Isekai Ryouridou
Farewell feast (2) ~ Beginning of the feast ~
After that, we were able to proceed smoothly without being hit by any accidents.
After about four hours, about halfway down the two moments, the people who were encouraging the business of the stalls return. It was said that there was nothing wrong with the peace in the station town itself.
"The architects said that they should be able to come before sunset without any problems. I'm looking forward to the feast.”
It was the women of Ratz who were the stewardesses who told me such words.
Then they took a short pause, and then began to prepare the feast. Rey-Matua, who played the role of partitioner from here, remained stirred up from the morning.
As the supervisor, I patrol all the razor shacks, but work is going on everywhere without any problems. It seemed that there were no technical problems because it was now routine to prepare elaborate banquet meals for the family of Fow, run by Yun Sudra, the family of Ravitz, run by Malfira-Naham, and the family of Zaza, run by Tuul-Din.
And as the sun leaned westward, men came from every village. Due to the limited number of wagons, some clans end their work early to come and deliver the wagons to another clan. Even so, the Luu family had three new luggage carts to store their young children in the cathedral, so it seemed that they had been able to use them much more effectively.
(Even so, you still look awesome.)
Since the house of Fa was a partitioner, we know in advance how many people from which clan will participate. However, it was a pleasure on the day to see what kind of person would be involved, but it seemed that either the parent of the main house or his eldest brother was always incorporated in any clan, and there was no doubt that it was a frivolous face even if it was not.
From the blood of Luu are Gazran-Rutim, Dan-Rutim, Dim-Rutim, Lau-Ray, Giran-Lirin, Shmiral-Lirin, and Ji-Mahm. From the small family, there are well-known opponents such as Bardu-Fow, Lyerfam-Sudra, Chim-Sudra, Jow-Lang, Day-Ravitz, Mora-Naham, and from the family of Zaza, Georg-Zaza, Dick-Dom, Rudd-Rid, Zey-Din, and the patriarch Dali-Sauthi.
Besides, even though I don't know the name, there are many other people who have been related to me in the past two years, such as the patriarch of Baem, who is a little stubborn and sweet, the young patriarch of the thriving Rats, the patriarch of Sun, who has a sincere and calm temper, the young patriarch of serious and hard-working Vera, the young patriarch of Dana, who has exceptional power as a hunter, the eldest brother of Havira, and the eldest brother of Jean, who has a wide body similar to his father.
Moreover, since all the people involved in the work of the stalls are participating, it was not an exaggeration to say that the opponents I was gathered with were all over the place. In addition, even if they were not involved in the stalls, the faces of Mill Fei-Sauthi, Eer-Fow-Sudra, Sufila-Zaza, and Morne-Rutim-Dom were driven out to prepare banquet dishes, so at least it seemed that all the opponents whose names I knew were involved.
(In the male circle, I can think of some old people such as Moga-Sauthi and Ra-Rutim, Diga and Dodd, Deal-Die and Masa-Fo-Ran, etc.)
When I thought about it, I thought about one thing. [M] Many people did not attend the crowd of women with young children, such as Vina Luu-Lilyn, Ul-Ray-Lilyn, Li-Sudra, and Saris Lan-Fou.
(Oh, and I haven't seen Jas-din or May Jean-Zaza. As expected, it is impossible for an unknown opponent to flourish.)
However, only the people on the edge of the forest gathered 180 people. Also, since this was the first feast covering all clans, there was no doubt that it was groundbreaking.
With that in mind, while working solemnly - at last, the faces of the architects have arrived.
Just in the middle of the last look around, I'm going to go out and say hello with my feet. There weren't even half a minute left until sundown, and the food was almost ready.
Under the guidance of Rud-Lou and Sin-Lou, the architect's wagon was taken to the back of the house. I was dressed up to call from the side.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I've been waiting for you." Thank you very much for your time today. ”
"Ah, Asta, I thought I was ready for this... but this is a terrible commotion."
Ardath smiles back at me with admiration. The square was already full of men, and it was quite busy.
"Last time, there were less than 100 people, including all the architects." Even then, it was a sufficiently groundbreaking event. "
"Breakthrough?"
"Yes, it was originally the custom of the people around the forest to have a feast with only blood relatives, so it was the first time that such a large number of clans had gathered together."
"So, you said that all the clan members would gather today." Somehow, I'm sorry for that. "
"Is that the best you can do?" It was Rudo = Lou who spoke.
"In the past year, it seems that the number of families involved in stall business has increased considerably. Nowadays, all you have to do is get involved in the stalls and count the clans, right?"
“Yes. The only people that aren't involved in the stall are the Soutie and Die blood family, the Zaza blood family, excluding Din and Rid, and Fow and Lan.”
"But, Sudra is Fow's blood." The only people who really didn't have anything to do with it were the Soutie and Die blood family. So, Sutti is a chieftain, so we can't just leave the die alone. "
Having said that, Rud-Lou spilled his white teeth.
"Well, it's on our own to gather such a large number, so I don't think you need to be sorry." It's time to have fun and make some noise on Easter, right? "
“Yeah, don't worry about it, it'll blow your mind when you get drunk.”
And Ardath smiled cheerfully, and arrived at the back of a certain family home.
I say goodbye to the builders and head for your cabin. It was a hut run by Marfila-Naham.
"Good job. How are you getting ready for this?"
"Ha, ha, yes. Just now, everything is ready. I'm sorry it's so close to the limit."
"You don't have to apologize for anything. Good work, everyone else. If you're ready, change your clothes.”
Even today, unmarried women were to receive guests in banquet costumes.
With the exception of Lili-Lavitz, the people who worked here were all unmarried women, so they left the cabin in a hurry. And then Lili-Lavitz, who doesn't need to hurry, approaches me.
"I think I just heard people laughing in the south. You've arrived there safely, too.”
“Yes, I think we can start the feast as soon as you're all dressed.”
"I see. I was allowed to come to this feast last year... but in just one year, things have changed a lot."
Only Lilli-Lavitz and Malfira-Naham should have been part of last year's farewell party. This year, the number of people who can form one team, including the family of Vin, is called. And there were about the same number of men in the audience.
"Perhaps this lord represents the change of the forest as it is. If you think about it like that... it's going to be really scary."
I see. If there's anything unsettling--
"If you are uneasy, I will talk to the parents. Let's take a closer look at the changes around the forest with our parents today.”
Having said that, Lili-Lavitz turned a smile like that of Jizo-sama into a gentle smile. It is a smile that is inherited by the eldest brothers of the sons, and it is unprovoked.
But their smiles never made me feel uneasy. I hope that the family members with conservative temper will see the transformation of the forest side with even tougher eyes.
"Please also say hello to Day-Lavitz. Now, if you'll excuse me."
When I say goodbye to Lili-Lavitz, I patrol the other huts. Sutti and Fow's team had already finished their work, so all that's left is a mixed squad and the Zaza blood family headed by Toole-Din.
However, just as the team of mixed troops had finished their work, Morne Rutim-Dom was waiting with her companion in front of the main house, not in the hut of Zaza's blood family.
“Having just finished my work, everyone else went out to get dressed. Is there anything I can help you with?”
"No, we were all able to finish our work safely." Good work, Morne Rutim-Dom. "
Morn Rutim-Dom has a companion, so he doesn't need to change.
She and I met each other at the banquet in the station town, but as usual, the calm that was newly obtained at the wedding was mixed with the brightness. Short hair cut from the side of her neck also looked good on her.
Dick = Dom, a loyal companion, is as powerful as ever. Having a robust body of more than 190 centimeters, Dick = Dom has been looking at me with black eyes shining in the shadow of Gibba's skull.
"Asta has been entrusted with such a big banquet, so thank you very much."... even though I don't even have a relationship with the architect, I can still be somewhat distracted... "
I see? Dick-Dom was in the station town frequently on Easter Festival, so I didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
"Well, compared to the rest of the blood family, except for Din and Rid, I think it was a little face-to-face..."
"There are only two such families invited, including Dom, so I don't think you need to refrain from anything."
Then Morn Rutim-Dom smiled with a gentle face.
“I'm sure the parents are uncomfortable with Digga and Dodd. They are always looking forward to seeing their families at Luu's feast... and I think it's a shame that they joined Luu's feast instead.”
“But you can't order Mr. Nakamura's family to take charge.”
While responding with a heavy voice, Dick = Dom's gaze is also gentle. He, too, had made a big difference at the wedding.
"Dom and Rutim are thinking of deepening their ties in the future, right?" I hope Diggas will have more opportunities to come here. "
"Hmm. First of all, I'd like to feel free to hold a feast." I hope that today's feast will serve as a trigger. "
"I'm sure Donda-Lou feels the same way." I hope so too. "
When I answered that, a new group approached us. These are the elderly women of Lu's bloodline, led by Mother Meir Ray.
"Asta, we've put all our dishes on the table." If you haven't already, can I help you? "
"Ah, it would be helpful if you could do that." I think we're all still getting dressed. "
"It's mostly young women who come from the other side." Well then, let's get on with it. "
Then Dick-Dom leaned his head back slightly.
"I think I can help you if you're carrying the package... but if you're a man, don't you think you have a lot of free time?"
"There are many men who don't know how to add or subtract strength." If you ruin the banquet dish, it will be very difficult, so I will try not to rely on it as much as possible. "
I see. If you commit such a mistake, no matter how much you apologize, I won't forgive you.
Dick-Dom laughed thinly, and Mom smiled amusedly.
Then, Morne Rutim-Dom and I joined the group and carried the banquet from one end to the other. Every time, the men in the square cheered.
Along the way, Lilli-Lavitz and Mill Fei-Sauthi join in, and the work will be completed soon.
"No, it's clean. It's clean." Your food just looks delicious, and I'm getting hungry. "
While saying that, he laughed at me, only the mother of a beautiful woman with golden brown hair - Lau = Ray, a young, vibrant woman who would never have the same number of grandchildren as her four children.
"Thank you for your help. It's been a while since I've seen you.”
"Yeah. I think such a feast should bring out young people." Somehow, this time, it turned out to be me.
Having said that, she smiled with a face similar to her son's.
"Well, Luu alone will have a lot of toddlers, so I'll take care of them as well." If that's the case, then it would be worth the trip of such an elderly person. "
"Don't say that, but enjoy the feast." Even at your usual feast, you're always looking after your toddlers. "
Meer Ray's mother also comes into the conversation with a bitter smile. Rau-Ray's mother looks abnormally young, but she's probably both of them.
"Rather than making a fuss at a feast, I'd rather take care of my toddler." I wonder if it's a reaction that I was making a fool of myself when I was young. Well, it would be better to get rid of it than to make a fool of it when you get older. "
"Dan = Rutim hasn't changed at all over the years, and I don't think I'm a nuisance." Sometimes I want to enjoy fruit and wine with you. "
Ahaha, you're welcome to have a quiet drink with mea.
So when I unexpectedly shouted "ah", the two of them turned their gaze towards me.
"What's the matter, let out a funny voice." Did we say something strange? "
"Ah, no. This is all about now... I think Meer Ray-Lou was born in Ray." So, were you two childhood friends? "
Rau-Ray's mother rolled her eyes and smiled, "Oh."
"I see. You called on me without Mr Meir." So you figured out that I didn't marry Ray anywhere else? "
“Yes, and I remember hearing that it was Ray's house that gave birth to a lot of blonde hair.”
"Your insight. Me and Meir were born into the Ray family." So, I joined Ray's main house, and Meer joined Lu's main house. "
“I see. You weren't born and raised in the same house. I was calling her without her, so I was thinking about the possibility of a sister.”
"Ahahah. I have a cluttered root." Well, you and me were getting along like real sisters. "
Rau-Ray's mother laughed gently, and Mother Meir-Ray laughed as if she had been stung. It's kind of asexual, and it's a warm chest.
"It's nice to be able to get along with your grandchildren from an early age. I think I envy you somehow."
"What are you talking about, young man!" I'm sure you'll be getting along with a similar person in 20 years! "
Rau-Ray's mother slapped me on the back and then clawed her hand.
"I touched you cheaply." Please keep it a secret from Ai = Fa. "
"Ah, no, it's forbidden to hide things in Fa's house..."
"Then it doesn't matter." I feel like Ei = Fa is blaming you, not me. "
And Rau-Ray's mother spills a charming smile. She has a youthful expression, not only on her face.
"Well, I'll see what Sati looks like." If my youngest child is asleep, I want Sati to enjoy the feast too. "
It's as impatient as ever, isn't it?
With a bitter smile, Meer Ray's mother also chased Rau-Ray's mother. While watching the back, I was caught in a small emotion.
(In the past two years or so, I've had a lot of people spin my fate, but... I wonder what I still don't know.)
Then suddenly I was called "Asta" from behind, and I jumped up to "Uhea".
"What's going on?" Isn't it time to come to Donda = Luu? "
When I looked back, there was a glowing figure of Ei = Fa.
Ai = Fa arranged to wear the banquet costume only at the wedding feast, but she also wore the banquet costume at last year's farewell party, and the surrounding ladies begged her to bring the banquet costume with her.
Even at Princess Del Share's dinner party, I was just disturbed by the beauty of Ei = Fa. But at that time, my heart was shaken unbeatably by the banquet costume on the forest side that I could see in the crackling.
The banquet costumes and décor of the castle town look just right for Ai-Fa. Dressing up at a masquerade ball was a spectacular beauty. Even so, I was strongly reminded that the most suitable costume for Ei = Fa was the banquet costume by the forest.
My hair decorations and necklaces are worn as they should be. In addition, the golden brown hair flowing down his back with the jade insect Vale and Shawl shone vaguely in the dusk darkness - Ai = Fa was as beautiful as a dream.
"... that's why every time you wrap up a banquet costume, you skip your mind"
And then Ei = Fa, who had dyed her cheeks in shame, came up to me. Isn't it hard for me to realize that it will stir my mind even more?
"No, I'm sorry. There's nothing I can do to suppress this." If that's why you say it-- "
Eifa sealed off my floating words by gently kicking my leg.
"Anyway, let's go to Donda = Luu." Today's feast is a partition between Lu and Fa. "
That's how we pushed through the humans' fallen square and set our sights on Luu's main house.
There is a large rug laid out in front of the main house, with Donda-Lou and Grandmother Ziba, and Dalí-Souti and Georgian-Zaza sitting on it. Georg = Zaza was the one who shouted "Oh" when he noticed us.
"Seeing your banquet costume is also about crack." I don't think it's a huntress at all, it's a big figure. "
Is the appearance of a large layer a compliment that does not contradict the habits of nearby forests? Ai = Fa did not try to raise his voice in silence.
And when Granny Jibba praised her for being of the same sex, Ai = Fa was so solemn that her feelings of shame were overshadowed. However, shaking my supple shoulders like I couldn't hold back my shyness shouldn't have made me feel so lovable.
Then, after waiting for the brief greeting to end, Donda = Luu shouted heavily.
"It's almost time for the sun to hide." Have you finished preparing for the women? "
Hmmm. It looks like the women who started the dressing up last have finished their clothes and come out.
"Well then, shall we start?" I want my guests here. "
The architect seemed to be waiting close by, and was quickly guided. The first thing to do is to cheer on the beauty of Ei = Fa.
"Wow, the other daughters were in big shape too, but after all, Ei = Fa is in the wrong place!"
Oh, this is a big layer!
And I repeat that the faces of the architects are also large layers. By the way, you must have heard a compliment from someone who didn't touch the customs of Moribe. Even though it should have been a very sincere thought, Ai-Fa was still struggling to complain.
"Well then, I think we should start the feast." First of all, I and the people of Pharaoh will greet you, so I want the guests to be on the spot. "
Donda = Luu sent an angry scream to the square where 200 humans had spoken.
"Brothers and sisters around the forest, be quiet!" From now on, I will say hello to the beginning of the feast! "
The faces of the architects were soaring, their necks clenched, and the plaza was quiet as if it had struck water. With that, the voice of Donda = Lou, whose volume had dropped slightly, echoed.
"Normally, I would ask all humans to reveal their identities, but with this number, it wouldn't be the same!" For this evening's feast, there are more than 40 Lu's family members, just under 40 Lu's family members, and just under 100 other members of the clan! Even though some of them may have completely strange faces, I would like you to properly bond with them without waking them up as compatriots on the edge of the forest! "
With such volume, you can hear the people on the edge of the square. If I wasn't good enough, I might even be able to hear the toddlers indoors.
“And this feast will be a farewell party for the architects of Jagal who are leaving for their hometown tomorrow morning! I don't think there's any reason to wake you up now either... but even if you're born in a different place and you're in a different habit, I want you to respect each other and help me as a friend of another country!"
So Donda = Luu nodded to me and Ai = Fa.
Well then, let the factions say hello!
"Hmm.... This feast was to be handled by Lu Wu and Fa!" If something goes wrong, I want you to tell me or Donda-Ruu right away! "
Ai = Fa delivered a sharp voice, and the square became a little noisy. The gleaming Eye-Fa evokes the sharpness of a commander on the battlefield, so there must be a lot of admiration. In addition, by acting resolutely in this way, Ai = Fa looked even more beautiful.
"In addition, we were able to invite all 37 clan members present around the forest to this feast!" I am proud to be able to complete such a feast! Today, I want you to enjoy the feast while deepening your ties with your bloodline! "
So Ei = Fa turns her gaze toward me.
I regained my breath and went back to comparing myself with 200 people.
"I'm not good at yelling, so just one word!"... I feel the same way as Donda = Luu and Ai = Fa! I've prepared the feast with all my heart, and I hope you can enjoy it and bond with me! ”
All I had to say was that I was about to lose my throat.
And when Donda-Roux tried to speak up again, Baran's darling said, "Okay?” He stepped forward.
"As the representative of the customer, I would like to just say one word"
When Donda = Lou accepted with a greeting, Baran's chest inhaled and waved out a loud voice that could not be beaten by Donda = Lou.
"I am truly grateful to those like us for preparing such a splendid feast!" I swear I will never do evil, so I want you to enjoy the feast together until the end! That's it! "
In the forest, it is customary not to return words or applause at such a time.
But the people in the square are returning their heartfelt gaze to you. Yo, Donda-Lou backed down with satisfaction, and Donda-Lou, who had received an earthen bottle of fruit liquor from Mother Meer-Ray, stepped forward again.
"Today, the guests gave me fruit wine in barrels, so you should drink it all up this evening!" Now, let's begin the farewell feast!...... the fire of the ritual! "
Standing in the center of the square, Lu's bloodline lit up high piles of firewood towers. The flames of the red lotus rose high in the sky, causing the faces of the architects to cheer.
In order to chase it further, a kindling is lit around the outer perimeter of the square. The dusk shadows were wiped out, and the world was filled with an orange glow.
"Blessed be the Mother Forest, the Father God of the West, and the Brother God of the South, the Father God!"
The voice of "Blessings!" was repeated by 200 people.
Literally, it is a chorus that makes my skin chirp. On the spot, a vortex of unprecedented enthusiasm and vitality swirled.
The faces of the architects who were smiling and shouting, many of them are retreating from the sun. So much so that the vitality of the people on the edge of the forest is incredible. Because the number of people is different, it seems that the experience at last year's farewell party will not be used.
Born outside the woods, I can understand the painful feelings of the architects. The unusual vitality of the people around the forest that is released at the feast is a bit scary.
However, when I give myself up to that enthusiasm and vitality, I know how much I can exult and be happy in the last two years or so.
To share that joy, I decided to leave the architects in a hot vortex.
