Isekai Ryouridou
⑥ White day, Asta's day - night ~
"No, it's kind of been a big day."
after sunset.
Me and I-Fa, who finished Cheese Gibba Berg's dinner, talked in the dim dark, as usual.
"I feel more face-to-face with a lot of people than usual, and there have been a lot of moves in commerce - Zida and Cycleus didn't even make the perfect move, but it's been a lot of noise."
"Really," Ai-Fa said, looking strange, soaking up a glass of wine.
It seems somewhat grumpy there, which seems not to be the case, and the mood feels difficult to read right now.
"Oh, yeah. Ey-fa, because the liquor cup and the fine fruit liquor are in place, why don't you take an occasional evening snack and spill?
"Banshaku?
"It's about drinking at night. You're a cool mouth, aren't you? As much as I originally had fruit liquor in my pantry."
For that matter, I've hardly ever seen Ai-Fa soak up fruit liquor.
Ey-Fa gave her long golden brown hair, which was loose before bedtime.
"But you can't drink, can you? I'd be tempted to spend copper coins on my own for no reason."
"Oh, you cared about that? Don't tell me you had Gabagaba fruit liquor all by yourself.
"... does that mean Donda-Lou behaves more like a parent than I do?
"I'm not. I just want to enjoy the generosity of the people who gave me these."
I knew I was in the mood for one thing or another, and while I was in danger, I brought two earthen bottles from the food bank.
One bottle is a fine fruit liquor from the Balan gentlemen, and the other is filled with the fruit juice of the seal narrowed down in the afternoon time.
"I'll take this one. Drink some Ey-Fa, too."
"Isn't that the juice you use in cooking?
"Yeah, but I didn't get much time to study today. It would be a shame if it was damaged tomorrow, and then I thought I'd enjoy it as a little hobby."
As a matter of fact, we are looking to use this as a substitute for lemon juice on Giva steaks and the like.
We are in the process of formulating a calculation as to whether or not you can enjoy the flavour of meat more directly while suppressing gibberish with a refreshing aroma and acidity.
Or you can pair it with fruit liquor or seasoning and rub it with lemon sauce. Anyway, let's try Giva meat with a different approach.
I poured the seal juice into my glass and divided it with water.
The ratio is 2: 1 with more water.
When I followed it with my fingertips, it was still sour enough.
but this is just lemon water.
I just want honey and ice if I can.
"Um, I think I'll just get a little fruit liquor for the flavoring."
Carefully, drop less than a teaspoon of fruit liquor into the glass.
That alone made the fragrance exceptionally better.
I can't drink, but I love the aromas of wine and rum.
"Look, isn't pouring the contents the only way to drink?
The fruit juice of the seal is only slightly yellowish, and the fruit liquor barely changes the shade in any quantity.
Still, shaking the glass gently, he caught the candlestick fire and scattered a glittering grain of light.
So that finally intrigued me, I = fa also pour fruit liquor into my glass.
The change was also noticeable because you are clearly red.
The sides of the glass contain cuts by the way, which disturb the bright red light.
"... that's beautiful," Ai-Fa said, flailing his mouth.
Glad to hear that crackling smile, I'll hit the eye-fa glass.
Chin, and the cool tone rang.
"Good day again"
That's how I put my mouth on the glass.
I divided the lemon juice with room temperature water and fragranced it with grape wine, sort of that flavor.
It is not something that can be described as delicious.
Still, I liked the atmosphere.
Ey-Fa shrugs one shoulder, then puts on a grunt and fruit liquor.
The fruit liquor poured into the glass until the eighth minute disappeared with it.
"Come on, I'm the one who did it, but don't be too impotent, okay? This is supposed to be more frequent than regular fruit liquor."
"Let go?" Leaning his neck, Ai-Fa pours fruit liquor again.
"It means it's strong alcohol and it's easy to get drunk. That's what it's like to have booze on fire."
Once upon a time, at Rutim's feast, I used this fine fruit liquor as a tool for Flambe.
It is my guess that the usual fruit liquor is about the order of wine, and this fruit liquor is about the order of brandy or whiskey.
"You don't have to worry about it that way, you don't commit drunken foolishness. Not if someone doesn't attack us at night in the dark."
Saying, now drink about half of the liquor glass.
Still full of fancy drinks.
"Speaking of which, it's Asta. Didn't a man like Michelle from Turan show up?
"Oh, I didn't show up for today."
Michele of Turan, a mysterious figure about knowing Cycleus' sins.
Schmiral left me saying that I was supposed to show up at the Xuanrong Pavilion one day, but that didn't seem to be today.
"So what about that guy named Sanjula?
"Sanjula would have come to the stall to buy some food. You were so worried that you didn't offer to the guards about Zida."
"... right"
"Looks like I-Fa is a lot more alert to Sanjula. Is that also for any reason?
"Nothing like that for once. It's just that if he turns to his enemies, it's gonna be a lot of trouble, so I can't help it."
and drinks up the other half in one breath again.
Apparently, Ai-Fa is also an unbeatable wobble by Donda-Lou. Apply the agura and pour the liquor at your disposal. It looks quite luxurious.
"Until now, I had never seen a man in a town with that kind of power. A man with no less power than the people of the woods - at best, Kamua-Josh, and that noble man with the gray eyes."
"Mel Fried?... Oh, but what about that Zida guy?
"Oh, that's no less powerful than a hunter by the woods, either.... but at least it doesn't extend to me or Rudd-Lou"
"So, what about Camus or Melfried? Specifically, how much power do you have?
Momentum, I asked.
Ai-Fa looks a little nasty and puts on fruit liquor.
"If there is no mistake in my view, Camua-Josh will have no less power than Donda-Lou, and a nobleman with gray eyes will have the same power as Giza-Lou"
"So if I were to put a number on it, would the apex mean three people: Donda-Lou, Dan-Rutim, and Camus? Only Camus is surprised after all."
"... To be honest, that man's power is hard to measure. However, even Donda-Lou and Dan-Lutim can be easily removed."
"I see. But I was able to compete with Dan Rutim."
Could it be the top four, not the top three?
What is the power of Ai-Fa so extraordinary?
"Not sure I can beat those guys with me"
And, Ai-Fa stares at the glittering liquor cup.
"I just... I don't even think I'm going to lose clearly. If you do it well, I feel like you can win, and worst of all, I think you can protect your life. Even if you can't win, if you can get away with it, you can do anything."
"I see. So, Sanjula is a Rudd-Loux prowess?... That, by the way, what about Rudd-Loo's strength compared to Giza-Loo or Dulm-Loo's?
"Why do you care about that? All I can feel is the other person's power for me."
Saying a little annoying, Ai-Fa serves pepper and fruit liquor.
Did you exhort yourself that the pitch was quick? I love you so much with your cat-like tricks.
"If we put our hands together, wins and losses can sometimes be turned upside down, like just now Sin-Lu or Rau Ray. So it's hard to predict what happens when those who become Rudd-Lou and Sanjula feel the same way, and those who become Zizza-Lou and Melfried feel the same way,"
"Hmm. That makes sense.... Ah, then just the two of us at the end. How powerful is Zashma and Larvis?
"Hmm? Who are those people?
"Zashma is a fellow Camus who played the head of that Chamber of Commerce. Larvis is... the people of the South who are offering Dial."
When I heard Dial's name, a crease came between the eye-fa's eyebrows.
So, it builds fruit liquor again.
"I don't care about those people. Even the youngest hunters by the woods will never be late."
Really?
But Zashma should have been talking about being a "guardian" who makes rough business his business and Larvis is also a swordsman who can deal with multiple burglars.
When that happens, I still settle on the conclusion that a hunter by the woods has an unusual power, and that Ai-Fa is one of the best of them.
(It's really a big deal. Isn't the presence of Ai-Fa the most amazing than that of Camus and Sanjula)
I was thinking about that, and I-Fa's been looking at me the whole time.
"What are you thinking, Asta?... I guess you're not thinking about that girl anymore?
"Oh, that girl? Is that, like, a real thing?
"Don't blur. Or the daughter of the people of the west? You've been talking a lot cheerfully with that girl."
"Kee, it's inevitable that you're starting to talk cheaply. You'd have seen that interaction, wouldn't you?
"Hmm!" said Ai-Fa, mouthing the glass as he scowled at me.
"I don't like the damsels. It's out of the question that women like Yamil-Ray don't know what to do."
"No, so, um..."
"If you want to marry your daughter-in-law, you want a bunch of women like Sheila-Lou. I prefer sweet women."
I've listened to that before.
But it's got to be something I'm not involved in.
I = fa, coming closer and closer to me.
"Or it could be Li-Sudra. Ama Min-Rutim is a well made lady too. But don't feel like you're only keeping away from such a sweet bunch of women, Asta."
"I don't mean any of that! You have a partner in the first place, right?
"That's why you're falling back on unmarried women."
"I'm not falling back!
"Now, I don't have a grudge against the young daughter of the Din family, etc. -"
"I said stop! What's wrong with you? I thought you were a little drunk.
I'm not drunk.
And, I = fa poured what was left of the liquor cup into the back of his throat before bringing it to Funya and to my chest.
"I knew you were drunk!
"That's a shitty one... not me who can handle this much booze"
A hot breath creeping down my chest.
Or anywhere in Ey-Fa that's touching my body, it's so hot.
"... If you want to marry your daughter-in-law, you deserve a bunch of women like Sheila-Lou..."
"No, so I said I wouldn't marry anyone."
"... As a parent, I guess I'm in a position to congratulate it..."
"You've told me before that's not necessary, right?
"... parents have to live happily ever after..."
Ai-fa has been cuddling my body.
But I guess I haven't been able to add or subtract power because of the booze. I heard the twitching and ribbed tone, and I said, "Gee!" I was to scream.
"It's painful! It seriously breaks! Ai-Fa, get back to your sanity!
"... you're rejecting me, Asta"
"Otherwise! Cute, my ribs are screaming!
Desperately, tap on Ai-Fa's shoulder.
So finally, the power is loose.
but Ai-Fa's arm didn't try to let me go, and his face remained pushed to his chest perfectly.
I breathe deeply as my nose tips are tickled by that soft hair.
"... my number one happiness is to be by your side, Ai-Fa"
Even if I manage to get a sober tone in place, my heartbeat will be well conveyed.
As much as that, I was feeling the heartbeat of the i-fa better.
"So I don't marry anyone. Being a husband and wife must mean wanting to spend the rest of my life with that person - as long as you're around, I don't have to marry anyone."
No reply.
Maybe this is already falling asleep, what kind of och?
I took another breath and then gently turned my hand around Ai-Fa's head and back.
How the hell does Ey-Fa's body temperature get through my body and make my heartbeat faster?
('Cause you're here. Oh, my God, i-fa-)
In the last two and a half months, I've had a lot of important people.
There are a lot of people in the woodland settlements and in the lodging towns who you would never want to lose.
There are so many people out there who have no kiri when I count them, that they support my existence.
But still, sitting in the middle of my heart is Ey-Fa.
Only that thought still remains the same.
No, it doesn't change. It's getting stronger every day.
And I know how irreplaceable and how happy I am to be able to believe that Ey-Fa cares about my existence in the same way - because I know how painful my chest is.
Until I throw out such a happy raw, there's no way I'm marrying other women to my daughter-in-law. It is as strange as ever that it has not been passed on to Ai-Fa.
(When the hell are you gonna realize that you're as attractive a person as that, Ai-Fa? Or is that something I really can't feel on my own)
With that in mind, I put a little effort into my arms holding Ai-Fa's body.
Then - Ai-Fa wandered around like a cat and then poured words into my heart.
"... if that word is true, I'm happy too"
The day of the long white moon thus finally came to an end.
