子供のときにドラクエやRPGには熱中しましたね。四国への旅行では、途中、そのゲームデザイナである堀井雄二の出身地（兵庫県洲本市）にも行きました🤩車だと淡路島にも簡単に行けました🚗

ロトの剣と盾、スライムの記念碑、「そして伝説へ…」と刻まれた石碑で勇者になります。洲本には観光客があまりおらず、静かに聖地巡礼ができました😎この街、もっとドラクエで売り出せそうですね。

色々と四国の城も見て周りましたが、私にはドラクエの方が歴史の人物より身近です。堀井雄二は早稲田の文学部出身なのですね。物語を作れる人は強く、文学は実学だと思っています（法学や経済学の方がより実学ですが）✍️文学の力は目に見えにくいけれど、現に私が呼び込まれてしまってますしね 😊

I was really into Dragon Quest and RPGs as a child. During my trip to Shikoku, I also visited Sumoto City in Hyogo Prefecture, the hometown of game designer Yuji Horii🤩 By car, I could easily get to Awaji Island too🚗

I became a hero with Loto’s sword and shield, the Slime monument, and the stone monument inscribed with “And into legend…”. There weren’t many tourists in Sumoto, so I could enjoy a quiet pilgrimage to this sacred site😎 This town could promote itself more through Dragon Quest, don’t you think?

I visited various castles around Shikoku, but Dragon Quest feels more familiar to me than historical figures. I learned that Yuji Horii graduated from Waseda University’s literature department. People who can create stories have great power, and I believe literature has practical value (though law and economics are considered more practical)✍️. The power of literature may not be visible, but it clearly drew me here myself😊
