Chapter 1820: The Hero and the Set-Meal Restaurant ⑦
[Yes, Blossom-san is the Spirit of the Cherry Blossom Tree. Lillywood-sama heard about cherry blossoms from me and became interested in them, so she created new cherry blossom trees, which grow mainly in the Central Great Forest that Lillywood-sama governs.]
[Speaking of Blossom-san, she sure is fond of Japanese culture, isn\'t she?]
[She certainly is.]
From the somewhat subtle expression Neun-san has on her face at my words, it seems she also knows about Blossom-san\'s slightly deviated knowledge of Japan.
Arehh? But then, if Neun-san and Blossom-san are acquainted with each other It shouldn\'t be surprising for Neun-san to teach her the correct knowledge. I mean, from Blossom-san\'s perspective, Neun-san should be someone familiar with otherworld culture, so it wouldn\'t be strange for her to actively interact with Neun-san.
[What kind of person is Blossom-sama?]
[She\'s an honest and straightforward good person. Yes, there\'s no doubt about that However, umm, she can be a bit persistent with her own assumptions One she believes something is the truth, she tends to become very forward and may not listen to others and somehow, she firmly believes that I\'m "an otherworld enthusiast kindred just like her".]
[Eh? Is that so?]
[Yes, in fact, Blossom-san is younger than me, so she doesn\'t know me from when I was still Human. Perhaps that\'s why, even when I mentioned being a former otherworlder, she just perceived it as "my setting" Heck, she even responded with "What a coincidence! I\'m a Samurai too!" once.]
Yeah, I can somewhat picture that scene in my mind. That\'s right, Blossom-san is undeniably a good person with an honest and straightforward personality, but once she\'s convinced something is so, she can be a bit too single-minded.
I mean, she still thinks I\'m a "Samurai Master", and since my attempts to correct her won\'t reach her at all, Neun-san was probably pushed away by the same feeling.
[Well, in the first place, there\'s not really a precedent for someone like me who has transformed their body from a Human\'s to a Demon\'s or rather, from one species to another, so I can understand why she\'s got such a mindset.]
[Come to think of it, it may have skipped my mind from the shock of hearing you\'re the First Hero, but Neun-san did mention how you were reincarnated as a Demon I guess that must be something quite difficult?]
[Although it\'s an advanced technique, changing one\'s appearance and other characteristics isn\'t that difficult. However, transforming into a Demon while maintaining my human qualities like in my case, keeping my appearance exactly the same and only changing my body structure, is quite challenging. Since a being\'s magic power\'s wavelength varies depending on the species, it seems that without precise adjustments down to the smallest details, some abnormalities can occur during the transformation process. It\'s at a level where achieving it is possible only for those with deep magical knowledge and extremely precise magic power manipulation ability, much like Kuromu-sama.]
It seems that changing a person\'s race really is quite challenging. When she did talk about this to Lilia-san and the others, they were also quite surprised, and I can now understand why. However, from the way Neun-san was speaking, it seems that if one isn\'t fixated on a specific appearance or characteristic, doing that is quite possible.
However, that would mean there\'s a possibility you\'d end up looking like a monster, making people uncomfortable to do it
[It\'s especially more challenging when one attempts to do it by oneself. Altering one\'s own body runs the risk of failure with even the slightest error in the procedure or a slight misalignment in magic power manipulation Let\'s see. For example, if someone has Kaito-san\'s Sympathy Magic, which allows for "extremely precise understanding of magic power", combined with an "enormous amount of magic power", and Duchess Lilia\'s "exceptional talent", it might be possible for one to reincarnate into the desired species.]
[Speaking of which, there\'s the child named Eul Eulpecula in Isis-san\'s place, and she\'s trying to remake her own body I guess it must be risky huh?]
[Hmmm It depends on the extent of the transformation. If it\'s just altering the physical form, it might not be too difficult but well, if Isis-sama did give her her approval, then there shouldn\'t be any issues. Isis-sama is one of the foremost experts in magic power manipulation in the world, and with her profound knowledge, she, just like Kuromu-sama, could likely change the species of others. If it seems risky, she would undoubtedly intervene and advise against it.]
[I see, I\'m glad to hear that.]
I\'ve heard that Eul is studying hard with the goal of having the same form as me or Isis-san, so hearing Neun-san\'s story made me a bit uneasy, but indeed, with Isis-san overseeing her, she should be alright.
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [Come to think of it, Eulpecula is trying to remake her body, isn\'t she?]
? ? ? : [It seems like Eul is aiming to incorporate the strong points of Humans and Demons into her new body, striving to become a Demon with the growth potential of Humans. It seems she personally wants to inherit traits from both Kaito-san and Isis-san. As expected, achieving that would be quite challenging, and even if she has considerable talent nearing Lilia-san\'s level, she\'d be struggling, so she will probably have to take a few more years to achieve it.]
Serious-senpai : [Looking at it the other way though, that means she\'d be successful in a few years huh]
