After finishing singing the short song, Marcus loosened his stern face and smiled.

"It was a good tone, it was a pleasant singing."

"This one is worth playing." It's a good voice that resounds deeply. That bard, he was a good performer, but he drank too much firewood (whiskey), and his voice sounded dull. "

In my light joke, Marcus looked up at the sky and laughed out loud.

At first sight, I thought it might seem harsh, but people don't know what they look like.

"No, no, I'm afraid not. I miss the singing of that song in the mountains."

Around Marcus, who spoke brightly, the children who had been waiting for her earlier gathered as if they had cut the weir.

"Wow! Don't sing, Sensei Marcus!"

“Where were you singing? Hey, hey ~"

"Oh, oh..."

I wonder if I'm not used to the kids, but everyone boils down to Marcus, who scratches his head and says, "When I was a kid, I went to the choir."

As they answered a number of questions, the children gathered separately and began to show off their out-of-tune songs.

If you see someone who looks good, it makes sense for a child to want to imitate them.

……

When I suddenly turned my gaze towards the door, I saw a figure that looked at me —— a girl who immediately retracted her body.

"That's..."

"...... Luna?"

Marcus notices my little murmur.

With no one in sight, he looked toward the open door and saw what the girl was doing.

"That girl should also come to mix things..." For us who have benefited from the "Sun Goddess Religion" and live with its power, the Sun Goddess is the foundation of everyone's heart and a sense of fellowship that we can share. I want you to believe in me as much as you can. "

But you don't force me to say that, do you?

"The sun goddess clearly wrote that while telling you to observe the doctrine, you must not exclude those who do not observe the doctrine." We can't go against that. ”

The chapter is certainly there.

It is also written not before the story of the gods begins in a narrative form, but before preaching to people as a doctrine.

Moreover, it seems that after preaching the whole doctrine, it is written again.

Now that I know Shivira-san, I know why.

May men cooperate, but do not exclude men by reason of their gods.

It doesn't make you great just because you're in line with Goddess Church.

I definitely don't want to imitate myself as a tool to look down on someone--that's what they think.

It is a goddess that is more human than human.

Considering Marcus' inner self, it's not just superficially harsh, it's probably Luna's vision for the future.

"Oh, I think it's okay to have such a child."

Mr. Mirabelle mixed up in my conversation with Mr. Marcus.

Mirabelle is like Marcus of her age, and her eyes are always narrowly closed.

"Mirabelle, I would say that, but she won't be able to stay that way forever. When she grows up, she's the one who struggles.”

"I think you just need to go to someone who can accept it." With one of them around, you don't have to have anyone to help you. "

Mr. Mirabelle is relatively tolerant.

I think there's a good reason for both claims.

Real problems don't work like computational problems.

Even with knowledge, there are many problems that don't get to the right answer.

“If that's the case, there's one real-world example.”

Huh? I wonder what it is.

"Russell is getting along by accepting Luna. Look, the black hair."

……

Mirabelle opened her thin eyes for a few seconds and looked at me in silence.

Can I help you?

Marcus asks a question that somehow stops him from responding.

"... ah, no, no... nothing." I'm not surprised that there was someone who accepted Luna. "

“If someone showed up, it would be Mirabelle.”

"That's right."

Mirabelle must have been a hopeful observation.

Maybe Mirabelle didn't think at all that someone would accept the idea of a "dark hero".

What would you think if you found out the truth about Rachel?

—— It's also interesting to think about questions that don't have the right answers.

Although there are correct answers to reproducing the scores of existing songs, there should be no definite correct answers to the superiority or inferiority of the music for those who compose it.

I still don't know the right answer to the question of where people are.

Seeking such things without a correct answer lies ahead of knowledge.

The world is sure to be interesting.

Again, I snip my fingers at the harp.

Some children who are interested in music sit in front of me again in silence.

I'm still in the practice phase, so it's a long way from getting an audience, but it's a good thing I'm interested.

Unexpectedly, one of these girls might become a bard in the future...

"I'm ready to eat ~"

Frederica called out to the boys who were running around in the yard outside, and a buzzing voice stopped, and soon a footstep was heard inside the building.

Is it such a time already?

While concentrating and practicing, you seem to have lost track of time.

I concentrated on something other than reading for a long time.

Harp, it's deep and really interesting.

Marcus saw the child outside, and Mirabelle saw the child in the room, so the children headed to the cafeteria, led by Mirabelle.

Frederica also came to this room, embarrassed by the running boys.

"I could hear it all the time while cooking. When did you get that kind of skill?"

"At some point, when I was told, I just touched it yesterday. If you dare to say it, it's a stunt based on book knowledge.”

"... looking at Janet-chan, I have a little doubt about one of the thoughts of 'practice and experience are better than knowledge'..."

No, the idea itself is not wrong.

I'm certainly more familiar with harp than people who don't know anything.

It is also more likely to have a tone than a bard.

But it's really hard to play smoothly.

I can't react, even if I know where to play what sounds.

On the contrary, even if you can't read the score and get the pitch, anyone can play if you memorize the order.

This means that iterative practice is better in the field of playing than knowledge.

... well, in a way, this memorization can be called "learning knowledge".

"Even if you know which string to play next, your body won't react. I didn't think it would be so difficult until I actually took it. While everyone is out, I think I'll practice for a while.”

"Fufu, you've had so much fun cooking."

Frederica laughed happily, and Madeleine called Frederica from the dining room table.

Right, let's go to dinner without talking about it.

I think Frederica's cooking got better when she came here.

It may be that the environment for cooking is ready, or that the ingredients sold are unique to the capital.

Amy seems to be jealous when she asks.

During the meal, Madeleine and I met a little, but in the end we didn't have a conversation.

If you have something to say, don't hesitate to tell me... but imagining how you feel over there, it's not going to be that easy.

I hope that eventually you'll start talking to me aggressively from the other side...

Rachel and the others were strong.

If you dive into the dungeon, you'll go to the bottom floor.

Then it might be a night or a little later to come back.

It's a corner, so let's concentrate on harp practice from noon.

I thought so, and I took the musical instrument that I had put in my case and moved to the same room as in the morning.

"Oh, you're so enthusiastic about practice!" Do you think it would have been more meaningful if I had stayed and watched Janet practice? "

There was Shibira-san there for some reason.

Well, Russell and Emmy were also coming back.

Even when they dived into the King's City dungeon, they didn't look too good either.

I'm also concerned about Shibira-san's behavior earlier.

It didn't seem like a very interesting exploration... but that's why I'm worried.

Looks like we need to talk about this a little bit.
