Isekai Ryouridou
Mission of the King's Capital in the South ⑥ - Precious People
"Oh, I 'm-fa to Asta. Have you finished your role in explaining the dish yet?
It was Raina-Lou who was acting with Ziza-Lou who spoke to me that way. He was not seated at the round table and seemed to exchange words with the faces of the Earl Saturas family.
"Yeah. When Dari-Sautti and Limi-Luu got here, we got rid of them. Maybe they want to talk to as many people as possible."
"Really? We were just about to go say hello after a while."
Ziza-Lou nodded at Raina-Lou's words and turned his gaze all the way out instead of ours.
"By the way, you... have become a brave man in a martial arts club, Devious"
"Oh, Lord Giza-Lou! Seems magnificent, above all!
Devious was following us. Ruidros had raised his glass with the same graceful hesitation.
"Devias was kind enough to meet the forest folks, too. That's what we should call friends who fought for victory at the martial arts club."
"Yeah, it's not good enough yet."
Ever since we exchanged those greetings, Ruidros has compared me to Ey-Fa.
"I was now eager to talk about Lord Giza-Lou and others. I hear you have something to think about the southern mission."
"Hmm. They feel like they're covering up the truth somewhere."
It is uncommon for Ruidros and Ai-Fa to exchange more words than greeting each other.
"Hmm," Luidros nodded, stroking his beard beautifully shaped.
"There are many occasions when a person in an aristocratic capacity has to weigh his or her position more than his or her emotions as an individual. Instead, I guess humans who don't cover up their emotions are rarer."
"Hmmm... that's how you were once supposed to be questioned by Giza-Lou"
"Oh, it's something that will dig up bitter memories!... but then I thought about acting right as the head of the Count Saturas family. There may be teething sides to the people by the woods to be frank, but that's what nobility is all about."
Ruidros did not look offended and dampened his mouth with a glass of fruit liquor.
"And also, it's not what I decided was lurking evil in the hidden inside. Even if the guests of the south behaved frankly, it was premature to say that it was evil with it."
That, as a nobleman, might have been a truly neutral opinion.
Ziza-Lou stays silent for a while so that he can bite the word off, then nods "um".
"Let us keep your words, which are the same nobility, firmly in our hearts. … Now excuse me"
"What, you're already gone?" It was Leeheim his son who said, Its eyes seem unfortunate, watching Rayna-Lew.
"I haven't delivered my thanks yet. Just once again, will you give me some time?
"Thank you, I've had enough. Your words have given me great pride and joy"
Raina-Lou was answering that way with an uncontrolled smile.
"And it is I who would like to convey my thanks to you. Thank you for entrusting me with such a task, Leeheim."
"Oh. I'll ask you again if I can spare you enough time not to be bothered by another nobleman."
Leeheim was laughing as if to haunt him.
This is probably the first time this bigoted young man has ever given you such a look. It was how he and Raina-Lou were able to bond back correctly over the vicious edges of the past.
Thus Giza-Lou and Raina-Lou return to the center of the hall. Probably went looking for members of the mission scattered all over the place. Today we had to deepen our bonds with the noble people and at the same time determine the true nature of the southern mission.
We also greet the faces of the Earl of Saturas and turn our feet in a different direction from the Giza-Lou's. As far as I'm concerned, I wanted to exchange words with Refraia early - before I could, I was supposed to be stopped shouting around.
"Oh, isn't it Asta to Ai-Fa! These people want to exchange words with you!
It is the parent and son combination of Dan-Rutim and Gazran-Rutim, the last platoon of the people by the woods. It was the members of the mission that surrounded the same round table, so we couldn't get it straight either.
"Well, this one was in the puppet play, are you from Fa's house? It's an honor to meet you!
"Come on, go ahead. If you don't mind, let us say hello, too."
One was a clerk who was meeting with Gazran-Rutim and others during the day, and the other was a martial officer dressed in the same way as Forta. Both are magnificent men with cheerful grins on their tough faces. It was a friendlier welcome than I imagined.
"I had my stomach in the distance, but it's really beautiful - oh, no, no, you shouldn't have complimented me that way! Even though I had just been advised by Lord Gazran-Rutim, I was upset and spilled my mood!
"You'll see!" Devious sat first, accordingly. Ai-Fa is laying his hands on the round table and swallowing his sighs diligently.
"... why would even you want to sit in the same place?
"Fair enough, isn't it? I think this is your first meeting with Mitsuhito Moribe, so I'd like you to introduce me."
Gazran-Rutim and I are also once face-to-face in the castle town. Hence, it was Dan-Rutim who would meet for the first time.
Dan-Rutim looks back at his affection, glimmering with curiosity.
"Gazlan, who is this guy? Doesn't it seem a lot more hands-on to a town person!
"This is the militia, Devious. You heard the name of the martial arts club, didn't you?
"Oh, Devious! You beat Dim-Rutim, that guy! Then it's only natural that you're taking so much power for granted!
"Oh, you know Lord Dim-Rutim?
"You know nothing, he's our blood family!
That meant that Dan-Rutim and Devious were to have a really noisy first-person greeting.
In addition, both names of the mission will talk about the Martial Arts Club of Genos. Mitsuhito, the martial officer, was listening to the word with his eyes shining like a child.
(That's Dan-Rutim and Gazran-Rutim. It's like an old friend already.)
And when I was impressed, the food was delivered by the maidens. "Mime-style Miso Stewed" and "Giva Shabu-shabu Warm Vegetable Salad" with Hoboi dressing.
"These people have been working as missions for a long time."
Gazran-Rutim explained it to me that way, aiming for the occasion when the seat would probably be quiet by the arrival of the dish.
"The head of the mission, Roblos, and the soldier, Forta, are all shallow."
"Yes, Lord Roblos is also a celebrity in the memory of His Majesty the King. Even this time, I put together a difficult project for you!
The clerk said so with a smile.
"Are the people of the woods in an unhated mood for the people of the North? If we leave it to Lord Roblos, we have nothing to show you! Lord Roblos spared no time while he slept so that the people of the North could live in peace as the people of the South!
"Really?... So all of a sudden they brought up a Chiffon-Cher case, and I guess I was just confused."
When I cut it out like that, the clerk jammed the word "Ngu".
But soon he regains his smile and lifts the poured glass of Jagal sparkling liquor.
"No, if you put it in Lord Roblos' arms, there's nothing to say! Whether or not that Chiffon-Cher can make a happy ending… depends on our minds."
"Depends on your mind," Ey-Fa repeated low.
"But Chiffon-Cher was offered to remain a people of the North if he wanted to work in Genos. Is that going to end happily?
The clerk rounded his eyes properly.
But that face still grins quickly.
"As a matter of fact, I don't want jewelry either. But also, if Lord Roblos says it's important, you don't feel doubtful about it. Lord Roblos is a strict man, but he is not one to abandon the lost."
Ai-Fa remained silent and stared into the other person's eyes.
Then the clerk starts stroking his face in a lit manner.
"How disturbing for you to be stared at with such a serious eye. If my hometown companion finds out, they'll turn the table upside down."
"Oh! Lord Ai-Fa, can't you give me that sharp glance, too?
Ai-Fa has silenced Devias and leaned to my ear.
"This person doesn't seem to be hiding the truth at all. Liquor, cooking and Dan-Rutim and others would have unraveled this man's heart."
So that means Robros has tremendous trust from this clerk.
Of course I don't suspect Roblos has malice either. However, we cannot determine with what thoughts Robros, who feels to be the norm of the people of the kingdom, is watching the trend of Chiffon-Cher and Lifreia.
"Ai-Fa, it's time for me to head over to Refraia's, what do you think?
When I whispered back like that, Ai-Fa nodded "uhm".
"However, we cannot leave behind the dishes served, and we should exchange words with these people more often"
So we were supposed to interact at that round table until we ran out of dishes.
Well, both names of the mission are cheerful, not to mention Dan-Rutim and Devious. It was supposed to be this one of the noisiest pictures of this hall, like a castle town dinner party and surrounded by a relaxing atmosphere.
"I see! In Jagal, are yellow or golden? So that's how everyone keeps their yellow gems hanging!
"In Selva, the red of the Fire God is considered a holy color. He is baptized by Western gods with the people of the woods, so let's forget about that."
"Still, it's a strange clan to be a forest folk. I'm surprised that the puppet's play is a fact in itself."
"The scene where Lord Dan-Rutim rescues Lord Asta in a place called Sung's settlement, etc. has boosted my chest. And I didn't know Lord Ai-Fa was such a beautiful woman... oh no! My mouth is slipping again!
"Me and the others are sliding their mouths every time they look at each other! Let this also be due to the sinfulness of Lord Ai-Fa!
…………
"Even in Jagal, is nobility defined by what is called a title?
"Yes, Lord Roblos and others are the blood of the Duke's family. In format, you're no better than the diplomat, Lord Fermes."
"But those nobles of Gerd, they are the first sons of the lord. When it comes to clan lords in Sims, it's supposed to be second only to kings… No, it's what I've seen as swordswallowing people."
The topic spread everywhere and it was so difficult to grasp everything.
Either way, it looks like the face of the mission is sincerely enjoying this dinner party. I guess these times are irreplaceable for them, who will have completed a long journey that lasts a month and will travel again in a few days. They must also be putting it in full swing, going out to different lands as a mission. Surrounded by delicious liquor and food, and cheerful and delightful foreigners, they seemed wholeheartedly happy.
So after all - Roblos and Forta are the only ones with a difficult face in a place like this.
We were wondering if it was the truth that had to be explored.
"Ai-Fa, it's time -"
"Uhm.... we, it's time to excuse us. If you have time again, I'd like you to exchange words."
"What, you're already gone? Speaking of which, we've been settling down a lot in the same place!
That said, Dan-Rutim laughed at the clerk.
"I have already exchanged words with the other four in my capacity as martial officer. If I may, may I also say hello to Roblos and the Forta?
"I understand. Well, let's get you together."
That's how the Dan-Lutims, too, were to take their seats.
Gazran-Rutim nods at us with a calm face. I guess I also identified Gazran-Rutim as a good fit. As long as it was comforting.
And here, Ai-Fa screws Devious.
"It's Devious. This one has a situation. Often I would ask you not to accompany me."
"Hmm. See you soon, will you let me talk? I haven't talked to you two enough yet!
"... if you have more time, you don't have to think"
"Well, let's wait for that time"
Devious spilled more white teeth before going after Dan-Rutim and the others.
At last we are free, the search for Refraia. Even if there are less than forty people attending the dinner party, the hall is so crowded that it can't beat the usual feast because of the large number of lower-name and samurai going.
In the meantime, Ai-Fa, with the eye of a hunter, discovered the Refraiers. It is the round table in the hall, closest to the entrance and exit. As I followed Ai-Fa and proceeded with my walk, I could see that it was the face of the Count Turan and Count Dalaim houses sitting there.
"Oh, Lord Asta, Lord Ai-Fa. I'm glad to finally meet you."
First of all, Polearth, he calls me with a smile. Next to it, Merrim, as loving as a girl, was smiling again today.
But on the spot, it feels like the air is tucked away without saying goodbye. Refraia and the others were face-to-face and making tea, but Tolsto was quiet as a scolded pug dog.
"Asta, they were all great food. Especially with Gerd's ingredients. I wonder if Sir Roblos can complain about this."
"That, thank you.... Uh, may I interrupt us, too?
"Of course," Refraia smiled.
But his eyes shine as brightly as they did when he parted during the day. And Chiffon-Cher, who was also allowed to go out in public today, was smiling quietly instead of Refraia.
"The Astas surrounded the table with Sir Roblos until just now, didn't they? How are you feeling over there?
"Yeah... I felt like I was just a little more relaxed than I was during the day"
"Yes, I'm excited to talk to you."
Tolsto then embarked on a "Princess Lifreia" with a grueling eye.
"Again, the... no matter what, you're not going to change your mind...?
"Yeah, I'm sorry, but I can't give up on all this."
Refraia smiled at Tolsto while retaining the sharpness of her eyes.
"You're going to have a lot of trouble. I'm really sorry."
"Ha... for I am the guardian of Princess Lifreia..."
Then his mouth snapped as Merrim tilted his little neck adorably.
"My guardian, Lord Tolsto, is in a position to show the young Princess Lifreia the right way, isn't he? So has Lord Tolsto also admitted that Princess Lifreia is not mistaken in her thoughts?
"That's, well... I was watching you up close too to see how much Princess Lefreia was eyeing this Chiffon-Cher..."
"I really appreciate it," Refraia said, laying her own hands on Torsto's supple hands.
"A story like this can only cost Count Turan's family. Forgive me only this time, for I will work as a powder."
"Li, what the hell is Refraia trying to do?
When I said that, Lifreia gave me a really powerful grin.
"That's what I told you before. I will no longer falsify my heart. Convince the people of the mission so that Chiffon-Cher can live in Genos as a people of the South."
"That path, did it stand?" And Ai-Fa also said the words sharply.
"Right," Refraia says, raising her chestnut hair.
"Nothing. That wasn't a difficult story. Just take the proper steps and invite Chiffon-Cher to Genos. If those people weigh heavily on the laws of the kingdom, you can't refuse them."
"Right," Polearth hammered, too.
"From what I've heard, I don't think there's a flaw anywhere. I don't think Lord Genos or Lord Melfried will ever disagree."
"Well," Ai-Fa breathed.
"That would be a difficult story. … but then why has this been the case so far?
"Well... that must have been sweet for us. It was sweet and I couldn't see the world. I really don't like it when people don't get there."
Then Chiffon-Cher came in looking a lot naughty.
"But Dear Refraia... Are you sure this is OK...? I'm terribly distracted..."
"Then you should live with your brothers in Jagal. I can't believe you're trying to complain about that... but I'm sure it's only about me now."
That said, Refraia grabbed Chiffon-Cher's fingertips.
"But if you want to, say so. You don't have to listen to my complaints. You just have to do whatever you want, Chiffon-Cher."
Chiffon-Cher smiled with a face that still seemed to spill tears, wrapping Lifreia's little hand around her with both hands.
"I... would like to be with Master Lifreia..."
Then shut up and follow me.
Lifreia narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked up at Chiffon-Cher's face.
Faster than Chiffon-Cher, tears are glowing in his eyes.
"Thou hast given me such impotence for my sake. So now it's my turn. … now we can finally grasp the end we want."
"Yes... we leave everything to Master Refraia..."
That's when one of the samurai approached us.
"Dear Asta, The Marquis of Genos is calling you over there. I have something to tell you about my business with Gerd."
"Oh, it looks like we're clearing up your problem."
Refraia softly plucked her eyes before looking back at Torsto.
"Hey, Tolst. May I tell Sir Roblos what just happened?
"Yeah? We're at a dinner party now, aren't we?
"But I want Asta and the others to see what's going on. Besides, I wonder if Sir Roblos would be more comfortable talking in these places."
That's how we ended up heading for Roblos as a team.
The Polearths have declined, so it will be me and Ai-Fa, Lifreia and Chiffon-Cher, and Torsto's five. Tolst was walking forward with a chick, as if it hurt even in his stomach.
"Sorry about all this, it's Asta.... Oh, now Princess Lifreia and the others are with you."
The deepest round table was just Dari-Sauti and Limi-Luu being replaced by Rutim's parents and children, and the rest had the same facial rash as earlier. Malstein, Fermes, Roblos, Forta, Alvach, Nanaquem - and besides, Devious. When we came in, Gazran-Rutim and Dan-Rutim stood up and vacated their seats.
"Go ahead, give Asta an eye-fa. We'll keep an eye on you here."
"Thank you," Dan-Rutim stood at the tip of his nose as we tried to move forward.
And he bends his thick body like a liquor barrel and plugs a big face between me and I-Fa. On his face, he had a truly flamboyant grin.
"It's Ai-Fa to Asta. These guys are fine."
That's all I'm saying, Dan-Rutim just pulls in.
I had no idea what the hell was "okay" - and I was able to sit there with a lot of heart.
"Thank you for your hard work. … just now we had a taste of a dish where Gerd's ingredients were plentiful"
When we got to our seats, Robros proclaimed it that way with a heavy voice.
There are still some plates left on the table. Perhaps there was a dish served there with Gerd ingredients.
"Thank you. I don't know if there were any spicy dishes...... did you like them?
"Cooking with vanilla is not eaten only in sims. It also has Kerr's roots, Myrmu, and spiciness that cannot be beaten by vanilla. Just because it's hard, there's no reason to disparage that dish."
So it was hard to tell from that harsh voice whether or not you were satisfied with my dish.
By the way, what I prepared was a juicy dish with plenty of marooned bean plate soy sauce. Referring to the tiger pan in my memory, it was a contribution that I developed with that in mind that I could not finish a delicious soup with marooned chits that resembled bean plate soy sauce rather than cochujan.
The stock is Kimmus bone gala, and I use tau oil, miso, sugar, kelp root, myrmu, hoboi oil, and fish soy for seasoning. The ingredients, in addition to Onda for the Chinese cabbage and Moyashi, used Yural Pa for the spring onions, Fana for the pine nuts and Dru for the turnips, as well as ingredients that I could buy from Gerd here. Giva meat is thinly sliced rose meat.
Prepared at the Lou family after all was' Spicy Mallory Pilaf ', made from granular chaskas. It's also difficult to get a freshly cooked chaska at dinner parties in this format, so an easy-to-preserve pilaf was chosen.
The ingredients were an easy combination of Malor when it came to Ama shrimp and Aria, Nennon and Ma Pra, but instead they are made of cocoa and sage when it comes to pepper. Among the ingredients delivered from Gerd, vegetables and seasonings were the result of my arrangement that Chaska and vanilla would be received by Rayna-Lew.
And then Tool-Din prepares Dafuku cakes filled with watches and blueberries for Natsumikan. This is also the dough Chaska, and I was entrusted with it being a great way to convey the excellence of Gerd's ingredients.
"Every dish had a really unusual finish... but you were talking about not only Gerd but also a lot of Jagal ingredients being used for that juicy dish, etc.?
Robros asked me that, so I tried to explain.
but that gets whispered along the way.
"Your friend Gerd told me a lot about what ingredients are used. I checked with Raina-Lou and he said there was not a single detachment."
Apparently, Raina-Lou and Giza -Lou were also visiting the scene before Rutim's father and son came.
Robros said, wrinkling deeper between his eyebrows than any more.
"That dish was truly a wonderful feat. It is also the first flavour that both Gerd and Jagal ingredients can complete. I just admire the extraordinary power of them....... And in Raina-Lou's cuisine and Tour-Din's confectionery, there existed novelties like never imagined before. They also had the power of quality ingredients and cooks."
"It's an honor. So..."
"I'm going to allow Gerd to buy out the grace of the South"
Try to cut off my words, that's what Robros said.
"With what thoughts this Lord Alvach is asking for the grace of the South, he was to be heard so long that he could not forbid to sigh. And if it is possible to make dishes that are so delicious, it would certainly be such an obsession to arise. If you think about it like that, you could say that Lord Alvach was so obsessed because they had such brilliant arms."
"Yes. I'm afraid so."
In the absence of me, Alvach seems to have wielded a long and wide tongue of his specialty. Fermes, supposedly responsible for that one stick, was tilting his drink with a poor smile.
"… but selling southern grace to Gerd is conditional"
and Roblos' glance was turned to Malstein, the deflector.
Malstein said with a calm look, "Conditions? questioning."
"Mm-hmm. This is only a deal between Genos and Gerd, so we're not in a position to come up with terms. But as we have also spoken during the day, all territories are in a position to follow the will of the King's capital. If His Majesty the King of the King's Capital turns the proclamation, it will also be possible to prohibit the practice of selling ingredients to Genos"
"That's a circumstance. Dealing with Jagal is the foundation of abundance for Genos."
"That would be the same for each territory of Jagal. Of course, we're not going to let your territory decline by sticking to unreasonable demands. We just want you to show that the western territory of Genos has the same faith in both Jagal and Sim."
That's how Robros said it, sparkling his blue-purple eyes.
"All we want is one thing - to have Gerd's grace handed over to us too"
"Ho ho," Malstein smiled.
"In other words, Genos said not to act as an intermediary to buy up Gerd's ingredients in the southern capital of Kings... is that what you're saying?
"Mm-hmm. Nor is the King's Capital of the South in a position to put out many soldiers in the war with Sims. If Gerd is allowed to buy up Jagal's grace, it should also be allowed for us to buy up Gerd's grace"
"Hmm..."
"And in the Wang capital, there exists something called ingredients that can be delivered from different regions. Some of them will still be unknown ingredients to the people of Genos."
"Then," Arvach embarked on himself.
"Will those ingredients, genos, influx?
"Hmm. Selling it to Gerd or not will be the decision of Marquis Genos. But we want a trade in food, not silver coins."
Malstein smiled loosely and turned to Alvach.
"If so, you have to be able to buy more quantities of ingredients from Gerd. Is that possible?
"It's possible," Alvach said.
Nanaquem had a slight opening of his mouth. He was barebacking, but Kakku sighs silently.
"Regardless, you will actually need to see if the ingredients you present here are worth buying or not. With regard to the transfer of the people of the North, we would like you to bring back the goods for confirmation, as we are supposed to have half the cargo from the side of Genos."
"I understand. So jewelry is after the full month."
Malstein was smiling satisfactorily.
After all, I'm losing me to this sudden development. As expected, or because it was more than expected, it was so disturbing.
(In other words, it's not a sudden decision on this occasion to have the goods brought back to the cargo truck for transport. Did Robros come to this dinner party after assuming from the beginning to that)
If so, it is something that is readily available. I kept working on this idea under the water, showing the Alvach and the others how to avoid it.
(But if that's the case -)
And when I caught a thought, the neighbor Ai-Fa stood up without a sound.
"I am delighted, even for me, that I have been allowed to do business with Gerd. - So, I'd like to give this seat to Refraia and Tolsto, would you mind?
"Mm-hmm. We don't mind. Thank you for your time, Asta."
With Malstein's permission, we were to pull back to the side of the round table.
Lifreia and Tolsto will then be seated in the vacant seats. The two seats were originally vacant, but the Refraiers stood all the way out dressed to wait for their turn.
(... I wonder if Roblos has any ideas about Chiffon-Cher as well?
That's what I was thinking.
Whether you know what I think or not, Refraia is smiling with her face. But in his eyes, which were pale in colour, there remained a much more challenging light.
