The plain and unnoticed me is no more

117. Rain begging ritual

In the carriage on the move, Sandra, who was eating baked confectionery and fruit from the town on the way, said that she was tired of traveling in this carriage, and had a huge sigh on her mind.

"Hah... Evo, haven't you arrived yet? I didn't think it was this far when I saw it on the map. Maybe you went out of the country by mistake?

"No, this country is very large. If it goes well, they will arrive after noon. Do you need another break? But you can't reach your destination for as long as you're just resting."

"I got it. Let's get you out of here. If I go, the village will certainly be festive. Ufufu. Even the town on the way was so welcoming. I'm looking forward to it."

Sandra, who did not understand what she was going to do for, was carelessly in a mood thanks to the euphoria of leaving King's Landing for the first time in a long time and the generous hospitality in each town and village.

Even with such astonishment, Evo quietly embarrassed himself without showing it to his face.

"... don't expect that from the village you're going to."

"Ufufu, you idiot, even if we can't expect it, we're going to have a welcome dinner. It won't compare to what we did in King's Landing anyway. It's only natural that this beautiful Virgin, whom the King has recognized, will make you rain."

Five days had already passed since the party of the Virgin who had gone to the rainbow begging ceremony left King's Landing.

Though it was a stopover to the town or village to stay on the way, Sandra got tired of the carriage journey and went shopping in a big town that she didn't plan to stop by, wasting more than a full day on what was originally a four-day journey.

All the people of the land who had been informed in advance welcomed the Virgin and greatly delighted Sandra with the best possible hospitality. And it was not a banquet to welcome the Virgin, but a dry land with little food to entertain visitors, and farmers who burned in the sun.

Although the land was originally a rich wheat region, it has suffered from a chronic water shortage since one year, leaving only a few reservoirs with reservoirs of water.

"What are you doing here? It feels painful and unpleasant. You know I'm coming, and you're not ready for the banquet yet."

"I can't help it. We've come here to help them, so don't think about entertaining them. Our goal is to deliver their immediate food and medicine and to make it rain at the Virgin's begging ceremony."

While Sandra was being briefed by Evo, the other witches were preparing for the ceremony in a fast-paced fashion, without worrying about the tiredness of the journey.

There is no need to stay on this land for long.

The longer we stay, the less food we bring them. The soldiers brought in for the escort arrived at the security guard at a certain distance from Sandra, and Evo rented a room in the village chief's house and dressed Sandra in a ritual costume.

It is specially made for Sandra and is a bespoke item with a more luxurious and glorious decoration than the dancing witches.

But this was completed a month ago. I've tried it on, but I haven't worn my sleeves since Sandra's victims were rescued by Lana.

Sandra spent all her time on the move in her witch clothes, sleeping in a carriage except for staying at the inn, so she didn't realize that her tingling and style continued to fade.

"Ah... that? Holy Virgin, you're a little tight around the torso...? That's weird. It was perfect when I first tried it on... but I don't think I've changed my body shape."

Evo, who was closing the button on his back, first noticed that Sandra was slightly fatter while wearing it.

While wearing loosely designed witch clothes, I didn't know the difference, but it was Sandra's hope that she changed the design to make the waist constriction look beautiful.

"Oh, my God! It's not my fault! Evo was mean enough to hide all the mirrors, so he couldn't check his whole body! That's why I left a big mirror in the room! Besides, is that your fault? You didn't leave a mirror where you were going."

"That's because the Virgin cared too much about her face and body shape. You are too imprisoned for your appearance. I don't have to worry so much....."

"Shut up! Women don't make sense unless they're beautiful. Let the people in this house have the mirror now!

"I refuse. If you really want a mirror, think about it after the ceremony has succeeded. Look, if you tie the belt at the end like this, you won't notice that the size has changed."

As a bitter measure, I wrongly wrapped a band about ten centimeters wide, originally tied around the hip bone, around the narrowest constriction.

Evo's words inspired Sandra suddenly to take a breath and pull her stomach in, causing Evo to hold the button.

"It's raining so fast, there's no village like this! Evo, don't forget, I'll definitely get you a mirror."

If you come to the ceremony in this state and dance the rain beggar dance, the buttons on your back will pop and fly quickly with just a little carelessness.

Sandra had no doubt that this confidence would come from a successful rainbow begging that she had never tried before.

"Virgin, the ritual is ready. Remember how it works? In action, please dedicate this liquor to the earth."

I know. Let's get this over with.

The middle-aged witch leading the ceremony handed Sandra a white magnetic jar of liquor, and the ceremony started quickly.

When one witch clapped her hand and carved the rhythm in front of the torch, the other began to sing a song in ancient language that she was unfamiliar with.

Sandra dedicates fine wine to the earth as a gift to God, and surrounds her as other witches dance and draw a circle. Unfortunately, Sandra raises an empty urn to heaven and begs for a rain dance in Solo.

Sandra, who believed that rain clouds would come as soon as the Virgin started begging for rain, was anxious that no cloud would flow into the clear blue sky, even after 20 minutes.

"Not yet? I'm tired."

When she complained to the middle-aged witch who was watching the ritual, the witch smiled and nodded.

"It's just getting started. The ritual will continue until the rain clouds arrive. Good luck showing the Virgin the truth."

This was the norm for the witches who performed this ritual every year. Sometimes you keep dancing in shifts without sleeping for days, and eventually you withdraw without calling the clouds.

The participants in the ceremony did not doubt that the addition of the Virgin would make the ceremony perfect.

At that time, something flew out of Sandra's back with great momentum. Buttons.

The buttons, which were forced to hold, couldn't stand Sandra's movements and flew away with some of them.

Ah!

In the middle of the ceremony, Sandra stopped moving and started crawling with one hand behind her back to check for buttons. The middle-aged witch watched her voice roughly.

"What are you doing! Does anyone throw a ritual halfway through? Continue dancing without worrying about the fraying of your costume! How serious are you!

"Excuse me? I told you, let me show you, I mean it!

Sandra, who hates losing, has a better way of treating him than spoiling him. The veteran witch, who had seen a lot of people, understood Sandra's personality as soon as possible and quickly motivated her.

Sandra continued to dance with confusion and withstood the weight of the white magnetic jar for an hour, shivering her pull and arm. No one saw it, but the dark mist was clear from Sandra, and the filth of her soul was temporarily wiped out.

When Sandra was supporting her late family, she was more of a daughter who worked hard to protect her pride than her family.

Evo, who was watching this from the side, saw Sandra concentrating on the dance and showing her a clear expression, and felt beautiful for the first time.

Depressed that this was supposed to be the case with the Virgin, he just spoiled her and decided to rethink how to deal with her.
