NOVEL NEXT Consequence of fireworks
Pov Dia
Inari: "You could have warned me more than 2 minutes in advance of what you were going to do."
Dia: "It wasn’t part of the program to do that, but we thought we were missing something significant to close."
Inari: "It was striking. It was a real mess, and people panicked. The gods even wondered if they were being attacked."
It was the day after the festival, and Inari, after spending all that time calming the situation, came to me angry.
Inari: "I understand that something grandiose is needed to conclude the festival. But you could have waited at least a year until I had told everyone that something like that would happen."
Dia: "I’m glad you’re so understanding, Inari."
Inari: "You know what I just said was only 5% of my true feelings. The rest is the urge to hang you by the neck for pissing me off all night."
Dia: "I’m sorry again. Now you know, because next year I’m doing what I just did, but better."
Inari: "At least you already warned me, that’s the main thing. Now, I couldn’t enjoy your show except for the noise and the consequences. Could you show me what you did?"
I did what I had done the night before but on a smaller scale.
Inari: "It’s a little too crimson. Could you try to make it another color?"
Dia: "One thing at a time. I’m already working on the intensity and rhythm of the explosions so that it’s more of a show."
Combined with my one-handed swords, spears, music, and runes, my next years will be full.
After this discussion with Inari, I went back to Sera and Rimuru.
Sera: "She didn’t yell at you too much, did she? Sorry, it was my fault."
Dia: "We’re all to blame. I should have thought about the consequences of this technique for others instead of being so eager to give you an unspeakable end of date."
Sera: "Now that the festival is over, what do we do? A new date?"
Dia: "I wouldn't say no, but we still need to train. So, Rimuru, we will try to find a master of the katana for you."
Rimuru: "It will surely be a samurai."
Dia: "Yes, but I also want you to learn shinobi skills."
Rimuru: "I don’t think a samurai would want to teach someone without honor."
Dia: "Just don’t mix the two fighting styles. Or don’t mention that you’re also learning shinobi style. Or we can use our power to lure a samurai into teaching you. There’s so much we could try."
Sera: "And you, Dia-chan, what are you going to do?"
Dia: "I think I’ll learn to master a naginata."
Rimuru: "As expected from Dia-sama, no normal weapon use."
Dia: "The bow is a normal weapon."
Rimuru: "Should I remind you of the snake design that bites its tail? In addition, the techniques you use are as unusual as a technique for a bow."
Dia: "I give up. I’m fried. But at the same time, I prefer to be weird because the weapon I use is more awesome."
Rimuru: "I didn’t want to criticize you. On the contrary, your unusual fighting style is part of your charm."
Dia: "I wish I could keep flirting with you, but we’d be forgetting Sera. So what are you going to do?"
Sera: "I would practice better ice control by going to a polar zone and trying to understand the very essence of ice."
Dia: "Trying to change your ice cream or what?"
Sera: "No, but understanding the very essence of this element will make me stronger."
Kurama: "Sorry to interrupt your conversation, but in the Chinese empire, there is a technique called cultivation that would be perfect for..."
Author: "Hold on, cultivation does not exist in this world. Now back to the past.”
Dia: "Trying to change your ice cream or what?"
Sera: "No, but understanding the very essence of this element will make me stronger."
Dia:" Anyway good luck with your understanding of ice."
