Episode 301: Late Night Tea Party ④

Late at night.

In the dormitory cafeteria, Kazura and Eira drank herbal tea.

It's been a long time since I came to the fort for a late night tea party.

Not knowing when the Barber Army's assault would begin, she invited Eila to take care of one of her nervous looks.

"Hah... it's been a long time since you had a tea party.It's kind of so peaceful.... "

Sip a sip of Eira's brewed honey-filled German chamomile tea and sigh with relief.

Ella smiled gently at him.

"It's been tingling for a long time now."I thought it was necessary to take this breath out. "

"I'm sorry you took the trouble.The moment I drank tea, I felt my shoulders relaxed at once.Hah, you're healing me... "

Funayaka's unconscious face is the best way to hold a cup with herbal tea with both hands.

The tea ceremony at this time, when the great anxiety disappeared, was just the best time, even shortly after the Clairats' operation went well.

If this had been before the success of the operation, it would have been over the sky even with tea.

"Fufu, I'm glad you said that.This steamed bread is also a confident product, please eat it. "

Eira brings the wooden dishes closer together.

There are four small, round steamed breads with a sweet aroma.

It's a simple thing made from just eggs, milk, and sugar.

"Thank you... nh, this is delicious!"

The bite eased her cheeks.

Fluffy sweet aroma with a subtle sweetness and a smooth tongue.

Without complaining, I scored a hundred points.

"After all, Ella's sweets are the best!It's comparable to famous stores in Japan! "

"Oh, that's just too much praise."The cake I received in Grisea Village the other day was really delicious and surprising. I'm still here. "

"No, no, that's not true.I think you're the best cook in the Mansion.It's better to open a shop. "

So, that's too complimentary.

Ella makes her face red.

Afterwards, while I was chatting with this, the topic became that of Eira's family.

Huh. Ella-san, did you buy your parents a house?

When Ella's parents suddenly came out, one of them looked surprised.

"Yes, about six months ago. It was in the middle of town, so it was quite expensive."

"Oh, that's great. What kind of house did you buy, by the way?"

"It's a second-hand, two-storey, stone house, and all the interiors were newly renovated before moving in. On the first floor there is a kitchen, dining room, office, lounge, reception room, bath, toilet, and a courtyard with wells, and on the second floor there are two bedrooms and two rooms."

"Amazing number of rooms! And you even have a bath!"

Among the general population of Isteria, those who live in houses with baths are quite unusual.

Only some luxury lodgings and wealthy people have baths.

"Ah, even if it's a bath, it's a sauna bath that burns medicinal herbs and enters, rather than soaking in a bathtub like the one in the Mansion.After it warms up, I take a bath and sweat and grime out. ”

"I see, the sauna... but it's still amazing."It's quite a mansion, isn't it? "

"Ehehe, I think it's the best house around here."

Ella smiles a little proudly.

"My parents were very happy, and I was excited to say, 'I'm a proud daughter.'"

"I know... but I thought you'd give me a house."

"My old parents' house is getting a lot older, so I wanted to buy them a new house.When I was looking for this, Zirconia found the property.It was well made and beautiful, and I managed to pay for it, so I decided to buy it. "

“Do you like Mr. Zirconia?”

Aura looks surprised.

As a matter of fact, there were a few circumstances when Zirconia recommended the property to Eira.

Ella had previously been tasked by Zirconia with the task of "connecting Better and Reese," in exchange for the superior treatment of doubling her salary.

Zirconia thought it would be difficult for her to be forced to retire for "some reason", although the employment contract tied down that "Eira cannot cancel the employment contract for the next 10 years."

To get rid of that anxiety, the chat brought up the topic of filial piety to Eila, and she was encouraged to buy a good property from the amount of money and savings.

The idea is that you won't quit anything while you're paying your mortgage.

"Yes, I was surprised to hear from you personally.And thanks to Zirconia's cleverness, the instalment rate was very low. "

"Oh, that's great!How many years is an installment? "

“It's been 15 years, and I ran out of savings.”

Eheh, Ella smiles bitterly.

"I-I see... but it's too great for Ella to be able to be so filial."Besides, you served your brothers who went to college in King's Landing, right?I'm really impressed with my family. "

"Oh, no..."

Eira's face turns red as she shines.

I've been praised for a while now, and I feel a bit dizzy inside.

Now I don't know which tea party was for, Eira says to herself.

"Still, the sauna bath... there's no sauna in Narsson's house, is there?Next time, let's ask them to make a new one. "

"Ah, well, why don't you come in at my parents' house?"

Eh, is that okay?

Ella smiles with a smile as she makes a face full of expectations.

"Yes, it feels so good that you'll love it.I always use medicinal herbs that improve my nose and throat, but after I take a sauna bath, I can sleep very well. ”

"Well, that's the effect... what kind of sauna bath is that?"

"Well, it's half buried underground in a shape like this."I made it through the huge rocks that were originally on the site. "

Eira traces the table with her fingers.

Semi-circular ceilings appear on the ground, like saunas made out of natural rock.

"Wow, that's amazing... it's so luxurious!"When I hear it, it sounds more luxurious than the baths in Nelson's Mansion. ”

"Ahaha. that's not true.It takes a lot of money to boil water to bathe everyday, so I just take a sauna. "

"Ah, it costs fuel and it's hard to get water."

Yes, it would be easier if you twisted the faucet like in Japan.

Listening to that, Kazuyoshi thinks, "Hmm."

If Eira is right and draws water throughout the city, the living conditions of the citizens will improve considerably.

When the war is over, you may want to try the water business.

"Okay, then, when the war is over, let's make a tap."

"What!? Are you making something similar to Japan!?"

"Yes," nodded Era, surprised.

"I don't think it's exactly the same thing, but the idea of pulling water and sewerage into Istria came from a Japanese vendor.It's totally a merchant design, but there's nothing you can't do about it. "

"Please! Pumping water, really hard work... twist the faucet and fresh water will help everyone!"

"Yes, talk to Valletta later -"

Hey

Wow!?

When I was excited about the conversation, I was suddenly called from the window.

Suddenly, the wild voice echoed in their brain, and they unexpectedly screamed.

"Oh, Mr. Olmasiol... don't be surprised..."

"I thought my heart would stop..."

Olmasiol said, "I'm sorry."

Looks like you're sitting on the roof.

A slender cylinder of wood is placed in her mouth.

"Ah, Ella, are you sleepy?"

"It's okay. I'm surprised, and it's gone... ah, but it's a little fluffy."

Just the two of you.I didn't do anything strong enough to faint. "

Olmasiol enters the cafeteria through a sleigh and window.

Earlier, the man who took them down said he found something strange.

Say that and put the sucked cylinder on the table.

There was blood stuck to the cylinder.

"Wow, it's bloody... what is this?"

I smell charcoal and paper from inside.Isn't it a letter?

"Letter?"

When Ikari took the cylinder, it was like a cylinder for sure.

Twist the top side to open the cylinder and take out the letter inside.

"Eh... hmm!? This is it!"

Ella looked anxious at her faint face.

"Kazura-sama, what does it say?"

"... it says, 'Senator is about to use a poison gas weapon.'He wants to stop it somehow.It's signed by General Kylen. "

Eh!?

Eila turns her face pale.

Ichira stood up and looked at Ormasiol.

"Mr. Olmasiol, did you kill the message you brought me?"

"... that's what I heard. I'm sorry."

Olmasiol looks fluffy and drips ears and tails.

"Hmm. I need to get back to you quickly... tell Eila, Zirconia and Valletta to wake up and come to the meeting room."I'm going to get Nalson and the others. "

Yes!

Ella left the cafeteria in a hurry.

"Mr. Olmasiol, can you get the body of that message to the north gate so it doesn't hurt as much as possible?"

I understand.

Ormasior jumped out of the window.

One of them rushed to Narsson's room.
