Adventures of Shii (2)
“Sakuya, this way?” (Shii)
“Iuooh!” (Sakuya)
Having contacted Yuki, Shii went in the direction Sakuya wanted, feeling relieved.
The hustle and bustle of the town was getting further away.
Even though it was daytime, the road was dimly lit with almost no sunlight.
Even though they had just strayed from the main road, there were almost no people passing by, and they didn’t pass anyone.
It felt as if they had entered another world, and Shii was somehow excited.
“Hmm, this is getting fun! Sakuya, we’re going down an intersection road! Which way do we go?” (Shii)
“Iwoo, aiii!” (Sakuya)
“This way! Alright!” (Shii)
Sakuya wanted to go down one of the roads that was leading straight ahead.
Shii hummed as she pushed the stroller energetically – after a while, she noticed something strange.
She detected some kind of magic.
A strange magical sensation enveloped Shii’s body, as if she had stepped into some kind of realm.
“Sakuya, perhaps...” (Shii)
“Auuu!” (Sakuya)
As Shii thought, Sakuya stretched his body as much as he could, as if he wanted to go to the end of the tunnel, so she decided to step inside the tunnel.
–She didn’t realize until the very end that there was no tunnel there... in fact.
The rattling sound of the stroller echoed.
The tunnel was longer than she had thought, and just as Shii was starting to think it was long, she finally reached the other side.
The other side of the tunnel was a different world.
Silence.
Sunlight streamed in, and greenery swayed in the breeze.
A well-maintained stone road. It was cracked in places, probably from the passage of time, but it was clear that it had been cleaned nicely.
A stream flowed right beside the road, and at the end was a beautiful pond with a bridge over it, where fish could be seen swimming.
It seemed to be surrounded on all four sides by some kind of building wall, but the area was filled with trees, making it difficult to see.
–What spread out before her was a beautiful and elegant garden that could be described as a secret miniature garden.
