And the last person I invited to dinner was Mr. Itsuki.

Through Miss Mayka, she was invited to a private dinner with the Lord's Hand.

Just in time, let's talk to the leader or the Consul.

... that noli of the guard and that smile of the maid.

If you don't talk to Mr. Itsuki properly, it's not strange that he's bleeding out. It sounds like a joke, but the chills running around my spine are real.

Well, that would be fine after dinner.

What a dinner at the Lords Hall. The yak chef also makes gems that emphasize quality over quantity.

It would be rude to try this carefully.

Jacques chef's special hamburger, apparently this time with a slightly lowered apple sauce. Exquisite sweetness and sourness. I feel that the ratio of pigs to cattle has also changed to match the sauce.

The aftertaste is really refreshing and I think I can eat as much as I want.

"Excellent, it's really delicious. Chef Yak has completely turned Hamburg into his own dish. Excellent arm and effort."

I nodded as many times as I could, eating as elegantly as I could, and I noticed a quiet thing that Miss Mayka next door did.

I usually celebrate the beauty of Jacques and Hamburg with me, but I'm eating quietly today.

It's as if you don't feel this wonderful taste. Absolutely strange.

"Micah?

What, Ash-kun?

My voice is hard. This is the voice of Miss Micah when she is nervous.

I haven't been familiar with Date for thirteen years. I can tell in one shot when I hear the voice.

It doesn't look like I'm feeling ill, so I'll let you know in a soft voice.

"I don't know what you're worried about, but please talk to me before you get too worried. It would be a waste to have a delicious meal."

"Uhh... do you understand?

"I know. But you're better at not expressing yourself."

If it weren't for the unnatural flavour of an exquisite hamburger, you might not have noticed. The hamburger is strong.

It seems that Miss Micah has also come to talk about boarding. When I write a thank-you letter, I will report it to the Yuika Goddess.

"Ash-kun is invincible."

Miss Micah, who was a shaved face, dropped her shoulders and sharpened her lips.

Looks like he's losing his strength, and he pours a sip of hamburger and laughs, "It's delicious."

"Yes, at this rate, let the Yak chef help us develop a culinary culture. We will also invest in agricultural improvement plans."

For the first time, people are devoted to quality because of the abundance of food.

People who have trouble eating tonight cannot improve their varieties for the next harvest. Eating to live is easy, but living to eat is difficult.

That is why we must promote agricultural improvement plans that support the foundation of food. I mean, I want to eat a delicious meal.

To do so, stay in the city peacefully.

When I glanced at Mr. Itsuki, I saw his eyes.

Looks like they were looking for a chance to cut something out.

"Ah, that's the thing, Ash."

Yes, what is it, Itsuki?

Stop eating and nod.

Itsuki also wetted his lips with wine and set himself up to talk.

"Wouldn't it be convenient to be in a city in order to proceed with the plan?

"That's right. I think so."

Rather, I don't think we can do it in the village.

"Mm-hmm. Even in my case, it's a very high-profile project, and I don't want to stop it any longer than I've done once. So, what do you think? Will you stay in the city in the future and proceed with your plan?"

So Mr. Itsuki breathes one breath and leaves.

"Specifically, can you officially serve in my territory?"

This is what a ship means when it crosses.

You finally invited me, and I smiled unexpectedly. But I immediately tightened my expression.

In the middle of a serious conversation, I can't make a face that doesn't slow me down.

However, the change in my expression seems to have disturbed Mr. Itsuki.

He tightens his expression and asks for it.

"I'm sure Ash and the family left behind in the village are worried, but I'll do whatever I can to help."

"Supporting?

I can accept the agreement immediately, but I am concerned about the terms and conditions, so I ask.

Nothing, I don't want you to lift it up.

"We'll get you a place to stay, and we'll make sure you get enough money. Given Ash's track record, there's nothing strange about it. I want to be mindful of where Ash works and what Ash wants."

It's a lot of trouble for the peasants.

I'm not complaining. Strongly speaking, I am afraid of being treated too well.

"It's quite a nice condition, are you sure? Don't behave like that to me."

"No, I was thinking of soliciting Ash from the beginning.... I didn't think Ash would leave the city."

Itsuki slides his gaze to Miss Mayka next to me for a moment.

"Anyway, look, you lived here with pleasure, and the plan you started wasn't running like this, so I didn't think you had a choice to go back to the village on the way."

Well, in fact, I didn't want to make that choice, so I'm not mistaken.

All I can tell from my attitude is that I'm in the city.

Nothing wrong with Mr. Itsuki, but he looks up to me like he's sorry.

"Thinking about it, we didn't have enough attention. Apologize for that, and maybe you can wave a little more power in the city for me in the border area."

There is a verse that comes to mind in Mr. Itsuki's very low posture.

There is a verse that comes to mind in the seat next to me.

The developments that have taken place in the last few days have always been convenient for me.

If you think about it, haven't you started talking to the guy from the verse next to me?

"I think there has already been an interview from military officials and political officials... both the leader and the consulate want someone like you. They will not complain if they rejoice when they have received Ash somewhat nicely."

When I learned about their overzealous solicitation, it seems that their overzealous thoughts were also conveyed to the lord's deputy.

"Did Izuki talk to these people?

"Yes, I was directly negotiated. It was an incredible sword."

Mr Itsuki has distant eyes, even if he stands on the battlefield and doesn't seem to move. It must have gotten worse than those battlefields.

I can predict that both were closer to punching than direct negotiation.

Mr Itsuki was frank about what he was threatened with.

"So, I wanted to ask Ash to stay in the city after the dissolution of the Sons' Military Association because of the opinions of the Bunbu subordinates and the fact that I was going to do that from the beginning, so I invited him to dinner today..."

"It's a great honor."

It's helpful to talk quickly. I didn't need any troublesome persuasion work, so I smiled and agreed.

"Oh, yeah! Can you take it?

"Yes, with pleasure. The other day, in a letter from Quid, Yuika got permission from her parents, and her only concern was met."

Well, there wasn't much to worry about my parents.

Ok, ok! It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay if Ash takes care of it!

After Itsuki nodded happily, he shook his hands next to me.

"My uncle did it, Micah!

"Fufu, if my uncle went up there, he'd be so happy. Ash-kun feels weird."

I understand. This voice of Miss Micah is the voice of a time when she is hiding her impatience.

Yeah. This sequence of events must have been the work of Miss Micah.

Perhaps he knew that I wanted to stay in the city and set me up.

Stream stones are steadily getting stronger, the beloved daughter of the Yuika goddess. Really dependable.
