Mid October. Allen is eight years old in October.
Today is the day the lord comes. A few days ago, the messenger told the date when the lord came. The next day, the mayor arrived and was informed Rodin and Gerda.
Allen will be the guide. You have to explain to the lord about boa hunting. In addition, it is said that he will serve at the supper the day before. So if you ask me anything about hunting, you have to answer.
Prepare early in the morning and head to the village chief's house before noon. Rodin and Gerda do not go. Serfs are not so easily met by lords.
I arrive before 9 am and wait (nap) at the village chief's house. Before noon, he is woken up by a commoner working at the village chief. He says he should take a bath and get ready.
(Oh, it may be my first bath. There is a water bath.)
On a hot summer day, a large tub may hold water and enter naked. As a serf, I usually wipe my body with wet linen without soap.
Soak in a well-warmed wooden crate. Carefully enter until the water cools down to keep your body clean. The clothes passed are pretty good clothes that even ordinary people do not wear much.
Then wait about 3 hours. You are told to get up and wait.
(I'm just waiting too long)
At 15 o'clock the bell rang, and after waiting another hour or so, it seemed to have arrived. The inside of the house is quite awful.
Shortly thereafter, the lord entered the village mayor's house. It's a supper in the hall of the village chief. The supper is just dinner, and the lord and his subordinates only eat. Only the head of the village has a meal on behalf of the village.
The village chief told me about the lord in advance.
The town where the lord is located is called the territory Granver. It's about 5 days from here. Baron Granver will be the next waiter. It's been 5 days since I came to the village, so I'm pretty tired.
When I was thinking about that, my turn came. The rather large kitchen at the village mayor's house is busy. Five or six women are cooking where they ran from. Cleanly arranged dishes line up.
There was a village chief in front of the hall entrance door. The lord is already in the hall, but Allen seems to enter with the mayor. I feel that the mayor is quite nervous.
The village chief enters first. There was a welcome right there after entering the door. He talks about the food is ready.
"Carry a meal"
The village chief instructs you to bring your meal through the door.
Allen carries food from the appetizer. There is one table in the center.
(I'm the lord in the back)
The lord sits at the back of the birthday seat. A hawk-eyed man with lilac hair. It's tough. I would be in my mid-forties.
The lord who sits in the back carries a meal without words on the plate without looking at his face.
Carry more and more food. It is prepared on a board up to the entrance of the hall. There is no need to return to the kitchen. Go back and forth between the entrance and the table. I guess everyone should carry it, but only Allen is the waiter.
(Carrying from the lord, including the village mayor?
Carry in order. A man believed to be the lord, a bearded man with butler-like gray hair beside him, and the Knight and Vice Knight who came to see Clena.
And next to the lord is a girl with light purple hair, like the lord. Looks as old as Allen.
"Even so, it was a difficult time to develop a village."
"Oh, thank you very much"
The lord calls out to the village chief.
"It has been 15 years since the territory of the territory was issued. There has been no more successful cultivation than my territory. Deboji.
(A territory reclamation order? What is it?)
Allen listens to the conversation as the lord praises the village mayor. Information may be required before the bore hunting tomorrow.
"Everyone has worked hard for the Lord."
It is a village chief who is sick. The appetizer is almost untouched. It doesn't seem to be a meal.
"I didn't really care about boa meat, because this is the life of His Majesty the King."
(Hmm? Is the king hunting for bore ??) The story is getting bigger.
Listen to the story of boa hunting. I'm busy because I'm serving.
"This was the order of His Majesty the King."
"Well, yes. Well, strictly because of Carnel. Lord Carnel, thanks for touching the boa hunting between the audience, thanks ..."
A lord who gets angry as if he remembered. The eyes become tighter. He is a frightened village chief. Fat sweat is emerging from the forehead and cheeks.
"My husband, the village mayor is scared. And if I reach my target of 20, my husband's reputation will rise again."
Nearly a butler-like man close to his mouth without seeing the lord.
"Nuh? Yeah, yeah. I'm sorry, Mayor of Deboj. Boa hunting was in the ear of the king. I was told to increase more."
"It was so."
Lord who talks about the situation that the number of boa hunting increased by scraping. Bring the main dish meat there. Place the dishes in order from the lord.
"Mum! What's this delicious meat !!"
"Ho, it's really delicious!"
The lord and his daughter open their eyes and are surprised when they are delicious.
"What is this?-Mayor!"
Ask the mayor if it was so delicious.
"Oh, oh, oh, this is ..."
A village chief who is suddenly heard and stuck in words.
"This is the meat of Albaheron. I caught it yesterday, so I gave it to my lord. It was breast, peach, liver, and flavored with herbs. Doing"
"Hmm? Oh yeah ..."
Allen replies on behalf of the mayor who is full of words.
All eyes glance at Allen at once. The lords were worried because the boy with black hair and eyes was serving.
When Allen notices his gaze, he bows lightly and cleans the plate after eating. Only six people are sitting, but I'm busy because I'm serving alone. The shuttle goes between the hall and the entrance.
"It's a village mayor. You have a good son.
"Huh? Well, this is a child of Rodin ..."
The lord says there is no solid child. The village chief denies that he is not his child.
"Rodan?"
"Oh, I remember. Your lord, Rodin, is a child who is the coordinator of boa hunting, Rodin."
The knight commander seemed to remember. Two years ago, he was seated at the banquet with the commander of the Knights.
"Are you bored hunting Rodin?"
"Yes, my name is Allen, the son of Rodin. I will guide you to bore hunting tomorrow."
Say hello to the lord.
"Is Rodin a knight collapse or something? I don't have a very good child."
"No, no, it must have been a serf since his parents."
Because of the child's behavior, Rodin asks if he was a knight or something. The village chief also knows Rodin's father and says that is not the case. That is the time.
"Huh ?? There's a serf in this hall!"
A girl believed to be the daughter of the lord showed disgust at knowing that the serf was in the hall. She looks at Allen with her beautiful face distorted.
"Well !? Cecil, the serfs are also worthy people of our territory! We can't say that!"
Involuntarily roaring voice.
"I'm sorry, Father."
Cecil's daughter apologizes with tears. And
Ki!
(Why are you being stared for some reason?)
I stare at Allen just as if I was angry with my father for you. She is glared with bullish eyes that tend to be slightly hung from her parents. The crimson eyes seem to represent the current emotion. Allen looks away so that he doesn't look too close.
"So, Allen."
"Yes, Lord"
The lord speaks again to Allen.
"Tomorrow, they will guide you through boa hunting."
"Yes"
"Please explain how to hunt well."
"I'll do that."
"Zenov, listen as well."
"Hah!"
The knight commander replies. The knight commander is named Zenov.
(Hmm? The Knights often hear me? What ’s that?)
A question mark appears on Allen's face.
"She is Rodin. I must definitely achieve the 20 defeats this time, because it's a royal life."
The knight commander talking to Allen. He seems to answer Allen's questions. Allen turns to the commander of the Knights.
"Yes"
"If the results show that it seems difficult to achieve, our knights will also participate."
(Huh? It ’s not just a visit)
Finally, I understand why the lord came. This year, we need 20 defeats. Last year, 15 defeats were achieved. However, there is no guarantee that you can hunt 20 of them this year.
The lord is worried that he can achieve it. He led the Knights to fulfill the king's life and came to bore hunting.
"That's right."
The mayor understood the situation. Nod convinced.
"Lord"
Allen speaks there.
"What's wrong? I'll be fine. If you give me a good explanation, the Knights will do well. Don't worry."
The lord wants to teach only how to hunt.
"No, Lord. There are only 20 at most."
"Buh !?"
The village chief gushing into Allen's words. Both the lord and the knights open their eyes.
"I'll show you that if we go together tomorrow's boa hunting and the village of Kurena will come together, we can definitely achieve our goal of 20."
As the six eyes gathered, he lowered his head and affirmed. There is no fear or hesitation. It was so clear that no one could take a breath and reply.
