Isekai Ryouridou

Tomorrow.

Then five days later - it is the fifth day of the month of ashes.

Ash is another odd name for the moon, but it seems that last month is the white moon and next month is the black moon, so this month is the ash moon.

Anyway, that's the fifth day of the ash moon.

On this day, I and I-Fa were finally allowed to go home to Fa.

With the dedication of Melfried and others, bandits with such great names as "The Wind of Black Death" were finally captured.

The militia traitors also apparently pleaded guilty as Cycleus charged.

That Cycleus also finally recovered from his medical condition and was to be transferred to Castle Genos.

Tomorrow, the inquisition begins.

Death penalty, or permanent imprisonment. Mulstein had promised the Forestside Chiefs that there would be no ruling below it.

After that interrogation, Zulo-Sung and Barsha will also be tried.

But you too, it has already been arranged within that Zulo-Sung will be given a ten-year hard time sentence and Barsha an amnesty.

How much longer would it take to really say it's all over - we almost got our routine back for now?

"Hey, I miss everything too much, I think I'm going to cry"

Encouraging my supper support at Fa's house, I let him say so.

Having just returned from the hunter's job, Ai-Fa is wearing a one-kneed rag a little further away.

It was on the fifth day of the white moon that I was exposed to Leflaia.

So it was my first return in a whole month.

I've stopped by a few times for it, and I spent more time with the two of us at night in Luu's settlement - but still, my chest was filled with emotions I couldn't contain.

Of course, I didn't see any difference in Fa's house because Ai-Fa had returned once a day to manage the food pantry and so on.

He also came to greet the folks of Fou and Sudra and Din straw during the day.

The settlement of Lou was also a cozy and irreplaceable space for me, but after all, my place to go is this fa's house.

"Starting tomorrow, we can finally resume our stall business. I can't get out of my mind until the interrogation is over, but really, I feel like I'm finally getting my routine back."

In the street commerce, the Kingsguard Corps and the Camua-Josh were in the step of providing protection.

It was only this time that all sinners should have been captured, but Malstein nevertheless suggested to me that we would need protection just in case until the end of the interrogation.

"The soldiers will be on watch a little further away, and the inn will be accompanied by me and Zashma. Astas, don't worry. Encourage me to work."

Camua said that to me, too.

After that interrogation, Camus also said he plans to leave Genos for a bit.

"When I sent Lord Wellhide to Banaam, I thought I'd look for work there and explore the West Territories again.... I've been working on this for over three months, so I wanted to put my wings up too."

That statement by Camus also clearly suggested that the case was coming to an end.

Windmill, with his purple strange eyes, said even more like this, with a strange way of laughing that made me restless.

"I'm sure this is the second real place from which the people of the woods will establish their position in Genos. The fate of Cycleus, Silel, and those like Zazz-Sung, who had twisted, was finally pulled straight back. The next time I visit Genos, imagine what it's like for everyone to live in, and how different it is, and I'm going to go around the country."

I guess that's what Camua's saying.

All misunderstandings are being resolved.

The disturbing relationship that had been bonded between the nobility of Genos and the people by the woods was severed and all sins were to be exposed under the day.

From here on out, it's real.

Even if the Great Sinner is swept away, it does not change that the people by the woods are quiet and closed, a rare clan living under different ethics and codes than the people of the town.

What bonds can the people of the forest make with the people of Genos?

In the eightieth year, it will be asked again.

But there were only a few things I could do.

"A variety of ingredients may become available in the Inn Town. In that case, I think there is a good chance that meals sold in other stalls and lodgings will be of better quality. I'll try my best to develop a new dedication so we don't lose it."

"You'd be able to do your job."

Saying it with a serious face, then Ai-Fa lowers her brow butt just a little bit.

"But now, focus on what you're doing.... I can't wait to get hungry."

"Oh, yeah, I'm finishing up now, so please wait!

The sunlight that plugs through the window is getting a lot redder.

Even today, Ai-Fa, who had tailored the giva of the big man and brought it home sweaty, snobbing at the work of peeling and dismantling, looked exhausted at all times.

They've been putting their feet up pretty deep in the woods lately because of the decreasing number of givahs around here.

In a few more days I guess I should take a rest period, Ey-Fa said so.

"Speaking of which, the period of that rest is also under discussion as to whether we should interact with Fou and Sudra's people?

"Mm-hmm. Until now, I've set a time limit in individual houses. That's what Sudra's parents have said about how convenient it would be for the neighboring houses to meet their footprints."

Is it unconscious, I caressed my tight stomach with my right hand, and I-Fa answered me that way.

"Speaking of around here, the five clans of Fa, Fou, Run, Sudra, Din, and a little more in the south, the three clans of Gaz, Ratz, Baim, and so on. … but since the Din family is Zaza's family, it will require Graf-Zaza's approval."

"Oh, still, the Din and Zaza houses are so far apart. I think it makes more sense to focus on home proximity than blood connections."

In the days when the Sung family was a parent muscle, coming up with something like this, it probably wasn't the kind of air I could suggest at all.

The people of the woods are also beginning to change.

The human language of small houses is being weighed down, like fa and sudra, which have not previously been looked upon, and soil is being formed that allows us to exchange opinions without abomination with the chieftaincy muscles.

I guess both Genos and the forestside settlements will be experiencing different transformations from now on.

It was my strong desire to see through the sins of my compatriots how Genos and Moribe would change - the thought that I was one of those factors.

"All right, it's done! Thanks for waiting, Parent. It's been a month since we've had dinner at Fa's house."

"Uhm."

Before the parents nodded heavily, I lined up the wooden dishes.

We hitched a ride to Lew's house to enrich some dishes at Fa's house.

Soup and meat dishes, raw vegetable salad and baked potatoes in large plates, small plates for serving, and handmade chopsticks, iron skewers and wooden spoons.

With just a few more dishes, the content hasn't changed, but it's quite spectacular.

Ey-Fa greeted you a little before meal and showed you how to look at your lips before picking up the wooden spoon.

Thus, "Hmm" looks over the dish with a solemn gaze.

"... hanba-good"

"Oh, it's a hamburger"

If I had revealed a different dedication here, it would have been just as tight on my neck.

Yet today, I am releasing my first attempt to this dish.

This hanging juice, illuminated in reddish brown, is a demi-glass-style sauce made using a variety of vegetables, milk fat, etc., accompanied by a chach carefully heat through low heat and sautéed Nenon and Aria.

It's the most familiar to me, and I've been trying to pursue the taste of a royal road called Hamburg.

"It's the first hamburger I've had in a month. Taste it."

"Uhm."

Only solemnly, Ai-Fa took a hamburger wood plate.

I sneak in and observe Tarapa-tailored giva soup instead of tau oil.

Ey-Fa cut a bite of hamburger with a wooden spoon and carried it into his mouth with no expression - and stunned to open his eyes.

Peek into the hamburger cross section with all those eyes lacking a little calm.

"Asta, this Hanba-gu..."

"Yes, yes. I tried to plant cheese inside. Cheese in Hamburg."

"Didn't cheese run out a long time ago?

"No, actually, yesterday, I snuck through the camouflage and let them buy cheese that was often found at Count Turan's house. I heard that the ingredients were overflowing and it was a big deal."

Eating cheese on a hamburger for Camembert cheese was supposed to be the finest treat for Ai-Fa.

It was, well, a surprise production that planted it inside Pate instead of putting it on.

I don't think it goes well with demiglass-style sauces, either, or with tarapa or fruit liquor sauces.

"We hope you don't mind that this is the best way to build your mind."

Ey-fa compared my face with a slightly more or less wooden plate in his hand, chewing on the meat and cheese.

So, eventually, unfortunately, when I put the wood plate down, I get on with the momentum and I squirm my head around.

"Delicious."

"That's good. Thanks."

I smiled back when I couldn't get any more upset.

Then - Ai-Fa took a plate of soup from my hand, carefully placed it on the floor, and then bypassed the food and came to me, hugging my body all the time.

"Delicious."

"Wow, I said I get it! Eat the dish before it gets cold!

"I know."

For exactly five seconds, Ai-Fa stuck my body just trying to shatter my bones, and then snuggled back into his position again.

So, I soak up the thick cheese that spills from the patties looking important, cheeks along with meat and chatch.

"... delicious"

"Yeah, I'm glad."

"... see you later"

"See you later, what!?

"Now, the food's gonna get cold."

Even though the expression hadn't moved that far, Ai-Fa looked very happy.

My blue eyes twinkle like a child and they are so beautiful.

At its chest, the blue stone ornament I once gave you shines through the third eye.

How will Moribe and Genos change beyond this?

I want to live and see that changing world with Ai-Fa.

With that thought hoarded in my chest, I also took up a wooden plate to eat the hamburger I kept.
