Isekai Ryouridou

Preparation (1) ~ Request ~

On the 11th of the black month, the next day, I and Ai Fa relaxed at Fa's house.

The stalls were closed for business, and the hunters' work was a rest period, so we were able to relieve the fatigue of the Soul Suppression Festival that had disturbed Genos for two days without anyone's eyes being caught.

Incidentally, on the night before, after returning from the station town, I decided to spend a lot of time at night. Me and Ei = Fa decided to talk about the deceased as much as we could in order to correctly practice the method of the Soul Shedding Festival.

I told him about my mother, and Eifa told him about my parents. And they also spoke of Tay-Sun, and Zatz-Sun, and Cycleus, and Siluel. Unlike Cycléus, who at the end of the day had a glimpse of the human nature of her daughter's reflair, she only had bad memories of Siluel - so it was the Soul Suppression Festival technique that made no distinction.

I have no idea how much time I have spoken, because the sun clock is useless at night. But no matter what, it was not until the last day of the Easter Festival that night was spent. To be honest, I don't remember when I fell asleep -- the next morning, I woke up on the same bedding, holding Ai = Fa's body firmly in my arms.

Recently, the hugging habit of Ai-Fa has long disappeared. However, because I told falsely about my parents who died last night, did Ai = Fa also return to her children?

Or maybe I asked for Ei = Fa's warmth. I was in the exact same position as Ai = Fa, so I shouldn't have been able to unilaterally sweeten Ai = Fa.

Anyway, we were going to wake up in the warmth of the ghosts.

Probably, it was only three moments later than usual. It appeared to me that the sun had risen to a considerable height. When they opened the door, they joyfully jumped out.

While cleaning up my morning job, I made people from the outside world feel better.

Today, Tikatras and his servants set out to Cornelia, Jagal, for Dells, a peddler selling miso - and Gamley's Seat, which includes Chil-Rim and Dia, also travels unexpectedly.

(But, Tikatras said he'd be back in a month... [Gamley's Seat] is only two months away, and it's Easter.)

That's why I was able to feel more joy in my heart for the next reunion than the loneliness of parting.

"I haven't had much time to rest this month because of Tikatras." We should keep our spirits up before they come back to Genos. "

Ei = Fa said it like that.

But--that's not what the inquisitor said.

When we finished the Soul Festival, we ended up getting involved in such a big event that we couldn't help it.



As a precursor to this, my idyllic holiday with Ei = Fa ended in half a day.

And it came to pass, a little more than a half hour after the descent, that Rud-Ruu came from the house of Ruu.

"Hey, you were tired yesterday." I'm sorry for the laziness, but can you come to Luu's house for a bit? "

"Hmm? What can I do for you?"

"From now on, this is the meeting of the three chiefs." Today, not only the patriarchs of Fou and Baym, but also Asta and Ei = Fa. "

If it's from the sheik, we'll follow.

However, at this time, when I had just finished the Soul Suppression Festival, I had no choice but to be anxious.

"What the hell are you talking about?" Could it be that... one of the cases of Chill = Rim has touched Donda = Ruu's upside down? "

"Ahh, Asta and the others were together with Dalí = Souti, holding a secret." Well, that's how you get beaten up, huh? "

"...... If Donda = Luu and the others are angry, I will assume all responsibilities as a parent"

When Ai-Fa said that with a sharp face, Rud-Lou spilled a whiter tooth.

"That's why you won't get beaten up." I also heard from Brother Ziza, but the story has settled down, right? I don't think my dad or Graff-Zaza would be angry with that kind of story. "

Chil-rim, who possessed the power of stargazing, was supposed to be banished by Sims, but Camouflage-Josh took care of it and deposited it in Gamley's Seat. The only people who had been informed of this beforehand were me, Ai Fa and Souti, who had given the last supper together. As a result, Chil-Rim returned to the Western Kingdom as a member of the [Gamley's Seat], and Dalí-Sauthi also rushed to inform Ziza-Ruu.

"In the meantime, come to Luu's house." Graf = Zaza should be arriving soon, too. "

Hmmm? Have you been sending messengers to the northern village since morning?

"No. I was told by Georg = Zaza yesterday." Meet me at Luu's house by the second minute. After all, most houses will be absent from their hunters' work today. "

Fa and his nearby clan were at rest, but other clans were also adjusting their rest schedules to coincide with the Soul Suppression Festival.

Anyway, if it was a meeting that had been decided from the day before, it was probably that there was an agenda separate from the one of Chill-Rim.

In the meantime, Ei-Fa and I will prepare for our departure.

Then Ei = Fa whistled at the four dogs, and Rudo = Lou's eyes shone with interest.

Speaking of which, have the hounds of Fa's house been hooked up to you?

“No, I don't see any change at all, so I don't think we're in the middle of an estrus yet.”

I see. At the Luu family, it looks like they're already hooked up.

Now it was Ei = Fa's turn to keep his eyes open.

"There must have been one female for multiple males in the Luu family." How did you decide on a hound to be your mate? "

"I don't know about that, but I'm sure I've been tied up." Because it looks exactly like the pedestrian told me. "

Ei = Fa put the four dogs on the luggage bed as he became more serious.

I call Sachi, who was taking a nap on the roof, and we both go up to the loading platform. Brave, Duruma, Jilbe, Ram - the four dogs greeted me and Sachi with the usual innocence.

"Well, I'm going to call out to Fow and Baem's house." Ei = Fa, please go first. "

After saying goodbye to Rudo-Ru, which straddled Totos, Giluru's wagon decided to aim for Ruu's settlement.

Ai = Fa, who manipulated the reins on the gazebo, also showed signs of being stretched out from behind. However, it seemed that Ei-Fa was more concerned with the end of the dogs than with the sudden summoning of Donda-Ru.

"Hey. Even if it was the black moon, you said that the fever would not come all the time." Depending on the dog, it might be carried over to the next month... don't you have to be so nervous? "

"Hmm, I know." But when I think about whether one of the Braves will ever be tied to the lamb... I can't help but feel calm down. "

And it shall be because of the depth of the affection of Ai-Fa. Ai-Fa has the temperament of pouring a lot of love into his family, without distinction between humans and beasts.

Eventually, when I arrived at Luwu's village, there was a relaxed air.

House Luu was also on a rest day yesterday, so today it was just about checking the trap set up, but it seems that he has already finished his work. In the square, there were a lot of men working on firewood and playing with children.

And in the corner of the square, the toddlers are deflected with hounds.

Among them, only two dogs were off the wheel. Because of the difference in physique, it can be known that one of them is a female. I'm sure that's two of them.

The peddlers who sold hounds and bitch dogs said that bitch dogs who had a period of estrhythmia had a male dog as their companion. It is said that if the two names are tied together, they will not be able to attract other male dogs until the end of the estrous period.

(So, it was said that the estrus period is about 10 days or half a month. Jilbe is friendly with rum, so I'll miss her if I don't get close to half a month)

As far as I'm concerned, that's all I have.

Ai = Fa turned a serious look at the two dogs and then made his way to Luu's main house.

"Oh, asta to Ai-Fa." Welcome to Luu's house. It was a long time ago, wasn't it? "

My mother, who came out of the main house, greeted us with a gentle smile, as usual.

"Reina and the others are gathering an empty crowd for a study group." If you want, why don't you take a peek? "

Yeah, but it looks like the others have arrived.

Ai = Fa looked back, and another wagon appeared in the square.

After that, two Totos with humans on their backs followed. One of them was Rudo-Ruu, the other was Graf-Zaza and the boys. From the first wagon appeared the patriarchs of Bardou-Fou and Baym, and each one of them.

"Wow. Dalí-Saudi is already here, so we're all here now." My job is over. "

Rudo-Ru waved at us and walked away.

Graph = Zaza looks down at me and Ei = Fa with black eyes from the shadow of Giba's fur.

"It's a shame, Ei = Fa, Asta." I have something to tell you... but first, should I say hello to Donda-Ruu? "

Leaving such words behind, Graf-Zaza steps into the main house. Seeing it off, Bardou-Fou frowned wildly.

"Graph = Zaza seems to have a place that includes Ai = Fa." Did something go wrong? "

“Hmm, that's probably what we're going to talk about here.”

Ei = Fa was solemn and responsive.

Me and Ei-Fa had only told Lyerfam-Sudra and Yun-Sudra about Chill-Rim, but it didn't seem to be in the ears of Burdoo-Fow yet. The route from Dalí-Sauthi to Georg-Zaza has already been passed on to him. For me, it was quite a spine.

Anyway, we'll get in the way of the main house.

Donda-Lou and Gazlan-Rutim, as well as the patriarchs of Dalí-Sauthi and Vera, were waiting for them in the square, a familiar face of the council of chiefs. However, it was still too early for the promise, and the Ziza-Ruu family was there. It was Saty Ray-Roux, who held the baby Rudy-Roux, and Kota-Roux, who was playing with him. When Kota-Lou noticed my figure, she came closer and closer with her eyes shining.

"Asta, welcome to Luu."

"I'm sorry to bother you." Kota = Luu seems to be doing well, too.

When I gave him a smile, Kota-Lou nodded, "Yes" with a happy face.

"Then you can start the meeting." Kota, let's go back to bed. Or do you want to play outside? "

When Saty Ray-Lou spoke out in that way, Kota-Lou took it for granted.

”Kota, I want to talk to Asta, but... does Asta do it too?”

"Yes, yes. Both of Fa's parents have an important conversation with Donda."

Kota = Luu got so nervous that I bent over and laughed at her.

"If we have time later, let's have a chat." Until then, can you wait for me? "

Kota-Lou revived her happy face and nodded again, "Yeah."

Then Kota-Lou and the others return to their bedrooms, where only the participating members of the meeting are left. Among them were Ziza-Lou and Mom Meer Ray.

"Parents, if you want, why don't you call Reina and Lara?" Isn't that faster? "

When Mother Meir Ray made such a move, Donda-Ruu often thought of it and then nodded heavily, "That's right."

"Well then, I'll call for you." Please make yourself at home. "

Mother Meer Ray left the main house with a gentle smile.

Then, Baim's patriarch shouted with a muffled face.

"It's Chief Donda-Lou. What do you want with me today? By the way, I didn't expect to be summoned the day after the Soul Suppression Festival."

"It's because of circumstances, so I want you to accept it." I'll explain it to you, as long as you wait for my family to arrive... first, I'll ask Dali-Sauthi to tell me about it. "

When Donda-Lou's eyes were sharpened, Dari-Sauthi nodded calmly.

"This is a perfect opportunity, so let me tell you something." I want this story to be passed on to all the clans immediately. "

Then Dali-Sauthi began to talk about the case of Chil-Rim.

As soon as they heard that, the people of Baim and Fow grew more and more stunned.

"The daughter of Chil-Rim, who made a lot of noise around the forest in that tea moon, was delivered to [Gamley's Seat] instead of Sims?" What kind of story is that? Is he in a position to be judged to live in the Western Kingdom? "

"Hmm. That is the judgment of Lord Malstein of Genos." It would have been impossible to protect a daughter in Genos, a freelancer, so she would have had to be pushed away by an exotic Sim. The current King of Selva hates the likes of magic, so if he keeps such a daughter in the western kingdom, she could be executed. ”

Dali-Sauthi never distracted herself, but repeated his words like that.

"However, in the land of Sims who do not understand the language, it will be difficult for her daughter to have peace of mind. If the daughter despairs of this world, she may even give herself to the evil god sect. That's how Camus-Josh came up with the idea of putting his daughter in [Gamley's Seat].”

”That guy again... that guy Camua-Josh, he makes a lot of trouble every time.”

Bardou-Fou shouted, “But” as Baem's patriarch looked angry.

"During the disturbance around the Sun family, he was committed to aiming for the right path to become him, and eventually he was able to overlap with the path we had to take. Isn't that the only way to find out?"

"But it was a disobedience to the orders of the Lord of Genos?" I wonder if the Lord of Genos is our sovereign? "

"So, should we have banished Chil-Rim's daughter to Sims?" Or should I have been executed as a great sinner, dyed in magic?...... I don't agree with either of them at all. "

Having said that, Bardou-Fou turned his gaze toward Dalí-Sauti.

"Is it because the Patriarch Dali-Sauthi has also judged that he has overlooked the deeds of Camua-Josh?" And they even talked to us until our daughter, Chill-Rim, came back to Genos. "

"Hmm. I'm sorry to hear that you had such a secret with your brothers and sisters in the forest."

"... and Eifa and Asta were also listening to that story in the same place."

"Hmm. It was possible that [Gamley's Seat] refused to allow Chill-Rim to exist, so I decided that I shouldn't say anything until I could see him safely." If Bardou-Fou and the others are upset, I want to apologize too. "

"I don't want you to apologize for anything." I wonder if Eifa or Dalí-Sauthi were the ones who bore the pain of having a big secret. "

Bardou-Fou's expression softened slightly, but he quickly tightened it and turned towards Ghazlan-Rutim.

"However, it doesn't change that we have a secret in our monarchy, Malstein." Is this a permissible act? "

“I know I'm allowed to. Isn't this rather an act of salvation for Malstein's heart?”

Baem's patriarch frowned at Gazlan-Rutim's words.

"What does it mean to save Mulstein's heart? Isn't it a false salvation?"

“If we were you, we would feel that way. That's why I think this is the only salvation that Camua-Josh can provide.”

With his usual gentle face, Ghazlan-Rutim said so.

“It's been over two years since I met Mulstein, and I think I've come to understand him a lot. First of all, Malstein ordered that Chil-Rim be banished to Sims... because he didn't want her to be executed as a felony. She was not given the power of star-viewing by her own will, but she is considered an unforgivable felon for a king who hates sorcery. It seems that Malstein, who did not wish to execute Chil-Rim for that reason, tried to save her life by deporting her to Sim.”

"But did Camua-Josh disobey that command?"

“Yes, Camua-Josh has come up with the most desirable solution for Chil-Rim. But it is by no means an act that is recognized by the king. If Mulstein had been told the truth by Camus-Josh, he would have had no choice but to say no as Lord of Genos. Genos was in a position where he was suspected of treason, so it was unacceptable for him to dye his hands in disobedience.”

And Gazran-Rutim separated his words there, and looked round about in order.

"Therefore, Camua-Josh did not even tell Malstein the truth, but delivered Chil-Rim to" Gamley's Seat "on his own responsibility." Isn't it true that the end of Chil-Rim and Malstein's heart were saved by falsehood? It seems to me that it is an impossible thing for us to sin on falsehood. ”

"... and we're going to have a big secret to our lord."

“Yes, Camua-Josh wore mud all over his body, but it's like we were exposed to the splash. I want to honor the dedication of Camus-Josh and carry with me for the rest of my life the pain of having a secret to the Lord.”

Baim's patriarch sighed deeply.

"I just wanted to make sure... Was Ghazlan-Rutim able to reveal this secret in advance?"

"No, I was told earlier by Ziza-Lou." Ziza-Lou was told by Dalí-Sauthi last night. ”

"Is that how you immediately set your own course?" Sometimes people who are too clever can even feel horror. "

"In any case, there are only two paths left for us." Either you keep this secret, or you reveal it all to Malstein. ”

Donda-Ruu declared so in a heavy voice.

"If you reveal everything to Malstein, Camua-Josh and Dia, who have disobeyed orders, and the daughter of Gamley and Chil-Rim will be pursued as a great sinner." That's the only way Mulstein can behave like that. ”

“Yes, in normal times, there are diplomats in the current Genos. In the first place, Camua-Josh did not tell Malstein the truth, believing that it would be difficult to blind the diplomats of Vermes and Aug. The individual of Vermes, like Camus-Josh, should be the first to think of the resting place of Chil-Rim, but he is also unacceptable from a diplomat's point of view, and must watch out for Augg's eyes.”

Gazran-Rutim added in a quiet voice.

“But Camua-Josh told the truth to Dari-sauthi and Asta. I'm sure the people around the forest would have chosen the right path.... and one more thing. We must never forget the fact that we are protecting our fellow citizens in the same way.”

"Hmm? What are you talking about now?" How do you think we're protected from what? "

"It's about a woman named Klua-Sun, the youngest sister of Sung's main house. Like Chil-Rim, she received the power of Hoshimi independently of her own will, but now she is passing through the eastern people of Alyshna to control that power. But that fact has not been reported to the capital by Malstein and Fermes.”

The patriarchs of Bardou-Fou and Baym were pushed aside by voidness.

"I see... for a king who doesn't like sorcery, that Klua-Sun is likely to be considered a felon like the daughter of Chil-Rim."

"Yes, but Mulstein and Fermes are turning a blind eye to that one. If the King had ordered Klua-Sun to be executed or banished, it would have made it harder for the people around the forest to live healthy lives as a Genos people.”

Gazran-Rutim's gaze remained calm, but there was strength that could not be beaten by the three chiefs.

“We are also saved by Malstein and Hermes keeping secrets. Isn't it too arrogant of us to accuse Camus-Josh and the others of secrets? The people around the forest are searching for a way to live right as a people of the kingdom... I think we should learn from the work of Camua-Josh, Malstein, and Hermes.”

"... you are only a steward, not a roadmaker, Ghazlan = Rutim."

For the first time, Graf-Zaza shouted heavily.

"There has never been anything like false salvation around the forest, as Baem's patriarch said. Many people wonder if this is really the right path. But... we have set ourselves the goal of forming a proper bond with humans from the outside world. The truth of the actions of Camua-Josh and the others cannot be judged in the long run."

"What is a long sight?", retorted Bardou-Fou.

Graph = Zaza repeated her words as she glistened her black eyes.

"In the first place, many of us have never even met Chill-Rim's daughter." Until I join Camuas-Josh's falsehoods, I'll have to determine if it's worth saving for my daughter... first of all. "

"They won't come back to Genos until Easter, will they?" Are you going to postpone the conclusion for more than two months? "

When Baim's patriarch said so, Graf-Zaza said, "Dissatisfied?" He turned back to you.

"Our actions will determine the fate of many people." Even after the execution of Chil-Rim's daughters and Camuas-Josh and the others, the souls returned to heaven will not return. "

Baim's patriarch was not overwhelmed by Graf-Zaza's temperament, and he gave a harsh expression, "That's right."

“So how should we take care of it? We can't let these children hear such big secrets without knowing why. In the future, there will be more opportunities for young children to be deposited in the shrine in the station town."

"Hmm. It must be carefully evaluated." Whether to put it in the chest of one of the parents, confide it only to people who know the daughters of Dia and Chil-Rim, or confide it to all those who have reached a reasonable age... I think we should make arrangements with them first before talking to their respective clans. "

While listening to the serious exchanges between Graph = Zaza, I couldn't help but think of the cold sweat - and still remember it in my heart.

(If you meet Chill = Rim, you'll understand the Graph = Zaza. There is no way that someone who thinks that Chill-Rim should be executed is in the woods like that.)

At that time, the front door was opened.

Meer Ray's mother brought Reina-Lou and Lara-Lou.

"Oh, well, that's a lot of enthusiasm." Couldn't you wait for Reina and the others? "

"Your story is about to begin." You should listen to me, too. "

Reina-Lou and the others bowed to the side by side and then broke their knees in the corner of the hall.

Donda = Luu just rearranged the partition and looked around at us.

"Now, let's get down to business as we talk about the other thing later." Before that... do you remember the name of Wellheid? "

Since Donda = Luu's eyes were finally stopped by me, I replied, "Of course."

"It's Wellheid of the Marquis of Banarm, isn't it? He still visits the castle town from time to time as the person in charge of the trade with Genos... but I haven't seen him lately.”

"Hmm. Once upon a time, Wellhead's father was trying to do business with Genos... but it was obstructed by the intentions of Cycléus and Siluel." The Sun family, inspired by Cycléus and the others, killed Wellhead's father with their own hands. Wellheid was invited to expose the sins of Cycléus and the others, so the approximate humans should be face to face. "

At the meeting, the three clan chiefs, the three stewards, and me and Ei = Fa were also invited. Also, Reina-Lou and Lara-Lou should have met Wellheid when they came to the castle as their turn, so the only people who didn't know his face at this time were Mom and Mom and the boys.

"In the morning, the House of Ruu was to receive an emissary from Wellheid as a guest. And I was asked to do a job.”

Hmm. It's a long story when the Soul Suppression Festival ends.

Bardou-Fou clutched his mouth and Donda-Lou snorted, "Hmm."

"There's a situation over there." So, the request... was to have the cuisine of the wedding banquet prepared by the kamado on the edge of the forest. "

"I see. So Asta and the ladies of Lu were invited here." But a man from the land of Banham is going to have a wedding in Genos? "

Donda = Luu replied "No" with a face that seemed to be holding back from becoming the top of the Buddha.

"Wellheid is giving a wedding in her hometown of Banam. I'm asking you to prepare meals for the feast."

"Hmm? Well then, no way..."

"Banam is two days away from Genos by wagon. That's why I want to invite you to the forestside Kamado."

The people on the spot were stunned by the words of Donda-Lou.

Of course I'm one of them.

We were to be told the full spectrum of epic events that could not be beaten at Soul Festival.
