Chapitre 92: The Boy Of The World Of The Book
If my hand reaches out to your heart like it catches this snow…
~
Syaoran: Wh… at…?
Princess! Mokona! Kurogane-san! Fye-san!
Did we move to another world without me noticing?
No. There was no particular change to Mokona just then.
Calm down. Think about it.
Did anything change?
~
There wasn’t anything written in it before. though!
~
?!
Child: Got it!
~
Syaoran: EH?!
Couldn’t he hear my voice?
Anyway, he looks like Kurogane-san.
~
Woman: I told you it was dangerous, but even so you wouldn’t listen.
Child: I can already climb trees this high!
Besides, this is Haha-ue’s precious possession!
Mother: That’s right.
Thankyou.
~
?: Because it’s something I gave you.
Syaoran: Kurogane-san?!
~
Child: Chichi-ue!
Syaoran: Chichi-ue?!
Mother: Welcome home.
Child: Welcome home, Chichi-ue!
Father: Naughty boy as usual, our son.
Syaoran: There’s no scar on his left hand…
~
Child: I’m not a kid!
Father: Saying that and getting mad is just proof you’re a kid.
Child: I’m not!
Mother: How were they? Everyone in the territory.
Father: They were well. I heard the rice harvest this year is good. The rice balls they gave me were delicious.
We were able to suppress the monsters that appeared on the territory boundaries.
Mother: Well done.
~
There is a field near the boundaries where you can get grass that becomes medicine. It’s probably safe to go and pick it.
Father: There are places here in Suwa, Nihon-koku where medicinal grass grows, so for that reason other territories aim at us, and also…
In Nihon-koku, there are also troublesome things we call monsters.
But, my wife is a brilliant miko.
~
?: Suwa is protected by the kekkai made by the mistress.
Mother: But my strength isn’t perfect. There’s no way I can spread a large kekkai like the princess of Nihon-koku’s Shirasagi Castle…
Father: It’s enough to protect Suwa for us. Besides, on the off chance someone manages to get inside the territory
That’s what I’m here for.
~
Child: I’m here too!
Father: Oh?
Child: I’ll protect Suwa too!!
Father: You aren’t even big enough to climb to the top of that tree yet.
Child: I can too climb it!
Father: I bet you can’t.
Child: I can too!
?: Young master!
Father: Our son is just like a monkey, isn’t he.
~
Mother: He’s just like you when you were young.
Father: I’m still young.
Syaoran: What’s happening? They called this Nihon-koku earlier.
That’s definitely the country Kurogane-san was in.
So in that case, have I moved to Kurogane-san’s world?
Father: Che, don’t let go!
Syaoran: So who is this person who looks like Kurogane-san?
And that child...
~
Child: Crap! If I don’t get back quickly I won’t make the promise I made with Haha-ue!
Haha-ue is always smiling, but she’s scary when she gets mad! Unreasonable!
Syaoran: So they really can’t see me. And when the pages of this book turn over…
The setting changes?!
Maybe
This is
The world inside the book?!
