Umi Ep. 23: The Relaxation Tournament Begins!
Umi is shocked by the sudden announcement of a relaxation tournament. Despite not being too sure of what it actually means, she forges ahead with the preparations. What happens on the day of the event?
Emma
My, this is lovely weather!
Umi
Indeed! Nothing but clear blue skies for our relaxation tournament, as it should be.
Player
What should we go see first?
Umi
Here is where I direct you to this travel guide! By referencing this, we will be able to visit every animal here, even with such limited time at our disposal.
Emma
Oooh, that's amazing!
Player
“9:28, guinea pigs, 9:35, alpacas, 9:42, goats”…Wait, the schedule's THAT precise?!
Umi
Why, of course. If we fall even a moment behind, it'll become nearly impossible to catch up. So we must hurry!
Emma
Umi, don't you think it might be better if we were a little more laid-back about all of this?
Umi
Would it? I made sure to allow for some time at each and every animal…
Umi
Could it be that this guide…may actually prevent us from relaxing?
Player
Well…
| Option 1: “Maybe we could do away with the time limit.” |
|---|
| Player Since it's a relaxation tournament, it's probably fine to keep things less scheduled. Umi I see. Then we'll spend our time without planning it out. |
| Option 2: “It's a little much.” |
| Player I think it's a little much. I'd prefer enough wiggle room in the schedule that we'd be able to catch up if we'd needed to. Umi Good point… Going a little more slowly might be for the best. |
Umi
It's clear that I must learn more about how to take things easy. Emma, please spend the day teaching me everything you know about relaxation!
Emma
Gladly! Okay, today I'll show you how a relaxation tournament is done!
Player
So, since it's supposed to be a relaxation tournament, why don't we start by getting some ice cream and wandering around while we eat?
Umi
Whaaat?! Are you sure we should be taking it so easy right away?!
Emma
Hee hee. Of course it is!
[Fade in/out.]
Player
Mmm…! This ice cream is delicious!
Umi
*Munch* It has a rich flavor with a pleasant aftertaste… It's very tasty!
Emma
Yep. It's buono!
Umi
The air feels so fresh too. It's a lovely location.
Umi
So this is what it means to relax… I never would have imagined that such means of enjoying oneself existed.
Umi
Still, I feel that now I can slightly better appreciate this sort of leisure activity.
Emma
*Chuckle* So you've learned how to relax for yourself, Umi?
Player
Great job, Umi! …Hm? What's that sign for?
Emma
Um… “This way to the hiking course,” it says.
Umi
Did you say “hiking course”?!
