and impressive.
[This is one of my favorite places. I’ve been coming here often to enjoy the view since long ago…… That's why I've wanted to bring you here, my sworn friend!]
[I see…… Thank you. I’m really happy to have been brought to such a wonderful place.]
[Ehehe, I'm glad you're happy, my sworn friend. Ah, that's right, on the mountain over there……]
Just like that, with a genuinely happy smile, having forgotten her usual chuuni-tone, Al-san shared stories about the area and her mories from the past.
Serious-senpai : [……This feels like a breaking point, so maybe we'd head to Frea-san next?]
