Isekai Ryouridou

⑤ Blue Moon 16 - Frenzy

"Don't worry so much, Ai-Fa"

The next day.

It was rarely Rudd-Lou who threw those words at Ai-Fa while following the road to the Accommodation Town.

"Well, you can't leave Asta alone and sneak around. If in the meantime Asta gets bit by Geez and gets sick and can't cook and dies, that's the bigger part, right?

As well as until yesterday, it is organized by eight people: four street numbers and four escorts.

As he descends down a path that is slightly inclined to the lower side, Ai-Fa keeps his silence with a muffled face.

"I didn't complain about my father or my brother Giza. If you still want to show up today, I caught you today. If you're in town, you won't be able to pull a giva with" Giva Fruit, "and it's easy for a hunter to win if that's all."

Regardless, we did not cover up what happened last night to our fellow forest brethren.

However, it was even sent to night search work by a Dom family man who was holding the guard of Fa's house, but he was unable to discover any trace of Tay-Sung.

What form, then, do we prepare for Tay-Sung, who declared that he will appear in Jomtien today? Various opinions prevailed on this, but Kakku settled on the conclusion that "the escort is the usual number and nothing will be communicated to the Genos side".

If the opponent is Tae-Sung alone, he will be able to seize enough of his current power. Just Jomtien will be joined by members of the Sudra family, so there will be as many as eight hunters there. Taking lag with this would not be possible first.

To put it further, there was also consideration that lowering more than conventional numbers to accomodation towns would just disturb the hearts and minds of people in unstable towns.

There is a slightly more complicated reason for not communicating to the Genos side.

Shortages may occur when the guards and others get their hands on them. There were also practical reasons why Tay-Sung might be unable to get close to the stall if he poorly reinforced his protection, and could be hung up on means such as taking the town's humans hostage - though. Above all, the suspicion of Castle Genos has preceded it.

Tay-Sung said he wanted to restore some distorted relations between the town and the woodland. I didn't know if it was true, but it was dangerous to intervene in the will and power of Genos's power there.

The ruling class of Genos cannot be trusted. The opinion prevailed that the sinner should be captured here and then handed over and complained about, and settled there.

I also agreed with that opinion. I don't know if Castle Genos and Moribe, who have lost their trust so far, will be able to connect correctly in the future, or if I think about it, I won't say goodbye and I'll be heavy headed.

"Anyway, don't worry about it. The women, of course, won't let the people in town scratch a scratch. Get them. If they're alone, I don't know what to do."

Rudd-Lou, who walks in the lead, overlaps words like that in a cheerful tone as usual.

"So, if he's honest enough to throw away his knife, you can grace Asta's cooking. Then you're complaining about him, right? I found out you had a complaint. Damn it.... So don't be so depressed, Ai-Fa"

"... I'm not depressed about anything"

And, as he finally could not hold back, Ey-Fa said so while holding his lips together.

Really, Rau-Ray, who was walking the opposite side of the ladies with his, reacts, "What's that face?"

"Do you ever look like that? Isn't it like a child or a bunch of women"

In an instant, Ai-Fa became the shape of a bobcat, throwing a dangerous glance at Lau-Ray.

"Oh, don't look good on any face, you. She's such a beauty if you look closely, and if she's not a hunter, she wants to be my wife."

"Stop it, Rau-Ray. You're always too reluctant."

When I panicked and fired back up, Rau-Ray said, "What?" and lean his neck.

"There is no such thing as a lesson in the Ray family as reluctance on friends. I just said I want to be my wife because I want to be my wife."

"No, so..."

"Don't worry. Hunters and others cannot be daughter-in-law. I have a lot of kids left as parents. If you want to be my daughter-in-law, you have to give up your job as a hunter."

"You haven't said a word that I'd rather be your daughter-in-law," Rudd-Lou burst into me laughing, so I decided to end that topic.

I guess the swallowing of a man who can be left alone in a situation like this should be taken as comforting. As a matter of fact, my breasts have been blocked since yesterday.

If Tae-Sung really shows up in Accommodation Town today, we can settle for now for a series of disturbances.

But what end does it end in?

Can we let the fear that we have inflicted on the people of the town dissolve a little? Or won't it just make it worse?

The people of the woods shall judge the people of the woods before the people of the city. Thai-Sung said that's the only way to ease the suspicions of the people in town, etc. - I don't know, it's like a human being like me or Camus could come up with something.

So it seemed that the people of the Ai-Fa and Luu families were not impressed in any way by Tay-Sung's words. Depending on the circumstances, it is possible that Tae-Sung will be slashed and ambushed if he shows up.

(What kind of person is that guy... Tay-Sung really?)

I lost my family and started living in the main house, a man of division.

Father of Oura and grandfather of Zwei.

A man who had become the limbs and legs of Yamil-Ray and Diga and had been forced to engage only in a job that was not even Rokuro.

And - of the previous parent Zazz-Sung, near.

How many times have I scrutinized a profile like that, I don't see Tay-Sung's humanity at all.

The only adjudicating material was "maybe" behind Diga's orders to save Ai-Fa, and about those two points, which put down the knife lightly like an idiot in front of Dan-Rutim.

(… I want someone to destroy me soon)

Yamil-Ray's words come back to the back of his brain.

Wouldn't that be the same thing as Yamil-Ray's own mood once was?

Still, Yamil-Ray chose the path to live as a Ray family person.

Even Tay-Sung would have found a new raw as a family member of the Dom family if he had ignored the existence of Zazz-Sung, etc.

Yet Tay-Sung chose the path to follow Zazz-Sung.

Digga and Dodd escaped, but Tay-Sung stayed under Zazz-Sung.

And along with Zazz-Sung, he dyed his hands for the last evil deed.

Are all of these, too, part of the desire for ruin?

Tay-Sung chose that path - I mean, is that what it is?

"... hey, stop," Lauray-Ray lifted his arm to the fence and pushed our march to a halt.

Deep green, path at the edge of the woods.

It is a narrow road, cut only to connect the accommodation town with the forestside settlement. On the left and right, trees with low lengths but often leafy trees stand, and dirt roads two or three metres wide continue with great twists and turns.

There are many greens and the prospects are uncertain, but it should have been right around the time when the boarding town's stigma would have arrived if we had gone a little further.

"What's the matter with you? Nothing. No sign of anything?

"From the left and right woods.... but the signs on the town side are noisier than usual?

I don't hear anything.

Vina-Lou and the women are also leaning their necks down.

but the hunters were uniformly nodding.

Sounds like a lot of people are making a scene.

"Maybe the Tay-Sung guy screwed up and got caught?

I'll see what I can do.

Sin-Lu, who was holding his grudge, slips his sister's throat and comes forward. Rudd-Lou moved to that vacant position with the breath of Azure.

That's how he carefully went down the road, and Sin-Lu came back less than a minute later.

"Around the border between the town and the forest, the people of the town are gathered. There's no sign of him coming up here, but there seems to be a lot of guards."

"How many are there?

"There are more than ten guards and about a hundred people in town"

I wonder what the situation is.

After all, Tae-Sung was captured and the wild horses gathered, which is the easiest idea.

"I can't go down to town with this. What do we do, Asta?

"Yeah.... Shall we see how it goes with me and Ai-Fa? That would be the number one combination that doesn't inspire people in town."

Besides, if Tay-Sung got caught, I think we should exchange words before they take us to the castle.

"Right. But if it's dangerous, why don't you turn around immediately? So let's just take it easy and wait for them to disappear."

"Got it," Ai-Fa nodded.

That's how we went down the road, just like Sin-Lu did earlier.

I'm about thirty seconds down a loosely curved road, and I can see the scene Sin-Lu was talking about.

It was still higher up here, so we got dressed looking down at the scene.

Wooden houses lined up in shifts. More than a hundred people gather in a little vacant space-like space on its back. Just the kind of position that would seal off the goal point on this road.

Speaking of which, since Zazz-Sung and others fled, two guards have also become standing around it.

That's more than ten.

And - some of the townspeople obviously seemed to be eating at those guards.

"... there's no way a man named Tay-Sung has been captured."

"Yeah. So, maybe - we're the culprits of the noise?

Nor is that an impossible story.

Or if Tay-Sung had nothing to do with it, that's all I could think about later.

"What shall I do? If so, it wouldn't be a good idea for us to go down there."

"I wouldn't even be able to turn back without knowing what was going on. If we go down to town, that Tay-Sung guy will go down to town."

Eye-Fa's eyes look at me in harsh light.

"You should also talk to the guards. So if you tell me to go back to the settlement, I'm sure, but whatever, if I don't know what's going on, I can't move.... but if they show us how they're coming in for a big time, we'll be right back on the road?

"Okay."

That's how me and I-Fa moved forward even more cautiously while also being alert to raids from left and right.

Eventually, the density of the trees diminishes, and we can look at each other from that side.

At the same time, people's blurring degenerated into anger.

It's a flurry of human voices, along with a tinnitus that says: Wow.

Once Ai-Fa stopped, he stepped out again, seeing that the spear-covered guards had become walls and there was no sign of the people of the town pushing over here.

As we approach, some angers become recognizable as words.

All I could hear was two different words.

The anger of "Go home!";

"Don't go home! It was just an anger."

"Eh, don't make a scene! It's a big sin to make a scene in town! You want to be banished from Genos, you guys!

Eventually, the guards turned around like that, too, so I could hear them.

"Don't be ridiculous! If it's something you can kick out, just kick it out!

"Even the guards must be able to live forever with our earned copper coins!

"If you're a guard, get the sinners right!

"Who's the sinner!? Although the sinner would have been caught yesterday!

Many of the people are trying to get stuffed by the guards.

but more in the rear, it seemed to have become a grasping noise between the people in town.

The majority are the people of the west and the people of the south.

The western people with ivory and yellowbrown skin and the southern people with white skin are uniformly turning their faces bright red, grasping your chest and scattering.

Some of them are wreaking havoc among the people of the west.

And the people of the east stood, dressed to besiege them like that.

Tall, luxuriously skeletoned, black-skinned Sims stand still silently watching the commotion. The numbers themselves do not seem to have lost to the people of the West or the South.

Some people in the west seemed to eat there, but the people in the east never tried to shout or thrust their opponents, just to quietly return the words.

"The people of the woods resent the people of Genos! Don't let these dangerous people into Genos!

"Don't let anything go of your own accord! It's not like these guys did anything wrong though!

"That's right! Is defamation of innocent humans the West Way to go!?

"Shut up! Don't let the rest of us slap your big mouth!

"If you have a complaint, leave Genos, too!

"Ha! You mean forbid us to come in and out? Then what is this lodging town for? If the rest of you don't care, try building a stone wall!

We stopped about seven or eight meters from them.

The passion is bringing the sober morning atmosphere to a boil.

"The people of the woods are all enemies!

"Are you stupid or what? Then you hunt Giva!

"In front of you, you fool the people of Genos by the woods!?

"Even the people of the woods are the people of Genos! He's the son of Selva, the same Western god! The one who defames the people of the woods is the unforgivable treacherous one!

"Don't make a scene! Just dissolve it! We're really gonna get them all tied up!

"If you can do it, do it!

No longer did I have to ask anyone what was going on.

They were fighting over each other, divided between defending the people by the woods and accusing them.

The people of the south, they are all covering the people by the woods.

The majority of the people in the west are impeaching the people by the woods.

But some of them are against it, albeit a few.

And those numbers felt growing in seconds.

Between the building and the building, there are people who hear this noise coming from the streets.

It is a fuss that cannot be cleaned up.

I stand still, and Ai-Fa bites and crushes the bitter bugs.

Should we claim our innocence?

Or should I turn back the way in silence?

It was easy to imagine, however, that both of them would entail the risk of enlargement of this commotion.

"... the Astas didn't do anything wrong! Why would Asta and the others have to be kicked out of town!

A familiar girl's voice echoed from the narrowness of a tremendous anger and a twitching voice.

I'm sure it's Yumi.

But I can't find out where that figure is.

"Eat your meal! I'm starving!

Is it Balan's old man screaming like that?

Schmiral may be sadly watching this place of commotion as he leans deeply on the hood.

(... what am I supposed to do?

If you think about it normally, you should turn back here once.

I have continued to commerce stalls in the form of being half-enforced by the people of the castle, but if I had stubbornly adhered to such rhetoric in this state, that could be the decisive thing to crack with the people of the town.

We should turn back and once again have a place for dialogue with the men of the castle.

But - if you run back without any explanation like this, the people who are defending the people by the woods may explode further anger.

What the hell are we gonna do?

"Whatever!! What right are you to stand in the way of someone else's business!?

And - the voice of one loud man echoes under the pressure of other angers.

Exactly, so all the people didn't calm down, but at least, many of the people in the front row who were stuck in the guards clasped their mouths and looked back at you.

"What did the people of the woods do to you!? Only a person who's actually been harmed opens his mouth! Keep your mouth shut for the rest of it!

"What are you talking about! Even yesterday, they attacked a man of the Chamber of Commerce!

"It's not like these guys attacked anyone! The one who attacked me got caught! So what's the grievance, you guys!

It was - Milan-Math.

Milan-Math, leaping out of a whirling human vortex, turns his back on this one and flickers around the crowd, raising such anger.

"If you let out even one sinner, are all the humans in that country sinners!? You're going to pull it out even though there is no single sinner in Genos!? Are you even ready to take someone else's sins and get your necks shut on your shoulders?

"You traitor! Get out of Genos if you want to cover the people by the forest!

"I'm not covering anyone! I'm just drooling my sermons at these idiots who want to try people who aren't sinners!

"... let's go, Ai-Fa," I grabbed Ai-Fa's arm.

"We can't let Milan-Math stand on the arrow any more. We'll convince everyone."

"I don't have the words to persuade people in town."

"Then protect me. Because someone might beat you up."

"... then I took it on," Ai-Fa laughs invincibly.

Such an eye-fa and tried to run down the road, at that moment.

"Quiet! A lightning-like voice blanched the boiling atmosphere.

It was such a tremendous roar that people from a hundred people breathed at the same time.

Or if it was Donda-Lou or Dan-Lutim, we could have had the same artistry.

But that's how he showed up on the spot - there was no deception, he was a man of the capital.

Until then, a different temptation dominates the scene, and a denser crowd breaks into two parts, as the Ten Commandments of Moses did.

Through that path, only ten soldiers slowly approached us.

It's not the same size as the town guards.

The soldiers wore beautiful milky leather armor, hung a leather sheath knife on their hips and a long pattern of spears on their hands.

I've never seen a man in a boarding house in such a rugged and vivid outfit.

Metal helmet with nose and cheeks, carcass engraved with the crest of the Kingdom of the West, a cape for liturgy and thought and shortening, hand covering from the back of the hand to the elbow. Other helmets appear to be made of leather, but metal is also used for connecting eyes and the like. The sheath of the knife and leather boots are also refined, making them brave and beautiful, making them the perfect samurai figure.

Whoever was at the center of the group slowly entered before the guards.

All of them are tall and sturdy among the white soldiers blessed with stature.

I'm sure this is the head of this group. The iron helmet is decorated like a chicken crown, and only one cape is a long cape, lowering two swords instead of carrying a spear. The clasp of the cape sparkled with amber-like yellow stones, and the white leather armor had such a beautiful decoration.

"Captain Guard. What kind of noise is this?

The man asked that in a cold and heavy voice.

Definitely the same sound as the roar you just made.

One of the guards, who was blocking the road to the woodland, eats a crease and leaves in front of the man.

"This is Lord Melfried... How could you be in a place like this?

"... I'm the one asking the questions, Chief Guard"

In one word, the little fat man who is the captain of the guard will tremble.

"Ki, yesterday's act of a great sinner is causing the people of the town to be frightened by the people by the woods. It depends on how noisy this is because those woodland folks who do business in town have come down there."

While they were exchanging such words, the people of the town had squeezed into silence.

A strange blank zone, stuck in a cumbersome town and wild forest. This bunch of whitecrumbs were unsuitable for both of them.

What suits them is the stone capital.

It doesn't pin on me when they say Kingsguard Corps, etc., but I guess they are the inhabitants of the capital city - the stone capital surrounded by stone walls, the castle town of Genos.

"... the fact that the people of Moribe are not forbidden to do business in the Inn Town was announced two days ago and should not have been revoked."

And that person, who is Melfried, has turned his face towards me and Ai-Fa.

Because he wears a lofty helmet in depth, he can't see very clearly what he looks like.

But that was enough for me.

If you look sideways, Ai-Fa is also uncomfortably frowning.

Well, then, I figured - it is.

I don't know, I'm gonna hold my fist.

We didn't have much interest in that, and Melfried turned to the head of the guard.

"Or did those men commit any sins?

"Yes, no. Those people have just come down to the scene, and they can't even say a word."

"Then it is the people of the towns that cause the commotion who will be the sinners. Why are you letting sinners go wild?

"But at any rate, it's this number..."

"It doesn't matter how many people. Sin is sin."

Needless to say, the white armored man pulled out one knife.

The people of the town try to scream and fall back.

"Sinners who threaten the peace of Genos, put them on the ropes for good. If you resist, you will be cut off in the name of Melfrid, the commander of the Kingsguard."

It is unscrupulous.

I kept grabbing Ai-Fa's arm, running down a distance of only seven or eight meters at once.

"Wait! Did these people commit so many serious sins? From what I've seen, who didn't seem excited about violent violence?

"But don't slap a cheap mouth when people by the woods! This is Lord Melfried, Lord of Genos Malstein's first son and head of the Kingsguard!?

The captain and the others are turning bright blue and making a scene.

The first son of Genos Candidate Marstein - that is, the eldest brother of the Lord of Genos?

Still, I couldn't keep my mouth shut.

Right next to the man who pulled out the knife, Milan-Math, who burned his eyes in disobedience, stood in a way that seemed to raise his anger even now.

"It's been such a fuss because we just showed up! We should have grown up until the people in town felt calm! There's a good reason why the people in town are in such a mood, so please forgive me!

"... no matter what the circumstances, sin is sin. And it's not forbidden for you to go down to town."

Without even trying to look at this one, Melfried abandoned it low.

Staring at the cold side of it, I desperately say it too.

"Making noise in town is a sin, isn't it? I understand that. If so, shouldn't it be the Teng himself who caused all this noise that should be brought to justice?

"... Ten Himself?

"Yes, it's a business group people led by a merchant named Zashma, who was taking a big sinner who looked horrible like that and was good at walking around the lodging town. If they hadn't exposed the great sinners they were about to lose their sanity to in that way, there wouldn't have been any threat to the peace of the people in town, would there?

It might just sound like I'm obsessed with other people.

But that didn't matter.

All I have to do is convey my feelings to him.

Because of your lack of consideration, this is the kind of noise - my mood.

"... he's a smart-mouthed man," Melfried put his knife away.

The guard chief yells at the mundane and the people of the town, even though he is half-hearted.

"Dismissed! If we don't break up, we're really gonna get you tied up!

People, with a bearded expression of dissatisfaction all over their faces, nevertheless began to turn their feet cursorily toward the town.

Melfried turns to us physically.

"People by the woods. Sin is sin, sinner is sinner. Whether you are a forest folk or an accomodation town folk, I ask you to obey the laws of Genos for as long as you live in this Genos"

"… I think the idea itself is very correct"

Melfried looked younger than he could have imagined. It would be about mid twenties at best.

The lower jaw and others are disappointing, but the nose is high, the eyebrows are neat, and how aristocratic the appearance is.

The skin is ivory, and the forehead spilling from the helmet is pale brown.

And those grey eyes dwelt in a cold light, like reptiles.
