The picturesque rice cakes are delicious today

Episode 4: Forest Festival * 3

I'm sorry to see the relationship between those two, it's a good thing that people love each other, it's a complicated feeling of embarrassment that makes me feel so happy for some reason, and so on, and I go back.

I couldn't find the trash can, but when I was thinking and walking around holding the trash, a friendly stall man said, "I'll throw it away!'. Thank you very much.

Then when I was walking while thinking further, the person in the stall who was stuck in the shop said, "If you want to sell the rest, go ahead!"and separated confectionery and rice. Thank you very much.

As I walk further and further, my luggage keeps growing...

"... it's too late."

"I got a little lost, I went too far and came back, or I was caught by a lot of people....."

Well, I can tell from what happened.

Laocles helped me by picking up a pile of food and beverages that filled my hands. [M]Great. Now my hands are free...

"Why do you eat so much?"

"Well, I'm going to eat some of it and bring it back to the birds as a souvenir if I can't eat it."

I wondered if birds would come out of the woods at this time, but it seems that they decided not to come out of the woods today, and it is not particularly noticeable in town.That's why I'm not supposed to be eating festive food, so I thought I could take a souvenir with me.

"I see. Well, I'm glad you're loved all over town."

Yeah, that's right. Loved...

... well, it reminds me of what I saw earlier.Well, Mr. Mersen, to Mr. Interlia....

"What's wrong... hmm? My face is red. I don't think so. Drink."

"Nah, it's nothing!"

I shook away the scene that I remembered.Somehow, somehow, I don't want to tell Laocles... no, I don't want to tell anyone!I want to, but I don't want to!

"Do you want to drink so much?"

"Chi, no."

It seems that Laocles is somehow making a strange mistake against me. [M]No, I'm not drinking!My face is red because, uh, it's a little hot!

We finish our defenses and we eat the food we've been given.There was something like fried fruit in there again, so it would be delicious.I like this one.

"... Laoclesu"

"What is it?"

And then I thought about Mersen and Interlia again, and somehow I felt lonely, and I called them.

"Nothing in particular."

I see.

"Yeah."

... it's kind of weird.What are you doing more than feeling lonely?Hmm, that's the first time I've seen it, so it seems like you're a little upset... Self-analysis terminated.

Well, it's okay.It would be great if the sons of men could love each other and be happy.Yeah, I know. Um, so, while I'm sure Laocles doesn't know, I think that Mersen and Interlia are kind of lonely for Laocles...

"I really want Laocles to be happy..."

"... I think I'm happy enough."

Yeah....

No, I feel like I've been choosing the wrong word for a while.Yeah, I'm upset.What do we do?

... when I was worried, Laocles peeked into my face... and said...

"... would you like a drink?"

"I'm not drinking!"

I see.

Laocles started stroking my head again, saying something he didn't understand. [M]Um...

... maybe this Laocles is drunk?No, you're definitely drunk.Somehow, there were about three empty ceramic cups lined up.I've been stroking my head all this time...

I wonder if people want to stroke someone's head when they drink alcohol... Hmm...

Full of hunger, we decided to go back to the woods.But before that, I decided to stop by the fairy confectionery store, and I went there.

"I'm full."

"Well, that's all I need to eat."

Yeah, I'm going to eat more than I expected.The power of the gift is amazing.

"And for some reason, I'm feeling a little better."

Then, is your body kind of light, sleepless, or healthy?I wonder. Could it be a recoil freed from speech tension?

... if that's what you think.

"Sure. You're the one being festived at this festival anyway."

... eh.

Ah, that's it...? Because I'm being festivaled as a spirit, that's what makes me feel better now...?

"... I've never been celebrated like this before."

"Hahaha, I guess!"

Laocles laughs with a lot of fun.I knew this Laocles would get drunk. The laughter is louder than usual and it's a bit fresh.So it's fresh for Laocles to laugh so much.

... we were walking together, but I was embarrassed when I walked while looking at the rare Laocles or remembered what I saw earlier, so... I guess I was a little careless forward.

When I realized it, there was a fine gold embroidered garment in front of me, and I thought, oh. When it hits,

"Hey, Corn!"

"Wow."

However, just before I bumped into someone, I was pulled in by Laocles and I was able to avoid him without bumping into him.I'm glad...

"Sorry, I was careless."

I apologize to the person I was about to bump into.... the opponent was clearly dressed as a nobleman.Fine gold embroidered clothes, gold bracelets and gold rings.I wear a lot of gold accessories to make it feel a little messy and noisy.Yes, nobleman, in any case.

At first, he looked at me disgusting, but in just a few seconds he changed his expression and made me smile.

"Oh, no, absolutely not. I was just about to hurt the Mayor."

Hey, Mayor... If you call me that, I'm kind of nervous... yeah.

"If you injure a spiritual cousin, you will buy the anger of the spirits.No, I'm glad you're okay. "

No, no, I'm not mad at you this much... okay.

"I am Lord of the Golden Realm.My name is Honiole Gorda Aune. Best regards. "

"Ah, this is Corgo Uesora."

Introduce yourself and bow down to each other, convincing them that this person is from the Golda realm.That's what Faye and the others told me.It must be a land of lots of gold.That's why I'm dressed like this in gold...

"No, it's a wonderful festival.There are a lot of rare foods and crafts here!I can see the Mayor's skill.You must have had a hard time developing the city. "

"Um...."

No, I didn't do anything...I'm a little embarrassed to be praised for not doing anything.

... and the Lord of Golda noticed that I was in a bit of a hurry to change the subject.Take a look around...

"... that knight?"

Yes, I was asked.

The Lord of Golda's gaze is on Laocles.I mean, above my head.

And when I looked up at Laocles... Laocles looked down on the Lord of Golda, feeling a little nervous with his drunken face.

"He is my escort, the one who takes care of me, the model of the painting. Look, Laocles."

I thought I'd have to say something, and yes, I'll say it either way.Then Laocles looked at me calmly and then smiled a little hard and said, "Oh yeah."

"The Spirit loves him so much... what is he?"

"Oh, no. I thought you were bringing a fine knight...."

The lord of Golda misled something by saying so a little sooner.Looking at Laocles in flickers while making a smiling face.

"... corn"

"Yeah, it's time to go. Uh, well, excuse me."

Laocles gently followed me and thought it would be better if I retired, so I decided to cut the conversation off quickly.It became a little unnatural to cut, but I couldn't help it.

"Yes, thank you for your continued support."

We decided to leave the scene as soon as we met with the lord of Golda.

... I kind of hated it.

Walk silently with Laocles, walk... before you get to the fairy confectionery store, but I think it's better to listen to this, so I stop.

"Hey, Laocles."

"... ahh"

I look up at Laocles with that awkward, nervous expression, and I... even if I don't have to ask, I somehow know what I know.

"The Golden Realm is the original workplace of Laocles, right?"

... to my question, Laocles nodded in silence, just with a bitter face.
