Tearmoon Empire Story
Episode 61: Younger Killer Meer
Meer, who came to the village of the Loulou tribe, received a great welcome.
From Ludwig, who preceded him, the chief, informed of Meer's visit, made the village square ready for the banquet for the welcome.
A banquet featuring a giant lunar wheel (Tsukinowa) boar roasted in a main dish that was hunted by the village men. Meer rounds her eyes at the banquet of the villagers' outing surrounded by a great fire.
"It was sudden, but you're so welcome..."
"It was a lot of noise when I heard that Her Royal Highness Princess Meer was here. I said you don't have to be too flashy..."
Ludwig, who was coming first and helping prepare, shook his head with a bitter smile.
"This is your morality, too, Meer."
I'm joking and I'm telling you, the truth is Ludwig was right.
It is a Loulou tribe that originally cherished benevolence. As the benefactor of the chief's grandson, he could not have remained unfavourable to Meer, who saved the clan from the peril of doom.
And its popularity is much higher than Meer or Ludwig imagined.
As well as those living in this forest, Meer had now earned the favor of those of his clan who were out making money like Riola. That was synonymous with having the armoured archers living all over the empire on their side.
If Meer really wanted to escape, there was so much power in that war that it might work out well.
As for Meer, who knows nothing about that, I was intrigued by the huge roast boar served for dinner...
"Was that boar caught in this forest?
"Yeah, it is. Himedan! I was with you."
Nico, in an upbeat mood, he explained to Meer that he was previously the grandson of a boy, a chief, protected by Meer in the Crescent Zone.
"Well, you are. That's brave... Oh, I did..."
Meer, punching her hand, peered into the boy's face.
"Speaking of which, I didn't hear your name. Again......"
Facing the boy, Meer lifted the chocon, and the hem of her trousers,
"I am Meer Luna Tiermoon. I'm the Empress of the Empire."
The boy who sees it, wow......, opens his mouth, then hurries to kneel and bows his head as he turns his face bright red.
"It's Waggle. Himedan. Once again, thank you. I will never forget that you helped me."
When I looked up, those eyes, staring straight at Meer, were beautiful and clear.
"Oh, thank you, I've had enough, and you don't mind if I forget anything, do you?
Meer smiled in a retreat.
Look at that, Waggle, dye her cheeks red again.
... was, indeed, a younger killer Meer.
"I'm in a good mood, I am. Her Royal Highness Princess Meer"
The chief who came there late bowed his head in front of Meer.
"Good mood, chief. Looks like Waggle and I are getting along."
The chief broke up with her just a little bit of lighting.
"All thanks to Her Royal Highness the Princess,"
"That's not true..., by the way, chief, maybe you've become a little fluent in imperial language?
Meer looks at the chief's face with interest. And, the chief cheeks shyly again.
"I taught my wandering sage lord, a little bit, to practice. Waggle also... Well, it seems that imperial language is easier to speak..."
"Oh? You've met a wise man."
"I often come to the village......, Your Highness, didn't I see you?
"Yeah, I couldn't get back to you because you said you were thinking something."
Meanwhile, Meer throws the mutilated boar meat into her mouth.
The meat, gilly roasted in a flame, had a wonderful flavor, every time it chewed up, the gravy gushed out in my mouth.
- Oh, it's fantastic! Thanks to your failure to meet Ludwig's master, too. Besides, you're so sweet to show me the gaps that come in. It's not enough.
Meer smiles in a good mood. But right next door, Waggle was prickly angry.
"You can't let Meer ignore you..."
"Hehe, thank you for being so angry for me. But I think that's all right, Waggle."
"Huh? What do you mean?
Meer turns a pranky grin on a waggle with a strange face.
"We were able to stop by the Loulou village and see how you were doing."
Then Meer reached out to Waggle's cheek. I'll get you a piece of meat on that cheek, a decent waggle.
The waggle, with his eyes rounded, dyed his cheeks red again to make him nag.
... what a younger killer Meer indeed.
"Thank you, Ludwig. That was brilliant."
"No, I apologize on behalf of my master. I let Her Royal Highness have an unplanned night out. Oh, my God, I'm sorry."
Meer grins with a tickle at Ludwig, who bows her head.
"Oh, that's what you need to hear. Nothing like that. Isn't that right?
If you ask that, Ludwig looks just a little surprised.
"Necessary......, I see. Again..., did you notice Meer..."
"Of course."
- Hmm, that this is a good ingredient to move the talks forward in your favor..., you also seem to have noticed Ludwig...
Meer, furrowing her nose, throws delicious meat into her mouth.
- Come on, I'll let you ignore me tomorrow and put in even more favorable conditions!
