Umi to Kaze no Oukoku

After hastily mailing, the Cadofer headed north on the kingdom of Iran and made it to the Hedge Kingdom in good order.

"It's kind of a sad country..."

Even Rosina, dressed in a fur coat in the cold, is not very interested in the Hedge Kingdom landscape seen from the boat.

"I can only see goats. Can't you see the house, or maybe people don't live there?

the grass among the gothic rocks. During the winter and during the day the grazing goats were eating beetles, but it also gives a chilly atmosphere because it is a grass that can only be seen to be dead rather than green.

"Do I have to stop by here?"

Captain Lessa, rarely foolish, talks melancholy without bothering to stop by a country like the only one with goats.

"Well, maybe we'll build a shipyard here. Look, there are trees growing in that mountain. Besides, the port of the Hedge Kingdom doesn't freeze even in winter..."

Even if I try to give it a good side, I just see more and more gray clouds and cold landscapes, and it makes me depressed.

"Finish your errands with Sassa and let's go to the Kingdom of Laurent. If you're looking at a landscape like this, the tension will go down. What about Rosina? Do you want to go to the embassy and take a break?

I cared for Rosina, who was disabled on the voyage, but I thought a little and I would pass, and I would go back to the cabin with the samurai. Shaw flaunts his shoulder that just looking at this landscape makes everyone depressed. I think I'll go to the Kingdom of Sassa and Laurent.

Captain Lessa agrees, and as soon as he gives King Lutos a letter from King Aslan, he orders Captain Clayshaw to give him a ride to the Embassy to Sands to supply a little water and food while he is away, trying to sail away.

"Is this the capital?

The hedge to avoid the sea breeze is creepy and creepy bent, and the landscape buildings that just pile up stones are short, and only the smoke rising from the protruding chimney from the sky can be seen as a sign that people live there.

"That's the embassy."

If Captain Lessa hadn't told me, I wouldn't have thought of it as an embassy from above, and I'd be surprised at a building slightly larger than the rest of the private houses.

"It's kind of a primitive..."

Landing in the embassy's front yard, Shaw asks if there is an ambassador to the puffer, as the escort came out of a small box in surprise. Shaw worries that Shaw will be all right in the haste of an escort who didn't expect people to visit her while she leads her to the embassy.

Unlike the bareness outside, the interior of the embassy has green plants arranged here and there in an effort to create a southeastern island-like atmosphere, and Shaw is relieved. Ambassador Puffer will show you Shaw and Captain Lessa in front of the fireplace.

"Prince Shaw, welcome to the Hedge Kingdom. But the sea breeze would have been cold if winter had come."

Shaw tells King Lutos that he has received a letter from his father and instructs Ambassador Puffer to arrange a meeting because he is in a hurry to the Kingdom of Laurent.

"I'm not going to arrange an interview. Nobody goes outside in the winter, so you'll be in front of the royal palace fireplace. If you're in a hurry, let's go now."

While making the carriage ready, Shaw asks for dozens of goats for Hassan and Radic's wedding celebration.

Ambassador Puffer shone his face, and he undertook to leave it to me. Without people, the incident is unlikely to happen and I wonder if I would have had time to be rude.

But the incident also seemed to be happening in such an idle hedge kingdom that King Lutos complained as soon as he approached the royal palace that the pirates were going to catch and steal the goats.

Shaw has been told that, and his eyes pat.

"The Navy of the Southeast Islands is skipping, so I wonder if the pirate ships are rushing this far! I want you to pay for the goats the pirates stole."

Shaw doesn't deal with completely unfounded stories. Besides, the fire in the royal palace was only burning shoboshovo as the queasy King Lutos deserved, and if Ambassador Pufume hadn't advised me not to take my coat off even in the royal palace, I would have had a cold, so I just quit.

On his return carriage, he asks if the pirates steal the goats.

"Well, pirates will steal goats, too, but goats are sticky if they do, so they won't get caught that way. Some of the pirates are also mixed with farmers from the Kingdom of Laurent and from the Hedge Kingdom, so they caught and ate the goats."

"Nevertheless, why did you seek compensation from our country?

Ambassador Puffer says, laughing, because Prince Shaw showed his face.

"Anyone is good, so you wanted to make it pay. You'll tell the next diplomat. It's free to say. I'm glad you didn't have to deal with him, because if you get into an argument, you can't go home until dinner. The queasy King Lutos doesn't like to serve dinner, so he'll be back in the evening."

Shaw and Captain Lessa flaunt their shoulders. If you're in a hurry, I can't entertain you at the banquet. Shaw feels sorry for Ambassador Puffer all this time.

Because this is all Shaw has, I recall that he promised to get a souvenir of the incense of the goats and, speaking of which, feed the goats to Sands. Ambassador Puffer liked the price, but he wasn't an asshole, so he gave Sands the goat meat he had at the embassy.

"It's true! It's salty and delicious ~. I'd love to feed it to the cillin too. '

As Sands cared for the older Cyrin, Shaw returned to the Cadfell with the goat meat as a souvenir from Ambassador Puffeu. Shirin was smaller than Sands because he was not a dragon rider, but Sands is kind to him because he is the oldest dragon living.

Shirin spent more than a hundred years as the only surviving dragon in the village of Gorza without interacting with any other dragon, so the young Sands couldn't help but be cute. Originally, the dragon was very pleased with its kindness as Sands brought home the goat meat of the hedge kingdom on top of what was sweet about the young dragon.

Cyrin is going to bond once Pipps gets used to the dragon a little more and adapts to his new life. And when you become a dragon rider and your body matures, you want to make a sands and a child dragon.

I was eating a delicious cow with fat on it in the Kingdom of Iran, but it's like a snack about a little salty goat meat, so I eat peroli, and Shirin dreams of a cute little dragon as she leans in with Sands.
