Daikoku: (I was supposed to get the lucky item while looking at the exhibition with Nikkachi today...why did things turn out like this...)

Nikako: That Cleopatra statue from earlier was so wonderful...! Was the real Cleopatra as beautiful as that statue...!

Ramona: I wonder. It was so long ago that there's no photos.

Ramona: But to have such a beautiful statue made, she must have been truly beautiful.

Lilja: If she wasn't, people wouldn't remember her for so long. As I thought, beauty is eternal...

Daikoku: (I never expected to accidentally meet people from Gingaza...! And I never thought I'd end up going around together with them...)

Daikoku: (Surrounded by such cheerful people...what am I supposed to do...)

Ramona: Are you alright, Daikoku?

Daikoku: Eh...!? D-Da-Da...Dai...

Ramona: Sorry, was it rude to suddenly call you by name? But I wasn't sure what to call you...

Daikoku: N-No...I don't mind...

Ramona: I see! Then that's good!

Ramona: More importantly, you've seemed down since earlier-are you feeling unwell...? Or maybe you're tired from walking around so much...

Nikako: Is that it!? Sorry for not noticing!!! Da-chan, are you okay...?

Daikoku: No, um...I'm...

Lilja: If you're tired, would you like to go to the sand bath with us? I'm planning to go with Ramo after this.

Nikako: Wow, a sand bath! That sounds great! It seems relaxing and like it would blow away all the fatigue!

Ramona: But we should eat before that. Entering a hot sand bath on an empty stomach wouldn't be good for your health.

Ramona: Wasn't there a food court somewhere around here?

Nikako: Hmm...I don't see anything like that-

Daikoku: ...Ah!!!

Nikako: Huh!? Da-chan!? Where are you going!?

Daikoku: I-I found it...the Sphinx keychain...! The four-legged guardian deity...!

Ramona: Oh, merchandise from this exhibition. Could it be that Daikoku was down because she couldn't find that?

Nikako: Ohhh, so that's what it was~! I'm glad you're not feeling sick~!

Lilja: Then we can go to the sand bath right away...?

Daikoku: Heh heh heh...

Nikako: Ah, Da-chan is smiling!

Daikoku: Eh!? I-I wasn't smiling...

Nikako: But I'm relieved! Da-chan, you didn't seem very energetic since we got here...I was worried I might have forced you to come.

Daikoku: Nikkachi...sorry, that's not it...

Daikoku: There were various reasons I seemed down, but...anyway, now that I found this lucky item, I'm fine...

Nikako: Really!? Then let's eat with Mona-san and Lilja-san, and then go to the sand bath!

Daikoku: Huh...?

Ramona: Yes, it's decided! Let's look for a nearby restaurant right away!

Lilja: With beautiful people, we can enhance each other's beauty...I'm really looking forward to it.

Daikoku: ...Haah...yes...

Daikoku: (This is why I'm not good with cheerful people...!)
