Isekai Ryouridou

The next two days passed without anything - can I commend it?

In the meantime, I was never hit by any major waves or incidents. Mim's business went well, and Michelle was just on her way to recovery, and no other chiefs or nobles opposed her letting them stay in the Lou family.

However, it seems that the treatment will change a lot between the Balshas, who were out of the extra town, and Michel, the inhabitants of Turan. They need a proper procedure to move their residence in Genos' territory.

Moreover, a forest settlement was a heterogeneous space in Genos. I guess what is most heterogeneous is that, after all, there is no such thing as "tax".

For example, if we're talking about moving from Turan to Dalaim, the person who pays the tax changes. Hence the need to transfer what I call the family registry in my world.

As such, we also have to communicate exactly which houses will become vacant and which new residents will live in. To manage tax payments, that would have been a natural story. Empty houses and others are placed under the control of the lord of the land, and it is never acceptable for someone to live on their own.

So, it's a settlement by the forest.

Until now, it was impossible for a human being without a forest people to settle in a forest settlement. Therefore, the arrangements around it were not in place at all.

By the way, Barsha and I were officially treated as "guests."

We are temporarily staying in a forest settlement, just as travelers are staying in the lodging town. The Balshas still treat me like that, officially, even when I was recognized as a family by the woods.

Well, I was an unidentified expatriate who supposedly came from outside the sea, so I guess the nobles of Genos, after all their worries, allowed me freedom of movement. Public treatment of guests did not lead to a situation where I was forbidden to name the people by the woods.

Based on that background, Michelles.

Michelle avoided complicating things and took the stance that she was a guest just like Barsha.

Even now he is only a resident of Turan, but due to various circumstances he leans himself into a settlement by the woods. As always, taxes continue to be paid to Turan. By retaining that position, he was allowed to live in a forest settlement without any hassle.

That's it, there was nothing wrong with it.

What bothered me, however, was the departure of Schmiral, who would soon return to Genos.

Schmiral hopes to join Vina-Lou's son-in-law.

If that fringe came together well, it would be necessary to pack this story with the nobility of Genos again. My presence was supposed to be snobbishly tolerated by the confusion of the Cycleus case, but Schmiral is not in that position either, just purely hoping to be part of the people by the woods.

When an outside human being desires to live permanently in a forest neighbourhood settlement, according to what law, what judgment will he give you? The nobles of Genos should have had to make a formal arrangement about the case, which was done without Yea when I was there.

But I guess that was an inevitable path.

In the first place, the status quo, in which no marriage to an external human being was envisaged, was a stranger story.

The same people of Genos, but only the people by the woods, are placed in a heterogeneous environment. Even if that peculiarity nurtured the toughness of the people by the woods, we don't all live alone by the woods, so I guess we'll need to revise the law and the learning in those parts in the future.

As for the taxes currently exempt, I suppose they should be paid anyway. Or should I still aspire to a rich life without starvation, I thought so.

But well, they are all stories of the future.

As far as taxes are concerned, of course, Schmiral hasn't come back to Genos yet, so it has been inexplicable to haunt his head from now on.

So I think the last two days can be hailed as having passed without any major turbulence.

The only thing that could have happened was if there had been a turmoil - after all, it could have been on hand in Ravitz's settlement.

◇

"Today is the third day of your promise, isn't it? I got a little rushed, but I still think I managed to tell you what I wanted to tell you"

In the time of Ravitz's main house, I made him declare it that way.

It is the last day of the deadline given by Day-Ravitz. I was still an hour after closing business in the Inn Town today. Which time was used to guide the cooking.

There are six members, the same as on the first day. Its representative Lily-Lavitz has, as always, bowed his head lightly with a face like that of a vault.

"Thank you for your help until today. Tomorrow, I'm going to tell the other women about this move."

"Yes, so I'd be very happy if you all found joy in something called delicious food"

But they were as polite as they were approximate after three days and did not try to get a peek into their own moods.

Even if they tried different dishes, the answer "I think it's delicious" just came back, and they never wanted to make a scene like the other clan women.

But after all, it seemed to me that it was consciously suppressing emotions.

Especially the only young people, such as Vin's ladies, whose eyes are glowing and swallowing a voice of surprise every time they try it, came across in different ways.

"Then I think we should both get ready for dinner. Please be careful and welcome home."

"Oh, if you like, may I take a tour of how they make supper?

To my offer, Lily-Ravitz tilted his neck just a little.

"How could you do that? I'm not allowed to borrow the human hand of the extra house to make supper..."

"I won't get my hands on it. Even the mouth, I'm going to try to keep it as low as possible. Tomorrow the lodging town business is also vacant, so I thought I'd wait for Day-Ravitz to return. While we wait for that, could you give us a tour of how much hassle you guys have been wearing?

"Ha..."

Much less, Lily-Lavitz allowed us to stay.

The women of Vin and Naham have to go back to their homes, so we have two members there to accompany them. The Thur-din and Rats ladies are the Vins, the Yun-Sudra and Dagola ladies are the Nahams, and me and Fay-Baim are this Ravits.

Lily-Lavitz began working on the dinner schedule with another lady who was attending the hands-on. They won't increase their numbers any more.

"By the way, what kind of dedication do you plan to make today?

"Yes. Parents are told to show off their hands-on achievements, so I think I'll serve one dish I learned"

That said, the ingredients that can be used are Aria and Poitan, along with rock salt and Pico leaves and fruit liquor. In a way, it was like being able to manage to finish the handiwork even in the short time of three days because the ingredients were so limited.

Lily-Lavitz was putting water on an iron pan and working on making 'Giva Soup'.

The other ladies are starting to simmer Poitan. We still have about two hours left before sunset, so it would also be possible to finish the baked poitan, well.

So far, I can't feel the need to make an extra mouthful.

Like the Dai family and other clan women, they were diligent and honest.

(The men seem to be quite handy, but we never had a hard time with that aspect, did we?)

Of course, the men and the women, no, no, they're not handy. If you don't like it, you just have to turn it down, so it's self-evident.

As far as the men are concerned, it can be inferred that because of the low amount of Giva captured in the first place, it is difficult to move forward with the clues. And yet, the progress is lagging behind in order not to allow the Ai-Fas to help with their hunting work.

(I wonder what kind of benevolence that Day-Ravitz is)

The only thing I cared about was that.

Ravitz is a parent, and he is the head of that house. Just as the intentions of Luu's clan are laid back in the hands of Donda-Lu, the intentions of Ravitz, Vin and Naham should have been largely dictated by his thoughts.

It seems to me that it is also Day-Ravitz's intention that the Lily-Ravits do not attempt to reveal their emotions. Or maybe they're just faithfully guarding the forestside lesson that they draw a line with their opponents who don't have blood edges.

(The Graph-Zazas are the same pattern that defeated Cycleus together, and Baim's house was able to tie the edge through it because Gaz and Ratz are neighbors. I can't say that I can call you my friend yet, but I could still know what you think.)

But this is my first meeting with the Ravitz people.

To be precise, I should be near-missed with Day-Ravitz at the Conference of Parents, but I don't remember speaking personally. He had a personalized look, so he shouldn't forget that if he had contacts.

That is how they are the families that are against the works of Pha's house.

The fact seemed to make me feel good in the last three days.

The northern clan was felt to have a rather exclusive temperament. The three families of Zaza, Dom, and Jean alone are the ones who have settled on the northern edge of the woods and weighed their own lessons. It seems to me that I have now bonded with the family of one street, but I have never seen anyone wearing Gibba's skull or head fur besides the northern clan.

The northern clan is also, among other things, a brave temperament. I therefore think it will be strongly felt that deepening interaction with the people of the town will lead to the depravity of the people by the woods.

And the family of Baim was a family with no small grudges against the people of the city.

The town's outlaws have harmed his family, and the head of his former family, who has avenged him, has been brought to justice as a sinner.

For such reasons and circumstances, they have a negative view of commerce in residential towns and interaction with people in towns.

What stance, then, is Ravitz's head of household against the deeds of Fa's house?

That's what I care about right now.

(I couldn't face that way back late yesterday, so let's stick around till the end of the day and wait for Day-Ravitz to come back. If I miss this opportunity, I may not have a chance to exchange words until the Conference of Parents)

That's what I was thinking.

(Since today is the 14th of the month of gold, is there just six months left until the Conference of Parents? In those six months, we'll have to do just what we can to convince Day-Ravitz and Graf-Zaza and Baim's parents)

To be honest, if it is a majority battle, it seems that the result is already there.

Unless the Sauti family, a neutral position, turned to the other side, the majority of the people by the woods should have endorsed the deeds of Fa's house.

But that is not an overwhelming majority, even by a majority: 37 Of a certain family, Zaza has seven families, Baim has two families, and Ravitz has three, so twelve families are still in opposite positions.

I don't know the exact number because the number of people varies from family to family, but if they are still twelve families within 37, that extends to nearly a third.

If that's the case, I wanted to keep my hands together with all the people and go down the road.

If we set foot on a new path, a new ordeal is set to stand. If that kind of new ordeal stands in exchange for a life without suffering from hunger, we all want to get over it together. I was so, so strong.

"... you're a stranger, Asta"

And Lily-Lavitz crumbled to the lid.

"You are an exotic people, why would you try to relate to the people by the woods like that?

"That's because I find it strongly appealing to the people by the woods. I grew up in a town, but I have a strong desire to be recognized as a compatriot by the forest people."

"But you have already become Fa's family and the Chiefs have acknowledged that as well. Still, you're behaving like a man in town, doing everything you can to change the lives of the people by the woods, right? Do you think that the people of the woods are doing the wrong thing?

As quiet as your vault, Lilli-Lavitz said so.

"In a way, maybe you are. I believe that the Sung family was once struck by such a fate because they had problems with the way they interacted with the people and nobles of the town. That's why I thought we should spin the right edge with the people of Genos.... and I'm wondering if the Ai-Fa and Donda-Lou are forgiving me for what I did because I sympathized with it"

…………

"If I were a man in the town of Genos, I might have thought from the town's human point of view that I should spin the right edge with the people by the woods. Whatever it is, I think what I want most is for people to be connected on the right edge."

Lily-Lavitz pressed silently, even continuing to carve Aria.

Neither will the other lady or Fay-Baim try to open their mouths.

That's how time passed, and when the preparation under the dish ended openly, people's signs approached.

The hunters have returned from the woods.

When the door was pulled open, the familiar bald head burst out.

"After all, you were still sitting there. I thought it was because Totos was here."

"Good luck. How was your achievement today?

"Hmm. Blood draining and doing it probably succeeded. Gibbs is in the process of being skinned over there by sending him to the branch."

Then Fay-Baim came in next to me.

"Asta, then let me show you how to treat your organs. Even now, one street will be able to teach."

"Oh, well, so am I."

"It's time for Asta to go home, and she won't be able to make it to dinner, will she? Please go home first. I will take you back from Sung's settlement in a luggage truck."

Sung's rep is Sudra, and there are only four hunters over there, so it should certainly be possible to ride with him.

And for me, I've already notified I-Fa that dinner will be late tonight, but when I was faking it, it was about time for sunset on my way home.

"Okay. Now ask Yun-Sudra not to let Fay-Baim be left behind. I think you should ask her to wait on the road and pull over if Sudra's luggage gets through."

"Yes, I will now speak to everyone to return here except Yun-Sudra"

Faye-Beim slipped through Day-Ravitz's throat and left.

After dropping it off sideways, Day-Ravitz steps in just a few moments.

"Hmm. You've prepared a lot of different meals."

"Yes, as you said, we have everything we have learned from Asta"

Lily-Lavitz bows his head with a seemingly trivial trick.

Already nearing completion were three dishes: 'giva soup' and baked potatoes, plus stewed fruit liquor dishes.

Furthermore, it is ready under "Giva Steak" and "Meat Dumplings", fried rose meat and aria. This was all the dedication communicated to the people of Ravitz in the last three days.

"Thank you for your hard work. This is the end of Kamado's gesture. If you have a job at home, you can go home."

Throw it away that way, and Day-Ravitz just goes outside.

I said goodbye to Lily-Lavitz and the others, and then I went after them.

"Wait, Day-Ravitz - Ah, good day, Ai-Fa"

"Uhm."

On the front of Day-Ravitz, Ai-Fa stood up.

Has Birdu-Fow accompanied me to Fay-Baim? There is no other shadow.

"Day-Ravitz, I beg your pardon for this. Just before you do, could you just let me talk to you for a second?

"Talk? What the hell are you talking about?

"Ravitz would like to know why you are opposed to Fa's actions and why"

To make it easier for Day-Ravitz to talk, I proceeded to walk instead of Ai-Fa.

Day-Ravitz has his eyes slightly narrowed under his hairless brow.

"What's the point of purposefully speaking such a story?

"Yes, I've learned so much about Zaza and Baim's parents that I'd like to know how you feel about Ravitz's parents, if possible."

"You're my favorite person. Well, I guess I wouldn't even bother to get to a place like this if I didn't."

Day-Ravitz has put his arms together and compared me to Ai-Fa with his bottom line eyes.

"Well, if you want to hear it, let me hear it. I'm not willing to lie or hide my feelings."

"Yes, thank you -"

"I don't care about you guys."

Whispering my words, Day-Ravitz said it very lightly.

"Ki, I don't care, do you?

"Hmm. I hate you guys. Did you think they liked you?

But still, I couldn't feel any malice, hostility, etc. from what happened to Day-Ravitz.

Ai-Fa also listens to Day-Ravitz with a very quiet face.

"To a hunter of women who does not fulfill the work of the women, it is my turn not to fulfill the work of the men, besides the fact that one of its cracks is a foreigner who is not a forest people. I don't care much about exotics naming people by the woods or shallow people acknowledging it as a family. If you hang on, that's all we're talking about."

"Oh, really? Well, I'm sure it's a very normal mood for people by the woods."

"Naturally. I don't think so. The folks at Fou and Luu are the ones who think they're crazy. Not to mention, how can you be forgiven for accepting such exotic ideas and disobeying them from the learning"

There was nothing at all to be concerned about, and Day-Ravitz had just stated so.

"So I don't even care if you guys go in and out of Ravitz's house. If the handrail ends today, I'll blame you. Why don't you cut to work, too, Fa's parents?

"I don't think so. Your hands are still in jeopardy. In any case, the rest period is a few days away, so let me go to this Ravitz house until the end."

Ai-Fa also responded that way in the usual majestic tone.

"Besides, I think he finally got good at it when he told me he didn't care about eating it face to face. In that mood, you followed my words without complaining."

"Can you imitate such a loss of gratitude to teach things? If it's for a good meal, it kills your feelings."

Then you wanted to have a delicious meal.

"Naturally. Otherwise, you guys are invited to the house. The parents of my family, Naham and Vin, will be distracted by this delicious meal."

Ai-Fa narrowed her eyes slightly.

But that was never the way to narrow your eyes when you were grumpy.

"You're a delightful man. Even if you hate me, I prefer you. It's a shame the house isn't close."

"Don't let the fool out. I have a beloved wife."

"You're the one, don't let the fool out. What do hunters say I liked in that sense?"

Saying so, Ai-Fa shrugged her shoulders small.

"Anyway, it was Asta who wanted to talk to you. It's almost sunset, so clean it up soon."

"Yeah, well, be as brief as you can"

Under the purple-dyed sky I stared back at Day-Ravitz from the front.

"Day-Ravitz. Can't you even lend the ladies from Ravitz's house, like Baim's?

Day-Ravitz, with the same look on his face, twisted me, "What? has responded."

"That's another much crazier offer. You weren't listening to me? Why should I leave my precious family with a frigid person like you?"

"That's mostly to deepen understanding. We want you to see with your eyes whether Fa's house is doing the wrong thing."

"It's not necessary. My feelings have already been set."

Listening only to words makes me feel so rejected that I can't even take them away.

But in the flickering hesitation, I was finding a slight hope.

"Day-Ravitz, Donda-Lou and the other parents didn't accept my existence unconditionally. Especially Donda-Lou and others, who called my existence poison, didn't quite try to admit it. Even when lending a hand to the lodging town business, I was told to give me my right arm if I betrayed the trust of the people by the woods."

"Hmm. As a parent who binds the clan, that's natural."

"Yes, that's how the house of Fa and the house of Luu were able to let us build trust over a long period of time. I want to have that relationship with Ravitz's house."

"So, my feelings have already been set..."

"But don't you know little about me or about Ai-Fa?

Taking their stock, I let Day-Ravitz whisper his words.

Day-Ravitz twist my face a little like this.

"Besides, you said you didn't even know Donda-Lou or Birdu-Fou. To me, they're irreplaceable, too. I want you to know exactly how they embraced frigid people like me."

"Hmm. Do you have a sense that you are a frigid person"

"Of course it is. There will be no one else who feels it harder than me."

It is an unmistakable heart.

That's why I'm so grateful to people like me for accepting my existence.

"If you don't like me, you hate me, and I want you to see it properly to the bottom of your sexual roots. Can you not just hate it after checking up on the top, but someone named me to the inside? Then I have nothing to complain about."

"You're a persistent one. Besides being an exotic, there's nothing I can admit to a man who doesn't do his job as a hunter."

"If I were to say that, the North would never recognize you as decent hunters."

And Ai-Fa came to the lid with his mouth.

"You weigh your lives above all else. I guess, therefore, it yields less than the rest of the family. If you are a brave northern clan, it should feel like an inert deed"

"Hmm. It's my job as a parent to decide what Ravitz does. I'm not going to let you talk to me there, though, Chieftain."

"I know. For my part, I don't think that's the wrong thing to do. I think hunters should live a long day and keep doing their job for a long day."

While I = fa remained dignified, I still felt like I was smiling just under my eyes.

"For my part, where I had no family, I did my giva hunting job without turning back the danger. I used to do 'sacrifice hunting' more often than I do now, and even thought it would be my main hope if I were to decay into the woods with it. … I guess that was recklessness because I didn't have a family waiting at home"

"It's a stupid thing. If you die in that young body, you don't even know what you were born for. … there are many people who are young and soul-fed, even if they don't want to, so those who don't should do everything in their power to live a little longer"

"Mm-hmm. I've finally figured out what you're thinking that way in the last few days. That's why I can't hate you.... and I guess this is something I felt because I was in the woods along with it for a few days"

…………

"To be honest, at first I thought I was neglecting you. He seemed unkeen on his giva hunting job, and he felt like he was a stubborn, narrow-minded person. I came to think otherwise because I could still spend a long time with it. Could you give this Asta a chance? As a parent of Fa, I'd like to wish it on you from me."

Day-Ravitz stroked his lumpy bald head as he sighed.

"It's a hassle. If this were the case, I shouldn't have invited you guys home."

"You're the one who lost the meal, so it would be inexplicable to regret it now. And I guess that kind of trouble and vulnerability is your fault. So like that, you're a mess."

"Don't talk to me like I like you a lot in people's houses"

"I'm saying whatever you want, you haven't."

Maybe Ai-Fa is better at exchanging words with someone who isn't than someone who comes to favor or good intentions. My tongue even feels smoother than usual.

"Day-Ravitz, would you like to think about it? I'm going to understand that you weigh the edges of blood. But I believe that, after weighing that lesson, we should bond more firmly with each other, even those clans that don't have blood edges. That way, can the people by the woods have stronger powers than they do now?

"So even if you don't even have a kid in the woods to say such a clever thing..."

"Asta is a forest folk. I admitted to being a family member, and the chiefs never gave me credit for it. In that regard, I will not give in."

After saying it in a much stronger tone, Ai-Fa softens her expression all the time.

"Day-Ravitz, shouldn't man be ordained to exist by the likeness of his soul? Even if you were born in the woods, if you stepped off the road like Zazz-Sung once did, you wouldn't allow the woods, and even if you were born exotic, if you weighed the end of the woods above all, I think you could be an important compatriot."

"Hmm. A man named Asta, the exotic, has a soul worthy of the people by the woods," he said?

"I have. If this word was false, I shall return my soul to my mother's forest now."

Day-Ravitz sighed again, this time looking at the dusk sky.

"... oh, it's bothersome from the bottom of my heart"

"Don't bother. Choose the right path as a parent that binds dozens of families."

Day-Ravitz has shaken his head and compared us with a slightly puffed eye.

"I can't decide what's important like this by myself. Even tomorrow, I'll discuss it with Naham and Vin's parents. So today, go home already."

"Is that true? Thanks!

"Don't make a mistake. What we're discussing is whether or not to lend the women. No matter how I repeat words, I don't like women hunters, men's kamadoku numbers, etc."

And Day-Ravitz returned the blemishes, and walked away unto the house without a goodbye greeting.

I turn to Ai-Fa and then step out to the gills connected to the trees.

"Damn, you were a funny bunch of men. People by the woods, and I've never seen a human without a grasp like that."

"Sure. But neither can I. I don't like that guy. So extra, I want you to know more about yourself and what Fa's house does."

After I answered that way, I stared at the side of Ai-Fa once again.

"Uh, I-Fa, thank you, huh?

"Hmm? What are you talking about?

"No, you swore to my soul that I deserved the people of the woods."

Then I - Fa - have been staring at me with a blind eye that has probably spoiled my mood.

"Is that a story that needs such words of gratitude? I just said the obvious."

"I know, but aren't you glad to be put into words again? Don't be so mad at me."

"... there's nothing to be angry about"

"Then don't shake it."

"Not even the shin! Don't make it difficult!

That's how Ai-Fa tried to get her lips together, but she pulled it back in as she remembered along the way.

"Whatever it is, it doesn't change that Day-Ravitz is against our doing. We should continue to do everything in our power to ensure the approval of all our people."

"Yeah, I think so, too."

Again, Ai-Fa doesn't think it's okay to win a majority battle, etc.

With six months left, how bright can we show our compatriots the end? I couldn't help but squeeze my strength in the future.

(And Schmiral too -)

Schmiral must also be recognized by the people of the woods if he intends to fulfill his thoughts.

I was still reminded of how difficult it was.

(But if you're Schmiral, you're sure to be okay. Schmiral is stronger than I am, and he's supposed to have a lot of sense in this world)

So hurry up, I want you to look healthy in front of everyone.

As I set my carrier's apparatus in Gill's belly, thinking that way, I - Fa - have long been closing my face.

"Asta, what are you looking so anxious about?

"Huh? No, nothing.... I was just worried about Schmiral's late return."

"What is Schmiral, that eastern people? Unlike Michelle and the others, he said he had the power to protect himself, so don't worry about it."

That said, Ai-Fa had a slightly shaky eye.

"... don't look like a toddler lost in the way with such a thing. You'll be worried about this one."

"Oh, I'm sorry.... I-Fa is overprotective."

I got kicked in the leg.

"No, it's not. I-Fa tried to be sweet and say," I replaced it with another word because it's so hard to light. "

I got kicked in the leg about two more times.

While I'm doing that, the Tour-dins come back from the square.

Before they arrived here, I whispered to Ai-Fa early.

"... tomorrow the i-fa and the others are off on a hands-on job too, right?

"Mm-hmm. There are only a few periods left that I can handle, but when I should rest, I should rest"

I breathed relief in those words.

"Tomorrow is also a holiday for business in Inn Town, so now it's time for everyone to rest from morning to evening. Well, in the evening, I'm gonna need you to help me get ready for the day after tomorrow."

"Uhm."

"... I'm glad to see you relaxing with Ey-Fa for the first time"

I wondered if they would kick me in the leg again, but I couldn't help but say those thoughts in my chest.

But Ai-Fa had turned a calmer gaze towards me than she expected, and she just nodded "um".

That was how the sun finally set and the rest of the rest of the rest of the rest of the rest of the day combined.
