The spirit tree bloomed cherry blossoms, and a conscious body was born in a rather hasty manner. I think too many things have happened so soon after my return, but it's a happy occasion, so let's rejoice. Tonight we are going to have a party at the cherry blossom viewing party.

So tonight we're going to have a hanami (cherry-blossom viewing) party. Gina, Sarah, please help us.

"Okay."

Yes, I will help you.

"Ruby and the kids will be cooking, too."

"I know what I'm doing! We have souvenirs from the labyrinth city, so we have to cook a lot of food!"

Well, I don't think we need to cook that much this time, since there are only a few of us. .......

"Nomos. Do you think the spirits of the brewery will join us for the cherry blossom viewing?"

"Hmmm... ...... they're probably not leaving the brewery because they're too busy researching the new brewing method Yuta taught them."

Oh, they have already started researching new drinks. It's only natural that those spirits would not hesitate to try new drinks when they know about them. But then, the number of participants in the Hanami party would not be that large.

Looking at Ruby and the others, they seem pretty motivated. If I tell them that I only need a little bit of food, they're not going to be very excited. I should ask them to cook as much as they can for now and put it in storage. Before we start cooking, let's give them some of the ingredients we've brought back.

"Master, will you take care of me and Kikka too?"

"Berrutarumatu..."

......The little army wants to help, too. We'd love to have your help with serving food and stuff, but we don't have any work right now.

"Well, Marco and Kikka, please help Gina and Sara. Belle and the others will help you later, but first tell Sakura about paradise."

Well, Sakura is a spirit tree too, so I'm sure she knows about this paradise, but it would be fun to look around directly if she has created a conscious body.

"Whoa! I'll teach you belle! Belle!"

Perhaps the word "teach" has touched Belle's heartstrings, because she is extremely excited, and her arms and legs are flailing around in the most amazing ways. Come to think of it, she has been guiding the little spirits who come to visit Paradise as a big sister.

I'm not sure if it's because I'm worried about ...... the word "big sister" because it reminds me of a certain water spirit, but I believe that ...... Belle will grow up to be a fine adult. I really believe in you.

I really believe in you. I'll take good care of you."

"Okay."

With my trust in her, she flies over to Rain and the others with great enthusiasm, explaining about her job. Sakura is clinging to ...... Tamamo as he explains the job to her, feeling the fluff all over her body. Oh, she started to ham Tamamo's ears.

Tamamo doesn't seem to dislike it. Well, Sakura is a spirit tree consciousness and Tamamo is a forest spirit, so let's think that they are compatible with each other.

I'm a little more worried about Tulu who is staring at Tamamo and Sakura. Normally he would listen to Bell's words, but now he doesn't seem to even hear them.

Tamamo and Sakura are so cute because they are like a baby fox and a baby fox. But in Tulu's case, she might be jealous of Sakura, since she's so fascinated by Fluffy Fluffy. Oh, Tulu is on the move. Should I stop him?

......Good. He wasn't jealous. Apparently, Tulu seemed to be interested in the way Sakura was fondling her, and started to seriously tell Sakura that Tamamo likes to be stroked like this.

Maybe Tulu is trying to lead Sakura down the fluffing path. It will be hard to get out of that fluffy stuff once she gets into it from a baby. In a way, it might be the devil's work.

"Okay, I'm coming!"

Oh, Belle grabbed Sakura and Tamamo and flew away. Both Tulu and Sakura were so absorbed in the discussion about fluffy fluffy fluffy that they looked surprised at Belle's sudden action.

Belle was trying her best to explain the situation to them, so she must have thought that they understood her. In this case, who is at fault? ......Well, okay, I was a little surprised, but I'm already jumping around with excitement. No point in dwelling on the details.

Well, while Bell and the others are showing Sakura around, I'd better make sure I'm ready for Hanami. Huh? Sakura eats food too, right?

He's newborn, so he needs milk ...... He looks a little bigger than a baby, so is he on baby food? If I talk to Ruby, will she do something about it?

Well, I think they had little teeth. Besides, baby floating spirits eat rice normally, so they might be able to eat normally. I'll check this too.

******

"Wow, this is nice."

Oh, Sylphy seems to be happy. It was worth the effort. But all I did was to float many light balls among the branches of the spirit tree with everyone's help.

But it is mysterious to see the spirit tree with huge cherry blossoms in full bloom, glowing gently in the darkness.

I thought of floating a colored light ball that I saw in the downtown of Beryl Kingdom, but it was the right choice to float a simple ordinary light ball this time. The colors of the cherry blossoms are well reflected.

"I'm glad you liked it. So, why do you already have a jock? We're not done getting ready yet, are we?"

All the Great Spirits except Sylphy have already chilled their home-brewed ales with ice and have their own mugs. They are all ready to drink. They can't wait to have a drink, saying how nice it is. Dumplings are better than flowers....... No, in the case of Sylphy and the others, it's alcohol rather than flowers.

"Hmmm...Hanami is to drink delicious sake while looking at beautiful cherry blossoms...isn't it? We're just preparing ourselves for it."

...... He pours a mug full of ale and holds it firmly in his right hand, so he is perfectly prepared for the banquet. It's hard for me to know how to react since he is waiting for us to finish our preparations without drinking.

Should I call this being polite or should I tell her to drink already if she's going that far? ...... No, she's simply putting pressure on me to drink as soon as possible. I think Deanne is about to sip from her mug at any moment. Let's hurry.

"Yuta's brother, we've already laid out the food!"

They didn't need to rush, they finished the preparations while I was talking to them. You guys are hard workers.

"Okay, thank you. Hey, guys! Come back here when the food is ready!

They call out to Belle, Fukuchan, and Sakura, who are hopping around the spirit tree in a loud voice.

"Gohan!" "Queue!" "Ohanami!" "Coo!" "Kuze!" ......"""Ho"""Pugyu!""" Wahoo!""" ......""eat""

They were so excited to see the illuminated spirit tree that they were flying around, but they came back in an instant. They seem to be more interested in dumplings than flowers.

"Sakura, here! Belle is my baby girl!"

Belle leads Sakura next to me. It seems that Belle is going to take care of Sakura as a big sister.

"Ah!"

Sakura, who had been gawking at the food on the table, responded cheerfully to Belle's voice and flew over to us in a huff. While preparing for the banquet, they seem to have become good friends.

Let's see, the cherry blossoms have bloomed beautifully today, so we'll have a cherry blossom viewing party together with a welcome party for the cherry blossoms. The table over there is for drinking, so please keep away from the little ones.

After giving the warning, we all raise our glasses in a toast and begin to watch the cherry blossoms.

"Sakura, I'm going to eat this!

As soon as the cherry blossom viewing started, Belle immediately recommended her favorite dish to Sakura. Dolly told me that Sakura could eat the same food as we usually do. But you don't have to recommend a big hunk of meat, there is meat cut into pieces on the side, right?

"Ai!"

And Sakura, don't take a bite of the meat without any hesitation. It's bigger than your head, so you should hesitate a little. And a spirit tree is a plant. Dolly had told me about it, but it's not like it's a plant that takes a bite out of your meat.

Oh, but there are also insectivorous plants, so is it possible to eat meat? In fact, vegetables may be more similar to cannibalism, since they are in the same category.

"Yum!"

Sakura is reporting to Belle, munching happily. She said it was delicious. And Belle is making a big smug face.

"Cu-cue!"

"Hmm? Oh, Rain, you want to eat those skewers. Wait a minute."

I'm worried about Sakura, but I have to take care of Rain and the others. I'm glad that Belle is taking care of Sakura. She takes off the skewers and passes them to Rain's plate.

"This is good too!"

This time, Flair offers Sakura a Neapolitan dish. She also wraps the pasta around a fork to make it easier to eat, and gives a big "ah-hah" to the pasta.

Flair is a bold if, but she notices the little details. It's hard to believe that she has been slumped over a bright red skewer.

Sakura bites down on the fork that Flair brings to her mouth and flaps her arms and legs to see if it tastes good.

"Is it good? Eat more!"

One after another, Flair rolls up the pasta with his fork and brings it to Sakura's mouth. Sakura also bites down on the forks one after another. They are like a parent and a baby bird.

"Sakura, eat this one too!""Cue!""This one is delicious too!""Coo!""......" 

......Bell again recommended the meat to Sakura, and Rain and the others followed suit, recommending their favorite dishes to Sakura. It seems that everyone wants to take care of Sakura, who is younger than they are now. Sakura, too, is eating one dish after another as recommended by Rain. It would be a worrisome sight if food were not plentiful.

"Um, Sakura, are you sure you can eat that much?"

"Au!"

After cheerfully replying to my question, Sakura again bites into the food offered by Bell and the others. At this rate, she seems to be doing all right. Well, I guess I'll have some food too. Come to think of it, I haven't seen any cherry blossoms since I've been watching Sakura.

Since we are going to see cherry blossoms, let's not only love the sakura but also love the cherry blossoms. ...... is a little complicated.
