Konjiki no Moji Tsukai (Reboot)

28: Gourmet hunting

While bathing in the sunlight from the clouds, the sun coloured his glasses with his right hand and he exhaled at the sight that was spreading in front of him.

A short distance away you can see the city of destination. I've been walking all this way, so the reality that I didn't want to see jumped into where I was happy to finally get some rest in the city.

"Hey, Hyiro! I didn't just stand there and help!

Anold Ocean, a chef and adventurer with short, upside-down blue hair and one of his travellers, is shouting while holding his sword with both hands.

Behind it stood Muir, protected by Anold.

And beside Muir, Winka, who had a spear that seemed disproportionate to his small height, stared at those in front.

The sun color takes a little behind them, feels troublesome in the present situation, and leaks one more sigh.

It's, for example, multiple beings standing in the way. It is as big as a human head and has long thorns in it like a cactus. There is only one big eye in the center, with two short legs stepping on the earth.

(Ha ~, it's almost a city, but it's a monster...)

If possible, I didn't want to be tired anymore, but since the anode is noisy as it is, I have no choice but to pull out the "bayonet tsuranuki" that I carry on my waist.

"Whoa! Not one!

The monsters that Anold was rushing into were doubled with a great sword.

Two monsters attack Winka at the same time, but she flashes her spear quickly with no expression. The two animals were cut lightly.

"... weak"

Aww!

It was Skywolf, a puppy-like monster slightly away from her, who barked in response to Winka's voice. His name was Honeymaru. It is cute that the wings and tails that grow on its back are moving smoothly.

Hiiro-san! I'm going that way!

Inform Muir of the presence of a daylight locking monster passing by ignoring Anold. And politely, the three coming are lined up vertically.

Hmm, it's convenient.

When the Japanese color points the tip of the sword toward the monster at the front, it focuses on the blue magic on the index finger of the right hand and writes a letter on the sword. The letter I wrote was "Shin".

Stretch out, Character Magic !

At the end of the Japanese word, a discharge phenomenon occurs from the written text, and the sword is stretched instantaneously. The monster penetrated as it was, and the three monsters were beautifully skewered.

Muir glanced at the day when he crushed the monster and stroked his chest down.

I'll leave the rest to Osan and the others.

I felt that my work was finished, so I wrote the "original" letter on the sword, activated it, and put the sword back to its original length and put it back into the sheath.

Due to the rain the other day, I stepped on the muddy earth and heard footsteps making a sticky sound.

And he stopped, and looked at the city that spreadeth from the high hills to the present day. I am wearing a faded robe that may have been dirty on my journey, and I cannot confirm my expression because I wear it to the hood.

Still, it seems that only the mouth is smiling.

And when a small sigh of breath is exhaled, a bag like a big backpack on your back is lowered to the ground.

Open the mouth of the bag and stick your right hand inside. I heard something rubbing against each other, and there was a brush in my right hand.

When I pinched the brush with my mouth, I put my right hand in the bag again. Then we take out a large plate from there. The shape is generally rectangular and of a length x width (30 cm x 35 cm).

The board was affixed with pure white paper. Then he takes out a pad-like object and pours a colorful paint-like liquid into a plurality of indentations therein.

With his hips resting on the ground, he sat cross-legged and placed the board on his lap, and now he started drawing something on paper with a brush poured into the depression.

Apparently, the man took out a set of paintings, and now he seems to be drawing. Do you also draw the scenery of the city that is spreading before your eyes? I thought so, but it's a completely different thing to be born on paper.

It depicted the scenery of the mountains far beyond the city, not the city. Apparently, it wasn't the city he was looking at from the beginning, it was the landscape beyond.

Without hesitation, he moved his brush and thrash. In an instant, life breathes into a world that was pure white.

It is excellent, and the degree of completion is such that it can be sold in stalls and the like. I can get the money. In other words, his ability to paint is extraordinary.

The person who drew it up in a little bit nodded convincingly by comparing the sight and the picture that spreads before him.

At that time, a small object came from the sky with a small noise called Chun Chun. The figure was a bird like a sparrow.

But the strange thing is that the color of the birds is the same as if they were wearing green paint from the head.

When the bird stops on his shoulder, it shakes his mouth (beak) little by little by his ear as if he were talking in private.

"... heh"

So for the first time, the man leaked his voice. As far as the voice was concerned, he looked like a man. As the man stretched out his fingertips and stroked the bird's head, the bird went up into the sky again.

The man had been drawing several pictures on the spot for some time, but he focused his gaze in one place on what bothered him a lot. Behind them were four people who would be travelers.

However, there were monsters appearing in front of the four and it looked like they were in battle. Their strength is considerable and the monsters are defeated in an instant.

The man's first watch was the sudden stretching of one of the swords. I took out three monsters in an instant, and my arm was brilliant.

The man whistled as if he had admired the work. At the end of the battle, the man observes the four with interest.

There is a small blue beast near the four. As I approached Tsukoto and one of them, he stroked my head. Nature sees people who are close to monsters.

"That's...."

As she murmured, she smiled slightly. Behind her eyes is a girl with yellow hair. And the next thing I noticed was the other person. A black-haired boy wearing a red robe is also conscious.

There are not many dark-haired beings in this world.

Therefore, it is understandable to look at it as unusual, but the light of a man's eyes is not only in that sense, but also in other meanings. The boy is the one who stretched the sword anyway.

As the man followed him with his eyes, a yellow-haired girl stopped and tried to look back as if she had noticed the man.

"What's the matter, Will?

Crusading against all the monsters, Anold sighed and shouted at Wincaa, who was solidifying.

Winkaa's eyes turned toward the hills as she received Anold's voice behind her back.

"What's the matter, Mr. Wie? Something over there?

Muir, wearing a cute big hat on his head, turned his face in the same direction as Winkar, seemingly concerned as Anold.

"... because of your mind?

Winka is a girl with yellow hair tied in three braids at the back and running all the way to her waist, but a bundle of hair popping out like an antenna over her characteristic head is swaying as if she was receiving something.

She slanted her neck and stared further into the hill.

But there's nothing there. At least it looks like it to everyone.

"... it's really your fault, isn't it?

Anold and Muir look each other in the face and stare at Winka, who mutters and doesn't answer questions.

Anolds know this is not the first time they've done something like this, but they're still not moving against Winka.

"What the hell is going on, Wie?

Anold mysteriously distorted his robust expression and turned back to Winka.

"Nh... nothing"

Winka shakes her head to the side and starts walking again as if nothing had happened.

Looking at her like that, they both started walking as Muir was convinced by Anold's saying, "Well, don't be silly."

But it wasn't just the Anolds who had any doubts about Winkar's actions.

Himura Nikko, a black-haired boy with dark eyes, was still looking at the hill Winkaa was staring at earlier.

Eyes that shine sharply behind those glasses are as thin as hunters looking for prey.

I was staring at it for a while because I felt something like winka or I felt uncomfortable with what Winka cared about.

"Hey, Hyiro, let's go!

In response to Anold's call, it feels like the back of my hair is pulled, and the sun color cuts its gaze from the hill and advances.

"What I don't see over there is [Sage]! We're almost across the border!

Muir also smiled at Anold's pleasant voice.

They are delighted to realize that the border is approaching, as the overriding goal was to cross the border from human to veterinary.

I'm not happy because the sun has come here to cross the border again. I was just walking, so I was hungry and a little upset.

Also hungry is not only the sun colour, but also Winka and Honeymar, a dog-like monster walking next to them.

Incidentally, Honeymar is a wolf-shaped monster called Skywolf, with wings growing on her back.

Wincah and Honeymar were drooling when we talked about eating a full stomach when we got to the city earlier.

Of course, the color of the sun didn't go down until it drooling, but I can't deny that I entered the city earlier than the border and wanted to rest.

With their feet moving faster naturally, the four of them headed for Sage, the nearest city to the border.

The man who had confirmed that the sun coloured men were heading for [Sage] was once again observing four people on a small hill.

Exhale gently and relieve yourself, and the corners of your mouth are sharply raised. I'm glad I didn't find it.

At that time, Winka noticed a sign of the man and turned her eyes. But the man moved faster and succeeded in hiding.

"In the moonlight... red robe...?

Murmuring the words that capture the characteristics of Winkaa and the characteristics of Japanese color, the set of painting materials goes into the bag.

Again, you look at the back of four and one, and you look happy.

"That sounds interesting. Let's try a little touch."

When he said that pleasantly, he carried the bag on his back and started moving his feet towards [Sage].

A row of Japanese colours arrived in Sage, a city near the border. But something unexpected was happening there.

"Hey, what the hell is this?

"Come on...."

When the sun coloured her eyebrows in a mood, there was Anold who was twitching her cheeks next to her.

In front of them now are people running stalls and gathering crowds. You can see a crowd of people around it that would be billions of robberies.

This population density and the enthusiasm that comes from it can be depressed for the noisy sun.

"Ki, is today a festival...?

The cute Muir tilted his neck, but his eyes were either touched or radiant. Perhaps he is inspired by the impressive array of shops.

"Nh... so much good smell"

Aww!

Winka and Honeymar sniff each other's noses and drool as they move their gaze at the smell of various foods coming from the shop.

So Anold, who had been thinking about it for a while, became a hack.

"Wait a minute, is today the day of Ului?

"Yes, uncle."

Incidentally, "Ului" corresponds to "The Moon" in this world.

Jan Narwyn Feb Ninui Mar Gwaeron

April, Gwillis, May, Rothron, June, Noroui.

July, Kelves, August, Uruguay, September, Ivannes.

October Narbeles November Jade December British Ron

This is the flow of the moon in this world, each for 30 days. Incidentally, the age number is "Anol History", and now it is "Anol History 2114".

"What was that day?

"Hyiro, don't you know? This is the annual La Air Festival."

"La Air Festival"?

There are seasons in this world as well. A name that means spring, summer, autumn and winter in Japan.

Spring, Summer, La Air

Autumn Yavas Winter Liu

"This season is La Air, right? I'm going to blow this heat away, and it's going to be so crowded everywhere."

Listen to Anold's explanation.

I see. It's just a summer festival.

When I am convinced of the color of the sun, it becomes more unpleasant. Even though it's hot and it's hot and bitter by the side, this crowd is fuelling it even more. Unbearable.

"Don't you think you're being rude?

"Ah? Nothing. I just thought it was hot and painful."

"Hey! You're not going to lie or say anything to deny it! What are you honestly saying, Korah!

They say it's hot and painful.

"This kid is really..."

Anold is shaking with his fist. Muir's face appears in Anold's sight. The face was upbeat, and the eyes reflected the crowd moving around.

Anold pops his hand like he came up with something.

"I made up my mind! Whatever you say, I've decided!

"What suddenly? Have you finally gone crazy?

"Ugh!

Muir and the others are twitching their eyes.

"You're taking a place here today, right? Enjoy the festival anyway!

Not only Muir but Wincaa brightens her expression with a paah. Seems pretty happy.

In fact, I wanted to enjoy this kind of festival, but maybe I couldn't tell you. Winka just wants to eat food.

"Well, then you guys are going to have fun. I'll have dinner at the inn first."

"Wait a minute."

When the sun was about to come out, Anold grabbed her shoulders.

Let go of me.

"No, no, this is not the time, is it? Fun festival?

"Not interested"

"Hmm, can I say that?"

"... what happened?

Anold's index finger is shiny.

I felt a little uneasy on that face and wanted to overthrow it, but I endured it.

"Ready? The" La Air Festival "held in this [Sage] is quite big."

…………

"I wonder if it's a store ~. Besides, it's characteristic of this place to have super popular stalls!

I was a little attracted to the word "super popular shop" and my eyebrows were sparkling in the sun.

"And [Sage] is competing for which stalls were the most popular. Well, the grocery store usually wins... you know what I mean?

"...... I see, there's something quite delicious out there?

"You think I'm satisfied?

"Hmm...."

Anold is familiar with the world situation.

It seems that this [Sage] festival is not the first. There will be no lie in the words you say. I don't see any reason.

Then, your index finger starts to move greatly in the word "delicious".

With all due respect, the sun colour appeared in front of everyone as if remembered.

"Oh, hey."

Anold seemed disappointed to see the color of the day moving without answering anything and wondered whether his persuasion was meaningless, but the color of the day said this while looking ahead.

"Lead the way quickly. What if the best stuff is sold out, pervert?"

"Heh, don't say pervert!

Anold raised his eyes and yelled, but his mouth was slightly broken.

I'm excited that the Muirs are looking forward to it. Four and one decided to enjoy the festival for a while.

"..." Burning Peach Candy "?

The colour of the sun whispers while looking at the sign of the stall.

Anold was impressed, too, and he opened his eyes and spoke.

"Oh, this is another rare fruit selling!

"Hei, welcome! Come on, make it cheap!

The cheerful Oyaji, the owner of the stall, waves his love. Muir and Wincah glanced at Burning Peach Candy lined up on the street.

"Oyaji, four of these... no, five of them!

Anold put Honeymar's share in the number. Winka thanked him and laughed, "That's fine."

"Aye! Oh, the ladies are so cute, let's give them an extra-large toy!

"Ah, thank you... eheheheheheheh"

"Nh... grandma's fat"

Muir and Wincah smiled with joy.

I also received each of the Japanese colors, and I first observed them.

And the sun color says, "Is it delicious?" Ask Anold.

"Oh, that's awesome. Fruit shaped like a burning fire. It's candy but soft enough to chew easily. Well, if you try it, you'll know what burning is like."

That's what they said. I'll try eating a bite of Japanese colour.

Crunchy, definitely rodented without much resistance. When I was tasting it in my mouth, something suddenly burst out in my mouth.

"Nhhh!?

"Hehe, are you surprised? Flapping fruit on the tongue. That's the culmination of this Burning Peach!

Anold shouts with pride. This was certainly a habitual taste. It's not too sweet and yet you can enjoy the texture. I decided that this would be a popular substitute for children.

Muir also put his hands on his cheeks, melting his face into the deliciousness and texture. Wincaa was enjoying her cheeks with her little mouth fully open, and Honeymaru was also eating gadgets.

Sometimes I was hungry, and the sun immediately calmed down amidst the crowds.

"Ugh! There we go next!

Under Anold's leadership, we're going to go on a gourmet hunt.

(I see, this is the festival. If there is something delicious, it may not be bad.)

When I was in Japan, there were things that were fresh and quite attractive to Japanese people who had never been to festivals.

But without this crowd, I think it would be better if it weren't for the sun.

There are many stalls that are common at Japanese festivals, such as shooting and lottery draws.

Muir enjoyed that kind of play with Anold and Winkaa, but after walking for a while, the spiritual parameters of the Japanese color finally began to cross the limit.

(Oh, no. I wonder if all of them will disappear after being hit and stepped on by someone just now)

I was beginning to think terrible things. A large stall can be seen there. Here's what it says on the street sign.

Happiness Shark Sandwiches

Anold, who was looking at the sign in the same way, looked stunned as if he had seen a ghost.

"Oh, no way... that Happiness Shark...?

"You know what?

"Ah, of course! If you're a cook, it's the ingredient you'd like to try once!

From that excitement, I could speculate that it was an extra substitute.

"Ready? Happiness sharks only inhabit the [Greater Blue Sea]. Besides, it's only in the deep sea, so it rarely comes up. It is rare (rare) in Honto, but may appear on the sea surface for a short time during the spawning season. The body is beautiful peach, producing jade horns on its head. It's a creature called the Complete Eater, which can eat your whole body, your teeth, your body, and your horns!

Anold is trembling his whole body and talking hot, but basically he is not interested in living things, so he is listening to the color of the sun from right to left. There is only one thing I want to ask.

"So, is it delicious?

"Of course! You know what? Their body tastes... better than Aquahound's Meat!

"Go get it. Right now."

In a moment, the eyes of the Japanese color changed, and there was a similar power to killing intentions.

"Oh, oh... but..."

"What is it?"

"You want to see it?

Hmm?

At the tip of Anold's finger, there was something like a rattlesnack that was often seen in shopping streets. There were many people lined up around it.

"I'm sure there's a limit to how many... I can only feed the guy who won it."

"What...?

A shock runs through your sunny body. I can't believe you came here and chewed your teeth to death for not eating such delicious food.

Seems to be once per person. Besides, I've already won a few more... oh, does it say eight more people on the plate... there's a lot of customers lined up, so it seems impossible. "

I gave up completely and looked at Mood's anold, and the sun gripped my fist with regret.

Winka was pale as well, feeling desperate about Anold's words.

She seems to want to try it on her mouth as well as in Japanese.

(Wait, wait, that "Aquahound Meat" was amazing. But you can't eat anything more than what's in front of you? I don't know if that's okay... no, I'm not giving up!

The color of the sun fluttered up and stared at the store.

"Thank you, Osan."

Ah?

"Thanks for letting me around."

"Even if you say that, you can't eat it...."

"No, there's no reason to give up."

"But I don't think you can do it with common sense.

"Don't joke. If it's common sense that the chances of winning are low, I'll distort that common sense!

The color of the sun sends a glance at those who are rattling. Apparently, the golden balls will come out if they win.

The fact that one hit occurred means that there are seven people left. We must hurry.

(Then....)

The sun concentrates magic on the fingertips. A pale, pale light flashed on my index finger.

Hey, guys, give me your hands.

"" "...... huh?

The three of them are poca ~ n for their Japanese behavior.

One after the other, fewer customers stand in front of the lottery. The winners also appeared, and finally there were only four more "Happiness Shark Sandbags" left.

But fortunately, nobody got lucky from it.

And finally...

It's my turn.

The order of the sun colours has come around.

Gokuri rang his throat, slowly turning the garapon. rattling noises.

------------------------------ Cologne.

Everyone who was there took a breath.

The color of the balls that came out was...
