The high-end café we're planning to visit this time is located in the same area where we bought formal wear for both the Six Kings Festival and Mitsunaga-kun's wedding. The surrounding area is lined with stores frequented by nobles, and even the streets are beautifully paved with cobblestones, giving the whole area a luxurious atmosphere.

It might feel like the high-end shopping district of Ginza… That said, I've never actually been to Ginza, so it's just entirely based on my imagination……

[This street isn’t somewhere we come often huh.]

[That’s truuuuue. As most of the things here are luxury iteeeeems, it’s not a place people can just casually stroll throuuuuugh. It’s the kind of plaaaaace where someone decides on a store or what they're going to buy before they cooooooooome.]

[Ahh~~ I can see that. The atmosphere doesn't quite fit for window shopping, the kind of place you come to with something specific you'd want to purchase in mind.]

You don’t have to buy something just because you enter this area, but there’s definitely that aura of luxury that makes this place feel less approachable.

In reality, these stores mostly cater to the wealthy, and it might actually be better if window shoppers didn’t wander in, as it helps maintain the store’s atmosphere.

[Kaito-samaaaaaa, if we walk a little further, we’ll come across the site where Nifty’s store is being buiiiiiilt. Since we’re heeeeere, would you like to take a looooook?]

[Oh, that sounds good. We can slightly adjust the route to the café to pass by it.]

By coincidence, if we take a small detour on the way to the café, we can see the planned site for Nifty’s store. Canalis-san is building it, so it will take less than a day to construct. Apparently, she’ll be adjusting the interior with Anima and Caraway before putting it up.

When we arrived at the planned site after a short walk, we found a large open space. The royal castle is clearly visible, and while it’s near a major road, it’s slightly away from the main path for carriages, making it a perfect spot.

[……This is quite the location. The position is really eye-catching, and the surrounding scenery is beautiful.]

[Yeeeees, it seems they found a very good spooooot.]

[Right. By the way, I heard Illness-san has been making various things with Nebula. How’s that been going recently?]

[Weeeeell, lately we've been discussing trying our hand at glasswooooork.]

[Glasswork huh…… That sounds impressive.]

After working with wood and ceramics, it seems their next project is glass. With Illness-san and Nebula working together, they’d surely create something amazing. Glass cups would be nice too. For things like iced tea or other cold drinks, glass containers seem to fit perfectly. If they end up with any extra, I’d love to use one.

[We haaaaad talked about making glass products befooooore, but it requires a lot of spaaaaace, and the production process can release harmful substanceeeeees, so making them in the backyard would be difficuuuuuult. But noooooow, Canalis-san has offered to create a dedicated space for iiiiiiit, so we’re discussing it with Nebulaaaaaa.]

[I see. Canalis-san can definitely create a space for production. That opens up possibilities for creating larger items that you might’ve given up on before, which really expands your horizons.]

[Kuhihi, that's riiiiiight. Creating something big could be fun tooooooo. Latelyyyyyy, crafting has really become a bit of a hobbyyyyy.]

[That's great. Everything you and Nebula make is incredible, and I’m always excited to see your creations.]

[I'm glad to hear thaaaaaat.]

Illness-san and Nebula often show me their creations or give them to me as gifts, so I’m really looking forward to it. Plus, both Illness-san and Nebula look like they're having a lot of fun, so just watching them makes me smile, and I think having such a hobby is a really good thing.

[By the way, if you could start making glass products, what would you like to create first, Illness-san?]

[Weeeeell, I think I'd like to make a vase fiiiiirst.]

[That sounds great. Glass vases are beautiful, and it would be nice to display the roses you love in one, Illness-san.]

[Yeeees. After I make the first vaaaase, I would like to give it to Kaito-sama along with roseeees, so would you accept iiiiiit?]

[Eh? Is it okay for me to receive your first creation?]

[Yeeees. I would looooove for Kaito-sama to be the first to receive it. Aaaaand……. The thouuuuught of making a vase while thinking of you, Kaito-sama, makes me very happyyyyyy.]

[I see…… In that case, if Illness-san is alright with it, that would be great.]

Seeing Illness-san smile so happily made me smile as well. How should I say this…… This might sound a bit selfish…… but now I feel even more excited for the day when Illness-san and Nebula start making glass products.


<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [……It's gonna be three, isn't it…… She'll give a vase with three roses in it…… D*mn it…… The future is sweet.]

? ? ? : ["The future is sweet"? Seriously, can you stop using weird expressions like that?]
