Old Butler

Having my focus solely on calming my and Otoha’s nervousness, I’d only got a good look at our surroundings once the car stopped.

Looking ahead and to our side, the view felt like we arrived in the countryside with nary a huge building or establishment in sight. Apart from trees towering from a distance, giving shade to a lone house, I could also see rice fields on both sides with the rice stalks having just sprouted as well as some farmers already doing their job of taking care of it.

Our city still had places like this. But not so much anymore. Although I haven’t been to this place before, it was located on the north side of our city and at an elevated plain close to the mountainous region bordering another prefecture. Hence, the lack of visual eye candy that screams ‘modern’.
