"" "Cheers!
Its pronunciation is the same. But where and when the chanting took place, and people are different. The day after the launch with homeowners like Greg and Bean, this time the launch with the adventurers the Gins were close to was taking place renting out a small store. Touka and Sirius are not in because there are no other children this time.
The feast had been awhile since it began, and the head of this toast was already about to count for the fifth time.
"Waha. Jin, I knew this was delicious!
One of the dishes Jin brought in, Abe is in a pretty good mood for getting drunk as often as she has liked the braised pork horn until it's hollow.
It's something she can do because she rents out the store, but aside from the dishes offered by the store this time, Jin brings in a number of dishes she has made herself. Of course, although permission was obtained from the store side, it is not a very recommended practice. However, this was Jin's personal desire to at least get a taste of the handicrafts he was going to behave for as long as he could not invite him to his home, which he had originally planned.
"That's really delicious. Aren't Aria and the others always able to eat this? I envy you."
"Right. I was going to be good at cooking too, but this is the level to open a store."
Jody, the priest of "Salam's Thorn," nods in tune to Mira, the same 'Wind Seeker' as Abe.
Other occasions include Zach's "Both Arms of the Titans", who met him on a journey through magical fever, "Challenger" led by A-rank adventurer Jade's apprentice, and Albert's "Road to Victory", a synchronization that brings together a total of six groups, or twenty-four adventurers, when the Jins "Feerendunk" are combined.
Exactly too narrow for the LDK at home for this large group to gather together, but I don't feel comfortable talking to you about it. For this reason, renting a store this time ensured the same private space as my home.
"Haha. I'm glad you compliment me, but mine just uses rare condiments. Look, this garlic stir-fried thing that the store made for me is delicious, too, right?
I'm glad to be praised as a gin for cooking, but I also think that the praise is due to the rarity of condiments that are not yet very major in this world, such as soy sauce and miso. That is sometimes too humble as someone with 'culinary' skills, but it was nevertheless the heart of Jin.
"Oh, this store sure tastes good, too. … do you want to continue?"
For Zach, who is trying not to swallow too much alcohol with his promise to Jin, the fact that the food is tastier than booze is now the criterion for choosing a store. A few months after coming to Lienz, it was them who had quite a few shops, but apparently this store joined one of them.
"Ha. I think the store people will be happy. I'll tell you later."
This is not the first time Jin and the others have used this store. I have used it several times before, and this shop is one of the options for dining out, starting with the Windy Pavilion.
The owners and employees of the store were in the store preparing food and booze only at the beginning of the launch, but now that it's over, everyone is out of the store and won't be back until around normal closing time.
This is also to casually tell confidential stories within your peers, but it would be impossible if it were normal. However, the owner of this store was also a former adventurer and participated in the other day's defense battle, which was realized thanks to his gratitude and credit to Jin for his work there.
"-Okay, then it's time to talk."
Where the venue has been so exciting, Jin begins to talk about the current situation we are in and our plans for the future.
A number of paranormal powers, such as his involvement with the Holy Beast and 'ancient magic', which he showed in the defensive battle, are what everyone here actually saw. That's why Jin's story about fear of the possibility of a background check or solicitation match starting in the future was something that everyone could be convinced of.
"And we may all have heard rumors about the wolf-shaped Holy Beast that was active during the earthquake, but the child is our child... or the child we keep from the Holy Beast who cooperated with us during the defense battle. And it was my kid who was spanning it - the Towka."
When the earthquake struck, all the members here were outside Lienz to intercept the 'quasi-run'. So basically only rumors should tell us about the Holy Beast and the girl who rode it (...) around rescuing people who were buried alive during the earthquake.
But this Jin confession was also welcomed more convincingly than surprisingly for most.
"Uh. Me, from afar, but I saw it. I knew it was Towka on the white wolf."
Early in the morning on the day of the showdown, many witnessed the appearance of the Holy Beast - Sirius and the girl who spanned it - Touka running to meet Jin. Abe, who was on sentry duty at that time, was one of them.
"I heard from the guy who said I met him in person. They didn't seem to know their names, but they were talking about a girl about ten years old with silver hair and red eyes, so I thought maybe."
The person Jade spoke to was the adventurers who ran away when Touka was alone in a rescue mission. They see the figure of a cow, as well as the moment Sirius, who was a small dog size, grows big enough to put her on her back. It's just that the only thing they told Jade was the appearance of Towca, and he kept his mouth shut from awe of the Holy Beast about Sirius' change.
"The story of the wolf's holy beast and the silver-haired red-eyed girl is famous."
Colin, the leader of "Salam's Thorn," also nods heavily.
The only thing that's clear about Sirius is that it's wolf-shaped, thanks to the information complexity, but it's part of the silver-haired red-eye thing about the appearance of the cow.
Whatever Jin said in his speech, he hasn't made a huge fuss about asking him to be gentle about his body, but if it means a girl around the age of ten, there was only one towka to apply in the current rienz.
"That's right. If it's just us, we still want to avoid getting caught up in all this noise."
Gin's face turns into something bitter.
So far, thanks to the cooperation of the people of the city, no problems have arisen around Towca, but now, more than a week after the repelling of the rampage, it would also be a matter of time.
"So we decided to leave Lienz for a while before things went wrong. Until it's almost cold."
Upset runs to those who hear the proclamation of the jinn, but soon it turns to convincing. Surely if we stay in Lienz like this, there will be no doubt that they will be caught up in some sort of commotion.
"... I know that's all you got, but when are you going to come back? Until most of it cools...... or most of it sometimes cools?
Higgins, leader of "Both Arms of the Giant," questions. Once the oldest of the members here, he didn't seem to think things would fit so easily.
"Higgins is certainly right. I think it's tough just to set aside time."
Jin is also woven around it.
One of the purposes of this trip was to buy time by telling the entity. Not only do we need to keep most of it cold, but we need to make the most of that time.
"Thankfully, Mr. Greg, Mr. Clark, and various others are supposed to cooperate. As an Adventurer Guild, you can control the information and contact someone you know in Wangdu. And in the end, I think we just have to get some kind of asylum."
Jin is currently under the protection of the Adventurer Alliance, but adventurers can be hired at their request, and it's not uncommon to transfer to another affiliation, such as a city soldier. Being free in a way is also a virtue of the adventurer, so it is difficult to be deterrent about solicitation. Therefore, a definitive asylum or position will be required.
"Is it still a temple?
"So far, I think that's the most realistic thing."
Jin nods at Spica's question. Clark also told me that the temple might work it out.
However, it is also fully conceivable that asylum will require some kind of price, so it is to proceed with caution around it.
"You mean to prevent an elephant from snagging while you're away from Lienz, get a solid back shield, and then come back to Lienz?... Surely Mr. Greg or Mr. Clark shouldn't be doing anything wrong, and maybe that's all they have."
That's what Abe says, looking up to heaven at the end. He said he had done everything he could to repel the rampage, but that Jin must also leave Lienz to protect his family. I couldn't get over that fact.
"I could repel the runoff, and Jin got better. From now on..."
Chris also distorts his face in regret. They came to Lienz because there was a 'labyrinth', but it was one of Chris's purposes to want to be reunited with Jin.
The dissatisfaction with the status quo, which strains the Jins, seems to be more or less a common feeling to everyone here.
"I'm sorry to leave the city at this stage, but I was going to leave the city for a while as well when the labyrinth thing was originally cleared up, and that's just a little quicker,"
Cared for the slightly harsher atmosphere, Jin smiles in a particularly brighter tone. Not that I'm not dissatisfied with the status quo, but I'm just talking about the slightly quicker time to get out of the city and more to do.
"Really? But you won't have to leave the city. Could it be that you were going to an unexplored land?
For the Gins, who became B-ranks, Lienz would never be an efficient hunting ground without the presence of the 'Labyrinth'. If we're going up there, it could be enough to relocate our base to unexplored land.
"No, we talked about getting married next time, didn't we? I thought I'd say hello to your parents before I do."
…………
Receiving an unexpected Gin response, silence dominates the place. The same goes for going out of your way to say hello to your marriage, but you seem to have lost your mind about the fallout from the serious topic just now.
"Aria's already done, so we're going to go first to the village of Sharda, where Elsa's parents are, and then to the King's Capital, where Rachel's parents are. I've got a little more work to do in the Wang capital on this one, but still, I guess it's a couple of months away from Lienz."
Still, Jin feels happy to get married and talks naturally with a smile. But for those of you who were asked about it, even if you heard about getting married in your pre-showdown speech, this was the first time that it was Aria, Elsa, and Rachel.
"The three of us...?
"Shit, this guy..."
"... what an envy"
Oregano, on behalf of a group whose relationship with the Jins is still shallow, and Abe, a group representative who wanted to deny it, even if he doubted its relationship, crumbles. The last ones left were Gastons and others who were extremely honest with their desires.
Of course, that's not the only voice that goes up.
"You would admit your surroundings, but the three of us... That's great."
"Kuhaha. Oh, come on!
Gayne, who herself has two lovers, Mira and Spica, and Jade, who sees Aria and the others only as mere companions of Gin, bless Gin together.
"Ha. Mr. Jin should accept all of them. Good for you, guys."
"Hey, say it sooner. I haven't heard that much progress has been made."
"Wow, have I been crossed? That was a good lead."
Corona, who had Gin and the others archaic with Chris in the Wang capital, was thriving in love bana with Aria and the others in the city of Tron, and Mira, who is familiar with the progress of each other's love, speaks to Aria and the others who dye their cheeks on Gin's side, respectively.
"... I'll do my best"
In such a sad corner of the stage, Zach, who has been thinking about Mary since he met the Jins, had omitted himself.
- I would add that after this, you can see Jin getting screwed up from the end, but there were a relatively small number of people who participated in it.
"" "You're too jealous, damn it!
That voice rang all the way outside the store, or didn't it?
