Chapter 259 - Country of Sakura, Cherin and Seven Holy Swords [30]259. Country of Sakura, Cherin and Seven Holy Swords [30]
Under Rose’s guidance, we flew through the sky and arrived at Bacchus-san’s home in less than ten minutes.
「Oo, this is a great house.」
As I stated my impression,
「You can’t see a mansion with this powerful vibe in Vesteria!」
「C-Cool… It’s looks magnificent!」
Ria and Lilim-senpai followed.
Towering in front of us is a large wooden bungalow.
However, it’s style, presence, and atmosphere is remarkably different from the ones we saw in the townscape of Cherin.
Thick black pillars which assert presence and exude the strength of nature.
A huge, majestic gate of Bacchus-san’s size.
Moreover, the Hundred Million-Year Sakura is in full bloom right in front of us.
You couldn’t hope for a better view than this.
This house is sure to be the pride of Bacchus-san.
「Fuu, I’m glad everyone likes it. This is the house my family has been living in for generations. It’s said that this house has been standing for slightly over a thousand years since construction.」

Hearing Rose’s explanation, everyone gasped.
「Aa, yes. But, it feels so nostalgic. It’s been five years since I left this house.」
She gently patted the pillar of the house with a hint of nostalgia in her eyes.

「Grandfather, I’m back.」
Rose opened the front door, and called out.
「Oh, I’ve been waiting for you. Come to the living room!」
Bacchus-san’s loud voice replied from the back of the house.
Then we walked down the long corridor following Rose, and she opened the horizontal door at the end.
A spacious living room of more than 20 tatami mats spread out.
「Barararara, you’ve come! You’re the first friends Rose has brought home. I have to welcome you all grandly!」
Sitting in a king-sized chair at the back of the room, Bacchus-san cheerfully gulped down a sake bottle.
(By welcome, “this” is what he means, isn’t it?)
A large amount of sake bottles and side dishes were arranged on a long rectangular table in the centre of the room.
「U-Umm… This is……?」
「Sake and side dish.」
「…Right.」
That much is obvious just by looking at it.
「I’ve eaten and drank all kinds of things in life. A meat which costs 100 thousand gold per gram. A sake which costs 1 million gold per cup. However, the best sake is undoubtedly the one thousand gold cheap sake from my hometown. Come on now, don’t hesitate! Barararara!」
Bacchus-san told his story in a good mood, and laughed heartily.
「Haa… Grandfather, have you gone senile already? We’re still underage, you know?」
「Nn? Don’t be boring! I was just a little boy when I drank my firs–」
「No means no.」
Rose said, and quickly collected the sake bottles lined up on the table.
「Ro-Rose… Drinking sake is one of the few pleasures that grandpa has. Can’t you please overlook it this time?」
「Haa… You are already old, so please take good care of your body.」
She refused flatly.
「N-Noooo!」
Rose snatched the sake bottle in Bacchus-san’s hand.
(Ahaha, they are really close.)
That giant of a man looked like an ordinary grandfather at that moment.

「Gununu, it’s been a long time since we reunited, and yet… she’s harsh as usual.」
Bacchus-san complained, and chomped on a thick salami which was on the desk.
「I’m sorry, everyone. I’ll make some tea right away, so sit down and wait for a while.」
Rose said so, and left the living room holding a large number of sake bottles.
A few seconds later,
「Alright, she’s gone.」
Bacchus-san smiled suspiciously as if “just as planned”.
「I want to show you all a special “treasure”.」
He said, brimming with confidence. And took out a thick book from the cupboard.
「What is that?」
「Let me tell you. This is the most precious thing in the world.」
Bacchus-san patted the book gently while exhaling deeply.
Apparently, that book is considerably precious.
「Fuu… All right, I’ll open it.」
He took a few deep breaths and adjusted his emotions, and then slowly turned open the cover.
「T-This is…!?」
「Fufu, are you surprised? This is a picture of Rose celebrating her third birthday. She’s as cute as an angel, isn’t she?」
There was a picture of an unbearably cute Rose smiling in front of her birthday cake.
