Chapter 1318: Founding Festival – Noon ⑨

Chapter 1318 – Founding Festival – Noon ⑨

As we headed towards the place Cento-san wanted to go to, the Eastern Street, I suddenly got curious about something, so I turned to Cento-san and Cien-san, and there I saw the two of them faithfully holding hands just like Tre-san and I, looking somewhat heartwarming.

[Speaking of which, Cento-san likes ceramics, but what about you, Cien-san? Do you have hobbies?]

[Yes. I’m actually a bit like Cento, as I also collect handicrafts.]

[Cien likes glassware.]

[I see.]

Cento-san likes ceramicware, while Cien-san likes glassware. From what I’ve heard, both of them seem to be collecting them, so I guess you can say that collecting handicrafts is their hobby.

[In my case though, I prefer to collect glassware that can be displayed rather than those that can be used as tableware. Although I’m an amateur like Cento, I have made glass work several times.]

[Cien is good with her hands, so her glasswork is also wonderful. Miyama-san, if you have the chance, please check out Cien’s works.]

[I’m looking forward to it. If the opportunity comes, I’d like to do that…… Is there no glassware on the Eastern Street though?]

Since we still have some time to spare, I thought it would be nice if we could also look around for glassware that Cien-san likes, but judging from the expression on Cien-san’s face, she doesn’t seem to be very enthusiastic.

As I was wondering if there weren’t a lot of glassware on the Eastern Street, Cien-san explained.

[……Symphonia Kingdom is famous for their ceramics, but the quality of their glassware is a little lower than in the other countries.]

[Ahh~~ I see, each country has their own characteristics after all.]

[Yes. When it comes to glassware, the one good at them would be the Archlesia Empire. Blacksmithing was originally a prosperous industry in that country, so their glasswork was also quite developed, having a considerably deep history in that industry. Hydra Kingdom has many avant-garde and gorgeous works, which are also quite wonderful. However, Symphonia’s glassworks don’t really have those characteristics…… Of course, there are some good ones that appear sometimes but……]

Archlesia Empire has many mines, so I can certainly picture them having good glass products. Hydra Kingdom is a country that is at the forefront of trends in various fields, so they must have innovated a lot when it comes to glasswares.

[Since the Symphonia Kingdom is rich in greenery, the woodcrafts here are strong. Just as Cento mentioned earlier, it’s also famous for pottery because Symphonia can produce good soil.]

[Well, Kaito, it’s that, you know? That’s just something Cien, who is knowledgeable about this matter says, and if it’s people with knowledge about them on our level look at Symphonia’s glassware, I think they’re good enough.]

[It certainly is difficult to determine the quality of handicrafts. In my world, there were these people called appraisers, but are there any like that in this world?]

[Unnn. There are…… The Appraisal Organization is a large organization that appraises the quality of various items under the jurisdiction of the Phantasmal King’s subordinates, so people who want to appraise things basically consult them.]

Heehhh…… Now that she mentioned it, I think I’ve heard of an organization like that…… As expected, talking about things I don’t normally get to know about is fresh and interesting.

[What about you, Tre-san? Are you also collecting something too?]

[Do you think I’d be able to properly manage something like that?]

[I don’t think so.]

[That’s your answer then.]

[……I see.]

Well, even if it’s simple to collect stuff, managing them and not having any knowledge about them is rough, so collecting stuff really isn’t that easy. I don’t think I can do it either…… Thinking of Lilia-san’s hobby of collecting dragon models though, I think collecting stuff like that would be interesting……

However, I don’t really think I have anything I really want that I can pour my passion into…… Well, I guess that’s just something you can’t force.

[How about you? Do you have a hobby, Kaito?]

[Hmmm, if I had to say one, it would be reading, and then taking care of Bell and Lynn.]

[Ahh~~ That certainly feels like something you’re particular about.]

[……You can tell?]

[Unnn, unnn. Bell-chan’s hair is fluffy, while Lynn-chan’s scales are shiny.]

[That’s right. I recently bought several types of brushes for Bell, but it seems like I would have to swap brushes depending on the weather. It seems like it has something to do with humidity……]

As expected of Tre-san, it seems like she has an eye for the good stuff. Yes, I also think Bell’s hair has become more and more fluffy lately.

Although this might sound like I’m tooting my own horn, I feel that my brushing skills have improved. I used to use 3 types of brushes, but I now make use of 7 different types of brushes, and the feel of Bell’s fur is something I’m really proud of.

I’ve also recently bought a special brush for finely polishing Lynn’s scales. It seems that you would need something different when brushing a Dragon, as you would need something with an appropriate stiffness so that the scales will not be scratched, but will properly remove the dirt, so it’s difficult to choose a brush.

[Fufu, seeing Miyama-san being this talkative about something is unusual.]

[You really must like doing that.]

Seeing me talking about Bell and Lynn to Tre-san, a heartwarming smile, just like what I had earlier, appeared on Cento-san and Cien-san’s lips.

Serious-senpai : [Indeed, when you’re talking about Kaito’s hobby, it has been his hobby of taking care of his pets.]

? ? ? : [He’s pretty particular about their food and other matters related to his pets, so I can feel how much he dotes on them.]

Serious-senpai : [The way he reacts when the subject of pets is being talked about is also different……]
