Umi Ep. 22: A Relaxation Tournament?!

With studying and practice, Umi is always doing something with no time to rest. After hearing that Umi finds relaxing a waste of time, Emma announces she will host a relaxation tournament!

Umi

Goodness, I just don't know…

Player

What's wrong, Umi?

Umi

What exactly does a relaxation tournament involve?

Emma

A relaxation tournament is a tournament where you relax!

Umi

Then when does it start and how do you clear the objective?

Emma

The objective? I don't know if there is one.

Umi

You say this, but a tournament must have an objective!

Emma

More importantly, I've brewed some tea so let's drink it together! I made Assam milk tea today!

Player

That's the Emma I know. She's so laid back that she's practically horizontal…

Umi

There's no way I can surpass Emma in terms of being relaxed! What should I do in the lead-up to the tournament?

Player

Hmm… Good question.

Player

I know! Why don't the three of us go to a farm to have a relaxation tournament?

Emma

Oooh! That sounds like fun!

Umi

Could it be that you already have an understanding of what a relaxation tournament entails?!

Player

I wouldn't say that I understand it, but I figured it can't hurt to go somewhere with a relaxing atmosphere.

Umi

In other words… When in Rome, do as the Romans do?

Umi

If that is the case, then I must act now! I will start preparations at once!

Emma

Preparations?

[Fade in/out.]

Umi

There. Done.

Player

What did you borrow from the library, Umi?

Umi

An illustrated reference book on animals and a travel guidebook. I was thinking of putting together our own little travel guide.

Emma

Huh? But all we're doing is going to the farm to relax.

Umi

We won't be able to relax if an issue were to arise in the act of relaxing.

Umi

I will also do my utmost best in taking on the challenge to relax!

Emma

Taking on the challenge to…relax?!

Player

Umi…

Option 1: “You don't have to put so much effort into this.”

Player

You really don't have to put so much effort into this.

Umi

But these were the only things that came to mind when you mentioned relaxing.

Option 2: “I love how you're always you.”

Player

I'm a little surprised by all of this, but I love how you're always you in everything you do.

Umi

You do?

Emma

Hmm…

Umi

Emma, am I mistaken in my methods?

Emma

I was taken aback because I didn't think you needed to prepare so much… But being prepared means you might be able to put your mind at ease and actually relax!

Emma

I think that what you've done is really great in your own special way. Let's relax together!

Umi

Emma… Thank you very much!

Umi

I'm starting to look forward to this relaxation tournament a little more now!
