Isekai Ryouridou

We started doing business at the stall about half a minute before sunset.

There are four Fa houses, three Luu houses, and one Din and one Kimus's Tail Pavilion, bringing the total number of stalls to nine. When it was announced that the sale of food would begin, it was agreed that Namba would rush into those stalls as much as they did.

This is indeed a momentum reminiscent of the Easter festival.

Moreover, half of our customers dress strangely. Coupled with the much dimmer appearance of the night, we were able to experience an extraordinary exhilaration.

In anticipation of the lack of seats in the cafeteria, the rug was spread out in an expanded space. However, they were also told that they were fully booked immediately after starting business.

"Levy! After all, we don't have enough places to sit, so I'm going to spread the rug out two more times!"

Rimi-Lou, who was in charge of the Blue Sky Cafeteria, made such a report. In order to expand the space of the stall, it is necessary to approve and pay for the location of the inn where the stall is rented out.

"Got it. Milan = Mas told me that I can pay for the place tomorrow."... but it's busier than I expected. "

While spilling a bitter smile, Levi threw a fresh noodle into the iron pot with a warm face.

In the interactions, people in the form of underworld dwellers are fussing over fruit and wine. Strictly speaking, the festival began at sunset, but people seemed to be floating around.

"... it feels like the townspeople are losing more moderation than they were on Easter." You don't have to be worried, but you don't need to be swallowed by their enthusiasm. "

And Ai-fa, the guard, spake thus.

I couldn't help but feel noisy - but I was surprised by the drop in enthusiasm until yesterday. In the case of the Easter Festival, there was a grace period before the holiday, so the people in the town had the impression that they were going to take a step forward, but since the Soul Suppression Festival ended in two days, it felt like the tension had peaked in no time.

"Hey Asta, this is a lot more lively than I thought."

And it was Dora's father who called out to me like that.

My dad and Tara wore black cloths, but they didn't turn black around their eyes. In addition, my father clenched Tara's small hand with a vigilant expression of caution.

"I can't wait to take Tara on a walk." Well, it looks like there are more guards than usual... but I'm most relieved that the people around the forest are looking out for me. "

"Yes, if you like, you can still relax in the back after eating." In a few moments, there will be a lot of sightings coming down from the forest. ”

"Oh, well then, let's do it." Thank you for your concern. "

Then my father bought five dishes. The eldest couple and their second son also came along and lined up at another stall. Tara, who was holding the dish with her father, seemed to be burning her cheeks with the unusual heat of the town, with a somewhat uneasy expression on her face.

After that, the customer's legs still don't fit. Even though there was some relief, it felt like the rush was going on all the time. Even the food prepared with 50% more was about to be sold out in less than two moments.

All of a sudden, the cheers suddenly echoed from the direction of the passage, and the huntsmen's eyes were drawn to it.

The people in the stall were turning to the south side of Nokinomi Street. When I looked at what had happened, I saw something black and gigantic running down the street.

"... a shrine to announce the start of the festival."

Ai = Fa tweeted in a cautious voice.

When the sun went down, it was foretold that such things would wander the streets. The sun should be setting, so it probably took that long to get here from Gili Gu Square, the starting point.

If it's a shrine, it's familiar to me.

But it was not the same as the shrine I knew, and it was a gigantic scorpion, with only ten people in charge.

A large wing is fitted with a support rod, which is operated by a different person from the person in charge. In the distance, it looks like a giant raven is gently folding its wings.

The main body of the haribotai is set on a wooden pedestal, and the handlers are wearing black hooded cloaks, and their faces and limbs are dyed black. Everything was pure black, and only the eyes of the raven glowed cold gold.

Surely if I had seen it in the day, it would have been a coarsely baked burrow.

But now, only the lights of the firepit that are equally spaced on the street can be relied on. The appearance of a big raven fluttering its wings on the street as if to breathe the smoke that came from it was unbelievably fantastic.

The shrine of the great eagle, imitating the underworld god Gili Gu, leisurely passes in front of the stall, cheering on the people.

At that time, the women of Gaz who worked at the same stall as me whispered "Ah".

"Asta, that raven... has a human face, right?"

"Huh? Was that so? I could only see the face of a raven."

"Yes, the human face in the wide open beak... I think it's probably not a mistake."

The women of Gaz seemed to be holding their brave faces hard.

Eventually reaching the area around the Blue Sky Cafeteria, the Shrine uses the unattended space on the opposite side to make a U-turn. Since our stall is at the northernmost end of the stall area, we will probably aim for the southernmost part of the station town from here.

Since the shrine came back, I decided to look more closely into the inside of the beak than before.

The big raven opens its beak. There was a shadow falling from the inside, and it wasn't very clear - but it certainly seemed to hide the human face and what it wanted.

A pale, inorganic face like a dead man.

Because the mackerel itself is huge, its human face is probably about one size larger than that of humans. With long, slashing eyes like the people of the east, and a beautiful face that could not be compared to either man or woman, his expression felt as cold and frozen as ice.

"... by the way, at the masquerade party once, Vermes was dressed up to mimic that underworld god Gili Gu."

Ei = Fa murmured in a low voice.

"The face of a human on a raven makes you feel like a monster, but... it's strange that you have such feelings for God."

Yeah, well, even the Sun God has a lion face.

While answering like that, I was also held in awe.

People are cheering and seeing off the shrine of the underworld god Gili Gu. Half of them were dressed like underworld dwellers. If looking at the present world as the underworld is the taste of the Soul Suppression Festival, it must not feel like it has been achieved a lot at this stage.

"Hey there! The stalls in Astor are busy too!"

And --For a magnificent man, the high-frequency voice made the solemn thoughts that were born in me dusty.

"I'll ask us to cook for you, too!" Of course, in three servings! "

"Yes, please wait a moment..."

And that's where I end up.

Tikatras, who suddenly appeared, were also dressed in very unusual costumes.

"Hey, thank you for your hard work." Tikatras are a real costume. ”

"Yes! I knew that we would celebrate the Soul Suppression Festival on a regular basis!" It was loaded in the wagon beforehand! "

Tikatras, who spoke like that, had a black right half and a white left half.

However, it is completely different from the people in the town who dressed like him. The dye that dyes your face and limbs must also be exclusive. Moreover, the black side was white, and the white side was black, each with a clownish paint. If I hadn't heard the voice first, I wouldn't know who Tikatras was, and his face was covered in thick painted makeup.

In addition, the dress is also dyed with a swirl pattern, which is inverted black and white on the left and right. Furthermore, there is a silver unified ornament hanging on top of it, and there is even a treasure crown on the head. And the hair, dyed black and white, was standing upside down like a harrison bone, a bit of a humorous demon.

Degion was a normal bunch of white clothes, but the hooded cloak was as pure as a wakeful white, and her skinny face, limbs, and hair had been dyed pure white like a skeleton. The only thing that wasn't white was brown eyes.

And it's Vichezzo.

She was dressed like a banquet costume.

A black one-piece outfit with a V-shaped cut in the chest is the same style as the old banquet costume. However, this time, the fabric was pitch-black like inhaling light, and the shadows on the ground struck like three-dimensional shadows.

And on top of that sinister outfit was a long cape woven with only black feathers. The long hair was hanging naturally, and it was terribly mysterious that it was dyed white only on Anzu-shaped eyes and fleshly lips.

"Yeah! Vichezzo is so beautiful!" Asta can't help but be seen! Once you've enjoyed the beauty of Vichezo, I'll ask you to do some cooking! ”

Ah, no, I'll be ready soon, so please wait a moment.

Of course, I was surprised by the costumes of all three people, not just Vichezzo, but Ei = Fa's gaze, which pricked my neck, did not hurt.

Besides, I'm not the only one amazed. Both the working Gaz ladies and the other customers who came in front of the stall were dressed up like Tikatras and the others.

"As expected, the nobles of the capital are authentic!" When a small child sees it, he'll really start crying that the inhabitants of the underworld are coming! "

One of the customers said so in a cheerful tone.

"But are all the ornaments real silverwork?" If that's the case, it's a lot of carelessness. "

"No, no! Degion and Vichezzo will take care of that!" Outlaws want their lives to be taken care of! It won't be a bad joke, like falling into the underworld in the middle of the Soul Suppression Festival! "

I'm sure there's a poison weapon hidden behind Vichezzo's cloak. Besides, there was also a long sword sheath under the cloak, and there was a deep slit in the dress-like outfit, so there seemed to be no mobility issues.

In the meantime, I'm going to start making yakitori, which is a daily offer of the day. Tikatras kept shouting until it was finished.

"For the rush of the gods just now, it was quite a success, wasn't it?" I'm relieved that Genos has a good craftsman! By now, the same thing will be kneading in the streets of the castle town! ”

“Really? Will Tikatras be spending the entire time in the bivouac town as planned?”

"Yes! I can't bear to let down the bridge for myself!" This kind of festival is more exciting in the town where various people gather! "

The awaited Soul Festival was quite a float of Tikatras. However, Deghion and Vichezzo were more keen than usual to intimidate the people around them.

"Once the Astors have finished their work, enjoy the festivities!" But don't forget to kill the deceased! "

As soon as the cooking was finished, Tikatras left the words behind and walked towards the Blue Sky Cafeteria.

Still, as soon as I took a breath, I finished cooking one dish after another. After the shrine passed, customers came to the stall again. No matter how much time had passed since the opening of the business, nothing had changed in the momentum of the customers.

And within that time, the spectators from the forestside also arrived one after another.

The first to come and say hello was the trio of Faye-Behm, Mora-Naham and Naham's youngest sister.

“Asta, thank you for your hard work. This seems like a very busy listening.”

Fei-Baim called out to me like that with a stern face, so I smiled back and said, "That's right."

"With this amount, it seems that 50% more food will be sold out in less than two seconds." We may be able to increase the amount of food tomorrow, so Faye-Behm, too. ”

Faye-Baim was on duty tomorrow night. Fei-Baim nodded “Yes” in a harsh manner, and Naham's youngest sister peeked at him from the side.

"With Fei-Beim on duty tomorrow, we'll be able to finish our sightseeing today!" Parents will be coming down tomorrow, so I'm sure they'll show their faces here too! ”

"I see. How are the Dei-Lavitzs doing?"

"Ravitz's parents and his partner came down in the same wagon, but they went to the stall where the inn was serving!" But I'm sure you'll be sneaking around too! "

As usual, she is an innocent and adorable girl. And because she was curious, she seemed to be completely exhilarated by the unusual appearance of the station town.

And Mora-Naham, the brother of all the puppets, was as usual a stone statue. To him, Ai-Fa called out to the stalls.

"How is the city, O Mora-Naham? I'm afraid I'll lose more moderation than I did on Easter.”

"That's right... I was surprised by this buzz." It seems that the Easter Festival was better than the number of people itself... but the state of the people in the town may be better today. "

"I see. It's a festival of the unknown, and I think it means that I'm happy." I want you to stay safe, too. "

When Mora-Naham answered "um..." in a heavy manner, her energetic sister jumped into her arms.

"If you're Brother Mora, you'll be fine!" As long as Faye-Baym is by your side, you won't be distracted! ”

"Ah, what are you talking about?" I would ask you to refrain from making minor remarks. ”

When Fei-Behm blushed squarely, Naham's youngest sister smiled adorably, “Eheheh.” It's been two months since Fei-Beim was deposited at Naham's house. It seemed that the bond was being properly deepened, and I was only happy.

Next up is a group of Souti bloodline, led by Dalí = Souti. They also used their own wagons, and it was said that they were still in transit.

"This is also a big bustle." Didn't Tikatras and the others show up? "

"No, I was making a lot of noise in the cafeteria just now." It was a pretty slippery figure. "

“I see. You're enjoying the bustle of the bunker town without sticking to the Astas....... I feel like I've been swallowed up by the noise of Tikatras."

When Dali-Sauthi said so with a bitter smile, Ai-Fa responded with a "oh".

"If you say so, you're right." That's probably why I get strangely distracted. "

"Hmm. But it's never a bad thing. I'm just amazed at the influence of Tikatras.”

So when the food was ready, Dalí-Sauthi and the others headed for the Blue Sky Cafeteria. In these cases, our compatriots in Moriwabe also pay copper coins to buy food properly.

I looked back at Ei = Fa while briefly cleansing the iron plate before I baked a new dish.

"Is Ai-Fa standing up? I didn't know the difference, because I always looked serious when I was on guard duty.”

"Hmm. I didn't feel the big difference myself. In the words of Dalí = Souti, it fell into disarray. Sticky, Tikatras is not immoral... but it reminds me of Tikatras, whether the people of the town float or not."

Ai-Fa said that while tightening her mouth so that her lips would not stop.

As usual, the residents of the underworld are falling in love with each other. After all this time, it's a frenzy I can't get used to.

However, I was able to enjoy the celebration very purely.

The distant sounds of whistles and drums, as well as the occasional compatriots visiting the forestside, make the Easter festival's situation pleasant to me. After all, the night sales made me feel more like a festival than anything else.

"Asta! This dish is over!"

It was not until a minute and a half after the opening of business that such a report was received from Rey-Matua. She was in charge of the Giba and Seafood curry.

Eh, are you finished already? Even though you've increased the amount by 50%, it was almost the same as at noon.

"Yes! It must have been because of the large number of customers in the east!" Most of our customers in the east will buy him! "

"Oh, I see. Let's prepare more curry tomorrow." After you clear the equipment, I'll say hello to the cafeteria. "

"Yes!" Leaving a cheerful reply, Rey-Matua rushed away.

The rest of the meat is cooked in the pot, which is in charge of me, Giba's balls, which is in charge of Yun-Sudra, and Marfila-Naham's meat. And about 10 minutes after Ray-Matua's report, Malfira-Naham also announced the end of the sale.

"Hey, Hoiko-roo is a dish that can only be served on a plate, so I think it was sold out earlier than Asta or Yun-Sudra. Leu, even at Luu's house, Mime's stew seems to have sold out first.”

At the same time, the ramen of the Levites was sold out. Since you can't get as much manpower as we can get, you've increased by 30% and you've been challenging the business this evening. Still, this took up a lot of time because the cooking took a little more time.

“The cafeteria should have room for manpower, so let the Levites go back to their quarters.”

"I'm always sorry. I'll pay you back in some way."

There was the same situation at the Easter Festival, so the Levites turned straight back to the [Kimusu's Tail Pavilion]. The cafeteria over there should be in full swing, so we should be looking forward to the Levites returning.

Then, when some stalls are finished, customers focus on the stalls that remain until then. However, since grilled udon and eggs cannot speed up the pace of cooking, this amount of work has not changed.

"I can't understand anything about business, but... if you have hassle-free food, you can sell a lot of food in a short amount of time, right?"

Ei = Fa whispered such a word on the wipe, so I finished the new baked noodles and answered "yes".

"But if all you can do is make and put away dishes, your offerings will look alike." I prioritize serving a variety of dishes over efficiency. "

Ai = Fa's whisper, "That's fine," sounded very satisfying.

That's why I'm baking yakitori while giving you even more vitality. I'm sweaty under my clothes because I'm always facing the iron plate. However, the temperature also dropped at night, so it was easier to spend time than during the day.

By the time the two-minute period will have elapsed, the baking process will finally be over. Almost at the same time, the balls seemed to have run out of seeds.

Before that, the sale of flavored baked goods in the Luw family was terminated, and only the mozzarella hotpot and the baked sweets of the Din family were left. It was a regular practice to prepare large quantities of soup dishes on such days, so it was difficult to stick to the end.

But it's only a matter of time before we run out of other dishes. All the customers concentrated on the stalls of nut pots and baked goods, and all the donations were sold out in no time.

All we have to do is wait for the customers of the Blue Sky Cafeteria to pull us out.

When I took hold of the sachi who had been sleeping on the roof of the stall until the very end, I took a breath and said, "Ahh! a warm voice echoed."

"The food and the sweets have sold out?" Oh, my God! You've eaten a lot! "

If you think of someone, it's Yumi. Beside it, Jo-Ran is laughing. Speaking of which, they had never been seen before.

"You arrived a lot late." What have you been up to? "

I helped Via and the other stalls because they were really big customers!

Having said that, Yumi looked back indignantly at Jo-Ran.

"That's why I asked you to procure Asta's dishes for me!" The station town is my garden, so you don't have to be so clear! "

"No, that's not how it's going to work, because Yumi's in Lan's house now."... well, even if it wasn't, I didn't mean to leave Yumi's side. "

"Why!" Even at Easter time, I didn't even wear a bodyguard! "

"This is an Easter Soul Suppressing Festival." I think we need to be even more vigilant because it feels more like a floating town than it is on Easter. ”

Then Ei = Fa joined Joe = Lang with a solemn face.

"I think that's the right decision." Since Yumi is in the position of being a guest of the orchid, we should follow the style of the forest side in this case. "

“Yes, and I wanted to be by Yumi's side, no matter how the town looks like.”

Joe = Lan said something extra, so I = Fa's help was ruined too. As a result, Yumi said with a red face, "Oh no!" I decided to make a mess. "

"But the inn stalls are still open, right?" We were going to have your food on the way back, so we could go eat together if you'd like. ”

Huh? Are Asta and the others going back to the forest?

"Yeah, I'm still putting in a lot of stuff tomorrow." The sights of the city are all you have to do tomorrow night. ”

"Ah, I see!" When it comes to Easter, it's like a holiday for two days in a row! Asta and the others are in a lot of trouble. "

"But the next day I'm off, so it doesn't matter." It's like the festive heat and something is condensed in two days, and it's fun. "

"Yeah, that might be it!"...... but how do I treat the people who died in this noise? "

That's something I agree with. The members who participated in the stall's business were only satisfied with the sense of accomplishment that they had done a great job.

What about the people who are making noise in the cafeteria and in the traffic? Everyone is enjoyable and seems to be more lifelike than ever - but how many humans are worthy of the Soul Suppression Festival? It seemed difficult to extrapolate from the outer surface.
