Senpensekai no Madoushoshi

SECTION XI Frettelri

Zaza, zaza......

The Flammy is sailing full of wind and traveling south on Anne Libretta.

It will be four days today after leaving Auschnell, the dragon country, to enter Lowenna, the first foreign country. Though there is some greenery left along the river, it is no longer enough to say that anything that can be called trees at all, and only a short grass grows.

Other filling sights are sand, sand and sand. Strong sunshine brought about by the sun floating in a blue sky with no clouds. Only a desert shines like glitter and sand gold in the wake of it.

Now if there's a castle or something that looks upside down by a tower or mirage made of sand, it's already a world in the story.

"Ugh, I guess I failed... I guess I should have been honest there...... But then Carol even made fun of me for coming back, not just Toslin..."

But with that view on my ass, I'm nodding around on the stern right now. He sits down bending his body between the barrel and the barrel, groaning even bumps and sighing.

(But your sister stays like this...)

According to Mr. Kutuna's story, in the afternoon he will reach his destination, Fretelli. Fretelli is a port town made into a delta where the sea and rivers are connected. In other words, the sea is close, and the evidence is already beginning to smell of tide. They say this is already a place called steam water where seawater and freshwater mix together.

If there were a priest in that church in Fretteri, your sister would almost certainly break her vows if it stayed this way. Then you won't have to keep men away like you've always done, and you'll have more opportunities to talk to them.

How do you know? That's so sweet. Unlike me, your sister is beautiful. A beauty that catches people's attention just standing. This has been proven by a recent incident in the canal.

"When that happens, I'm more and more driven into the corner, less time with my sister... Someone I don't know..."

I was caught in this swirl of thought, the last few days. This is how we spend the day depressed, the night brings our heads to light, wandering through a maze with no exit in sight.

"... that's no good, is it? No, you can't. How hard do you think I tried to be special to that guy? How brave do you think you've been?

I can still remember it vividly. When I told him I wanted to be special, directly, in the bath where the flowers from Auschnell Church were floating. I was so nervous that my heart was about to pop out. Whatever I would do if they refused, I was terribly scared.

But Mr. Rose... he took my thoughts and made me his sister. You made me your own until you told me what you didn't like about me.

"Well... if you think objectively, there's no way your sister would give a guy priority over me, and my sister, I guess I should be happy with that one growing up..."

(Understanding and convincing are different... Being narrow, monopolistic and jealous, I don't like the feeling of being stolen from my sister...)

He lifted up the face he was burying between his knees and looked up at the narrow skies shredded by the barrel and the rim of the ship (Funali). Instead of the clouds, the tail of the water dragon was twitchy there. Seeing the river in the sky flowing slowly, I realize.

(Oh, I... I'm hiding something...)

Your sister is so honest with me, I'm lying to that guy.

"Oh, no. That doesn't work any better. No, no, no, no, no."

Stupid I thought this chest moya moya was just due to jealousy. But it wasn't. Behind the jealousy, even guilt was disputed.

"... after all, let's say it. I'll be honest with you."

Maybe that doesn't change anything. After all, your sister may be able to finish her vows and return to a normal woman. No, I guess it will.

But that's fine. Because that guy should care about me. Because to the extent that the oath is gone, this relationship can't possibly change.

"Okay. If you decide that, tell your sister quickly..."

You must be worried because I've been so suspicious the last few days. I need to tell him quickly and reassure him.

"Whoa! Iris, where have you been?!? It's time to get to Fretterli. Huh!? Get ready!!

"What... Huh!?

As I stood up and slapped my butt, I heard Toslin calling me.

"You're lying, right? Already? It wasn't afternoon to get there!?

I rushed to the bow where everyone was gathered.

"To Fretelli, thank God!!

Get off the Tallap that connects the Flammy to the harbor as Carol draws her hand.

"Hey... Carol, quick. Come down slower."

Fretelli is a bigger port town than we were talking about, and the size of the port is more than double that of Ariengelda. The harbour that leads to the outer sea means that the ships that are stopping at the harbour are large, and inevitably the waves are intense, shaking the talap.

"Ha, I thought it would fall..."

I put my foot on the harbor trying to stick to Carol, who got off earlier, and I breathe a build-up in my chest.

"Hey, my hands are blocked"

"Oh, oh, I'm sorry, Carol"

Releasing her hands, Carol was fixing the position of the dagger she lowered to both hips.

"Fine, but don't be too alarmed, okay? As you can see, there are a lot of people out there, so there might be a sleigh or something."

"Oh, shit, yeah?

I look around with Kyolo Kyolo. Carol was right, it was the number of amazing people. On second thought, if there were more ships, there would be more luggage for it, and there would inevitably be more people to fry and unload it. And if the ship is bigger, the number of sailors increases for that matter. It was only natural that there would be more people gathered in the harbor.

"And I wouldn't even blatantly kick ass that way. Then you'll know you're not used to traveling in one shot, so you'll be stopping by for merchandising, right?

"Oh, yeah. Be careful..."

"... well, but... come on. If I had Atashi, I could chase the sale back, and I wouldn't donate the pickpockets in the first place. On the other hand, Atashi slipped back!!

Guess I constricted, Carol stepped aside and said so.

"Haha, but I don't know about slipping it back"

"It's an easy win. Suri people are mostly defenseless at that moment. Aim there..."

"Oh, someone told you something you shouldn't listen to."

"Absolutely, absolutely..."

Carol's good smile froze in an instant.

"I don't think so, Mr. Carol..."

The Lord of his voice is his sister, who has just descended from the Tallap, to say nothing.

"Shit, I didn't. No!! I didn't do it at work, except when I needed it! So stop penning your butt!!

Carol with a blue expression ran out pussy and in an instant hid on Toslin's back.

"Oh, hey, don't stick around. Because it's hot."

"Just now, just now, just be patient!!

"Huh? What the hell... Damn. I'm sorry to interrupt. Or you can help me."

Toslin is just getting down first and putting horse gear on Goltmund. It was a carriage that ran down a bad road and one wheel came off, but I only received the material in the canal where I repaired the Flammy and got Ritzereich to fix it. The truth was that you would provide me with a better carriage then, but I declined. Although a fine roofed carriage is certainly good, because this is a thoughtful carriage that we have bought, repaired and overhauled.

"Yes, sir. I'll help. Oh, Gortmund. I'm in a good mood today. Well, naturally. I live every day surrounded by beautiful women like you."

"Beauty is the most remote word from you."

"What the hell!?

Your sister laughed bitterly when she saw Carol and Toslin start the usual array. I laughed at it too.

"Long time no see."

"Huh?"

"I haven't seen you for a long time since you laughed"

By the carriage where the luggage was already carried. He pulled my hand to that place where the shadow of the sail stretched out, and his sister said so. The sun is strong, but if you put it in the shadows this way, the sea breeze blows and it's somewhat cool.

"... you haven't been well lately, have you? I don't care what you hear, it's empty. I was worried."

"Oh, excuse me..."

"You don't have to apologize."

Your sister stood face to face with me, flushing my eyed hair from left to right. And keep looking at me.

"Just talk to me if you need anything. I'm your sister, so if you have any troubles, I miss you."

"Yes..."

Your sister's scarlet eyes blink a few degrees. The light that dwells there is colorful and shoots through my chest sharply. It's as if you're illuminating the bottom of your heart with a warm red light and looking for my feelings as you hide.

"Oh, um... sister"

"What?

This guy really cares about me. He treats me politely and carefully, as if I were a treasure. Then again, I shouldn't be hiding anything. Let's uncover everything in our hearts. It's okay. This guy will surely take my feelings. It reassures me.

"Before you go to church, could you please give me some time? I'd like to speak to your sister in private."

"... alone?

My sister repeated that with a true face as she combed my hair with her fingers, which aroused courage to say so.

"... can't it?

"I can't believe you can't do that, can you? Yeah, okay. Let me hear your story then."

Your sister lifted my hair and kissed my expansive forehead. I felt the soft lip feel coming through my forehead and my body temperature went up even though I said it was shaded.

"Oh, sister!?

"Hehe, I'm sorry. Your forehead is really cute. That's why I want to follow you."

Like a kid whose prank was found out, your sister got laughed at. We've been together a long time, but this may be the first time we've laughed like this.

"Also, uhh...... nothing is as good as a kiss, but tell me you will when you do. 'Cause I'm surprised."

"Oh, okay? Then I'll do it again."

I must be bright red all over my face right now. It's embarrassing to see such a face.

"If you say so... isn't it time for Kutuna and the others to come back?

Half forcefully change the subject, claw ahead and kick over your sister's shoulder.

"Yeah, right. Shall I come to you then?"

Your sister very naturally tangles her fingers in my right hand. It's usually a trick that never happens, but it was kind of itchy because it was after they kissed me.

In front of the moored Flammy, we and Mr. Kutuna turn to each other.

"Well, here we are."

"Oh, thanks to those guys, I was able to get there a lot faster than planned. Thank you."

"Oh, I can't believe I'm thanking you... We just repaid the saluenas for their help..."

When Saluena shook her hand, Mr. Kutuna, who didn't move much expression, blushed slightly. Mr. Noelia, is a quiet person a thrill to someone like Saluena?

"Thank you for your help, Mr. Peach Seeds"

"Nothing, as Kutuna said, we just returned the favor we received from you. So you don't have to thank me."

"Oh, yes. That's right!! There are still plenty of unrepayable favors for the Iries, so if you need anything again, say it any time!!

"Haha, thanks for the Plumshees too"

"Ha-ha-ha!?

If Mr. Peach Seeds is followed by a handshake with the Plum Seeds as well, she will solidify. Little by little when we're together for a long time, but I get it. This is a foretaste of the usual seizures.

"What are the Plumshees going to do now?

"What, what!? Uh, eh! What did you do?

"Take it easy. We'll take the load we brought from Auschnell in this city for now. Wait for instructions from Golby after that. You're supposed to get a letter, but until then, I think you're doing a relaxing adventurer here."

"Oh, yes, it was. It was. So whenever you need us. Oh, if it's for Mr. Iris, I'll do anything!! Even the ship is ready to go!! Heh heh. ♪ Hey!? Hey!? That's certainly what we were talking about!?

"Yeah, that's what I'm getting instructions from Golby. So call me if you need a ship."

"Thank you, Mr. Kutuna"

Finally, Mr. Kutuna and I also shook hands and we ended our first farewell at the port of Fretelli.
