The president, who held a paper cup in her hand, asked「Can I sit next to you?」while tilting her head adorably.
「Yeah, go ahead.」
I nodded, and brushed off the sakura petals scattered about on the picnic sheet with my hand.
「Fufu, thank you.」
She smiled happily and slowly sat down beside me.
「Nn… The sun feels really good. It is the perfect weather to view sakura blossoms.」
「According to the weather forecast, it’s going to be sunny all week from now on. We were able to come at a really good time.」
「I am sure everything is because Onee-san has been good recently.」
The president said, and nodded twice.
「Ahaha, you could say that.」
「Muu, you took that as a joke, didn’t you?」
「Haha, I wonder…」
After joking like that, we naturally looked up at the Hundred Million Years Sakura.
「It’s really beautiful, isn’t it…」
「Yes, it really is…」

「……」
「……」
Some time passed, and silence came between us.
However, it is not a suffocating nor uncomfortable silence.
We were looking up at the same sakura blossoms, feeling the same emotion, and sharing the same moment in time together.
It was such a very happy silence.
Then we both took a sip of the warm tea at the same time.
「「Fuu…」」
And exhaled at the same time.
「Fufu, stop imitating me, Allen-kun.」
「Ahaha, that’s my line.」
We laughed together happily.
「…But it really is really peaceful here.」
She whispered, while looking around the surroundings at other people who came to view sakura blossoms.
「Yes, it is. I just hope it’s not the “calm before the storm”.」
「Mou, don’t you say that kind of scary things.」
The president said, and elbowed my side.
「-Ouch, sorry.」
I smiled wryly and took another sip of the warm tea.
(But still, I wonder how things will turn out from here on.)
The international situation in recent years has never been more unstable.
In the newspapers and radio, you can read and hear the news regarding the Black Organization every day. And I have actually crossed swords with them many times.
(And above all, behind the scenes of this peaceful time there is a global-scale conference going on.)
According to the president, the leaders of each country such as Tenshi-sama and Rodis-san, as well as four of the “Seven Holy Swords”, the seven strongest swordsmen of humanity, will be attending.
And the agenda is ”Measures Against Holy Ronelia Empire”.
(Will we start a war with the Empire immediately, or will we see how things develop for a while, or will we set up another plan…)
In any case.
Right now, we’re in a situation where an “all-out war” between the Five Great Powers and the Holy Ronelia Empire could break out at any time.
(I have to become even stronger.)
Emperor Barrel Ronelia of the Holy Ronelia Empire who is shrouded in mystery.
The Emperor’s Four Knights, including Sebas-san.
Demon who can manipulate the fearsome power of “Curse” who joined hands with the Empire.
The enemy I am going to have to fight is much stronger than all I have faced before.

In order to do so, I have no choice but to continue swinging.
When I was thinking of that to myself,
「Allen-kun, would you like some tea?」
The president asked while holding the insulated bottle.
「Yes, thank you.」
I had her pour tea for me, and drank it while it was still warm.
「Aa…」
And when I exhaled white vapour,
「Fufu…」
The president, who was looking at me with a sidelong glance, laughed for some reason.
「Umm, what’s wrong?」
「No, sorry. I thought Allen-kun’s behaviour was like an old man.」
「Aa, I see… But maybe I really am an old man, you know?」
Although my real age is only 15 years old, my mental age is more than 1, 000, 000, 000 years old.
Far from being an old man, I have already stepped into the domain of “Hermit”.
「Mou, what are you talking about when you’re still younger than onee-san?」
「Ahaha, just a joke.」
After chatting with the president for a while, Ria and Rose joined in, and we all enjoyed the sakura blossom viewing together.
(Aa, if only this peaceful time would go on forever.)
I slowly sipped the warm tea while absorbed in such a deep emotion.
