Shadow Brave's Readventure - Re-Tale of the Brave

Episode 1345: Towards the Fall Festival

A few days after Kate brought home Justitia's notes. It was almost the end of this one. For example, Kate was alert to the movements of the < > while doing paperwork again as she did at all times, and if it was Sola, she was preparing herself for the journey by putting the information given to her by Kate down.

And it's about one day like that. There were visitors at Kate's place or at the top of the Adventure Department. It was also a deliberate client from another city, relatively rarely.

"Master! We have guests from the Temple City! The < > people are coming to the escort! The Branch Manager over there is with us!

"Yeah? A guest from the Temple City? And with Mr. Puri?

Kate looks up from the paperwork she's been rushing to compile about Celestia and the rest of the world over the past few days and blinks her eyes to Siloe's words. Guests from the Temple City are quite unusual.

Because you don't have to think about it. There's a < > branch there. Its size is second only to that of the headquarters of the Republic of Urca, and it was seen how important they attached to the McDawell territory of this empire. And that's why the Temple City people ask the basics < > to do their jobs. That's why I never come here first.

"Hmm...... well, that's why I'm here. That's why I work. Let me through. At last, < > it is faster for seniors to talk. He, too, please."

"Yes."

When Shiloe says so, he disappears through the wall again. That's how Kate leaves Tsubaki ready for hospitality while she guides her guests.

"Tsubaki. It's a temple city. Maybe the priests. Just so you can change the tea system in case it was them."

"Yes, sir."

Tsubaki folds his hips on Kite's instructions and gets ready immediately. And Sora asked Kite like that.

"You're gonna change the tea?

"Oh. Well, there's basically no food or anything that isn't supposed to be a sect dedicated to the Great Spirit. There are many temples in the Temple City."

"For example?"

"Right... you know, Mr. Shamrock. There is also a temple dedicated to him. So is that sister's moon goddess. Look, fanatics when Nanami was kidnapped before. Remember that one?

"Oh, that... no, some executive woman was just brainwashed. What was that?"

Sora nodded as she remembered, saying so to Kite's inquiry. As a religious sect, it is a tribute to the charity that Kate serves as an angel of God. If so, no wonder there is a temple in the temple city.

"That's right. The Great Temple of the Moon in that Temple City. The grand priest's daughter was her. There are other things... well, Rufaus and the others may look bitter, but some of the biggest Luxerian churches in the empire."

Kate makes a clear statement about the church in the Temple City today as she peeps into the faces of Rufaus and Alice, who are still doing paperwork in the office. After all, it's called a temple city, so they have a number of religious temples and churches.

Miscellaneous, whether famous or unnamed, is still a kite of eight million or a unique way of thinking about being Japanese. It should be noted that there was no special reaction from the two of them, but I never thought of anything else.

"That's why it's up to them. Then there's all kinds of useless drinks and useless tea contracts. There, so."

"I knew it was true on Earth, but there's a lot going on."

"Well, it's religion."

Kite laughed and nodded at Sora, who was convinced that she should or should not be surprised. That's fine, though. That's what I found out about Sola. So that was the end of the conversation. and such is their concern, but happiness or unhappiness. This ends in concern.

"Nice to meet you. I'm a merchant in the Temple City. My name is Martz."

It was a man in his early 30s who came before Kite. The personality was merchant-like, clearly not religious and not clerical. I guess we're good merchants, as we say. That's how the man who named him Martz gave him a single business card. And when I saw it, Kate also understood why he came here.

"Oh, thank you...... were you the executive commissioner of the Harvest Festival in Temple City"

"Yes. I procure alcohol at the harvest festival… this time on behalf of the Commission. Oh, this is the wine I made this year. Deliver."

"Oh, thank you. Thank you."

Kate would appreciate a souvenir drink from Martz. The Harvest Festival is a tribute to the great spirits and gods for the many foods that were made that year and for their dedication.

Therefore, it seems that it has long been the practice of the Executive Committee to take objects made this way to the person requesting cooperation. In his case, he is responsible for the procurement and management of alcohol, but that is why. It should be noted that Alice was gazing because of the wine, but now that she is at work, she has decided to be patient.

"Well... so it's rare that the Temple City can come all the way here. And with all the < > people, is there anything…?

"Yep... the harvest festival is still a festival that was originally started by the brave Kate. So there was a story that I would love to have you all join..."

"Oh, you know..."

I don't know for sure. But I don't. Kate is convinced that the more Martz speaks, the better. The clerics of the Temple City had originally asked me to come inside, but this time the Executive Committee of the Festival officially came to ask for it. And of course, there was no reason anywhere to say no to this.

"Right. If that's the case, that's not to say, but I'd love to be a part of it."

"Thank you...... so,. One favor…"

"Ha..."

Well, I guess so. Kate dares to push ahead, even though she thinks so on the inside. I guess so, because a letter would suffice if I just said this in the first place.

I'm not talking about coming until an executive board member of the tournament hires an escort immediately. That's what came over me, so I guess the letter means there's a story I can't get through.

"Before we get down to business, there's one thing I'd like to ask you. First of all, do you know what kind of festival the Temple City Harvest Festival is?

"Yeah, well... I've never participated in it, so... it was a festival to thank the Great Spirit, the God of Abundance, and other nature and life gods for this year's crop harvest and dedicate crops to it, wasn't it?

"Yes… that's not the point of the festival"

Kite is on the organizer's side in the first place. All four festivals in McDawell territory are nominally to be hosted by Kate. And I know the spirit and outline as an organizer with Kite on the boulder. Upon his return, he also properly understood the difference from the time he was in office.

So Martz snorted at Kite's commentary again. Though, so what he wanted to say was the right thing to say, it's not.

"There, is. I was wondering if you could make it to the Fall Harvest Festival's specialty cooking festival."

"Are you at the cooking fest?

"Yes...... did you know how that is?

"Yeah, well... I've seen it before from the student chairman of the Magic Instruction School."

Kite nodded normally because it wasn't enough to hide from Martz's inquiry. I've heard that Killier named one of the judges at a festival to be called this culinary competition before. Kite also remembered that. And Martz nodded with a smile at this as well.

"Oh, from her. Yeah, she's one of the judges. This festival is a harvest festival. So it's one of the most important factors in how you can eat the crops you've made and the harvests you've taken."

"That's right. Seasonal ingredients are still delicious to eat as is, but ingredients are still ingredients to eat. It is only by cooking that people make use of the flavours of their ingredients that they demonstrate their true value. And eating deliciously is our greatest appreciation for the ingredients."

"Ha. You're good... Yep. So, the Harvest Festival is probably the biggest culinary festival in Enefia."

Once again, Martz, who laughed a little at Kate's story, makes it clear that there will be a cooking festival. I guess the spirit is what Kate said. So once again, Martz asks Kite.

"Typically, this tournament has benefited so many participants and has been eaten by so many people. And that's why, for one thing, there's something peculiar about this festival."

"Something special?

"Yes... all recipes used in this competition shall be published. That is the case. I'd like to ask you to join me."

I see. Kate grasped Martz's thoughts. Basically, Japanese cuisine is the only dish that can be eaten near Maxwell or somewhere bordering on Kite. Again, because the basics of cooking in different worlds don't go out of the door, the recipes rarely come out either. If that means that even one will be released, people will arrive from all over the world. It could have been one eyeball to boost.

Nevertheless, Martz won't be able to say that openly, and Kite is not going to dare point it out. Because this kind of thing is naturally something that should be read and not taken after reading. That's why Kate dares to give an apparent reason.

"I see… there's not enough capacity for many people to eat."

"That's right... the ingredients, the personnel, the cooks are finite. Therefore, there is a limit to who can eat at the festival. but then it deviates from the intent of the harvest festival because of it. This is a harvest festival. It's a festival to thank the harvest. But it's the end of the line if you limit the number of people you can eat."

Martz nodded at Kate's words as he seeped through an attitude that was just a little lamentable. So he asks Kite again.

"So, what do you think... No, don't give me much information about Japan after all, so I will also need to consult with Kuzha. You don't have to make a decision right now. There are still days until the harvest festival."

"Oh, yeah. With that said, the harvest festival was good next month, right?

"Oops...... sorry to say that. I totally forgot it because you know it as well as the local people."

Martz took out the Harvest Festival brochure in a bit of a rush to Kite's inquiry. He's right, he thought that Kate knew about the Harvest Festival because she talks about it so flatly that she forgot to give it to McDawell's resident level.

"This is the brochure. The event is a month from next month. In the meantime, it's a very big festival for all kinds of people from all over the world."

"Various people, are you"

"Yes...... right. For example, His Majesty the Emperor is also to come this year with several of your sons. There are other god kings who live on floating continents. He'll see you, too."

Martz tells Kite's inquiry about famous places he seems to know. It's still a harvest festival and a big one, probably because it's supposedly something that Kite started. It seems that not only the gods, but also the great men of different races from all over the world, were supposed to come.

Anyway, it's a festival involving these old customs, and the high-ranking interracials are well received. They respect the old traditions and customs of other races because they adhere to the old traditions. Hence the messenger came, and in some cases the chief of the clan led the clan to come and celebrate.

"That's... you can see the scale. I get it. I cannot conclude on this occasion because Mr. Kuzha told me not to speak cheaply about Japanese information, but if I do, I will participate."

"Thank you. Then please contact us through the Duke's House if you wish to participate. This festival is one of the four festivals. Basically, it will be the Duke's house that is in charge."

"Okay."

Martz stood up, bowing his head to Kate's offer, though he was close to a social decree. As a result, they shook hands and Martz escorted us back to the Temple City again, protected by the < > Alliance members.
