Chapter 886 - A Traveling Thunder Carries Them

The Sakura Thunder Express, a shimmering silver serpent, sliced through the verdant tapestry of Sakura Abode Country. Sunlight, as warm and welcoming as a grandmother's embrace, glinted off its polished flanks, painting fleeting rainbows across the impossibly blue sky. Below, fields of vibrant emerald rice paddies unfurled like meticulously crafted silk scrolls, dotted with the delicate blush of cherry blossoms, typical of the season of blossoms. The train's passage was like a thunder coming to announce the rain; after all, the train travelled at a high speed of over 600 km/h. But as the thunder passed, the rain didn't come, and the gentle rustle of leaves continued, the distant chirping of unseen birds, the faint hum of pure, unadulterated forward momentum.
